It is a versatile sake that can be served as the main ingredient or as an in-between-dinner drink, and everyone will find it delicious🍶.
Second one at Kumamoto Travel Hotel! First time here too!
Brand name. I shopped at a liquor store with my family for the first time and they said they had never seen such a happy face before 😅I'm actually having fun, what's up? 🤣.
I can't get enough of the sense of immorality and luxury of coming all the way to Kumamoto to drink sake from outside the prefecture.
A good sake that is both tasty and beautiful! I was quite drunk, but I could tell it was delicious.
When you get drunk, your appetite explodes, and even though it was late at night, we were drinking while eating yakisoba noodles😄.
Freedom💃.
Hello, Tsutsukitate 😃.
When I walk into a liquor store, I smile like a child walking into a toy store 🤗This is my true face! I might as well tell you that 😆.
Freedom‼️🥳
The sweetness of the melon flavor is a delicious taste that everyone will enjoy.
The spicy aftertaste will leave you wanting more sweetness and wanting to drink it again!
Banshu Issen Junmai Ginjo Aizan
Rating 4.4
Rice: 100% Aiyama (Shin Gin Seibai), Polishing ratio: 50%, Alcohol content: 14%.
The lovely strawberry-like fruit flavors of Aizan are brought out well, but with a minerality unique to the brewery, making it sharp, clear, and refreshing on the palate.
Drinking famous sake! The first Banshu Ikkan from Hyogo! Banshu Issen is the most popular sake brewery in Hyogo, a famous sake production area in Japan. This sake is made from Aizan, a popular sake rice also from Hyogo! By the way, what is Gravity System? It's a system that allows the sake to be
Full-bodied and transparent! Floral and 🍏 aroma!
This is delicious! Slightly carbonated with just the right amount of sweet and sourness! Tropical feeling escapes your nose when you drink it! Full-bodied and juicy! The sharpness is also strong!
This is a delicious sake, I said it twice because it is so important. I am curious about other Banshu Ikkyo!
I think this sake could be rated a little higher in both SAKETIMO and SAKENOWA, but the brewery does not seem to be very big, so I wonder if the distribution affects the number of ratings.

drinking at home
I had an image of Banshu Ikkyo as a dry and sharp sake from my impression of it, but when I bought it because of the light nigori, it was completely different.
It had a pear-like sweet aroma, a refreshing sweetness with just the right amount of acidity, and a light nigori (light nigori) taste. It was the perfect sake for summer.
Purchased at a convenience store in Ako.
It tastes more like a classic, but it is very well-balanced with a hint of sourness and sweetness.
I would like to drink it again.
Continued from yesterday😊
There were a good number of sake brands on the menu, but Banshu Issen was in the fridge in front of me!
Probably my first sake 🍶.
The label says it smells like LaFrance, and that's exactly what it is!
I honestly didn't feel the gasiness that much, but it was a very tasty sake, sweet and refreshing: ❤️
Ah, summer. ☀️
I can hear the drums of the Bon Odori dance ✨
And drinking summer sake🍶🥰.
Delightful and delicious ori dance 💕
Well balanced and easy to drink too 😋.
I feel like drinking nigori 🍶 today ❤️
Good evening, Mr. Muro 🌙
I got this last year! It's delicious 😍.
In the early evening, when it's still light out, we finish our bath early and relax with delicious drinks and snacks...it's one of the best parts of summer 🥳.
I was quiet all day today and ended up drinking from noon in the name of organizing the fridge 😓.
I've been wanting to drink Banshu Ikken since I went to Hyogo in June! When I saw the Aizan label, I had no choice but to drink it😍.
I bought it at Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station on my way back from eating dried ramen at the famous Aomori ramen store Tsugaru Niboshi Hirako-ya's reopening on Tokyo Station's ramen street ✨.
It has an aroma of rice and fresh fruity aroma, a gentle mouthfeel, and a slight fizzy gas. It finishes with a light sweet flavor and sharp acidity and bitterness. It has a light but slightly dry impression. It was a refreshing sake👍.
I think I will abstain from drinking tomorrow.
Good evening, ichiro18😄.
I want to visit Ramen Street 🤩I want to try Rokurinsha's Tsukemen 🍜I'm sure there's a line 😅I thought Banshu Issen's Aisan was sweet, but they have spicy too😆.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
Rokurinsha is crowded at Tokyo station, so Osaki and Ueno might be somewhat more relaxed. I waited 35 minutes at Hirako-ya ✨I thought Aizan was sweeter, but it has a spicy taste 🤔 I'll see how it goes after some time.
Good morning, ichiro18!
I've never been to Ramen Street, but I did a ramen tour on a trip to Tokyo when I was into ramen 😁.
I'll have to try Banshu Isshu Ikken sometime for a leisurely drink at home 😋.
No drinking 😅
Hi ma-ki-😃
I see you have been on a ramen tour in Tokyo👍There are so many different kinds of ramen, you must be addicted! I would love to try Kirimen in Osaka. The main store seems to have moved 😅I'm off the booze today 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃.
I know you have a sweet image of Aizan. I had an image of sweet and sour, but I'm not sure what Aizan tastes like because it depends on the brewery that makes it 🤣 please give it a try 🍶.
