I've always been curious about it because I often see it at Takashimaya, but this is my first time to drink it. The rice is Asahi rice and Yamadanishiki. It is fresh and has a strong sweet flavor, but the aroma and taste are a bit unique. I also feel a bit of hardness. I'll give it some more time and see how it goes. Apple and honey-like sweetness with a sense of thickening.

Fruity with a gorgeous aroma. Sweet, juicy and a little bitter at the end. It's really tasty. I drink Takebayashi more often at events than at home, but I never miss it.

☆☆☆☆☆ It is heated to a high temperature. It's what I call a good heated sake. It's just plain good.

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm going to say it. I've been drinking it with mackerel tataki, wild yellowtail, squid sashimi, and tuna sashimi.

It was a gift ✨. New politics again! First time for Uhei Sato It's so delicious ✨. It's a little fizzy and sweet, just like Shinsei. It's very easy to drink, but... You can feel the flavor of the rice well ☺️. I was going to drink it for my birthday, but I couldn't resist the temptation of Shinsei.

Tomiikiku's local sake ministry️ popular at Haneya. This sake is available in supermarkets😊. The traditional method of production is the same as that of Haneya. Different tastes with different vectors 😋. This sake is characterized by sweetness and umami, not dryness. The common feature is a powdery taste like Kamishinko. It's not always available and not always cheap. I've been through it all along😅lol

As expected! Apparently it's only available at Seven. 300ml costs about 700 yen. It's shocking that this can be found in a convenience store! It's juicy, refreshing, and slightly sizzling. It's not alcoholic, and it's gone in a flash!

It's not as good as the Haneya award-winning sake I drank the other day. but the sweetness and elegant taste was similar😄. It was delicious and I drank it at a good pace.

Sasasande - I'm still in the sasandei. A trophy of the Niigata expedition. Surprisingly, it tastes like a summer sake with a strong acidity. It is said to be made from 100% Kame-no-o with a 65% rice polishing ratio. I wonder if anyone can guess the type of rice by the masking. Someday I would like to say, "Oh, this is Omachi"...

Purchased at Ponshukan. It has a cute design that does not look like a cup of sake. The sake is brewed with four varieties of rice produced by four farmers in the Nishigama district, located in the far west of Niigata Prefecture. So that's what the grains of rice on the label mean. That makes sense. The sake was served cold in the cold sake corner at the store, so I chilled it well at home. It has a well-balanced taste, not too sweet or dry. It is easy to drink and delicious. Niigata's cup sake has a huge variety and high quality.

Rice used is Gohyakumangoku The acidity is effective, and the umami flavor is penetrating. It has been a long time since this sake had the impact of a sake made from a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast.

At Hankyu Department Store I had a chance to drink all kinds of sake. The nigori was also delicious. They also gave us a 1:1 blend of nigori and junmai. It was also delicious. The one that caught my attention was the Junmai sake "P&A (Panda)", Junmai sake "P&A (Panda)". It's black and white, so I guess it's 🐼😁. It is said that lactic acid is not used in the yeast stocking but is substituted with citric acid produced from white and black malted rice and fermented slowly at low temperature. It is refreshing and light to drink. Pleasant acidity and a clean aftertaste, but it was a bit unusual.

The toji has been replaced and they are using a ferry for rice this year. Fresh, sweet and sour, but complex. Is it lightly gassy? A portion of the proceeds will be donated to animal welfare😺🐶. Overall, I'd say it's a light drink? The label is emo. The summer label looks like something out of Boku no Natsuyasumi.

Home drinking. 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Shiga Prefecture The color is slightly whitish. The mouthfeel is clean and mild. The taste is sweet like green apple. The acidity is blended with sweet and sour. Is it sweet? Is it sweet? But then the sourness appears and has a big impact 🤩. The aftertaste has the umami of the rice, which is even more pronounced when combined with the acidity. I felt that the hint of aroma also penetrated through. By not being too sweet, the acidity and fragrance were also well perceived, allowing me to enjoy a mellow and refreshing sake 😊.

