The color is yellowish and the aroma is earthy sweet. When you drink it, you will feel the chewy sweetness and flavor. I wonder if glutinous rice is also used! It also looks delicious warmed up. It's a kan-tsu-sukurei, after all. I thought it would be good to warm it up, so I microwaved it afterwards to warm it up a bit. What was it like? It was delicious! You should try it! I'm sure that's what it was! Haz💦. This is Niida Honke, a sake from Fukushima that I bought as a souvenir from Ibaraki 🍶Jinenshin Eido, and I was curious about it. The brewer's yeast is good. ☺️ It's 3am 🌝 and that's it for today 🍶.

A melon-like ginjo aroma can be smelled once the bottle is opened. The mouthfeel is gassy and light in texture, with melon and green apple-like flavors, dry but with a long finish. Somehow, it also has a salty taste like the ocean. This is the second brand at my parents' house. This one was given to me by my cousin. Thank you very much.

This sake was released to focus on Sake Day! A gift from my uncle, served at my parents' house. I thought it was a 01, the one with no gasiness? I thought so, but it was a fresh, gassy, and current sake. It is a fresh sake like green apple. It was hard to find out, but I wondered if this was the first sake of the 25th year. It will help with the fatigue of a nighttime drive. ☺️

Another bottle bought at a supermarket in Kawagoe. I also bought a bottle that was not hiyaoroshi. After storing it in the fridge, I took a sip. The aroma is mild. The texture has a mild aroma, and the taste has a richness to it. It has a hint of sweetness like apple honey, and becomes dry and sharp. With only one cup of hiyaoroshi left, I thought to myself, "Yes, that's right! Sake tasting! The two are so alike that I can't tell 💦I can tell the difference in taste when I take a sip of air 💦This one has a big umami, and that one is not so different, but a little sweeter. This is hiyaoroshi. ‼️ Hazleyーー‼️ドーン💥 It's interesting and fun to see the difference in taste 😆 I'll be unfazed and diligent 🍶.

Family trip to Kawagoe. I bought a bottle of local sake at a supermarket. Melon-like aroma? Sweet like an apple? I'm not sure how to classify it, but it has a high 💦 aroma and a red fruit-like sweetness that expands and then quickly fades away without being unpleasant. Maybe it's because it's an autumn sake, but it also has a lingering umami taste that makes me want to eat something. ☺️ Kawagoe was a nice place. There are a lot of coffee shops and I want to go back again to relax. ☕️ It was peaceful but exciting. ☺️

Good evening, Nanka Yokai 😃. Kawagoe family trip! I like it 🤗Jay is the only one I've never been to 🥲It sounds like there are some good liquor stores and such! I'd love to go 🥹.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! We were enjoying our family vacation with a lot of waivering, but we also found some alone time and enjoyed it even more: ☺️ Yes, that's right! Not only did I find a coffee shop, but I also found a liquor store that I was interested in! I replaced the fourth picture with ❗️ which I didn't have time to upload! It was a morning walk, so I just admired the stores, but it seems that Sesazume Sake Shop has a corner shop, and Masuya Sake Shop has Coed beer only available in Kawagoe and a sake called Kagamiyama by a brewery in Kawagoe 🍶. Looking back at the photos, I feel indigestion 💦. During the daytime, it seems to be very busy with many tourists, but especially in the morning and at dusk, it seems to be very attractive. I'd like to live here for a week or so.

The taste is smooth and crisp. The aroma is also mild, but the ginjo aroma escapes the nose. Is it Gohyakumangoku? It is a different impression from the Hatsukame I drank before, but both have the impression of classical and beautiful sake!

Melon-like ginjo aroma. There is a bit of a tartness to the texture, and it kicks in with a gassy sensation. Later on, there is a tangy gasiness and a slight bitterness like grape skins. Yamada Nishiki, perhaps?

First sake of the year: ❗️ As the professional baseball world heats up to the climax in Japan and the U.S., the sake world is opening its season! I was lucky enough to get this on my way home from a drinking session on the road! What's the first sake to come out? As far as I know, it is this Fuji Taikan from last year. I immediately opened the bottle! Everything is fresh ✨From the bottle, I can smell the aromatic, melon-like ginjo aroma ☺️ The mouthfeel is an explosion of gas and fruity like melon and white grapes 💥I can also feel a hint of rice malt lingering in the air, which kind of makes me grin 😁. Thanks for the delicious sake 🙏🙏.

A toast with Tsukuba's sake at ❗️ event around Tsukuba station. I was given a bottle of Sutera, which I always love at the sake shop! Next to it was a Shizuku-shu ‼️ which I was somewhat intimidated by, so I opted for the Junmai Daiginjo. The fragrant banana-like fruity aroma wafting from the cup☺️ mouthfeel is sweet with an aroma that follows the fragrance and has a moderate lingering taste that is crisp and clean. It was a beautiful sake😍. I didn't bring my phone and didn't have any photos of the site, it was a mind shutter, but I am drunkenly commenting on it. I wish I had had the opportunity to compare drinking with Shizuku Sake, I wish I had grown up tall enough to do it, I reflected positively.

First time in Hikoichi! Is this a tasting of something called Oarai terroir? The flavor explosion of Tsuki no Ii did not disappoint, and somehow or other, it also seems to have the flavor of the sea breeze! Oooh! I can see the Pacific Ocean when I close my eyes! I'm also curious: ☺️ We had it for dinner with yellowtail sashimi and horse mackerel tataki from the supermarket 🍶. Flame Pillar I feel like Mr. Purgatory. Yum! Yum!"

