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?

goodbye I'm not the one who's destined to drink. It's hard, but I can't deny it. But it's hard to stay away. It's hard just to lick that water. Sweet. No, no, no. Good bye. So what's booze for me then?　I don't know the answer. I don't even want to know. If there's one thing I know for sure. I hate labor.

Purchased in Fukui Prefecture. The moment I put it in my mouth, it was light and dry. I thought it would just end up tasting light and simple, but the moment I closed my mouth and took a breath, my mouth was filled with flavor 👀. The label said it was a green apple. The aftertaste was rich and sweet? It was delicious! It was delicious ☺️. Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio: 60%. Yeast: Brewer's yeast Alcohol content: 15 Sake Rice: Gohyakumangoku, Shinryoku rice Sake degree: +3 to +4 Amino acidity: 0.9 Acidity: 1.6 Sake Type: Light and smooth, slightly dry Produced in Fukui Prefecture

It's not too sweet, but the rice flavor is strong. This is my favorite after several bottles this season.

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.
