Sake meter value +8. Very robust and dry, but The ginjo aroma makes it elegant and cohesive. It can be enjoyed on its own or It is also perfect as an in-between-dinner drink.

Japanese>English

The first sip is unexpected. The taste is clean and refreshing. But when you take your time to taste it, you will realize that it is the Etsukaijin's strong and complex flavor that sells it. Etsukaijin is known for its powerful and complex flavors. You can taste the robust umami.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Etsukaijin. As the label clearly states. Sake degree +10 degrees, alcohol level is around 18 degrees. It has a thick and rich taste. It is well-balanced with a touch of sharpness. It is a brand that I would like to follow for a while. In order to conquer the whole country This is one of the bottles that I chose while hesitating in Kagawa prefecture which was empty. If I hadn't been working at Sake no Wa I'm sure I would never have drunk it. I really appreciate it.

Sake I got on a business trip to Hamamatsu. It has been a long time since I have been on a business trip, and it has been a long time since I have had a drink with people I have met, and I do not want the world to be a place where Corona gets in the way of meeting people. The name of this sake, "Dezejo," is an alias of Hamamatsu Castle, named after the successive lords of the castle who succeeded Ieyasu, many of whom rose to important positions in the Edo Shogunate. It is a traditional dry sake, that feeling of a hot throat. Hamamatsu is also the setting for a major TV drama, and Hamamatsu is hot and exciting.

2020/11/06 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A subdued but green apple-like aroma. The mouthfeel is refreshing and smooth. It is followed by a rich sweetness and flavor. Spiciness and acidity are rather subdued. It finishes off nicely with a slight bitterness. It was easier to drink than the ginjo I received before.

Japanese>English

Tonight, I'm posting my second bottle, this one I've been letting go for about 2 years to contrast with the first (Miyazumi Junmai Nigori Nama) 🍶. Actually, I bought it at the same time as the previous Junmai, but when I drank the Junmai, I took it for granted that this was a sake that should be aged for a long time 😪💤 and it has been in the bottle for a long time until now 😌. The aroma is grain-like, or Western liquor-like, or mature aroma, and the smell alone is enough to make you feel drunk. 😵‍💫 I think it's better to drink it at room temperature or warmed than chilled because the initial smell will disappear. Maybe I'll give it a try after tomorrow. It's good to enjoy long-aged sake sometimes. ☺️

Japanese>English

2020/09/20 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ In the mouth, it has a unique herbal aroma. It has a caramelized, slightly sweet taste. The flavor of the rice is clean and clear, and the taste of the rice comes across well. The aftertaste is light and crisp. It's a little crooked, but for some reason you can drink it.

I thought it might be limited to direct sales, but I was able to buy it at a liquor store. If you go down the shopping street near Okamachi Station, you will find an old shopping center with a supermarket in it. This is a community-based liquor store that is housed in it. They carry a wide variety of sake brands such as Yukitsuru, Asakayousei, Katanozakura, Kaygetsu, Sakura Masamune, Ootsuru, Shiraoi, Haginoduro, Shikizakura, and others. They seemed to be putting a lot of effort into craft beer and wine. The rice is Gohyakumangoku and Koshibuki. The rice is lightly cloudy to the point of being orikara. Basically, it is spicy, but the entrance is clean, and it tastes good with a firm umami and acidity in the latter half.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Takatsuki Hankyu. To be honest, they have a smaller selection of alcoholic beverages than Umeda Hankyu, but I think their lineup is more tasteful than Umeda. Umeda relies more on on-site sales. You can also buy Kuninonaga and Kiyotsuru at Takatsuki Hankyu. Grape and banana-like atmosphere. Not too sweet and spicy, but clear and beautiful. I wrote "clear," but considering it as a dry wine, I wonder if it is a mellow dry type. I said it was spicy, but there is a moderate amount of sweetness. It is a modest type of sake, but you can't go wrong with it.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ Bullet to Itoigawa to eat anglerfish hot pot. So, local sake. The first one is Yukitsuru. The aroma is like a strong sake, but it is easy to drink. It is not light and dry, but slightly sweet. I think it is good.

