Brewed with flower yeast isolated from cherry blossoms 🤗. The top aroma is fruity and refreshing with a hint of apple. The top aroma is fruity and refreshing with hints of apple and wood. The moderate yet deliciously acidic aftertaste is like that of a white wine. It is slightly dry and crisp, with a refreshing aftertaste that is delicious during the hot and humid season 😌.

Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno City, Saitama Junmai Daiginjo. The rice for the sake is Kitashizuku🌾。 This is a limited edition of 600 bottles stored at freezing temperatures (-5 degrees Celsius) for 5 months, and I want to drink it 💦 This is a small 180ml bottle at Yokouchi Sake Shop Drinking Comparison Day. So_1F350 A little gassy, like a summer drink. The mouth is a little hot 🔥. It's hard to describe, but it's sweet and spicy. 16% alcohol and 47% rice polishing ratio

Purchased in Nerima Ward, Tokyo ♪ Alcohol content@16 Sake degree @ Undisclosed Acidity @ Undisclosed Rice used: Undisclosed Rice Polishing Ratio@Undisclosed Personal Recommendation@3.8/5.0 Fusui is the third brand of Igarashi Shuzo following Tenranzan and Igarashi. ❣️ A fire-brewed, undiluted blend of the three Junmai Daiginjo, Junmai Ginjo and Junmai Sake in the Fusui series 😍. Now Igarashi Sake Brewery is complete 😝. It's not a draft sake, but it needs to be refrigerated, but it's delicious warmed up too ❓❓❓❓ but I can't drink heated sake on this hot day, so I'll drink it chilled to a crisp. ✌️ The aroma is mild but apple-like. It's not gassy at all. Igarashi is known for its gasiness when pumped directly from the bottle. It has a slight sweetness in the mouth 👄. And a slight bitterness that spreads 👄. This is a well-balanced sake, It doesn't have any outstanding characteristics, but as a food sake, I would give it an acceptable score. ✌️

Tonight, a little early in the evening & first in the series, a Fukunoka Yamahai Jungin Nakakkumi Unfiltered Nama from Kunigon ✨. The aroma is mild cucumber, melon 🍈 The taste has just the right amount of rice and honey-like sweetness, followed by a layer of acidity and spiciness that makes it very easy to drink and I love it 😋😋😋😋.

Japanese>English

With Ihyakumangoku and Fukushima's original yeast, there is nothing to look forward to but enjoyment. Is the modest fruity taste from Gohyakumangoku? It is mellow like an autumn sake. But it is sharp.

I bought this sake on my Nagano expedition! I was curious about it because of your post. But there is no special distributor in my neighborhood 😭. As per the rumors? Just as you posted! I'm so glad I bought it! And it's cloudy. It has a hint of acidity (I think?) It has a hint of acidity (or so I thought) and is refreshing! （I thought so.)

My first time at Hanaizumi. And nigori sake! This season, there are a variety of nigori sake, which is very enjoyable. First, the top clear sake. It is moderately sour. After stirring it, it becomes more rounded. The texture is silky (is that the right word?). The glutinous rice is not perceived, though I like rice cakes. I like rice cakes, but I think it's dry. I want to eat Karami rice cake.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we will return to Nigori Sake Road and open this bottle 💁. Hanaizumi Jungin Akkatsu Nigorizake 2023BY ✨✨✨✨ It was active, but since it had been absent for a while, it was easy to open the bottle. As usual, we will drink only the top clearings first. It's a bit of lactic acidity, a bit gassy on the tongue, and a nice dry finish 😋😋😋😋😋 After mixing the lees, it's a round adult calpis soda🥤 and it doesn't stop there. I'm still going to enjoy nigori sake 🙌

The sake rice is Hitomebore, and the name Hitonatsu no Koi is interesting. The taste is sharp and crisp, and you can enjoy the story while imagining how it is a love that makes you yearn for a flower of high peak. Serve with dashimaki (Japanese soup stock rolls) as a side dish.

A colleague of mine brought in this sake. It seems to be a rare sake that is only available through regular purchase. It has a fresh aroma and is very clear and luxurious. I got the impression that it was carefully crafted with brewer's alcohol. It is perfect for my taste buds as well. You can't take it home with you when you visit Ise, but I heard that you can drink it there, so I would definitely like to taste it again.

National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2 (11) Mie 1) Eiji-san went to the Aichi booth, so I'll start from here alone. Iseman in Ise City Rice polishing ratio 40%, Yamadanishiki 16%, Sake degree -3, Acidity 1.4 4760 yen This sake has won various awards such as Kura Master and IWC. It has a strong impression of sweetness rather than flamboyance. It is sweet and delicious. The brewer was there and we talked about his visit to the brewery for New Year's. The tickets for the National Sake Fair were not selling as well as expected. We also talked about how the tickets for the National Sake Fair were not selling as well as expected. He was a nice man and I remember talking with him about many other things. After this, this person continued to serve us at the Mie booth.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.
