Good balance of sweetness and acidity. The acidity is especially pleasant. Also, the aroma that leaves after drinking is wonderful.
I paired it with tonight's menu, Yokkaichi tonteki (pork tenderloin), meat and potatoes, Mugen green peppers, and sakataki cream cheese, and I think it is an excellent sake that complements all dishes.
Japanese>English
ともとも
The first impression immediately after opening the package is fruity and gorgeous. Then comes a distinct sweetness and a slightly subdued acidity, and finally a hint of bitterness.
I paired it with tonight's menu, grilled chicken with onion sauce. It went well with this dish, but next time, I would like to try it with something dry and savor it with sake as a main course.
I also tried it in a wine glass, but I felt that it was less sake-like and more fruity and gorgeous.

ともとも
My son returned home on a business trip and I opened a bottle of Tasake.
First, there was a refreshing sweetness and the umami of rice. After that, there is a slight sourness and bitterness.
I paired it with tonight's menu: grilled pork, sashimi of sea bream, unlimited green bell pepper, potato salad, thunder konnyaku, and cooked beans.
It is a good sake that goes well with all dishes.

My wife and I went to the liquor store together and she said she wanted nigori sake, so we bought it as her choice.
The bottle is wrapped in non-woven cloth and looks luxurious.
The taste is quite dry. It has a clean acidity and a slight bitterness.
I paired it with tonight's menu, sesame soy milk hot pot, and I think it is a good sake that does not interfere with the meal.
Japanese>English
ともとも
The overall flavor is clean. It has a pleasant acidity reminiscent of yogurt and a soft sweetness.
I want to taste it all the time.
Japanese>English

Clean and dry. It has moderate umami and mild acidity.
It gives the impression of being a little quiet, but you will never get tired of drinking it.

I went to the store on the day of arrival but couldn't buy the snowman ⛄️
I ordered it because it was in the lineup! It tastes like yogurt or lactobacillus drink, and it was like the adult Calpis that is often commented on! Not too sweet and the label is cute and nice👍

Snowball Drinking Comparison Day 2
Today we had a bottle of Izumihashi Active Nigori 😀.
We will compare Izumihashi's light nigori, Shinomine's light nigori and Houou Mita, which were opened earlier 😀.
Today, I felt that Izumihashi's light nigori and Shinomine's light nigori were close in taste.
I felt the taste of Izumihashi's light nigori and Shinomine's light nigori are very close 😀.
The dry taste mixed with the light nigori is very well balanced and delicious 😀.
I opened a bottle of Izumihashi's Active Nigori today, and I found it to be very tasty, with a sense of sizzle and balance close to my favorite sansho 😀.
I think I'll have to go with Izumihashi's Active Nigori in today's comparison 😀.
Kaorin said Hououmida is still the best 😀.
By the way, did you know that Izumibashi's Koyuki and Akkatsu have different facial expressions as well as colors ❓❓😀.

All of the sakes are really fresh and delicious, but every time Yasubeyesan and I ask each other which is our favorite sake of the day. I always ask Yasubeyesan which is his favorite sake of the day, and we always end up asking each other which one is his favorite. It's a tough one, really!

A project I've been warming up to for a long time 😀
It's a snowball drinking contest 😀
I wanted to start earlier, but the warmer weather has been keeping me up 😅.
Believing that the fridge is now full and the weather forecast that it will be cold from tomorrow, we'll start today 😀.
This time I entered these 6 people... not these 6 bodies 😀
Two Senkou and two Izumibashi . The rest are Ozeyuki and Amabuki 😀.
Today, we first opened a bottle of Izumihashi Koyuki Nigori 😀.
I had heard that Izumi was originally a dry sake, but thanks to the nigori of Koyuki, it was a well-balanced sake between dry and sweet 😀.
But Mrs. Izumi still likes Houou Mita which we compared 😀.

Today's new sake is Shinomine's new light nigori 😀.
We will compare it with Houou Mita, Mutsu Hatsusen and Sancho which were opened earlier 😀.
I had a little bit of Shinomine before at an izakaya in Nara for a sake comparison, but at the time I had an image of it being dry 😀.
This new light nigori sake was sweet but had a nice sharpness 😀 My wife, who loves sweet sake, was very impressed with this sake.
My wife, who likes sweet sake, highly evaluated this sake as very refreshing 😀.
However, my wife says that the newest taste that she just opened that day is always the best, even if she changes the bottle every day, so I can't rely on her comment as much as mine 🤣.
But as I always say, they are all delicious 😀.

