Gorgeous ginjo aroma. It has a clean, light and beautiful sweetness. Although it is jungin, the taste is so beautiful that you would think it is daiginjo. Is it because it is made by hanging it in a bag? It is delicious, but maybe too elegant. It would have been better if it had a little more umami.

It is brewed by a young brewer who used to work at Kuroryu. From this season, the responsible brewing will be separated from the regular products and will be available only to special distributors. For a moment, you may wonder what's going on. But after a short delay, the concentrated, juicy sweetness and umami taste arrives. I think it is rather refreshing. It may be a unique flavor. It is a very drinkable type of wine.

This sake is limited to two liquor stores, one in Sakai and the other in Kishiwada. Only 12 bottles are in stock, so the next time I come back, there won't be any left, so I was allowed to try a special sample before purchasing. It has a rather gorgeous ginjo aroma. It has a low alcohol content and is sweet with a gentle taste. It is low in alcohol, but you can feel the fullness of the flavor. It has no gaseous feeling, but it is fresh. It can be used by itself or with food. Shimada Special is delicious no matter what you drink.

This is the first time I've bought bamboo island since the new system was put in place. According to the official website of the Japan Famous Sake Association, the rice is Nihonbare and Yamadanishiki. The lees are submerged and when mixed, it is slightly effervescent and petite. Slightly sweet and bitter. I wonder if it is better to drink it while it has gas? Once the gas is gone, the bitterness will make it hard to drink 🤔. I wonder if it would be sweeter to drink the alcohol by itself?

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023 It is a very crisp, dry, deep-flavored Ajiginjo. The aroma is subtle. The mellowness is more apparent in junmai sake. This is also a good sake. I drank 8 glasses this time and they were all good! There are so many good sake that I can't keep up with them all! It's a happy scream!

Rice used is unknown Slightly pear-like aroma. It has a light shwashiness, and the sweetness is refreshing and light. Is it a summer sake? The umami is also crisp and clean. This is good!

Today we are in Hitachinokuni, right above Makabe. Smell is a little light. The taste is a little cemedine, soft but I think it is a little bit weak in taste. I can't feel many attacks. thanks Liquor Shop Kinase (Mito)

@SAKE Street Rice used is Nihonbare There are still some good sake in Ibaraki that we don't know about yet. ❗️ It is mild on the palate, with an impressive soft sweetness. The umami has depth and strength. The bitterness in the aftertaste is also 👌. You can enjoy various expressions depending on the temperature. I'm sure I'll be a repeat customer. ❣️

The jacket is stylish. It has a strong alcohol smell and a dry taste. When you roll it around on your tongue, the bitterness and miscellaneous tastes spread over the whole mouth. I would like to have something to eat with this. Unlike the label, it is a powerful sake in the traditional sense. It is amazing that it has a complex flavor despite being a junmai (pure rice) sake.

There are only two sake rice study groups left. I've been posting them chippy-chippy, so my notes and my memory are no longer connected. But there is no doubt that they were delicious. The ninth bottle was Kami no Ho from Mie Prefecture. The first bottle was a Saku no Kami no Hoho, which got me hooked on sake rice, but it tasted completely different. The aroma is banana, I guess. It has a slightly sweet taste with a refreshing dryness from the microbubbles. It goes on and on... a never-ending type of sake. The next post should be the last in this study of sake rice.

Special Junmai Nigori Nama-zake🍶Kami-no-ho🌾 from Mie Prefecture. Seme smell, fresh✨, a little schwag. Sour and spicy. Mustardy 🙄 according to my wife. When paired with the koji-marinated squid (🦑), it takes the edge off and cozies up to you. The power of koji is amazing 😆. Looks like a new brand to be born in spring 2023.

☆☆☆☆☆ It has sourness and a little bit of miscellaneous taste or bitterness, then comes the sweetness or umami of nigori. It has a bitter, youthful taste that goes well with spring wild vegetables. The sweetness that comes afterwards is also youthful.

Weekend drinking out with work friends in Tokyo. At the first place, it was wine from beer. Sake at the second one... more details 😆. A bit dry... I don't remember the wooden barrel feeling that I was so excited about 🙏. The first sip was very quick and easy to drink 😅

Sometimes I drink out! I forgot to take a picture of the back label. The rice is called Akebono. It has been a long time since I have had it. Overall, it's clean, with a soft flavor. It smelled great, and it was a delicious drink! You can buy a quadruple bottle for less than 1,000 yen, so the cost is good ✨

At the tasting. It was explained to me that it was dry. It is certainly dry, but it has a gentle spiciness. It has a mild mouthfeel. I bought Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate after comparing the drinks.

Purchased at a very old sake brewery established in 1532. It is even better than expected. The aroma is subdued, but the flavor of the rice comes through honestly. It is suitable as a food sake, and I have high expectations for heating it up tomorrow.

Brewed by Endo Sake Brewery in Suzaka, Nagano Domuroku Keiryuu Activated Nama Shu Junmai This sake is new to me. When I tried it, I found it to be foul tasting (@_@).

Akebono Shuzo's Akebono Seishun, well known for Tenmei. I drink Tenmei from time to time, but this label is new to me, so I opened the bottle 🎉. The aroma is gentle and subdued. It has a slight viscosity and seems to be quite sweet, but the bitterness soon develops. It then fades away leaving a complex umami taste. At 17 degrees alkalinity, the flavor is thick and robust from the first sip 👊. This Daiginjo is made from Yamada-Nishiki polished to 40%. We enjoyed this clear yet rich umami sake 😋.

A birthday present from my parents, a lifetime of youth and bottle-taking. It was a very luxurious gift from my parents. However, the rice is not polished very much. The aroma is sharp and sharp. The color is a beautiful clear yellow. It has a full-bodied sweetness and a burning alcohol taste in the mouth. The lingering astringent taste is strong and dry. There is a slight tanned leather-like flavor.
