It is dry and strong on the palate, but has a refreshing aftertaste. Sake rice is Aiyama or something like that. Slightly cloudy color. Aizan drinking comparison set at Ginza Kimishimaya.
Ganki-no-1 is said to be the first ganki to be introduced to the world.
When you sip it, you will feel the crystal clear brewing water, but later you will be pleasantly surprised by the three-dimensional acidity and lingering umami flavor. You will not get tired of drinking it.
It has a gourd-like aroma, is quite leesy and fizzy in the mouth, and has a good balance of acidity and sweetness, with a full-bodied or umami aftertaste.
You can feel the clear brewing water.
It has a nice balance between a gentle gourd-type aroma and a slight sweetness and sourness. It feels like you will never get tired of drinking it.
On my way home, I couldn't get straight down to the subway entrance.
I went in there in a daze.
Soft and deliciously crisp 🍶.
The label doesn't say, but it's made from 50 % Doyumachi.
I was confused, but I decided to finish it after one glass.
I went straight home 😊.
I was in a great mood but
I wobbled down the stairs😅
But still, even though I love it
I'm still weak in alcohol 😂.
Hi Asanami 😃I know how you feel, if there was a corner store on my way home, I would stop by 😊I'm mainly at home now, so I'm a little sad that I don't have that temptation, but my cellar is close❣️, so I always need to replenish 😅.
Good evening, Harry Sakeboy! I'm jealous of your cellar nearby too 🎉 Just looking at it makes me happy. This one is more of a commuting shift from home and even a cup of corner coffee is a small weekday comfort ☺️.
Continuation of standing bars part2
Tsururei vs Nishikiya
Nishikiya, first encounter.
Apple-like aroma, a sip.
Loose acidity runs through it, though it is sharp.
Not fruity, as is often the case with modern sake these days.
This may transform into a rounded sake when heated up.
Well, since we are in the city center, let's look in different stores.
Let's see 😅
I'm having a drink in Tokyo today.
Arrive early and check in for a standing drink❣️.
We had a Junmai Ginjo drinking comparison.
Tsururei vs Wataya
The first one is Tsururei, which seems to be a sake stored in a snow cellar.
Take a sip with a light mucky smell.
As the name suggests, it is light and dry, with a strong acidity.
Maybe it was too much because I was hungry and didn't have any snacks...
But I've got some good yakitori waiting for me later.
Gaman gaman😅
Good evening, Rika. I felt that it is important to go out for a drink once in a while. I drink a lot at home so I'm taking it easy 😅I'm serious about my drinking 😅and it's good to do that once in a while 😊.
Good evening Harry Sakeboy 🌆.
Drinking party at ZAGIN⁉️?
It's a back hill👍
Sorry for the Ukrainian people, but I hope this peace will last for a long time...
Good evening, Haruei Chichi. The stores are having a real hard time because Corona is still unsettled, and I forgot to take a picture of the sake at the yakitori shop 😅.
I've never seen such a tiny Nabeshima. 300ml, 490 yen!
Aroma of Nabeshima, even though it is tiny. The taste of Nabeshima is very strong in the mouth. The chili flavor is not as expected. However, the umami is also very tangy and has a nice finish. This is delicious. Great for when you want a light drink!
🕺🕺🕺🕺
Nice to meet you ❣️Oita sake 🍶.
It is a sweet and gentle sake.
The rice is well melted ✨.
Spring limited edition sake.
In a recommended wine glass 🥂.
At Kimishimaya.
"We don't carry a lot of sweet stuff.
I was told that the standing bar
I found 🤩 on the menu, so no hesitation!
Miso marinated cheese
It goes well with it.
Aperitif for lunch
Now it is 🌸
Specially grown rice 100% Gohyakumangoku from Nasu
The farmer is also a contract grower and uses less than half the amount of pesticides and chemical fertilizers.
Polishing ratio 55
The first sip has a strong alcohol taste typical of Japanese sake and feels like standard sake, but it is delicious and refreshing with no cloying taste.
The more you drink, the more you want more sake.
