Timeline
ヤスベェI'm a small person and I can't open a bottle of hard-to-find sake unless I have a reason to do so😅.
So I end up drinking them all together like this because I can open them if I have a reason 😅.
Tobiroki is also very hard to find, but it's a clear and beautiful sake like Junmai Daiginjo 😀.
It is the most similar to Niimasa among the sake we compared, but I think it tastes more transparent 😇.
I guess it's a matter of taste here and opinions will differ... 🤣
What surprised me more than that was the Imi 🤣.
At first it was a clear golden yellow, but over time it turned a bit dull 😅.
I thought it might have been caused by poor storage, but the taste became deeper and tastier 🤣.
The funny thing about sake is that you can't tell the change 😇 ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
Good drinks are good to drink all together 🤗It's great 😋 to see changes that you wouldn't know if you drank one bottle at a time👍. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
If you don't keep going all at once, you'll just be looking at the sake through the glass in the sake cellar😅.
I like it when you drink 4 bottles in a shift, even I can tell the difference 🤣. ヤスベェWalking tour of temples, shrines and sake breweries21❓😅😅
As I wrote yesterday, tomorrow is the anniversary of my mother's death, so every year on the National Foundation Day holiday, I go on a walking tour to visit temples in the 33 sacred sites in the western part of Japan 😀.
I don't have enough merit to go to the temples 🤣.
This year I went to Otsu, Shiga and asked for offerings at two temples, Ishiyama Temple and Mitsui Temple 😀.
Since I was in Otsu, I decided to visit the sake brewery, Hirai Sake Brewery, where Asakayousei is brewed 😀.
I thought they were open because the information said they were closed irregularly, but unfortunately they were closed today 🥲.
I decided to open a bottle of Shinmasa today on the Shin-Kaisoku train on my way home to open a bottle of delicious sake when I was disappointed 😇.
When I got home and read Sake-no-wa, I found that Aladdin-san drank the exact same sake😇.
I'll leave all the comments to Aladdin, but they are all delicious even though they are completely different from both the Izumi and Jikin sakes we compared 😇.
The deep, sweet and umami flavor of the Imi is outstanding, the sweet, umami, bitter and spicy of the Jikin is well balanced, and the fresh, delicious rice flavor of the Shinsei Viridian can be enjoyed...they are all delicious😇!
It was a nice and tasty home drinking comparison😇 アラジンGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
Sorry to hear about the Hirai sake brewery, but I'm sure your mother is pleased 😊.
Viridian, I envy you for your ongoing drinking as our bottles are already empty 😄.
It's an awesome drinking experience, I can't believe you're drinking at home: ☺️ shinsaku3Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
I am sure your mother will be pleased 😊.
Jikkomai with its balance of sweet, tasty, bitter and spicy, and Shinsei with its sense of rice.
That's exactly my impression 😃.
I'd like to try it since I've never had it before 😦.
Looks delicious 😋. ポンちゃんYasube, thank you for making the long trip in the cold 😊.
Sorry to hear about Hirai Shoten, but I'm sure your mother must be pleased ✨This delicious sake will be a good memorial service 🙏. ヤスベェGood evening, Aladdin 😀
I'm too chicken to drink hard-to-find sake unless I have a reason for doing so 🤣.
On the other hand, if I have a reason, I'll open the bottle continuously 😅.
I'd like to drink and compare the sake for the next 4 days 😇 ヤスベェsinsaku 3, good evening 😀
I'm thankful that I can get Imi-san at least once a year at a liquor store near me 😀.
Is there a liquor store where I can get Niimasa-san regularly, so I can open a bottle normally... 🤣. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan 😀
Hirai Sake Brewery said their store was closed irregularly, so I just assumed they were open on days when customers are more likely to gather!
Asakayou-san is in a liquor store I frequent so I don't have to go there 😅. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 31
Snow Dharma Drinking Comparison 2️⃣
Today, I'm going to try Izumihashi Junmai Activated Nigori.
It took me quite a while to open the bottle even though it was stored at a low temperature, but I was able to get the supernatant and compare the two 😀.
Compared to yesterday's new sake Kouyuki Junmai Ginjo, which had a beautiful taste even among nigori, this one has a nice, bubbly taste with a firm rice flavor 😀.
Even though they are from the same company, the basic taste is similar, but different nuances are well expressed in this sake😇.
I love the sparkling taste of the active nigori 😇 ポンちゃんGood morning, Yasube-san 🐥.
I see that you also got the number of ⛄️ that can be used for the festival 😆 That's great👍Izumibashi, not only the color of the label, but also the look of ⛄️ 😳It's cute 🤔I saw ❣️ and thought this one is more to my liking 🤔. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃.
Including the Tochigi sake that comes out ahead 🤗Snowman⛄️ drinking comparison is great👍.
Wakata's theory that active nigori is absolutely delicious is alive and well 😋. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon 😀
This year, I picked up only delicious snow dalmations to make Nigorinpikku, too😇.
