［Fukui Spring New Sake Festival 10] I'm on my 10th cup of sake 😁. I was looking for my favorite "Hakugakusen" and found that it was only available on the first day of the event, so I went here instead 🍶. Unnoi Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjyo. Banana-like aroma, gentle sweetness on the palate, and a lingering mild umami aftertaste. I have a connection with "Kumonoi" since I brought it to the Kansai Sake-no-Iwa offline meeting I attended last summer, and it is still delicious when I drink it again.

This bottle was given to me as a birthday gift last year. I've been accumulating a stock of sake, so I decided to drink it slowly. It's a rare opportunity to see a bottle of sake in a tobin enclosure! It makes my heart dance ✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, you can smell a slight ginjo aroma. It is almost scentless. The mouthfeel is very clean, but the soft, milky sake quality and subtle sweetness of the rice gradually covers the tongue! The spiciness and the strength of 16% alcohol can be felt in the latter half of the bottle, but the overall flavor is moderate. I think I have not had such a clear sake since I drank the highest quality sake of "Akagisan" (12,000 yen for 720ml)! It is as pure as a gentle breeze. It quietly accompanies you from the beginning to the end. The taste is the very embodiment of "elegance. It is a good bottle to drink by itself or to enjoy as a food wine! Enjoy it carefully over the course of the day👍.

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

Japanese>English

. Degrees of alcohol 15% alc. At the time, the mainstream sake was light and dry, but we thought it would be interesting to create a sake that was the complete opposite of the current trend. The name "Shinigami" (god of death) was chosen to reflect the opposite image of the sake, as it is the opposite of the current trend. Flavor like Shaoxing sake. It has a rich, mature taste, The flavor is robust and acidic! Golden in color. ☆4.0

X3 Rose" by Kinmon Akita Shuzo This Junmai sake uses three times the amount of koji rice as usual and is blended with ancient rice to give it a rich, original rice flavor. The addition of ancient rice (red rice) to the white rice gives it a beautiful rosé color. The taste is characterized by the mellow sweetness of rice and refreshing acidity like strawberries. Rice polishing ratio: 70%. Alcohol content: 15%. Sake type: Junmai-harazake (pure rice sake) Ingredients: Rice, Rice malt Rice used: Mencoina

Japanese>English

Today at the end of my friend's wedding party. From the Kinmon Akita Sake Brewery in Daisen City🍶. Junmai sake made with three times the usual amount of koji rice. It was a delicious sake in a glass of wine with a caramel-like sweet and bitter taste 👏👏.

Japanese>English

Rich aroma with strong acidity. It has a dry taste with a sourness and alcohol like a green plum wine with a little sweetness that is not fully ripe. Although the alcohol content is only 16%, it is quite strong. It is a bit harsh and you may get tired of drinking it. Production date: December 2023 Release date: December 15, 2023

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.

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 😋.

At home. Osaka Kawachinagano Amano Sake, the first time I️ had this sake. This brewery is located on Koya Kaido, and the surrounding area has a nice atmosphere. It was my first time to visit there, but it must be a famous place. The taste was quite dry, and it was a taste for adults.

Amano Sake Grand Sake Party(*) This is Amano sake's summer product. It has the core strength of the original sake and is spicy! I think it falls into the slightly dry category Amano Sake is not seen at all within the range of my activities. I was surprised to see Kuninonaga Junmai Ginjo on sale at a nearby 7-Eleven.

Purchased at Okadaya, Nagoya Rice used is Yume-Ginko from Nagoya This sake has a slightly sweet and robust flavor. It is not so fresh, but has a mildly sharp and clean aftertaste. Overall, it has a calmness that makes it a versatile all-around food sake. This is a good sake for ministry.

This will also be the first time I have dreamed of a hawk. The first aroma is a modest sweet aroma. In the mouth, it has a rich sweetness like ripe fruit and the umami of rice. It also has a sweet overtone like that of ripe fruit. It is similar to Chochin, but darker and tastier. I love Nagoya's sake.

Japanese>English

New brewery opening I went to Takanomiyate - Akihamadaka, an event to enjoy the dreams of a hawk. I arrived the day before for this event because I had plans in Nagoya the next day. I know it is a lot of work to hold an event, but we had a very delicious, enjoyable, and happy time. Thank you very much. Thank you very much! We enjoyed the delicious food. The sake had a flavor that went well with Nagoya rice, and it was thicker than any other sake I have ever had. I am going to eat miso nikomi udon now while savoring the lingering flavor!

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.

I bought it because my child's name has the character for virtue in it lol. I was surprised by the color when I put it in a glass. The best thing about this product is the fact that it is made in Indonesia. I'm not sure if I've had enough, so I opened this bottle, but my face is starting to go numb 🤪 lol

The 3rd Bishu Competition 2025 Kansai ④ Sake I wanted to try at this event with Diachiku and Brooklyn kura I was curious about this brand that Nemuchi-san had tried at a Japanese sake festival before. It seems that the label has become more fashionable since the new owner took over, with an eye on export. A young man with two earrings explained about the sake to us, and we wondered if he was the brewer. Fresh, gassy, sweet and delicious. There seems to be no distributor in the Kansai region, so I sincerely hope that some of them will carry it! I told my neighbor's liquor store to go to Tokumasa Sou next time, but he said he had a connection with Sakaimachi 😅.

Purchased at a roadside station in Nagano. Alkuma is cute. The aroma is apple-like. It says "Don't drink too much", but I can drink it like water. O my God, Alkuma! In a way, I'm glad it's a cup of sake. The sweetness and umami are asserted in a moderate way, so it is easy to drink.
