バウムToday's first issue of the series
The first in a series of first bottles 🍶 "Yamano Kotobuki".
Among the many brands available, I chose this one just because of the label 😅Sake from Kyushu is also quite good, so I opened the bottle with high expectations.
The aroma is not that strong, it's more of a refreshing type 😊.
And then I took a sip. It's clean and refreshing, with a slight spiciness spreading slowly in the aftertaste.
The spiciness is just right and disappears easily.
It's the kind of sake that goes down smoothly and is easy to drink too much 😅.
I have a lot of intuition when it comes to sake choice these days, but I never get a bad one 😁.
Maybe I'm using too much luck here😅.
Well, it's a good thing I'm finding good sake 😊. ジェイ&ノビィHi Baum 😃
It would be great to win the label choice 🤗I think that as you drink your first brand, you will naturally win the national title! バウムGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😊A hit 🎯 with your label choice doubles your happiness 😍.
Hope you can conquer the whole country before you find a good sake 😊. バウムNormal operation from today 😃.
First issue of the series has resumed and this time it's "Naraman" 🍶.
Without any preconceptions, I opened the bottle and started with the aroma...mild aroma. Take a sip.
The impression is clean and refreshing, and the spiciness follows from the sweetness.
The aftertaste disappears quickly and you are left waiting for the next sip. The impression of "beautiful" is perfect.
I thought the sake brewery was in Nara prefecture because of the brand name "Naraman"...but I didn't realize it was in Fukushima 😅.
Oh, it's so good 😋. ジェイ&ノビィHi Baum 😃
Congratulations on your first Fukushima sake 😆Naraman ㊗️ 🎉I know you think it's Nara 😅.
But Fukushima has a lot of good sake too 😋. バウムHi Jay & Nobby 😊I have a lot of first time sake, but Fukushima and Tochigi have a lot of really good sake 🥰, gives me the courage to go to more uncharted areas 😋. 

バウムToday is also the first issue of the series 🍶 "Abukuma
Abukuma
We found it while shopping at a liquor store 💡.
It was a brand I wasn't expecting at all, but since it's a Junmai Ginjo, I decided to give it a try and brought it along 😅.
I opened the bottle and started with the aroma...
Fruity ⤴️ and a sip 🍶.
I wonder if this is called "beautiful" ⁉️. It has a clear mouthfeel and flows smoothly down the throat.
It's a little spicy as the temperature rises, but it's totally clear and unctuous 😋.
It is really delicious ⤴️ I didn't know there was such a delicious sake even if it is a brand that is completely new to me... 😱.
It was a brand that made me rediscover the depth of sake more and more 😊. ma-ki-Good evening, Mr. Baum.
You've really pioneered a new series with your first brand series: ⤴️
I love the moment when you suddenly find a sake that you like even if it's not a major player 🎵.
Sake really is very deep 😊. バウムma-ki-San, good evening 😊I can't remember why I brought you here myself, so I thought there was some connection... 😅this is also fate 🥰. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Baum 😃.
Trust your instincts in this series😄Good to know! I have a theory that the sake that catches my eye at the liquor store is usually good 🤗.
The simple back label also gives a sense of confidence👍. バウムHi Jay & Nobby 😊I have the information in mind here, and even when I head to the liquor store, I end up changing it on a hunch 😅, but I am amazed at how strong the recent hiccups have been for me 😁.

Snow Dharma Drinking Comparison 4️⃣
The second bottle of Sentori Snow Dharma is this UA Snake🐍 😀.
It will be the first zodiac sake of the year 😀.
The amount of ori was the highest for the regular Snow Dharma and the lowest for this UA Snake, but it was more fiercely carbonated than yesterday's Snow Dharma, and as soon as we opened the bottle, it started to auto-stir and we couldn't get any supernatant 😀.
The taste is a bit lighter and fruitier than the Snow Dharma, but the acidity and spiciness from the carbonation mixes nicely and is delicious 🐍❤️
Taste-wise, Kaolin and I both preferred the UA Snake from here 🐍. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay😃.
