This is the sake we drank tonight. I am not a big fan of sake that has a heavy taste, but this sake is from a brewery that specializes in sake. It has plenty of sweetness and umami. It is smooth without any spikes, and this is delicious. Tsumami is always nabe. I love spinach❤

Local sake brewery. Sake made with wine yeast, seems to be their first attempt. Nice collaboration with an aroma and taste like a white wine🍸 with the sweetness of a big country 😄. It has a firm sweetness and a nice acidity. I thought I don't like wine yeast, but this is a good one.

Unique aroma. Crisp sake.

Local first guess Kura. I went out of my way to hold out until the right time to get the spring sake pink label 😣 and after all, the label too 😁. The first one is a beautiful young green color🩵. Taste... the aroma is green apple, the sweetness is subtle and the refreshing acidity is nice 💓Bitter taste makes it a good food sake. We had a Chinese dinner menu of sweet-and-sour pork and spring rolls, and it went well with them 😋.

After returning home, I wondered what to drink and chose "Karahashi" by Homare Shuzo, which I had never had a chance to drink before! It is a junmai ginjo made from Omachi. The first sip gives the impression of sweetness with no sourness. As you continue drinking, the spiciness comes out and the trinity of sweetness, umami, and spiciness comes together, which is just the right balance and delicious. There are other sake rice varieties in the Karahashi series besides Omachi, so you have to try them 😆.

Japanese>English

It is fruity, but you can also feel the taste of rice. The aftertaste is clean and this is drinkable.

Japanese>English

Karahashi label by Homare Sake Brewery. Unfiltered unpasteurized sake made from sake rice Yume no Kou. Fruity ginjo aroma. The aroma of melon and sweetness, followed by a slight sourness and bitterness, finally fading away with a slight spiciness. Although it is unfiltered raw, there is no bitterness or peculiarity, and the impression is of a soft, sweet, umami taste. After a few days of drinking, the balance between sweet and spicy has improved. It is a delicious sake that is so easy to drink that it makes you want to drink more and more. ☺️

Bacchus and Yamaha 2023, Toyama Eki-naka BAR ^ ^. The fourth drink is Narimasa, Junmai Daiginjo, 2021 Sake Brewing Year. 2 years old sake. Every sake at Narimasa is 100 yen per glass. Too cheap. I didn't really feel the sense of maturity, but it is a slightly dry sake with a long aftertaste.

Japanese>English

The freshness of the sweetness spreads. Sourness comes into play at the end. Scented! Yummy 😋 Very good 👍 lol.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Nanto City Purchased at an antenna store in Toyama Prefecture The aroma is mild, slightly fruity. The overall impression is DRY. The finish is moderately bitter and spicy. It is a good food sake.

The other day, I saw Kazuhiko Ota drinking Furozumi on TV, and I wanted to drink it for the first time in a while, so my husband bought some at a local liquor store. I wanted to drink it for the first time in a long time, so my husband bought it at a local liquor store. When the bottle is opened, there is a faint aroma of rice. The color is slightly amber. It tastes great cold, but if you warm it up to lukewarm, the corners are removed and the flavor becomes rounder. It has a deep taste with the sweetness of rice. It is also good with strong flavored meals. As the name suggests, it's deliciously warmed!

Japanese>English

Furozumi after a long time Strong flavor, fruity

I had to put it down without drinking it carefully, and it's late. Dry and tasty! Not too heavy.

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.

Purchased directly from Koganei Sake Brewery...good aroma of Gohyakumangoku...can feel the delicious taste of rice...mmmm...THE local sake! It has the flavor of a local sake, but it also has a modern feel...and a sharp aftertaste! The slight bitterness is only possible with Gohyakumangoku....

Japanese>English

Just as the label says. Fresh acidity It has a low alcohol content of 12%. Even those who don't like sake can enjoy this sake! My wife says it's like drinking apple vinegar I'm drinking it like apple cider vinegar 😆.

Here's the last GW drink we had It was a sake brewery I knew nothing about. This sake was sold as a summer draft sake by the Japan Meimon Shukai. It seems it was the first sake from this year to be released as a Meimon Sake Kai sake. Miyamanishiki from Akita Prefecture, Sake meter value +3, No. 9 yeast Citrusy aroma. The impression is that it is quite sweet and has a rich umami flavor, making it very drinkable. It is not a modern type of sake, but it is quite drinkable. A little acidic? It's hard to drink by itself... It's hard to drink if you don't drink it while eating. I was looking up information on this sake and happened to find out that a liquor store in my neighborhood has started a social networking site 😳.
