Timeline
こまっちゃんThe week is over ‼️ and now we're off to bliss 😇
Let's start with the first sip. The standing aroma is not as much as I expected, and there is a slight hint of koji and alcohol.
In the mouth, there is a refreshing gasiness, juicy, light sweetness and umami, and a pleasant bitterness that refreshes the palate at the end.
With pork belly cutlet. I paired it with yuzu ponzu (citrus ponzu citrus juice) and wasagarashi (Japanese mustard) instead of sauce. The sweetness of the fatty pork belly, the freshness of the yuzu flavor and acidity, and the accent of the wasagarashi go well together 😄The sweetness and umami of the sake became stronger and even more delicious because of the desire not to be defeated by this flavor 😋.

I hope you are enjoying your moment of bliss 🤗
The ponzu and Japanese garlic ‼️ sure do go well together 😋.
It seems to bring out the best in Luka 👍. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby, we're enjoying it 😄It's even more delicious before the holidays. ☺️ Master Luca really pulled it off. ‼️ こまっちゃんIt's been a while since Machida 😁 opened without any problems, especially for the opening note ⚠️!
Immediately. The nose has a hint of koji malt.
When you put it in your mouth, there is a freshness in the gasiness and softness. The sweetness is less than I had imagined, but the richness and umami are stronger.
Serve with yakisoba. I tried pairing it with tuna, but personally I don't think it was as good as the other one 😅I think it would be better with sashimi.

Machida Yumachi! It's a great wine that can be enjoyed on its own 🤗It's true that it goes better with meat than with fish 😋. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby I haven't had a drink in a while and it was delicious 😊 It's also ◎ on its own. こまっちゃんWell, it was hot from noon today 🫠I thought about what I could have a quick drink 🤔I chose this one👍.
The color is cloudy. The aroma is sweet like wasanbon and has a hint of koji.
When you put it in your mouth, there is a slight gas feeling, juicy, pear-like fruitiness and umami, and finally a bitter taste. Kuikyuu-kaikyu-kei 😊.
With yam teppan natto with cheese. It's not that it doesn't go well with it, but the sweet and umami taste of this sake has slightly erased the unique flavor of the natto-based yam, and I think it's more assertive than it should be. I also tried it with pork miso soup, which I think is a better match. Still, it may be a little sweet. I looked at last year's comments again, but I think it would be better with fruit, sweet baked goods, or as an aperitif 😊.

I thought you were going home from work for GW?
I thought so😅
Pork miso soup is very delicious when you finish drinking 🎶. こまっちゃんGood morning Eririn-san 😃Good morning 😃I enjoyed Morioka's food, culture and nature during GW...and sake of course😊Pork miso soup really sinks in after drinking 😌I think I will return to my parents' house another time: ✈️ 
こまっちゃんI got some cod sprouts and was thinking 🤔 what to pair them with, so I chose this one👍 after reading the comments 📝 on sake-no-wa.
The color is like a spring haze. The aroma is fresh, with a hint of sourness, like calpis.
It is smooth in the mouth. However, it is less sweet and more refreshing than I expected. It might be good on a hot day like today.
With spring tempura. I think the cod sprouts were the best match. The texture is firmer than I expected and the bitterness brings out the sweet and savory taste of this sake. ❗️Yah 😅Next is the asparagus and last is the udo. I think udo is a bit strong by itself. But it's delicious though 😃.

Tempura of cod sprouts and other vegetables! Looks delicious😍this is going to be hard to decide which sake 🍶 to drink 🤔Sake no wa komei was the perfect reference 👍. こまっちゃんJay & Nobby I always refer to your comments on sakénawa😃The cod sprouts were delicious ☺️ I felt spring with sake ☘️ only a little too hot though (lol) 
こまっちゃんI wondered 🤔 what would be good to pair with the horse sashimi I bought yesterday in Towada, and chose this👍.
Craft sake from Iwate. They also said it is a new sake with grapes added.
So here we go. The color and standing aroma are both rosé wine. After that, there is a hint of rice aroma.
In the mouth, the sweetness of the rosé wine and rice is alternately felt, and finally the moderate bitterness of sake spreads. The color is spring-like and perfect for cherry blossom viewing 😚 and very easy to drink. I think even sake beginners🔰 would like it.
Serve with horse sashimi. It tastes like wine with garlic (🧄) and like sake without any condiments. Interesting 😄.

こまっちゃんAs this is my 700th post, I chose this one👍.
The aroma is not as strong as Muscat, but fresh and gentle, reminiscent of grapes 🍇.
It is more refreshing than I expected and has a soft sweetness and acidity, which gives it a spring-like feeling. There is also a slight gassy sensation.
Serve with croquettes. If you eat it simply without sauce, the flavor of this sake increases and it is delicious 😋.
It will be gone in no time😅.

