This brand impressed me at the end of May this year. It was an unfiltered, raw, undiluted summer sake. This time, I will have a dry one. Ooooooooo! The aroma is vinegar-like. It smells like vinegar. When you drink it, the atmosphere reminds you of that excitement. The summer sake was thick, but this one is super light. It is light and fruity. It is delicious! Mr. Okada, the brewer, was at the store. I immediately asked him for his autograph! He was very shy and said, "This is the first time for me to write something like this. I am so happy! I would love to visit the warehouse. I have one more thing on my to-do list to look forward to! Thank you, President Okada!

It will be a gift🙏. This is a special junmai from Morinori brewed by Okada Honke in Kakogawa, Hyogo Prefecture. It was recommended to me by someone who knows a lot about Japanese sake. It is fresh and has a refreshing taste with a richness that is typical of Gohyakumangoku and can be enjoyed while savoring the sake. ☺️

London Sake Challenge 2019 Winner of the highest "Platinum Award" in the Junmai Sake category A "mellow umakuchi" sake with a soft mouthfeel and mellow rice flavor. It is a perfect food sake to enjoy with meat, cheese, and dishes with sauce.

Shiga Local Sake Festival in Otsu 2025④. Sato Shuzo and Kohama booth. This time, all the sake were made with Yamadanishiki. ◉Kohama Junmai Ginjo-shu Unfiltered Nama-shu Nama-shu Fruity aroma. The aroma is fruity, with a slightly bitter chocolate flavor and a rich, mellow flavor. This was my favorite type of sake. Kohama Tokubetsu Junmai Sake A standard sake. It is often served at restaurants that serve funazushi. A good food sake. Junmai Ginjo Namazu Jiyu Read as "ume naru jiyu" (literally, "while being born, it is free"). Nama-zake. I think they said they use a yeast that produces high malic acid. Pleasant acidity with a fruity taste. They also make ume (plum) sake and a blue colored sake that is a ginjo-shu.

I slipped into a restaurant called Kanda Ogawamachi, Ojika-cho, Goto Islands, Nagasaki Prefecture, for my second cup. Since we had limited time, we went for the Junmai Ginjo. The first one was refreshing. The first one was refreshing, whereas this one was gorgeous. In any case, it has no peculiarities and goes perfectly with the seafood of the Goto Islands. Anyway, the sashimi and mackerel stick sushi from Hiramasa were delicious.

#Shirokanedai# We were invited to a party of a certain organization in Tokyo 😁. There were many guests who were giving speeches, It took a long time to get to the toast😅. This is the sake that was served for the toast. I heard that this sake is related to the organizer. I couldn't wait to try a sip 😆. The richness and flavor is very clear. I ended up opening 2 glasses of wine before the toast 😅😅.

I bought it because I wanted to drink it for the first time in a long time! This is the third time I've had it, so I'll spare you my impressions. It has a light, light flavor with a yogurt or yoghurt-like feel, with hints of mushrooms and maltiness. It's perfect with hamburgers and a reset ✨. I found a regular "Kunimori Nigori Shu" on sale, so maybe I'll buy it next time!

Japanese>English

I bought it again because I drank it before and enjoyed the yogurina feel! I just drank it a month ago so I will spare you my impressions 🫡. It is also interesting to note that the lighter the stirring is, the more lactic acid drink-like it becomes as it goes to the bottom, and the more it feels like yoghurina at the beginning and calpis or yakult at the end!

The sake I chose when I returned home for Obon was Gold Junmai Daiginjo by Popular Sake Brewery. This sake brewery is very particular about the traditional method of making sake, and everything is made in wooden vats. It is a junmai daiginjo that is polished to 50%, so there is no cloying taste at all ✨It starts with an elegant sweetness and rice flavor, with the aroma of the wooden vat and a slight bitterness at the end. Delicious 😊.

