I had never seen this brand before, so I couldn't resist buying it. This is a sake brewery in Shunan City, Yamaguchi. There are about 1,400 sake breweries in Japan, so it's no wonder that there are breweries and brands that I don't know (there are more than 1,000 here). Even if I were to drink one brand every day for the rest of my life, it would take me almost 30 years (^_^;) It's simply impossible. This was an aside. The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma is distinctive. I wonder what it is, is it the aroma of rice? In total, the aroma is fluffy, the taste is tangy, and the sweetness is warm. I think it's delicious.

Surprised 👀️ by the spontaneous flying of the cork and the fruity taste of the 👀️. Easy to drink and delicious sake. Delicious 😋 hey.

It's a sweet and savory schwa 🍶. I think this is the second bottle on repeat here: ⁉️ It's fire-roasted, so it's great to take with you ✨. I opened a bottle of this excellent stuff at home 😆💦. It's Monday and I'm already tired fight❗️

The 2nd meeting of Kansai Off-line Meeting Year-End Party ✌️. Around this time, tables were filled with Hormone Yakisoba is delivered one after another 🤣. And Shirokuma sake 🐻❄️! It's a light cloudy sake. Aroma is fruity but slightly dry ❄️. Easy to drink even when chatting easy to drink and easy to drink 😋.

Japanese>English

Shirokuma Shirokuma - Winter light nigori - 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol: 16%. I opened a bottle of Hatsuzakura because my wife said it was too strong. It is soft and a little bit sweet. It is very different from the other two bottles that were made with a cloudy rice that looked like porridge. I would like to drink the animal series throughout the year 😊.

Japanese>English

Sweetness from the schwash. Slight melon that passes softly. Slightly cloudy color. The label is cute and as you can see, it is a sweet fan sake. Personally, I like rich, bomb-sweet, fruity sake, so I would like to have a little more, It is quite easy to drink. 680/glass (less than 100ml)

Drinking Iron from Okayama Vol. 2 Sakushu Musashi Paper Cup Sake A slightly peculiar sake, but it is also delicious 😋. Goes well with local snacks of cheese + oysters♪ This is the best part of the drinking iron....

Japanese>English

Serve cold. Super dry with a high alcohol content. It has an old sake-like flavor for advanced drinkers.

Japanese>English

Very dry. You can really feel the rice malt in this sake. It would definitely go well with a fatty steak. Personally, I felt it was sharp enough to be just right on the rocks.

It is Niigata but of the umami-kuchi type. Can be served warmed.

Japanese>English

I bought this on a trip to Niigata. It has a strong flavor, but it's refreshing and the sweetness doesn't linger.

Japanese>English

The aroma is subdued and calm, the acidity is a little strong from the first impression of rice flavor, and the second half is well-balanced and refreshing, and the aftertaste is also relatively refreshing.

Since I'm here, I wanted to keep a record of my past drinking, so please excuse the staggered posting: 🙇‍♂️

Japanese>English

Hyogo Prefecture Mizuho Kuromatsu Kenbishi Rice polishing ratio Alcohol 17.5 Junmai sake from Kenbishi. As a Junmai sake drinker, I really wanted to have a Junmai sake from Kenbishi, so I bought it online. The color is light amber. The matured flavor reminds me of chocolate aroma. It is a solid sake with a great posture.

After work, have a drink 🍶✨. Light and definitely the right 👍 for a mealtime drink!

A single-bottle of ginjo fresh-stored sake from a brewery in Higashinada (Narumi). Very pleasant sake quality. It's the season of hydrangea👍.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki from the Sato Plantation in Sosa City. It is said to be free of chemical fertilizers and synthetic agricultural chemicals. The sweetness is moderate. The acidity is citrusy with a crisp, bitter taste. Overall, it is a refreshing summer sake. It is well-balanced and can be drunk easily. The yeast seems to be different from last year's, and judging from the other reviews, it may be a different one. (It's also possible that my taste buds are wrong...) If that's the case, I look forward to it every year! This year's was my favorite type❣️.

I was curious why it says sweet on purpose😅. It's not like the popular fluffy fluty It's a solid sweet sake 👘. So, you know... It was great with light red bean paste sweets, cheese, teriyaki, etc 🎵. Recommended to drink at room temperature or lukewarm, but it was also possible to drink it a little chilled 👍✨.

Japanese>English

Rice (domestic), rice malted rice (domestic), 50% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume, 100% rice produced in Kyoto We received it as a souvenir from Kyoto! It was a really delicious sake with the refreshing taste of Junmai Daiginjo, but with enough umami.

Japanese>English

On the Shinkansen on the way back from a business trip to Kyoto. Mild ginjo aroma with a hint of alcohol. The taste is light, slightly aromatic and dry. When drinking it in a can, it is nice that the aroma comes in a flurry when the can is opened. It is also good to drink on the way home from a business trip to feel the end of the business trip.

Congratulations to Okinawa Shogaku for winning the championship. I am looking forward to next year's draft. Today we will have the Urare Shinigami: ☠️ This is the first Reaper at home. The font feeling is amazing, isn't it? The aroma is delicious vanilla and fruity grape. On the palate, there is deliciousness and sweet acidity, and the spiciness disappears after a while. Overall, it is well-balanced. It is delicious with sushi. It is the best match for oily sashimi. Delicious✨

Japanese>English

It has a subtle acidity in the aftertaste. A gentle sake that does not resemble its name at all.

Japanese>English

It's a straight-up sake! It has a strong flavor that is good! Also, I have actually visited the factory, and it's nice to see how much they care about handmade products 😋.

Junmai Ginjo 🍶 Henohenomoheji 😅 All of it is made from Yamada Nishiki 🌾 without agricultural chemicals in its own fields. Fairly yellow, strong acidity, matured. Daruma Masamune-like. It's a bit like Daruma Masamune. Surprisingly young freshness as you drink it ✨ matched with grilled wagyu beef ichibo 🐂👍 Umi and @Takadanobaba 20230516

It's thick! It's a straight flush grade spec. The color is also yellowish. It is heavy on the tongue and throat, but there is no sticky old sake-like feeling!

It was so hot today😅. "It's my first time drinking Kamikame no Nigori Sake! I chilled it and opened the bottle! Turn it a little, push it, and close it right away! Repeat for about 10 minutes! I like that process a lot, it's fun😌. I love the way it mixes together✨. 11 degrees alcohol! Let's take a sip! It's "light" on the palate. It's "light" on the palate, and you can drink a lot of it, very good laugh! In the mouth, there's a slight carbonation, and the flavor spreads! Then it's sharp! No! It's delicious! It was also perfect as a food sake 💁🏼️♂!

Japanese>English

No prior knowledge, small bottle to take home. There was a note on the bottle warning when opening it, but there has never been a case where the bottle has been opened and spilled. Well, this time too, I completely underestimated it because it was a small bottle... When you twist the cork, the bottle rises at once and you have to tighten the cork in a hurry. After repeating this several times, the bottle was finally opened. It has a sweet aroma characteristic of cloudy sake, and a white cloudy sparkling taste, but when you drink it, you will find that the sweetness is very moderate. It has a dry mouthfeel, and I think it is suitable as a food sake. The acidity, which I personally dislike, does not bother me, and it is a refreshing nigori sake.
