The rice flavor is so rich, this is the perfect sake for warming up.
It was a San-in style sake with a punch.

The second drink was the retro in the middle.
This one was probably the mildest of the two 🤔.
The acidity was relatively mild and it was easy to drink. 🙆♂️
My favorite among the 3 types including the modern is this retro!

Excuse my comment! I like the Sentori drinking comparison! I didn't know what I was getting myself into, so I just bought the modern one... I haven't drank it yet... but I wanted to compare the drinks anyway!

Thanks for your comment, Honihoni 😊.
I also bought only the modern at first, but the modern was also delicious 🍶.
I think there are still a lot of sake bars that do Edo-style drinking comparisons, so I recommend it 😆.

The last sake at Unagidani will be the first sake from the brewery.
It was Sekiya Brewery's Houraisen no Sora.
We chose this sake that we had been curious about since we saw it at Sakegawa.
I will have it right away.
First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong.
When you put it in your mouth, you will be hit with sweetness and bitterness, but the sweetness is very beautiful and delicious.
The sweetness and bitterness shake your brain.
It is just definitely delicious.
As I continue drinking, I think that this sweetness is quite my favorite.
And it is not only sweet, but also has a good balance of bitter and spicy.
I would like to drink it at home someday.
Now, after this, I would like to go to a liquor store to feast my eyes.

Good evening ma-ki-😃.
I was on a one-day business trip yesterday and Osaka was a no-brainer 🥲.

The second drink at Unagidani-san was Tazake Junmai Ginjo Yamahai by Nishida Shuzo-ten.
Tasake is another sake that you don't come across very often, so we went ahead and had it.
First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a bitter taste from the beginning to the end.
Then, a fresh and beautiful sweetness takes over and disappears, followed by a gradation of lingering spiciness.
It is also delicious.
After all, the mouthfeel is overwhelmingly beautiful and smooth.
As the temperature rises, the bitterness is suppressed, and the sweetness and spiciness increase, which is also good.

Today I am visiting Unagidani in Shinsaibashi for drinking alone.
I have been wanting to go there once and finally did.
The style is to choose and order from a large refrigerator.
Since I was there, I ordered a Cosmos label from Shinmasa Sake Brewery's COLORS, which I have never had before.
So, let's have it right away.
First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma.
In the mouth, citrusy grapefruit-like sweetness and astringency~.
It is already too delicious.
It was like a quintessential Niimasa.
The acidity is also present, and the sake is truly refreshing and tasty from start to finish.
It is the best for lunchtime drinking.
Japanese>English

Hi ma-ki-, 😃I like the one-person drinking Niimasa ❣️ 👍Is there a big fridge with a lot of different kinds of sake? Sounds like a fun place 😆The cosmos is also excellent 😍It's going to be hard to choose which sake to drink next to the Shinsei 😅.
Japanese>English

Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama.
The website seems to have about 100 different kinds in the fridge ⤴️
I would like to drink only Shinsei, but I will have several kinds 🎵.
Shinsei's first COLORS were delicious!

This is "Unagidani" in Shinsaibashi.
It was my first time to go there, but the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice and I felt safe drinking there 🍶.
I would like to go there again when I go to Osaka 😊.
I'd like to go back when I go to Osaka 😊 I've seen a lot of sake but missed out on red Mimuro cedar 😄.
Sake rice is 100% Watafune-2 (short-stalked Watafune)
The color is clear.
The aroma is melon-like sweetness.
The taste is watermelon🍉 type sweetness. In addition, there is a little umami.
The taste is refreshing.
The ginjo aroma is also very sweet.
The entry was clean, but the aftertaste and lingering aroma made me think it was made by Mimuro cedar 😊.

This is "Unagidani" in Shinsaibashi.
I thought it would be a shame to come to Osaka and not drink Osaka sake....
I looked for a bottle but there is no Osaka sake. Bad timing I guess 😅.
Then I asked for unagi (eel) 😄
The color is clear.
Smell is sweet and sour.
Taste is green apple 🍏, strong sourness.
The taste is slightly carbonated.
The aftertaste is astringent.
The ginjo aroma is strong, with a hint of sourness.
It has a good sharpness.
The brand name has style, but it is well-balanced with a modern atmosphere, making it an easy drinking sake 🍶.

Hi Hiro 🐦.

Since I was in the Kansai area, I went to a restaurant that I knew from Sake-no-wa and was curious about.
It is "Unagidani" in Shinsaibashi.
The style is to select sake from a line of sake bottles in the refrigerator.
This style is exciting to see the sake bottles standing in a row 😆.
Here is the sake.
The color is clear.
The aroma is not taken.
Taste is thin and sweet. It has a pleasant sweetness of green apple type 🍏.
It has a very slight carbonation through the throat.
The aftertaste is sweet and has a ginjo aroma.
It is a light sake that can be drunk as a summer sake.

The petit off-line meeting with the four of us welcoming Mr. Jive to Osaka was finally the last one.
We all searched for the last sake and decided on No.6 R-type, which seemed to be open-flavored!
We enjoyed comparing the sake and regretted our last moments.
The first one.
The appearance is silver crystal.
The aroma is fresh muscat and plum with a hint of gas.
Upon drinking, from the gentle gas stimulation, sweetness and acidity reminiscent of fresh and cool apricots and plums spread smoothly, flowing lushly and sharply.
The finish is medium, with a slight bitter astringent tightness.
On the palate, both the aroma and the taste are vivid, with a strong impression of saturation and sharpness.
On the first and second days after opening, the taste is calm without a sense of gas, and the sweetness and acidity are easy to perceive, giving a sense of balance.
Maru seemed to like this one 😁.
The party ended with a vow to meet again in Sakai.
For various reasons, I have not disclosed my real name or job, but I can only express my gratitude for being so openly accepted into everyone's drinking circle.
Thank you so much, Jive, Umaisan and Maru-san 🙇😊.

We welcomed Jive-san to Osaka for a petit off-line party with Umaisan, Maru-san and myself.
Part 5: Heated sake for the extravaganza: ☠️🔥🍶
We shared the heated sake that Jive-san requested 🍶.
This sake is from Ryoseki Sake Brewery in Akita, which brews Hana Yuu, Suitama, Yukigetsukana, Ryoseki, and others.
It is a Flame of Skull exclusively for heated sake. ☠️🔥
By the way, the blue bottle is junmai ginjo and the red bottle is special junmai, so this is the junmai ginjo.
It came out in a tin chirori, but I forgot to take a picture of that one😅.
The aroma is rich like freshly cooked rice mixed with a hint of fragrance 🌾.
I can feel a very faint remnant of a beautiful ginjo-like aroma at the back of it.
The taste is very smooth, with a sense of sweetness and acidity that flows in a calm and well-balanced manner.
It is said to be aged at low temperatures for heating before shipping, so there are no sharp edges even when heated, and it has a nice sense of calmness and cohesiveness.
The party, which had been enjoyable as we sipped sake and talked slowly, was almost over.
The party was almost over, and we were ready for the last sake.
