I drank nigori before, so this time I tried clear sake.
Delicious😄.
The umami acidity is of course delicious, but the exquisite bitterness is irresistible. I personally think it's a good sake for a mealtime drink!
I think it mellows out a bit after a day of drinking. I think I like it better when it is freshly opened 😊.
sake made without added alcohol or sugar
Fresh, acidic and spicy. A little sweetness, a little caramel. It is different from Ibuki's strong umami. It has umami, but it's still umami. It has a gradually increasing umami flavor. 86 points.
Sweetness: 2.8
Sourness:3.3
Dryness:2.6
Aroma: 2.6
This was my first time drinking it and it was so well balanced that I want to drink it again and again🍶.
It had just the right amount of sweetness and spiciness, and the right amount of shades of gray.
My impression is that it is fruity.
After I went to Sendai, I was given Miyagi sake continuously and I wanted to go back to my roots because there were a lot of refreshing types of sake 💕I wanted to go back to my roots 💕.
Sometimes I want to drink sweet and fruity after a long time of oyaji sake, but then I get bored in the middle 😅.
However, Ippo Yumi is the best balance for me, so I can go back to it without any worries ✨.
Maybe it's because it's been sitting here for a few months, or maybe it's because I've been drinking refreshing drinks lately 🤔 I found it sweeter than usual.
But the elegant bitterness afterwards and the aftertaste that seems to disappear quickly is refreshing🍀.
Kore Kore ✨my best balance 🥰.
I've been curious about this one since I saw Rafa papa's review of it recently, but that Junmai from this year hasn't come into my local liquor store yet 🤣.
I'll check it out in a bit and can't wait to drink it!
Good evening, Mamio 😃.
As soon as I see this picture, I know it's your contribution 🤗If you take a step yourself, it looks delicious😊You're right, I feel like drinking Junmai 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ☀️ my regular liquor store still only has last year's 😭I like this light nigori the best of the ones they have right now 😍Please try it next year!
Ippouki Junmai Genshu
I've been wanting to drink it for a long time after seeing many people's reviews.
I've always wanted to drink it 😋.
Ippouki...my first time 😊.
I got it from Maru 🤣.
Thank you 😌.
The sweetness and umami of Junmai spreads in the mouth...
Fruity sourness followed by
The fruity acidity is followed by a bitter taste...
Finally, the astringent taste sinks in...
The taste changes in every sip...
This is interesting 🤣
And delicious 😋.
Thank you, Maru-san!
It was delicious 😌.
Good morning, Rafa papa 😀
Congratulations on your first step 😀
I also read your post on sake-no-wa and I really wanted to try this sake, it was very interesting 😀.
Next time, I'd love to try nigori sake 😇
Hi Rafa😊
I'm glad it suits your palate: ☺️
I was introduced by the store owner as a sake that tasted like akabu, which was my first step myself.
I thought it tasted a bit different though 🤣.
Hi Rafa 😃Congratulations on your first Ippoumi 😃㊗️ Ippoumi is delicious 😋When the South Osaka liquor store tour comes to fruition, let's go to a store that carries it 👍Yuki will guide you to it ‼️
Rafa, congratulations on your first step 🎉!
It's an interesting drink that changes in your mouth 😳I've always wanted to try it, but now I'm interested all at once 😁.
Good morning Yasubeyesan 😃
Thanks to Maru, I finally got to drink one step myself 🤣I keep finding sake I'm interested in, but I don't have the guts to go on an expedition for it 😅Nigori also looks delicious 😋.
Good morning Maru 😃
Thank you for the delicious drink 😊I didn't feel much of the Akabu style 😁Maybe the earnestness is something that is common....I don't know 🤣.
Good morning Mr. Wakata 😃
I see you can also buy Ippo-self in Minami Osaka 😳I'm afraid with Yuki's guide I'll have too much sake to buy 🤣I'll have to save my allowance while I can 😁...
Good morning, Pon-chan 😃.
The expression changes in the mouth... it's a very expressive and versatile drink 🤤It was an omoroi drink 🤣 the astringent taste at the end is a nice accent 👍
Good morning, Mr. Sashiu 😃.
I like the way you express your own unique taste without any blurriness 😊I was nodding my head at the "smeared and dusty" 🤣.
Good evening, Rafa-san 😆 I always try to drink it in early spring and autumn because I have the impression that it has a fresh and soft sake quality with a strong core flavor. I always try to drink it in early spring and fall. Jungin in autumn is also delicious 😊.
Good evening, Hirupeko-san.
Hirupeko-san I've been wondering where you get your drinks 🤣Hirupeko-san where do you get them 🙄 for some reason you sound like a sumo wrestler with "Mt. Rafa" 😁.
In the mouth, the elegant fruity flavor and the delicious rice flavor are in perfect harmony and seem to dance on the tongue.
The smooth taste and refreshing aftertaste will leave you with a pleasant sensation.

Today there was a sake tasting in Sendai and I drank a lot of sake from noon.
And in the evening, I went to an izakaya (Japanese style bar) that I wanted to go to, and drank some crispy grilled chicken skin skewers and Ippo myself!
I drank so much today that I can't really taste it anymore, but it's delicious!
SAKEWA Kansai Chapter 2024 New Year's Party Report: 1️⃣
I know it's a little late, but I'm starting the New Year's Party Report. (I'm glad I could do it before the next one starts💦)
The first meeting was at Fusae in the 2nd building, but I saved it for beer so I could enjoy the all-you-can-drink first meeting (everyone drank almost all the beer in the first round, though...)
After that, we took the Yotsubashi line to Higobashi and arrived at the venue for this event, "Ojisan to Sake" 🚇.
I ordered Ippo-self by QR mobile order, but mine didn't go through due to being on the same flight as bouken-san's, so I ended up asking bouken-san to share it with me 💡.
It was a perfect toast with a refined sweetness like wasanbon and flowed smoothly ✨.
By the way, I saw on NHK Family Cheers on March 11 that Tsurube visited the brewery and it made me want to drink it again 💨.
Good evening, Yoohee 🌛I have a feeling that now that this report has started...I have a feeling that the CI calendar is pretty much like someone who has quit... 🙄 More reports will be coming in June 🤣Good luck 👊
Good morning, Yoohee 😃.
Nemuchi is right, it's an ordeal new year party repo 😆 good luck 👋.
And Ippo you are delicious, aren't you? We want to drink it raw too 🤩.
Good morning Mr. Yoohee 😃
Yoohee, you are the type of person who works hard at the task at hand 😁I think that type of person will make it big... I don't know 🤣.
Good morning brother Nemuchi, ☀︎
Yes, I'm a ghost club member once again in June, so I have to finish my March post as soon as possible 💨.
Thanks again for your support 📣.
I'm hoping to somehow close the gap to 2 months ‼️
Good morning Jay & Nobby ☀︎
Every offline meeting is an ordeal 🌊.
But it's fun to see you all and it's good to write as I remember👍.
After all, early spring is the fresh sake rush, so there's more to drink ⤴️
Rafa, good evening. ⭐︎
I have a tendency to put things off until later, so I have to move quickly 💨.
I'm the type of person who can't keep anything going for very long, so maybe I'm just trying to keep it going at least with the sake ✨.
Good evening, brother bouken. ⭐︎
I'm remembering the last meeting, and I hope we can enjoy the next meeting as well👍.
My memory of the last part is a bit hazy, but I do remember that I bought some drinks at bou's and Auntie's place, lol.
