We had it warmed up. You can feel the umami of the rice. As the temperature drops, it becomes softer and softer. We paired it with simmered dishes, and since the temperature range is similar, it was a great match for winter.
Today was a cold day with snowy weather even in my hometown Aichi. ⛄️
I think it's best to drink hot sake on a super cold day. I love it 🍶.
I got one cup of my favorite Burozumi from a stamp rally at my favorite restaurant during the year-end and New Year's holidays.
Brewed with yamahai, wooden vat, and brewer's yeast, this sake is very filling. It is not so hot as to be called "very dry," but when heated, the umami flavor fills your mouth. 😋😋😋😋😋
Good morning, NITO 🐥.
It's cold 🥶🥶It's snowing in Shiga ❄.
It's nice and easy to warm up sake in a cup...and it's Furoizumi! It's a delicious sake to warm up. ❣️
It's so warming to see it in a pot 😊.
Hello, Bon-chan!
Is it snowing in Shiga? The sky looks like it might start falling even now in Aichi. ⛄️
Burozumi is delicious, isn't it? I love it, especially hot sake. I'm sure you'll enjoy it 🍶.
Yamahai raw 🍶Shu mother 4-step brewing ✨Sake for the summer season☀️6% Yamadanishiki from Shiga Prefecture (mother) 🌾94% Hoshijirushi from Shiga Prefecture (moromi) 🌾.
There is no indication on the label, but it's from Furozumi 😅 The acidity is holding back what could have been a guttural grassy taste. The acidity is suppressed to a great extent where it would be grassy and guttural. It has a sourness like plum wine. The dried ayu fish gives a little spiciness, which is a good match 👍 The gizzard skewers soften the bitterness that was felt a little bit. ☺️ The peach paste with white sauce makes the acidity stand out. But it's not bad.
Umi to @Takadanobaba 20240911
Sorry for the delay💦.
Happy New Year 🎍!
And thanks to all of you, I was able to move up to the 5th grade at Sake-no-wa. 💮💮💮💮💮
Thank you all for your continued support this year 🙇.
I was curious about this sake because Matsuchiyo-san and Hirupeko-san drank it!
I was curious about this sake because it is a fast brewed freshly squeezed sake.
I'm curious to know what it tastes like 😊.
Polishing ratio 60
Alcohol 17%.
Classic aroma, slightly yellow
The taste is also classic, but with a sourness that makes it easy to drink.
On the second day, it became sweeter and more square.
It's a solid sake, so we decided to try heating it up.
The sweetness of the rice is up when it is warmed up to human skin, and the acidity makes it easier to drink than cold sake.
When warmed up to lukewarm, it has more rice flavor, more umami than sweetness, and less acidity. It is also delicious. ❣️
If you turn up the temperature a little more, it has a more ricey taste.
I preferred it lukewarm 😊.
It's great with osebushi, nabe, garlic cheese, etc.
It was lighter than Yamahai, while still retaining the robust flavor that is typical of Furozumi.
I should drink local sake every once in a while to update it 😅.
Hi Pon, hello here too😊.
I've never had Furozumi, but reading your comment, it looks delicious 😋. I'm a bit of a banned drinker myself, so it sounds even more delicious 🤣I imagine heated sake.
The dokuraku is cute too😘.
Congratulations, Pon, on your 5th year of sakéwa: ㊗️🍶🙆💮㊗️
Back to basics, local sake, it's intoxicating 🍶.
I haven't had this one yet, but it reminded me of the Soma Ten that Hirupeko gave me before 🤤I'd like to try this first Shibori too!
Congratulations on your 5th year, Ponchan: ㊗️🎊🎉!
I've been interested in heated sake lately, and you nailed it with your careful and detailed heated sake reviews 🤩.
I thought I might buy a heated sake machine and try some myself ❗️😆
Pon, nice to meet you again😄
You're a 5th grader 🍶You're a big senior 🍶🙇♂️
Your review is also a great translation😊❣️
I would like to follow your senior's example and devote myself to it 🫡.
Pon-chan, once again, best wishes for another year 😊and congratulations on moving up to the 5th grade 🥳I'd love to learn from your great reviews 😌✨.
The robust flavor is great to pair with gutsy dishes👍
Good evening, Pon 😀
Congratulations on your advancement to the fifth grade: ㊗️
I too would like to follow the example of Pon-chan senior and devote myself more and more to it 🙏🙇 Thank you very much.