Very ordinary cup of alcohol (´¦). You can taste a good sweetness with no added sugar. I'm happy with the taste, which is very typical for a cup of sake. It still tastes better when heated. It's not that unique, just a good cup! This is the kind of sake I like! This is the kind of sake I like! Mr. Mitamura went to Kiyotsuru! He was drinking old sake that you can't usually buy!

I bought a bottle of Ayagiku's raw sake because it seems to be rare. I bought it at Okura Sake Shop in front of Tamatsukuri Station. It is a new store opened this year. They seem to carefully select and handle brands that are not found in the Kansai region. They have a wide selection of sake brands such as Rairaku, Kinshi Morinori, Shonosato, Hizen Kurashin, Chitose Mori, Kikunoi, Hakuryu (Fukui Prefecture), Ayagiku, Hanashimi, Zoka, Morinokura, Rokkasen, Tenzan, etc. Sake made with Sanuki olive yeast. Fresh, rich, sweet and acidic. The acidity is impressive, but there is also a bit of spiciness in the latter half. It has a light mouthfeel for its alcohol content, perhaps due to the acidity. It does have a slightly tropical flavor.

( ꈍᴗꈍ)🍶🍶🍶🍶 The other day, when I was in Okunoto on business, I was given a bottle of freshly brewed sake at Tsuruno Sake Brewery, the brewery that produces Taniizumi 👍I asked the cashier to put a label on it and brought it back 😙. Slightly melon-like aroma 😊Smooth on the palate, with a refreshing umami and acidity 😚Smooth, clean finish 🥰Overall, not flashy, but would go well with any dish 🥳👍.

I've always wanted to drink Taniizumi! I wasn't sure which one to choose, but on the other hand, it looks like the regular sake is harder to find, so I chose this one😃! It's a regular sake, but apparently it's Fukuroshibori! The first sip gave me the impression that it was a traditional sake☺️. The first sip was like a traditional sake ☺️ I could taste the strong grain flavor but then the sweetness and mellowness came through 😚 it wasn't dry 😆.

20230721 Dry sparkling sparkling with secondary fermentation in the bottle🍶. Rice is grown in rice paddies that maintain the environment in which yago (Japanese bitterling) grows How can it not be delicious? I can't get enough of the shwashiness, which is different from that of raw sake (≧∇≦)! Thank you so much for the food. m(_ _)m

It was a sweaty day as I went to line up in Ginza in the morning to buy a bottle of wine. The bottle said it was 18 degrees, so I enjoyed it slowly on the rocks. I served it with edamame (soybeans), leatherfish, sweet shrimp, and surume tempura. It was very tasty as a food sake.

Corner shop at the mysterious cheese shop (2) Since the corner drinking at this restaurant is self-serve, we discovered an unopened bottle of Moridori when searching the refrigerator! I entrusted it to Mr. Nemuchi, a professional corker 😁. I drank a lot of dry sake at an off-line meeting the other day and I'm in the mode that I can drink some dry sake, right? I'm in a mode that some things are dry, so I drank it. It's definitely dry, but it's delicious with a nice sweetness and gasiness 😁.

I think it was a collaboration of several sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture.

Purchased at a liquor store specializing in Hyogo sake with mofu. There were many people drinking sake in the store and the atmosphere was bizarre. When I asked the store staff if it was an event, he told me that they were people who had come from Ozeki's brewery open at a nearby store. The smell of squid filled the air, and the waiter said he was sorry for the smell 🤣. This sake is brewed with salvia yeast collected by students at an agricultural high school. It is slightly effervescent and has a unique flavor. Sweet but cosmetic like no other aroma. A little nutty in the second half. I thought it was a little peculiar. After 3 days, a little bit of rum raisin taste. Definitely tastier than freshly opened 😋.
