ヤスベェBubble Festival (2)
Merry Christmas ㊗️
It's the second day of the Awamatsuri and it's Christmas time, and today is my theme sake for this year, Tanaka Rokuugo Sparkling... Awamatanaka 😀!
The alcohol content is a bit low at 13 degrees, but it was so robust and delicious that I didn't mind at all 😀.
I could feel the bubbly and fizzy feeling of the bubbles while retaining the taste of the Tanaka Rokuugo that I had been drinking until now 😀.
However, it's a good thing that I emptied it all at once this time without comparing it with other sakes, but if I had left it until tomorrow, it would probably lose its fizzy feeling 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
I didn't know Tanaka Rokugo had spark 😳
The delicious 😋 Spark at 13 degrees is a blink of an eye 🤗. ポンちゃんMerry Xmas 🎄Yasbae, a day late!
I've never seen Awata Tanaka before 😳I had a draft last year and it was very good, so I want to try this one too 〰￣❣️ I have to go to Osaka 😂. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀.
Actually. I saw this sake for the first time at the store too, but there was Tanaka Senkou next to it😅.
I made an excuse to myself to look for bubbles and chose this one😅. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan 😀
I saw this sake in the mountains of Ikeda, so if you are Pon-chan, it might be hard to get there without a car😅.
But if you go there, you will find a lot of sake that Pon-chan would like 😀. ヤスベェToday we opened 2 bottles of Sentori Snowball all at once 😀 This one is a bit quieter than UA 😀.
This one is a little quieter than UA 😀.
Still, the corkage was a bit like a pop-pop-pop, so it ended up being auto-stirred 😅.
I guess it's the same with automatic stirring even if there's a difference between fine or lumpy 😀.
Maybe it's because the regular snowball has a twist on the stopper 😀.
The difference in taste is so small that you have to put the two bottles side by side to tell the difference 😀 They are quintessential siblings 😀.
If I had to choose which one I prefer the UA more, but I think that's just the difference in the schwag I like 😀. Masaaki SapporoGood morning, Yasbay! Snowman, the guy at the liquor store said it doesn't change much, but I guess it is true. I tend to go for the less expensive ones 😁. こぞうMr. Yasubey.
Wow! What a luxurious drinking comparison!
I'd love to try this 😁.
I'll have to consult my wallet and fridge first 🤣. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃
Your label back👜 is expensive ☹️ we haven't had UA yet, but I hope it's the same 😅.
Ori dance💃 makes me feel the season 😌I hope it's not a haiku season word 🤣. ヤスベェHi Masaaki Sapporo 😀
I think a snowman would be perfect for Hokkaido right now 😀.
Even if you don't have a bag, Senkaku Snowman is delicious enough 😀.
What should we do next year❓ ヤスベェHi there, kozo 😃.
After all, the snowman is an essential part of the winter nigori challenge 😀.
In terms of taste, I didn't see much difference on the first day, but the visual of the automatic stirring was so different that I couldn't help but take a video mode shot 😀. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
I knew the UA back was expensive 😅.
To my stupid taste buds, the taste didn't seem much different 😅.
But I'm looking forward to seeing the difference after the second day when the schwarziness is less 😀. ヤスベェIn the last of the Snowman drinking series, we opened both UA Snowman and Sentori Snowman at once and compared them 😀 The UA Snowman was opened carefully, but it almost blew up and caused a catastrophe 😀.
We opened the UA Snowman carefully, but it almost blew up and caused a catastrophe 😀 We were just in time, but the bottle started to stir automatically 😀.
It was just in time, but then the automatic stirring started 😀.
It's a really energetic sake 😅.
Taste is the quintessential UA snowball...no doubt about it 😀.
My wife's comment was that this is not sake... it's an exquisite cocktail 😀.
I can't wait to see how the taste changes tomorrow 😀. ポンちゃんGood evening Yasbaye 😊.
You've done something extravagant 😆 I've never drank at home and I want to experience the goodness of energy 😁 and I see that Kaorin's sake is not sake 🤣 which means it's equally delicious 😉👍. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon 😀
Your wife's hesitation was a step above 😀.
