The 🦀 after-party!
Leftover Osechi with accompaniments.
Homemade chestnut kinton, datemaki and kamaboko.
The sweetness is about the same as Gekkeikan, but you can feel the alcohol more strongly...
When you get this drunk, anything tastes good.
With crab 🦀.
I wanted something with more umami than sweetness, so I went for a junmai-shu rather than a ginjo...
It was sweeter than the Miyanoyuki I had earlier.
Sake is so difficult to make...
But it went well with the crab with ponzu (Japanese citrus juice)...
My family prepared it with homemade sushi.
Mellow and mellow texture? Flavor? It was delicious and balanced without being too sweet! My favorite!
The Mie sake I have had so far has been a little too sweet for my liking, but I like this one!
I don't think I like ginjo-style sweet sake, but this was sweet but delicious...
There was also strawberry sake and grape sake, which I enjoyed drinking as if they were juice.
At a chocolate shop 🍫 for a dessert course with sake and other alcohol pairings.
This was my first Shinmasa. It tastes like sake, but is easy to drink... and it's sweet because it's a kijo sake!
In addition to the opera in the picture, there was a wide selection of alcohol to pair with items such as chicken and Stollen, as well as wine and shochu in addition to sake.
Listening to the knowledge and savoring the food carefully, I could feel the creator's thoughtfulness and was very satisfied with the fresh style of the food.
I had a hard time finding a hit in.
Served with teppanyaki!
Light and refreshing, not bad, but I'm looking for the robust umami of the junmai sake I had the other day.
Perhaps I prefer junmai sake to ginjo.
This is the first of four bottles we tasted and selected!
I still feel some artificial flavors... I know there are no additives other than rice in the ingredients...
I tried it with spare ribs and avocado, but the impression didn't change much.
I thought it might taste good with food, but it wasn't my favorite.
Along with Yose-nabe 🍶.
Delicious!
Good flavor, not too sweet, more robust than light. It goes well with meals!
I think there is nothing better than this kind of combination of a legitimately delicious sake and a nabe dish...
It is absolutely delicious with oden.
I've heard that it's good heated up, but I tend to drink sake cold all the time. I should try it once in a while.
I wanted to savor it more, but I had to settle for 0.8 gos of sake...
It was my kind of sake that I don't mind the sweetness even if I drink it over and over 🙏.
With pickled horse mackerel and simmered taro chicken.
It is easy to drink! The sweetness is not too strong, and in a good sense, it goes well with food without being assertive.
When I drank wine the other day, I could drink it so easily that I ended up opening almost a whole bottle, and I couldn't believe how much I ate with my appetite and how hungover I was the next day.
On the other hand, sake is heavy in taste, for better or worse, so you can savor it as you sip and savor it, and you can naturally control the pace and volume of your drinking and eating. I was able to save the amount of sake I drank by drinking only a small amount (in my case, one gou), which may or may not make me feel tipsy.
Once again, I felt the goodness of sake 🙏.
Returned to my grandparents' house.
They prepared a feast and sake!
Stuffed peppers, croquettes, salted lemon spareribs, and cod roe.
Mie is famous for its delicious sake. An unexpected pleasure since I am a local 🥹.
Personally, I felt the aroma was more fruity and the taste was sweeter than the Sharaku I drank the other day. It's good as a food sake!
But as I drank more and more of it, I started to feel the sweetness more strongly. I can't drink enough of it, so I can't drink more and more of it as I drink more and more. It's delicious, though.
I think I prefer a less sweet sake that goes well with food.
I would like to find my own taste in this way.
I bought it to celebrate the fact that I had a little something on my shoulders. So I bought it at a well-managed liquor store instead of at the supermarket like I usually do.
I was attracted by the claim "fruity but suitable for food wine". As it says, it has a sweet and fruity aroma that passes through the nose, but the sweetness does not linger, and the taste is sharp and crisp, but the umami of the rice is still there. I honestly wondered what the "umami of rice" often referred to in sake is! I thought, "This is it! My tongue is happy, happy, happy.
The bitter gourd stir-fry, avocado and prosciutto ham salad, and potato and cheese galette on the menu all go well together, but they are also too delicious on their own, and I can't stop eating more...even though I have an early day tomorrow: ...... Someone stop me! ......
I'm not sure what it is, but the few I've had so far, I feel like my tongue gets dumber and sweeter with each drink, but this one, on the other hand, just keeps getting better and better... I think.
