superbebeSlightly effervescent and refreshing aroma
Gentle and light on the palate
Impressive citrus sweetness and acidity that is pleasant 😋.
Beautifully light and dry, but with a lingering umami flavor that expands
Should go well with sashimi and sushi 🤤. ma-ki-Good evening, superbebe!
Masayo's Gekka is delicious 😋.
Well balanced and yes, yes! Slightly effervescent! It was my favorite drink 🤗. superbebeLimited Active Nigori of Shichibonjari
Tamakae produced in Shiga Prefecture
This is the first time I've had sake made with this rice 😚.
I've never heard of Tamaei outside of Tottori, but it's from Shiga!
Fruity sweet and sour aroma.
Shwashy and creamy with a great rice flavor💕.
Not too sweet and dry when the lees are involved
Delicious fresh bitterness from the raw sake at the end 😄. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, superbebe 😃.
This is the active nigori! I really want to try this one 😋 ‼️ dry and not too sweet 😍.
It would be nice to see a picture of Pudding 😊from Nobby superbebeMild fruity aroma
Is it green apple🍏 or banana🍌?
When you put it in your mouth, there is a slight gassy feeling.
It has a good balance of sweetness, flavor and acidity, and is a bit dark and juicy.
A little peculiar taste afterwards, probably due to the minerality: ☺️✨
We were actually planning to go to Wakanami on this Kyushu trip!
It only took me a little over 20 minutes by car to get to the brewery after landing at Saga Airport,
But due to various things happening, we didn't have time to go there in the end.
Too bad 😭😭.
The photo shows the ruins of Usuki Castle in Usuki City, Oita Prefecture, and the nearby Niouza Historic Trail.
It was a really nice place with samurai residences and temples lined up side by side!
It's full of historical atmosphere 🥹. ポンちゃんsuperbebe, nice to see you posting after all these years 😊.
I see you were in Kyushu! I love castles and old towns, so I'd love to visit here too♪
It's too bad you couldn't go to Wakanami just because it's so delicious 😢. superbebeHi Pon 😊
Oita and Miyazaki prefectures in the east of Kyushu are a little inconvenient to access except by plane because there is no Shinkansen line, but there are many attractive places to visit 😚😚. Nito山田錦55 うすにごり 直汲み 純米吟醸生原酒 新酒1号純米吟醸原酒生酒 superbebeI saw "Futo" 🐰🐰's Yamadanishiki 55 light nigori on the menu and remembered having had the Yamadanishiki 65 nigori version before, so I wanted to compare the two 🤓.
The nigori version was really impressive!
I still clearly remember the time I struggled to open the bottle with an ice pick!
If I wasn't careful, the whole contents would blow out 🥹🥹🥹.
This direct-fed smoky nigori seems to be a bit rare
I don't remember seeing it before.
On the back of the bottle, it says "Limited Distribution".
The aroma is modest and a little banana-like.
Fresh and juicy with a slight sweetness and sourness.
The rice flavor gradually emerges.
There is a slight bitterness and astringency in the aftertaste, and it is delicious to finish 😋.
The photo is of kittens sunning themselves at the entrance to the Yamakawa Port Ferry 🛳️ terminal in Kagoshima Prefecture!
Aren't they cute😍. ジェイ&ノビィsuperbebe, it's been a long time 👋 You're back 👍.
I was healed by the photo of your cat 😽 basking in the sun 😌I'm looking forward to seeing you in Japan again 🤗. のぶのぶNice to meet you, Mr. Two Rabbits.
Are you traveling by boat? I am envious! ごぉにぃごぉHello, bebe... ŃŤto "revival bebe"?
No, I think it's ultra bebe from now on.
This cat is sunbathing in the sun, looking like an old man. superbebeHi Jay & Nobby!
I suddenly wanted to take the JLPT around April 😝.
I've been studying Japanese all this time.
