I drank Miyamanishiki before and enjoyed it very much.
Sweet and fruity like Aizan. There is no sense of gas. I have the impression that the atmosphere is quite different from that of Miyamanishiki. Both are delicious, though.
the sake 🍶.
The dry sake 🍶I love sweet and fruity sake, but this one is sweet too 😆😆😆It was served with steamed Tsubu (a kind of whelk). I guess dry sake goes well with seafood 🤔.
The color is a little yellowish and it has a nuance like an old sake that has aged a bit👍.
It was a drink that showed me the depth of sake 🥰🥰🥰.
Kitakyushu Sake Shop Driving Sake (3)
Another bottle at Urano Sake Shop
The fridge was full, so we chose a selection of room temperature summer sake!
Kitajima was chosen from among Shichida, Mansaku no Hana, Mikuyo, Tenju, Yamamoto, etc.!
I have the impression that you don't see this kind of sake very often even in the Kansai region.
First time drinking
Banana? Aroma
According to my research, other people think it smells like grapes.
Quite a gorgeous aroma, a little too sweet for my taste
Fairly dry.
It has a coolness typical of summer sake, but it is more on the mellow side.
It has a strong sake taste. Dry taste. Sharp and punchy.
Green apple. It has acidity, and although it is fire-roasted, it has a juicy feeling.
It is not sweet.
When matched with a meal, it rounds off the corners moderately,
It is spicy and tasty, while keeping the meal tight and standing up.
It has a good sharpness and a clear aftertaste.
A solid food sake.
Good.
The dishes here are all exciting.
Potato and carrot salad with mayo, liver skewers and sake match well.
Harukoya Okachimachi
☆☆☆☆☆
This is also a rather crisp and dry sake. It has a clear and light taste, but the aftertaste is rather long.
I don't know what bluestorm is like, but it's probably something like this. Delicious.

The ginjo aroma is not so strong, and it is a moderately dry sake with a refreshing crispness and the deliciousness of rice 😋🤗.

Shiga Prefecture, Konan City. Kitajima Sake Brewery Co.
Kitajima Miyamanishiki Junmai Ginjo Orikagarami Nama
Purchased at the joint brewery opening in Shiga.
It is served cold.
When the screw cap is twisted to open the bottle, bubbles rapidly rise to the surface of the water, but there is no rise in the water and the bottle is opened easily.
The color is milky white with lees mixed in due to the automatic stirring of the bubbles.
The heady aroma is mild and not very perceptible.
The mouthfeel is slightly effervescent with a sizzling sensation, which is felt on the tongue as a chili pepper.
The taste is rice-like and slightly sweet with a firm bitterness in the middle, I thought it would be a bit more sweet, but it was surprisingly dry and bitter impression at home.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic)
Rice polishing ratio: 55
Alcohol Content:16%.
Good evening, Nemuchi 😃.
I felt a lot of sweetness in the tasting, but it was delicious but dry and not too sweet when I drank it at home 😅.
Tasting magic 🤔.
Good evening bouken 🌛I drank at the end of the day, so it was probably more overdrinking magic than tasting magic 🤣I think it's ok since I was able to confirm it by drinking at home 😁.
Good morning, Nemuchi 😃.
The magic of tasting & drinking too much 🤣is a magic that only two people with a wide range of defenses can do 😄.
Kitajima-san! I've only had one bottle 😅Kochira is our favorite as a result 😋I'll bring it to you when I see it!
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌛There is the tasting magic 🎩 that was good when you tasted it but a little different when you bought it and drank it, and there is the overdrinking magic 🎩 that you just can't taste 🤣 Kitajima makes a lot of good sake too😄.
At my least favorite type of place, where the sake is served according to what kind of sake you want to drink,
This sake came out as a solid, sweet but ok order.
Since it was my first cup, I was careful not to drink it too vigorously.
The kind of glamorous schwash that you want to drink after a while of old man booze ✨.
I was able to find those at a liquor store 😊.
This is my first Kitajima 🥰.
I started with the supernatant ✨! It's pretty sweet 🤔 so I mixed in some ori and it cleared up a bit🍀The lactobacillus type aroma and the shuwashuwa came out and it's a dangerous one 😋It's delicious without being too sweet 💕.
Lately it's been like how you can buy a good drink for under 1700 yen 🤣.
This one is 1540 yen, which is a great cosmetic ✨Kitajima, I want to try the other ones 🎶.
Hi Mamio-san. I had an image of Kitajima as a rather old man's sake too, but I see it is a gorgeous schwashy type 🍶🫧I would love to compare Kitajima drinks 😊.
Hi Mamio 😃
We too drank Kitajima-san for the first time last year! It was delicious 😋I'll buy it again after seeing Mamio's review! I'll buy it again 👍
I also thought it was an old man's sake when I first saw it 😆.
Hi Hirupeko, good morning ☀️ Kitajima is also an old man's drink 😳This was an adult calpis soda type 🍸This is the first time I know there is a Kitajima near me, I want to try the other ones 😁.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby. ☀️ The label is an old man liquor type! I've been wanting to drink a schwash, but there aren't many lately, so I'm glad you have this one 😊I'd love to try some of the others🎶.
