Junmai Ginjo light nigori.
As the label says, it has a tropical sweetness and acidity reminiscent of pineapple and passion fruit.
It also has a slight bitterness.
You may add a lot of ice.
In the sweltering heat, can a label make you feel like you're at a resort?
Can you enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of a resort in the sweltering heat? Or a tropical experience with a hint of refreshing sweetness? Which is it?
Next, a nigori drinking comparison 😊.
First, Wakamusume.
It didn't take much time to open the bottle, and the gasiness was strong, with a characteristic sweetness and bitterness.
It is a bit sticky in the aftertaste.

Good evening, Mr. Studying 😃.
I see that the Bunbun you drank is light nigori! I think I prefer the light nigori for wakamusume, but it still has a strong sweetness, which is a concern in summer 🤔.
Good morning, ichiro18 😃Yes, I also thought there was a clear sake after reading ichiro18's review 😆 I was concerned about the sticky feeling, but it was easy to drink with a strong gassy taste.
I missed the timing and gave up,
I was told by Takashi that a liquor store I frequent had started carrying it, so I went there and found it 😍Thank you 😊.
I used to go to Totsuka, Asakusabashi, and Tama for an hour to buy Wakamusume, so I'm so happy to be able to buy it nearby 🎉.
I'm so glad to be able to buy it near me 🎉 Wakamusume has a pattern of producing both Nama-shu and Usunigori (light nigori) from the same brand, but this time it's Nama-shu. (The newly released Tsukigusa seems to be both nama-shu and hi-ire.)
Aroma was fruity, banana-like and lactic 🤔.
Soft mouthfeel, with a chili fizziness. It has a clean mouthfeel with juicy sweet flavor and a bit of sharp acidity. There is a bit of bitterness in the aftertaste as well, and it doesn't leave a sweet taste 😍.
Postscript
Not that it matters, but I was at Eel Mountain for lunch! It was Kansai style, direct flame broiled, crispy and great ✨.
Good evening, ichiro18!
It's lovely 😍💕wakamusume!
Tropical 🏝️ sweet delicious and juicy 🤩I'd like to try it ❣️ but my neighborhood doesn't carry it... 💦I may have to meet you on a local expedition... 🥺.
Good evening, ichiro18 😊.
I see you drank 😋.
I also travel to Yamaguchi on business, but it doesn't seem to be available anywhere in Yamaguchi. I'm really glad that a liquor store near me started carrying it 🥰.
Good evening, ichiro18 🌝.
I'm jealous you have a store near you where you can buy it 😭.
Cute label and definitely delicious ✨Wakamusume, I think it's a sake that should be appreciated more: ☺️
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
I can't tell from the picture, but the label is sparkling like lame ✨.
It seems that the amount of shipping is small to begin with, and it's hard to find even for Mr. Takashi in Yamaguchi 😅.
Good evening, Mr. Takashi 😃.
Yes, I finally got it ✨I had to look up the information of the distributor, but it was very hard until now because Wakamusume does not have it 😅It was dark under the lighthouse, but I am glad I was able to buy it 🍶.
Good evening, Chesta 😃.
I'm so thankful that I found out about the deliciousness of wakamusume and even found out where I can buy it thanks to the information from Sake no Wa 😍It's a delicious taste that really deserves more recognition ✨I'll spread the word 😁.
Good evening, ichiro18🌛.
This "Wakamusume" loose label is as drunk as the "Hagi no Tsuru" cat label 🥰.
[As an "eel" lover myself, I could probably open a four-pack of it with this picture 🤣.
Hi Jive, good evening 😃.
The cat label is really sweet ✨I want to try this sake because I haven't had it yet 😍The eel was great ✨What, you're going to empty a four-pack just from a picture? ⁉️ Please make the most of it 🤣🤣!
Good evening, ichiro18!
It's nice to be able to buy the sake you want to drink nearby 🎵
Quicksilver Sake no Wawa information: ⤴️
I had a hard time deciding on this one, but it looks refreshingly delicious - and the eel looks delicious too 🤤.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃.
It's really nice to be able to buy it near you 😍Sake no Wa's information is enriching my drinking life 👍Thank you ✨It's hard because there are so many drinks I want to drink and I have to give up some 🍶.
Good evening, Shikatarou 😃.
Thanks to you, I was able to get it and had it... I'm glad that there is now a liquor store in my neighborhood where I can buy it, Wakamusume-san. I guess SAKE Street is the one with the most variety👍.
Good evening ichiro18!
I remember drinking the light nigori version of wakamusume's Bunbun last year 😚 It was delicious, tropical and refreshing 😆 I hope they will carry more near you 👍✨.
Good evening, Kotaro 😃.
I see you drank Bumbun last year! And the light nigori 👍Wakamusume is my favorite light nigori ✨I've read your past logs and Kotarou's review looks delicious 😃.
Hello ichiro18 🐦.
That's nice, buzzing! Feels like summer 🏝️ and I'm glad you can now buy it nearby 😊.
The eel! The eel looks so good 😻I want to eat it plump as it is crispy here 😁.
Hi Pon-chan 😃
Thank you for the convenience 👍I'm used to steaming eels in Kanto, so crispy was fresh and tasty 😍but I also recognized the tender plumpness of Kanto 🤔.
Cute summery label.