I like the idea of a zodiac bottle to coincide with the first day of spring 🤗We've almost never had UA 😅but the UA here looks delicious 😋. ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀
Actually, our fridge and sake cellar are in a mess and this year we gave up on the Risshun morning squeeze 😅.
So I've been thinking about the order of the sake and I'm in the mood for Risshun 🤣.
I wonder when the fridge will be reduced 😅. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 32
Snow Dharma Drinking Comparison 3️⃣
This is just my own idea, but I chose the Five Greatest Nigori Sake based on the nigori sakes I drank during last year's Nigorinpic and this year's event 😀.
For me, the five greatest nigori are Jikin, Hirotogawa, Ona, Hanazumi and... and this Snow Dharma 🤣.
The other 4 bottles I drank this season confirmed the deliciousness of the other 4 bottles, but I finally got to my first Yukidharma this season 😀.
I heard that Sentori changed their production this year, so I was really looking forward to it, but it is as delicious as ever 😇.
Thanks to the fact that it was well chilled, it didn't blow out and I was able to get the supernatant without any problems 😀.
The supernatant and nigori that had been brought to room temperature and the nigori that had been chilled 😀 Each has different nuances.
Each one has its own nuances, but they were all delicious 🤣.
However, the chilled one was the most tasty as it gave the most nuance of the active nigori with a sense of effervescence 😇. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasube 😃.
I'm glad to see two bottles of Tochigi sake in the Godai nigori 🤗The newborn snowman ⛄️ is definitely good too 😋. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
It's true😇
Except for Mie Prefecture's Jikin, Tochigi Prefecture's ❤️ and Fukushima Prefecture's 2 bottles each became my 5 biggest nigori 😇.
I'm looking forward to drinking 2 more bottles of Snow Dharma from now on 😀. バウムToday is my first brand series 🍶 "Banjo Kotobuki" 🍶 which I brought to the liquor store after much deliberation in front of the fridge 🍶.
I was attracted by the label and the cosmetics😅.
The bottle was opened immediately. The aroma is a little sour. A sip and it's surprisingly refreshing and not too sour 😅I guess my stupid nose is exploding ⁉️
The aftertaste is also refreshing 😋That's right 🎯⁉️ and the second sip... I raise the temperature range to feel a little taste in my mouth... First the aroma is like a disinfectant 😱The taste is also a little peculiar 😅.
I take a chaser to clear my mouth and take another sip 🍶I can feel the beautiful taste when I drink it normally 😅It's a little strange sake 🍶. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpik 29
This is the first challenge nigori sake brewed by Matsuyama Shuzo since its revival in 2023 in Fushimi, Kyoto.
I actually had a chance to talk to the head brewer of this brewery, who moved from a major brewery to Matsuyama Shuzo last summer at an event in Namba for the revival of the brewery, and I have been paying attention to it since then.
The fruity sweetness and deliciousness filled my mouth in a natural way with no clinginess at all 😇.
Delicious 😀
It was a really nice Kyoto nigori sake brewed with Kyoto celebratory rice and a yeast called Kyoto no Koto 😇.
And the label was very impressive, beautifully depicting a ten stone boat floating on the moat of Fushimi in the snow 😀. ポンちゃんHi Yasbaye 🐦🐦.
Winter nigori also looks delicious 👍👍00You spoke with the toji at the event ✨I think it will taste even better because you can directly feel the creator's thoughts 😊. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay😃.
The reflection of the bottle on the label also looks like snow in the light 🥹It's kind of live 😌.
Sake that you have a lot of feelings for is going to be a little bit better 😋. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan!
I guess when I hear about the creator's thoughts, it makes me think even more about the sake 🤣.
But really, this sake was so delicious that I could picture Kyoto and winter flowing through my mind's eye! ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
After looking back at what you said, it really does look like snowflakes, even the lights reflected on the bottle 🤣.
It was a really delicious sake that lived up to the beautiful label, I hope you'll try it😇. ちばさんI was lucky enough to buy a bottle of Tasyu light nigorigo, which I was too curious about, so I immediately opened the bottle.