Hiyoroshi from Kido! I'm curious! I was wondering what to drink with the other sakes. Yesterday, I kept it at room temperature, and it tasted gaseous and sharply acidic, followed by a gradual umami flavor. Today I chilled it in the fridge and the gaseous taste became a little milder, maybe because I let it sit for a day? The mouthfeel is also milder, and the umami and bitterness are more distinctive. I would drink it at the end of the season or at the end of summer with pickled cucumbers and big eggplants in the fall.

After the gaseous sensation, a beautiful melon-like ginjo aroma passes through the nose, and while there is a hint of sweetness, the taste is smooth and crisp. I thought the taste was modern, but also had the goodness of a beautiful old-fashioned sake. If I'm not careful, I'll drink up to 4 gobins lol.

Good morning, Nanka Yokai 😃. This is the second Masayo-san, isn't it? No, but we have Masayo-san in our house for the first time in a long time and we are looking forward to drinking it 😋.
Japanese>English
Nanka Yokai
Jay & Nobby, good evening! Masayo, last time I was here, I bought a test brew-like for the first time 💦 this time it's a regular brew 🍶. Jay & Nobby, you also bought it! That's a coincidence after Takachiyo! Looking forward to your post 😊. I'm grateful to have started a new business with a liquor store within walking distance ^_^. I just had my kids shuffle the two types of sake I poured, and Masayo and I had a Kido sake game 😆 It's fun to learn more about the characteristics of each than drinking them separately 😊.

I am completely addicted to fall sake today. This is my first sake, attracted by the cool label. Yukawa Sake Brewery, the closest sake brewery to the stars in Japan🌟Oh, nice ❗️ I wondered if it is a fire-aged autumn sake, can it be served at room temperature? So I opened the bottle when it was back to room temperature. I was surprised to see gas! I was surprised to see gas 🫢. The mouthfeel was also gassy, with a green apple-like flavor, sweetness, and umami. I wondered if it would be better to refrigerate the gassy one. I put it back in the fridge, but it was very tasty with a freshness followed by a lingering umami flavor 😋. The freshness was followed by a lingering umami flavor. I felt that the freshness became a hidden flavor. I felt that it would taste better at room temperature. I feel that it tastes better at room temperature, so I'll leave it in the autumn air again ^_^.

The evening news and a drink while watching Mr. Otani's great success. UNITE, which we drank around this time last year. The moment you put it in your mouth, it has a sweetness like beckoning, and then it kicks in refreshingly like a lime. Handsome Wild Thing: ⚾️ I remember that last year, the acidity was more pronounced, but I felt it was a different kind of deliciousness ^_^. All the luxurious sakes I got from La Jomon are now all sealed 🍶Taste it slowly.

Hi Nanka Yokai 😃 I'm sure Otani's success is the best food, isn't it? Just watching him makes my sake 🍶 go up 😄. Nice that you are going to Okuroku in your hometown Iwate👍.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! Okuroku in Iwate, the samurai on the label? (right hand typing w), I see Mr. Otani! I'm sure you'll get it 😊. Last year we had the same sake with Otani-san as our entrée 🍶. This is going to be a regular sake that I look forward to every year ⚾️

First, first turtle. A great adventure of aroma and taste in one sip! The aroma is a bright ginjo aroma. When you drink it, the sweetness and umami spread quickly, and the spiciness? A sinking, disinfecting feeling like ethanol? (It is not a negative, but I don't know the word...). What is interesting is the description of the yeast. It is said to be mainly isoamyl acetate, a home-cultured yeast. While it seems to somehow remind me of the flavor, I had no idea it was such an enjoyable sake! We met at La Jomon ✨They recommended this one to us first, and we liked it... (3 is not enough 😅)

LaJomon's PB sake 😆. The moment I opened the lid, the aroma was extraordinary! It tastes and smells like ripe red grapes that jump in with a fresh gasiness. It is unique on its own, and its flavor is a delicious autumn taste. It was described as earthy and juicy! Yes, this flavor goes bee-yummy with the taste of autumn. Yamagata's autumn delicacies: imoni (stewed potatoes), akebi (akebi), and akitogi (swordfish). It is great with any of them. Enjoy the taste of autumn! The price was extravagant, but the experience was well worth it! It was well worth it! When we arrived at the restaurant, Mr. Kumagai said to us, "You're lucky. ‼️ Jennenshin Eido, we're in! I was sure of what Mr. Kumagai said to me when I arrived at the restaurant, "You're in luck! It was an emotional experience. ‼️

Crisp, dry and crisp sake. It has a concentrated aftertaste with a nice umami flavor that remains, however! The melon-like ginjo aroma that escapes into the nose is also beautiful✨. We arrived at my parents' house in the middle of the night and had a cup of what we got 🍶. During the day, I visited one of the biggest coffee events of the year and was unexpectedly exhausted.

It has a fruity, fresh sweetness, followed by a juicy umami aftertaste. While summer sake may have snapped off like a firework, autumn sake leaves you with a lingering taste of deep umami. It is addictive to taste the deliciousness of autumn seasonal foods and autumn sake. Today we had it with our second fall fish of the season 🐟. Today's temperature was comfortable and I could feel that fall has arrived! I could feel it all day long. I want to chew the short and precious autumn 🍂.

The melon-like ginjo aroma and flavor were fully appreciated. It was great to drink with autumn eggplant and pickled winter melon! It also has a delicious aftertaste and gives the impression that you can enjoy the sake alone slowly 😊.
