SAKE Margarita
Basil Tomato
The aroma is very basil and less tomato-like than expected, and it seems to be a standard product.
We think it goes well with Western food.
This was reallyoooo good!
They said they brewed the grapes with the skins whole 🍇 The balance of sweetness and tartness was just too good 🤤.
I love grapes, so I'm considering buying some for myself.

This craft saké is brewed with rice and the Japanese herb kuromoji.
Kuromoji has a fresh, floral aroma.
The spicy taste was great, from the initial thickening to a slight spiciness after drinking.
This is my first craft saké in my life. I had been daring to stay away from it, but in order to have my own stance on it, I took the plunge and bought it 🍶 The liquor store told me that craft saké with hops is a good introduction to it, so I chose this one.
I was surprised by its purplish body! The taste was also unique, neither sake nor any other sake, but it is a good sake in that it is easy to drink. ☺️
<Details
Grapes in both aroma and appearance. It has the sense of a kyoho grape with a strong upper aroma and a little bit of cemedine smell mixed in.
Contrary to the mellow aroma, the taste is watery. Although there is no sense of the 14% alcohol content, it felt like a new genre of sake, neither sake nor any other type of sake.
This is also a craft saké
There's melon in it 🍈.
Some of them I didn't get a chance to photograph.
Some of the sakes are not shown here.
I think I drank about 4 cups 🌀
Light, sweet, fragrant sake
Light, fluffy, gentle hop aroma
Slightly sweet, with a pleasant hop astringency and acidity
Hop sake from Lagoon.
It has a different taste from the previous Fukushima Lagoon.
It tastes like a beer cocktail because it doesn't use flower yeast.
Craft saké made with muskmelon. The image is like a melon shake for adults.
It has the flavor and sweetness of melon soda.
I think it's a rare one, but I don't think I'll try it again. I usually drink melon soda.

Shozora Drunken Melon 2024
A slightly melon but dry melon.
Shozora HOP SAKE Hoppe
Very citrusy, not too hoppy.
I asked if the label had changed, since the three previous bottles I had had abstract labels, but this one seemed to be the same from the beginning.
Alcohol content: 15%.
Kame-no-o
Rice polishing ratio: 80
Except for the use of steamed rice for the mother of sake, the rest of the dobrok is made entirely from koji rice.
It has a very carbonated, squashy feeling.
Sake is easy to drink, with a fruity lychee-like flavor, but not much in the way of characteristics.
We are drinking at this hour.