I can't stop grinning just from the aroma.
And of course, it tastes the best. ちばさんI saw a Sentori that I was a little curious about, so I got it.
It's a tasty one with a depth that combines acidity and mellowness in various ways.
I put the UA Snake sticker on the back of my phone. KoeigikuHello KOUEIGIKU うすにごり 雄町純米原酒生酒無濾過にごり酒 ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpik 24
Continuing from yesterday, we will open a bottle of Koei-Kiku's Hello Oumachi Usu-Nigori Sansan for comparison 😀.
After yesterday's scare, we carefully opened the bottle today and found it to be very mature compared to Snoqualmie's 😇.
Although the bottle was mature when opened, I felt a stronger schwash in my mouth when I put it in my mouth 😀.
The taste was more sweet than Snoclet's 😇.
It is a bit higher at 14 degrees compared to Snoclet's 13 degrees, but it is rather amazing that you don't feel the alcohol 😀.
Kaorin says that I prefer Omachi to Yamadanishiki because this is Omachi compared to Sunokure's Yamadanishiki, but I wonder if that's true ❓🤣. ポンちゃんHi Yasubeyesan 🐦.
Haro's Omachi is delicious. ❣️ I only drink clear sake at home, so I would like to drink nigori slowly too😊This year's one seems to have sweetness even when it is just opened! ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan 😀
I think the nigori from Haro Oumachi is definitely your favorite 😇
I hope you will try not only the clear sake but also the nigori 😀. ヤスベェNigorinpic 23
Kaorin asked me to choose a sake for today because she was going to grill some meat that she received as a tax return gift from Saga Prefecture, so I opened this bottle of Snow Crescent first because I had two bottles of Koei-Kiku's nigori type sake from Saga 😀.
When I opened the bottle, it almost blew out with a loud pop, but I managed to hold the stopper down to avoid a disaster 🤣.
The alcohol content is low at 13%, but with the robust flavor of Yamadanishiki, it doesn't feel too low in alcohol 😇.
Koeikiku is still delicious 😇
However, Tengu Mai's Yamahai Nigori went very well with today's Yakiniku 😀.
I think a robust nigori type of dobrokku goes better with yakiniku 🤣.
Tomorrow, I'm looking forward to the next Kouei Kiku with today's Kouei Kiku because it will be a fish-based food 😀. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
Saga pairing! Nice one 🤗.
And the opening of Snoclet 🚀 was really scary😨I'm glad it opened well 😮💨 I'm surprised that a robust Dobrok goes well with Yakiniku 😅Thanks for the good information! ヤスベェGood evening Chika 😀
I'm up to 23... but I'm not halfway there yet 🤣. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
I was a bit caught off guard by the flow from Mr. Purple Space's sparkling, but Snoclet's blasting power was amazing 🤣.
It's a wonderful sake with a robust sweet and tasty flavor that you wouldn't expect from a low-alcohol 😀. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpik 19
This is a sake prepared for the hanpukai by my regular liquor store😇
I was a little disappointed because I thought I was covered since this one came in the hanpukai sake after I originally bought the Winter Session... but I was betrayed in a good way 🤣.
The amount of cage sedimentation is almost the same visually, and the automatic stirring ollidance behaved the same after a few seconds of opening the bottle even though it was kept at freezing temperatures😅.
The aroma was also almost identical 😀.
The difference is the taste in your mouth 😀.
As I mentioned before, Winter Session also tasted delicious, but the basic taste direction was the same but clearer and more transparent😇.
The specs of this sake are totally secret, so all I know is that both have the same alcohol content of 14 😅.
The Winter Session was written as 55% polished rice, so my guess is that this sake is more highly polished ❓😇😇 ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃.
The oridance 💃 is synchronized and the scent is the same... and with this look we won't be able to tell the difference 😅If you write down the specs, we'll be pulled in by them 😆. さけランGood evening, Yasube-san. I know it's a little late, but I look forward to working with you again this year.
But it's a great comparison!
