Refreshing aroma✨ Sweet and sour taste like apple 🍎. Quite a sweet taste 😋. Fruity and juicy with a hint of citrus acidity 🎵

@Drinking at Home A month ago, on the way back from a visit to Katori Jingu Shrine in Chiba, we stopped by the brewery Iinuma Honke in Koshi 🚗. It was a very hot day and ☀️💦 was my usual unplanned stopover, so I gave up on the limited-edition draft sake because I didn't have any cold storage ready 😢, so I first chose the Roadster ❇️✨ that Jun-san recommended and I wanted to drink. The matte bottle is so cool 😎! Now for the taste... I'll let you know what it tastes like... HinaHanaMama gave a perfect review of it most recently 👉. (Oh, easy 😅 lol) I'll quote a part of it: "It's a bit surprisingly delicious 🤩" ☝️ (Sorry again for taking the liberty 🙏💦) But be careful if you don't like sweet taste 🙄🙄. PS. They also sell red seals made in collaboration with Katori Jingu Shrine at this direct sales place.

Good morning, N.E. 😃 Iinuma Honke! I'd love to go there ‼️ I'd love to stay there for a relaxing overnight or something 😊. I drank a roadster before, but now it would be sweet 😅...

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😆. Lately I feel like my taste buds are coming back again from liking sweet to medium and above, it's super tasty but I can't drink it all at once 😅. I'm also aiming for Kinonene SAKE CAMP 🎄⛺🎄.

Good morning, N.E. 😃 You're welcome for the review quote ❣️ it means we share the same emotions ☺️ I'm glad too 😆 perfect review is an overstatement 🤣. I'm basically just saying it's delicious 🤩😅.

Koshi and LODE STAR were opened 🎉. Looking back at Sake-no-wa, I had only drank Koshi as freshly pressed new sake, first pressed in Risshun, Summer Pilgrimage sake and Lucky Lucky Sake 🤩. I surprised myself🫢. I wanted to try more than just lucky sake, so I went to Sake-no-wa and did some research 📚. I chose the one that suits my taste.......! It turned out to be LODE STAR this time😍. I've been thinking about this one since last summer whenever I went to the liquor store and finally got around to picking it up 😆. I'll take it now 🥂. The aroma is sweet! Fruity and rich sweetness spreads in the mouth. In the second half of the bottle, it has a gentle gasiness, a thick acidity, and a slight astringency, and it finishes with a whimper. No bitterness, spiciness, or unpleasant alcohol taste. Wow, it's delicious 😋😋😋😋😋😋. Not a bit surprisingly delicious 🤩😋😋😋. It's not citrusy fresh sweetness, it's a honey-like thick🍯 sweetness, not refreshing, but not dull. The label on the back says "banana🍌 like...". Yes, I agree that it might be sweet like bananas ☝️. The sourness is like the sourness in the sweetness of banana! It's rich but not heavy, and it just keeps going and going. ❣️ No wonder it's so well received 💕 LODE STAR is excellent 😘.

Good morning, HinaHanaMama 🌞That's a very stylish label ✨️ I see what you mean about Koshi's logo at the pole star position 🤤I'm not a fan of the banana type, but I'd like to pick one up 🥰I'll never find one 😅

Japanese>English

Hi HinaHanaMama ^_^ I myself once thought that Senkou-san was all about seasonal sake. I'm really curious about the delicious Kouko that surprised HinaHanaMama ✨.

Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃 There is something about Koshi that makes me want to drink lucky sake 🤔 Again, stylish labels! LODESTAR is such a cool way to travel 😍It's a quintessence that you didn't predict and miss your taste👍.

Japanese>English

Hi Manta 😃Thank you for your comment. Koshi is the second most popular sake in Chiba after Kangiku 😍I can see why. 🤗The lucky sake was delicious, and this one is excellent too, so please try it. ❣️

Good evening, ichiro18 😄Thank you for your comment♪ Signpost, sounds good ✨I want to be someone who can be a signpost too ☺️ well, it's impossible (lol) LODESTAR, you made me feel like that 🥰.

Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃. I thought the label had changed slightly 🤔I looked back at our posts and it was 3 years ago when we drank it 🤗I was feeling all banana🍌 with the label 😊.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄! I went back and looked at your LODESTAR! It's true ❗️ the label has changed 😳 Actually, I wonder if it secretly changes every year 🤔 I'll buy a repeat next year to find out 👍I'll report back 🫡.

Hina Hana Mama Hi there 🤔. I've seen Kouko-san around a lot, but I haven't had the seasonal sake 🤔It's nice to notice the changes in the labels 😊I usually try to keep up with the changes in Sentori, but it's hard to find before that 😅.

Japanese>English

Hi Kojo 😃Thanks for your comment 😃. Popular sake is hard to get first 😅I know what you mean! Even if I get it, I don't take a good look at the label because I feel safe 💦I'll have to take a closer look next year 👀!
