I bought it last year as a souvenir from Utsunomiya. It's been a while since I've had "out of the gate", but my taste buds have changed since the last time I had it, so I'm looking forward to it! When you open the bottle and pour it, it smells like citrus fruits and lychee. It is tasteless on the palate, but gradually the richness and mellowness of the rice comes out. The sweetness, spiciness, and astringency of the flavor are all present as soon as the lid is opened! Although it is a junmai ginjo, it has such a robust flavor that it may be served warm. The overtone is similar to that of "Shinkame" and gives the impression of a matured sake. The lingering aftertaste is well rounded as it quickly fades away. Overall, the shades of gray are exquisite, and the taste is quite interesting! In fact, the first sake I ever drank in my life was "Monkai Fude. I was actually the first person in my life to drink sake, and that drink at Kinugawa Onsen has led me to the present day.

A favorite liquor store introduced this sake as "sake that goes well with food". I drank it cold. It was very good, a little dry but also sweet and refreshing, much better than I expected! It was perfect for a 👀👏 dinner with rice 🍶 It seems to go with everything👌. It is available in supermarkets in Tochigi prefecture where we live 🙆🙆.

We attended a year-end party for parents of my second son's high school club! Although there are some rank restrictions, we enjoyed drinking all the sake we could drink 😆. The 4th glass! Koshino-Hachiho Junmai Sake This is also a brand new to me! It is a light and dry sake with the main flavor of rice. It is a typical food sake that does not interfere with the taste of the meal.

It is not sake, This was delicious. ‼️ It is a blend of Kasagi's yuzu juice and "Onnajojo" ginjo sake. It is so thick and sweet that you would think it was juice, but you don't feel much alcohol. It has a nice aroma and the bitterness of the yuzu makes it refreshing and easy to drink. Not bad!

I bought it at the brewery opening in March this year. The brewer told me that the flavor would be better if I let it sit for a while, so I held back until now. I have been holding back until now 😣. When I opened the bottle, I could taste the rich rice flavor and the umami was well developed. The aftertaste is clean and refreshing. I think it is the new sake rice from Gifu, drunken musubi. 👍😋😋😋😋😋

I've been curious about this brand for a while. I heard it is unfiltered. It is gorgeous and fruity. It is refreshing. I wonder if the spiciness gets stronger as the temperature rises. I heard that there is a draft version of this, so I would like to try it.

This will also be the first time I have dreamed of a hawk. The first aroma is a modest sweet aroma. In the mouth, it has a rich sweetness like ripe fruit and the umami of rice. It also has a sweet overtone like that of ripe fruit. It is similar to Chochin, but darker and tastier. I love Nagoya's sake.

It is said that the name "Hakkouda" comes from a Japanese poem, "Koma no sato (more horses than people)," which means "a clear spring is springing up in the village of Koma. I thought, "Isn't Hakkouda in Aomori City? But it seems that the western edge of Shichinohe Town, where the warehouse is located, is connected to Hakkouda. When I opened the bottle, I thought it was an adult lemonade. I thought it was adult lemonade, but the flavor was not sour. The spiciness was followed by bitterness, and then the sweetness came slowly. As the name suggests, there was a slight ooze, and the legginess was almost invisible.

The 6th go-around house is Saba in Komasen from Shichinohe town in Aomori: 🐟️ I guess the only people who would recognize Sakuta or Shichiriki no Kura would be locals or Aomori otaku🤓 lol. President Morita was here. The first aroma is slightly sweet. When you take a sip, it has a light sweetness and a moderate umami flavor, and it finishes with a refreshing crispness. It was the perfect sake for the pickled sesame mackerel that came with the entrée. It was delicious 🍶🐟️ They currently make 500 koku (they have 3,000 koku in their facilities) with 5 employees and 5 part-timers. When I told the president that I am a fan of Sakuta and Shichiriki, he laughed and said, "It was worth coming here today.

Rice used is unknown There is a bunch! It has a very "Yamahaku" feeling. The sense of maturity is also there. The taste is dry, but the sweetness is spreading on the tongue. The sharpness is not bad either. As the temperature rises, it becomes milder. This type of sake tastes better when it is not too cold.

Purchased at Yamane Sake Shop in Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture, during a trip to Wakayama Prefecture. I was attracted by the sake label (❗️) and bought it! Aroma of mineral and a hint of grape. When you put it in your mouth, there is a strong sourness and stimulation, followed slowly by a feeling of alcohol, and a little bitterness remains. The image was more like a heavy and drinkable sake, but it was like a dark, fruity, strong sake! I heard they use wild yeast collected from the soil of Kumano Kodo. I imagine it has an even more wild flavor! Even though it's dark, it's still relatively easy to drink, so I guess it's one of the more dangerous sake 😁.

Sake from a brewery famous for Ryujinmaru. It has been a very long time since Kirakuri. After Shikishima, tkmts-san was drinking Ryujinmaru, and I wanted to try something of Takagaki-san's sake, so I chose Kirakuri. This time it was an unfiltered raw Nakadori. It has a caramelized taste with sweetness and a sense of maturity. It's just a coincidence that there is a succession of sakes with a sense of maturity, such as Washin, Shikishima, and Kirakuri.

☀️ The coexistence of the thick flavor and the acidity that supports it in a hidden way is wonderful 🤩. The sweetness is there, but it is only hidden thanks to the slight carbonation 🫧🫥. The flavor is so thick that it's hard to believe it's from the same brewery as Ryujinmaru 😚. The occasional kerfuffle reminds me that it has 18% alcohol content😅.