Japanese>English

Clean and easy to drink. It has a lychee-like aroma and a banana-like sweetness. It's dry on the throat, but you can feel the sourness and sweetness. I personally like it better when the temperature rises a little and it's closer to room temperature.

At home. This is my favorite Sei Masamune. There is no particular aroma, and it has a smooth mouthfeel with a fruity and sweet taste in the nose, followed by a little sourness, and finally a bitter taste that finishes it off nicely. Compared to the previous Seimasamune, the sweetness is more moderate.

Japanese>English

At home. Purchased at the usual liquor store. I want to drink it regularly. The owner said, "It tastes good both chilled and heated. I was looking forward to drinking it. First, we had it chilled. The aroma is gorgeous with a hint of alcohol. It has the characteristic sweetness and umami of Seimasa's sake. Oh, it's so good! Now that the heat is better, I would like to try heating it up next.

Japanese>English

At home. I drank Hanamasa and Seimasamune. However, I was already very drunk by the time I had the Seishomune. Both are gorgeous and delicious sake, and they gave me a happy time.

This Sake has a full mouth feel with a strong flavor of cedar and apple. It is also dry with a lingering finish. This is a great with strong flavored foods like kakuni.

marriageable age (esp. of a woman) Slight aroma, dark color. Soft attack. The taste is round and dry. It goes in smoothly and has a good sharpness.

Mellow mouthfeel, gentle sweetness and good body. Delicious. It was served cold, but it would also be delicious warmed.

A sake brewery in Shiwa-machi, Shiwa-gun, Iwate Prefecture, the birthplace of the Nanbu Touji clan. The oldest sake brewery in Iwate, Azumamine Sake Brewery. Founded in 1684, which means... Edo period (@_@) I admire the continuous efforts and wisdom of the people who have kept this taste and this brewery alive since time immemorial. That is why we can enjoy this taste now. Thank you ( ´ oo ` ` ) The taste is sweet and refreshing without being boring to drink. Excellent as a food sake.

Japanese>English

At the Iwate Sake Banquet I enjoyed the first one so much that I drank the other one as well. I preferred the other one because it was not as sweet, but the one I preferred was not on sale, so I bought this one and left.

At the Iwate Sake Banquet I don't remember the name of the sake, but it was very tasty, shwashy and sweet!

#Funabori# SENDAI-YA My favorite liquor store in my neighborhood is not open because of GW 😭. It's not open 😭. The first time I visited this liquor store, wine is the mainstream. The first time I visited the liquor store, wine was the mainstream and there was no sake. The only one I bought was a little sweet, but it was delicious. It's a little sweet, but it's delicious. It was 880 yen for a four-pack... It was served with dinner, and it was indeed sweet, but not too much... and it had a good flavor... It was very cosy 😆😆. It was easy to drink, and it was empty in no time😅😅.

I bought some fire-activated nigori at the co-op because it looked interesting... so much moromi... ！！！！！ I looked it up and found that there is also active nigoromi... Sorry I only have a picture of it after mixing! I know the nigori in Niidashizenshuu and the nigori in this season's Sasasamune have a lot of moromi, but this is probably even better than that! The impact is amazing! Isn't it about 70-80% of the bottle? What is this? When you drink it... it's thick! As you can see, the rice flavor is coming forward. There is a slight alcohol taste, but it also has a banana smoothie-like flavor that is not too classic, making it easy to drink. It is thick, but if you cool it down and drink it, it is surprisingly easy to drink. In any case, it is quite strong, so it would be good with Chinese dishes with strong flavors. It would be better with Chinese food that has a strong flavor, such as stewed eggplant, grilled fish, or simmered dishes, as the richness of the sake would drown it out. I think I'll try it with Bean-curd soup with Bean-curd soup with Bean-curd sauce. LOL! Thankfully, it is fire-roasted, so you can drink it slowly and leisurely over several days. It doesn't lose its flavor and is very useful when the food has a strong taste.
