Ruka純米吟醸 無ろ過 生 山田錦

Second cup.
Fruity and sweet, but also surprisingly sake-like.
The brewer wanted to name his child after this name, but his wife objected, so he named the sake after her.

After work.
The first glass was Katsuma, a hard-to-find brand from Toyama, which I had wanted to try.
It's a light, fresh, and soft cup. 🙆♂️
It is probably best drunk as a food sake, but it is also delicious on its own!

The last check-in of the day was a barrel sake from Kawakame.
It was served at room temperature and had a nice aroma of the barrels and the sake was easy to drink without any peculiarities.

The second drink at the other place sake, Okuhida sake.
I was too drunk to remember much of the taste after drinking this much, but it was sweet and easy to drink. 🙆♂️
I would like to drink it at home next time because it is a brand that is relatively easy to get!

We changed the location and went to another place sake in Tennoji.
Just like the catchy looking label, the sake tastes catchy too, with a refreshing white wine-like taste. It was delicious!

At a sake shop where you can find a variety of beautiful sake.
Shinshu Kamerei, which is hard to find in Osaka.
I wanted to try it someday!
It's sweet and fresh with a nice sharpness.
It's very easy to drink 😅.

The last of the other sake breweries is Takachiyo zodiac label 🐲.
I'm a sucker for zodiac labels, and I'm tempted to get my hands on a lot of them if I think they're only available now 💦.
First of all, Takachiyo has a cute label.
It's covered by a cat 🥹 with the zodiac sign.
And then a sip. Mild aroma 😆.
No, the 3 cups so far are just gorgeous 😆 ⁉️
The freshness of the raw sake behind the gentleness is also there, and the unique rice flavor of Takachiyo is coming through well. ❣️ This is what Takachiyo is all about, I thought.
It's not flashy, but it's good, and that's what the zodiac label was for😊After all, "Takachiyo" and "delicious" are synonyms: ❤️

Next is nirvana tortoise.
This is 500 yen for other places' sake 😱.
This is a junmai-shu with a so-called low-polishing ratio of 88%. But it doesn't have that feeling at all, if anything it has an elegant finish ✨It still has the body or somewhat guttural feeling that only low-polishing can give, but it is held together by the acidity that is typical of Shinmasa, which is unique 😋 Oh, it's delicious ❤️

The second bottle of sake elsewhere is a zodiac label for Tasake, which I couldn't get for home drinking 😆💕.
Every year Tasake's zodiac sign label looks gorgeous or like the embroidery on the back of a scajan....... It's cool, so no problem 😅
But that aside, here's a sip.
No lie⁉️ if it's just the first sip, it's so perfect that even the Jyushiyo I just had is faint ✨.
Fresh green apple and LaFrance nuances.
Chilli, delicate acidity and soft sweet umami.
The aftertaste is refreshingly bitter and moderately sour. A light sharpness closed it out 😋💕.
Great taste. Quintessential 🥹.
Japanese>English
アラジン
Wakata, I'm glad to hear that the first sip was particularly good here too 🍶.
The bitterness at the end was rather strong, so it seems that tastes differ even there 🤔.
I wonder if the bitterness is expressing the toughness of the dragon 🐲.
I liked it: ☺️

Good evening, Wakata🌛I couldn't buy the Tasake zodiac label this time due to fridge convenience😱I was curious about your opinion of bitterness, but your review sounds delicious😊The sense of embroidery on the back of the scajan made me laugh in agreement🤣.

Aladdin, thank you here as well 😊The strong bitterness seems to be a hot topic, but I didn't particularly care for it either, so I guess it's just a preference thing. My husband didn't rave about it that much either, so I guess it suited us 😋.

Good morning, Nemuchi 😃Thank you for sharing the feeling of embroidery on my back 😊That's exactly what happened with the tiger 😁Tasake, the taste in the mouth is more impressive than the bitterness afterwards, it's delicious 👍💕.

It was yesterday.
As soon as bouken-san told me about the first lineup of my beloved sake brewery, my switch flipped from work mode to closing mode, so I invited my husband who was still on his New Year's vacation and jumped on the train to Tennoji after work😅.
Because it's 700 yen for Jyushiyo ⁉️ and 500 yen for Tasyu zodiac label ⁉️
I called in advance and was told that the restaurant had been full since it opened, but when I got there, I was lucky to find a table open ✌️
Jyushidai is available at 、、、、、、 and ❣️.
I ordered it without hesitation❤️
As expected of Jyushidai, not only the aroma, but also the atmosphere it creates is spectacular💕.
The taste is mellow.
It has a soft mouthfeel, a mild sweetness, and a savory, concentrated rice flavor. The sharp acidity adds a bitter aftertaste like citrus peel. But this bitterness is also pleasant ❤️😋
It was too good 😂It was a wonderful time at the beginning of the year. Thank you bouken for teaching me 😭.

When your favorite restaurant has a sake you want to drink including Jyushiyo, you have no choice but to go there 😁I could feel the joy and the feeling of being soaked when you could drink it 😊It was kind of you to invite your husband too instead of keeping it to yourself ☺️

It was the only storehouse on a university campus in Japan, right?
This sake also had a refreshing sweetness like muscat. This sake can be enjoyed with food or on its own.
Japanese>English
bouken
It tastes like a fusion of classic and modern flavors, the same as the impression I had when I drank a bottle of nama-shu before.
It has a muscat-like flavor and a complex taste.
The nama-shu had a strong taste, but this one is a bit milder.
It would be interesting to try it warmed up.
Not my personal favorite 🤔.

Sake ordered by Umaisan.
I had a little bit to cleanse my palate of immobility😅.
It's been a super long time since I've had ozeyuki😁.
Fresh, fruity, juicy and accented with acidity, just like the label on the back says.

It's been a long time since I've had a steadfast drink 😅.
2001 is when I was in my second year of high school 🤔.
I asked the waiter (or is it the manager?) what it tasted like before I ordered it 😁. I asked the waiter (or is it the manager?) about the taste before ordering 😁.
I was told that even though it is an old sake, it is kept in a warehouse and has only recently been shipped, so it is surprisingly easy to drink without feeling that it has aged that much.
It was easy to drink, with a strong aged aroma, but it had aged nicely. It is still very peculiar though 🤣.
I thought it might be the kind of sake that Hirupeko would like. She was drinking it while saying 😊.

There was a sake I didn't know about, so I asked for it.
It was a sake from the Sugiyuu brewery.
The rice used was Ginpu.
Fruity and gorgeously sweet.
Fresh, sweet and delicious 😋.
Sweeter and more modern sake than I had imagined.
It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and spiciness, and I really liked it. I wonder where I can buy this in Kansai 🤔.

Sashi-Drinking with Mr. Umaisan and Mr. Other Sake 😁.
I haven't had this since I drank it at home about 3 years ago.
Back then it wasn't a blink-and-you'll-miss-it brand like it is now, but now you can't buy it all at once💦.
I knew it was good 😋.
Juicy sweetness and fresh gas. The acidity is also impressive.
It's unfiltered raw sake, but it's not heavy and easy to drink.
