Timeline
flos_lingua_estWhile everyone is participating in the Nigori Ekiden, I am holding the "Nigori Ekiden" to make up for the disappointment my alma mater suffered in Hakone!
The first section of the race will be run by "Shira Kotobuki" again this year! It's so good for such a cheap price. 1,595 yen! Considering the recent high cost of living, I hope they can manage to keep the price at the same level next year, even though it is likely to go up to the 1,800 yen level or so. The price is getting higher and higher every year, and there are fewer and fewer sake that I want to buy...
Melon, banana, and lactic acid drink aroma...I feel like it has a banana milk feeling somehow.
It's sweet, but I don't get tired of it because the sweetness comes in a whiff at first, but it recedes quickly and unexpectedly. The sweetness lingers for a long time, but it is not bothersome because it is intertwined with the bitterness that appears in the middle. In fact, this intertwining gives it a sense of depth, and it is even enjoyable.
Since winter has come, we have been eating nabe (hot pot) all the time, but it has the depth of nostalgia to go well with Japanese nabe, chige nabe, soy milk nabe, and so on. Surprisingly, it also seems to go well with Italian food! It would be interesting to drink it with white sauce pasta or gratin...
It's a great runner-up for the sectional award! アラジンHi flos_lingua_est 😃
Nigori Ekiden🎽🏃➡️ sounds interesting ☺️
I think it would be like Hakone Ekiden, with 10 sections and 10 sake in the outward and return 🍶.
I'm really looking forward to seeing the runners after the second section and what will happen in the future 😊. flos_lingua_estGood evening, Aladdin 🌙
I'm glad it looked interesting! I have about 18 bottles of the candidate right now and I'm really wondering which one to drink first and how it will turn out 😂 lol. 湘南の漢I had not yet had a bottle of Hyakumangoku No Shiro Nama Sake,
I drank it as one of the last bottles for 24 years.
It is a really beautiful sake.
It is moderately sweet and slightly effervescent, just like the label on the back,
The words "clear" and "mineral" are perfect for this sake.
I paired it with fried food and sashimi,
but since it is low in alcohol and has the same taste as above, it can be enjoyed on its own.
I could also enjoy it on its own.
Yoshida Kura (Tedorigawa) never fails to deliver. 湘南の漢One of the last of 24 years,
Yuki's beauty for a long time.
The balance of sweetness and acidity is well balanced.
The sake has a good balance of sweetness and acidity, and there is a slight amount of gas, making it easy to drink.
The sake is also very smooth with a little bit of gas.
It is delicious.
Tonight I paired it with sushi and fried oysters.
It was great. ジェイ&ノビィHappy New Year, Shonan no Han-san🌅.
Yukimi, you are delicious 😋I wonder what you drank during the New Year's holidays 😋This is the beginning of the new year!
I look forward to working with you again this year: 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️ 湘南の漢Jay & Nobby, Happy New Year! We had some alcohol that had been laying around for the holiday season since late November or so, so we opened the bottle at the beginning of the year: ✌️ What did you drink at the end of the year and the beginning of the new year: ⁉️ Thank you for your time 🙇. たくのんThe last sake of 2012 was Shinshu Kamerei and New Year's Eve Soba 😀.
A faintly sweet and fruity aroma,
The sweet and fruity aroma, umami and gentle acidity make it refreshing.
As you drink it, the sweetness and the flavor of koji (malted rice) appear.
The aroma of the buckwheat noodles we ate together with it spread into our nostrils.
The aroma of the soba noodles we ate together with the sake filled our nostrils and enhanced the taste of the soba even more.
It was easy to drink and very tasty. It was easy to drink and very tasty 😋😋. ジェイ&ノビィHi Takunon-san 😃Happy New Year 🌅.
Shinshu Kamerei and soba noodles are a perfect combination: ‼️
Hitogokochi Junmai is really delicious 😋!
I look forward to working with you again this year: 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️ たくのんJay & Nobby, ㊗️ Happy New Year 🌄!
I drank Shinshu Kamerei for the first time and really enjoyed it 😋.
It's been a year since I got into the sake swamp, and I've learned a lot from Sake-no-wa: 🙇🏻♂️
I'm looking forward to working with you again this year. よいどれ♪🥂
It's been a while since I've had Tobiroki! It was delicious 😋. よいどれ♪🥂
This was my first time drinking this drink and it was delicious 😋. chikaJunmai Daiginjo is even better 😋. よいどれ♪Roger that 👌.
I'll drink it when I find it 😊 湘南の漢It was supposed to be opened at the end of the year and the beginning of the New Year,
But I couldn't resist and opened it when I went back to my parents' house.
