Hitomebore. A store exclusive, I guess. As is typical of this sake brewery, the richness of the umami flavor is in harmony with the mild sweetness and extends smoothly.

Purchased at the brewery. 100% Omachi. Dry and dry with a firm pear taste. The rice flavor is at the back. 8

☀️ It has a light sweetness and a passing acidity 😚. The ginjo aroma passes through the nose. At the end, the flavor disappears and the aroma remains, and it's whiffy. ☺️

Japanese>English

Oh, this is an easy-drinking type. Omachi. I couldn't read it, so I asked for something that looks like a deer squealing, but it's Rokumei from Rokumeikan.

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 😋.

Wakayama Pref. Ito District. Hatsuzakura Sake Brewery Co. Hatsuzakura Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama Sake This is not "Hatsuzakura" from Yasui Shuzo Brewery in Shiga Prefecture, nor "Noto Hatsuzakura" from Sakurada Shuzo in Ishikawa Prefecture, but "Hatsuzakura" from Hatsuzakura Shuzo in Wakayama Prefecture. It is served cold. The color is clear and the yellow color is clearly visible. The top-tasting aroma is slightly caramelized first, followed by alcohol aroma. The mouthfeel is voluminous with a juicy acidity. The nose is filled with aromas of dried fruits and ripe fruits. The mouth is filled with a nutty flavor and a hint of sweetness, followed by a slightly strong acidity. After swallowing, a bitter taste remains on the tongue, followed by a slightly pungent aftertaste. It has a slightly classical flavor, but it has the volume of a draft sake and is very drinkable. On the second day after opening the bottle, the nuttiness subsides a bit, the acidity settles down, and a brown sugar-like richness emerges, making it extremely delicious. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Ingredient rice: 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Wakayama Prefecture Polishing ratio: 55% for Koji rice, 60% for Kake rice Alcohol Content: 18%.

A cup of rice with a strong flavor. Although it is sweet, it is not too strong and can be served with any meal.

Rice used is unknown Since this brewery does not have a sake brewing license, it is said that the brewery goes to Nagano Meisho to make sake. There is a pattern of having sake brewed on consignment, but this method is unusual. I imagined it would be a good old-fashioned sake from the label, but it was light and very easy to drink ❗️. It has just a hint of sweetness and is very refreshing with little alcohol. It was a seriously good sake❣️

Japanese>English

Brewed by Wadaryu Shuzo in Ueda, Nagano Wada Ryu Junmai Freshly Pressed Unpasteurized Sake This sake is badass 😂. I heard it was freshly made, Fresh and juicy. Rough and gassy, the gasiness alternately stimulates the upper and lower jaw alternately stimulating the upper and lower jaw ⚡⚡⚡. This is also exciting and awesome 😆. I found a great sake 😆.

Japanese>English

Wadaryu Brewery Wada Ryu Tosui Sweet and sour fruity aroma. The umami that I expected to drink comes to the fore. The sweetness and bitterness are accentuated and well balanced, making it easy to drink 🥰.

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 😁.

First encounter since the change from Fukuhime at the Hakata Station event. The first sniff was like a sacred wine But I didn't mind from the second sniff. The taste is more modern, but I could feel a little alcohol. Since it's a nokumi, it's very exciting to see how it will change from here.

For today's sake, I chose a Junmai Daiginjo from Kuchiman 😀. We compared the tasting sakes, one brought to room temperature for tasting and one kept chilled, and this one for tasting brought to room temperature might taste better than the chilled one 🤣. The chilled one is just too beautiful to swallow without anything stuck to it😅. The room temperature one spread the sweet and delicious flavor and filled my mouth with deliciousness😇

Japanese>English

I think it might be my favorite.

Hello. Thank you for drinking sake from my home town of Minamiaizu!