The best heated sake in Kanagawa Prefecture is probably Tanzawayama from Kawanishiya Sake Brewery. It is famous for its warmed sake. The specs are Reibo, Rimpo, Shuho, and so on. This is the middle one. This one is the middle one, not as robust as Reiho, but it is the best as a warmed sake. It is brewed in 2018, so it has been aged for about 7 years, but the Maillard reaction seems weak. It was brewed in 2018, so it has been aged for about 7 years, but the Maillard reaction seems weak.

Names of places I will never forget in my life. To name a few, the name of one of them. It's an old man's prerogative to bemoan the fact that personal impressions are being passed around, but he doesn't care to understand the background behind them. Yes, it's my opinion of alcohol. This is the taste at a restaurant I haven't seen in a while. It is a drink that seems to be a bad idea for people who don't drink sake, and it stirs the imagination of a drunken old man to think that he remembered it. The spiciness of the taste is a little bit sly, but the old-fashioned taste will not deceive you. If you read between the lines of the terrible writing, it is delicious. I don't want to say that it is a leap of faith, but it is an excellent drink to drink with a sense of everyday life and a sense of balance. Noshiro, for the generation that played a certain sport, it is special, and I feel old, and I was able to drink a delicious drink, today. Thank you for being here today.

Souvenirs of Saga 🤗Chapter 1 The top aroma is like red miso or buckwheat flower honey, the type I haven't tasted lately. 〰︎ As the temperature loosens up, it has a fruity bitter chocolate flavor with a strong acidity 😚 I thought I remembered smelling that aroma of BASE BREAD chocolate somewhere 😚 It seems to be a slightly classical rich dry type, but it had an interesting flavor........ I almost ate too much of it because the oily fried squid geso tasted strangely delicious 😅. Thanks for the food!

Saga, Saga Prefecture, Japan. Saga Brewery Co. Umenomado Special Junmai 3㌥ I tasted and bought this at the Sake Expo held at the Kintetsu Main Store in Abeno Harukas. I actually had it yesterday, but since it is a special junmai, I compared the two. We will drink it cold. The color is clear and almost colorless. The top aroma is mild and not very noticeable. The taste has a robust rice flavor, sweetness, and a nutty, chocolate-like complexity. It is rich and mellow, but compared to Saka, it has a more traditional country-style flavor. The aroma on the nose is bitter and chocolatey. By the second day, the chocolaty flavor has settled down, and a clear, mineral, full flavor emerges, making it easier to drink. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 15 to 16 degrees Celsius

Saga, Saga Prefecture, Japan. Saga Brewery Co. Saka Tokubetsu Junmai Nama Nama Zake. Purchased after tasting at the Sake Expo held at the Kintetsu Main Store in Abeno Harukas. Saka is a new brand, and is apparently better known as "Ume" (window plum). It is served cold. The color is clear with a slight yellowish tinge. The top aroma is mild, with a slight hint of alcohol. The mouthfeel is smooth with a slight flocculation, and it does not feel fresh to the extent that it should. On the palate, there is a little bit of juicy acidity, a little bit of tangy alcohol, and a nutty, full flavor that spreads. The aftertaste is a bit of a sharp spiciness, with a slight throat hit after swallowing. I bought it thinking it would be sweeter and more umami, but it was surprisingly dryer than I expected. I may have fallen for a bit of tasting magic. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice polishing ratio: 59 Alcohol content:16

Procured on a business trip. The aroma is a very fresh and unpasteurized sake. The mouthfeel is fruity and slightly sweet and light, with a classical drinking experience. The sharpness is thin and the sweetness lingers in the aftertaste. I like this lingering taste. ☆☆☆☆

Purchased at an antenna store in Iwate. Drank at room temperature, it was refreshing and had just the right amount of umami flavor, making it a great match for a mid-meal drink.

Clear and refreshing! (These are just the impressions of a sake beginner. (These are just my impressions as a sake beginner, please don't get me wrong. It's all right as long as you enjoy drinking it.) (The following is a reprint from the description on the Internet. It has a fresh aroma and a smooth smooth throat. It has a dry, light taste with excellent sharpness. It is recommended for first-time sake drinkers as it is easy to drink. Incidentally, the Sudoh family has been brewing sake since the end of the Heian Period (1141, the first year of the Eiji Period), and is the oldest brewery in Japan, now in its 55th generation. The brewery is located in Kasama City (formerly Tomobe Town) in the center of Ibaraki Prefecture.
