Timeline
ちばさんLuckily, it was the first one I opened.
A delicious one, full of sweetness and flavor.
Very satisfying. ちばさんGorgeous fruity.
There's no doubt about it. A delicious one. ちばさんThere was one that caught my eye, so I had a glass.
It was a good, refreshing sake, which I didn't think was a honjozo. Delicious. ヤスベェMy hard-to-find sake (5)
After work today, I met up with my wife to watch the cherry blossoms at night along the Okawa River 😀 We went to our usual izakaya (Japanese-style pub).
We went to our usual izakaya together 😀.
The sake we had was Jyushidai, which is the most difficult to obtain sake for me 😀.
I've applied for the lottery many times before, but I've never won 🤣.
So I haven't had it at home yet, but I feel like I'm drinking it all the time thanks to the fact that I know a store that always has Jyushiyo in stock 😀.
The two bottles we had today were both incomparably delicious😇.
However, his wife still prefers his student's Hanayuup to his teacher's Jyushiyo 🤣. ポンちゃんGood evening, Mr. Yasube.
I saw how difficult it is to find the various types of wine at the time of the dawn of time.
I envy you that you have a store where you can have a drink anytime ✨ Rafa papaGood morning Yasube-san 😃.
Jyushiyo is difficult to drink at home 😓Maruriki is a good restaurant 👍We used it for a farewell party for my tennis friends the other day and it cost us 7,500 yen per person because we drank too much 😅. ヤスベェHi, Pon 😀
Yes, it seems to be quite difficult to drink at home, but I'm thankful that my regular restaurant always carries it, so I don't feel like it's a hard-to-find sake 😀.
Besides, the wife seems to be more Hanamup than Jyushidai as usual 🤣. ヤスベェHello Rafa papa 😀
Thank you for visiting the restaurant I mentioned 😀.
The manager says thank you very much😇.
You drank quite a bit by the way 🤣.
That's for the two of us yesterday 😅. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasubeyesan 😃
We...won the Jyushiyo, but no one has ever won the 🥲 even in the prefectural party 🤔, but since you are so lucky Yasube, I'm sure you will win one of these days 🤗. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
As I said, it seems that the availability of sake is quite regional 😀.
In the end it's all luck and hard work 🤣.
Tonight is the last in our series on hard-to-find sake 🤣. こぞうYasubeyesan.
Good evening... I've only seen Jyushiyo, also only in stores 😥 or there was even a lottery 😱I didn't list it in the repo but I've had it several times and I prefer Hana Yuu 😍Jyushiyo is too easy to drink 😅. ヤスベェHello, Kozo-san 😀
I still think Hana Yuu tastes better than the one I usually drink 😇.
but some people say Hanayuup and Hanayuup are also hard to find sake 🤣.
Good sake is getting harder and harder to get 😅. ヤスベェToday I opened a bottle of Nagasaki's Hiran Kijoshu.
I had a bottle of this sake once before, and it changed my image of kijoshu, even though I used to hate kijoshu.
This time it was from Maruriki Shuzo, an izakaya I started visiting around September of this year, who gave it to me as a year-end present 🤣.
I'm sorry to say that I've only been going there for 3 months 😅.
It tastes like... melon 😀.
In case you're wondering, we compared Senkyu's Kijoshu and Nanabonjari's Junmai, both of which are melon 🍈.
The same melon is as different as a red flesh melon and a green flesh melon 😀.
I was scared that I was going to get into an endless loop where the refreshing taste of the Shichibonsyu would refresh me between the melon and the melon 🤣. ポンちゃんGood evening, Mr. Yasube!
I'm curious more and more because I haven't had Sentori yet! And the seven lance does a great job 😁.
And the seven bottles are doing a great job 😁😳Yasubeyes, you have a great personality 😊👍✨. Rafa papaGood morning Yasube 😃.
So the sake that changed the image of kijo sake was Hiran 😊I think Hiran would be delicious 😋 because it looks elegant and noble 😌. ヤスベェHi, Pon-chan 😀
If you have a chance to come to Osaka, this is a moderately good restaurant that also teaches you a lot about alcohol 😀.
The shichibonjari that connects the two types of melon is refreshing and really did a good job 😀. ヤスベェHi Rafa papa 😀
I think that kijoshu is a very special type of sake 🤣.
I have discovered that there is a wide range of different types of kijoshu 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasube!
