Followed by the second one We don't neglect our sake activities even when we are busy ❗️😁 First brand series in a long time! Autumn Sake by "Beian Daikoku" 🍶. Is this true of autumn sake as a whole? The aroma is mild and quiet. The taste is... As expected, it is refreshing 😋. It's so generic that it ends up being unimpressive and described as 'normal' 😅.

Tonight we will open a bottle of "Nanamizu" to celebrate the 700 CI of J&N's Sake-no-wa Pisen. In celebration of J&N's 700 CI, we will open a bottle of "Nanamizu" which is still in our house 😋. I had a little bit of a crack 😅. Unlike the last Omachi, it had a stronger wine taste as described 😋. I've been drinking a lot of low-alcohol winey or champagne-like sake lately, so this was another tasty one 😍. Tochigi 😱. You are too high specs 🤣. Thank you for the food 🙏🙏.

At my first liquor store Bought this book to compare with the best sommelier's evaluation in Japan for the 2nd Sake Diploma exam. The book is a few years old, so the ingredients in it may have changed... Cold sake. Aroma of white peach fruit and minerals Gentle umami on the palate. Sweetness and acidity are well balanced in the aftertaste.

Taking advantage of this skipping stone holiday, I went to "Oise-san" to get ready for my family's recent tradition. I went to "Ise-san", which has become a regular event in my family recently. I wanted to feel again the atmosphere and freshness that I felt when I went there for the first time... I was surprised to find out that my wife and I felt the same way when we happened to talk about Oise-san in our conversation 😱. So we decided to make it a once-a-year event. So, enough preamble... The first thing we had after getting ready to go home was... The first 🍶😊 at Mikotsuru Kinmon Nishiki. The reason being... we just didn't have nearly enough sake in stock😅. I'll have it right away. The aroma is...hmm💦 mild😊. The usual fruity sensation is weak 🙂 and the taste is clean and refreshing The taste is also refreshing 😋. A little bit sweet (that's what I'm choosing ⁉️🤣), but this one I feel like it's just the right balance 😍. I rinsed out the empty bottle and realized... It was bottle heated 🤣🤣.

I got my wish...Yamadanishiki by Mikotsuru. I got it and I'm going to enjoy it right away. The aroma is...mature and fruity, which raises my expectations even more: ⤴️ I couldn't wait to take a sip 😋😋. It's so good! Just the right amount of sweetness, sourness and bitterness. It's a bit complex, but it goes down your throat nicely and smoothly. Really yummy! Really good! This is Mikotsuru's best (probably 💦). I'm on a mission to get some sake rice that I haven't had yet 🤣.

It's been a while since I've been to "Saku" 🍶. I have not had a chance to bring you this wine for a long time, but I wanted to drink it after a long time. I will open the bottle right away 😋. Hmmm ❗️ the aroma is so fruity 🥰I won't betray you with any kind 😊. As for the taste... It glides in smoothly. Smooth😋. Slightly more alcoholic than my usual crop 😅. But it's delicious at different temperatures 😋. The second day, it seems to be more mellow. This one is more to my liking 🥰.

Thank you for participating in the kurabiraki 🙏1️⃣ 2️⃣ The last of the 12 YASUBAE First Choice bottles was this one from Imi Sake. It is said to be hard to find, but you can get one or two bottles a month at a local liquor store 😇. Actually, Pon-chan told me before that she had never had this sake before, so I decided to use it as the last sake for the closing ceremony😇.

Thank you for participating in the brewery opening 🙏 2️⃣ Hanamup is another staple sake in our house 😀. Kaorin once said in front of a store owner at an outing, "I prefer my student's Hanayuup to my teacher's Jyushiyo" 😇. Well, I guess it's a matter of taste 🤣. We are able to have a stable supply of Hanamup thanks to the fact that there is a store near our house that sells it consistently 😇. This is a matter of my preference, but among Hanamaru's many different sake rice varieties, I personally like this one the best 😀. This time I served it second because it was completely my favorite 😀.

Following yesterday's Machida Shuzo Nigori, today we had a Jungin Sumi Sake from the same Machida Shuzo 😇. I wish we could have had the same Miyamanishiki nigori and sumi sake or the same Tokujun nigori and sumi sake for the sake comparison 🤣. I'm quite jealous of my friend Nao888 who compared Miyamanishiki nigori and sumi-shu 😀. That said, the comparison was quite enjoyable as well 😀. As you can imagine, it had a core but also fruity and clear taste 😀. We are nigori enthusiasts who love nigori, and considering the rice flavor and sweetness, we liked the nigori better in our house, although only slightly 😀.

