Sashi-Drinking with Mr. Jaive④.
Lastly, we ordered different drinks, so I exchanged mine for a shot of Imi Pink and tasted a little.
It's been a long time since I've had Hana-yosu since I couldn't get it.
It's my first time to drink premium.
Thin and cloudy. It's like a pineapple, just like Hana-yosu.
Sweet and juicy and so delicious 😋.
Maybe it's because it's premium, or maybe it's because it's not as bitter or sweet as I once thought it would be, but it's exactly what I imagine Hana-yosu to be like.
I like this kind of taste after all 😁.
I was also interested in San San Aisan and Beian Daiguo Xue Zhong Zhuang, but I drank only pre-drinks today 😅.
We parted ways with Jive at Namba station and headed home.

Sashi-Drinking with Mr. Jaive (3)
I didn't see it on the menu, but the owner said they also have pink 😁.
Pink, which seems to have been released for the first time in 6 years.
Slightly oriented. Sweet and a little bitter. I like it sweeter than black.
I was looking forward to 🍓 but I don't know if it's because it's been open for a while, but I couldn't tell the 🍓 feeling...

Sashi-Drinking with Mr. Jaive (2)
I was surprised to see two Viridians on the menu, one of which was the first sparkling Viridian, and I asked for it because I thought it would be sold out since the regulars were drinking it one after another 😁.
It's a relief drink for the Myanmar earthquake.
I googled and didn't come up with much, but I guess it's not available yet 🤔.
It looks like it was made when Mr. Uematsu was the chief brewer of the brewery.
It has a Western-style aroma.
It's a bit schwitty, but the Viridian-ness is there.
But the Viridian I've had recently was sweeter, but this one is woody, and I thought it was a bit like the Viridian from a while ago.

ポンちゃん
Good evening, bouken 🦉.
I've never had Viridian in these days, so I'm envious. That's awesome that you're having a saki-kun and premier sake 😻I'm jealous that I've never had a Viridian these days✨.

Good evening, Ponchan.
I was having a drink with my brother 🤣.
There were many other drinks we wanted to drink but we were very selective 😁.
I think this is probably the sparkling version of the drink you had at your first Viridian 🤔

One-day trip to Osaka ④🚃.
So far, I ordered the same thing as [bouken], but from here on, we ordered different things 🎵.
I ordered "Kahayo Yoku Premium", and bouken-san ordered "射美 Pink", and what came out was "射美 特純 15号"!
I ordered "Hahoriyokyu THE PREMIUM Hachitan-Nishiki Junmai Daiginjo, Polishing 40%, Unfiltered Nama-shu".
I had drunk it in the past, and this time, I reviewed the "Imi Pink" which I was given in exchange for a little bit of the "Imi Pink".
ikumi tokun jun 15
Distinctive but indescribable aroma, clean sweetness on the palate.
The taste is much easier to recognize than the black one.
The "Huahiangyoku" has a sweet pineapple flavor that does not betray its Huahiangyoku-like character.
6300 yen for the two of us after drinking so much premium sake and ordering food.
That's too cheap!
After this, we went back to Namba station to say goodbye to bouken-san and went back to Umeda for shopping.

One-day trip to Osaka (3)
While I was contemplating my next order, a regular customer ordered a Viridian, and the waiter asked if he could have one too. and I was served it.
Shinsei Viridian, a humanitarian aid sake for the Myanmar Earthquake of 2025.
A bottle of "Viridian" brewed with 2022 sake rice and aged for 2 years in the brewery.
The aroma alone is intoxicating, with a fruity, mellow rice aroma, a strong gassy mouthfeel, a strong sweet acidity, a clean finish, and a pleasant aftertaste.
It goes well with the aroma of cheddar cheese.
This is a precious sake that I could drink.
Japanese>English
ポンちゃん
Gyve, here's another one 😊.
That's awesome, full of premier liquors! I hope you had a fun sibling drink 😁.
The aged Viridian looks delicious😻

Hi Pon, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Actually, they were planning to serve this sake if the menu says "Viridian" and "Viridian" or something like that 🥰.
They are also going to open several "Jyushidai" and "Shinshu Kamerei" during the holidays 💡.

One-day trip to Osaka (2)
I met up with bouken-san, who had asked me to exchange sake at Namba's EDION, and we went to the sake corner, and then to Nikomaru Shuhan in Kouhama.
To my surprise, I was able to get a bottle of "Sentoku" that I had been looking for, which had just arrived.
I was also able to buy a bottle of Oita's "Hanashimi" 🎵.
From there, I went back to Tennoji and had a drink at Tesho Sake 🍶.
They had a lot of premium sake on tap during the GW period, and I was wondering which one to order, so I started with this one!
Imi BLACK"!
There was also a WHITE sake, but I chose this one because I have had it in the past!
It has no characteristic aroma, a complex taste that can be taken as umami, sweetness, or sourness, and a bitter taste that lingers on the tongue after it finishes.
Hmmm, it's hard to evaluate 🤔.

Hey Gyve, hi 😃.
You came from Fukui to Osaka and got Kyushu Sake👍Great 👏You were aiming for it?
It will be fun to join you and bouken for the premier sake festival😍🤗.

Hi Jay & Nobby, hello here too ☀.
All 4 of the bottles, including the one we exchanged with bouken this time, were all firsts for us ✨.
It's great to be able to get sake from a difficult province that will be wallowing in the second week of the nationals, and also to drink pre-sake 🥰.

Sashi drinking with Mr. Jaive (1)
Gyve and I exchange drinks when we meet at offline meetings, and he asked me if I would bring him some since he was going to Osaka. I was going to Osaka, so I asked him if he would like me to bring him some.
After hanging out at the Edion liquor store, Gyve-san said he was going to Nikomaru Sake Brewery in Kouhama, Suminoe, so I decided to go with him 🚃.
After that, we took the Hankai Line to Tennoji and went to Tesho Sake.
I hadn't been there since last year with Nemuchi and Yasube!
I've been wanting to go there since they opened a lot of rare sake during the GW 😍.
First up was the first release in 10 years, Sagami BLACK!
Not too sweet. Quite a complex taste.
The second half is more astringent and bitter.
I wondered what the complexity was, but it turns out that the rice polishing ratio was 80%.
Maybe it's a bit on the dry side 🤔.

It is easy to drink because it goes down smoothly, but what in the world is this sense of satisfaction?
