I went back to Osaka for 2 weeks from the day before yesterday.
So I bought a bottle of fuchinsai, which was released the day before yesterday, and went home!
Like Nabeshima, fuchinsai is often seen in Fukuoka, but rarely seen at liquor stores in Osaka.
Cold sake
Gentle aroma
As described, it is indeed more stimulating and has a more acidic aftertaste than the kawamatsuri I drank before.
To use an analogy, kawamatsuri is a common soda water and fuchinsai is Wilkinson.
That's how different the gaseous sensation is from kawamatsuri.
I paired it with pizza and french fries, and it went very well together.
Buy at the liquor store
Time of year when summer sake is running low at all liquor stores ☀️
I happened to see it and bought it!
Cold sake
Elegant pear-like aroma
Neither heavy nor light.
Well-balanced umami and very easy to drink.
The volume of the sake is slightly reduced, so it is light and easy to drink.
We served it with white fish sashimi.
Curry and Pairing Sake (3)
If curry goes well with beer, highballs, and other carbonated drinks, I thought it would go well with sparkling sake, so I bought this.
Cold sake
Cool and refreshing aroma
Apple-like acidity and elegant sweetness
Stimulating and refreshing carbonation
The aftertaste is crisp and clean.
However, if you ask if it goes well with curry, it is subtle.
The richness of curry and the acidity of sake are mismatched.
It would go well with yakitori salt or bonito tataki.
Today, July 3, is Wakanami (7.3) day!
So we drank it right after the date changed.
I've had junmai ginjo before, but this time it was junmai.
Cold sake
Ripe melon-like aroma
Slight gasiness.
Slightly acidic, which I felt in the Junmai Ginjo
Good weight of rice.
As the saké progresses, the gaseous sensation becomes accustomed and the taste becomes more subdued.
It goes well with dishes that are not that rich.
Personally, I prefer this to Junmai Ginjo.
Purchased for 500 yen less using a coupon as before.
I've had the classic series Omachi, but this is my first time to buy the regular series.
Cold sake
The bottle was opened with a nice pop!
Juicy fruit aroma.
There is a strong sense of gas characteristic of Nabeshima.
The taste is rich with concentrated flavor and sweetness.
Light at the beginning with a heavy aftertaste.
It goes well with meat dishes due to its firm and well-defined flavor.
When I go to Hakata Station on business, coupons for souvenir stores and restaurants that can be used until September are sometimes handed out.
I bought a coupon for Sumiyoshi Sake Shop at Hakata Station because it is also available!
You can buy 2,000 yen sake for only 1,500 yen, which is quite a bargain!
Among the limited collaboration sake of Yuma, Toichi, Hana-no-Dew, Mitsui no Kotobuki, and Garden no Uguisu, I personally think this is my favorite flavor!
The aroma is somewhat subdued
The taste is clean and clear, but the gentle umami of the rice is still there.
Nagasaki is a light sake among Rokuyuoshu, which tend to be heavier in comparison.
Good as a food sake.
It goes well with light dishes.
Purchased at a liquor store.
Rarity is high in some areas.
Drink cold.
Aroma is a little floral.
The taste is sweet and a little mild, typical of Japanese sake from Fukuoka Prefecture. It also has a characteristic acidity that comes out in the middle part of the taste.
It was served with chicken tataki. It has a taste that you will never get tired of.
Recommended even for sake beginners.
I bought it the other day after drinking it at the store and enjoying it.
It has a refreshing grape-like sweetness, and although it is 13% alcohol, it is still a pure sake.
Even my husband, who is not a big sake drinker, enjoys this one.
It goes well with cheese and sweets.

Rice polishing ratio: 39
Alcohol content: 15
Purchased at Sumiyoshi Shuhan Hakata Station Store
Silent when opened
No gassiness
Slightly sweet melon-like top note
The same fruity aroma as the first sip, the soft umami and sweetness of the rice spread with a mild lactic acidity, and the slight bitterness and spiciness of the alcohol make the wine finish smoothly while retaining the sweetness of the rice.
The aroma is modest, well-balanced, and elegant. It is a perfect match for a meal, and also tastes great on its own.
It goes well with Kameda's ume-nori rolls.
Masaaki Sapporo-san, good evening 🌙😃❗I like the drinking iron 😃✨"Seagull" face is cute too 😆Wife's score is 6...........................strictly strict 😅.
Hi Masaki S apporo 😀
Sake must taste even better than usual with the view from the train window 😀.
Toichi is a sake I've been curious about for a while now, but I haven't gotten to it yet😅.
Good evening, Yoohee-san! I don't have time to relax and have a drink after changing to the Shinkansen (sweat).
I think the previous direct Fukuoka-Nagasaki seagull was better 😁.
Purchased at a liquor store.
Rarity is high outside Kyushu area.
Cold sake.
Slightly fruity and crisp aroma.
Calm but with a bit of dryness, literally. This dryness matches the gaseous taste and is very tasty.
The lingering aftertaste is quite long there.
We had it with kampachi and hamachi sashimi. It seems to go well with fish dishes.
Suitable for intermediate level sake drinkers.
Today we had yellowtail sashimi that we received from our hometown tax payment, so I went to buy sake for the first time in a while.
HASAMI=Made in Hasami (Nagasaki Prefecture), this sake has a mild and elegant ginjo aroma and a good balance of umami and acidity.
I was told to try one with a lower alcohol content, which would go well with sashimi. The palate-pleasing fruity and rice flavor complemented the food and was delicious.
No daikon or shiso leaves, not a good presentation 🤣.
100% Yamada-Nishiki used
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 13 degrees (undiluted sake)
720㎖ ¥1,800, tax not included
I bought this on my way home from work because I wanted something low in alcohol and sparkling.
It's been a while since I've had a Garden Ugly, but this is my first sparkling 😊.
The sparkling is fermented in the bottle, and I carefully opened the bottle by repeatedly loosening and closing the screw-type lid.
When you pour it into a glass, the bubbles rise up in a swish, red yeast pink color 🩷.
Sweet aroma and refreshing mouthfeel, my favorite type.
Perfect for this time of year and delicious. ☺️