Interesting comparison, I can feel the difference between the 🍈 melon 🍈 but I'm still more interested in the 7 spears that refresh me in between 😆. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
Even we, who love sweet and tasty food, would get a little bored if both bottles were melon, but the crisp and clean Shichibonjari was a wonderful accent 😀. ヤスベェLast but not least, Ryugetsu 😀
Of course, as expected from Jyushiyo... it's still delicious 😀.
However, I felt it was the least distinctive of the three 😅.
Of course, this is just our couple's stupid tongue impression, so I'm sure there are many people who have different impressions 😀.
But it was fun to have an end of the year drinking contest with our husband and wife 😀. 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
What a gorgeous drinking comparison: ‼️
I've never seen any of the Jyushidai that I haven't seen in the store 😍.
But your wife tastes better with Hana Yuu 💦. ポンちゃんHi Yasube!
Congratulations on your first 14yo 🎉and that this is the first time you compared this drink 😳‼️ it was a nice meeting ✨It's interesting that you and your wife have different tastes👍It was a good end to a good outing for both of you 😊. ヤスベェHi 3KAN4ON 😀
You can drink Jyushidai anytime, but the limited edition sake just arrived 😀.
I explained to your wife the relationship between Jyushidai and Hanayuup and she said I'm more of a student than a teacher... I won't let her drink Jyushidai! ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀.
That's quite a waste of time 😭.
I've been going to this restaurant since I started Sake no Wa and they always wait for me to finish taking pictures when I tell them I want to take pictures because I'm going to post first 😀. ヤスベェHi Pon 😀
Maybe your wife is more honest about her preferences as she doesn't know the brand of alcohol 😅.
But I appreciate the fact that we can have a silly talk over a drink together 😀. ヤスベェNext up was the Jyushiyo, Soukoh 😀!
How unusual, this Daiginjo sake is the wife's favorite 🤣.
Normally, she always chooses Junmai 😅.
It was fruity and gorgeous 😀.
The girl at the store said that this sake is the most popular when comparing these 3 bottles 😀. ヤスベェToday, I happened to be going home at the same time as my wife 😀.
It was probably the last time we would be together at the end of the year, so we went to our usual izakaya (Japanese style pub) 😀.
As the last luxury of the year, we were offered a Jyushidai drink comparison 😀.
Actually, this is my first time drinking Jyushidai 😀.
We compared Ryusen, Ryugetsu and Souki 😀.
All of them are definitely delicious 😀.
But I liked this Ryusen the best 😀.
It tasted deep and robust, but fruity and delicious 😀.
By the way, the girl at the store also said that this was her favorite out of the three 😀. Rafa papaGood evening, Yasube!
I've often seen this restaurant mentioned in reviews, but you can also compare the Jyushiyo 😳⁉️It's not far from my office, so I'd like to go there if I have the chance 😊. ねむちGood evening, Yasubeyesan 🌛An amazing drink comparison 😳This is exactly what I've been longing for 😋 Can you always drink it? I would like to stop by when I go to Tenjinbashi shopping street😊. ヤスベェHi Rafa papa 😀
I see you are in the neighborhood 😀.
If you get a chance, please do 😀.
This izakaya will give you a set to compare any sake they have in stock, so you can enjoy a variety of drinks even if you go alone 😀. ヤスベェHi Nemuchi 😀
You can drink Jyushidai anytime, but the limited edition sake is timing 😅.
It's fun because they make a set of sake to compare with Niimasa or Jikin, depending on your preference 😀.
As for the limited editions, I check the installations in advance 😀. ヤスベェTonight, my friend, a jazzman, is playing a jazz concert, so I'm going to go to the live house now 😀.
Before that, the wife and I went to our usual izakaya for a quick bite to eat 😀.
Yesterday, I asked for a refreshingly fruity dry sake for the wife, who is into dry sake, and she recommended this super dry bakelon 😀.
I was relieved to hear that she thought it was better than a bad sweet sake 😀.
By the way, I had the third new sake from the store's original connection and a heated bottle of Shinkame 😀.
Still Mrs. Kikuchi prefers cold sake to hot sake 😅. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
I'm sure you and Nobby will have the same taste! I think Nobby and I have the same taste 🤗In case you don't know, Nobby loves hot sake 😄. Rafa papaGood morning Yasbaye 😃.