It has a good balance of sweetness and acidity,
The second half is sharp, clean and crisp.
Yet, there is a strong lingering aftertaste,
It is still delicious.
It really goes well with food,
My father and I were raving about it.
My personal impression is that it is a classic sake with a modern edge. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Shonan Han 😃.
When it's oden🍢 at your parents' house, you'll want to drink it with people who know what they're doing 🤗I'd love to drink one of your rave reviews 😋. 湘南の漢Hi Jay & Nobby, ❗️
Neither my father nor I have become men of taste 🤣 lol but I'm glad I wanted to drink with people who like sake👌.
I want to get some great sake for New Year's ❗️ 山廃純米This is the first freshly squeezed raw sake from Zancho Horai. Because it is a tokuso-jun, the ginjo aroma is low. In the mouth, there is a light gasiness, followed by a nutty sweetness that is nothing short of delicious. The specs are as follows
Rice used: Chiba rice
Polishing ratio = 60
Sake meter = -3.0
Acidity = 2.0
(From Kamakura Yamadaya website)
After seeing the brewery's Instagram, I was right to go straight to the liquor store after work. So, a bottle from one of my favorite breweries in Kanagawa, Japan, was delicious. _.) _(. _.) 山廃純米Did you drink the new sake of a certain grape wine last week? I enjoyed it very much. So, here is a bottle for you this time. It's been a while since I've had one from Shizuoka, hasn't it? This time, it is from Kamizawagawa Sake Brewery, which has a brewery in Shimizu City (now Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City), the familiar place where Chibimaruko-chan was filmed. Although it is a junmai-daigin, the ginjo aroma is modest. However, its fruity sweetness is unique. The specs are as follows
Rice used: Yamadaho (for both koji and kake)
Polishing ratio = 50%.
Sake degree = +3.5
Acidity = 1.1
(From Sabun Sake Shop website)
The documents for the year-end adjustment were safely prepared, and we only had to submit the original documents. This time it was more like an after-dinner drink, but it could be enjoyed either as an after-dinner drink or on its own. _.) _(..._...) 湘南の漢The one I bought on impulse because I wanted to drink it.
The aroma is not that great.
The sweetness is moderate and the acidity and bitterness are well balanced,
It is a solid food sake.
It has a sharpness and the sweetness of rice,
The taste is stable.
It was a perfect match with sashimi. 阿佐波On my way back from my Shizuoka Sake Trip🍶🚗.
I googled a nice sake store in Atsugi💓.
It was my first time to visit Isojiman!
I had a chance encounter in Atsugi, not in my hometown Shizuoka 😂.
I found a bottle of special honjozo in the back of the fridge.
I brought home a bottle of special honjozo from the back of the fridge.
It's fruity and smells great!
So it's a honjozo?
It was a more elegant ginjo sake🍶 than I imagined!
I don't usually drink aluzoe, but,
Amazing ‼️ lightness and fruitiness ❣️
The refreshing sharpness of the alcohol makes the cup go down a treat!
Delicious 😍! ellieGood evening Asanami ^ ^.
Welcome to Shizuoka!
There are only a few liquor stores in the prefecture that carry Isojiman. It is regrettable that you had to go to Serizawa Sake Shop. In Numazu, you can find it at Nagashima Sake Shop. 阿佐波Good evening, ellie!
I am a repeat visitor to Shizuoka 😁I took the ropeway this time and it was a great ride. I'm sure it was a very nice trip, thank you very much. NAGASHIMA SAKE SHOP: ❗️ must take revenge next time 😆. ellieIt's not easy to find visitors to eastern Shizuoka, so I'm glad you're here 😆.
The view of Fuji from the Heki Terrace is great!
Numazu Sake and Nagashima
Take a peek at the installations at Isojumma will sell out soon 😓. 阿佐波ellie, I googled Nagashima Sake Shop 👍😊this was a near miss of a near miss 😆 I was driving very close! I'm looking forward to revisiting Numazu again, next time for sure ☝️ 阿佐波The installations are also very hot 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. 湘南の漢I bought this tree because I was curious about the label of this tree, cedar.
When you open the bottle, you can smell the aroma of the wooden vat.
It is sweet and sour on the palate,
The acidity is just right and there are no peculiarities.
You can drink it while feeling the aroma of wood,
And it is of Yamamoto's quality. It's just plain delicious.
It is also good with stir-fries and other dishes,
It is also good at high temperatures. 山廃純米How many bottles in total? Kano Yamamoto brewed in a wooden vat made from 200-year-old Akita cedar trees, and used Kyokai No. 1 yeast. The label is also made from a photo of the surface of the wooden vat (from the back of the bottle). (From the bottle label) Perhaps it was because it was right after drinking Aoyamori, but I didn't notice much of the characteristic acidity... and the specs are as follows
Rice used: Miyamanishiki
Rice polishing ratio = 70%.