Normally, this is a delicious drink with alcohol in it, but she says this is a superb cocktail 😀
She seems to be saying that it is definitely delicious 😀. ヤスベェToday's snowman is Amabuki 😀.
Amabuki is a Saga sake famous for its fruity taste. I've had many Saga sake like Mae, Shichida and Nabeshima, but this is my first time to try Amabuki 😀.
It was really fruity and tasty sake, just as the rumors say 😀.
Not that it has anything to do with my impression of the sake, but my wife was taking a lot of pictures of Amabuki's snowman, saying that Amabuki's snowman has the cutest face among all the snowmen she collected this time 😅. ポンちゃんHi Yasubeyesan!
Congratulations on your first amabuki 🎉I see that amabuki also has a snowman label 😳I've never seen it before😊and is it still made with flower yeast? Looks delicious ❣️ ヤスベェHi, Pon 😀
It was fresh, fruity and delicious 😀.
I don't know what kind of yeast they use, but I guess it's flower yeast if it's from Amabuki 😀.
The snowman looks good against the blue background 😀. ヤスベェToday's choice is Fuyuhiguma, an entry from Hokkaido.
The main theme of this year's event, new sake and nigori 😀.
When I was looking for a sake that matched it, I saw the jacket and bought it immediately 😅.
It was good that I bought it, but I didn't have an idea of what it tasted like, so I waited for the bottle to open.
I was waiting for the first time to open the bottle when bouken, a friend of mine from Sake-no-wa, commented that he had also bought the jacket and was happy with it 😀 I opened the bottle today with peace of mind.
It was a little different from the new sake light nigori I've had so far, not only sweet, but it had a firm sweetness, but it had a good bone structure 😀.
As expected, Sake-no-wa's information is reliable 😀.
I compared it with Tanaka Rokugo, Yokoyama and Kido's new sake, but I can't rate them because they all have their own character and are delicious 😅. ポンちゃんHi Yasbay, ☁️
You make me want to buy a packet 😁I do that a lot 😂and it would be great if it tasted good👍I like all 3 brands of raw sake, so I'm jealous that this one must be good too: ❣️ ヤスベェGood evening, Pon 😀
I was relieved to see this sake with both the toughness of the brown bear and the cuteness of the jackets while looking at the jackets 😀.
Sometimes, if it looks completely different from the jacket, it's like, "What the hell? I know 😅. 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasube 😃.
I've heard that Hokkaido's sake is a bit heavy-boned to go with oily fish 🐟, and it seems you were right: ✌️ ヤスベェGood evening, 3KAN4ON 😀
Yes... for me, I felt the strength of Higuma hidden in the cuteness of the label 😀.
The new light nigori sake made me realize that it is not just a sweet sake 😀. ヤスベェToday was a very lucky day for me 😀!
I got a call from the store I mentioned before, which I sometimes visit and have won the right to sell Jikin by lottery three times in a row, and I won the right to sell Jikin by lottery for the fourth time in a row 😀.
I had given up on drinking this year's special Junmai nigori sake 😀.
The last sake of the New Sake & Nigori Tournament has been decided 😀.
Today, in connection with Nagasaki, we had a new sake from Yokoyama 😀.
Before I started Sake-no-wa, I only had an image of Saga as the only Sake in Kyushu, but recently I realized that there are a lot of good Sake in Kyushu 😀.
Of course, this is my first time to try Iki's sake 😅.
We compared Senkou Momiji and Hiran light nigori 😀.
Yokoyama is probably classified as a sweet sake, but I had the impression that it was very well balanced and neither sweet nor dry 😀.
My wife, who is gradually becoming more and more fond of dry sake, was pleased that it was not too sweet 😀.
But today's sake comparison also resulted in the result that it was hard to choose one over the other 😅. ＠水橋Good morning, Yasbay 😃.
I got some Yokoyama yesterday too 😀.
It's delicious 😋. 3KAN4ONGood morning, Yasbay😃.
