I heard a voice actor say that the sake of Yamaguchi Prefecture is delicious ottersai, but Toyo Bijin! So I bought it. It's very dry, and the first sip is so spicy that it's hard to believe, but the aftertaste disappears quickly. Yes, it is indeed delicious. I want to drink the other ones too. This is good. I also got some sake for the new year, but I'll post more about that in the New Year.

I'm not going to let anything stop me. Lightly crisp, fruity, sweet and sour aroma. Melon Horseback or Pear Because it is origari, it is light white. The aftertaste is moderately sour and refreshing. It is easy to drink and is perfect for when you want to lift your spirits.

This is my first Toyo Bijin. I had drunk Yachiyo Shuzo's Room twice and wondered what kind of Toyo Bijin was in its class, but I happened to find it at a store I had been visiting for a while, so I bought it on the spur of the moment! The standing aroma is tropical and a bit gorgeous with pineapple and melon fruits. Is this the sweetness of Oriental Beauty? The sweetness is firm but moist and not stinging! There is also an impression of peach in addition to the fruits mentioned earlier. It is sweet, but not unpleasantly so, and has a very elegant bitterness, so it can be paired with appetizers, such as salads and cheese. This is the taste of Miyamanishiki of Hanahayo and Junodai of Hachitanishiki, right? This is delicious! Speaking of fruity sweet sake without any corners, Ding was great, but Toyo Bijin is also great!

Gorgeous and fruity. Compared to the Jyundo Ittou and Princess Michiko wines we have had in the past, this one is light and refreshing. Compared to the more modern and modern Snow Kayasha Junmai Ginjo in the same price range, this one has more acidity and fruitiness. （It has more acidity and fruitiness than the Snowy Kayasha Junmai Ginjo, which is more modern and in the same price range.) Snow Kayasha is a bit more robust and bitter. I like both. They are delicious. Postscript: I compared 3 Junmai Ginjos that I have on hand, including the price, that I think are in the same family. Toyo Bijin: the most fruity with a strong acidity Yukino Kayasha: sweet with a strong bitterness Seductive: Sweetness is strong, bitterness and acidity are about the same. I like sweetness and heaviness, so I think I would choose "Seduction skill" as the best.

In the sake section of a well-known supermarket near my office, a banner for new sake caught my eye! I immediately grabbed this one, which was the last of its kind (lol). I had a bottle of Toyo Bijin Jyundo Ittou Limited Junmai Ginjo Nao Kumi Nama. The nose has a sweet, muscat-like ginjo aroma with a very gorgeous fragrance. I love this aroma, I love this aroma! In the mouth, the mellow sweetness fills the mouth, and the lingering aftertaste slowly and beautifully fades away. Mmmm, delicious! The fruity, dark sweetness fades out nicely at the end. However, I'm a sucker for the words "limited edition" and "directly pumped" 💦.

Toyo Bijin Jyundo Isshu Nama Both the aroma and taste are gorgeous pineapple! As every time, the pineapple taste is in full bloom in the capsule! It's a very refreshing and clean tasting sake as usual, so you can enjoy it as much as you want! And as usual, the taste is so clean and beautiful that you can drink as much as you want...

My usual liquor store had a bottle of Toyo Bijin's undrinkable sake rice in stock, so I bought it immediately. It is an original sake rice from Yamaguchi Prefecture, and as usual, it is easy to drink. It is difficult to describe, but the taste is soft and fluffy on the palate, and it goes away after a while. The sweetness is fruity, but it is like adding spiciness and acidity to the Hakutsuru Rice Toyo Bijin. Either way, it is stable and tasty, and I think it is a flavor for autumn and winter.

Purchased at a convenience store in Yamaguchi prefecture. 300 ml is just over 600 yen. The taste is reminiscent of honey, with a hint of milk tea. It has a distinctive flavor and is very tasty.

Kinuya is a supermarket in the San'in region, centered in Masuda City, Shimane Prefecture, and extending west to Hagi City and east to the Iwami region. Sumikawa Sake Brewery has produced a sake exclusively for Kinuya. The mark under the Junmai Ginjo on the label is the Kinuya mark. There is only one store in Hiroshima City in the Sanyo region, and my wife picked it up while she was shopping 😊. The surprising thing is the cosmetics. It is a Junmai Ginjo with a 50% rice polishing ratio, 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hagi City. A four-pack bottle with these specs costs around 1,200 yen without tax (if I'm wrong, I'm sorry 🙏 ). The mouthfeel is fruity and sweet like a melon. It has a full-bodied taste, and it seems to penetrate the body gradually. Easy to drink and reasonably priced, this sake is easy to recommend to those who are not accustomed to drinking sake.

Good evening, soumacho. I'm so jealous that you can buy Toyo Bijin at the supermarket ✨. I had a variety of mondo ichizuko this year, and I remember they were all really good 🎵. I would like to drink more of this brewery's sake in the future 😊.

Good evening, ma-ki-chan 😃. Toyo Bijin is not only delicious, but I appreciate its stable availability 🍶. I was shocked to find Sanuki Kuraudei at a 7-Eleven in Tokushima City during my recent trip to Shikoku 💦.
