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.

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.

Purchased at Okadaya, Nagoya Rice used is Yume-Ginko from Nagoya This sake has a slightly sweet and robust flavor. It is not so fresh, but has a mildly sharp and clean aftertaste. Overall, it has a calmness that makes it a versatile all-around food sake. This is a good sake for ministry.

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.

Rice used is something from Iwate Prefecture and germinated brown rice from Shiwa-machi glutinous rice Classified under the Sake Tax Law as "Other Brewed Sake It is a so-called craft saké, but it is no different from ordinary sake. The fruity sweetness spreads quickly, and the umami is also conveyed clearly. The citrusy bitterness tightens up the whole experience. The lingering aftertaste seems to be slowly fading away. It is not flashy, but it is good for a leisurely sipping. However, 3,000 yen for a four-pack is a bit expensive!

Japanese>English

Smells like syrup taste of lactic acidity grape acidity white wine type Frankly, it tastes like the lactic acid in the germinated brown rice is out of control. Tastes like a stopper if you inevitably drink a lot of it. (It was a corner shot, so it might have been oxidized)

Japanese>English

I've been curious about Re:vive Kuga from Heiroku Brewery, but I've never had it before. I drank "layer" but this is my first time to try "Re:vive". I wanted to make sake, but I don't have a sake license, so I mixed germinated brown rice with sake and made it as a craft sake. (Brown rice is considered rice and is sake, germinated brown rice is craft sake, I didn't know that 🧐) Gentle sweetness, moderate acidity. Fresh and delicious 😋. Not schwashy, but fresh? Beautiful and tasty, but maybe it's my imagination, a bit subtly different from so called sake? (Can't describe it 🤣) Well, it's good because it tastes good 😆. It's the kind of thing that goes down smoothly.

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.

Japanese>English

If you drink Ryujinmaru I want to compare the Takagaki sake brewery ⁉️ So I compared with Kirari 😆. The aroma of this one is also very robust 😳 This one is a little more refreshing. The mouthfeel is quite heavy for a recent sake, but lighter than the Ryujinmaru we drank earlier. The sharpness also has a rummy feel to it and is more refreshing than the Ryujinmaru, but I think this one has more of a cloying aftertaste. I think so. When compared, I think they are lighter, but they are both quite heavy sakes 🍶. Along with the drinking comparison, I also compared Rasho from Ushiku and Yamaokaya from Ushiku. Well, there is no comparison because they have completely different tastes 🤣. Both are addictive and delicious 🍜.

Japanese>English

Another brand of Takagaki Shuzo, which brews Ryujinmaru Mild ginjo aroma with a hint of brown sugar and caramel behind the graininess. Soft and smooth on the palate, with a voluptuous sweetness that spreads and tightens with a refreshing acidity. When warmed to human body temperature, the acidity becomes more pronounced and the flavor sharper. The robust taste makes it a good match for stewed dishes.

Saitama Pref. Iruma-gun. Asahara Sake Brewery Co. Biwa no Sasanami Junmai Namaisake. I went to buy the pre-sake I wanted, and since that was the only sake I was sorry to buy, I bought Saitama sake, which I rarely have a chance to drink. When I was trying to decide which one to buy, the owner laughed at me at the cash register, wondering why I was looking at the back label so much. I told him I don't like anything too spicy, and we chatted for a bit. I had it cold. When we poured it into the glass, there were quite fine microbubbles adhering to it. It is clear with a faint yellow tinge. The top aroma is slightly malty and slightly apple-like. The mouthfeel is juicy, full, and smooth. The palate has a slight sweetness from the rice on the tongue and a mild acidity that flows gently through the mouth. The juiciness is followed by a refreshing taste. It has a malted rice aroma that spreads when it passes through the nose. The aftertaste is a bitter and bitter taste with a slight spiciness that lingers for a short time. The sake has a sharp taste after passing the throat. Rice polishing ratio: 70%. Alcohol content: 15%. Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic) Sake degree: +4 Amino acidity: 1.2 Acidity: 2.0

Brewery Limited ✨️ brought in by a regular customer GOTCHISO-SAMATSU I just had Yaezakura the other day, so it was easy to compare: ☺️ It's a bit peculiar after all! But I'm lucky🍀🍀 to be able to drink this rare limited edition sake.

Japanese>English

Next was the Ryusen Yaezakura Junmai Sake Takumi no Omachi. Compared to the Yamada-Nishiki we drank earlier, the taste is a little more robust. The aroma is almost imperceptible, but the sweetness and umami of the flavor is stronger than that of Yamadanishiki. I was full of anticipation, wondering what this sake, which won first place in the Governor's Award, would taste like! I went to the brewery and asked them about it, and they told me that they will start selling it next week. I am looking forward to it! It was delicious! (^o^) P.S. This year, my hibiscus has many flower buds. Last year, they hardly bloomed at all... (^_^; )

Junmai Nama Sake 🍶 Shiboritate✨ Various flavors. Stronger freshly squeezed. Alcohol is also strong. It is assertive throughout. The sliced kipper makes it mild 👍. Fried oyster makes it more charming.
