The last drink in this corner.
Junmai Unfiltered Nama-zake
I realized again that this is the sake I like best.
It has a strong taste.
Plus it was dry.
Today's corner drinking was a great success.

The aroma is of fresh apple-like fruit with a hint of koji (malted rice).
The taste has a firm acidity and is refreshing for its alcohol content. It is fresh and has a rum-like nuance.

I found Igarashi after a long time and bought it. I have drunk a lot of Igarashi, but this yellow-green one is my favorite.
I thought the fruity flavor of this brewery was comparable to that of Hanabatake, a Saitama brewery, but the aftertaste was gruesome and the line was too thin.
Unbeknownst to me, other breweries are perfecting their craft...
The price is so cheap there, so I don't regret it.
I wish you the best: ‼️
I bought this 🍶 at the brewery festival.
I wasn't a fan of the alky 🍶, but still, to drink it on its own...
The first sip has a sweet taste, but then the indescribable bad taste follows 😢.
Just my opinion 🤔.

In the mouth, you can taste the umami and sourness. It has a smooth finish with a slight bitterness from the richness. It is always a delicious sake from a brewery near my house.
Tonight we will be serving yakiniku (barbeque) and Igarashi's summer sake will be paired with it.
It is a summer sake, but it is not too light and is full-bodied and delicious. It is a summer sake, but not too light, rich and tasty, with a tangy, spicy, dry finish that makes it very drinkable.
Igarashi is also all delicious.
They are sweet and aromatic. Eggy taste? Astringent taste? I think it's a bit astringent, but it's a bit dry.
Seems to go well with fish dishes.
The aroma seemed like cheap sake, and I wondered if it would be okay. I thought it would be okay, but when I drank it, I was surprised at how fruity it was.
It tasted exactly like a concentrated melon with the jiggly part around the seeds.
This is my first time to try Saitama sake, but it tastes better than I expected.
We opened a bottle at the office to celebrate a week's work.
Igarashi Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-shu Direct Kumi.
I found a very tasty sake, with a bitterness and sweetness that is piquant, oriented, and a little grapefruit-like!
Drink it with care.

It is a well-balanced sake with a mild mouthfeel, Omachi's characteristic bitterness, freshness and sharp acidity, a bit spicy but with a firm umami flavor.
I bought this 🍶 at the Igarashi Sake Brewery Festival 😊.
No smell, there was a warning that the lid may fly off when opening the bottle, but it opened without incident 😚.
It has a sweet flavor reminiscent of muscat, not too sweet, just right, no bitterness, easy to drink, delicious 🍶🥰.

Fruity aroma like banana and apple with slight dried fruit and oak aroma. The color is pale and cloudy. The carbonation is lighter than expected, and in the mouth it has a sweetness like plum wine and a crisp acidity. The impact of the carbonation is light, but the rich sweet and sour taste is to my liking.
I was satisfied with the purchase of two types of sake from Saitama Prefecture at Uemoten, which I had longed for.
