Timeline
こまっちゃんIt's been a while since I ordered sashimi at the neighborhood fish shop I always go to, so this time I chose sake from here 💁♂️👍.
Let's start with the first saké. The first aroma is slightly sweet and smells like ripe bananas. The mouthfeel is mellow and the sake-like flavor is retained, while the acidity refreshes the palate. Overall, it is mellow and refreshing rather than crisp for a chikara 😄.
With sashimi. The sweetness and sourness of the rice from the sashimi and this sake is a nice salty combination. All of them go well together 😉 Delicious 😋.

Opened this bottle: 💁♂️ The aroma is like muscat on the nose. It is light and refreshing on the palate. It has a light and refreshing taste on the palate with a slight bitterness and umami at the end.
Serve with sashimi of tuna. The sweet and umami taste of this sake increases when combined with tuna sashimi😄This sake is delicious and goes well with tuna sashimi. ❤️

My sore muscles may have softened somewhat 😃. obayoIt is a luxurious drink recommended by the lady at the corner liquor store. Refreshing and easy to drink. こまっちゃんThe sister of the fishmonger I always go to is celebrating her birthday tomorrow, so I bought some chirashi sushi with seafood for the eve event. Looking forward to it😊
Let's start with the standing aroma. It has a faint aroma of ears of rice.
In the mouth, the first sourness and bitterness come with a bang, followed by the smooth sweetness and umami of the rice.
I would like to try it with chirashi sushi with seafood. Personally, I think it went well with the bigeye tuna 😋I like this sake because it has a strong umami flavor 🤟

With grilled pork. The balance between the slightly sweet tender thigh meat and the good umami flavor increases the umami flavor with the hint of this sake and goes well with the bitterness🙆.

Imi, that's nice...
I've never even seen it 🥲.
I haven't made char siu pork in a while, so I think I'll make it for the first time in a while and pair it with a refreshing drink 😁. こまっちゃんGood morning, Manta-san. I have been going to the liquor store every time to ask if it is in today's bottle. The guy at the store says it's a sake that runs out in an instant😅.
I think the roast pork would go well with a refreshing drink too 😊. ジェイ&ノビィHi Komacchan 😃
I love the sake 😍I love it!
I think it's important to be diligent in your drinking 🤔I'm sure your wife would love to have some 🥹. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby, let's work on our drinking together ‼️ (lol) the next time we see you, Imi 😊. こまっちゃんThe bonito and fresh onion with mustard I had in Towada was delicious, so when I went to the fish shop to buy some sashimi, I bought this bonito yabeya (according to the fish shop (laugh)). In fact, it seems to be marinated in vinegar and ginger.
I chose this one to go with it👍This time I tried to match it with heated sake.
Let's start with the first sip. The aroma is slightly sweet and sour with a hint of rice.
The sweetness and umami of the rice spread through the full mouthfeel, followed by a slight bitterness and then a crisp taste. Tamitsu itself has a beautiful mouthfeel in general.
With the bonito yabeyesu. The meatiness of the bonito is well balanced with the vinegar and ginger, bringing out the smoothness of this sake and the sweetness and umami of the rice. ☺️ delicious 😁.

I'd love to go there but haven't had it yet 😆. こまっちゃんGood morning Eririn-san ☀☀☀ I think the bonito is especially tasty this year 😋 and it was perfect with sake 👌. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Komachan 😃.
I can tell from the picture that it looks badass 😋Yabeh and Tamitsu bring out the best in each other🥹This is badass 😁. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby He was a real bad guy (laughs). こまっちゃんWell, I'm tired🥱It's been a hard week of bringing things in 💦My body aches... 😓Yesterday I went to Akita, and today I'm in Aomori. Reward yourself for somehow getting through it👍.
The nose has an apple-like ginjo aroma. The sweetness is refreshing on the palate with a nice bitterness at the end. It is more refreshing than I expected.
Serve with potatoes and minced meat. The sweetness of the new potatoes and ground meat, the acidity of the tomatoes, and the rich flavor of the cheese bring out the sweetness and aroma of this sake even more. It will be gone in no time😅.

Thanks for your work across Tohoku 😌The drinks will go down a treat when the food and sake are perfectly matched 🤗. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby From now on, I'd like to enjoy spring foods with sake 😋 and I may drink more and more sake (lol)! こまっちゃんWell, I got home early and opened it again 😅.
Let's start with the first sip. The nose is slightly alcoholic and sweet.
In the mouth, a pear-like sweetness comes first, followed by a sourness that gives a sharp aftertaste. There is also a hint of fragrance, and a pleasant umami and a hint of bitterness spreads.
Serve with crispy stir-fried pork in Chinese style. The sweetness of this sake increased due to the punch of the garlic soy sauce, but I think it lost some of its individuality.
On the other hand, when served with unohana, the richness increases and the umami flavor stands out 😄.
Maybe it goes better with gentle flavors such as unohana. 🙆♀️
Sake itself is very good 😋.