Even in my imagination, I think Pon-chan prefers this one 😇. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
I'm also doing this nigorinpic and all the sake tastes are so different from each other that I never get tired of drinking them in a row😇.
But I still think my favorite nigori sake is active nigori 😀. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 30
Snowdrift drinking contest 1️⃣
Today, I saw powder snow flurries for the first time this season😇.
Sorry to those who are having a hard time with the heavy snowfall, but it doesn't snow around me in Osaka and finally today I saw powder snow falling around me for the first time 🤣.
I have been planning to hold a Snow Dharma Festival since the day I saw the snow falling for the first time, but finally today I am going to hold a Snow Dharma Drinking Contest😇.
This year's Snow Dharma drinking comparison will be a simple 5 bottle event with 2 types of Izumihashi and 3 types of Sengoku Snow Dharma 😀 😀 The first one is a new sake, Izumihashi.
We will start with Izumihashi's newest sake, Shiboritate Powder Snow Nigori Sake.
It's a stable taste 😇.
Last year, we had a similar group of people compare the three types of Yukidharma sake, and it was just as good as last year's. 😀 The remaining 4 bottles of Yukidharma were all new to us.
I'm looking forward to the remaining 4 bottles of Snow Dharma 😇 haniwa56My first snowman. I've been meaning to buy one every year, but couldn't, so I finally did.
The aroma is indescribable. The silky taste of nigori and the petitiveness of nama-shu. The balance is exquisite. Just as I had hoped. The alcohol content is low, so it's easy to drink. Delicious! My wife and I finished the bottle together. I hope we can buy it again next year. haniwa56Purchased for warming sake. I drank it cold right after opening the bottle, but it had little aroma and drank like water. I heard it was recommended to be heated, so I immediately heated it up. It was delicious with a nice aroma and a sharp taste. It is easy to drink and delicious. I drank it cold (at room temperature) 3 or 4 days later, but the aroma was sweet and full. It is also delicious at room temperature. haniwa56My daughter came over on New Year's Day with her grandson and opened the bottle. It's been a while since I've had a Silver 7 draft. It is easy to drink and tastes good. Whatever you drink in Yokoyama, it's delicious. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 7️⃣
Today it's Mr. Snow Cloud from Izumo Fuji 😀.
@Mizuhashi-san drank it yesterday, and I've been looking forward to opening the bottle since yesterday too 😀.
In fact, Jay & Nobby, whom I adore at Sake-no-wa, had previously praised it highly, so I looked around for it even though I had never had it yet 🤣.
I couldn't get it in the first shipment, but I managed to get it in the second shipment😇.
I see 😀
I now understand why everyone is raving about it 😀.
The acidity was delicious and fizzy, and the sweetness was refreshing 😀.
It was exquisite and wonderfully balanced 😇
But all the sake selections for the Nigorinpik so far have been different and all delicious 🤣.
Nigorinpic has just started and I am looking forward to more and more 😇 ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃!
Oh! You've made it to the snowcloud. ‼️ Among the many delicious nigoris, this is the one that really caught our taste buds 😋, but there are so many that we can't choose the one we like the best 🤗. ＠水橋Good evening, Yasbay 🌇.
I also remember Jay & Nobby drinking it 😃.
Nigori sake is really delicious and you can enjoy different tastes depending on how you mix it 😊. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
It was definitely a delicious bottle, but I can't pick which one because they all tasted so good 🤣.
Also, the Nigorinpic has just started, so I'm looking forward to the excitement to come😇. ヤスベェGood evening, @Mizuhashi 😀.
That's right 😀.
I enjoy the temperature change of clear sake, but nigori type is more enjoyable because you can even enjoy the difference in the way of mixing 😇. ヤスベェWinter Nigori Linpic 2️⃣
In this Nigorinpic, I tried to collect as many different types of nigori sake as possible, such as nigori, nigori, ogorigori, sparkling ogorigami, etc., and also prepared a wide variety of tastes, such as sweet, umami-guchi, and refreshing based on your comments 😀 I thought about the order in which to drink the sake among them.
I thought about the order in which to drink the selected sakes, but this time I decided to drink the ones I haven't tasted yet first, after the last Winter Nigorinpic to a certain extent 😀.
For the second entry in the Winter Nigorinpik, I chose Yukiten by Choshu Shuzo, a brewery in my hometown of Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture😇.
I've had a few sips of Amami's light nigori Momoten, but this is my first time drinking this nigori Yukiten 😀 I like Momoten, but this time I had a chance to try this one.
I like Momoten, but the Yukiten I had this time was even better than Momoten😇.
The aroma was citrus fruit, but my impression was pear 🍐.
The second day, Mr. Sanomorosugi is still a delicious ripe banana, but this one is a delicious pear 😀.
It's a matter of taste, but in my family we might prefer the pear... of course the ripe banana is outstandingly delicious😇
The top clearings were removed and tasted the same....but the orizzled ones tasted more fizzy 😇 ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃
It's true that it's hard to decide the order of drinks when there are so many 😅we also prefer the pear type 🤗. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
We have taken your advice from last year's event and have tried to select a wide range of sakes, including various types and dry nigori, so as not to get bored with overlapping tastes and atmospheres 😇. ヤスベェThe season of Denshogiku has come safely again this year😇.
