Tonight I will drink nigori sake!
Today I went to 4 liquor stores with a friend and bought 6 bottles, mostly nigori type.
Hirotogawa is a delicious sake that does not betray its taste!
It has a gaseous taste. The sweetness and acidity spread quickly in the mouth, and there is a lingering aftertaste. It has a good balance.
Rice: 100% Fukushima-produced Yumenokou rice
Polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol: 15%.
This year we welcomed them with a bottle of wine!
The top clear liquid
It's so fresh!
Slightly effervescent, refreshing impression, good acidity.
Last year, it had more champagne and sweetness.
but they are a little suppressed.
It's very refreshing!
I guess there are different tastes.
I like this one better.
When I drink this sake, I think it's winter.
This year, too, I was able to buy it (after taking a guess at the time and day of the week at the online store of a liquor store I know very well)! I have a few others in the pipeline, but I'll start with Hirotogawa!
It has a strong gaseous taste when opened! It tastes like nigori.
I like this one, too, but I like to enjoy the taste after the bottle has been open for a few days to let it settle down!
Tonight we will have yellowtail shabu-shabu!
ps.
I drank two and a half cups in one day while saying that I like it after a few days.
Nice lactobacillus-like aroma, mouthfeel is shwashy and fresh✨.
Milky, juicy, sweet and refreshingly sour 😋.
😆
I'm super happy I managed to get this just before the liquor store ran out of it! 🎉🙌
Hello ◎Kitashizuku 😃
Congratulations on your GET ✨
This is so delicious ☺️
This is the true essence of Nigori, straight to the heart of the flavor, and it's a delicious and impressive taste 😍.
Good evening, Chirsta ✨.
Thank you 😆.
It's so delicious! 🙌
It's really impressive taste!
There are so many good sake available, it's hard to keep track 🤣.
Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori Nama Sake
Finally, this season has come again!
When I first encountered it five years ago
I met it 5 years ago, it fell down in a delivery service and was half gone.
This time I found it on SNS and two days later
I couldn't buy it when I went there 2 days after I found it on SNS.
everyone is trying to get it😅.
Pitchy and tasty as always 😋.
My nigori starts with Hirotogawa and ends with Miko-chan.
It's been a year of nigori for me, starting with Hirotogawa and ending with Miko-chan!
But the number of sake breweries that serve nigori has increased and I want to drink more sake.
I'm happy to hear that there are more and more sake breweries that are offering nigori.
Hi Harry 😃
I really feel like everyone is after it 😅I've secured a bottle for my family too: ‼️
I love the seafood-filled table that complements the HIRO-chan nigori even more 🤗.
Junmai nigori is the first time to drink it 🍶.
The bottle was opened carefully, stirred automatically, and tasted as good as rumored. I could feel the alcohol content and it had a ginjo feel to it. Very tasty 😋.
100% domestic rice
Polishing ratio 60
First time drinking Hirotogawa nigori
When I opened the bottle, there was a rush of gas!
It overflowed lol!
It's gassy and sweet, but also has a slight bitterness, as is typical of new sake!
As is typical of Hirotogawa, it is crisp and easy to drink!
Of the two purchases, this is the one I made today.
I decided to buy this one after seeing Kenken's post earlier.
I don't often drink nigori sake.
My wife, who took a sip with me, said it was easy to drink and gulped it down.
I don't know if it is in season this time of year, but we will have it with yellowtail shabu-shabu.
Is it not a food sake?
But it's still delicious.
I guess it's because I lived in Fukushima prefecture for a long time 😅.
Personal preference.

This is a luxurious sake, but we compared it with Jikin no Nigori. If you drink only the supernatant, it is very bitter. When it is mixed with orikiri, the sweetness spreads and it becomes delicious. On the other hand, Jikin no Nigori is different in that it has sweetness, bitterness, and sourness. Both are delicious.
The bottle was opened without blowing at all.
The aroma of nigori, or rice. Or rather, the aroma of rice.
The sourness comes first, then the dryness, and then the swallow. Then, the umami of rice spreads in the aftertaste.
It is not sweet by any means, but it is delicious enough to make you look forward to it.
I read the warning and opened the bottle carefully... but it overflowed 🤣.
Slightly carbonated
Sourness and sweetness like yogurt!
This is easy to drink and delicious 😋.
Light peach and melon-like aroma🍈🍑.
Fresh and fresh on the palate.
The beautiful sweetness of the sugar spreads elegantly ☺️✨
The light acidity
leaving a lingering taste of umami and sweetness.
It landed beautifully 🙌✨.
Too awesome...❤️💐