I remember drinking it last year and enjoying it.
Pineapple sweetness and sourness
Like a pineapple candy
It has a light aftertaste that doesn't linger.
It is still delicious and easy to drink.
It's hot, hot days, but for a refreshing change, here it is. Wakamusume's Moeki. It has a nice cool, slightly sparkling piquancy. The rice is Yatan-nishiki and it has a gentle sweetness.
Wakamusume Tsukigusa
100% Hachitan-Nishiki
Alcohol content 15.5
Polishing ratio 60
Price: 2057 yen including tax
Special Junmai because the rice polishing ratio is less than 60%.
It has a tight fit and a slight effervescence.
It is slightly sweet, but the sweetness of Hachitan-Nishiki gives it a refreshing aftertaste!
Wakamusume today.
Tropical Boom Boom.
Shintani Shuzo is brewed by a husband and wife team. This is a summer sake from the Bunbun series, a series in which they are taking on new challenges.
First of all, the label is interesting.
It is a sweet and tasty sake, easy to drink like a juice, and great for barbecues and other gatherings. It's hard to say it out loud, but it's the kind of sake I like to drink with girls. It is not a sake for an old man to drink alone.
Anyone else out there...
Good evening, Shikatarou 😀
I bought Tropical Boom Boom, although I haven't had it yet either. I'm looking forward to drinking it with the girls 🍶I'm excited 😁Wakamusume is my favorite ✨.
Half a year? I've been going to Yamaguchi on business for a while, so I thought I'd get around to it.
I go to Yamaguchi on business trips often, so I thought I'd get it sooner or later even if I didn't buy it in my neighborhood, but even in Yamaguchi you don't see that much of it (maybe they don't produce enough?).
This time, I went to a nearby store and brought home a summery one!
Wakamusume Tropical BunBun
Be careful not to open the bottle! I was warned to be careful when opening the bottle, but it was only a light sip 😘! I only had to do a little 😘.
Fresh! I can feel the sweetness.
Tropical juice sensation? Not quite 🤣.
A little peculiar sweetness?
I feel a little uncomfortable with the sweetness,?
And on the third day after opening it, it seems to have mellowed and tasted better. This one tastes better 😋.
This could be good 🥳.
My wife said, "Oh my, that's a cute label, what's up?"
What's wrong? I'm not sure if I designed it myself or not 😰,
Well, "it doesn't suit me" 😆.
I don't disagree with that😅.
Good morning, Takashi!
Your exchange with your wife in the last part made me laugh 😁✨✨.
I was worried about this one by Wakamusume-san the other day and decided against it, so I'd like to drink it sometime 🤗!
Good morning, ma-ki-San 😊.
My wife doesn't drink Sake, so I have to buy a packet of it as a souvenir. So you might have thought I bought a jackpot too 🤣 but in this hot weather, tropicals are also intriguing 🏝️
Good morning, ichiro18 😊.
The store in Tressa Yokohama started selling it a little while ago. (I've not been to the main store recently, but I'm sure it's within ichiro18's radius. There is Wakamusume 🥰.
Thank you very much. I have never been to the Tressa store, and I often go to the one in Shinyoshida since it is close by, but I haven't been there recently 😅I will take a look.
Good evening ichiro18😊.
That's great! You are a man of action 😆 I didn't know you were going as soon as you did!
And you even went to Tressa 🥳.
But you might have a near miss somewhere 🤣I go to Takekuma once or twice a month too!
Takashi.
I may be doing that 👍Takekuma also goes to Motosumiyoshi quite often. If you have a car, Kawaramachi is convenient because there is a parking lot.
Hi Pon!
I'm lucky to have a store near my neighborhood that sells wakamusume 😘But there's a pattern that if it's in the neighborhood, you can buy it anytime you want, and you'll be caught off guard and go away for a long time 🤣.
I was curious about "Wakamusume🍶" who Pon-chan said she was into before ❣️
D Paisen sent me this 🥹✨.
And it's raw sake🍶‼️
Fresh✨ and gently sweet 🤤.
I can drink it in gulps💕.
I want to drink the other ones too 😫!
As Tsubu said, Yamaguchi's sake 🍶 is a delicious problem 🤔 (maybe he doesn't see it as a problem...)
Indeed, Yamaguchi Prefecture's sake is delicious 😋.
Good morning, Muro-san!
I also got Moegi by Wakamusume-san, although it is nigori, but I got it from Pon-chan's information, and it is delicious 😋.
It's delicious 😋! Sake from Yamaguchi Prefecture is also really good 🤗.
Congratulations on your first Wakamusume, Muro 🎉!
It's so easy to drink 😆 It's great that you're sending us fresh sake 👍✨It's not often we get to see it 💦.
I'm sure there's no shortage of Yamaguchi sake 😉.
Good evening, Ponchan!
Thank you so much 😊I was curious about Ponchan's review and Paisen sent it to me and now it's great 😆✨Hooray for Sake no Wa 🙌
D Isn't Paisen awesome ‼️
When you open the door, you will hear a nice sound!
It is exciting as always!
Sake temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius.
There is a faint aroma of raichi.
Then, a soft sweet aroma from the aroma of banana.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a little chilli and the soft sweetness will spread and the acidity will gradually linger.
I love the softness of Shintani-san!
