Special Junmai sake with 60% polished rice ratio I bought the jacket because of the impressive cartoonish, retro Showa-era "Oniotome" illustrations. The illustration was done by Minako Sonobe. It is made with "Homare-Fuji" sake rice developed in Shizuoka Prefecture. It has a calm aroma and an elegant, gentle taste with a well-balanced flavor, and it tastes great on the finish!

I went to Fukuroi Sake House Yamaya for Kaiun Tachiharu Asashimusubori, and I was able to buy it without reservation every year, but not this year 😅I screwed up 😅. Since I went there, I bought another Risshun Asashibori 😊for good luck👍. It's a good omen 📌720ml ¥1,980 Here's a quick rice! The aroma is fruity💕 The color is beautiful💕 The mouthfeel is clean and easy to drink 😊👍 You can also taste the sweetness of the rice 💕 I think it's probably dry. It is a delicious sake that does not interfere with your meal💕💕💕 I couldn't buy the Kaiun Tachiharu Asashibori so I bought it anyway, but the Hatsuwakatake was even better than I imagined👍 Next year I'll remember to pre-order the Kaiun Tachiharu Asashibori 😅.

A love that has lasted over two years has been fulfilled. I had a bottle in Ito izakaya two summers ago and enjoyed it so much that I was looking for a bottle to buy someday. I finally met the devil maiden in love😄. It is slightly effervescent and has a rather firm, juicy sweetness, but the mouthfeel is light and cuts through easily. The aroma is greenish, like unripe bananas🍌. Fresh and easy to drink, it goes well with oily fish 🐟.

This is the second of the three bottles I bought at the supermarket the other day. This is the first time I've had this brewery. I was wondering why there was only one bottle left at the store, but I was curious, and I was going to buy one bottle of Eikoh, but I picked it up. It's sweet but easy to drink ☺️.

The liquor store in Kuise went out of business and we couldn't buy 100 rice bales, so we went to Furuki Sake-ten near Panasta. The store was also promoting Gamba ⚽ The brands they carry are Kiyotsuru, Katano Sakura, Yamazaru, Sanzen, Daikoku Masamune, Yone Hyakutawara, Yosamusume, etc. Yosamusume is a new brand! It's not an easy place to get to because it's far from the station and up a steep hill 💦. According to the official SNS, it is unfiltered and the rice is Takananishiki. It has a mild sweetness and acidity with a dry astringency in the latter half. The sweetness and sourness are both fluffy and cute 😽. Overall, it is refreshing, but there is also a strong alcohol taste. Personally, I would like to see more sweetness and umami, but it was sweeter than I expected 🤔.

🐟 This is the first ayu we tasted at the ski lodge. It was refreshing and sweet, and was a nice palate cleanser when drunk in the middle of a meal. It's a shame that I could only drink one cup of it. The label is cute too 🐟

Japanese>English

🌥 It was chilly today 😢. I opened a "first sweetfish" which is cool to look at ✌️. The taste is just like the impression on the label❗️ It's fresh, smooth and easy to drink 🙂. A cool sweetness that is elegant. As for the acidity, as you continue to drink it... oh, maybe there is a little? It's just a little bit. The bitterness you feel after swallowing is also refreshing 😆 . The alcohol content is 16 degrees, but it's like drinking a low alcohol I feel like I'm drinking low alcohol 😉 . It's like drinking a low-alcohol drink....

Japanese>English

This is the first sweetfish recommended by the liquor store 🐟. I bought it by the square because they say it's sweet and tasty this year✨. I had my wife drink it and it was sweet and easy to drink ‼️ 🍶.

さく(*´´∀*)ますますますます It is a cup of sake today. I'm wondering which sake I'll open tomorrow.

Japanese>English

It is Shiraga Suzuro. It is a delicious sake with a sweet flavor and ends with a bitter taste. It is also the best in terms of cosmetics.

Japanese>English

I'm here today for my department's farewell party! We had a beer, 2 mega highballs, and 4 bottles of warm water, and when they were all nicely tinted, we threw in some sake 🍶. I drank it hot, and it had a nice, mild taste of rice with a smooth texture and a nice smooth taste down my throat! It is not too assertive, but in a good way, it is not like a hot sake, and it also promotes the sake and the meal 👍. I'm having so much fun I can't even think about writing a note about how I feel about it!

