(*^▽^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I stopped by a liquor store on my way home from exploring Fukui Station the other day and bought this Echizen Cape ✨😀 I haven't seen it in about 4 years 🐧. The aroma is a bit of a gorgeous ginjo aroma😊The mouthfeel is smooth and the sweetness and umami of the rice is elegant in the mouth 😘The aftertaste is short and disappears quickly 😚👍. It is a well-balanced and delicious sake 🥳👍

Light, refreshing, dry 🍶. And yet fruity and easy to drink✨. It was a complete package deal. I enjoy it very much.

Noodle Chan recommends the Honami 🌾. Gentle sweetness and sharp spiciness ✨ Goes great with sashimi 😍.

Last night was a New Year's party with a couple I met last year. We had dinner at a nice restaurant and then went to Kokubuncho. After the fourth bar, I finally had a chance to drink sake. I have known the owner of this sake bar on the outskirts of the city for about 25 years now. The lighting doesn't look like it's the kind of place you'd enjoy sake, but don't worry about that. The selection is quite good, so go for something you've never tried before. First up is Hiryu, the one with Tatsumi Fujinami's red towel. A dry sake with a refreshing yet tasty flavor, just like Mr. Shinzawa! Thank you very much for your hospitality!

My best friend gave me a small bottle to share with my last drink 😆👍. By the way, my best friend's wife recommended it to me. She likes it dry 😄. It's been a long time since I've had a dry sake, but I'm ready to try it💦. The aroma is fruity👍. I'm not a fan of too much dryness, but it was a good experience 🤗.

I don't want to say too much, but it is cosy and very tasty. It is also delicious on its own, but the rice flavor and ginjo aroma are as good as the food. Thick. What I don't want to say too much about it is that it's really cheap... I don't want it to become popular and expensive lol. Nakano Sake Brewery, can you do better there 😌.

Easy to drink. Dry and fruity Maybe it's more spicy than fruity. Well, it's a delicious sake.

The aroma is fruity, but not overpowering. The color is beautiful and the taste is sour, but it is dry, so it is very refreshing and delicious. Today I dare to drink it without a side dish. The alcohol content is high at 20 degrees, so be careful not to drink too much😊.

I bought it at my usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten 🍶. There were so many hiyaoroshi that I had to decide which one to buy ✌️ 720ml ¥2,145 It's the 2nd day of the party! Here's a quick comment! The aroma is slightly fruity💕. The color is golden and beautiful💕 The mouthfeel is smooth and smooth💕 The sweetness and umami of the rice comes to the forefront, but you can also taste the sharpness💕 It is a very beautiful sake without any unpleasant taste 💕 My wife also appreciated the taste 👍 Today's pairing is Shime saba (mackerel) and sashimi 💕 how could it not go well together 😊. It's a perfect match for my grandchildren and the party ✌️.

Oh no, the UI has changed too much and it's hard to operate. It's hard to get used to it. I forgot to give you the drink I drank when I went on a business trip. It has an apple-like aroma. Dry and full of rice flavor. Very tasty with cod chrysanthemum ponzu vinegar as a side dish.

At home. The third Nara sake without permission - ‼️. Kita Sake Brewery is located in Gobo-cho, Kashihara City and was founded in 1718. My son used to play baseball and we used to go to Sato Yakuhin Stadium near here. This is the first time for us to visit there. The aroma is not so strong, but there is a slight sweetness and alcohol. When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the sweetness, sourness, dryness, and the gradual feeling of alcohol. Oh, is this the ultimate in dryness? For now, I will only taste it tonight and wait for tomorrow to see how it changes. There was almost no change in taste after the second day. It is dry, but it has a sweet taste and is not unacceptable.

Japanese>English

Gohyakumangoku. Mellow sweetness and umami dominate. Slightly sour taste at the end.

Japanese>English

Miyogiku is a sake brewery located near Kashihara Shrine. I bought a Junmai sake and this Honjozo sake. It has a very high density of flavor and richness even in hiya, and the acidity is enough to go well with the drinks! It is also very well balanced in terms of both comfort and drinkability! It is even better when heated! This is wonderful! I bought a small bottle the day before because I had to buy a lot of things at Ise Jingu Shrine, but I want to buy another 4 bottles! Before going to the Kashihara Shrine, we went around the tombs around the shrine, and especially the Unebiyama Northeast Mausoleum was amazing! It was scary! Furthermore, although I must have been to Kashihara Shrine when I was a child, it looks bigger than the image I had when I was a child. Normally it should look smaller than it did when I was a child, but it was the opposite. I guess I felt the greatness of Kashihara Shrine.

It has a faint sweet and sour aroma. It goes down the throat easily. What remains in the mouth is sweetness. And a bitter taste. It's an unusual kind of sake that leaves a sweet taste. But it's delicious. Hokkaido sake is delicious.

I've never seen this before! Clean and tasty mouthfeel. It's a great answer. It goes well with seafood as a matter of course. The color is rather yellow, but it's good on its own or with sushi.

☆☆☆☆☆ Probably my first mountain cherry (Yusura) I wonder if the reason it's rather light is because it's a junmai daiginjo? I have the impression that it's not as good as Bean Curd with Bean Curd. But as a stand-alone sake, it is delicious! I think it is better to match it with something light, not with a strong snack. I think it's good as it can be drunk with a meal or a drink. Well, it is a Junmai Daiginjo, so it is better to enjoy it on its own. It was my first time to drink it, but it is delicious!

Koshi, koku ni kokoro?

This is a gift. It is expensive at 3,000 yen for a four-pack, but I love it. It is said to be the first brewery to ship unpasteurized sake. It is said to be the oldest existing company in Ibaraki Prefecture. It does not have the trendy sweetness at all, but you can taste the umami of the rice, and although it is not fruity, it is very gorgeous. The impression is especially rich when the bottle is just opened, but after 3-4 days, the impression changes to mild. I always drink it chilled, but I would like to try it warmed. But I have never tried it because it would be a shame to miss it. It has been 3,000 yen for a long time now, but I wonder if they will raise the price soon. I would like to buy one before that. 9