The label of "Yamazatobuki" is unique. Yamabusyu is unique with its usual label and this cute label 😇. コタローGood evening, Yasube!
I saw this on social media and was curious ✨I couldn't get to Kadoya so I had to keep my fingers crossed🤣The specs are a secret, aren't they? I didn't realize even the cute label was bespoke ☺️
I'll be drinking the regular version with my imagination 😝. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
In my case, I managed to tell the difference because I compared the drinks side by side, but if I drank them separately, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference🤣.
This is why I can't stop comparing drinks🤣. ヤスベェSake-run, I know it's a bit late to say hello to you too, but please do me a favor this year 🙇.
I'm glad to know that with hanpukai, you can get unexpected sakes 😇.
But sometimes there is a double possibility, and when that happens, I'm shocked😅. ヤスベェGood evening, Kotaro 😀
I see you knew about this on social networking sites 😀
I didn't think that the secret meaning was specs undisclosed 🤣.
Sometimes with a hanpukai, you get hit with interesting projects😇. ポンちゃんHi Yasbaye 🐦.
It's a true secret 😳I think it's quintessential that you can feel the difference & make a prediction 😊👍✨I don't know, I don't know, I'm going to lose it while I'm drinking it 😂. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon 😀
I may be totally off the mark as it's my own imagination 🤣.
But drinking without knowing the specs is pretty interesting and fun😇 山の壽グッドタイムズ ウィンターズセッションにごり酒 ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 18
After a short break from the Shinshu Tsurukame drinking contest, I would like to return to the Nigorinpik again 😇.
From today, we will start the comparison of Yamazan no Kotobuki 😀.
After purchasing this Winter Session, a very similar sake from Yamanobusyu came in from the hanpukai 🤣.
I was a bit shocked to see the same sake, but upon closer inspection it was a bit different 😅.
This is where my interest grew 😇
Let's compare the difference between the two 🙆
First, I'll have this Winter Session that is available on the market😇.
My impression after drinking it is a delicious adult Calpis soda 😀.
The fizzy feeling of carbonation mixed with the sweetness of sourness that reminds us of lactic acidity, it was a very well made drink😇.
Tomorrow I would like to enjoy a comparison with a similar looking sake called Himitsu 😀. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasbay 😃
I'm looking forward to the results of the comparison of the two bottles of this series by Yamazan no Kotobuki! I've been curious about it since the summer but haven't had any yet 🥲I'm looking forward to seeing the results of the comparison between the two bottles 😊.
But the design of the label is very important 🤗. ワカ太Hi Yasbay, 😃We opened this one the other day too: ‼️ It was really good and when I realized it was gone 😅.
Looking forward to your review of the other one 😊. ポンちゃんHi Yasbay 🐦.
The label is cute 😻and 2 bottles in different! Good choice, Kadoya 😊👍. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
As you can see, the label is really cute🙆
It tasted like a really adult calpis soda too 😀.
The drink was perfect for the label and it was delicious😇 ヤスベェGood evening, Wakata!
It's really delicious and I can see why it disappeared so quickly 😀.
The other bottle is a liquor store original and the specs seem to be undisclosed, which is intriguing 🤣. ヤスベェGood evening, Pon-chan 😀
This Winter Session is normally distributed, but the secret is that it was made by Kadoya in collaboration with the brewery and the specs were not disclosed at all🤣. ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 15
I had made a full-fledged nigori until yesterday, but I would like to leave Senkou's Yukidharma behind and go for a slightly lighter nigori type 😀.
I'm going to open a bottle of Garakudai's Yukishita-san, known as Masayo-san in the sake world 😀.
I know that Maru-san's tastes are similar to ours, so I know it's delicious from the beginning 😇
Yes, it's delicious😇
Compared to yesterday's nigori, I felt more fruitiness as it was less cloudy 😀.
I think I can taste the difference in taste more with the light nigori 😇 マルHappy New Year, Yasube-san 🎍.
Masayo-san's Yukishita is a real treat, isn't it?
