There was one that caught my eye, so I had a glass. It was a good, refreshing sake, which I didn't think was a honjozo. Delicious.

Japanese>English

Ibigawa! We received this from kino.✨ Thank you kino. for everything 🙇‍♂️ First of all, cold sake! Sweet and delicious! Alcoholic taste like Honjozo! Then hot sake The alcoholic taste is mellowed. And the sweetness and umami are amplified. It's so good! ❣️ With yellowtail sashimi from Harunobu in Niigata! It went really well together 😋.

Japanese>English

On the first day, the taste was modern and classic, with a honey-like sweetness that asserted itself. The next day, the flavors are balanced and mixed together to create a delicious taste. For home drinking.

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

7.5 points (wife: 6.5 points) Ingredients : Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic) Alcohol content : 15 Rice polishing ratio : undisclosed Sake Degree : Undisclosed Store where purchased : After all is said and done, Japanese face (Sapporo, Toyohira-ku, Sapporo) Slightly amber in color. Slightly full-bodied rice malt top-drinker The aroma is like soy sauce behind the same aroma of the top rise, and the firm umami of rice and the moderate sweetness spreads zingily with soft acidity, leaving a lingering rice aroma with a moderate bitterness, and it finishes quickly. It has a mellow and unique aroma, a deep flavor, and a strange impression that does not feel heavy, making it a good match for strong-flavored meals. Even as a stand-alone sake, its mysterious impression is addictive. It goes well with grilled bonito, dashimaki egg with shrimp, teppanyaki hormone of Hikoma pork, and motsu (pork bone) stewed tofu.

. Kamofuku Brewery's Sake Sourness is soooo strong! Dry and umami. The color is golden. ✩3.5

It has almost no sweetness, giving it the feel of a healthy medicinal sake...but when heated, it takes on a different flavor, with a sweetness that comes through.

This is also a gift Sake from Kanagawa Prefecture. It's easier to drink than I expected. It's good as a midday drink.

It snowed, so we went to Tanzawa Daisen again. We came down and had a drink at Sakuraya, a teahouse near the lower shrine of Aburi Shrine. The seats in the sun are cozy. Kanai Sake Brewery is a local brewery in Hadano City, known for its famous water. The label says that it is a music brewery, which means that they make the koji mold play Mozart 😅I wonder if it is more about creating a fun work environment than making the mold play Mozart. As the label says it is for cold sake only, it was clean and dry.

This Sake has a full mouth feel and some sweetness at the beginning. The flavor of this Sake is bigger than other Seitoku Sake but it still has good balance. Very good with big flavor foods like mapo tofu.

This Sake has an initial sweetness and a full mouth feel. There is a hint of cedar as the alcohol clears my pallet. Very good with big flavor foods like yakiniku. Seitoku has many Sake that I enjoy.

This Sake is light, refreshing and easy to drink. I am revisiting this Sake because it has been a while since I last drank it. I enjoy the mild flavors of apple and melon with a clean, short aftertaste. This is a refreshing and well balanced Sake.

This is the sake for tonight. p It's a little aged and has a sticky sweetness, but it's soft on the palate, making it easy to drink and delicious. No, it is a delicious sake. So, why don't we make a sake club? It's fun! I'm sure it will be.

We had a good amount of sake from New Year's. I was happy to be able to drink this sake, which is rarely seen in the Kanto area. It is a very refreshing sake with a very smooth aftertaste! It went well with Osechi.

Harima is a sake brewed in Akashi and Uozumi. It has a cool taste with a good umami flavor. It is classically well-balanced. It was a truly delicious sake that went down smoothly with the sake cup.

Japanese>English

100% Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, with wine yeast. It is said that the name "Sora no Tsuru" comes from a dream of riding a beautiful "crane" soaring in the sky. Wine yeast is great because it makes rice sweet and sour! The top aroma is of grappa and rum raisins. When swirled, it smells of plum. The flavor is very sweet and sour, like plum wine. The color is a pale yellowish hue like lemon pulp, the legs are short and weak.

Japanese>English

It is a sake from Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture. It is only available directly in the city, and there are only a limited number of stores where you can drink it. I found it at a store selling Hyogo products in Kobe Hankyu in Sannomiya and bought it. How does it taste? It does not have the harshness of the original sake. It has a chocolate-like aroma. It has a rich sweetness, with spiciness and astringency chasing after it. The chocolatey and caramel-like aroma that passes through the nose is delightful. If you let it air a little, it becomes more brightly sweet and fragrant. It is simple, but quite flamboyant. How about if you heat it up? It tastes like chestnuts and is easy to drink! The spiciness that comes out volatilely and the refreshing sweetness that comes in quickly. It has a rich and expressive taste. It is really good. The aftertaste is also refreshing and sharp with a nice sweetness. I think it is especially good when heated. I have now completed a round of the 70-odd breweries in Hyogo Prefecture (and have 300 reports to my name)! It took me two years to complete this feat. It was a long but enjoyable journey. I will continue to enjoy Hyogo sake (and Fukui sake as well) slowly and carefully, and hope to one day become an evangelist for good Hyogo sake...

It feels light and refreshing for a moment, but then it hits you hard right after. It is quite sweet when drunk on its own, but when paired with a meal, it feels very spicy 😳. Well, even by itself, the spiciness comes through in the latter half of the bottle 😅. It has a sweetness like honey or sugar candy. I think the Sandesi watered down raw sake I bought at Harukas was easier to drink 🤔. It's easier to drink if you take it out of the fridge and let it sit for a bit 😋. I think I prefer Sandesi's raw sake in total because it's watered down and has more flavor.

Yum! Strong taste!
