At first it was quite properly gassy. It is a very good balance because it does not interfere with the flavor and can be enjoyed. The liquor store I saw the day before yesterday also had it, and as expected, I did not buy it in succession, but I wish I had.
Miyazumi of Miyazumi is famous for its 寫楽. Since we are the ones carrying the sign, there is no reason why it can't be good. Why is it famous for 寫楽? I drink it with the image of 寫楽 in my mind. It's like 寫楽, with a strong strength and a lightness at the same time. Is 寫楽 similar to Miyazumi, or is Miyazumi similar to 寫楽? What is the difference? It would be interesting to learn more about these things.
There is no bitterness or acidity, only sweetness and umami. It is monotonous, but I personally like the taste so much that I never get tired of drinking it. How about the sharpness? It may not be very good, but I would like to drink it all the time, just like autumn.
Kame no Kai - Yuyake Koyake
Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Hi-ire
I was attracted by the sunset orange 🧡 label.
I was attracted to it!
It's still a hot 🥵 day.
I don't think "Yuyake Koyake" is suitable for me,
In the old days, late August might have felt more like autumn😅.
Muscat flavor and very easy to drink
It's also fresh and doesn't feel like it's been fire-roasted.
I drink it in gulps at the end of a hot day 😆.
I like it with octopus vinegar, octopus 🐙 and bonito tataki.
and bonito tataki, etc.
The third one is a recent iridocumulus cloud ☁️
I love the clouds ☁️
It's going to rain a lot after this.
It's nice to have less rain ☔️

Good evening, Harry 😃.
It seems like it's still very hot in September 🥵It sure seems like in the past the season changed after Obon 🤔 Looking back, we drank here last October! Maybe it will be cooler by then 😌.
Jaynobi, really, the sense of seasons has changed a lot. When I was a kid, summer used to be cooled by evening thunderstorms ⚡️⛈️. Sake is in autumn pattern🍂, but in reality, autumn might be gone😅.
Pon, one bottle might be a bit hard to find,
I hope to meet you in a 4-gou bottle!
I have a self-proclaimed fetish for clouds ☁️, I especially love the iridocumulus clouds, which are hard to see these days, and the autumnal scaly clouds are nice too, I'd love to drink while watching them 🍶.
Harry-san konban-ha!
It's still hot, but it's autumn in the liquor store fridge 🍁🍂.
I went to the liquor store for the first time in a while today and was surprised💦.
I couldn't get the Kame no Umi, but I got a bottle of the Murasakuchu Hiyadoroshi!
Eririn, long time no see. Yes, it's already autumn on the calendar, but this heat is so hot that it's a problem 😅 I'm worried that sake breweries are having a hard time because of the poor rice harvest and the new sake brewing season.
Nice hiyaoroshi of purple air 👍
The carbonation was so strong that I almost spurted out. I almost gushed out after a long time, so I rushed to close the cap. I wonder if this carbonation is added afterwards. It is completely cider when it gets this far. The taste is delicious, just like rice wine. Slightly sweet. It's interesting, but it's a bit of a waste, I feel like the carbonation is getting in the way of the flavor. But it's interesting, so I keep drinking it.
The umami is one of the most robust impressions of Sake Mirai I have ever had. Is this smooth umami in a Junmai Daiginjo with Sake Mirai only possible with the sake brewing process? The aroma is rather subdued and elegant. It is elegant, has a strong umami, and is refreshing and delicious. This kind of sake is wonderful, regardless of what your taste is.
Time goes back to 🗓️4 month!
Ocarina-san raised Abechan💚 and raved about how delicious it was, and I almost opened the door to summer 😆 It was well received at Sake no Wa, and I've been wanting to drink it ever since 🎵.
So when I went on a business trip to Tokyo at the end of April to attend a F2F meeting first thing in the afternoon, I arrived at Tokyo station before noon and planned to have a light lunch before going to the head office 🤔.
However, I couldn't find it at the liquor stores in my neighborhood, so I decided to visit the liquor stores in Tokyo and look for Abe-chan💚 rather than having lunch here 🤔 ❗️
I walked around several shops quickly 💦 just in time to run out of time⏱️ and finally found him at Inamaya Ginza 🥹.
We had to wait for about 2 months before we could open the bottle 🤗.
I was scared to open the bottle.
The two of us were excited to see the bubbles on the sake cup!