Hi Ponchan 😃
Congratulations on your 5th grade advancement ㊗️ Nice picture of the piece attached to the Bulao spring ☺️ The review of the change in taste of the temperature range is also very informative. I hope to learn from you so that I can do such a review too 🥰.
Happy New Year, Pon 🎍.
Happy 5th year too 🎉.
You're starting off with a solid local sake: ⤴️
I got interested in Furoizumi when you recommended the active nigori, so I'm looking forward to trying something this year😊.
Ponchan㊗️5Congrats on moving up to the next grade 💮It's local love with Shiga sake🥹Is that a handmade frame made with a craft band? I remember making them a long time ago and I miss them 🎍New year's greetings to you 🐥.
Pon-chan, ㊗️5th year 🎉✨This year we didn't pass the New Year at Burozumi because of the passion of the sales staff of Matsu-no-hana, but I'm glad you enjoyed it 😆 Like Burozumi and Matsu-no-hana, local sake should be cherished 😊.
Happy New Year, Pon-chan ⛩.
And sakéwa 5th grade advancement too💮💮💮💮💮😆㊗️
We are classmates 😭⁉️ no, you are a little bit older than me 😄❗️ I look forward to working with you this year 🙇.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
Congratulations on your promotion 🎉we were in the same grade for a while 😅I'll try to catch up with you again in November🤗.
And nice to start the new year with local sake 👍We also want to drink Bulao Spring and become immortal 😄!
Good evening, Ponchan.
Congratulations on moving up to the 5th grade 🌸㊗️
I've never seen this Bulao spring before😊.
Is it similar to the tengu in the balance squeezing soma 🤔?
Good morning, Ponchan 😁 I look forward to working with you this year 🙇.
Congratulations on your 5th grade 💮㊗️
I'm sorry you have to forego buying local sake 😰.
I think I will drink some local sake this year too, brands I haven't bought before 😁.
Pon.
Good morning 😊.
Best wishes for the new year 😊
The photo with the dokuraku is very cute and well placed! That's what I'm talking about 👍
Classic sake is heated sake 😁.
Congratulations on your advancement, Pon 🏫!
Checking in with Shiga love 🥰 overflowing "Furoizumi" 😁.
It's interesting to see a brewery that specializes in Yamahai shipping the exact opposite, early ripening ✨.
It makes me want to try a little drinking comparison 💡.
Good evening, Takashi 🦉.
I bought it for that because many of the sake are good when heated 😁.
It's hard when you can't drink 😢I'm also a little bit sober 😭
Good evening, Hanapin 🦉.
Thank you 😊I didn't think I could continue like this 😳Thanks to all of you including Hanapin 🙏.
I look forward to working with you again this year 😊.
Thank you Aladdin 😊.
I always buy a lot of sake in Kyoto, so at least I buy Shiga sake at my local liquor store for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day 😅.
I see you are drinking Somaten! I haven't had it for a while but I think Somaten is lighter 🤔
Thank you very much, Hiro 😊.
I'm glad you've entered the world of heated sake as well 😆Heating sake helps to eliminate the undrinkable drinks 😂It's getting harder and harder to choose the right sake at the liquor store, but by all means enjoy it 😊👍
Mr. Muro, once again, thank you for your support this year 🙇.
I'm a weak 5th grader who can't drink and can't write 🤣I want to be surrounded by great drinks like you Muro 😆👍I want my reviews to be fun too 😂.
@Mizuhashi, Happy New Year 🎍.
I'm ashamed to say that I'm going to stop drinking during the year-end and New Year's holidays unless I decide to drink local sake 😅 even though it's a brand new sake 😂.
It's getting colder so it's delicious warmed up 😉.
Thank you, Kotaro 😊.
I like that it's fresh yet robust, so it goes well with a wide range of dishes as you said 😋 I thought it would be a shame to heat it up because it's freshly squeezed, but it's good 😊.
Thank you Yasbay 😊.
It's been 5 years in the blink of an eye 😳It really is a year early 😂I want to do a drinking comparison this year too! Hopefully I can do it in a four-pack at home like Yasbaye ✨
Thank you very much, HinaHanaMama 😊.
No, no, I always wish I could write as deliciously as you do 😊😊To convey delicious sake in a tasty way, that's my challenge this year 😁.
Happy New Year, Mr. Matsuchiyosan🎍Thank you very much for the drink 😊It tastes great warmed up, so be sure to try it!