We just opened a bottle of our staple sake... Akita Sake Komachi's Nama Sake 😀. Up until now, we've had all of Hanayuup's sake in 1 sho bottle, but this is the first time we're having it in a Yongou bottle 🤣. I read on Sake-no-wa that everyone was happy with Hanamaru's Shogou bottles, so I bought a Shogou bottle to try it out 🤣. However, we love Hanamup-san in our house, and if you have room in your sake cellar, you might be happy with a 1.5 liter bottle 🤣. Hanamamu-san is consistently delicious😇. This weekend, the Osaka Japanese Sake Festival will be held in Bentenmachi, Osaka on Saturday and Sunday, and I will be there as a volunteer staff 😇. I really wanted to be a sake brewery staff member pouring sake for everyone, but I ended up being a guide for both days 🤣. I will be hanging around the venue both days wearing a sake taster T-shirt, so if you come to the venue and see someone wearing a sake taster T-shirt, please say "Yasubeyesan" to him 😇.

I have successfully completed the 100th Nigorinpic 😀. Here's a look at the sake stocker and all that's left is clear sake, so I'm going to give it a while before restarting 😇. Today's sake to be opened is a collaboration between Kabishin-san from Okayama and my neighbor Kinoshita Meishu-shuten 😀. The person in charge from the brewery happened to be at Kinoshita when I visited the store, so I tasted it and then bought it! 😇 This sake, as the name suggests, has muscat in the front 🤣. With an alcohol content of 8 percent, it was an interesting sake with a low alcohol content and a strong image of muscat 😇. I will be opening the clear sakes in my house one after another for a while from now on😇

Summer Nigorinpik 86 Continuing from yesterday, we had summer nigori, Hatada ⭐️ squash against the Ramune label 😀. Actually, this sake is from a brewery we visited last year on a tour organized by Kyukura on the day of the Shiga brewery opening, but we couldn't bring it home due to the limited number of bottles 😀. The sake is made by second fermentation in the bottle from re-fermented mash that is squeezed in a wooden vat🤣. It tasted like... an adult banana squash 😇. Yesterday's Ramune Label was a transparent sake, but this one was a fruity squash with a sweet and sour banana taste... delicious 😇.

Spring Nigorinpic 78 Last year, I had the 1st and 2nd Urasato's light nigori at different times and was surprised by the toji's ability to make each one different and delicious 🤣. So this year, I decided to compare the 1st and 2nd Urasato's Usu-Nigori at the same time and kept the 1st one in my sake cellar waiting for the 2nd one to come out, but for some reason, the store where I usually buy Urasato's Usu-Nigori did not stock the 2nd one this year 😅. I finally missed the chance to drink it and have dragged it all the way here, but this time I'll just have the 1st 😅. It's still the same as last year, but it has the same firm sweet/easy taste and sharp finish 😇. But I'm sorry I couldn't drink the 2nd one this year because the 2nd one was more to my taste preference last year 🥲.

Third day of Golden Week holidays Yesterday's mountain climbing was very hard on my body, and today, Kaorin and I have sore muscles in our legs from this morning🤣. I guess you can't win against age 🤣. So today we took our usual walking course to the old Expo Park 😀. Today at the Expo Park, they are holding a food and beer festival with local specialties from all over Japan 😇. So today we got our food and beer locally 😀. But I made sure to bring my own sake 😇. Today's accompaniment was a visit to a local liquor store where Kabishin was having a tasting event 😀. This liquor store regularly holds tasting events for Jamishin 😀. It seems I happened to be at the second tasting in a row, following the last one, so they remembered me and gave me this as a freebie 😇. I usually buy only Junmai type, so this was my first time to try Kabishin's Asoe and they did a good job of adjusting the taste 😇. I think it is a very reasonable sake since they gave it to me as an omake, but if so, it is a very cosy sake 😀.

On the way, we had our lunch with drinks on the banks of Katsura River while looking at Watatsuki Bridge😇. Today's accompaniment was Junmai Daiginjo Yamada Nishiki by Hanamura 😇. I'm a big fan of Hanamup's sake, and I choose Hanamup every time I check in to 400 check-ins 😀. This time we walked a bit early to see the cherry blossoms, so it was an early appearance with a check-in of 599 🤣. 600 check-in will be going with that thing🙆.

Good evening, chika 😀 That's right 😇 It's impossible to go through all those delicious looking drinks 🤣. If I can't buy it, I have to stop looking 😅.

Good evening, Nao888! I have to say that Hanamup's unique, sweet and fruity sake that flows beautifully is addictive 😇. It's hard not to buy sake when you visit the brewery and see the hard work that went into making it 🤣.

Good evening, Pekho-san 😀 I also like winter/spring version of sake like Nama-sake and Nigori-sake, so my cellar and fridge are the tightest at this time of the year 😅. Sake that is fired at this time of year is in the closet because the cellar and fridge are full 😅.

Good evening, shinsaku3! I always envy shinsaku 3's wide range of choice of sake 😇 My husband and I drink only sweet and tasty sake and 600 is not much different from what we usually drink 🤣.

Good evening, Koizo-san 😀 Recently, Sagano area is full of inbound visitors, so it's not so elegant to have a meal by the river 😅. 600 is the last thing I'm thinking of 🤣.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀 Our family can stay pretty happy with walking and sake 🤣. Next Saturday, we've already decided where we're going to walk and what we're going to drink... a beautiful park with beautiful cherry blossoms and Tochigi love sake 😇.