Okay...let's express the flavor of the sake! Let's express the flavor well for a change!
The first aroma is...
Woohoo😳Yummmm!
I knew I couldn't do it 😅.
But it's not too sweet, but has a good balance of umami, acidity, and a slight bitterness that comes at the end.
I learned from Chidorisoku's post that Raku-fu-mai has different degrees in different tank lots! Ours was 2.
As you warned us ⚠️, it was gone in no time at all 😆.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby: ☀️
I'm so glad you got the Abe-chan💚, it's twice as delicious to open the bottle after putting it away for 2 months😍It's just as you highly rated it! I'd like to drink it 😆😆.
Hi Jay & Nobby, Hi ⛅️ I'm sure the moment you searched for it and found it was a gut-punching moment 😆 ⁈Abechan is often seen at Sake no Wa but I haven't experienced it yet 🥲I'm speechless, I want to taste it 🥰.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
I worked so hard to get it 💚 and the taste was so good that I waited 2 months to drink it ❗️ and it still comes up in conversation 😆.
Hi Jive 😃.
Glad you understand😊.
Yes, I am glad you understand 😃! I can't always put it into words, all I can say is delicious 😋😅 Sometimes I want to write cool tasting rice 😆.
Good evening, Mr. Galilan 😃.
The moment I found it, I gasped and popped my guts out inside 😊I drank it and all I can say is 💚 it's delicious 😆 Please give it a try 👋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby.
You were a spirited get after giving up your lunch 😊.
Yummmm, it was worth all the hard work you put in with the sake 🎵.
It's a highly regarded sake at Sake no Wa and I'd love to try it sometime ✨.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby, ☀️
It was worth the trouble to get it: 💕︎
This Abbey was one of the most shockingly delicious things I've had this year 🤣🤣🤣.
Hi ma-ki-😃
It was more sake rice in the evening than white rice at lunch 😆.
It was mecha delicious Abe-chan 💚 as you rated Sake no Wa 😌 ❗️ I hope we can meet one day 😌.
Hi T.KISO 😃
It was even more delicious because we had to work hard to get it 😊It was a shock to us too and we were all talking about Abuchan 💚 for a few days 😆.
Hi Rafa papa 😃
I'm trying to express myself in a cool, poetic way like you do 😅 but in the end, woohoo 😳 yummy 😍 is what my heart is saying 😆 glad you get the message 🤗.
Good evening, kozo-san 😃
I guess it's the unpretentious voice from the heart that gets through. ☺️ "woohoo 😳ummmm 😍" I might be saying that a lot from now on 😆.
I'm really! Thanks for the good encounter 😁.
Tomorrow is finally the long-awaited 6/6, so we opened this bottle the day before to thank the No. 6 yeast!
Respect for Kaze no Mori ALPHA6 No. 6
This is the yeast No. 6 that Aburanaga Sake Brewery, which brews Kaze no Mori, acquired from Shinmasa Sake Brewery, where the brewery has been promoted, and the yeast No. 6 that was used in the brewing of Kaze no Mori.
This bottle is made from 66% polished Akitsuho sake rice, which is the main rice used in Kaze no Mori.
This year's omake dock tag is decorated with a [flax cat], because this year they are using white malted rice just like the flax cat!
Its taste is very much to my liking!
When you put it in your mouth, it has a fizzy, bubbly taste that is typical of Kaze no Mori, a mineral taste of ultra-hard water, and a sweet flavor that extends from there that reminds you of the No. 6 yeast!
This one was so delicious that I almost finished another bottle!
Tomorrow is the first day of the Shinsei event on 6/6, so I'm going to drink it with all my might!
Rice polishing ratio: 66% (100% Akitsuho from Nara Prefecture)
Alcohol content: 14%.
Purchased at a liquor store in a 4-glass bottle and drank with an oinokuchi.
The texture is smooth, the color is clear, and a gorgeous ginjo aroma rises to the top.
In the mouth, the fruity aroma and sweetness spread to the palate, and the taste is fresh and juicy due to the fact that it is a pure sake. The five tastes are well balanced, with a spiciness that emerges in the latter half of the bottle, giving it a strong presence and a surprisingly sharp taste.
The overall impression is of a modern sake that plays a leading role.
Since it was made immediately after production, there are high expectations for changes in flavor after opening the bottle.
