I opened a bottle of Banzairaku Daiginjo Kosake, which was a gift from a friend 😀 The aroma is that of a royal sake. The taste is quite strong. It's the second time I've had it, but it's a difficult taste to describe. Tomorrow I'll try it at room temperature.

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!

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!

SAKE POST Item The sweet aroma of rice is followed by a refreshingly sour taste. It has a refreshingly sour taste and a thick, refreshing taste with a thick, refreshing finish.

Japanese>English

A gift from someone at work. It was a sake made from Takane-nishiki, a sake rice I had never heard of. It seemed to have a refreshing acidity, but it disappeared later. I paired it with Thai carpaccio, octopus, soy sauce, olive oil, and wasabi, and the sweetness and flavor increased! It became very mellow and delicious!

Opened October 19, 2024 Purchased at Funabashi Tobu Department Store event Very smooth (o^^o) Gentle, fresh, tongue-tingling sweetness with a hint of fermented acidity ☺️ Soft to the throat and easily absorbed ^ ^. I want to drink it slowly when something good happens 😆.

Japanese>English

It was full of sake feeling. Just like the jacket? Sake that is just like the jacket! I don't know how to describe it. I don't know how to describe it, but although it is called Daiginjo, it is more like a heavy drink when you want to drink sake rather than a tasty one. Of course, it was a delicious bottle.

Japanese>English

A gift. Warmed. Classically rich in umami with a lingering finish.

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.

(3,000 yen) (3,000 yen) (3,000 yen) An expensive sake purchased on order. The aroma has a slight alcohol smell. When you drink it, it has a sour taste, but you can also taste sweetness! It has a heavy but clean aftertaste. I like it!

Japanese>English

It is a gift! Plenty of malted rice. Put it in a barrel. Isn't this whiskey? It smells faintly like it. Take a sip. Yeah, it's not whiskey... is it?　It's sake! My first experience.　Yum!

Japanese>English

It has a slightly yellowish color and a peculiar, strong taste. Still, the aftertaste is sharp and sweet. Can be served with sashimi.

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

Japanese>English

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!

Japanese>English

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.

It's just the two of us on the second day of our trip. We started the day with a beer toast! After the second beer, my wife had beer and I had sake, cold yesterday and hot this time! I think it was the highest temperature! Not much aroma. Not much aroma, but the mouthfeel is clean and easy to drink without getting stuck in your throat! It was a perfect match for a kaiseki meal. It was a hit with my wife. By the way, our trip to Izu was the same as last year! The hot springs are great!

On the first day of GW, the 29th, I purchased sake that goes well with meat 🥩. It's a collaboration product of Kumamoto's sake brewery "Zuitaka" and "Gullitcheu Fukushima" wrote the label. It's a dark, strong tasting sake that goes well with meat 👍️. I forgot to take a picture but the char-grilled chicken sold as a set is really hard 🤣. I have only a calendar day off, but I work on Saturday even though it's the first day of GW. I opened 3 bottles in a flash 👍️.
