Although it's not stated on the label, the rice polishing ratio is 65%, the sake level is -13, and the rice is Hatsushimo. It is very sour. It is very sour, and has a strong personality even among sake made with white koji. This sourness is like Niwa-shu or Bodai-gan. I heard that there was a limited edition of this sake, but I'm curious.

I drank it hot. I think dry sake tastes best when heated.

Slightly dry, but refreshing to drink. You can gobble it down.

Tochigi Prefectural Association 🍓 Women's Association 🤭😉🤗🐥① Thank you for giving Tsubu a detailed review: 🙏🏻 Please excuse the duplicate review: 🙇🏻‍♀️ short... The toast was Tsuji Zenbei, from the Tochigi sake drinking contest. It is a sake from Moka city, a neighbor of Utsunomiya. 💁🏻‍♀️ It has a soft mouthfeel and a nice, clear, high acidity sharpness...

PREMIUM S 1800ml Ingredients ... Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic), Brewer's alcohol Rice used ... 100% domestic rice Rice polishing ratio ... 68 Alcohol percentage ... 16 We had it bundled with Urasato Usu Nigori. I was attracted by the concept of cheap and tasty sake. If you try to get rid of the miscellaneous flavors, you lose the umami, and I wondered how it was possible to keep it. I felt that the umami was more pronounced on the second and third days than on the first day. I wonder if I expected a little too much, but I am curious to know how it is in the local market.

I've never had this sake before❗️. There are many delicious sake in Tochigi, so I'm looking forward to opening the bottle 😀. The aroma is subdued❗️ I'm not sure if this is the first time I've had it, but I'm sure it will be the last. When the temperature rises slightly, the sweetness and sourness are refined and the aftertaste disappears like water👍. The overall balance of the sake was good and it was very easy to drink😄.

It was hot... in May... in Saitama Prefecture too. There were some extremely hot days 🤣. On the last day of GW, I went to a shopping mall on the way home from a movie with my wife. I went to a shopping mall to do some shopping. We wandered around Cardi's. Sake. Ice sake?　I thought it would be good when it gets hotter. I tossed it in the back of the basket. I had it waiting in the freezer, but I didn't realize how quickly it would crisp up. It was hot, so I decided to finish it off with a dessert. Adult sherbet Naoshichi is a brand of citrus fruit from Kochi. It's good to have in the freezer from now on. ⭕️ The manufacturer is Kikusui Sake Brewery. No, it's from Kochi, so it's from here.

Okan's present sake series. Today I chose Kikusui. I didn't know there was a Kikusui in Tosa. I didn't know that😓I expected some sweetness since it is a junmai ginjo, but it was very dry. Sometimes it is nice to drink sake at room temperature. It's a single-batch bottle, so it's easy to open 😄.

I'm opening another bottle today😍. My first Miyazaki sake. Everyone says Miyazaki is hard to get, so I popped in 🤣 I ordered it with Jidori Koko 👍. It's a bit sweet, but not too sweet. It has a modern umami taste, similar to a brand I've had before like Tsushima-ya 😋 It's quite refreshing and the sharpness disappears quickly 😋 It seems to be the only brewery in Miyazaki that specializes in sake 😋 It's delicious - thanks for making sake 😂.

Japanese>English

★★★☆☆

Scoring: ☆☆☆☆ Miyazaki's only sake brewery specializing in sake, Chitoku Shuzo. It has a mild aroma with a good sweetness 😄. Refreshing drink with little lingering aftertaste. 😋 A lightly flavored umami type, or perhaps an 🏠. Not much umami or bitterness lingering on the tongue. Easy to drink but needs one more punch😅. It has an old fashioned taste but with a modern drinking style😋. Quite a tasty sake😋. Tonight I'm having seafood nabe with oysters, cod and scallops 🎵👍

Drinking continues at Don Chaya 🕺. We emptied the weird "Haneya", followed by another round 🍶. We chose our first brand that we could see in the cellar✨ First "Kame no Ou Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate" 🎉. Not much in the way of aroma, but a clean sweetness on the palate, with a pleasantly sharp and sweet [Kame-no-o] lingering finish! I found out later that they revived Kame-no-o and used this episode as a model for Natsuko's Sake, so in a sense, they are the pioneer of Kame-no-o 😁.

