For a mellow aroma, Fruity sweetness. Compared to "Daishinshu", It has a clean aftertaste, It has a more refined taste.

Limited brand of Daishinshu: 🇯🇵 Buy it during your pilgrimage to the Holy Land✨. Only about 10 dealers carry this brand. You can find anything in the Holy Land........ 🤣. The ginjo aroma is green apple 🍏. It's been a long time since I've had a Daishinshu, but we share the same aroma 😤. I wonder if the sake rice is Hitogokochi or Miyamanishiki? (→ later I checked and it was Hitogochiki 😳) The balance of sweetness and umami, and then acidity to finish is perfect🤣.

I bought a small bottle of Kikusui Shuzo at a nearby convenience store 🥂. It was labeled as a ginjo-shu, but the aroma was subdued and it was a delicious regular sake with just the right amount of umami 😋.

<Chapter 6 Kaganoi in Niigata. This is my first time😊. I had never heard of Shiroto before. I felt a nostalgic, warm flavor 🎵. It's more than just a dry, light, umami taste, which is typical of Niigata! The aroma of rice with a strong umami flavor was wonderful👍✨.

Japanese>English

Purchased when Nemuchi and I stopped by Hankyu's Depa basement on the way back from traveling SAKE. I found the sake that Mr. Sakeran was drinking, so I bought it. I have bought a sake with the same label, but I think it tastes different, so maybe it was the Gohyakumangoku version? There is a trace of sweetness, but the basic taste is dry. It has a strong extract. It's not my favorite line of sake, but there is something about it that I can't dislike 🤔. This sake is not a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast, but I think it tastes similar to Daishichi that Mr. Sakeran praised so highly. On the second day, it tastes a little sweet like candy.

The 5th Sagajo Shoten Presents at the 5th Bishushu Raku Kushan Shokai 😃. First time to try Kaganoi ❗Black bottle with Kanji and horizontal characters ✨. The taste is light and dry, as is typical of Niigata sake! The freshness of the Ginjo Nama Sake is also pleasant 🎵.

Sometimes a cup of sake, a Niigata souvenir 🍶Classic taste, but with a surprisingly refreshing aftertaste 😋Thanks for the delicious taste!

Japanese>English

Ofuku Sake Brewery is located in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, near the entrance to the former Yamakoshi Village. This kind of I have often drunk it in a glass one-cup cup, but it is now in an aluminum can. There may be a difference in the mouthfeel of the container, but the taste is a classic, slightly umami-ish standard sake, but it feels smooth. The second image is a view of terraced rice paddies (tanaike) in the former Yamakoshi Village.

Japanese>English

Ofuku Masamune Junmai Daiginjo. On September 20, I participated in the Echigo Nagaoka Sake-no-Ten (Echigo Nagaoka Sake Festival) and stayed overnight in Nagaoka. The aroma is subdued, but when you put it in your mouth, it tastes sweet and sour like white grapes. Sweet and not too sweet...the exquisite sugar content keeps my sake cup full. Well, however, it was truly a sake-soaked time. I drank so much yesterday that I gave up tasting in the hotel's guest lounge. And today we drank again at the Yoshinogawa museum and at the Ponshu-kan in Echigo Yuzawa. That was fun.

This is my first time drinking Shikanaru. As a Harushika lover, I would like to try this sake at least once. It is much heavier than Harushika. It is not as fruity as Harushika, but I got the impression that it is thicker.

🐟 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 ‼️ 🍶.

Whale wave is next. I thought it was your first time in Gifu Prefecture and you got one 😊. The aroma is fresh and fruity by nature, with a slight hint of hineyness, perhaps because the bottle was opened 3 months later. Well-balanced fruity. Almost no acidity. A full-bodied flavor softly appears at the end of the bottle. Although it is a draft sake, it is quite soft and mild. Maybe soft water? 🤔 It is best served cold or chilled. It seems to be difficult to age.

A souvenir from a business trip to Hagi. It was a nice sake. I want to drink it again.

Japanese>English

At Hankyu Department Store I had a chance to drink all kinds of sake. The nigori was also delicious. They also gave us a 1:1 blend of nigori and junmai. It was also delicious. The one that caught my attention was the Junmai sake "P&A (Panda)", Junmai sake "P&A (Panda)". It's black and white, so I guess it's 🐼😁. It is said that lactic acid is not used in the yeast stocking but is substituted with citric acid produced from white and black malted rice and fermented slowly at low temperature. It is refreshing and light to drink. Pleasant acidity and a clean aftertaste, but it was a bit unusual.

It doesn't say, but the product name is Kokoromi. 295 bottles of this sake are limited, and from the name, I wonder if it is a test brew type sake. The concept of the Kokoromi saké has been around since last year, and it is said to be "unpolished luxury. This year's theme is "Shitakoya. It is a low-polished, low-alcohol sake. It is a rather gorgeous sake with a gentle taste that is not typical of Shirataka. The rice is Yamada-Nishiki from a special A district, which is luxurious for only 1,300 yen. It is probably only available in the Nishinomiya area, but if you see it, give it a try.

Japanese>English

Shirataka, founded in 1862, is especially famous as the official sake of Ise Jingu Shrine. (of course, I had never heard of it before 😅), which is especially famous as a sacred sake for Ise Jingu Shrine. We were very satisfied with the all-you-can-eat crab, sushi, sashimi, etc. We were very satisfied. The place is Kobe Minato Onsen lotus. The aroma was not too strong, but soft and fruity with no bitterness.

Japanese>English

Yo ❗️Manly ministry ️. Such a sake, Kanematsu Shirataka🦅. The harmony of Yamada Nishiki and Miyamizu was austere and deep, beautiful and strong... a good sake😊.
