ヤスベェBirthday eve party 4)
I was looking forward to it, and I chose the Shinsei's third choice of flax cat 😀.
Needless to say, it was also delicious 😀
The most fun birthday dinner present ever 😀.
In my opinion, this was my favorite of all the drinks we compared 😀.
It's the fun of sake that each person has a different impression of the same Shinmasa 😀. ヤスベェBirthday eve party (3)
For the second place in the Shinmasa drinking contest, I chose 6-R 😀.
It's also delicious 😀.
My wife said that this 6-R was her favorite out of all the Shinsei we compared this time 😀. ヤスベェThe night before the birthday party (2)
Today's main event at this restaurant was a comparison of different series of Shinsei that I've been wanting to try for a while 😀 Cosmos, 6-R, and Flaxcat 😀.
Cosmos, 6-R and Flaxcat 😀.
All of them are delicious 😀.
And all of them have their own identity 😀.
My stupid taste buds can't tell the difference between them unless I put all three together 😅. ヤスベェBirthday eve party ①.
October 23rd is my 65th birthday 😀.
My wife told me that we should book a table at a restaurant and go out to eat, so I told her that we should go to Izakaya, which is my current favorite place to eat 😅.
I explained to her that we could have a good drink there and she immediately agreed 😀.
Thanks to his wife's good nature to change from restaurant to izakaya so easily 😀.
First of all, we chose Tanaka Rokugo for the toast 😀.
I had decided to celebrate my 65th birthday with this, so I was happy to drink it 😀.
The owner asked me why I chose this sake and poured me a glass of it 😀 I thought Fukuoka sake was dry.
I thought Fukuoka sake was dry, but it was very fruity 😀.
I'm glad his wife liked it too 😀. ヤスベェToday's dining out④
I was going to end the meal with Soukiku, but the owner offered me to try this as well 😀 I had a drink the other day, which was a collaboration with the sake brewery 😀.
The other day I was served this sake, which is a collaboration between this restaurant and a sake brewery 😀.
When I told him that I drank it the other day, he told me that it was just a sample and that it was still under-fire 😀.
I was a bit intimidated because I was a sake novice like myself and not yet familiar with the store, but my curiosity got the better of me and I enjoyed the sake 😀.
Delicious ‼️
I enjoyed the previous fully labeled sake, but this sample was more fruity and tasted better to me 😀.
I wonder if it would be good as it is, without any flame treatment? 😀 ヤスベェEating out today ③
The other day, I read a post on Sake-no-Wawa and was looking for a sake that I just couldn't find, but I found it at this restaurant 😀.
It was a gorgeous and delicious sake, just as it was rumored to be 😀.
The comment I read said that it can be paired with fruit, but it was also a good match with sulten 😀. えりりんYasbay, congrats on the decision.
I'm glad we met for a drink outside 😊.
I thought the Kenaiyama was gorgeous and less bitter, so I thought it was a great drink on its own: ☺️
I would love to drink it again🎶. ヤスベェGood morning, Erin 😃.
I had received your information, so when I came across it at the store, I chose it without hesitation 😀.
It was delicious, but the quantity was not enough, so next time I would definitely like to drink a bottle at home 😀. ヤスベェEating out today (2)
The second drink was another first for me, Eikoku 😀.
The first sip spread deliciousness and sweetness, but as I drank more, I wondered if it was dry? Is it dry?
It was delicious, but I don't know how to describe it 😅I'm not good at expressing myself. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening Yasbay 😃.
I went to buy some Kouei Chrysanthemum Acid Burst 😆 I heard it has a good acidity but it was sold out 🥲 we will have to wait until next year to drink it 😅.
I guess the flavor will change as the days go by 🤗. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
As you write, it was a very strange drink, which I can't describe as I'm not very good with my mouth 😅.
Please drink it and give us your nice comments 😀. ヤスベェToday, we got an order to eat out because the wife will be late 😀.
Today's eating out ①.
I heard on TV the other day that people in the Kanto area don't eat suruten (suruten), so I went back to the restaurant I opened last time to eat surume tempura for the first time in a while 😀.
The first sake I paired with the suruten and potato salad was my first Eiko Fuji 🍶.
It was a very sweet sake 🍶.
It is very sweet, but the aftertaste is magically clean and not sticky 😀.
It's a bit of a dangerous sake that you can't stop drinking once you start 😅. ヤスベェDiscovery of a new drinking spot (3)
The last of the new drinking places is the sake that was recommended to me at this restaurant 😀.
They told me to try it because I had chosen a fruity sake 😀.
It was really fruity and delicious 😀.