Congratulations on winning 4 times in a row🎊㊗️
At this rate, if you buy the year-end jumbo, you will win it. ‼️
It's Oan & Ichigokubu no Hi today ✌️ ヤスベェ@Mizuhashi . Good morning 😀
Yokoyama-san is a strange sake, sometimes it feels sweet and sometimes it feels dry and sometimes it feels sweet and sometimes it feels dry and sometimes it feels dry and sometimes it feels sweet 😀.
But I'm sure it's delicious 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
What a luck 😳and nigori ‼️ is too awesome to talk about yokohama 🤣. ヤスベェGood morning, 3KAN4ON 😀
Even the wife told me to buy a lottery ticket 😅.
But it seems all my luck is pouring into alcohol, so it seems there is no luck left in the lottery 😓. ヤスベェGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
When I applied for the lottery for Jikin, it said that there were 15 bottles of nigori and 30 bottles of daiginjo, so I was worried, but I chose the nigori 😀.
I would like to try Jikin Daiginjo someday 😀. ポンちゃんCongratulations on your win, Yasube! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm so lucky 😆👍and I'm sure it's YOKOYAMA and not JIGIN 🤣1814 raw, I love it too! This drinking comparison is also nice ❣️ ヤスベェHi Pon-chan 😀
Just a few minutes ago, I got a call from another liquor store that they won the lottery sale of Shinsei's Cosmos 😅.
I wonder what's going on😅
I can't even compare any of these lineups 😀. ポンちゃんCongratulations 🎉.
Please go buy a lottery ticket: ‼️ HiranHappy New Born純米原酒生酒無濾過おりがらみ ヤスベェTonight, new sake light nigori from Hiran 😀!
The first week in Japan, I heard about Hiran kijoshu from a friend of mine in Sakewa and cleared Nagasaki with my first Hiran kijoshu 😀.
For the second week, I wanted to clear Hiran with a regular sake, so I chose this one 😀.
For the comparison, we compared the new Banshu Issen light nigori and Senkyu's UA Momiji and Daimine three-grain light nigori, which had been opened earlier 😀.
With a lineup like this, it's hard to decide which is the best 😅.
Of course they are delicious, but each of them has its own strong taste assertion and they are all great 😀.
Sorry I can only comment that they are all delicious in the end 😅. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasubey 😃.
Hiran is delicious 😋☺️... I mean, Sentori and Banshu Ikken are definitely delicious 😋.
They are all delicious and all good! You are right 🤗 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasube 😃.
Just hearing about the light nigori of the sake from Hiran, it sounds delicious ✌️
You said you were referring to the review of Sake no Wawa, but I'm choosing only good sake from the quintessence😍. ポンちゃんGood evening, Yasube!
You're drinking good stuff again 😁I wanted this sake but I couldn't fit it in my fridge so I had to cry my way through it 😭.
They are all delicious and I can tell 😊. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
I know that the direction of the taste is different in each brewery when you compare them, but the only word that comes out is delicious 😅.
I admire those who can describe the taste well like the senior members of Sake no Wa! ヤスベェHi 3KAN4ON 😀
Maybe if I hadn't started Sake no Wa, I would have been satisfied with just a few sakes from a few breweries at most😅.
But I guess I wouldn't have had to struggle with refrigerated storage like I do now 😅. ヤスベェHi Pon 😀
It's hard to find a sake you want to drink and then give up on it because of where you want to store it 😅.
I've experienced this many times and bought a fridge for sake, but in the end the situation hasn't changed as I want to drink more and more sake 😅. 遥瑛チチGood evening, Yasube!
You have made a good choice with the nigori of "Hiran"👍.
I saw this in the store but passed it up.
I'll look again next time 😁. ヤスベェGood evening, Haruei Chichi 😀
Actually, Hiran was the first sake that taught me how delicious kijo sake can be at Sake-no-wa 😀.
I chose this sake because my goal for this season is new sake nigori 😀.
If you have a chance to meet him, please do 😀. ヤスベェI went walking in Asuka-ji in late autumn on Sunday, and I remembered a maple tree that I still kept in the fridge carefully at home 😀.