If you want to drink dry sake, you can't go wrong with Bakuren 😊and you can't go wrong with heated Kamikame sake either👍🤣🤣‼️ ヤスベェJay & Nobby, hi 😀
I'm looking forward to seeing the range of flavors that will be available in the near future 😀.
However, she still seems to have some resistance to heated sake 😅. ヤスベェHi Rafa papa 😀
Until recently, I never drank dry sake at home because my wife said she didn't like dry sake 😅.
I tried to get her to drink some heated Shinkame, but she still couldn't handle it. ヤスベェToday, my friends from school got together for a little early year-end party 😀.
We drank well back in our student days, but as I said, everyone was drinking shochu and I was the only one drinking sake 😅.
The first drink was a standard self brewed sake from a standard restaurant 😀.
It's my favorite sake lately 😀.
I asked everyone to take a sip of it, but everyone with a shochu palate said it was too sweet 😅.
When the party was getting going, I asked for some recommendations for hot sake since I didn't know what hot sake was, and we had a big drinking contest of cold and hot sake recommendations 😀.
All the sakes were just hard when hiya, but when heated, the flavors opened up and I was surprised 😀.
All were delicious, but my favorite was the Funaka Hachisaku 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasube 😃.
Looks like a fun year-end party with your friends 😊Thanks for your efforts to promote sake 🍶 amidst the shochu crowd! I'm sure it's fun to compare cold and warmed sake, but I'm sure I'll get drunk 😁. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
I used to drink only shochu with my friends from school, but now I'm a total sake drinker... Everyone else is drinking shochu with hot water, so I decided to compete with them and went for hot sake too 😀. ひるぺこGood evening, Yasube-san. I see that you are enjoying the year-end party with your friends and that the heated sake from Funaka Hachisaku was the best among all the sake 😊I've never had it before ☝️ so I'd like to try it next time. ヤスベェHi Hirupeko, good evening 😀
It was almost my first experience with hot sake, and I'm not a fan of the aroma of hot sake, but I could drink it easily, which means it might not be enough for those who are used to hot sake 😅. ヤスベェWe finished off today's outing with the same sake that this izakaya always makes himself 😀.
This is the third barrel of this year's sake, and we are lucky enough to have had all of them 😀.
The first sip when chilled was refreshing, but as the temperature gradually changed, the sweetness became more intense and delicious 😀 The next barrel, the fourth, will be ready in December.
The next fourth barrel will be a sparkling one in December, which I'm really looking forward to 😀. ヤスベェThe next one was Ibigawa from Sugihara Sake Brewery in Gifu Prefecture, which is famous for its Imi sake 😀 I didn't know about it at first and asked the shop owner about it.
At first, I didn't know about it and asked the store owner about it, who told me it was made by the same brewer as Imi, so I ordered it right away 😀 It was delicious 😀.
It was delicious 😀.
It was delicious 😀 It's from the same brewery, after all 😀.
It brought back the same emotions as the first time I drank Imi 😀.
It's fruity, but it's too good to be called just fruity 😀. ヤスベェToday, my wife told me to go out for dinner because she was going to be late for work, so I went to an izakaya on my way home from work and had a drink by myself 😀.
First, an aperitif, nigori sake 👍.
It's delicious 😀.
I heard it is classified as a liqueur, but it was a really delicious aperitif with lots of fruitiness 😀. ヤスベェBirthday eve party ⑦
The last of today's birthday drinking contest is Kangiku 😀!
The wife's impression was that it was the most delicious sake of the day, including the Shinmasa 😀.
I have a feeling that Kangiku will become a regular sake in our house from now on 😀.
At any rate, we were very satisfied today with the delicious sake and delicious food 😀.
After all, it was a fun birthday dinner at an izakaya where you can drink and eat well, rather than an expensive restaurant where you have to spend a lot of money 😀. ヤスベェBirthday eve party⑥
Next, I chose the Huayou 😀 to compare.
I recommended it to my wife with confidence that it was fruity, but to my surprise she replied that it tasted good but firm... I thought it was the sweetest 😅. ヤスベェThe night before the birthday party (5)
For the next drink comparison, since we were invited by his wife, we selected three types of sweet and tasty sake that she likes 😀.
Tasake...of course it's delicious 😀
I knew what it tasted like because I had just had it the other day, but I was happy to hear that the wife was pleased with the taste after drinking it for the first time 😀. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