I know it's still cold in Morioka 🥶 but it looks like spring has come early and it's gorgeous👍. こまっちゃんThank you, Haruei Chichi. ‼️The weather ☀️ was nice today, but the wind was cold 🥶. Mt. Iwate still has a bit of snow on it. However, the Kitakami River is flowing calmly and I can feel the buds of the trees, so I guess it will be spring soon. ☘️ えりりんKomacchan-san konbanhar(o´ω`o)no~~
Congratulations on 700 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉!
I missed buying SAKURA... I was so impatient that I asked the liquor store to secure it for me 😅
I'm almost ready for Hanami 🌸🌸🌸 
こまっちゃんWell, I'm tired 🥱Morioka to Aomori, then Akita to Morioka. I went there for two days and one night 🚙From Hanamaki, I got my first baptism of snowstorm😅.
To relieve the fatigue, come on, let's drink ❗️ and let's get on with it. The standing aroma is muscat-like and fresh. In the mouth, it is juicy and sweet at first, but then you feel the bitterness. If anything, it is sweeter than I had imagined. However, there is no persistent aftertaste.
With gratin. The extract from the seafood and the smooth texture of the ingredients go well with the sweetness brought out by this sake 😄Delicious 😋.

Good job on your long distance travel 🚙😌Driving on snowy roads is very careful 😅.
Gratin and Sake go really well together 👍 こまっちゃんJaynobynoby, good evening. Gratin and sake go together quite well, don't they😄I'm sure the seafood brings out the flavor nicely 🦐🦪🐟. こまっちゃんFirst time to Aomori 🚙‼️, I'm tired 🥱 back to my home in Morioka for a healing drink 😁.
When I opened the lid, I could smell the aroma of malted rice, but the aroma was slightly fruity and mild. When you put it in your mouth, the sourness and bitterness comes and then the elegant sweetness spreads. Easy to drink 😁.
Today I had it with soy milk hot pot 🍲. The smooth taste goes well with the fruity sweetness of this sake 😋.
A blissful moment 😇Takes away the fatigue 😌😌.

Driving long distances is tough if you're not used to it🚗³₃
I heard there is a good liquor store in Aomori, so you can stop by when you have time 😊. こまっちゃんGood morning Eirin 😀 I'm sure I'll be there 🚙 from time to time, so I'll look for you 🤗. こまっちゃんI'll upload Iwate sake later, but first here 😁.
The aroma is a hint of grain in the ginjo aroma.
The sweetness in the mouth reminds me of Japanese sugar, and there is a pleasant bitterness at the end. Easy to drink and delicious 😋.
With the rape blossoms dressed with mustard. The crunchy texture and slightly bitter flavor go well with the sweetness and bitterness of this sake 😊.
Tochigi's sake is my personal favorite 😙.

Is the sweet taste is very strong for Ona 🤔.
And rape blossoms with mustard 😍good tsumami ‼️ definitely goes well with it 😋.
Love Tochigi 🥰😙. こまっちゃんHi Jay & Nobby. The sweetness was more intense than usual 😁Tochigi love ❤️, I guess! こまっちゃんContinuing from yesterday, Iwate sake 😁.
The aroma is not what you would expect, but it has a sweet aroma. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity in the mouth. ‼️ It tastes light and refreshing with a hint of rice ear flavor. This is delicious 😋.
Now, let's try it with roasted chicken 🍗. The savory roasted chicken skin flavor of the chicken enhances the sweetness and deliciousness of the sake with a hint of the Inaho taste of this sake👍.

The aroma is soft sweet and fruity with a hint of koji malt. When you put it in your mouth, it has a nice sweetness with a hint of bitterness. The mouthfeel is fresh. ☺️
I tried it with some pickled plums, but the sweetness of this sake was too much 😓. On the other hand, it might go well with bitter chocolate 🍫 or bread with sweet vinegar flavor 😄.

The immediate❗️ standing aroma is lactic acid bacteria like Yakult, I guess. When you put it in your mouth, the first word is easy to drink❗️shwashy and smooth, then sweet, rich, sour, and tasty, reminiscent of the Yakult pear flavor for adults. Delicious 😋.
Now, with the chicken sasami katsu. The light but tasty sasami and its crispy texture accentuate the acidity reminiscent of lactic acid bacteria in this sake and go well together. ☺️ The subtle sweetness also spreads in the aftertaste and is a good match. 🙆♀️

You can always get red wu at ‼️ local advantage 😊It would definitely go well with sasami katsu or something like that 😋. こまっちゃんGood morning Jay & Nobby, I'm thrilled to be here ☀️ myself, but my wife loves it too ☺️ I'm getting excited (lol). こまっちゃんI found a new fish shop 💡 with dried fresh rolled salmon ‼️ My might-be-tasty sensor kicked in and I immediately bought a fillet.
I knew I wanted a dry local sake to go with it‼️, so I chose this one👍.
Now then, let's open the bottle☺️The color is slightly yellowish. The aroma is fresh with a hint of sweetness and alcohol. The mouthfeel is fresh, crisp, dry, and clean. The umami has a subtle sweetness and bitterness. It is best as a food sake 😀.
Serve with fresh salmon. The synergistic effect of the umami. It is a bit salty, but it brings out the umami and sweetness of this sake. Delicious 🤗I found a good fishmonger 😁.
Next, I paired it with cod. Maybe because it is light, it is a bit lost to the sake flavor. If anything, fish with more flavor and fat would be a better match.
