I am not a fan of summer drinks. It is because it is often too spicy or too weak. I bought this sake at a certain sake store I always visit when I go squid fishing in Tottori, because the brand I was looking for was out of stock. For some reason, the liquid is pinkish in color, but there is no mention of color in the description. I took a sip. There is no distinctive aroma. Oh, it is surprisingly sweet. It is spicy, but not too spicy that I don't like it. It tastes round. In general, it has a strange taste, and I never get tired of drinking it. There is nothing sparkling about it, but it has an irresistible, smoldering charm that makes you want to drink it. Tottori has a lot of interesting and unusual sake.

It was refreshing and tasty!

It has a moderate sweetness. It is a refreshing drink. It has a mild aroma. It complements a meal well. The concept of this sake is "the ultimate sake for food. It is a unique brewery that brews Hakurakusei.

The owner of the sake shop where I often go to buy sake gave me a sample and it was delicious, so I bought it. It is a local sake from Aichi Prefecture. Slightly dry, refreshing and easy to drink. 1430 yen

Japanese>English

I recently bought this for 700 yen on the web. It seems to have been left in the shop for more than a year, so it was cheap as a disposal sake😄. It's a beautiful sake for a sake that has been neglected👍. The aroma is pear-like, but the taste reminds me of apples ️. It's sweet but crisp and very easy to drink😆. It's so easy to drink 😆 If it's this quality, I might want to buy it and drink it properly. I can't make fun of Aichi prefecture!

Japanese>English

The owner of our favorite liquor store, Higashi Ryu This year we were able to get Sasanigori without incident. The regular version of Jungin is also very tasty, so we are very interested in this one as well. The aroma is fruity and reserved. The mouthfeel is smooth and sweet, and you know it's good the moment you taste it! The aftertaste is fruity and fruity. The fruitiness increases around the time of the aftertaste, and the acid bitterness at the end is mild. It is a strange sake with a sense of transparency even though it is a "Sasanigori" sake. The Sendai Aoba Festival will finally begin tomorrow. Last weekend, a purification ceremony and a lighting ceremony for the Date Gate were held, and everything is ready for the festival to get into full swing. The weather is looking good, and it is the best time of the year when the blue leaves are at their most radiant. I will be there with my tin can and singing the woodcutter's song! Please come to Sendai this weekend! Thanks for the food!

☆☆☆☆☆ 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!

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

October 2024 Dairy and Yeast Hornbill Report 2📝. I had a drink at the HYOGO SAKE EXPO, and without knowing it, I decided to have it here again 🍶. Nutty and sweet, but flows smoothly like Yamada Nishiki 💨. I looked at the label carefully and realized that it was a draft sake.

Japanese>English

It is a gift from a friend. Thank you. It is a sake from Nada. It is very easy to drink and delicious, just like a Junmai Daiginjo! The mouthfeel is slightly mineral, and the fruity flavor comes through softly. It is soft and not too sweet, but it leaves a slightly tangy aftertaste that makes you want another sip! I usually drink mostly sake from the north, but sometimes I think that sake from the west is also delicious.

The second drink at Marukoma was my first "Koshu". It is light and crisp with a pleasant lingering aftertaste. The second sake was "Koshu", which is also from Niigata but has a different flavor from the "Hokusetsu" that we drank for the first sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

This Sake is light and not too sweet. There are herbal flavor notes like licorice and mint. The finish is clean with a light mineral aftertaste. I am told this is a limited, seasonal Sake.

. Sake rice: Niigata-grown Senjyuraku Polishing ratio: 55 Sake degree: +4 Acidity: 1.1 Sake made by Asahi Shuzo, the brewer of Kubota At "Honokuni" in the main station of Toyohashi Fruity, no sourness or bitterness at all. Flavor is clean and quite weak! ☆ 3.5

The fourth one is Nechi-Osan. This is my first time to visit this brewery. I always thought it was "KONCHI". Sorry locals! The taste of rice is well expressed, but the overall taste is clean and dry. The aftertaste is a bit peculiar, but it is good in its own way. Thank you!

Japanese>English

OSAKA SAKE&FOOD EXPO 2024⑳ Lastly, we went to the Komatsuya booth again. Nechi from Nechiozan, which is not seen very often. There were many different rice varieties, but we chose the Koshitanrei 1st class rice 2020. Nechi is only available at authorized dealers. It was easy to drink with a beautiful taste and a hint of sweetness. The review of this event was a bit of a mess, so please refer to Nechi's post later on 🤣.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ The second bottle of local sake is Nechiozan. This one is drier than Yukitsuru. But it does not interfere with the meal, yet it is still a strong sake. I think it is good.

A gift from my parents-in-law. The first time I drank it, it was also good❗️ In the basic refreshing, there is also a strong taste of rice, as a medium sake in the meal is very good😆. I enjoyed it with spring bonito and firefly squid. Thank you to my father and mother-in-law😊.

Last of the day. It has been a while since I had this one. It has a medium mouthfeel, with a spicy and umami richness from the mid-palate. It goes on and on until the aftertaste.

I'm not sure if it's because it was just opened or not. I wonder if the fact that it was just opened had something to do with it. Maybe it will be different if I drink it in a couple of days.

A liquor similar to white wine ♪ The aroma before you drink it gives you a hint of wine... It was so delicious that all three of us drank it in one go.

Japanese>English

The last of Hankyu Brewery Festival The first one: Fukuoka Wakatakeya Debut Sake like a dark white wine with the flavor of rice. But it is easy to drink! But be careful, it has 17 degrees of alcohol! This one was taught by Haruei Chichi and Gura. It's my first time in Fukuoka with this delicious drink! Thank you very much 🙏. The second one, Tottori Inada Honten IKU'S SHIRO Sweet and sour, tastes like juice. I tasted various kinds of sake while learning from many members. It was a lot of fun! If you are going tomorrow or later, please drink a lot and enjoy 🎶.