I switched my time at Sake no Wa to study time. superbebeHello Nobu Nobu-san
When I went sightseeing in Kagoshima, I went near Ibusuki, the famous skipjack🐟 production area in the south,
Then we took this ferry across to the Osumi Peninsula on the other side of the island, which is famous for yellowtail, superbebeWe ate yellowtail 🐟 and visited Sakurajima🌋 volcano!
Kagoshima was a lot of fun! superbebeHi there, goanyi goanyi!
No, no, no, it's just normal bebe 😝.
I just took the Japanese N3 exam last Sunday,
I guess I'm kind of addicted to the exam, superbebeI already received the N2 reference book I just ordered!
I'm aiming to take the exam in December 🧐. 
tomoさんMr. Menshuoh and his friends in Kumamoto
Mr. Menshuoh was in Kitakyushu for training, so he made a trip to Kumamoto and we had an off-line meeting last Saturday 🎉.
The participants were Mr. Menshuoh, MAJ, Nocchi, kino., Choroki, Rigel, Chidorisashi, and me. 8 people, it seems to be a national convention 😁.
We drank quite a bit at RIKI... but I hardly took any pictures 😅.
And I have no taste impressions left 🤣.
I will only review this one that I drank at the beginning
Jikin Junmai Ginjo Omachi Hiire
It tastes like Jikin.
It is delicious 🥰.
Overall, it is well-balanced and an excellent sake.
Jikin is definitely delicious👍.
But you know, I'd like a little more of the ruggedness of Omachi 🤣.
I guess I can only love perverted sake now 😂. マナチーGood evening, TOMO🌆There is quite a variety of prefectures from north to south where the participants are from! I'm jealous that you're having so much fun 😂‼️ tomoさんHi Manachie 😃
It's really like a national offline meeting 😁I haven't had an offline meeting with people from Tohoku and North Kanto yet, so I'd like to go there next time 🙇♂

As expected of Honda-san, he brought us some goodies 🙏.
San-do 2022 Yamadanishiki Natural Farming
VINTAGE of SANDO!
After 2 years of aging in the brewery, this is a rare bottle that has been aged for an additional year by honda-san 😳.
The manager told me to be careful when opening the bottle...
The lid flew off when the outer plastic clasp was half removed, but I managed to catch it👍.
It was a very healthy lay.
It was a very healthy San-do with a clean sweetness and a strong effervescence, just like a rice champagne 🍾.
Of course, when 8 of us drank it, it was an instant kill 😁.
Thank you very much, honda: 🙇♂ ジャイヴHi tomo!
I'm so glad to see you here!
I wish I could have participated as a representative of Fukui 🤣. ひなはなママHi TOMO 😃
Off-line meeting in Kumamoto! Sounds like fun 🤩.
That's a very quick birthplace too 🤣.
It's strange but great connection through alcohol 👍I sincerely like it 🥰. ポンちゃんHi TOMO 🐦.
Kumamoto, it's a big offline meeting 🎉We have a great group of members 😆👍I'm looking forward to seeing if everyone can return home safely after this 😊🎶. kapiyotHi tomo😄
I seriously wish I could have been there 😢.
Next time will be the manager's birthday party in October? ヒロGood evening, tomo!
Off to Kumamoto, you are very hot 🔥.
I was also surprised to see that the members are traveling all over the archipelago. I really felt the power of connecting with Sake no Wa 😁I would like to visit the holy place of Kumamoto, RIKI 😆. RigelThank you, Tomo-san and Jiji-san (confirmed as black bellies) 😭
Sorry for missing it earlier, that birthplace was exceptional 😍. kino.Thank you very much for your help in Kumamoto, TOMO-san! Thank you very much 😆.
We had a lot of great drinks including Honda's sake ✨ See you again! tomoさんHi Jive 🌞.
It really is like a national offline meeting 😁 Fukui representative, I'm waiting for you 👋.
I'd like to go to Hokuriku as a Kumamoto representative too though 😊. tomoさんHi HinaHanaMama 😃
It's a great fate that you gather here in Kumamoto like this 😊.
