The horse on the label is based on the famous horse, Symbol Rudolf.
It was a delicious sake with a sense of maturity, gentle mouthfeel, and depth.

This year is no longer a frosty month, and the Christmas🎄 lights in the city are soothing to the soul...
I recommend that those of you who will retire next spring, or are close to retiring, to reconfirm your future plans.
There are cases where you may be entitled to an additional pension, so I thought it would be a good idea to check your pension letter ^_^.
This Shigemasu has a low alcohol content of 11 degrees. It has a light wine-like taste, but it also has a strong acidity and is delicious ^_^I finished it while I was thinking about heating it up😄.

Good evening😄Sorry for the late reply🙇I saw this sake in a store and bought the label, I guess you could say. I was impressed by its low alcohol content but strong taste. I would like to drink it again if I have a chance 😋.

The sake had a fruity and robust flavor typical of Yamagata sake. It has a clear sake quality and if you do not restrain yourself, it is a gem that you will keep drinking forever.

It's finally autumn. The nabe season has finally arrived! It is the season of nabe (hot pot). Hiyayogoshi is very tasty at this time of year ^_^.
This is a junmai hiyaoroshi from Naraman.
The pear-like fruity aroma and the soft taste were the driving force behind the food.

Climate change seems to be having a great impact on sake rice as well, and it was reported that one brewery was unable to produce some brands. On the other hand, a new variety of sake rice called "Moeibuki" was announced in Hiroshima Prefecture to cope with global warming.
I wondered what kind of sake would be brewed and what more could be done to help prevent global warming.
It has been a long time since I have tasted Koei Kiku. It was a light, refreshing sake with a fruity aroma like lychee. It can be enjoyed on its own.

Many people are advised by their doctors or family members to quit drinking as they age. However, I think that cutting out the drinking lifestyle that we have enjoyed for so many years without any particular reason may be a breeding ground for stress and may be detrimental to our health.
I am afraid that giving up alcohol without any particular reason may become a breeding ground for stress and damage one's health. We should live the rest of our lives enjoying alcohol in moderation.
This time, I got a limited edition sake from Hankyu Takatsuki. The sake rice is called "Gin-no-sato" and is cultivated without using herbicides.
It was a clear, sweet sake with good acidity and a nice sharp taste.

Today on TV 📺 there was a report on the Sake Shinkansen 🚄. The plan was to enjoy 14 items of Niigata's Daiginjo-class Sake and a box lunch using Niigata's ingredients during the 2 hours and 30 minutes journey from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka. I was impressed by the expressions on everyone's faces.
This time we got Sagaminada from Kanagawa Prefecture.
It is a delicious Daigin-standard sake made from Miyamanishiki polished to 50%. It has a rich ginjo aroma and a refreshing taste. Very tasty 😋.

This is the first appearance of this brand at Takatsuki Hankyu, and it is one of the rare brands in the Kansai region.

This is a summer sake that creates a refreshing atmosphere; I have not had this brand for almost 30 years, so it has been a long time since I have had it.
It is said to be brewed with Hiroshima yeast. After opening the bottle, the fresh aroma spreads out and the light taste is mellow with a good sharpness. The alcohol content is only 14 degrees, so it is easy to drink.

I recently received a letter from a colleague who was surprised ‼️ at the high cost of long-term care insurance premiums deducted from her pension. In an aging society, insurance premiums will continue to rise. However, I am concerned about whether I will be able to receive the care that is worth it😟.
As for the sake, we were served junmai sake from Otegura. Ottegura gives a strong impression of packaged sake, but this is a special junmai sake made from Yamada-Nishiki. It was crisp and dry, but as the day went by, it became mellow and sweet. It was a fine sake that was easy to drink.

I have been receiving an old-age pension since this June, but about 15% of the face amount will be deducted for nursing care and health insurance, plus resident and income taxes.
I need to take this into consideration when thinking about my second life!
I wanted to drink Isoboast after a long time, so I went to Yamamoto Sake Brewery in Sanjo, Kyoto. Unfortunately, they only had special honjozo, but I took it home with me. I wanted to drink it with tuna, but I finished it before eating the tuna. The freshness after opening the bottle and the gentle sweetness as the day goes by! It is a typical Shizuoka sake.

I purchased this bottle because my sake brewery store points were about to expire.
Naruto Tai is a brewery known for brewing with rice produced in Tokushima, and this sake is brewed with rice specially grown near a stork's nest and polished flat.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this sake is donated to the Stork Conservation Fund.
When the bottle was opened, the fruity aroma spread and the taste was mellow and clear.

Finally, I will receive the regular old-age pension from the special allowance, but I cannot be happy about it because nursing care insurance premiums, income tax, etc. will be deducted from the face value of the pension.
We recommend that those who are going to apply for the pension do their research carefully.
Be especially careful about receiving deferred benefits! It is a good idea to be careful.
With this in mind, I enjoyed the popular Hakurakusei.
It is a well-balanced sake with a fruity aroma, soft and refreshing taste, and the umami of rice.

This is one of the bottles I purchased because I received an email from a liquor store that I buy online once or twice a year offering a "free shipping campaign". I'm glad for the free shipping: ☺️
Junmai-shu (Junmai-shu made from a traditional sake yeast yeast strain). You can enjoy the richness of the sake either cold or chilled, but it tastes best when heated.
You can feel the strength of this sake.
If you were to ask me, "What's a "nama yeast"? I wondered if I could answer easily. I wondered! Sake terminology is also difficult 😓.

The area around JR Saijo Station is home to many sake breweries, including Kamotsuru. The Saijo Sake Festival held every fall is well known.
This time I had a small bottle.
The taste was soft and gentle, with a hint of sweetness from the rice.
It was a gentle sake with a soft taste and sweet rice flavor. It is said to be "Nada's men's sake" and "Hiroshima's women's sake," and it is just like that.

The other night, I had dinner with a junior member of my current team. He doesn't drink, but he has heard from his friends that sake lingers until the next day.
I told him that it is not because of sake, but because of too much alcohol, whether it is beer or shochu. It's the same with beer and shochu! There is still a tendency to treat sake as a bad thing, isn't there?
So, this time, I found a small bottle of Tokigen by chance and tasted it. It was light on the palate with a refreshing aftertaste. It was a good choice for those who say "I don't like sake...".

I am concerned about my health condition when I drink every day, but when I look back on the results of my health checkups, there are no problems with my liver function or blood pressure 😇 and my body age is 15 years younger than my actual age! They say "sake is the best of all medicines", but depending on how you drink it, it can greatly improve your health 😄.
The sake that we opened at this point has a melon-like aroma, a sharp sharp taste, and a good flavor of rice! ^_^

It was originally released in 2012 to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the company's opening, but due to its popularity, the company decided to release it every year.
This time, it is the first in a series of different rice varieties and is brewed with Koshinoshizuku.
The specs are described as junmai even though it could be called jungin. It has a beautiful aroma, sweetness of rice, freshness and sharpness typical of nama-shu, and weight typical of nama-draft sake. It is highly drinkable and highly recommended at 2,860 yen (1.8L) including tax ^_^.

This bottle was brewed in Hiroshima Prefecture born in [the premonition of love].
It is a sake with a full flavor of rice. The freshness and sharpness are also perfect. However, when I first took a sip, it tasted like whiskey, so I had the impression that it might be a bit tough for those who like fruity and light drinks.
I feel that it is best suited for Japanese cuisine with rich, rich side dishes such as Doteyaki or broiled eel.
Last week, when I went to the Minase Shrine in Shimamoto Town, Osaka, to draw famous water, the weeping cherry trees were in full bloom. It is a soothing place♪