Last year we drank 4 different types of Denshogiku, but this year, due to the convenience of the cellar and refrigerator, we ended up with this one type 😀.
The sweet fruitiness spread in my mouth and was delicious 😀.
Kaorin was also satisfied to be able to enjoy Denshogiku again this year 😀. ポンちゃんGood morning, Yasubeyesan 🐥.
I envy you all taking cold chrysanthemum, but electric chrysanthemum is especially popular! I'll try my best next year 🤔.
I like the line of bottles 😊 I can feel the fall here 🍁. ヤスベェFinally, the 12 straight shifts of the devil's workday is over 🤣.
I knew it was pretty tough for a 66 year old man😅!
As a reward to myself for surviving the consecutive workdays, I'm opening a bottle of Niimasa today😇!
I chose Viridian from Niimasa's Colors 😇.
This sake doesn't need any comment at all 😅.
Of course it's delicious 😀.
It was a delicious sake with a good balance of sweetness and umami, and even a sense of clarity throughout😇.
Tomorrow I finally have a day off, but the day after tomorrow I have to work hard again😅. 勉強中Good evening Yasbay, good evening 🌆Thank you for your hard work 😊I'm so proud of you in the still hot weather. It's important to reward yourself, isn't it? ☺️ I can do my best when I have a very good drink at home. Hope you have a good rest day tomorrow😄 アラジンGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
Thank you for your work!
I felt the epicness of 12 consecutive workdays when I opened the bottle of Tenju 😌.
Please let the alcohol sink into your mind and body and relax: ☺️ ma-ki-Good evening, Yasbay.
Thank you so much for working 12 consecutive days 💧.
Viridian must have sunk into your tired body✨.
Make sure you let the drinks heal you 😊. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
Work is concentrated on those who can do it 🥲It used to be 🤔I can't imagine working 12 straight days now 😅Please enjoy your evening with delicious drinks that you don't have to talk about 😌. つぶちゃんHi Yasbay😄.
Thank you for working 12 consecutive hours〰︎💦
I hope your reward is a Viridian 🍾, it's so good for your tired body. ☺️ Please take a good rest... but you only have one day off. ⁉️ I'll have to open another reward level drink for you. ☝️🤣 ヤスベェHi, I'm studying 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
Today was the first time in a long time that I was able to enjoy a visit to a liquor store and a visit to a computer shop😇.
Every day, looking through the glass at the sake cellar is my favorite time 😇 ヤスベェHi Aladdin 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
I can't recover from the quintessential Viridian alone, so I'm opening another bottle of good liquor early today and drinking it slowly😇.
I'll do my best again tomorrow 😀. ヤスベェHi, ma-ki- 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
Viridian is sinking in, but I also opened another bottle of good one today 😀.
My greatest comfort is having a good sake with Kaorin 😇. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
In the past, yes, but now the ochan can only negotiate with the vendors 🤣.
After Mr. Viridian yesterday, today is another delicious drink that I don't have to tell you about😇. ヤスベェHi, Tsubu 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
Tsubu told me to open some delicious refreshments for you today 😀. バウムToday, we had "Romain".
I had a good impression of Romain when I drank it before, and I found the last one at a liquor store,
I bought it immediately 😄
It is also delicious 😋.
It's refreshing and clean. It has no peculiarities and I want to keep drinking it by itself 🍶.
I was tempted to buy it 👀 when I saw that Juromanto was already on the store shelves, but I'm afraid I'll exceed the capacity of my fridge.
I gave up on it because it would exceed the capacity of my fridge...
I gave up, but with this performance, I'm going back to the liquor store 😂.
Preference:★★★★★ nabeHi there, I'm a newbie to the site and I'm looking forward to reading more about it.
Thank you for the second bottle of lo ten thousand! バウムGood morning, nabe-san 😊Romang is still delicious 🥰It's a pity that we can't drink many different kinds at our local liquor store 🥲. バウムFirst Issue & Wife's Recommendation Series: "Chiebijin
My wife recommended this stock because it is the same as our daughter's name.
I never thought my first time would be from the back 😱...
And it's related to cage... 😱.
I'm not so good at this 😅.
I should have looked carefully and bought it.
I regret it a little 😂.
I guess I'll have to revisit it again on the front: ⁉️😅
Preference: ★★★☆☆☆☆ バウムToday's second "Ni-Rabbit
First "Ni-Rabbit"!
After the Akabuto, the bottle was opened with the hurdle raised a little 😅.
The aroma is fruity, but the mouthfeel is clean and dry.
The aroma is fruity, but the mouthfeel is clean and dry.
This is delicious 😋!
My wife is also a fan of Akabu, but she's drinking more 😅.
Might be great as a food sake ⁉️😊
It's a ginjo so perfect for tonight's sweet and sour pork!
