ジョンスミス大佐
The second birthplace
I was not as impressed as before...
I was impressed by the fruity taste from the rice, but it was not dry enough for Japanese food, so I guess TPO is important for everything.

ジョンスミス大佐
I've been slow to post lately, so I'm posting right away today.
In a word, calm.
I think I understand what someone wrote about it having no personality.
It has a strong sweetness, but it is elegant.
In fact, it has a strong core.

Ryusei桃ラベル 純米吟醸無濾過生原酒
ジョンスミス大佐
Bought it because of the glamour of the label.
I remember it being contemporary, but...
I have to write my impressions right away, I haven't grown since my summer vacation picture diary.

Brought it to a Golden Week BBQ as a topic of conversation. It was well received by the ladies. It was also good by myself.

At a certain tavern in Shin-Osaka.
I didn't know I could drink here.
The taste is as expected of Niimasa. But I thought it would go well with fish, but it was surprisingly good with white wine.

Fusano Kankiku愛山50 RedDiamond 純米大吟醸
ジョンスミス大佐
Cold chrysanthemum after a long time for a special occasion.
Rich fruity, as expected. Heavy.
Maybe it's because I've been drinking a lot of this kind of delicious sake lately, but I don't feel special... ⤵️
But it's good. I like it a little more refreshing.

Kamonishiki荷札酒 黄水仙 純米大吟醸
ジョンスミス大佐
Floral nectar juice microbubbly!
Elegantly sweet, but I wonder if it's syrupy like someone said.
A trendy sake flavor, if you can call it trendy. I'd like to see other packing tags in stock.

Izumofuji純米吟醸 春ノ赤ラベル しぼりたて生原酒
ジョンスミス大佐
Shimane instead of going to Tottori
I was attracted by the Haruno Red Label and bought it.
It's a good price! It has the right amount of sake flavor and gorgeousness, which is nice because I wasn't expecting it.

Mimurosugi華きゅん 純米吟醸 無濾過生原酒 おりがらみ
ジョンスミス大佐
Gorgeous from the name.
I imagine it's a little fizzy and grainy.
It's delicious and the sweetness is elegant, but its fizziness is a bit divergent, which is a bit disappointing. It has the feel of sparkling wine, not champagne. The origami is nice and not too thick.

At a farewell party for a colleague
A bottle of Jyushidai cost 1,400 yen!
That's cheap!
That's why I had it.
It was the second time in my life that I had had a bottle of Jyushiyo since I had a pairing at a certain restaurant in Kyoto. It was as I expected. It went down so smoothly. What an elegant sweetness and taste. It was amazingly delicious.

Today is my daughter's graduation ceremony.
We chose this bottle from the seven we had bought for a glamorous sake for a glamorous day.
First, we opened the bottle.
No blowout at all, probably because it had been sitting calmly in the refrigerator. Oh, no, it was not what I expected.
The taste was as expected. It is gorgeous and easy to drink. It could be a little more profound, but the balance is good. You can get drunk easily.
Sweetness, acidity and rice fruity. I wonder what is unique about it.

Zaku新酒 純米大吟醸 2023BY
ジョンスミス大佐
It is very good.
I couldn't help comparing it to the Jikin I drank the other day. It was like a small Jikin. It has fruity, bitter, and sweet tastes. It is very easy to drink, though. It is a little expensive in terms of price.

Jikon特別純米 生 2023
ジョンスミス大佐
First Jikin!
I finished it in 2 days.
It was a special one because something good happened yesterday that marked a milestone.
It is an adult's Ramune that can be drunk without hesitation. It has a bitter taste, but it is pleasantly bitter and the sweetness is not too strong. It has a pleasant bitterness and not too much sweetness. This balance is as expected.
This time it is Junmai Nama, but I can't wait to see what it will be like when it is upgraded to a higher grade 😆 But it is not easy to get.
But it's not easy to find.

I'm a little overwhelmed with the pressure of work and I'm running away to drink.
This is the third in the Nigori-Series.
Mitsui no Kotobuki neve
A great blowout!
It is a muddiness of the richness of rice!
What is it?
No sourness, little sweetness, full-bodied and easy to drink.
Sake with a high rating from everyone means just that!
Wow!
I hope it goes well...

800NIGORI
ジョンスミス大佐
This winter, I thought I'd go for a "nigori" style.
So I bought this 800 NIGORI.
After I bought it, I realized it was made by Gyokusendo.
I had drunk Mukaze before.
And now this time.
My impression was that it was dry without sweetness even though it was nigori.
My personal preference is for sweetness.
I think I had such an impression when I drank Mukashi...
It was a nigori that did not interfere with the meal.
Japanese>English
ジョンスミス大佐
I like nigori sake.
So today we have Sanuki Cloudy, which is called juice rather than sake.
Why is Sanuki called "cloudy" and not "sunny"?
This is a yogurt juice made from rice.
When I was saying this, my child sniffed it and said, "Oh! I guess it's sake after all.
But I don't dislike the sweetness...

This is a sake from Miyazaki that I received as a Furusato tax payment.
The back of the bottle reads.
"Gorgeous aroma and refreshing taste.
is exactly what it says.
It's like a mildly gorgeous Japanese-style dress.
It is light and easy to drink.
If I may say so, I would like a little more acidity.
I had it cold, but I'll try heating it up tomorrow.

Daishinshu槽場詰め 純米大吟醸
ジョンスミス大佐
Nagano in a hurry!
Sake from Nagano, where I used to live with nostalgia. The Dai-Shinshu I've always wanted to drink.
Yum, yum, yum, yum.
This is really delicious.
The balance of cleanness and mellowness.
The balance of acidity and sweetness.
The balance between sake and non- sake.
It's more like a body blow than a one-shot punch, and it doesn't lose out to the richness of the meal.
It was a complete hit.