It is a UA maple with red leaves, just like the red maple I saw in Nara in late autumn 😀.
The taste is very clear after one sip, but the acidity that lingers on the palate is indeed Senkou 😀 Delicious 😀.
Delicious 😀
Now that the autumn leaves are finally done, we might be able to move on to snowballs soon 😀. 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasube 😃.
How much stock do you have in your fridge that you open a bottle of sake every day and you still have some fall sake left 😱.
So you're finally waiting for the snowman ⛄️ ✌️ ヤスベェHi 3KAN4ON 😀
I have about 30 bottles right now😅
Of course I couldn't fit them in my fridge, not even in the regular fridge, and now even the wife has given up 😅.
Momiji was waiting for me to open the bottle until we go to see the autumn leaves! ポンちゃんHi Yasubey, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
UA maple 🍁 is delicious 💕I wonder if the price could be a little cheaper 💦.
The autumn leaves 🍁 and your wife? You are beautiful too ✨ ヤスベェHi Pon 😀
The picture is of your wife, unfortunately she is not as beautiful as Momiji😅.
I guess good sake is a bit expensive 😅
But my wife doesn't know the price of alcohol, so I'll keep it a secret 😀. ヤスベェToday's new sake light nigori is a bit of a change of course, this low alcohol sake 😀.
The wife took a sip and said the usual line...this is not sake ❗️
She says it's not sake, even though it's low alcohol it's still a great sake 😅.
But it's definitely delicious 😀
Green apple maybe⁉️
Today's comparison is Sono Kangiku and Banshu Issen nigori... my wife who likes sour and carbonated sake likes this one too 😀.
I think I prefer the melon soda type Banshu Issei nigori 😀.
But to be honest, they are all delicious sakes, so it's hard to choose one over the other 😅. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃
You're raising the bar at a good pace 🤗.
It's hard to compare the drinks here 😅 they're light, delicious and really instantaneous 😋. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
After seeing your post, I had a lot of sake I wanted to drink and I collected more than 20 bottles😅.
They can't fit in my sake only fridge and my home fridge and fireplace are even in the closet😅.
I need to drink it soon 😓. 大嶺Oh mine 3grain純米生酒無濾過おりがらみ ヤスベェToday I chose a new sake from my hometown, Yamaguchi Prefecture 😀.
3 grains of Omine 😀.
Yamaguchi Prefecture is full of delicious sake such as Amami from my hometown, Toyo Bijin from Hagi, Otters from Iwakuni, Gohashi, and Ganki, but this is the first time I have chosen Omine 3 grains 😀.
It was almost like buying a packet, but when I tried it... it was delicious 😀.
Today's drink comparison is the Banshu Ikkyo and Kangiku that I opened yesterday 😀.
Of course they are all delicious, but I think I like the Banshu Ikkyo the best 😀.
By the way, the wife also likes new tastes, and she said the Omine 3 grains opened today was the best 😀. ポンちゃんHello, Yasube!
I see you are from Yamaguchi! I'm jealous of your delicious sake ✨You drank a lot of nigori sake 😳I didn't go through this one last year, so I really want to drink it this year 😁You and your wife have different tastes and personalities 😊👍. ヤスベェHi Pon-chan 😀
I was in Kumamoto when I was a student and since I started working I'm in Kansai, so Yamaguchi is the only connection I have left like where my parents live 😅.
My wife likes lemon squash type, and I like melon soda type. ヤスベェAt last, the fifth and final Sono Sangiku of the Cold Chrysanthemum Festival 😀.
Today's Sangiku is a fusakogane 😀.
I think this sake is the best when it comes to the little crumbs that stick to the glass after opening the bottle 😀.
Of course, the sizzling sensation is also the most pleasant, so it was the best sake for me today 😀.
By the way, the wife said that she likes So-no-Mai the best 😀 which was opened yesterday.
What surprised me more was the 99 nigori 😀.
On the first day, the sweetness was hidden by the shuwashu, but on the second day, the shuwashu was gone and I felt it was a little too sweet, but today, the taste is coming together nicely 😅.