I would like to continue to connect good karma🙆 tomoさんHi Pon 😃
The big offline party was a lot of fun 😁It was hard to keep up with the fast pace at which everyone was drinking 😂.
The last one was a group of drunks as expected 🤣. tomoさんHi kapiyot 😃
I wish you could have come too 🥲.
Drinking at a fast pace as usual 😅.
Maybe next time around 🤔 tomoさんHi Hiro 😃
We never get together in Kumamoto like this 😳.
Thank you all 🙏.
If you want to drink sake in Kumamoto, you can't miss RIKI 😁.
Looking forward to seeing you in Kumamoto 👋 tomoさんRigel, sorry you missed your flight🤣.
I hope to see you in Kanto again 🍶. tomoさんkino. thank you for the other day😊.
You all drank so much, I don't know how much you drank😅.
I hope to see you again 👋 MAJGood evening, TOMO! I'm so glad to see you here 😄.
Thank you for attending Kumamoto! 🙇♂️
I drank hard at a good age 🤣.
I'm sure the Honda Jiji Sake was unbearably tasty...let's drink again! 😆👍 tomoさんMAJ, good evening 🌟.
Thank you for coming the other day 🙇.
I'm sure you'll have too much to drink 😅.
I hope to see you again 😁. ジェイ&ノビィHi TOMO 😃
Awesome! It was an offline meeting of the sakewa star corps from north to south ‼️ only Mr. Noodle Sake King in the north 😅.
I bet the temperature in Kumamoto went up a notch 😁. tomoさんGood evening, Jay & Nobby 🌟!
I am also surprised 😳 that we are going to gather in Kumamoto like this 😁Your energy is amazing! tomoさんAfter the last order, the manager brought these two!
The thirteenth cup: Yukino Kayasha
The fourteenth cup: Hizirizm
But you know, I don't remember what they tasted like after 2 hours of all-you-can-drink 😭
We ordered 1 sake each to share... 14 kinds in 2 hours 😱 each of us drank more than 4 sake!
That's why I don't remember 🤣.
It's 8:30 at this point😳
Of course we went to the after party! tomoさんPetit off-line meeting, 12th drink, opening
Stable dry sake, Kaiun!
I haven't had a chance to drink it recently, but it's been a while since I had it.
I want to drink this with sashimi!
This was supposed to be the last order, but... tomoさんPetit Off-line Meeting 11th Cup - Nanahonsyari Junmai Watafune
I'm not sure what it tasted like, so I'll try to remember.
Not too sweet, but very robust 🤔.
I think he said he wanted it warmed up. tomoさんPetit off-line meeting 10th drink, Murayu
This one must have had a strong flavor that I liked 😅.
I wanted to remember how it tasted since I haven't had much Murayu, but I drank it in the second half of the party, so I don't remember much 🤣. tomoさんPetit off-line meeting, the ninth drink: Toyo Bijin, Jyundo Isshu, Kame-no-o.
I love the Jundo Ittou series 🥰.
Overall, Toyo Bijin's sake is sweet, but Kame-no-o is a bit refreshing~!
My memory of the taste is getting doubtful 🙄. tomoさん8th cup "Iraka
The first drink at the much talked about Iraka 🥰.
Chidori-san's birthday was coming up, so I asked the manager to celebrate and this is what came up!
And this Iraka is a limited edition from Koyama Shoten 😳 (nothing special on the label, but there was a tape on the gap that said "special")!
This was delicious 🥰.
Probably the best 😋 I drank that day.
It was rich in flavor but not sweet or anything like that, I don't have the vocabulary to convey it, but it was delicious 😍. tomoさんPetit off-line meeting seventh drink, Tedorigawa (no photo)
I forgot to take a picture of this one 😅I doubt the order in which we drank them, but I'm sure we ordered them to refresh ourselves after the sweet ones!
A crisp and dry sake, just like Tedorigawa!
I'm not the type to drink it at home, but this is delicious 🥰. tomoさんPetit off-line meeting, the sixth drink: Oze no Yukigoroke (snowdrift), peach-colored nigori (nigori)
My favorite Oze Yuki 🥰.
