Re-posting as I'm getting used to sake crocodiles
This was one of the first bottles that got me hooked on sake and introduced me to Sentori.
It was a shock to me because I am of the generation that has been drinking only what we now call "classic" sake since I was young.
It has a pleasant fruit-like aroma, a balance of sweetness, bitterness and acidity, and a sharpness that is typical of Japanese sake.
I thought, "This is already white wine!
Today's sake is too delicious!
The apple🍎 tag looks adorable 😍 and we brought it with us feeling fresh and perfect for us 😆.
Opening the bottle....
Oh, is it a deep sweet aroma?
One sip and 😳! Yummmm!
There's a hint of sweetness, but what can I say, the acidity is outstanding! And a slight tanginess on the tongue 😊.
It's so fresh and easy to drink, and it gets even better as you go along 😋.
Fresh, fresh, fresh 😁.
I love this summer sake👍
Maybe we like apple 🍎 acid 🤔
J&N we both live in Chiba prefecture, but we only drank Kangiku so far 😓.
Ok! Let's drink other Chiba Prefecture sake❗️
But now we're comparing different types of sake 🤣.
Jay & Nobby, I couldn't read "Koshi" at first and asked for "Koushi" 🤣.
If you like apple-like sake, I highly recommend Toyo cup and Hato Masamune junmai ginjo 😍.
Love Aomori ❤️
Good evening, Mr. Manachie 😃.
I brought the same Asahi Kohshin and sparkling Kijoshu with me today as I'm sure Manachie would recommend it 👍
Looking forward to it 😆.
J&N, thank you very much for your favs on Noise TL. Kangiku-Kouji is too major, but if you have a chance, please try "Terada Honke". It may not be to your liking, but it was one of the three best in R3BY.
Hi Harry Sakeboy 😃.
It was delicious - I hope to drink it again next year👍.
We both have parents in Noda City, Chiba Prefecture, and there has long been a kinoene soy sauce, but I didn't know the kanji 😓.
Cool to see you standing up for sake😍.
Yo❗️Ohna🎉!
This is actually my first Dana outside of sparkling!
Mmmm... a clean and elegant aroma 😌.
When you take a sip, you can feel the full-bodied flavor.
I wonder if this is the taste of sake rice.
It has an alkaline taste, but the smooth rice flavor is spreading.
Yes, it stands up well, but the inside is also great👍!
Just delicious 😋.
I've been drinking a lot of Akita sake these days.
I still love Tochigi😊.
Mr. tkmts . Good evening 😃
Yes!!! It's deeply nodding deliciousness 👍.
It's as good as Nagano sake 😆.
Having said that, I have 3 bottles of Nagano sake in the fridge 🤣.
Tochigi love
Opening caution and it took me quite a while to open it 😅.
It's 8% alcohol by volume so pretty light 😁.
It's a bit sweet and a bit bitter, with a little bit of schwash 😆.
It's a juice 😆.
Like T.KISO's place, I'm getting to like sparkling at J&N 😋.
And with Mr. Yamamoto, you can't go wrong❗️.
I carefully opened and closed the bottle repeatedly and opened it! I spilled a little 😢.
But the bubbles poured into the glass are nice!
When I take a sip, oh❗️this ain't sweet 👍
I think most of the sparkling wine I've had so far have been sweet and tasty, but this one is different!
And there is a sharp bitterness too!
This is a dry sparkling explosion 💥!
We both love it 😊.
It's so good that it soaks into your body after a long day of moving 😌.
Perfect with grilled meat🥩 for recovery!
This is behoma grade recovery 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I've been enjoying the sparkling wine lately, not sweet, but dry and tasty ❣️.
My partner is already telling me to buy a bottle of schwash when we go to the liquor store together😅
Good evening, Square & Enix!
Behoma-grade goodness⁉️I mean, if you drink this, you can forget about any fatigue and injury⁉️.
