Tasted here also at Hankyu Department Store. Junmai Ginjo-shu made with Kuzuryu. It is a refreshingly dry sake, but has a sweet and fruity taste. This time I bought a bottle of unfiltered raw sake made with Jinryoku.

Tasted at Umeda Hankyu Department Store. The rice was said to be Gohyakumangoku. The quality of the sake is clean and refreshing for hiyaoroshi. It is easy to drink without a sense of maturity. As the person in charge said, it is a quiet type of sake, so I think it is suitable for a mealtime drink.

It looks like all of them use locally grown rice, as did the two types of Kitanosho I posted the other day. It seems that only Ryu-ryoku and Koko use Jinryoku all the time. I'm sure there are other places like Okura that use it for single use. When I tasted it, my impression was that it was quite sweet and the second half was heavy, but it was smoky and the flavor of the rice came through with a bang. It has a strong bitterness at the end. It is not the type of sake I would drink on its own, so I will have to wait and see. I don't think it should be chilled too much. If you like Shimane or Tottori area sake, this would be good for you. I think it has a quality of sake that would not be affected by letting it sit for a while. There are glimpses of sweetness and a fruity atmosphere, but I wonder if it's basically more of a classic. Is it a multi-faceted, multi-personality sake?

My aunt gave it to me as a New Year's gift. I've never had it before. I've never had it before, and she said it was made from Kutouryuu rice. It tastes like an old-fashioned sake, crisp and dry. I think it goes well with meat.

After buying three bottles this time, I'm sure I'll be buying several more bottles. It is relatively clean and sweet, and goes well with nabe and grilled meat. This is one of my favorite bottles every year.

Muddy sake with a moderate sweetness. It has a clean, crisp taste with a delicious rice flavor. It's great chilled, but it's also great lukewarm. Personally, it's a winter staple.

A record of a time. I can't for the life of me remember what this drink tasted like, but it must have been good because I took a picture of it.

In the Japan Series, we lost at a good point and lost the championship! We went out late to have a remorse party and drink. The manager said he was sorry that he didn't have much sake for such a day. Even so, there were 5 kinds of sake that I had never drunk before, so I tasted them! This sake from Fukui is sweet! Yamada Nishiki Daiginjo It comes in an unusual bottle! A great deal of knowledge A superb daiginjo sake brewed with the best rice and techniques. Enjoy the aroma and taste of the brewery's finest, all handmade. Yamada Nishiki is used for this sake. It is a lightly scented sake with a smooth throat feel. Awarded the Gold Prize at the Kanazawa Regional Taxation Bureau.

Kitanosho Chomeishu Junmai Sake Following Haruei Chichi's lead, I will be abstaining from alcohol tomorrow💦. I have a medical checkup coming up on July 16, so it's only 3 days but it's hard 😭 I'm going to be back on Friday, so until then I'll be working with Haruei Chichi on logistical support 👮♀️. If I don't come back on Friday, please think of me as a liver 😹 The best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best Best I've posted a Yogo bottle before, but this time it's an Issho bottle❗️. I've never had a bottle of this before, but this time I'm going to have a bottle of it ❗️I'm not a big fan of cold sake to be honest, but hot or lukewarm, it's delicious and spicy and goes really well with Japanese food 👍. Today's snacks were my wife's yakitori, edamame, sukimi tuna, and pickled cucumber and myoga with sushi vinegar. A nice hot bottle of Kitanosho makes for a great evening drink 😚👍. I wonder what it means to be drunk for a long time? But I guess it's a good omen before the medical checkup😄. Ah, I've only taken 1 day off this year and 3 days is really long😵 The best way to relieve stress when you can't drink is to shout out loud❗️ Ai-chan ‼️🥰

Manachie, depending on Friday's results, you may have more days off 😫. My father didn't have any rest days, so I guess I grew up watching his back which I shouldn't have 😅.

Good morning tkmt😃. 3 days of sobriety won't change your numbers, so stop abstaining and drink today 😆 They say you have to do it at least 3 weeks in advance to make it worthwhile. Seems it's better not to drink the day before 😅.

Recently, I've been interested in the best rice for brewing in each prefecture, and this is the first time I've opened a bottle brewed with 100% Kutouryuu rice from Fukui. The aroma has the typical alcoholic smell of sake in the forefront, and the color is quite golden. The taste has a sharp acidity and a sweetness that you can feel deep inside. It's not flashy at all, but you can feel the sharpness of sake. It is a sharp sake that will not interfere with a meal.
