Got it on a business trip to Tokyo!
Flattering and insanely delicious!
I could drink it all the time.
The acidity, sweetness, and sharpness are all well balanced and delicious!
Is it really worth the price? I'm so happy to be able to buy it at this price!

It's snowman season again this year!
It's getting colder ✨
Open the bottle right away😁.
First, turn the cap slowly so it doesn't blow out.
Good thing it didn't blow out like champagne 😅.
Now, let's enjoy it 😁.
Fresh and juicy, as if it's freshly active and freshly squeezed ☝️
Gentle sweetness and smooth mouthfeel✨
It's delicious 👍
I was happy to buy a bottle to drink for the first time and to support Noto.
I drank it thinking it was Sentori, but it was a bit different. It was too sour than I expected. After letting it sit for a few days, it finally reached the right level of saltiness.
I saw a notice that Sentori had gone all out for the sake making process. I wondered if they were going to try a difficult way of making sake. I am looking forward to drinking it.
I opened a new bottle of sake and now it's back to summer again, going back and forth between seasons 🎆.
I decided to go through with this one because I was buying too much, but after a while I saw it in the fridge at the liquor store...so I ended up buying this one.
The aroma is slightly citrusy and sour. It's Sentori.
When you sip it, you can feel a little bit of a sourness with a slight lemon-like bitterness, and it lingers on the side of your tongue.
It has a delicious flavor, but there is no sticking point, and you can drink it easily.
It is a delicious sake that can be drunk in large gulps due to its crisp acidity, or rolled around on the tongue to enjoy its gradual umami.

Lingering Fruity
Impression: apple-like, fruity.
Since I ordered this instead of dessert, there was a lot of liquor in the bottle, so there was a lot of bias. It's slightly carbonated and fruity. Very lactic acid, but I also feel citric acid.
The chestnut flavor of the Sentori we had last time is a bit off.
It is easy to drink on its own and tastes good. It is rather fruity to the point that one wonders how to pair it with food. It is so fruity that it makes you wonder how to pair it with food.
It was served cold.
Aroma: Melon? Apple? Refreshingly sour.
Taste: Green apple? Pear? Something like that.
I had it with baby shishamo smelt, dried puffer fish, bean sprouts and broccoli namul, tofu, and soup vermicelli.
Namul is x. Doesn't go well at all.
Tofu + squid kelp is good
Dried puffer fish and shishamo are passable.
This seems to go well with red meat.
I thought it would be good with red meat.
Thank you very much.
Drinking at home.
Today's drink is SENKYO HOPE.
It is a sake for the Noto Peninsula disaster relief.
It starts with a refreshing aroma, followed by the sweet and sour taste characteristic of Sengkyo, and then it finishes.
The sourness remains, but it was refreshing when paired with salted salmon.
It is a delicious drink. It is delicious.
Last weekend was a whirlwind at work, so I'm late in posting and replying to comments💦.
My apologies 🙇.
Have a good day.
Sake-no-wa Kansai Off-line meeting A Year-End Party 10
Next is the sake brought by Masha-san, which is linked to the Tochigi Off-line Meeting held on the same day 🍶.
SENKYO Classic SENKYO Kame-no-o
The sake had a clean rice aroma, a soft mouthfeel, and a mild aftertaste from the acidity and sharpness typical of SENKOKU.
The love for Tochigi was also demonstrated at the Kansai Off-line Meeting.
It's been a long time since I drank "Sentori" 😁.
Thank you, Masha 🙇.
Thank you for the food ✨
Good evening, Jive 😃.
Thanks for your work 😌It's a miracle that the event was held on the same day 🥹but I feel a deep connection when I see Tochigi sake 🍶 at the event 🤗oh, but I don't drink Osaka sake here 😅! But we don't drink Osaka sake here 😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I'll write about what happened in a future post, but it was a tough time 💦.
I hope to attend [Tochigi-kai] myself someday 😁.
Osaka sake is rare so I'll ship it with Fukui sake before next time 🤣.

The mouthfeel is sweet and fruity. The aftertaste is clean but a little astringent. Firm and refreshing? It's a strange feeling. Delicious.
I haven't done sparklers in years. I haven't done actual sparklers for years, but I think it's been six or seven years since I did sparklers with sake. I think I drank it at a time when SENKOUGOU had been stripped down and I didn't like its taste very much. I used to like it until a year before that.
The aroma is infused with an acidity that you can imagine the direction of the flavor from the aroma. I would like to know the name of this type of acidity today.
My first impression is "sourness"! And from there, it is refreshing like a spud. There is no imbalance caused by a weak umami, which is common in low-alcohol sakes with this kind of acidity! As the manager said, the umami taste swells up afterwards. No, it was more like "gushing out" than "expanding," and there was a surprising feeling of something that should not have been there!
This juwajuwa feeling is just like a sparkler, and it pops so beautifully...
Just as you can't enjoy the real pleasure of potpourri if you handle it roughly, you can't appreciate its goodness if you drink it gulping it down, or it is an even better sake if you taste its proper development in your mouth.
It is already winter, but I drank it on a day when the lingering summer heat was still intense. I will buy it again next year.
