Akita sake today😊.
Niimasa has a mild woody okegawa feel. Light sweetness and gentle acidity.

The last of GW is a long time in the making.
When I opened the bottle and poured it into a wine glass,
The aroma is sweet and elegant.
The sweetness spreads in the mouth and the bitterness gradually increases,
The sweetness is not left in the mouth, and the wine is refreshing. Delicious.
My brother, who recently drank Akabu and was shocked
My brother, who recently drank Akabu and was shocked by it, also seems to have a very high opinion of it.
The three of us drank a four-pack, but it was quickly consumed.
I wonder when the next holiday weekend will be...
I'm heading back to the battlefield (workplace) from today.

Looking for a classic sake that goes well with warmed sake,
I came across Shinkame.
I have had spring sake, but this was my first time to try this normal one.
When I opened the bottle, it had a unique and peculiar aroma.
When you drink it, it is a dry sake full of classic flavor.
When chilled, the peculiarity becomes stronger,
When warmed up, the peculiarity becomes weaker.
but it has a stronger, heavier flavor.
My father, who is a classic sake drinker, said he didn't like it.
I personally prefer the Spring Nama Sake, which is lighter
I also personally liked the Spring Nama-zake because it was lighter and had a sharpness that made it easier to drink with meals.

I just got home from the first half of the holiday wanderings and took a breather 😁.
Today's accompaniment is Koshi, which I haven't had in a while. The new label is new to me.
Slightly effervescent and fruity. It has a delicious flavor and a bitter aftertaste. Kouji is right in the middle of our family's tastes💕.

GW's first game opened with an unexpected new political acquisition.
When the bottle is opened, it has a gorgeous aroma reminiscent of wine.
The taste is really fine and delicate.
I have no power of expression, so I will just say it is really delicious!
It is a unique taste, a Shinsei taste.
The aroma of the wooden vat is also faintly perceptible,
I paired it with sashimi and liver. It's a good feeling.
My father, who had never tasted Shinsei before, was impressed with the taste.
I wanted to sip it slowly,
but we both finished it quickly. What a waste...

Hello, Eirin!
I had a hard time deciding between the two types.
But after consulting with the store owner, I decided on this one...
It's too bad it's too cold for the cherry blossoms to be in full bloom!
I'm watching TV at home while viewing the cherry blossoms.

Organic Natur 2023
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nama yeast, natural yeast, wooden vat brewing
Domaine Sakura Kame-no-o
Polishing ratio 90%, ALC 14% (undiluted)
Super-ancient method, no additive yeast (brewer's yeast), wooden vat brewing, natural yeast, sake yeast, unpasteurized sake
I found a sake shop in Chigasaki where I could buy Senkyoku, so I immediately looked for the label posted on Sakenawa and bought it.
I was thrilled and excited to open the bottle to see what the 90% polished rice ratio would taste like.
The aroma was slightly fruity...why 90%?
When I put it in my mouth, there was a tingling sensation peculiar to nama-shu on my tongue, but since it has a low alcohol content of 14%, it seemed to quickly disappear like water after I let it warm in my mouth for a while.
Still, the lingering taste in the mouth made me feel somewhat dry, perhaps because of the acidity.

Special Junmai Sake 3.11 Baton for the Future
100% Kuranohana, 60% polished rice
ALC 17% Donation to the Hatachi Fund
This sake was recently purchased at Aoki Shoten in Chigasaki, where we purchased Tenju, Koshi, and Senkou from the Risshun Asa Shibori Junmai Ginjo-Nama Sake event held by the Nippon Meimon Sake Kai.
The brewer of Ichinokura launched the "Baton for the Future: Saving Children through Brewing and Fermentation Project" in December 2011 in order to pass on the support given to the brewery in the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake to the children affected by the disaster in the form of a "thank you" gift.
Since then, they have been selling the "3.11 Baton for the Future" and donating all proceeds from the sales to the Hatachi Fund, a support fund for children affected by the disaster.
I bought a bottle thinking that it was a small support that even an old man who drinks can do.
I first enjoyed it at room temperature (cold sake). It was slightly sweet to slightly dry. I think it is a smooth and easy to drink sake.

This is the first brand I have had as a recommendation from the liquor store.
It has a bubbly taste, and as the temperature rises, it has an alcoholic taste.
It has a bitter taste, so it is refreshing but not light. It is sharp and has little sweetness.

This is the 3rd bottle this season. Still have one bottle in stock 😆 Holder
I wondered how many years it has been since I started drinking this... so I went back to the analog record before Sake no Wa...
R1BY, 60% rice polishing ratio. It was different from now!
R2BY What a 5 bottles I drank lol
R3BY: Polishing ratio 65% from here on. I drank 4 bottles in total.
R4BY Maybe I will drink 4 bottles.

Risshun morning pressing, the second type is Senkou.
Lighter and clearer than Koshi. Slightly effervescent and light acidity.

Kinoene Junmai Ginjo-shu Tachiharu Asa Shibori Nama-zake
Polishing ratio 58%, ALC 16%.
Of the three types we received today, this sake has the strongest carbonation of the raw sake and is the driest.
It has a stimulating effect on the tongue, and the aroma that spreads in the mouth is fruity.
The Tenju we had today has already been checked in on February 4, so I added only the image of the Risshun morning pressing to the fourth picture.

Risshun Asa Shibori Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjyo
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 14%.
Enya-san informed us that three types of Risshun Asa Shibori (Senkou, Kouji, and Tenju) are in stock.
Tomorrow is forecasted to be snowy in Kanagawa Prefecture, and I have another get-together, so they may be gone before I can stop by...(^◇^;)💦.
I took a chance and stopped by. 😋.
Slightly sweet, with a tangy raw sake stimulation on the tongue, this sake has a unique aroma and flavor unique to Sengoku on the palate.
Since this is my first encounter with Kouji's Risshun Asashibori, I will check in anew, but Tenju's Risshun Asashibori has already been checked in on 2/4/2023, so I have updated the date of drinking to 2/9.

We received Risshun Asashibori from Enya for Senkou, Tenju, and Kouji.
2023/2/4 Risshun
We attended the Tenju Risshun Morning Squeeze Festival, which we reserved in advance at Matsudaya in Fujisawa City.
The store's president went to Akita the day before to the brewery Tenju Shuzo and brought back the Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjozo pressed early in the morning on 2/4, Risshun, with the brewer to serve at the store.
This junmai ginjo nama sake was the first junmai ginjo nama sake pressed in the morning of Risshun that could be tasted anywhere outside of Akita Prefecture.
The sake, which was brought in cold and ready to drink, was fresh and crisp, with a slight carbonation on the tongue and sweetness in the mouth, but as it warmed up a bit in the mouth, it tasted a bit dry.
The three of us ordered it three times.
