It has been a long time since I have had Nada sake. It is another label of Izumi Shuzo, famous for Senzuke. This is the first time I have had it.
It is an elegant dry sake, far from the image of Nada's sake as a man's sake.
The unfiltered unpasteurized sake is fresh and delicious.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic)
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Alcohol content 16
Sake #2 from Morinoya Sake Shop: Even though Senzuke is not available, if there is an Amber Izumi from the same brewery, and it is freshly pressed, it is human nature to want to try it.
It's not too floral, not explicitly modern, and hardly sweet, but it has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu with a slight modern flavor that is really delicious.
Hello, I'm a freelancer.
I see you have been steadily acquiring Icoma brand 😊.
If you can't get it by any means, there is a forbidden way to have it mail-ordered from DM 😚.
Hi Jay & Nobby ^^^^.
It seems that Senzuke is available at Saito Sake Shop if you are in Tochigi, but I don't see Amber Spring listed... I can understand if it's the other way around, but I wonder if that's possible?
Hello bouken-sensei!
I didn't have any Senzuke, but I was able to learn about the taste of Amber Spring, which I hadn't marked 😊I'll consider mail order if there is a brand that I really want!
It is a sister product of Izumi Shuzo, which brews my favorite "Senzuke"? Senzuke" which is my favorite sake.
It has a round aroma reminiscent of high quality rice, a mild sweetness and umami, and a nice shwashiness that is perfectly balanced.
It is really delicious.
My favorite degree: ★★★★
Recently, I often go to all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink izakaya (Japanese style pubs) in Osaka. Of course, it is work-related, but everywhere I go, without exception, the food and drinks are bad and unreasonably expensive. I couldn't stand it any longer, so the other day I went to the Asano Sake Shop by myself for an after-party. This was a hundred times more worthwhile.
On Friday, I stayed at home with my cat.
The aroma of this sake is reminiscent of a sweet sake. The taste is so good that when you put your mouth on it, it draws you in. ←This is important.
It has a strong taste with a straight line running through the middle. There are no unpleasant parts such as spiciness or harshness, and it is a mass of favorable flavors and aromas. It was consumed in 3 days.
I finished the bottle in three days, but the aroma did not fade much.
After the corona infection, it was the first time in a long time that I found a sake that made me think, "Oh, this is delicious! I was able to find a sake that made me think "Oh, it's delicious!
At a circle OBOG meeting. Rather firm, spicy taste that comes to the tongue and throat. I think it tasted refreshing. (I was too tired to remember the taste 💦)

I've had many different kinds of sake, but there was a time when I stopped looking for new ones and just drank the ones I liked.
Some of the breweries have stopped making sake or made it difficult to find, but one of the sake I used to drink a lot back then was this Hibokuizumi.
It's been five years since I last had this sake, but it reminded me of my own tastes and flavors.