As Kotaro-san mentioned, there are different labels for the same production year. Mine was a different label. Why? I don't know 🧐. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Yasbay 😃.
Indeed, after the authentic Nigori, Masayo seems to have a more pronounced flavor 🤗.
I'm curious about the different labels too 🤔. コタローGood morning, Yasbay!
This one is delicious, isn't it? It's fun to compare the different types of wine to make their personalities stand out more 😋.
Mine had the same label as Yasbaye's, didn't it? I wonder what Maru's is? 🧐 ヤスベェGood morning, Maru 😀
I was curious too and did some research, but I'm not sure 😅.
But on the brewer's website, it was labeled as mine and Kotaro's 😅.
But on the websites of various liquor stores, there are both patterns 🤣. ヤスベェGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
It seems that nigori sake has a more robust and intense flavor, and Masayo's flavor comes through more delicately 😀.
However, the Godai nigori still had a strong flavor statement 😇. ヤスベェGood morning, Kotaro 😀.
The different color of the label is a mystery 😅.
I did a lot of research on the internet but nothing is listed 🤣.
It would be a surprise if the taste is different between what I and Kotaro-san drank and Maru-san's 🤣. ポンちゃんGood morning, Yasube!
I used to think that if nigori sake continued to be nigori, it would be clear sake, but it's nice to be able to drink different types of sake with different nigori styles! You are indeed a nigori-st ✨ ヤスベェGood evening, Pon!
Nigori sake can be enjoyed in so many different ways, it's hard to stop 🤣.
Even though it's called nigori type, it has a different taste if it's light nigori or ogurimi 😇. ちばさんHappy New Year!
The first one of the new year is this one I was lucky enough to buy!
Of course it's insanely delicious with room to spare 😋.
I look forward to working with you again this year. たっく0103Happy New Year Mr. Chiba🎍Tasake NEW YEAR bottle is delicious😋Thank you for your support in the new year. ma-ki-Happy New Year, Chiba 🎍.
I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇🙇🙇.
Tasake's perfect sake for New Year's - I want to say it's delicious with room to spare 😁✨.
A good start to the year 😊. ちばさんHappy New Year! Thank you for your comment.
It's great to be able to drink sake on the first day of the new year 😆.
Let's enjoy drinking good sake this year with each other! ヤスベェWinter Nigorinpic 8️⃣
The end of the year is finally approaching 😀.
I'm sure many of you are already on your holidays 😀.
I'm working until tomorrow, the 31st, so I can't relax yet 🤣.
I opened a bottle of Ona's nigori sake today for the last day of the year 😇
I opened the bottle with high expectations, but it was even better than I expected 😇.
It had all the things I'm looking for in nigori sake: a sense of sizzle, sweetness and umami from the rice, a solid richness, and even a crisp finish 😀 The liquor stores I often buy from, such as Yukidharma and Jikin, are said to be the four heavenly kings of nigori, comparable to the three major nigoris. I can understand why they were said to be the "Four Heavenly Kings" 😇. ma-ki-Good evening, Yasbay.
Thanks for your work until tomorrow🍀.
I am very interested in Ona's nigori with the four heavenly kings😊. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasbay 😃!
Oh! I'm glad you like it 🤗.
I'm glad you appreciate it as you said, a crisp and tasty one 👍 that you rate it as one of the Four Emperors of ‼️
Good luck with your work a little more 😌. ヤスベェGood evening, ma-ki-chan 😀
I managed to finish work before hearing the bells safely 😀.
Ona-san's nigori was really good too 😀.
But tonight I plan to open a bottle of sake that can compete with Ona-san 🤣. ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
I managed to finish this year's work safely by the end of this year 😀.
I think I can finish this year's New Year's Eve at home with a relaxing drink 😀.
Last but not least, a firm Tochigi love 💕. ちばさんI opened a bottle of Tasake to thank myself for all the hard work I've done this year.
It's delicious! It soaks through! バウムToday's bottle is "Garakudai" which I wanted to drink even more after receiving it last time.
The bottle was opened immediately.
