Since it was my day off, I took a walk around Ginza area to visit liquor stores 😀.
I found a bottle of Gozenshu that I had never had at the tasting bar of Kimishimaya Ginza store, so I had a drink â
The aroma was faintly banana and muscat-like, the texture was clean, the taste was beautiful, the sake had a refreshing acidity, and I didn't detect any bitterness. It was over 30 degrees outside😅I can't get enough of cold, refreshing sake when it's hot 😍.
Hello ichiro18 😃
Touring liquor stores in Ginza in over 30 degrees Celsius 🍉.
I'm going to get drunk on water 🤣.
I hope you have a good meeting 🥰 and more importantly, I hope you get home properly 😅.
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃
Thank you very much 😊I'm a bit bleary eyed from one drink, but sweat will get rid of it w hydration, I'm going to buy another drink at another restaurant and go back home 😁.
On the way to the store, I found a liquor store! I looked in the store and saw a hard-to-find brand of Nabeshima sitting there, so I immediately bought it.
The bottle was opened with caution, so we opened it carefully.
The aroma was mild, and the first sip had a chili-like flavor. The sweetness and acidity are moderate, and the rice flavor and moderate bitterness finish it off, which I liked. It is also good value for money.
If I have a chance, I would like to drink the sparkling label.

Fruity aroma.
Firm gasiness on the palate.
Tingling sensation on the tip of the tongue and on the top of the tongue.
The aftertaste is acidic and disappears without a hitch.

Mouthfeel is sweet like rumney. The middle taste is clear with no alcohol. The taste is clear and disappears with a gentle bitterness and sourness. It is very tasty.
I heard that this brewery is really great, so I bought a bottle. It is a well-balanced bottle that is smooth without being cloying, not too polished, and has a decent umami.
I dropped by Kimishimaya on my way home from work and found Nabe-sama...!
I chilled it at home and opened it a few days later 🍾.
It's not a draft sake, but it has this sweet and tasty freshness... 🥹.
The aftertaste is so refreshing that you can have as many refills as you want 🫶.
I'd like to try different Nabesama 🍶🍶.
At MAEN, a sake pairing restaurant in Ebisu, Tokyo, I had a shocking encounter with jasmine tea.

I wish I had taken a picture of it with the contents inside 😂.
It's a beautiful rosé with depth 🍷 The aroma is a bit medicinal 💊.
The taste is like a red wine like grape juice.
The taste is like a red wine like grape juice and combined with the aroma it has a taste and flavor that I have never had before 💖.
There are many ways to drink it, but warming it up makes it easy to drink without any sharpness.
I enjoyed it with beef and pork dishes that were as rich in flavor as the red wine 🐍.
I had it with beef and pork dishes 🍖🍖.
It has a gentle sweet aroma with a hint of rice, without the roughness of a raw sake.
It has little alcohol attack and is easy to drink smoothly.
I like it😍.
It has an aroma of alcohol, a mouthfeel like matured sake, and a dry taste (though it lingers a little). It should be drunk chilled. Tokushima Yamadanishiki 40
Cool sake with a "sharp sweetness"! When you put it in your mouth, it has a strong acidity and a refreshing impression. It seems to have a sharp sweetness, but it does not end there, and the aftertaste continues gradually. It is a delicious sake with enough umami to keep you going.
Yamahai Yamadanishiki from Okuharima.
I had a drink at Ginza Kimishimaya because they were serving an aged Okuharima sake (leftover?). I have drunk it 🍶.
The first aroma is of steamed rice with a hint of mirin (sweet sake).
When you put it in your mouth, it has a hint of sweetness and plenty of matured umami.
It is dry and has a clear taste for an 80% polished sake.
Except for the mirin flavor in the first sip, I didn't notice any other peculiarities.
I think it would be better if it were warmed up 🤔.
It was delicious 🍶.
As everyone says, it is easy to drink; the great thing about this sake is that the umami and sweetness are not too strong, but rather smooth and understated. Furthermore, the acidity and the shwashiness add complexity to the taste without being overpowering. The life of this sake lies in its strange balance in which all the elements are not too assertive. Sweet sake is nowadays enjoyed as the opposite of light and dry sake, but there are some breweries that call their sake "umakuchi" and do not mind bringing the sweetness of miscellaneous flavors to the forefront. However, there are some breweries that call their sake "umaguchi" but do not hesitate to put the sweetness of the miscellaneous flavors to the forefront. I take my hat off to the imagination of the brewer who imagined and created this flavor.