It's a dangerous drink, I'll try not to drink it🤣.
Good evening, Mana & Chi 😃.
(honda's style😆)
Yes!!! You know exactly what I'm talking about 😊.
All HP is restored 👍.
And if I had a lula, I could fly to any liquor store in a heartbeat 🤔.
On the way back from my parents' house, my daughter and I went to Ikeda Sake Shop for the first time. My daughter's choice was the "I love sushi" guy and the blue Takachiyo. The sushi one has a cute label though💦.
The spring sake has disappeared and the summer sake is on its way! The blue bottle is so cool and summery 😁.
It is a flat polished unadjusted summer raw sake with 48% milled rice and 16% alcohol by volume. The aroma is cool and refreshing, or maybe it's the color that makes it smell like cider 🤔I personally don't like the aroma, so it's a little hard to drink... but the wife says it's delicious. After a few days the aroma settled down and I could taste the sweetness followed by sourness and bitterness and I also enjoyed it😊It's interesting how it tastes different as time goes by after opening the bottle😆That was delicious! Thanks for the treat 🙏.
Good evening, Mr. chape 😃.
When we go back to Utsunomiya from my parents' house, we also stop by Ikeda-san for a short detour 🙄 We are kind of going the same way 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌝.
Same here!!! 😆 I'm in Gunma and I use Tochigi Kaido or New 4 so I stopped by when I came back on New 4 😁 I still haven't bought any sake from Gunma 🤣.
Good morning, CHAPE ☀️
I see you went to Ikeda Sake Shop❣️Danna has been taking me there, but I can't go there alone, that place 😅.
Beautiful summery blue bottles ✨
Good morning, Tsubu 🌅.
I saw Imi on Twitter so I thought maybe? And I went there 😅I guess you have to know where to go 💦It's getting hot...it's already summer ☀️.
My daughter and son are home for GW and it's been a long time since we've had a family of four toast! I'm so happy😊
After quenching our thirst with beer, we opened the bottle â
Mmmm, it smells faintly sweet 😌.
When you take a sip, it has a good balance of sweetness and umami.
It leaves a nice taste on the tongue.
It's refreshing and can be enjoyed on its own 😋 No, this is delicious ❗️.
And I wanted to try the dried mango recommended by MikI and asked my daughter, "Where is it sold? I asked my daughter "where is it sold?" and she said "at FamilyMart", so I bought it right away!
Oh, it's so good 😳
I've never had this oceanic drink before, but it goes well with it 👍 Also, this dried mango is delicious!
I was impressed 🤔 that this kind of combination exists 😄.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😍.
Yuki no Bijin, a beautiful sake that lives up to its name 😍.
Dried fruits and sake, so stylish!
I'm doing smoked kan and sake ❤️.
Good morning MikI 😃.
Thanks for the recommendation too 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️
J&N was my first time to try dried mango as well 😆 It gives me a wider range of entrées to match👍.
Good morning Jay & Nobby ☀️Good morning to you and your family 🥂Good toast 🎶Good drinks will taste even better 😊You can learn a lot of information about sakewa, like pairing it with dried mango ❣️.
Good morning, Tsubu 😃.
Hi!!! It's really a blissful time to drink with the family 😊 but good sake and good times go by fast 🥺 I guess next time will be Obon!
Until then, I'll be gathering good information at Sake-no-wa 😆.
🥁🥁🥁Tantakatan🎊
We too opened "Tintin ♪ Tintin ♪ Tankan Watarifune"!
Hi! As you all said, I can't find Ori 😳
Can someone please find Ori 😆.
So here we go, the bottle is open!
Oh, the sweet aroma is so good!
One sip and it's quite sweet! The sweet flavor is spreading fast 😋.
As you continue to drink, the juiciness is greatly increased with a nice acidity.
You can also enjoy a fresh aftertaste with a full-bodied sweetness 😊.
This is delicious 😌!
