The top aroma is reminiscent of melon.
In the mouth, there is a slight feeling of gas.
The full, layered sweetness and umami that is often found in Omachi sake can be felt, and the elegant acidity tightens everything up.
Finally, a slight astringency comes and goes.
It is refreshing and juicy at the same time.
It is a very delicious sake that lives up to its reputation.
I'm drinking at home🎶🎵
I went to a liquor store near my work!
I knew it would be Morishima at this store!
I was so confused between 4 kinds of Morishima!
Dry Modern Classic
Red label and black bottle with small words "dry" 👀😍 I decided on this one!
The aroma was subdued, the taste was subtle and fruity from tangy to dry, and the sharpness from bitter 🙆.
I heard it goes well with meat dishes, so I'll try it with 🍖 tomorrow.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😊
First time drinking this red label😍.
It is dry and delicious! The second day it became less bitter and spicy and I love it 👌 It's your neighbor's sake, isn't it? Please get some!
Immediately after opening the bottle, this red sake was more refreshing and tastier than the black one from the other day.
Sake is converted by the passage of time, but it is even more difficult to do so with nama-zake.
I am not sure if I will be able to drink it while it is still tasty.
I think the taste is more subdued if you let it sit for a little longer than if you just opened it.
I think that most sake from the Kanto region is...well, not so good, but Morishima is quite good.
Rice polishing ratio 50%.

This sake has a mild aroma and a clear appearance and taste.
It is gradually becoming more and more common to see it placed in restaurants in Ibaraki Prefecture where sake refrigerators can be seen👍.
Morishima's label is almost all the way around the top and bottom of the bottle, so I always wonder how best to photograph the bottle😅.
I'm going back to my usual home drinking 😅 after yesterday.
If you drink out all the time, it will hurt your wallet 😭.
Now to get back on track, today we will open our first bottle of Morishima from Ibaraki 🍶.
You can't buy this sake in Hiroshima, so I got it by a bit of a legend 😆.
Straight from the bottle, the aroma wasn't that strong... but when poured into a glass, it smells like muscat 😁.
It's pretty good 🤤.
Now then... a sip.
The mouthfeel is gentle and tastes like muscat, just like the aroma 🥰.
Then, a bit of spiciness...maybe because it's 15 degrees higher than the recently popular 13-14 degree sake? The balance is good 🙆. But the balance is good🙆
It seems to be good before, during and after meals...but if you have dessert 🍨 after meal, it might cancel the sweetness of the dessert😅😅.
I think it would be good before or during a meal🙆.
Well, what happens tomorrow: ⁉️
Day 2🗒️
Because of the fire 🔥? No big change in taste 🤔.
On the contrary, it tastes stable and easy to drink 🍸.
Hello, Koi Seagulls 😃!
Congratulations on your first Morishima-san ㊗️ with Miyamanishiki 🎉This one is so good 😋 we had a first drink and immediately repurchased it 😄.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙
It tastes like white wine and is very easy to drink 🥰.
I'm not sure I'd repeat it, but I didn't have a good image of sake from Ibaraki, so I can understand why it's so popular if it tastes like this 👌.
The proprietress of the sake store recommended us to try the dry sake 🤗I hope you find a sake that suits your palate 👵🏻 and the polite service from start to finish 😊.
Maybe it's the heat, maybe it's my changing taste buds... I can now drink fruity dry sake with pleasure 🥹.
I'm getting a hint of whey, but also pear and banana aroma? Some minerality gives it a light, crisp, hard impression. Oh my, elegant 😚 The entry is sweet and full-bodied and juicy 😚 The back palate is crisp and refreshing with a sharp acidity 😚.
The third one, I wonder if the disposable chopsticks won't fall over. The pork bone was thicker than it looked .
Hello, Kotori 😃
Oh! This is exactly what Nobby went to Maru Fuji to buy yesterday and they were sold out 🥲.
I remember it was recommended to us before we woke up to the dry taste too 😌 but we didn't buy it then 😅.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 🐥I'm sorry to hear that 😩I don't think you two are too harsh 🤗Other customers bought the same 🟥 and Morishima is very popular with all of them 👵🏻. Penguin🐧I was worried but didn't buy it and regretted it🥲.
