To Japanese sake lovers, it's a season of new Japanese sake. So yesterday afternoon, we drove to the Japanese sake maker that we always go to. The purpose of our visit is new season's Japanese Sake Kasu(Japanese sake scums). You can only buy Japanese Sake Kasu during this season. Compared to Japanese Sake Kasu sold in supermarkets, Japanese Sake Kasu sold in Japanese Sake Kasu is thick, full of alcohol and delicious! And 500g is about ¥300 is relatively cheap,too. We eat it by making Japanese Sake Kasu soup or bake it on the net, put some sugar on it and eat it. I think we can enjoy delicious Japanese Sake Kasu for a while. By the way, new Japanese Sake will be out in the beginning of this week.
Actually, I recently started drinking sake with my dinner. Usually, I drink mostly beer in summer and mostly wine in winter. But the problem is that wine doesn't always mix well with Japanese food, especially sushi, because of the wasabi!
I like sake but the problem is that although I know quite a lot about wine, I know very little about sake, so it's difficult for me to choose which one to buy. I've decided to study more about sake this winter!

I can understand what you mean by wine doesn't always mix with Japanese food. We don't like beer very much because it makes us full. So we drink a little bit of sake during dinner. I recently started drinking sake,too. But since I come from a sake lover family, I know sake through watching my dad. I hope you find your favorite brand of sake this winter!