Yeast used: Kyokai No. 1 yeast
Sake meter = +1
Acidity = 1.8
(From the Sabun Sake Shop website)
According to the website, this is a limited edition sake. It has a sake-like flavor with a certain rice flavor and sweetness. This is a famous sake brewery that is part of the NEXT5 (currently inactive). It would have been more interesting if it had a woody aroma like Kikumasa's barrel sake... Next time, I would like to try Nishida's summer-only Zenchidori (Utou) in Aomori. So, a bottle of one of the most prestigious sake representing the country of Hago, and it was delicious _(. _.) _ 湘南の漢I had never seen this brand of Kyushu sake before,
I just had to buy it.
The color is yellow, probably due to the fact that it is unfiltered,
The aroma is not so strong.
The taste of rice and acidity are present in the mouth,
It has a clean, tight, dry taste.
However, it is not a classic dry wine,
It has a soft impression and goes well with meals.
I paired it with fish and grilled chicken,
It was served both chilled and at room temperature, and both were delicious. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Shonan Han 😃.
It's always nice to win a jackpot 🤗.
Lately we've been liking the ones that go along with our meals😙Here's one that looks good too! 湘南の漢Hi Jay & Nobby!
I'm shocked when I get a hashtag,
I'm glad you won this time though 😃.
We're going to have a lot more to look forward to now that the weather is getting colder and we'll be serving more heated sake and other cozy drinks 😊. 湘南の漢I was curious about it,
I had been curious about it, but for some reason, I had not been able to get my hands on it.
Like a muscat on the palate.
It is cool and has a low acidity,
It has a cool, refreshing taste like muscat on the palate with little acidity and a tight finish.
It has gas and is easy to drink.
The overall impression is calm.
Is it because it is hiyaoroshidashi? Is it because it is hiyaoroshi?
It went well with the snacks,
It was a taste that can be repeated. 湘南の漢Mimuro Sugi Hiyoroshi, I have nothing but high expectations.
When the bottle is opened, it has a sweet but soothing aroma.
When you drink it, the sweetness reminds you of muscat.
The acidity and bitterness are well balanced.
It is not too sweet and does not leave a lingering taste in the mouth, making it easy to drink.
It goes well with rice and is delicious on its own.
It is truly delicious.
Mimuro Cedar is my recent favorite. 湘南の漢The first shot in September is Kangiku.
When the bottle is opened, it opens vigorously,
The sweet and fruity aroma already gave me a sense of anticipation.
It is rich and juicy,
The sweetness spreads in the mouth with a gassy feeling,
The sweetness spreads in the mouth and goes in without any clinginess.
You can drink as many glasses as you want.
The taste is also good after the next day because of the fire-roasting.
However, I would hate it if it becomes difficult to find it, because even if I find Kangiku recently, it is gone soon. のんだくれWhen I went back to Chigasaki in July, I dropped by Mochizuki Shoten.
The stable Kamo Nishiki and its delicious taste were perfect! 山廃純米It's September, the long month of autumn. It is the season of hiyaoroshi, so I took home a bottle of Kayasha hiyaoroshi that caught my eye while I was shopping. It was easy to drink, with a mouthfeel like tasake (rice wine).
And the specs are
Rice used: Yamadaho
Polishing ratio = 50-50
Sake meter = +2.8
Acidity = 1.5
(From the website of Okuhiroya, a local sake brewery)
Hiyoroshi in autumn, a modern one is good, but a good old brand is also good, isn't it? So, a bottle of Akita's prestigious brewery was delicious. _.) __(. _...) 湘南の漢Obon sake when I went back to my parents' house.
Shinshu Kamerei, which I have had for a long time.
I had nothing but high expectations.
When I opened the bottle, it had a gorgeous fruity aroma.
It has a very elegant taste with sweetness and acidity.
It has a gentle sweetness.
It is still delicious.
Recently,
I can understand why Shinshu Kamerei has been restricted for purchase recently,
I can understand why Shinshu Kamerei is becoming more and more difficult to obtain. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Shonan no Han 😃.
I can drink Shinshu Kamerei at my parents' Bon Festival! Everyone will be happy 🤗And there is a theory that Hitogokochi Junmai is the best Shinshu Kamerei 😄. 湘南の漢Hi Jay & Nobby, Good evening!
We were happy to hear that it's been a while since you got it 😊.
Indeed! Hitogokochi Junmai might be the best 😅. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
