Winter Nigorinpic 11
Annual tradition😇
On New Year's Day, we bring red and white sake to Kaorin's parents' house...although it is on the upper floor of the same apartment building😇
Kaorin's father usually only drinks beer, so we tried to choose a low-alcohol type sake that would be easy to drink😇.
First of all, the red sake is LOVE PINK from Taiebijin, which was easy to drink and tasty last year😇.
But ❓😅😅
It looks totally different from last year 🤣.
Last year it was nigori sake and when mixed it was a beautiful cloudy pink, but this year it was an ogara-mi type and it was a clear pink 😀.
The appearance was quite different but the taste was delicious 😇
I'm glad my dad was happy to drink it too😇.

Happy New Year, Wakata-san 😀
Since we are in the middle of the Nigorinpik, I tried to make the choice as much as possible so that even those who are not used to sake can drink it 🤣.
I'm grateful to have you prepare the Osechi for me every year😇

Happy New Year!
Thank you to all of you who continue to give us your handsome hands. We look forward to working with you again this year.
Very fruity, with a refreshing sweet and sour taste, and a fair amount of bitterness. It was delicious and tasty and stable takachi-yo.
My wife scolds me every day for reducing the amount of sake in the fridge, but I bought this bottle because it was a rare occasion when I was asked by a customer to drink it.
The liquor store we usually go to was sold out immediately, so when we went to the city for the Daishichi Fair, we stopped by Sake no Yamamoto and got it.

Thank you, ma-ki. I saw other people mentioning this sake, and I thought to myself, "Yes, it's New Year's, it's the Year of the Snake, this is it, and it's delicious.

It's been a long time since I've had a YENOMI. I bought it at "Sake no Yamamoto" in Minami.
Mimuro Sugi Dio Abita" Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Harajuku (Yamada Nishiki) [Imanishi Shuzo, Nara].
It has a refreshing acidity on the palate. By the time it reaches the mid-palate, the umami in the back of the mouth quietly asserts itself. The acidity and umami are in excellent balance.
It has a crispness that leaves only a dull, echoing aftertaste, and the taste quickly dissipates.
It seems to go well with anything you eat, strong or light.

A series of drinks brought to a company drinking party without permission.
It was purchased at "Sake no Yamamoto" in Shimanouchi, Minami.
Kamo Nishiki Shagafuda-shu Kohsuisen" Junmai Daiginjo Shiboritate Unrefined Nama-shu (Omachi 80, Yamadanishiki 20) [Kamo Nishiki Shuzo, Niigata].
The mouthfeel is slightly sweet. Toward the mid-palate, it has a fruity acidity. It is slow to the last.
As it sinks in, the sweet, deep flavor quietly seeps in.
The balance between the gorgeous aroma, sweetness, and acidity is exquisite.
Surprisingly low alcohol (13%) with this satisfaction.

A series of drinks that I took the liberty of bringing to a company drinking party. It was purchased at "Sake no Yamamoto" in Shimanouchi, Minami.
Kaze no Mori ALPHA 1: Door to the Next Chapter" Junmai Unfiltered, Unpasteurized Nama-Shu (Akitsuho) [Aburacho Shuzo, Nara].
As one would expect from Kaze no Mori. And because it is an alpha variety, it has a pleasant effervescence from the mouthfeel.
It is basically fruity, but there is a bit of bitterness along with sourness at the mouth.
However, it is within the range of fruity. It is somewhat refreshing with a citrusy bitterness.
From the mid-palate, umami spreads to the tongue, mixing with the bitterness and acidity to create a harmony of flavors. The taste slowly extends to the aftertaste.
Oishiiiiiiiiiiiii♡!

日本酒らしい、キリッとした辛口な印象。吟醸香とかセメダイン臭も感じます。甘みはそれほど前に出ずに、最後に来るほんのわずかな苦味がアクセントに感じました。
今夜のメニュー、おでんにぴったり。料理に合わせやすい食中酒です。

I have wanted to drink Kuheiji for a long time. I tried it for the first time in a wine glass as recommended on the label.
I paired it with tonight's menu: meat tofu, simmered potatoes, and sakataki cream cheese.
The wine has a slight alcohol taste and a clear acidity. It has a refreshing sweetness, but not too sweet. The bitterness in the aftertaste is pleasant.
I was told that the impression changes with time after the bottle is opened, so I am looking forward to the changes from tomorrow onward.
Japanese>English
ともとも
The balance of sweetness and acidity is good, and the fruity aroma, though discreet, is favorable.
I paired it with tonight's menu: pork belly radish, fried tofu from Tochio, and green pepper with salted kelp. My wife bought 551 Hourai pork buns for me after dinner.
Personally, I really like this type of sake.

The slight effervescence is pleasant, like that of a rum, and the freshness, reminiscent of Japanese pears, is also nice.