Diachiku Junmai Ukiyoe Alcohol percentage 15 Rice polishing ratio 59 This is the second izakaya in Kamisuwa. This is a Chino City sake. It is quite light and good. I would like to try some other sake. We drank a lot of sake in the Gokuraku set, but this is the second Izakaya? It's almost ready ^ ^.

I was looking for a property today, but there was a sake store nearby, so I bought some on the way home! I didn't buy it this time, but it was a good sake store that also had Kuroryu and Hakusan ✨. When I opened the bottle, it had a mild sweet aroma like banana. The palate is clean and tangy, light and dry, but as you taste it, the sweetness and a little bitterness come out and it tastes like vanilla or caramel pudding! It is a delicious and crisp taste. I have a feeling that I will go back if I can successfully sign a contract for a property. I wonder if I can go to Koyama Shoten from Yamanashi sometimes... and imagine the lifestyle I will have 🍶.

Japanese>English

I bought this after tasting it at the brewery that brews Diachiku in Chino City. It has no label on the front 😳it is a raw sake with alkaloids. Every December, locals come to buy this sake. It's been six months so it doesn't have a lot of pizzazz, but they say it's very stable. I first tried it cold. Alcohol content: 20%. The taste is pleasant, with a nettled rice flavor and a hint of sweetness. The spiciness that comes afterward is also nice. On the second day, we served it lukewarm. It was very tasty with a deep sweet flavor spreading through it. It makes you feel refreshed. It went well with the tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce) of wakasagi (smelt) and sea bream that we bought in Suwa. This sake is good with hot pot and 🍢, and I would like to drink it in winter.

Smells like pear with a hint of alcohol. Sweet! The sweetness reminds me of sugar. When swallowing, there is a fluffy flavor reminiscent of rice, and there is also a taste of fruit juice, but the sweetness stands out. There is a carbonation feeling. I want to drink it again tomorrow. It is sweet. The second day. Slightly carbonated. The second day is easier to drink.

Japanese>English

(* '☆')☆🍶🍶🍶🍶 We had our first Kawanakajima today 😀. The aroma is a little bit of rice flavor 😊The taste in the mouth is light and a little bit dry 😚The mild umami spreads slowly and then it cuts through quickly 🥰. It's a sake that seems to go well with all kinds of meals 🥳.

Japanese>English

( *^艸^)🍶🍶🍶🍶 It's been so long since I've had Kawanakajima Genmai that I don't know how many years it's been since I've had it 😋. The aroma is gentle yet elegant 😊The palate has a gentle rice flavor with a very clean and crisp finish 😚👍. It's really easy to drink and a delicious sake that goes well with food 🥳✨.

Rice used: Sasanishiki, Dewa Kirari, and Miyamanishiki grown in Yamagata Prefecture. I found this in a grab bag at a liquor store in my neighborhood, which has become a regular feature for me. It's not a great deal in terms of price, but I look forward to it because it contains brands that I don't usually buy. This one has the sourness that is typical of a traditional sake brewery, but when you drink it lightly, it is refreshing, and as you continue to drink it, the sweetness comes slowly. As the day goes by, the sweetness will increase even more. The sharpness is not that great, but it is not overpowering either, making it a good all-around sake. The price is less than 1,000 yen without tax, but I️ think it's quite competent.

Japanese>English

I like the way it penetrates through the nose. Dry and quite intense.

Japanese>English

Children's Day Celebration 🥂. My third son had Coke and I had this. I didn't know summer sake was already available! It's apple-like & a little banana at first, sweet and pretty, but the aftertaste is short and it goes away quickly. Beautiful women make me want to chase after them lol! I think I learned the secret of beauty from sake😂.

This was my first time to drink Kagoshima sake. I thought it might be too strong, but it was easy to enjoy.

Japanese>English

This is one of the bottles that was sold in a set with Tobiroki at Hasegawa sake shop, it was made in October 2020, so I guess they used Tobiroki to clear this stock 😅. I'm not a big fan of the Satsuma Masamune, but I'm not a big fan of the Tobiroki either. I was a bit worried because it's a raw stored sake, almost a year after production, but there were no quality issues 😄. Rather, I didn't feel the peculiarity that I felt when I drank Junmai Ginjo before, and it tastes better than that time 🌟. It has a slight sweetness, a strong alcohol feeling and a spiciness that comes down the throat, not very distinctive but enough for everyday drinking. Cold sake is the best 😚

Japanese>English

Warmed. The acidity is strong and wraps around the umami.
