This sake brewery is located along a road in the town of Yaotsu. Junmai sake is aged in the embankment of a dam. It has a mild taste with Junmai-like characteristics. It seems to have been quietly sleeping and has a calming flavor.

I received it again this year from a friend. I drank it on the rocks. It was a little dry and tasted more like old-fashioned sake than recent sake.

I received this sake from a friend and drank it at room temperature. I drank it at room temperature, and on the second day it became mellower and easier to drink. It is like a traditional sake.

Sake event held at a bank in front of Hankyu Okamoto station (´-ω-`๑)♡! Dry but sweet rich flavor with a fat ginjo-shu. It has a slightly delicious aroma! I had experienced Mino Tengu at a different event before, but I had a good impression of it then too, so I knew it was a good brewery! I'm glad I prefer unpopular sake, and I've been watching the reports of your availability on Sake-no-wa with great interest, but I'm still surprised at the speed at which the popular sake sells out every time!

@sakebar Fukuzo Fire-brewed sake using Fukuoka Prefecture's original yeast called F44. Slightly sweet aroma of 🍍 on the nose. The palate is slightly sweet with a hint of 🍍. The aroma is as if it was made with hana-yosuyu in mind. However, the aroma is weak because it is fire-aged. The sweetness is also weak due to the weak aroma. I am a little curious to see how it would be like if it were a fresh sake. It was delicious ✨🍍.

Nama Sake 🍶. Nagano Ueda Railway Journey🚃Day 3 Light and smooth. Sweet but not sticky. A little fruity. Peachy katsu-don with a hint of acidity 😋It was a very relaxing restaurant and gave my body a rest after being down in the heat 👍I would like to visit again ✨. Sanyuken @ Bessho Onsen 20240907

Mellow sake 🍶. Nagano Ueda Railway Journey🚃Day 3 From Ueda, take the Ueda Dentetsu Bessho Line🚃 to Bessho Onsen (Bessho Hot Springs) ♨️ Lunch at the diner that was reflected in the setting of the 18th film Otoko wa Tsuraiyo. The aroma of the food was very strong. But it is sweet and gentle, not harsh. It has just the right amount of maturity. Goes well with Nozawana. It softens the salty taste of Nozawana. The chicken gizzard and boiled pork are also delicious 😋 I'm so glad I found a hidden gem restaurant 😆. Sanyuken @ Bessho Onsen 20240907

Japanese>English

😊. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Alcohol Content:16%. I managed to get over the train when I was with Yuka-chan, but I did it on the way home from drinking with the second daughter (I am the eldest) of the Otsubonez (three bureau sisters) in my department. I lost my memory at the next station where we sat down, saying "I might fall asleep if I get to sit down. Why didn't I wake up 5 minutes before? The train in the opposite direction was the last of the day and I had to wait 20 minutes. I managed to only sleep on the platform. Then I had a blast sleeping in the cab as well... Now, to get back on track, here is the evening drink of the day. The aroma was sweet, but when I drank it, the sweetness was not as strong as the aroma, and there was a good balance of sweetness, sourness, and finally bitterness. It went very well with a little bit of shibi-shibi (bean-curd soup with red pepper paste).

I can't believe I'm going to be here. What a delicious aroma! It's been sitting in the fridge for 3 years. I couldn't bring myself to open it... I wonder if it's matured? Clean and refreshing taste with no corners. Lactobacillus-based sweetness and sourness Delicious! Now it's time to stir When I stirred the thick oli... Hmmm... I shouldn't have mixed it... But it's true, you never hear of aged ooze... I learned a lot!

Japanese>English

The sweetness first fills the mouth, and then the tanginess of the alcohol makes it a sake that tastes great when drunk hot, just like old Japanese sake.

The Gujo Odori dance festival has started again this year. I would like to go there someday. So, I enjoyed the delicious food while thinking of Gujo.

☀️ The rice is Ishikawa Mon, a sake brewing rice from Ishikawa Prefecture 🌾. I like the name, it's very cool 😎. It's sake 🍶. It has a very slight amber color 🟡. I don't know much about wine, but I thought the color was vaguely reminiscent of something you would find in wine 🍷. The taste is a mixture of sweetness like ripe apples 🍎 and a good amount of umami. The wine is very smooth with a slight acidity at the end 🤗.

Sen Junmai Ginjo Firm umami. Delicious to the aftertaste. SUMA SHUZO, Ishikawa Prefecture. Drink and support!

Japanese>English

A special junmai sake with a clear taste. It's a little more refined than I usually prefer. In that sense, it may not be like a special junmai sake, or perhaps it is because it is a special junmai sake? The aroma is nice too... 🤩.

This is a gift from my mother-in-law who loves sake! It's very sweet and easy to drink!

Japanese>English

Taste of the Ancient Times Aroma reminiscent of old wood and steamed rice. The sharp mouthfeel is followed by a tangy, pungent taste. The taste is full of alcohol with a hint of umami, and finishes with a lingering pungent and astringent aftertaste. It gives the impression of good old tradition. It tastes like an old house. We would like to support this brewery as it is the nearest brewery to Okayama. ★★★★

Japanese>English

Bizen tasted Ichinomiya sake. The labeling was a bit dubious, with no indication of rice polishing ratio or alcohol content, and "Junmai Daiginjo" pasted on the label after the fact... The taste was fresh and light. The taste was fresh, light, and refreshing.

Rice used is Fumei Purchased at Fukuoka Airport There was also a limited edition sake for the airport, but I'll get back to that later. It's more like a sour or a juice, or something like that. It's not too sweet, so it's easy to drink. Depending on the food and the situation, I think this is also possible...

Japanese>English

It came out of the back of the fridge. It was like drinking a sweet and sour sizzling soft drink, gone in an instant💦.