Sono Kangiku is a really deep sake 😀.
Now that the comparison of Sono Kangiku has been successfully completed, I'm planning to have a snowball drinking comparison next when the first snow flurries in the Kansai region 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
Kangiku festival! I'm sure you enjoyed it 😊The fact that the taste changes after a few days is one of the interesting things about sake😄.
It's fun to think of different ways to compare different kinds of sake 🤗. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
Sake really is a mystery... normally you would think it would gradually lose its taste after opening the bottle, but it's hard to say otherwise😅.
The next snowman series is going to be my guess, Sentori! ポンちゃんYasbay, thanks for completing your post on the Cold Chrysanthemum Festival😊.
It's interesting to see the number of days passed and the differences in tastes between you and your wife👍🎶I think it's good to compare the drinks at the same time there. You drank well 😊👍👍 ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan 😀
It was very fun to compare the chrysanthemum drinks 😀.
We are not very good at reporting on our taste, so we can only express how good it tastes no matter what we drink 😅. 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
I too enjoyed Shiraginkai the best on the 3rd day 😘.
After the drinking comparison of Kangiku, is this a drinking comparison project of Yukidaruma ⛄️?
I see that you drink only good sake 🤣. ヤスベェGood evening, 3KAN4ON 😀
Thankfully, thanks to the information network of Sake-no-wa, I have managed to get to some interesting sake even though I am in Kansai 😀.
In the meantime, I'm planning on 6 bottles of snowballs 😀. ヤスベェToday is the fourth bottle of So-no-Kangiku So-no-Mai, back to the So-no-Kangiku drinking comparison 😀.
We compared Fukuju's Kuragen Nigori, Denshogiku's yellow and Kangiku's Nigori that we bought yesterday 😀.
I like a strong sense of chugging right after opening the bottle, and the So-no-Mai I opened today was the most delicious 😀 And the 99 Nigori is delicious, but it's not the best.
And the 99 Nigori is delicious but too sweet to go with a meal, so I paired it with an after-dinner dessert and enjoyed it very much 😀.
Pairing sake is important, after all 😀. 3KAN4ONGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
I like sweet 🐎 myself, but it's too much to match it with a meal 😅.
Maybe it's just right for dessert 🍰 ‼️
I know it's a great enemy for belly fat 😨. ヤスベェHi 3KAN4ON 😀
It was still good the first day because of the schwarziness, but once it settles down, the sweetness comes to the fore 😅.
This time I went for nigorigo and white silver sea, but maybe I would have preferred silver sea which is not nigorigo! ポンちゃんHi Yasbaye, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
They all look delicious, but it's all about taste and pairing 😊I'm jealous of the variety of cold chrysanthemums 😆👍. ヤスベェHi, Pon-chan 😀
I was lucky to be able to have the Kangiku Festival, which is hard to get in Kansai 😀.
All of them are definitely delicious and the 99 nigori is also very tasty if you consider it as an aperitif or after-dinner drink 😀. ヤスベェ3rd day of Kangiku drinking comparison 😀 Today is Shiraginoumi from 99 Rihama who came to our house on short notice to join us today.
Today, we have a nigori sake, Shiraiginoumi, which came to our house today as a sudden entry 😀.
This morning I saw on the internet that it was sold out, but I went to the store and asked the store staff about it, and they went to the back and found a bottle for me 😀 It was added to the lineup on short notice, but of course it was delicious 😀.
It was a rush to get it in the lineup, and of course it was delicious 😀.
It had a great sweetness and was very squashy, it was an adult calpis soda 😀.
At first my wife was angry that I bought it again today, but the moment she drank it, she was no longer angry about anything 😀.
The power of chrysanthemum is amazing 😀. こぞうMr. Yasube.
Good evening 😍.
I'm glad you were able to find me to the warehouse😍I'd love to go back to these liquor stores! ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
You have a good liquor store ‼️ and if you get to know each other through repeated exchanges like this, things may get even better 😄.
I'm glad your wife agrees 🤗. 夏雨Good evening Yasbay 😊.
