パーム農家Akatombo of Senkori. It's been a long time since I've tasted Akatombo. Amazing, the aroma of grapes like wine. Well, the acidity spreads out in a sizzling way and is very tasty. The temperature is high today, so the strong acidity really soaks through. It is really great that Sentori's sake is relatively easy to obtain even though it is this good. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, palm farmer 😃.
We too have a red dragonfly waiting for us after a long time 🤗I'm really grateful to Senkou 🥹I'm also thankful that you can usually buy them in Utsunomiya 🥹. パーム農家Thanks for your comments, Jay & Nobby. I'm focusing on sake from familiar locales, but I can't help but buy Senkou. And the satisfaction exceeds my expectations as a matter of course. It is truly amazing. フニャコ2025/10 Ajinomatidya Limited かぶとむしSenkin's are all right原酒生酒無濾過 フニャコ2025/10 Ajinomatidya Limited パーム農家Late summer vacation this week. Kiyomasa's hiyaoroshi wine colors the weekday afternoon with its golden color.
Soft aroma reminiscent of muscat. The rich sweetness of the wine, like that of a muskmelon, fills the mouth. Even after swallowing, it leaves a lingering aftertaste in the mouth.
I was happy to be able to drink it in the afternoon on a weekday. And to be able to drink my favorite autumn sake from my favorite brewery, Kimasa...what could be better? こゆきI haven't used points in a long time. こゆきIt's refreshing, but the flavor is just as good as it should be. パーム農家An original project sake of Ajinomatidaya in Nakano Ward, Tokyo, a sake for the summer heat, developed between summer and autumn sake. And it is my favorite Kisho from Akiruno City, Tokyo.
It has a sweet heady aroma like a mixture of melon and banana. The attack is smooth and sweet. The taste is quite rich. But strangely enough, after swallowing, it gives a light impression. This is probably due to the refreshing bitterness that lingers in the mouth.
What is this? Yes, it does feel light after swallowing. This sake has a mysterious charm. パーム農家Long time no see Kokugon, a low-alcohol summer sake Swallow Label. The aroma is modest and refreshing. The sweetness is moderate and the light acidity spreads. Although it is low in alcohol, it still has the firmness that is typical of Kokugon. In fact, it has such a core that one wonders if it is really low-alcohol. It has a core. I really like Kokugen. こゆきThey say it passed the store's standards. Dry but refreshing. Minami純米吟醸 おりがらみ 吟の夢 生酒純米吟醸生酒おりがらみ パーム農家Minami no Nama-zake, an original summer sake from Azino-Machidaya in Tokyo's Nakano Ward. This is Machidaya's original sake, which is a departure from summer sake, which is too late for summer sake, and too early for autumn sake.
It has a fruity aroma. But I could also sense the strength of the sake that has been laid down for some time. This is a surprise! A strong fizzy sensation hits you first. Not as strong as hiyaoroshi. Not as strong as hiyaoroshi, not as light as summer sake, and with an exquisite flavor. This is a bottle that can only be made at this time of year. And I have never tasted such a fizzy sensation that comes on ahead of the others. パーム農家Mt. Haruna in a cup of sake. Harunasan, a model of Mt. Akina that the tofu shop's Hachiroku runs through. The label also looks like a local sake. I have fond memories of visiting Harunayama with my wife many years ago before we were married.
It has a strong alcoholic aroma, which is typical of honjozo sake. This is a royal roadside honjozo sake that is easy to enjoy and has no peculiarities. Oh my, this is a good sake. I've only had Gunma Izumi sake in Gunma, but this is really good. I guess the main sake is called "Ohai" (大盃). I'll keep that in mind. パーム農家Asahiyama cup sake. As is typical of Niigata sake, the taste is light and dry, but there is a rather firm sweetness and umami at first. It also has a melon-like flavor. Sake from famous breweries has a characteristic that seems to be popular with everyone, even for such a reasonably priced sake.
I bought this bottle to prepare for a trip to Nagaoka this month, but it was just a delicious and wonderful bottle. フニャコ2025/8 Ajinomatidya Limited こゆきUA Kuwagata Bubble Sake. I went to buy it when I heard it was on sale at the store! The bubbles are amazing😍. 
パーム農家Green label of Zanso Hourai. The aroma is almost imperceptible. Yes, yes, it is spicy. Firmly spicy. The faint glimmer of sweetness in the attack is also good. It is like a sake version of green gum. It's like taking a forest bath.
Recently, I have come to like the expression "dry" or "spicy" more and more. I interpret this to mean that it is not pungent. I think it means "dry" in a relative sense to sake with a strong sweet taste. Isn't it a wonderful and very Japanese expression when you think about it that way? flos_lingua_estGood evening.
This is so delicious and I love it!
And I agree with the expressions "green gum" and "forest bathing", I love it!
I totally agree with you about the poetic expression of "dry" in sake! パーム農家Thank you for your comment, flos_lingua_est. I am glad that you share my feelings about the dry expression. Yes, yes, it is poetic. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, palm farmer 😃.
Drinking forest bath🌳this must be a refreshing bottle 😌.
I like to drink dry and refreshing after a long day of strong flavor 😋It's good to have a good balance 🤗. パーム農家Good morning, Jay & Nobby. It was an attractive sake with a clear, refreshing dry taste with a hint of junmai-like umami and sweetness that made it hard to find the right moment to stop.
A little bit of two or three different kinds to keep the balance is ideal 😌. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