That's one of the reasons why I've been using the ♾️ loop.
I liked the different kind of sake like the Sanuki Kuraudai the other day, but the best sake is the one with a clear umami taste that goes well with a meal.
It was a bottle of sake that made me think once again how good sake is and how delicious it is.
2024.8.2 Today, a week later, I drank it again and found that the sweetness and alcoholiness had become harsher, and the umami had weakened.
I wondered if it tasted like this, and thought I could drink it more smoothly...
I wonder if there is a limit to how long it can be stored in a home refrigerator... Sake is innocent...
I found this sake introduced as a sake that goes well with Nanbanzuke (pickled horse mackerel), and as I am a big fan of Nanbanzuke (pickled horse mackerel), I was glued to it.
I have avoided sweet sake since I felt that Mio did not go well with it, but I could not suppress my desire to know more about it because of the good review that said, "The best marriage of the two sakes enhances each other's individuality and shows synergy" and "Both the dish and sake can be enjoyed as the leading role of the sake.
I couldn't resist the desire to find out more about it because of the good reviews. In the end, I ended up with swordfish and chicken in nanbanzuke because there was no horse mackerel.
The recipe says that it is made to go with chicken on the bone, and that it goes well with dark and spicy dishes such as curry, yakiniku, and mapo doufu. So, I paired it with mapo doufu as well.
As it turns out, I wasn't sure if it was a good match for both the nanbanzuke and the mapo-tofu...
But the sake itself was delicious and I liked it. The label is cute too. This is not a sweetness I don't like. Personally, I prefer to taste the sake by itself rather than with some food. This is definitely an adult Calpis. It's very sweet, but you can gobble it up. However, if you drink too much of it, the sweetness will hit you afterwards and you will feel a bit sick.
When it comes to matching it with food, I would probably go for a light, dry or umami type.
I was lured by the claim "mellow and delicious" and bought it.
It is true that this is a delicious wine...! It is delicious. It is delicious. It has a flavor peculiar to the addition of brewing alcohol, but I don't mind it that much.
I think I like it better than the ginjo type when I think about pairing it with a meal.
And what's more delicious is the cheese cod.
I think it is the best accompaniment for sake. It was a simple snack, but it went so well with the sake that I found myself drinking it without any water to wash it down and getting drunk. Even though I was drunk, one sip of sake made me crave for cheese cod, and one bite of cheese cod made me crave for more cheese cod.
I heard that cheese cod is delicious if you microwave it for a minute and a half, so I tried it. It goes well with sake.
As you get drunk, you will notice a banana-like fruity taste.
I drank with the results of the medical checkup that had just come back, which was a pointless way of drinking, but I enjoyed it because I like to look at these things. My liver function was all A.
I had always avoided drinking cuppa, but it was delicious.
I was pleasantly drunk, and it was a great treat.
A handsome mother's gift of Otter, which I've been looking forward to for my birthday celebration for a long time.
I lived for this this month.
When I opened the bottle, the first thing I noticed was that the aroma was exceptionally sweet and fruity... The Junmai Daiginjos I've had in the past were sweet and easy to drink, but the smell was like alcohol! The taste was still easy to drink and fruity....
But this one was sweet from the moment I opened the bottle... and the taste was still easy-drinking and fruity! I think it's the same as the aroma, but I think you can feel a little bit more alcohol when the bottle is just opened.
When you get drunk and become dulled by the aroma, the cool, watery aftertaste is pleasant and you can drink as much as you want...
It's so light when just opened, I wonder what it will be like after a day? I am looking forward to drinking it next time.
The first one is with teppan-yaki Matsusaka beef from my grandparents.
Second with chocolate from my brother, maybe because he's a handsome chocoholic, but it goes well with sake! Yum!
I'm happy to have a dinner full of things given to me by others.
Thank you very much.
I'm still exploring but I'm going to enjoy it at my own pace.
I am not sure if this is the right place to reply. Sorry if the notifications and such are not working.
Drinking in the daytime.
I wondered what a "Nakaguchi" would be like...
It had the same balance of sweetness and spiciness, but they did not cancel each other out, and yet it was easy to drink like water. I didn't feel the burning sensation of alcohol as much as I would have liked.
I have only recently learned about sake, so I am not sure if what I felt was right or not. If it tasted good, I guess that's all that matters.
