Kaze no Mori WEEKS 2024 is being held at Daimaru Shinsaibashi store in Osaka until 10/6. This is a sake made from Kaze no Mori's dewy leaf wind 507, which is flash-frozen with a special technology and kept for 3 years. Let's take a "superb time trip! The appearance is silver-green, almost transparent. It has a gaseous feel with faint gas bubbles in the glass. The aroma is fresh and gorgeous, with a chili chili wind forest aroma. Fresh pear with fine acidity, ruby grapefruit, nearly ripe banana, and young melon. There is also a beautiful rice aroma about the size of Kamishinko. The gasiness is gentle and the texture is smooth and smooth. A rich sweetness spreads, followed by a mildly stimulating acidity. The beautiful umami of the rice flows with a slight bitter flavor and disappears, leaving behind a pleasant acidic stimulation. The lingering aftertaste is long and gentle. It is beautiful and rich. Perhaps due to its ice-cold storage, there is absolutely no browning of the exterior or aged aroma, and the wine is still fresh and gassy, but the texture and taste are round and concentrated due to the aging process. In a sense, it's like a beautiful combination of aging, and it's my favorite among the Kaze no Mori wines I've had so far. It was very tasty. ☺️

Good evening, Aladdin. I see you went to Kaze no Mori Weeks. It's a valuable experience to have a beautifully aged sake that is flash-frozen and aged for 3 years 😆 I wish I could go somewhere to peek into Shinsaibashi 💨.

Hi Aladdin, good evening. I see you went to Wind Forest WWEEKS ⤴️ I was curious about this one but couldn't drink it 💧. The expressions in your review are too nice to look at and drool 🤤.

Hi Hirupeko 😃 As a fan of Kaze no Mori, I had to go 😁. There are many theories about what makes a good aged sake, it depends on one's taste and TPO, but this is a sake that even those who don't like aged sake should try: ☺️

Hi ma-ki-😃 I'm not sure if Kaze no Mori jacked up the Daimaru Shinsaibashi store, but it's an interesting initiative by a single brewery! I'm still curious about the limited edition sake you had for your wife's birthday, which I haven't had yet 🤤.

Hi Aladdin😃. It's an event worth going to just because you can only drink in the beautiful windy forest 🥹 that is flash frozen 🤗 Kansai is good to have such events in abundance 👍.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃. I'm a bad person who just can't resist limited or behind-the-scenes 😁. Kansai also has more events, but I have too many things I want to go to Tokyo and Fukuoka events due to my relationship with my guess warehouse 😌.

2023 Year in Review. Purchased at Grand Cercle, Liquor Shop, B2F, Daimaru Shinsaibashi. Shin Tsuchida Happy Hill" completely additive-free brewing, raw yeast (land rice cultivated Happy Hill) [Tsuchida Shuzo, Gunma]. We liked Shin Tsuchida K that we drank a while ago, so we chose this from the same brand. Rice is usually grown in rice paddies, but the rice used to make this one was grown in a field of soil! Historically, upland rice is said to be older than paddy rice. The first taste is a dry and mild one, followed by a mellow but firm taste. After that, a mellow but firm umami flavor sinks in. The aftertaste is light and light for a flavorful wine. It is very easy to drink and tastes great with strong dishes such as meat and oily foods.

2023 Year in Review. Purchased at Grand Cercle, Liquor Shop, B2F, Daimaru Shinsaibashi. Mutsu Hachisen Green Label" Special Junmai [Hachinohe Shuzo, Aomori]. It has been aged moderately after being laid down for the summer, giving it a rounded, angular mouthfeel. It has a moderate sweetness with a hint of fragrance and acidity lurking in the depths. The stable, down-to-earth taste continues without any deterioration from the first sip to the aftertaste after swallowing, and slowly fades away, leaving a lingering aftertaste. Come to think of it, this green label is the first Mutsu Hassen that I have ever tasted, and it is the reason why Mutsu Hassen became my favorite.

2023 Year in Review. Purchased at Grand Cercle, Liquor Shop, B2F, Daimaru Shinsaibashi. Shin Tsuchida K" Kijozo-shu Brewing [Tsuchida Shuzo, Gunma]. To be frank, it is a very sweet sake, but at the same time, it has a strong umami taste. This is something I have never had before. Although it is not a fruity type, I think it is something that even beginners can enjoy. This is probably the first time I've had Tsuchida's sake, but it's one of my favorites right away.

Mutsu Hachisen" New Year Celebration Sake Junmai Ginjyo Nama-Nagara Sake [Hachinohe Shuzo, Aomori]. The joy of opening the sake you bought for New Year's Day. This limited edition sake is released to celebrate the end of the year and the beginning of a new year. It lacks the fruity flavor of the mainstream Hakusen series. It has a slight umami flavor with a strong acidity. It has a strong dryness and a sharp aftertaste with a bit of bitterness. It is a bit bitter and dry. It goes well with strong dishes that would normally be served with beer. This is a limited edition sake released to celebrate the end of the year and the beginning of the new year.

I was wondering why I couldn't go to a store that sold them, but I found a variety of Tsuchida at Daimaru Shinsaibashi. It has a lactobacillus-like and greef-like taste. It's not so sparkling, but slightly effervescent. It tastes sour and sweet. I would have liked a little more sparkle 🤔.

Hey there, Mr. Sakeran! Hankyu Hanshin is more dependent on tasting sales, so Takashimaya and Daimaru have a better selection than Hankyu Hanshin.

Bought this after tasting it at Daimaru. Is it my imagination that the pattern of the label looks like something🤔? It has a density that reminds me of doburoku. The taste is refined and clean for a nigorizake. Good balance of sweet and spicy. A little citrus. There is also a good taste of rice. I think the sweetness increases a few days after opening. I think 1980 yen is cheap for using a centrifugal separator and milling 50% of the rice.

It seems that Mt. Akagi is the only place in Gunma where centrifuges are installed.

I don't know of any nearby stores that carry it (I know of three, but they are hard to get to because of poor access and irregular delivery), so I haven't tried Eiko-Fuji in a long time. It's a quiet wine, but it has a berry-like sweetness and flavor that comes out afterwards. I wish it was easier to buy.

The sake we tasted had been opened for a long time, so the sweetness was emphasized, but the freshly opened sake had a good balance of sweet and spicy with a hint of spiciness. It's also refreshing. I wonder if the green bottle and label is because it's from Midori City? When the temperature is close to room temperature, the sweetness comes out. It's not good to cool it too much. The aroma is a sweet honey-like impression. It also has a nutty taste in the second half. It's my first time to try Akagisan because it's not common to find it in Kansai, but it seems to be a major sake sold in convenience stores and supermarkets in Gunma.

I looked it up and it seems that the toji-san moved from Naniwa Masamune a few years ago. The taste is somewhat similar to Naniwa Masamune's Sakamatsu.

It looks like the liquor you tasted was four or five days old when you opened it, so I'd set it aside for a bit.