I was told that this sake is brewed jointly by this restaurant and a sake brewery in Aichi 😀.
I thought it was worth going to this store just to try this sake 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasube 😃.
Congratulations on the 100 check-in ㊗️ at the new bar with the recommended connection from Tasake to Hana-yosu 🎉It's exactly the one that will lead to the next one 🤗. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
Thank you so much, before I knew it, I had reached 100 times 😀.
It's thanks to all of you at Sake-no-wa that we've been able to expand the variety of drinks and try new places to drink... thanks 😀 ジャイヴNice to meet you Yasbay😊.
Congratulations on reaching 100 check-ins with the next "connection" 🎉!
I think it's one of the fastest records to reach 100 in just one month since you started 😲Have a fulfilling drinking life from now on 😁. ヤスベェGyve, nice to meet you 😀.
Sorry it took me so long to thank you 😅
It's been a bit of a foul month since I started taking pictures before I started Sake no Wa: 🙇♀️
I'm a newbie to sake, so please keep me posted 😀. ヤスベェDiscovered a new drinking spot (2)
The second drink I requested at the newly discovered bar was Hana-yosu 😀.
I have been wanting to drink this sake for a long time, and I finally found it at this restaurant 😀.
As everyone commented, it was a fruity but well-balanced sake 😀.
If you can drink it like this, it might be worth going to this store 😀. ヤスベェFound a new place to drink (1)
I will be moving at the end of this month, and today I walked the route to work from there 😀.
There, I found a restaurant with a wide variety of local sake💕
I paid a quick visit 😀.
First, let's start with Tasake 😀.
I remember being treated to it at a drinking party at work a long time ago, but I wasn't really interested in sake at the time and passed on it completely😅.
After drinking it again, I realized that it was really good after all 😀 I'm glad I found this place 😀.
I'm glad I found this place 😀. せああすJikkai drinking contest.
The choice was made by the store.
I think I like Omachi.
Next time, I will take revenge on Imi. せああすShinmasa drinking contest.
All were good, but the Yonotori was especially delicious! こるね<I see what an elegant sweet taste it is.
The last of Murayu's sake comparison is Junmai Daiginjo Tokiwa label.
The aroma is very faint. It is interesting that the higher the grade, from Akane to Konruri to Tokiwa, the less noticeable the scent becomes.
When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness is immediately overwhelming.
Ahmah! Yum!
The fine sweetness is assertive. Then, the sweet aroma passes through to the nose. Tokiwa's aroma is stronger than Tokiwa's. I don't know what it means, but it's wonderful. I don't know what it means, but it's wonderful.
It is quite sweet. But the sweetness is very elegant. And even though it is so sweet, it disappears before you know it and has a beautiful aftertaste.
Oh, you can see why it is compared to wasanbon. It melts in the mouth and has an elegant sweetness that does not linger.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Kiki's cake from "The Witch's Delivery Service". The old lady baked this chocolate cake for Kiki. It is filled with the old lady's elegance and gentleness.

こるね<Sugarcane with a full sweetness and softness.
Following the previous Akane label, the next one is a Junmai Ginjo with a dark blue Ruri label. This is the first time for me to drink this one. What kind of sake is this?
The aroma is slightly sugary-sweet. It is more subdued than the Akane label.
In the mouth, it has a mild sweetness and a hint of tasty acidity. From there, the sweetness is further increased. The umami is also gradually released.
Oh, it is very rich. It has the same sugarcane-like sweetness as the Akane label, but the acidity is gone, making it softer and less cloying. Delicious!
It's interesting that there was not much of a top note, but the hint of sweetness is pleasantly sweet.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Okiyo from "Heisei Raccoon War Ponpoko". She is the girlfriend of the main character, Shokichi. She's a raccoon dog, but cute! The soft sweetness with fluffy taste is very attractive. I want to be buried in her belly.

こるね<A strong, full-bodied, acidic and sugary-sweet taste.
The aroma is mildly sour-sweet. It is not fruity, but has a grain-like sour-sweetness.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel the full-bodied acidity and sweetness. The acidity and sweetness spreads out as it is. It has a firm, peculiar, full-bodied sourness and a slightly burnt, sugarcane-like sweetness. Murayu is often compared to the sweetness of wasanbon, a high-grade sugar used in Japanese confectionery, but the acidity of Akane Label is more dominant.
Akane Label is more like the elementary school teacher in the Ghibli movie "My Neighbor Totoro. She only appears for a short time, but she is a plump and solid-looking female teacher. By the way, the voice actress is Machiko Washio, the same as that of Laputa.