This is my second bottle of Shippuda sake, but I'm going to drink different ones👍
Good evening, Jaynobi 😃.
This is delicious 😋I drank it tongue in cheek the other day, and this packaged sake was number one👍I would love to repeat it again if I could. Now for a bottle 👍.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
I see you guys have some good packaged sake here! I'd love to try it😊I'm getting more and more awestruck by the rice differences💦.
Good evening Jay & Nobby😄!
This is the first sake rice I've seen in a price tag sake ‼️It's interesting how sake rice can make a totally different sake 😆👍I'll definitely buy some if I get the chance 👍.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! I'm so glad you could join us 😄
I see you went for the short-stalked ferry! 😆This is a very tasty and repeatable brand for me too 😋.
Hi t.arai 😃
Yes, there are a lot of different types of packing tags, but I'm sure you're right.
(We've only had 2 bottles 😆)
We'd love to have you with us😊.
Jay & Nobby, here too ☀️.
I've never had a bottle of sake before....
It looks delicious 🎵
I'll try it next time 😊I'll take you to the short boat when I see it 😉👍.
Hououmida after a long time
I saw Hiedano's post a while ago and thought "I have to drink it😤" so I picked it up and bought it.
Oh, it soaks in😌.
I don't feel the sourness, so the sweetness wins, but it's just right.
I've never had a problem with that.
Easy to drink and I want to keep drinking it.
It's a little different from the Hououmida I drank before, so I'd like to try another kind.
Tochigi Love
The label is unique and my daughter, who was just back home, asked me if it was by Yayoi Kusama. That's right😊.
I'm sure you'll be surprised at how much carbonation there is in the bottle.
Let's celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary with our daughter!
We both forgot that yesterday was our anniversary, but my daughter came all the way home and made dinner for us 🥰 Thank you so much 😭.
My tears made it salty, but the drink was a little sour and refreshing, with a nice strong carbonation. We all said "yummy!"😋❗️It was the perfect taste for our anniversary.
It's been 28 years since I've been here, and it's only a matter of time before I'm done drinking 😌😢.
Let's continue to enjoy good drinks together with Jay & Nobby😊.
In the background is everyone who got a good deal on their first liquor store visit in a while.
Looking forward to drinking this line up😋.
My daughter was here and it was our anniversary, so I couldn't join the remote drinking party, but it looks like fun, so maybe next time I'll join in!
Thank you 😊.
Thank you 😊 She's still a dangerous and sometimes selfish girl, but I'm glad she remembers these things!
I'm glad she remembers these things!
Congratulations, Jay & Nobby 🎉 But you have a great daughter! We have a daughter around the same age and she's never said anything like that to us 😅 I'm so proud of you!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! 😄
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary... 🎉gratulation️You have a wonderful daughter who is kind and thoughtful of her parents... 😊We should have another remote drinking party, if you have time... 😆👍

Please continue to enjoy good drinks with the two of you 😊.
A good flow from Kamogane brought me to Senkou!
When I saw that everyone had mentioned it, I wanted to get my hands on a bottle, but the liquor stores in my neighborhood didn't have it, so I took a detour from my parents' house and found only one bottle at the regular Ikeda Sake Store! It was the last bottle, so I couldn't help but say "thank goodness" and the shopkeeper laughed at me😅.
It's juicy and has a nice acidity.
I knew Senkou was good!
It's light and refreshing.
So, it's gone again soon 😢.
I've been drinking a lot of local Tochigi sake lately.
Tochigi love
Good evening, Tsubu-chan 😀.
Ehhh 😳 I didn't know that! Thanks for the info😊.
I've never been to Hitomi-san, so I'll have to try it next time. I've never been to Hitomi-san, so I'll have to try it sometime.
Oh, we also went on a liquor store tour yesterday afternoon, from Mashida to Yamahito to Mekada! Yamahito-san was there just now😊! We've met or something😳!