Sake rice: 100% Aiyama, 55 polished
Degree of alcohol content: 16% to less than 17
Manufactured: May 29, 2023
On the day of the release, I went there two hours after it opened, and it was sold out. I was so desperate that I managed to get it.
It was so fragrant. A wonderful aroma of melon, muscat, and cemedine. And of course, it had that shwashy, gassy feeling.
The sweetness is subdued and the acidity is dominant. But it is not sour! But there is no sourness.
The acidity is short-lived and finishes with a gentle astringency.
Definitely one of the top 10 wines of the season. Excellent.
Mr. DISRY Good evening ^ ^
I was curious to see Manachie's review, but I didn't realize it was one of the top 10 this season: ☺️
I should have bought it😭
Good morning, disry 😃
I had given up because I couldn't find it anywhere, but Manachie told me it was sold at Mashidaya and I was able to buy it 🙌I read your review and I'm looking forward to drinking it more and more 😆.
Good morning Manta 🌞.
I know you all rave about it 😃.
I too took a sip and was surprised at how delicious it was 🤩.
Next year it will be a battle... 😏.
Good morning, disry😃This is very tasty...I think you are right to get excited and buy it. ☺️ I think it will be one of the most fought over bottle next year like other Senkou seasonal sake 👍.
The aroma is somewhat gorgeous. In the mouth, it has a sweet, chili-chili-chili flavor and a minerality that is typical of Kaze no Mori. The bitterness is moderate, perhaps because it is picked without pressure. It is delicious.
Muscat aroma. In the mouth, it is clear and refreshing with a gentle sweetness and fruity acidity. You can taste the umami of the rice, and the aftertaste is refreshing. It is delicious. I like Matsu no Tsukasa.
🕺🕺🕺🕺
Welcome to the first time Tanaka: ❣️
I heard they have a bubble sparkling,
This is the one this time.
The font is graceful and cool 😊.
Easy to drink sake with just the right amount of acidity 🍶.
It is perfect for a mealtime drink!
I was walking in a strong wind today, but my body was light,
I walked while feeling like I was going to be blown away😅.
Spring storm or ⁉️
The cherry blossoms flew away so fast😅

Good evening Harry😊.
It was very windy today in both Saitama and Tokyo 🌪😅.
Tanaka Rokuugo, with its well-balanced acidity and smooth mouthfeel, it is very attractive as a food sake, isn't it?
Harry, good evening ^ ^
Tanaka Rokugo's font is so cool ✨.
I personally want to drink Mitsui no Kotobuki and Tanaka Rokuugo by the end of this year ✌️
Perfect for a mealtime drink, good 👍.
Hiraccio-san, good morning.
It was really windy and I was surprised I didn't get blown away because I had sake with me 😅 I'll be looking forward to your visit to the izakaya 🏮.
Good evening, Harry 🌇.
Congratulations on your first Tanaka㊗️🎊🎉.
You'll be attracted by the font ❗️
And you'll be even more fascinated by what's inside 🤗.
Good morning, Chichi 😃.
I finally got to meet Fukuoka's number 1, Mr. Tanaka 😊It was one of those bottles that you can't seem to meet!
I'd like to drink something even different: ❗️
I managed to get a bottle of Abe Pink, which I missed out on last year, just in time this year.
The aroma is capricious, but it has a sweeter nuance than apple or pineapple, maybe even pear-like. The gasiness is perfect.
Sweetness is strong. As per the 6th generation Abe Brewery's Twitter. But the acidity is also very strong, so it's not too sweet.
While you feel the acidity, the umami comes in quickly and finishes with a light astringent taste. There is almost no bitterness and it is very easy to drink. The lingering lactic acidity is even better.
It was worth the wait. It goes great with scallion butter. Best when paired with a thicker side dish.
A light Koei Kiku! It is a clear sake with acidity. I also thought the taste was not like Koueikiku. The rice used is 100% Kame-no-o. I have had other Kame-no-o sake, but my honest impression is that this one is quite easy to drink, although the nuance is similar. The flavor changes as the temperature rises, and the umami comes out! The alcohol content is high at 17ºC.
As it approaches room temperature, a bit of astringency also appears. It is quite an interesting sake. I liked it better after a few days, when the umami flavor was more pronounced.
The bottle itself is more like champagne than sake.
The bubbles are strong. I paired it with seared shishamo and komai as a snack, and it was a perfect match.
It is a must to finish the bottle.