Let's get right to it. The standing aroma is a little bit sweet in a cemedine type.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a slight alcohol taste at first, then a soft sweetness, and finally a bitter taste with sourness and umami. It is characterized by an exquisite balance that envelops you softly. It is a great drink 😚 and may be good heated up. 🙆♂️
Serve with grilled scallops with butter. The aroma of the sea brings out the flavor and sweetness of this sake and makes it even more delicious. It's delicious 🤩and what can I say, it's very cosy. ‼️👍

Price including tax】1,560 yen こまっちゃんThe 701st post also starts with sake from Iwate 😁.
Let's start right away. The aroma is soft and sweet like spring.
It is juicy and fresh in the mouth. After the sweetness, there is a bitter taste. It's spring, isn't it?
First of all, I had it with crab soup. I made it based on a crab soup🦀 that I bought at a roadside station in Towada, Aomori. The crab flavor and sweetness are distinctive, and the sweetness and flavor increase with the aroma of this sake. It goes well together 😍.
Next, I served it with crab gratin. Each flavor is combined with a crisp aftertaste. This is also good 😁.

You're restarting with Iwate sake 🤗I've never heard of crab soup 😳 crab 🦀 gratin and all things crab 😍Attees that make sake even better are the best 😍☺️ こまっちゃんJay & Nobby A collaboration between Iwate and Aomori. Crab soup, it's my first time too. It looks like crab soup made with mokuzu crab from Lake Ogawara in Aomori. It went well with sake😍. こまっちゃんHmmm... I got home a little early, so I opened this bottle 😝.
Let's get right to it. The nose is sweet with a refreshing green apple aroma. In the mouth, the sweetness is followed by acidity, and then the umami spreads to the palate with a hint of bitterness at the end. If I were to use an analogy, it would be like strawberries before they ripen.
Chicken roasted with garlic and mustard. The richness of this sake, brought out by the deliciousness of the chicken, increases the flavor of both 😁.
Next, I paired it with the Sasakamama Cheese Board that I was given. This also goes well with the chicken 😃 Unlike the chicken, the sake's individuality is further brewed out to create a good balance of umami and bitterness. It also goes well with fish paste 👍.

Chicken with garlic and mustard
Price including tax】1,980 yen こまっちゃんSince I was able to buy chestnut crabs 🦀, what should I pair them with? I thought 🤔I chose this one👍
First of all, from the standing aroma. It has a faint aroma of grain.
When you put it in your mouth, there is a hint of aroma, and unlike the impression of the aroma, it has a light and clean mouthfeel. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, bitterness, and acidity, and is easy to drink.
Now, let's try it with chestnut crab. The richness of this sake increased with the flavor of the crab, and the taste became richer 😄.
Next, I paired it with grilled pork from Shirogane Pork 🐖. The sweet fat and sake harmonized with each other to create their own flavor. Very nice 🙆.
It could easily be paired with either seafood or meat 😁.

Chestnut crab 🦀 & roasted pork 🐖 is another good otsumami 🤩It's fun to choose a sake 🍶 to go with it! That was the perfect sake to go with it 🤗 こまっちゃんHello Jay & Nobby, I enjoy meeting different kinds of sake and foodstuffs than when I was in Okayama😄. こまっちゃんAt the fish store, I already bought a star of a mosquito? I bought a I looked it up 🔍and it seems to be shark heart🫀. Today I paired it with this dry type👍.
The standing aroma is refreshing along with a sense of alcohol and koji-like aroma.
In the mouth, the freshness and umami of the rice is strong, as if it is made from sake lees, and there is also a hint of fragrance. Finally, the pleasant acidity and bitterness give it a refreshing aftertaste.
First of all, it is served with Mouka no Hoshi. It has a crispy texture and tastes like liver sashimi, which goes well with this sake😃I tried it with sesame oil this time.
Next, I had the yerba mate steamed with sake. The flavorful broth from the yerba mate is amazing 😳The flavor of yikyo is increased ❗️
Well, I'm so happy 🎶.

I haven't seen any more Kaka stars or yerba mate here, but my wife said the yerba mate is delicious 🐚 Looks delicious with sake 😋. こまっちゃんMasaaki Sapporo-san Good evening. I am originally from Kyushu, so I am familiar with yerba mate, but this is my first time to try kanohoshi! Both went well with chivalry. ☺️ こまっちゃんFirst purple space sparkling 😁.
The standing aroma is more like a combination of yogurt and koji malt. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a sense of sizzle at first, and then the crisp and dry taste spreads more than you expected. As you continue to drink, the taste becomes more smooth like amazake (sweet sake).
Today, I had it with oden. I knew it would go well with dashi (Japanese soup stock) 😊It makes this sake easier to drink and it goes down smoothly. Delicious 😋.

Purple space is delicious 🥰.
I want to repeat it 🎶.
Oden also looks delicious with lots of ingredients🍢🤤. こまっちゃんGood morning Eirin-san, good morning. ☀️ purple space is delicious 😁I actually have a different series of stock in my fridge 😋 looking forward to that one too 😋. Kobayashi KThis sake has a refreshing sweetness. It is named Melon, but I didn't feel that much melon. But very fruity and delicious sake. In the aftertaste, there is a flavor (I don't know how to describe it) that is often felt. Kobayashi KIt is a bit lighter than the Akabu. It was juicy, muscat-like and refreshing. Kobayashi KSecond drink at a liquor store in front of Morioka station. I used red yeast. Try it because it is often seen at liquor stores this time of year. A peach-colored sake. It had a liqueur-like sweetness and sourness, and was a delicious sake that was easy to drink and gobble up. Kobayashi KFirst drink at a liquor store in front of Morioka Station. There was a sake made with CEL-24 from Kochi, which I had been curious about since the last time I drank Kameizumi, so I tried it. It tasted more like apple than pineapple, and the sweetness was not as strong as I expected. It was a delicious sake with just the right amount of acidity to make it a crisp drink.
