The first sake was a souvenir from Ibaraki by my eldest son and his wife. A sake with a delicious taste of rice 🍶. Thank you for caring about us❗❗

Purchased in January at Kinase, a local sake brewery in Mito. I chose this brand for the Ibaraki local sake category. I was really torn between Watanabune and this one, which I had never had before. When I checked the aroma, I found a sour, vinegar-like smell... Looking at the label, we discovered that it had been bottled more than half a year. I didn't realize how much a draft sake deteriorates after half a year, even if the bottle is unopened... The taste is also undeniably deteriorated, but it is drinkable without any problems. It has a slight melon-like flavor with almost no sweetness. It is easy to drink as it is refreshing and sharp. I drank it much more smoothly. There is no doubt that the original is delicious. I want to revisit Matsumori for this...! But I didn't know it smelled like this. I learned a lot.

This is also a Sota's Hump Society exclusive🍶. Nice to meet you also Kita no Hana. The aroma is sweet with a hint of richness. In the mouth, it has a rich, dark, sweet flavor that is typical of nama sake, and then it finishes with a slight astringent taste. The richness and astringency of Yamadanishiki was delicious✨.

First brand name Kita no Hana. It is a backroom deal with a sake teacher. Even if I say it is a backroom deal, he will sell me any rare sake at the same price I bought it from the liquor store, and even if I tell him I will take care of the transportation costs, he stubbornly refuses to accept it. I told them that if I sold them at a higher price, the liquor store would take me on as a reseller, and after that, they would never sell me rare sake. The fact that you can normally drink Jyushiyo at home is based on the mutual trust between the seller and the buyer. Kita no Hana, the label is very attractive. I don't detect much of the Kamitatekoso, but there is a round, unfamiliar aroma in the back of the bottle. The mouthfeel is moist, calm, and elegant with sweetness and soft umami, and the rounded aroma in the aftertaste is fruity. The acidity and bitterness are both moderate, and it has a mysterious sharpness that just flutters and closes. It is really a round, gentle and mysterious sake, and this must be one of its balances. Thank you very much for the sake!

The sake that Rafa ordered. I exchanged it for the sake I ordered and drank some. The rice is said to be modified Nobukou. Unlike the straight kumi-style sake, it is calm and has a mild sweetness. It is more like a classic sake. The official website says it is about -7, so I think it is more on the sweet side. If you think of it as the standard sake of the brewery, it is quite high. It seems that Rafa has a connection with Satte City, where Toyoake's brewery is located, and I thought such an episode was interesting.

Toyoake in Satte, Saitama Prefecture. When I tasted it last week at Koedo Kurasato in Kawagoe, I felt its obvious individuality and immediately bought a 4-goupe bottle because I wanted to drink it at home. It is a fire-aged junmai sake with a slightly sweet, dark flavor and a modern acidity. It has character. The subtitle and the message on the back label are also good. The waka poem written on the box? on the box is also nice. The slight coloring is due to the limited amount of charcoal used in the filtration process.

Izakaya near the grapevine #2 Drink cold sake Sweet aroma Rice flavor with sweetness on the palate. The dryness appears immediately after the saké, but it quickly intensifies. The dryness is noticeable when the sake is on its own. When paired with salty snacks such as kanpachi vinegared miso or chicken sashimi, the dryness is reduced considerably and the sweetness increases. Good as an in-between-dinner drink

16%, 55% polished rice ratio, Kura-no-Hana, 1650 yen per quart, Kinryuzo from Ichinokura. It has a clean, low-key taste with a mildly mellow rice flavor. I heard that George Tokoro praised this sake on a darts trip at the end of last year, and it lived up to his praise ✨.

White peaches, strawberry gum, and a nice smell of sake lees on the sales floor. I have a feeling it's already delicious. Juicy syrup with a fruity taste, sweet sourness runs when you try to swallow. Once the taste fades, there is a slight effervescence, a light but not persistent sweetness, and a numbing sensation at the back of the tongue. Occasional bitterness. Overall, it is an elegant sweet sake with a sense of transparency. It is better to drink it in small sips rather than gulping it down.

Smells of peach, sake lees, and cream. Slightly effervescent, with a tangy, popping acidity, a slight sweetness and bitterness, it has a unique flavor and is clear to drink. It is a dangerous drink that can be drunk like water, as if the tongue becomes numb. My legs are dizzy. Delicious.

A colleague, who knows I like sake, gave it to me as a business trip gift. I could not read the label at first sight. When I drank it at 5 degrees Celsius, it was sweet, but also somewhat watery... When drunk at 0°C, it was sweet but also firm, with a strong rice flavor.

(*^▽^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 We had a positive snow love mountain today 😀. Tecate Caravelle is hard to photograph😈. The aroma is mild and not very strong, but when you drink it, the Aizan flavor hits you hard and the acidity follows, but it disappears quickly 😙It has a nice sharpness that keeps you going even with a good sip 🤔It was a delicious sake 🤤.

[Buy direct from Chisa Aoki🤩] I bought this bottle from Chisa Aoki, the eldest daughter of the brewery, at a sales event at Ikebukuro Seibu the week before last. It was great to meet a celebrity in the industry 😆. I couldn't taste it because of this time of year, but I was able to smell a few different scents and chose this label as my favorite ✌️. It's a Hitachinishiki Junmai Ginjo aged for almost 2 years at very low temperature, and it's the first label to be sold this year. The aroma is grape 🍇-like, which is the reason why I decided to buy it, and when you put it in your mouth, the beautiful sweetness and full-bodied flavor will fill your mouth. The aftertaste is crisp and spicy with a unique aroma that makes it a fun sake to drink😄. This is a must drink for those who are allergic to aged sake as well as Ousachi ❗❗ I should have bought this in a bottle 😅.

It's gassy and schwaggy. The aroma is quite fruity. The aroma is quite fruity, and the taste is refreshing, somewhere between dry and sweet. I have the impression that it hits the perfect balance between dry and sweet. The impression of "Gohkei-shiki" has been improved. I can't drink it because I don't usually see it 😅.

Last year I wanted to drink it but couldn't, so this year I really wanted to buy this sake. I'm glad I bought it! Too much Moromi! That's what a certain liquor dealer said, but I thought so too. The aroma is faintly apple...? First, let's take a taste of the supernatant... Sweetness like apples and pears! The overtones also smell like apples! There is a sourness! It's like a sweet and sour apple with a refined taste of koji. For a sake of this time of year, there are no unusual spikes in the flavor. If you think the taste is similar to something, it is similar to La+Yachiyo ROOM by Yachiyo Shuzo. I'm convinced that it has a sweetness like a pear as well as an apple. If you mix it with nigori, it becomes more dry even though it is energetic. It should be easy to drink even for those who are not that good at sweet taste.

Not much aroma. Slightly yellowish. The sake is junmai sake, so you would expect it to be robust, but it has a light mouthfeel. The light sweetness and acidity are pleasant. It is only 500 ml, so it ran out quickly. I wonder if I should throw it away or reuse it after drinking out of the Italian bottle every time. I'm a poor person, aren't I?