The aroma is a little bit strong, but the first sip is refreshing. It's refreshing. ⤴️
The first sip is refreshing, and the taste is very smooth and smooth.
Delicious at any temperature!
It is a high-specification sake, but it is a good-cost sake, and can be enjoyed with food or on its own. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Mr. Baum 😃.
Masayo Narukami ‼️ is a refreshing and delicious 😋 Masayo has many faces, you will want to drink them all 😙. バウムGood morning Jay & Nobby, ☺️
I'm only on two different brands, but I'd love to win them all 😅.
We have a long road ahead of us in many ways, but it's only going to get more fun 😊. きっぺいBuying a batch of new sake towards the end of the year. We started with our first Garakudai 🍶.
It is a delicious fusion of nigori's milky flavor and the fresh gasiness, umami, and acidity of nama-shu.
It has a dry impression, and is the kind of sake that envelops even the greasiest of entrées. ジェイ&ノビィHi Kippei 😃
Congratulations on your first masayo 🎉 ㊗️
It's all-around delicious 😋.
And a good assortment😍. きっぺいJay & Nobby, the connoisseurs call it Masayo 💡 lol.
I tried it because it was newly handled at my favorite liquor store. It was delicious and I drank it so fast that I think I will run out of all 4 bottles before New Year's Eve 😮. ヤスベェFor some reason, we decided to start the Nigorinpic in our house on December 20, and we have a cellar and refrigerator overflowing with our favorite Nigori sake, but right now we are watching the Nigorinpic with our fingers crossed 😀 .
So, the last sake I chose before the Nigorinpic is Jikin's special junmai hi-ire.
I had a hard time deciding between Jungin and Tokujun, but I was in the mood for Tokujun today 🤣.
After all, no matter how many times I drink it, Jikin is always delicious 😀.
It gives me the illusion that it's still a pure sake despite the fact that it's hi-ire 😅.
Now I can move on to Nigorinpik without any worries 🤣. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Yasube!
The prelude to the opening of the Nigorinpic is now underway 而今さん‼️this will be well organized and ready for the opening 🤗. ポンちゃんGood evening, Yasbay🦉.
That's great! The eve of the Nigorinpic is now metaphysically 🎇 and I'm excited about the first Nigorinpic too 😆. あおちゃんGood morning Yasbay 😃
I'm jealous of your home brewed Jikin 😍 I see you have a Junmai Ginjo waiting for you 😍.
I'm looking forward to your Nigorinpic post!
I'm taking the liberty of guessing the start will be that one or that one? つぶちゃんGood evening, Yasube!
Jigorinpic before 而今✨ is good 😆⤴︎
Tokujun! It's delicious 😋Jikk Jikkai 🙌🙌
I'm looking forward to the Nigorinpic 🏆🤗♪ ヤスベェHi Jay & Nobby 😀.
Thank you 🙏.
We are happy to be able to start the Nigorinpic today 😀.
I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for today 🤣. ヤスベェHi Pon 😀
I've dragged this far, saying I'm going to do it like a scam to do it 🤣.
I'm most excited for a while from today because I've been waiting for it myself😇. ヤスベェHi, Ao 😀
Actually, I have bad luck with lotteries, but for some reason, I only have good luck with Jikin lotteries and the odds are over 80% 😀.
Moreover, I recently joined the hanpukai at a store where I can buy Jikkai with points 🤣. ヤスベェHi, Tsubu 😀
After all, you are a zeitgeist, aren't you😇.
Finally, we have successfully reached the day of the start of the Nigorinpik 😀.
For the time being, I am lost in the lees and bubbles 😀. ひなはなママHi Yasbay 😃
Finally the Nigorinpic starts today 🙌!
I'm looking forward to seeing the lineup😊
I love nigori too, so please refer to my review and let me enjoy it too: ❣️ ヤスベェHi, HinaHanaMama 😀.
Sorry 🙇.
I like nigori sake so much that I probably won't be able to help you at all because all I can say about any of them is that they're good or delicious... or that I can only recommend them to you 🤣. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