Another bottle was opened at the Kizuna Festival. Golden crystal that saw the light of day at Izakaya Shinkansen. Gold Crystal label expressed with a characteristic figure. It is one of my personal favorite labels. The top-tasting aroma has a very classical sake flavor. The mouthfeel has a light umami from a hint of sweetness. First contact is lighter than expected. The finish is again full of sake-like aftertaste, with a mild acidity and a strong bitterness. I had imagined it to be a more mellow and stand-alone sake, but it is considered to be a high performance food sake. During the festival, I served it with tempura and dried scallops that I bought and brought with me, and it was quite good! Thanks for the food!

Japanese>English

Tonight I'm having this one 🍶. I got this on my trip to Fukushima last month! I've been wanting to drink this since I saw it on Izakaya Shinkansen 🍶✨. They are the only sake brewery in Fukushima city😃. Mellow, refreshing, oicy❕. The aroma is slightly fluffy 💠. Slightly crisp but still mild 🌸🍶✨. This is a great one ❕. I'm glad I found you 😆. I also love the fukushima saké💗. It's very tasty.

First time to drink in Fukushima. So, this is a sake from Inawashiro, Fukushima. The moment you put it in your mouth, it is gorgeous. It is very pleasant. It has a sweet taste with a nice aftertaste. It is a sake for spring.

As the name "super dry" suggests, there is no sweetness at all. It has no peculiarity in the mouthfeel and can be swallowed easily.

I tried it again last night, and I'm trying it hot again. It doesn't have much of an aroma, but it has a little color to it, and when I drink it, I feel a rush in my throat and stomach that warms my body.

Japanese>English

Sannomaru Autumn hiyaoroshi from Kaito Otokoyama Shuzo. There is almost no standing aroma, but the hint of aroma is pear. It is a junmai sake that was fire-aged before storage and bottled fresh. It has a rich flavor, but it is still fresh, so it is not hard to drink and before you know it, you will be back for more.

Japanese>English

20231216 I have never heard of this wine before even though I live in Fukushima. It is neither sweet nor dry, but delicious! It's a great wine for those in the know. It was really delicious 🍶! Thank you very much for your kindness.

Yamatsuru is the closest sake brewery to my house, but I haven't had much of it lately. The last time I drank it I got the impression that it was peculiar and not really my cup of tea, but not this Junmai Daiginjo! Clear and fruity, good balance of flavors. It's also gorgeous😋. The price is reasonable for a Junmai Daiginjo, but I think it's worth it🧐 I can't underestimate local sake 😚

Japanese>English

Low-polished Junmai-shu from Yamatsuru, a local sake brewery in Ikoma, Nara. The name is Choyao. It was a gift, but it looks like it will cost a fortune💧. I heard it was brewed using a method described in a wooden letter from the Nara period. I wonder if it is true. Anyway, let's try it. Wow! It is indeed as rich and sweet as I had heard! The sake level is a whopping -40❗️ But the aftertaste is refreshing. Surprisingly easy to drink and delicious 😋. It's pretty good 👍I'll have to try this one too 😙. But I wonder if people in the Nara period really enjoyed this kind of sake 🤔.

Japanese>English

Bought it with another sake. Well, I haven't had Yamatsuru for a long time 🤔. I heard the brewery was featured on a local Kansai town show and the online store server went down 😳. I'm sure they were influenced by Yoi Don 🙀. Purchased at a sake shop near Yamato Saidaiji station. A 10-minute walk along a plotted road will get you there. The brands they carry are Nara Sake, Gonin Musume, Shunshin, Yonemune, Kurumazaka, Takayuu, Ikegame, Mai-bijin, Miyako-bijin, Amanoto, Manrei, Furozumi, Shirokiku, Asahikiku, Dharma Masamune, Kurumazaka, Tsunekigen, Mizuo, etc. Obuse Winery's wines are available, but there doesn't seem to be any sake? Is it a dry sake with a strong umami and extract flavor? When the temperature rises a little, a little sweetness comes out. The sharpness is impressive. It is not my favorite type of sake because it tastes mainly dry. There is a graininess and nuttiness. There is a peanut butter or soybean flour-like atmosphere. I wonder if you can taste the sweetness if you drink it at room temperature. It's been almost a week and it's become more sour.