Immediately after the bottle was opened, it had a fruity aroma reminiscent of melon and a clean, elegant sweetness that was gorgeous.
Two days after opening the bottle, the sweetness became moderate and the banana aroma became stronger. It has a slightly cloying image.

Every morning when I get to work, I do a corona antigen test 🤣.
This has been the routine for me when I go to work during the quarantine period, but tomorrow morning will be the last antigen test as Kaorin's quarantine period is finally over 😀.
Kaorin finally said she wanted to drink sake, so today we decided on Mrs. Kaorin's favorite, Kido... a special junmai of Kido, which is the first sake we have ever had in our house 😀.
We compared it with a heated bottle of Ariiso Akebono, which had been opened earlier, and a hiya of Hanayuup 😀.
The Kido Omachi was first served cold... ❓It doesn't have the usual Kido fruity taste at all 😅.
This one has to be heated up 😀.
So we compared the heated Ariiso Akebono and the heated Kido Oumachi, and the heated Kido Oumachi tasted just like the usual gorgeous Kido 😀.
I thought this sake was my favorite heated 😀.
I found the comic Sayaka doing an interview at an izakaya I frequent 😀.
She drank the 14yo and was very impressed 😀.

Hello Yasbay and Kaorin😃.

Hi Yasbay and Kaolin 🐦 We can toast together from today! I am so glad you are able to drink 😊.
I remember liking this Kido very much and I never thought of heating it up ❣️, so I would like to drink it again 😊.

Thank you Jay & Nobby 😀.
But it's still risky to eat across from each other, so we'll be toasting in separate rooms for the rest of the week 🤣.
Kaorin is still very resistant to heated sake, so we'll let her get used to it little by little 😀.

Thank you, Aladdin 😀
Kaorin is still not very good at heating sake, so I'd like to do a lab with sake that she won't have any resistance to, based on the opinions of everyone at Sake-no-wa 😀.

Thank you, Pon 😀.
We will be toasting in separate rooms for the time being due to the risk of infection 🤣.

AKABU SNOW EXTRA 2023
Brewed with the imagination of the next generation
Brewing sake for the next generation to enjoy casually
I'm not sure I should buy it: 🙄⁉️
Definitely not the next generation 😭
Even if the brewer imagines it that way
I'm free to drink it 😭😆‼️
Definitely easy to drink and suitable for young people😊.
The top clear has a strong acidity and bitterness
but it's refreshing and tasty 😋.
Mixing the lees makes the taste smoother...
The gentle sweetness and strong acidity fuse together
and the taste is round and harmonious... 🤤.
If it tastes good, it tastes good even if you drink it
It's delicious 👍🤣‼️

Mimuro-Sugi Junmai-Ginjo Omachi Hiyoshi Oroshi
The second hiyaoroshi sake is Mimuro-sugi.
It is a sake with a beautiful aftertaste.
After the juicy sweetness spreads
After the juicy sweetness spreads out, the sweetness disappears quickly... 😌.
It has a full-bodied mouthfeel, yet it is refreshing without being overpowering.

AKATAKE Junmai Hiyadoroshi
I wanted to drink an autumn sake 🍁.
I chose Akabu ⚜️it's been a while!
It has a mild mouthfeel
Gentle sweetness 😋😋.
Gradually the bitterness shows its face... 😳
It cuts through nicely ✨.
It's like a calm, honors sake 😌.
It is better to drink it at a slightly higher temperature
It is better to drink it a little warmer than chilled.
the flavors opened up and became more gorgeous 🌸.

The second bottle I bought at Sake no Yamamoto last week.
Akatake Junmai Ginjo
There were many kinds, but since it was my first time drinking it, I chose the orthodox Junmai Ginjo.
It's delicious!
The aroma and the first sip are fruity, but the aftertaste is strong.
As the name of the sake suggests, it has a nice martial feel.
It was an interesting contrast to yesterday's Hououmida.
It was worth the heavy effort of bringing home two 1-square-bottle bottles!
We're happy again today!

My wife also likes sake, so we always buy a bottle.
She keeps it in the vegetable room of the refrigerator.
When I secretly bought a second bottle, my wife said
"Why don't you buy a refrigerator?
Oh, I can buy one⁉️.
I bought an Iris-Oyama 93L.
It can hold 6 bottles and 4 No.4 bottles.
I was so excited to visit the sake shop Yamamoto 20 minutes walk from my workplace.
We had a wide variety of items, so we were very excited!
I bought 2 bottles of sake!
The train on the way home was heavy💦.
My wife came to pick me up at the nearest station.
I opened one of the bottles, Hououmita!
It's refreshing and easy to drink!
I can drink as much as I want!
When should I open the other one?
I'm happy today.