Ama~y sweet sake 😋.
kapiyot-san didn't like it, but I love this rich sweetness😍. tomoさんPetit off-line meeting 5th drink: Sancho Ni Nozawa
It's a stable San-do 😁.
I think it is often ordered as a toast 🥂, but since it is a Kumamoto sake, you can drink it any time in Kumamoto!
So you can ask for it whenever you like (just my opinion)! tomoさんPetit Kumamoto Off-line Meeting
The fourth drink: Yamamoto test brew Ippozumi
My image of Yamamoto is a light drinker, but this one had a strong umami taste (probably) 😅.
I was so excited at the off-line meeting that I kept drinking at a high pace, so I don't remember the taste well 😂. tomoさんApril 12 Petit Kumamoto Off-line meeting
The third glass: Kaze ga Kowaku Yamahai Junmai Ginjyo Nama Shu
First time to drink this brand 🔰.
Soft sweetness and acidity typical of Yamahai, and then it cuts through quickly.
The aftertaste is dry.
It goes well with a meal 🥰. tomoさんApril 12 Petit Kumamoto Off-line meeting
Second glass: Fudo no Omachi Junmai Ginjo
I asked for it because of the Omachi connection 😁.
This one was sweeter and darker than Jikin, but I think it had a sharp ⚔️ 
tomoさんApril 12 Petit Kumamoto Off-line meeting
About half a year has passed since our last meeting, so I was contacted to have a drink.
Unfortunately, not all of us could make it, but 3 of us (Mr. kapiyot, Mr. Chidorisashi, and myself) had a drink 🍶.
The place was the usual RIKI, and of course we had the all-you-can-drink sake course 😁.
First glass: Jikin's Omachi!
All you can drink, but I could drink only one glass of Jikin👍.
It is a stable taste 🥰.
It tastes more like Jikin than Omachi 😁. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, TOMO 😃.
Petit off-line meeting! I like ‼️ Tochigi citizens' group should plan it soon too😅.
And you did a great job of organizing the Kumamoto to Tokyo Off-line meeting 🤗. tomoさんGood morning, Jay and Nobby 😃.
We are just a bunch of drinkers 😁I was in charge of photography in Kumamoto, so I somehow remembered the taste, but in Tokyo, I have nothing to write about sake at all 🤣. ポンちゃんHi TOMO 🐦.
I just went back 😁Hey, when did you go from Tokyo to Kumamoto? I see you were off to Kumamoto from Tokyo not even a week apart 😳 both of you had a lot to drink 🤣 it was a fun week 🤣. tomoさんGood evening, Pon-chan😊.
The Kumamoto Off-line meeting was held in a hurry? We had a sake festival for a week last week 🤣.
But I can't remember what it tastes like when I drink a lot of sake outside 😅. 
tomoさんHere is the last sake, Bodai Sen
Sake made with Bodai yeast from Bodaiyama Shorekiji Temple in Nara.
This sake is made by Kuramoto Sake Brewery!
It has the sweetness and acidity typical of Bodai Hashiroshi, with a faintly distinctive aroma 😊.
This one is delicious too 🥰.
I haven't had Kuramoto sake yet, so I'll have to look for it!
This concludes my son's graduation & job hunting celebration!
I hope he could feel the depth of sake 😁. ジェイ&ノビィHey, tomo 😃.
You introduced me to a pretty profound world 😆 and a fun time with your son! How did you feel about the sake world 😁. ポンちゃんCongratulations to TOMO on your son's graduation & job 🎉.
I thought your son power👍 when he came out No.6... but the second half was a unique drinking time🤣I hope he inherited that DNA😁. tomoさんJay & Nobby, thanks again 😊This is a very broad lineup and my son was amazed at the depth of sake 😁I let him drink a variety of sake at home, but he is biased 🤣. tomoさんThank you, Ponchan 🙇♂
I was lucky to find No.6 🥰If you go to RIKI, it would be a shame if you don't experience the deep world 😁. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
