A gentle sweet aroma reminiscent of bananas and a refreshing melon-like fruitiness are felt, harmonizing with an elegant rice fragrance that spreads across the palate. The taste begins with a light impression, then a mellow sweetness unfolds, leaving a refreshing aftertaste with smooth acidity and a subtle bitterness.
From Sapporo to Hakodate After New Year's greetings to Fukurokuju-san, off to Mishina-san Wishing you all the best this year too 🤲 Young master was running the place solo again today "Fewer reservations today, so you can take it easy," he said Once again, we were treated to New Year's sake Last year it was Shinsei-san, but this year we could choose between Ubusuna or Akabu
After some deliberation, I chose this one I hadn't tried before. What a lovely name, Happy New Year. The taste was fruity, just to my liking. They even gave us an extra appetizer, including herring roe. This marks the start of the year at Mishina. Details: Rice: Iwate Prefecture "Gin Ginga" Polishing Ratio: 45% Designation: Junmai Daiginjo / Nama-zake Alcohol Content: 14%
I happened to stop by a liquor store and found one of my favorite bottles, so I bought it!
This fruity 60% Junmai is a quintessential example of its kind!
✨🎍🌅🌅🎍✨
I still love Akabu👍.
Great balance 😆 from the label design to the aroma, taste, sweetness, and sharpness, all are very consistent. Am I the only one who feels the lid is too hard...maybe I should try a dry 🍶 this year.
Good evening, Mr. J.
Congratulations on your 200 check-ins 🎉.
Akabusan's Junmai Daiginjo is a milestone sake - a delicious sake for sure 😋.
I haven't had this gold label one yet, so I'd like to try it someday 🤤.
Congratulations on your 200th check-in, J! 🎉🎊 Akamusashi's Jun Daiginjo—that gold label looks so cool! 🤤 The taste seems spot-on too. I haven't tried this one yet either, so I'd love to give it a pour! ☺️
35% polished Yunokoro. The aroma is elegant and mild. The mouthfeel is smooth, with a good balance of sweetness and umami. It has a luxurious and refreshing taste.