I know what you mean 😭 I just got mad at my wife today for drinking more alcohol again 😂.
I need to stock up on some crown daisies for when she gets mad at me too 😚. ヤスベェGood evening, Koizo 😀
It's a bit difficult to get to, but the selection of goods and service makes it one of the top stores on my list of places I'd love to visit 😀.
I guess it will be my walking course from now on 😀. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
Yes, there's nothing wrong with getting to know the people at the store 😀.
It's a bit hard to get to, but it's worth the trip just to be able to buy Chiba sake, which is hard to find in Kansai 😀. ヤスベェGood evening, summer rain 😀
I still need a sake that will convince your wife to increase your sake inventory and feel secure 😀.
Kangiku is a good sake 😀. ヤスベェOn the second day of the festival, we chose another Denshogiku Yellow 😀 We compared the new Tasake sake and the Denshogiku Orikara that was opened last night 😀.
We compared the new Tasake sake and the Denshogiku Orikarami that was opened last night 😀.
Unlike the ogara-mi, this Kangiku does not have any sizzling sensation at all, so the sweetness and umami can be directly conveyed 😀 I would rather drink the red sake with a sweeter taste.
I prefer the light red color, but the wife says she likes this one better because it conveys sweetness and umami directly to her 😀.
Anyway, she says that Kangiku is not a sake but a delicious drink named Kangiku 😀. 3KAN4ONGood morning, Yasube 😃.
Kangiku is not a liquor but a delicious drink named Kangiku ‼️
I had a chuckle reading this in the hospital waiting room😍.
I'm glad your wife likes more brands ✌️ ヤスベェHi 3KAN4ON 😀
It's true that the more your wife likes, the less she complains about you drinking more, but my wallet is getting lonely😅.
Where are you feeling sick❓😅😅 ヤスベェI've been on a new sake tour recently, but after reading today's post by a friend of mine, I decided to have a Kangiku drinking contest, which I've been meaning to do for a while now 😀.
I think people in Kanto can get Kangiku quite easily, but none of the izakaya I often go to in Osaka had it 😅.
Unfortunately, they didn't have it in stock, but they had a lot of chrysanthemum flowers, and every time I visited there, they were stocking Kangiku 😀.
So I'm going to put together a collection of sakes and compare them in order starting today 😀.
Today we opened a bottle of Denshogiku no Arikara from our stock 😀.
We will compare Bon's Hatsuyuki and Tasake's Shinshu 😀.
It's a happy comparison 😀.
The impression changes completely depending on the food you pair it with 😀.
By the way, my wife screamed that this was not sake the moment she drank the Denshogiku 😀 If it was not sake, what was it?
If it's not sake, what is it ❓😅😅 ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
Oh! I'm looking forward to your future report on the drinking comparison 😊.
I didn't know... but Denshikiku is not a sake 😆. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😃.
Chrysanthemums are finally blooming in our house 😀.
In case you're wondering, Mrs. Jay said it's not a liquor but a delicious drink called kangiku 😅.
Maybe it will be her favorite! ポンちゃんGood evening, Yasube!
I have nothing but envy for you, Chrysanthemum ✨It's pretty hard to get to from my place 😅.
Your wife seems to love it too, so it was worth the trip to buy it 😉👍. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon 😀
It's very hard to get this sake in Kansai 😓.
Yet this store is within walking distance from our house and the monorail, so thank goodness 😀. ひるぺこGood evening, Yasube-san. It's the Kangiku festival I've heard so much about! The Yasubeyes have turned into an izakaya with a great lineup, even having Bon and Tasake lined up 😆🏮✨I'm sure Cheeba-kun is happy to see you enjoying the chrysanthemum so much💕. ヤスベェHi Hirupeko, good evening 😀
My family's stupid taste buds can't tell the difference in taste without comparing the drinks, so it seems the order is just right to drink a little at a time instead of all at once😅.
I've come to love Chiba's sake 😀. ひるぺこYasube, you are into Chiba sake 🥰If kangiku is your type, I also recommend Koshi💕. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