Good evening, Yasubeyesan!
I was curious about the spring light nigori because it was delicious 😆👍I would like to try the new light nigori as well 😊.

Hi Pon 😀
Somehow, the sweetness comes to any sake when it becomes nigori type 😀.
I think the light nigori from a sake brewer that is known for its dryness may be a good balance of dryness and sweetness, so it may be a good target for you 😀.

First time drinking at home after moving 😀.
First time in Fukui prefecture to compare with Otters special sake 😀.
I decided on Bon limited hiyaoroshi 😀.
This sake was also my first time in Fukui, and I had kept it in the fridge for a while, hoping to open it soon after the move 😀.
It was as good as the Otters limited edition sake 😀.
By the way, my wife prefers
By the way, my wife said that Bon limited hiyayogoshi was better than Otters Limited Sake, but I think Otters Limited Sake is better.

The main sake for my 65th birthday was... Tanaka Rokuugo of course 😀
I had been stocking up on Tanaka Rokugo 65/13 for a while and had it sitting in my fridge at home 😀.
It's a very refreshing sake and delicious 😀.
It is indeed 65 years old 😀.
I wanted to spend the next year with a clear mind like this sake 😀
That's what I'm talking about 😀 65 😀

Japan conquest week 1, 36th.
Currently, there are several types of sake from prefectures that I have yet to drink in our fridge as I aim for a round-the-Japan sake trip 😀.
Today, the wife told me that tonight's dish is ahi jogyo, so I chose Ishizuchi, a solid sake, based on your post from among those waiting to be served 😀.
The sake I chose to compare was Kamikawa Taisetsu, which was opened the other day 😀.
The result was... delicious 😀.
Both sakes were solid, but the Ishizuchi was more floral and tasty 😀.
Both Ishizuchi and Kamigawa Taisetsu are like a double for a solid tasting food 😀.

Congratulations, 101 Check in ㊗️
I was surprised to hear from a friend of mine at Sake-no-wa
I was surprised myself when I learned that my last post had 100 check-ins 😀.
Thanks to everyone at Sake-no-wa, my world of sake has really expanded 😀 Thank you so much 💕.
Thank you 💕
For my 101st check-in, I decided to go with Kamikawa Taisetsu for my first trip to Hokkaido, as befitting a trip to Japanese sake 😀.
Drinking together at home were Kido, Haneya and Suidama 😀.
Kamikawa Taisetsu...not so spicy or fruity, but it didn't interfere with any dishes 😀 Even the wife, who is not a tastemaker, enjoyed this one.
Even my wife, who is not good with taste, said this was the first sake she had ever had.
I was surprised😅.
For my 101st check-in, I got a good sake 😀.

Kaku-uchi Report (3)
This is another sake that I would not normally choose, but since I was alone, I went for it.
It was a seasonal hiyaoroshi, but the strong flavor was stronger than the mellowness.
Sometimes, drinking alone outside like this is fun to encounter new tastes 😀.
But...I found a sake I've been curious about for a while, so I'm taking the train home with a few bottles on the way😅.
I was told I'm not allowed to buy them until the end of the move, so how will I put them away in the fridge 😓.

Kaku-uchi Report (2)

Kakunin Report (1)
I found a kaku-uchi machine by visiting a little store I discovered the other day where you can buy Senkou regularly.
I tried my first sake with Choyu.
Usually, my wife likes sweet and tasty sakes, so this was not a sake I would choose, but it was the first time in a long time that I had a solid sake.
Japanese>English
いーじー
Purchased at a liquor store.
It has been a long time since I returned to my parents' home in Osaka, so I haven't had Osaka sake for a long time.
Rarity is normal.
Cold sake.
Beautiful and gentle aroma.
At the beginning, it tasted fresh like a summer sake, but as you drink it, it gradually becomes more brawny. There is no acidity and a bit of bitterness.
Slightly dry with good sharpness. The aftertaste is normal.
We had it with okonomiyaki and did not get tired of drinking it. It goes well with dishes with strong flavors.
There are only a few sake breweries in Osaka, including Akizuka, in the Kansai area, but I have the impression that many of them are suitable for sake connoisseurs because of their classic style and very robust flavor.