Thank you very much, ma-ki 😊.
I haven't had a few lately, but it's easy to drink among Furozumi's. 😊Active nigorigo is also good cold 😊It seems they make a lot of different kinds of sake, I had to drink it 😅.
Thank you very much, Kotori 😊
I'm so glad to hear you've made a koma before 😳👍✨This is a "kyokoma", a traditional Kyoto craft made by winding cotton strings, and I'm clumsy, so I bought it 🤣.
Happy New Year, Maechen 🎍 and thank you 😊.
I don't have enough love for my hometown these days 😂I have to remind myself every year to buy local sake at the local liquor store at least for New Year's Day 😂.
Thank you, Peco 😊.
You always drink Takashima sake, so I'm sure you're a natural 👍✨Yes, the Shiga edition of the Yomiuri Shimbun has been running a series on Shiga sake since the beginning of the year, and it's great to see the breweries and rice farmers in the series! If you haven't read it, you should!
Thank you, Jay & Nobby 😊.
We are classmates! Maybe many of you started drinking home 🤔 during the Corona period 😁 I'm one of them!
Buro onsen, that's a great name, isn't it? There was a hot spring in Beppu with the same name ♨️
Thank you, bouken 😊.
I drank it and wondered how it differs from Somaten, but I guess Somaten is easier to drink and tastes better warmed up 🤔Somaten might be different as I haven't drank it recently 💦approve 💦🙏.
Ao, thank you 😊.
I thought I could drink Shiga/Kyoto anytime I went through, but a lot of things have changed and increased 💦I'm going to try and buy Kyoto at Isetan 😁.
I look forward to working with you this year 🙏.
Koizo, I look forward to working with you again this year 😊.
I think we are in the same year 😆 The year goes by so fast! I just keep accumulating notes of the drinks I want to drink 😂that's where I feel the length of time 😁.
Happy New Year, Tsuyodai 🎍 and a happy new year 🙇.
Soma no Tengu is fresh, isn't it? I haven't had it for a long time so I was wondering what it was like 😁I'll have a proper drink next time and check 😊.
Thank you, Gyve 😊.
Yes, it is true! I really want to have a 3 fresh showdown with this one, Furoquen's Usu nigori, and Soma's Tengu Usu nigori... I wonder if Mr. Asano will do it for me 🤣.
Pon.
Happy New Year 😊
And 👍 for the 5th year of Sakewa too!
I've been drinking out of basic cold sake, but this year I think I'll warm it up and taste it ✌️
I look forward to working with you this year 🙇.
Happy New Year and thank you, Manta 😊.
I used to hate heated sake because of my cat tongue, but now that I know it can be enjoyed at various temperatures, I'm OK with it 😁 It's delicious now that it's cold 😋.
Pon-chan, congrats on moving up to the 5th grade at Sake-no-wa 🎉It seems like each year goes by faster than the last. 〰︎
I've only had the Burozumi yamahai junmai sake deliciously warmed, but this first bottling looks delicious too 😋 I'd love to try it heated 😘.
Thanks a lot, Tsubu 🥹.
I can't believe it's been that long already 😳and I'm glad we're both still here 😊Keep up the good work 🙏.
I think it's even better when it's warmed up 😌😌 since it's cold right now...
Happy New Year!
After installing the Sake-no-wa app, my knowledge of sake has increased and I am able to enjoy drinking sake more.
Frosen Umakan
I brought this as a gift to my father-in-law when I went to greet him at the beginning of the year.
Specific name Junmai
Alcohol percentage 15
Sake meter degree +3
Acidity 1.7
Amino acidity 1.6
Rice / Polishing ratio
Mizukagami 77% from Shiga Prefecture (65% polished rice)
Akebono 23% (65% polished rice)
Yeast: Kura yeast
Sake mother Yamahai
The aroma has a sweetness like that of steamed sweet potatoes, with a gentle fragrance of nuts and grass.
In the mouth, there is a mellow and soft attack of umami. The moist umami spreads, and the acidity extends into the latter half of the bottle. The acidity and pleasant bitter bitterness cut through the aftertaste and bring it to the finish.
As the name suggests, we recommend heating it up to 50-55 degrees Celsius to enjoy its body-sucking flavor.
(Kawada research), Happy New Year 🎍 and best wishes for the new year 🙇.
This sake changes dramatically when it is heated 😊It is good to drink it slowly together!