Hi Yasube, 🐦. Kyoto, so many 🌸 are already in bloom ✨Hanamup junodai for hanami, isn't it the best 💕I see you have prepared a different sake, though it is a Kiri number sake enough! I wonder if it's about time? I'm looking forward to it!

Good evening, Pon-chan 😀 The average cherry blossoms in Kyoto were only half bloomed, but sometimes we were surprised to see cherry blossoms in full bloom 😇. I chose Hanamup for the cherry blossom viewing mood, but when I looked closer, I saw that it was 599 check-in 🤣.

Following last week, I walked to the Expo Park again this week to see how the plums are doing 😀. They are still a step away from being in full bloom, but they are looking much prettier than last week 😀 The weather was nice and the profile of the Tower of the Sun seen through the plum blossoms is also quite beautiful 😀. The weather was nice, and the profile of the Tower of the Sun seen through the plum blossoms is also quite beautiful 😇. The sake to go with today's bento is a new sake from Shinshin-san in Okayama, 2024 Houjoukunen no Houjou Katsumatsuri. Compared to the fruity sake I usually like to drink, this sake is a bit drier and has a beautiful yet robust flavor the moment you put it in your mouth 😀 But you can also taste the sweetness at the end. But at the end, you can taste the sweetness and it finishes nicely 😇. The weather and scenery were great, and we had a great time with delicious sake 😇. And I was able to walk well 🚶.

Hi Yasbay 😃. Another healthy post today ☺️ Plum trees are almost in full bloom ❣️ and your bento looks 🍱 delicious 😋 I remember Shinshin was a bit dry for me too. It's really ideal to exercise well and drink good sake 🥰.

Good evening, Yasube-san 🌛It's nice to open a lunch box and have a drink at the Expo 🍶I went to the plum grove in Osaka Castle Park, but it was one step away from being in full bloom. ☺️ It's nice to taste a slightly sweet sake that is also dry ✨️

Good morning, HinaHanaMama 😀 I can't drink sake without walking and muscle training because I tend to gain weight easily 🤣. I can train hard to drink good sake 😀.

Good morning, Nao888! I work next to Osaka Castle, so I sometimes walk through it on my way to and from work 😀. From now on, the cherry blossoms from the plum blossoms will add more fun to my commuting time😇🌸.

If you think about it, I've only had 2 bottles of clear sake at home since the beginning of the year, Shinshu Kamerei and Hanamamu 🤣. I had no time to drink clear sake because of the Nigorinpik 😅. Moreover, I'm a poor person and I don't dare to drink hard-to-find sake, so the stock in my sake cellar is very unbalanced😅. I'm perfectly fine with nigori sake still being in the cellar for my tastes, but I'd like to suspend the nigorinpic for a while and continue with the clear sake to balance the sake cellar😇. First, we opened the bottle from Izumi, which had been stored in the cellar for almost a year 😇. Pouring it into the glass, it has a beautiful yellow-green color 😀. The taste is heavy and solid in the mouth, but it is not too strong and spreads beautifully 😇. I can only say that the taste of Imi is just as good as it should be 😇 I'm going to stop drinking Nigorinpik for a while and try Sumisake 😇.

Yasbaye's cellar is very exciting 🥰I'm looking forward to more 👏👏.

Hi Yasbay 😃 Even though I've reached 35 bottles, I'm sure there will be more niggles to come 😄I'll have to drink a lot to adjust my inventory and make it a spent bottle by the time I'm done 😅... 😆.

Good evening Chika 😀. Thanks 🙇. I'm a small person, so I just display hard-to-find liquors unless I get a push 😅.

Good evening, Ao 😀. Thanks for the push 🙏. I still have about 20 bottles of nigori left, but before that we will do a hard-to-find sake drinking contest 🤣.

Good evening, Pekho-san 😀 I'm going to open a few bottles of sake that I lost the timing to open and have only been looking at through the glass of my sake cellar 🤣.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀 I'm afraid a new nigori will arrive before I finish the current nigori, so I'll carry some of the rest over to the spring nigorinpik 🤣. For now, I'll be opening the remaining stock of clear sake for about a week 😅.

Yasbay. Still 20 bottles 😭 Are you poor? 🤣🤣

Hi Yasbaye 🐦. I thought it's been a while since I've had a clear sake, but it's a rare sake😆I see you've also had a bottle of Imi sitting in your cellar ✨It's aged for a year now and looks delicious😻. I see you bought 55 bottles of nigori 😳that's 6 months worth of sake for me 🤣.
Japanese>English

Ao, good morning 😀 I'm poor enough to display hard-to-find sake without drinking it because I don't know when I'll get it next 🤣. I don't feel like nigori sake is decreasing because I somehow get another nigori sake selection as much as I drank 🤣.
Japanese>English
ヤスベェ
Good morning, Pon-chan 😀 We received 35 bottles of nigori selected sake, and as much as we drank, another nigori selected sake is being called for addition 🤣. Next time we drink at home, we will open a bottle of sake that has been lying in bed for more than half a year😇.
