Encountered before Kawanakajima and Kawanakajima Genmai.
Comfortable fruity and gentle
sweetness and deliciousness!
49% Miyamanishiki, Saikawa subsoil water
The fourth and last drink was Saku-no-hana, another local sake from Shinshu.
It is a gentle, slightly sweet sake with a nice sharpness.
It tasted similar to Honkin.
I wonder if Nagano's local sake tastes like this? I felt 🤔.
Third bottle.
Honkin was one of the brands I was interested in.
As the name "Sukitooru" suggests, it was a clear sake with a hint of sweetness and a clean aftertaste!
The second cup is for raw glasses only.
This brand is named after the fact that all brewers at Hagino Shuzo wear glasses.
This sake is characterized by its acidity, making it an easy drink for beginners 🍶.
At Tennoji and other places sake.
The first cup was Shizen-go.
It was a clear yet gentle sake that is typical of Fukushima sake. 🙆♂️
The word "fragrant" seems to describe a good aroma wafting in the air, but to be honest, I couldn't even smell it😅.
On the way back from a tour of liquor stores in Kita-Osaka, we stopped by another sake shop and the husband chose Shinshu Kameiring.
I was surprised when I took a sip of this 🐢 and was told that it might be better than Asahitaka if I could only taste what was in the glass😳.
I was surprised ‼️
I guess it depends on the timing of opening the bottle and how long it has been in the bottle, so it is strange to compare them, but that is the impression I got.
The way the deliciousness spreads in your mouth, the way the rice is juicy and open...it's Shinshu Kameiring, after all 😊.
The other Sunday, Rafa, the sake goddess, took me and my husband on a tour of the liquor stores in Kita Osaka😍!
I usually only inhabit the South Osaka area, so the tour was a lot of fun and felt like a trip 🩷Thank you Rafa-san for a precious and wonderful time ❣️
We went to 4 shops and started with 5 different kinds of sake tasting, which I didn't expect. So this is what the sake gods are like: ⁉️
We bought a lot, talked a lot, and had a lot of fun😊Thank you Rafa, really💕.
I'll give you more about the sake we bought at that time soon. We went to the other sake shop.
The manager told us that there was Asahitaka today, and we took a bite. ❣️
The taste is stable and delicious, the ultimate in freshness 😆👍👍.
Hello, Wakata-san 😀
I'm glad you had a great time at the sake god in Kita-Osaka😇
We were just wandering around the mountains of Kawachinagano at that time 🤣.
Actually, we haven't visited any other sake breweries yet, so we'd love to do so 😀.
Yasube, good morning 😃I was wondering if we could join you since it was raining, but it was in Kawachinagano 😁Other sake breweries are quite reasonable in their prices, so please visit ‼️ and join us with Kaorin if you like 😊.
Hi Rafa 😃Yes 💦I was standing there drinking, afraid of knocking over the drinks I put under my feet 😅If you ever come to the south side, we'll show you around this time 😁.
Good evening, Wakata!
I can feel that you had a lot of fun 😄 and it makes me smile when I read it. ☺️
I'm sure you and your wife must have had a backpack full after visiting 4 liquor stores 😅 but still, it's great that you went back home after drinking 😆.
Wakata-san konban-ha (o´ omega`o)no~~
Rafa is a really nice guy ☺️
I'd like to ask him to do the same for us when we go there😊.
I'm not sure where to put my 3 reviews, they're all so good........
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃The liquor store excursion was really fun 😆👍Next time you guys come to Osaka, please visit ❤️ and I'll join you this time 👍I ended up with a bag full, not just a backpack, 7 bottles in total😅.
While strolling around Tennoji, I saw the words "Sogapeur Effice" on the menu at a shopfront of another sake store, so I hurried to have a little drink.
I wondered when I would be able to drink it, but I never expected to find it here.
The taste and aroma are the closest to white wine I've ever had in sake 🍾.
The acidity and sharpness that reminds me of grapes is wonderful 👏👏👏.
The entrée was doteyaki, which went surprisingly well with it. 🙆♂️
