It tastes like a ginjo sake. It's not fruity, but it tastes like water.

Rice used is something from Kyushu It was sent together with eel as a hometown tax return gift from Isahaya City❗️. It is a clear and dry sake with good sharpness ‼️. The sweetness is just a hint and goes well with eel. I was curious about the sake brewery that has the same name as Okinawa "Reimei", but I see they are related. It is interesting to see how many things are connected in this industry.

I got this on a trip to Nagasaki last year. I will have it while thinking back to the delicious Turkish rice and Sara Udon noodles 🤤. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is sweet and fluffy, like pudding or custard. The aroma is gentle and soothing. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky, but as the aroma suggests, it has a pudding-like flavor and a moist sweetness that fills the mouth 🍮. On the other hand, it also has a slightly tangy and pungent acidity that gives it a lightness, so it has a good balance of depth of flavor and a sharpness that goes down your throat👍. In the latter half of the bottle, the astringent taste also comes out, so the flavor can be felt as caramelized. There are also the standard "Yokoyama Goju" and "Rokujyosu", and I remember that I had a lot of trouble finding a variety at the Nagasaki airport. I also drank Nagasaki sake several times, and it seems to me that the level of sake is as high as that of shochu 😌.

It was purchased last summer at a Famima at Isahaya station. The aroma is not strong, and it is a classic sake. The taste is light, with a sweetness and umami that is not strong, followed by a sharp alcohol taste. The alcohol content is not that high, at 14 degrees. It must be a very well-made sake, since it is alkalo-sweetened and has added sugar and acidity. The tingling and numbing sensation on the tongue is also different from the gaseous sensation of other delicious sake.... If you like Showa-style hot sake + choko🍶, this might suit you. Not my cup of tea, though.

On my way back home, I went to the first sale in Nagasaki. I found this Nagasaki doburoku at a souvenir shop! As a nigori sake lover, I had to buy it! I have to try it! When I poured it into a glass, it was very fizzy and gurgling! And it's thick. It's exactly like...eating sake! Even though it has 11% alcohol, the alcohol taste is very strong 🤔. Well... it was a very strong sake 😂.

When I came to Kyushu at the end of the year and visited Unzen Fugendake, I found this sake at a liquor store I wandered by. This girl was in the fridge. I heard him asking me to buy it, so I bought it without tasting it. I bought it without tasting it. It was a liqueur, made from sake and sugar... What kind of sake is this? It tastes like sake lees dissolved in sake? It was sweet and refreshing despite its 15% alcohol content. It was easy to drink. Local production for local consumption is our motto, so it will be gone today 🫣.

Souvenirs from a trip to Nagasaki (2) Sake purchased at Amu Plaza in Nagasaki I was attracted by the limited sake shop... limited is not a fair word 😆. The taste is classic but rich 🥰. The taste is classic but rich 🥰 The sourness, sweetness, umami, and spiciness rush into your mouth 😆. When I warmed it up, the sweetness settled down and I felt the spiciness and bitterness. I prefer it cold to warm 🥰. When warmed up, it changed into a refreshing and easy to drink sake 😳.

It is clear and colorless, with aromas of cypress, jyoshinko, honeysuckle, and pear. The attack is rather weak, with mild acidity and mild sweetness, and a rather long finish.
