This Sake is very interesting. It has a citrus flavor like grapefruit. The flavor really cleanses the pallet.

Junmai nama-shu YAMADANISHIKI 90 Rice polishing ratio 90%❗️ This is the challenge sake of Michiko Urasato, the female toji of Yui. Yamada Nishiki is brewed at 90% polishing ratio without polishing. The taste of the rice is rich and intense❗️, but there is a light fizzy feeling. There is also a little bit of orage mixed in. This is why it is milder and softer in the mouth than I expected. The aftertaste is refreshing. It's amazing. Michiko Urasato, Toji 💡. I had it with ginger yaki, and it was delicious. The sake and side dishes go well together😆. I've heard that if you let it sit for a few days, you'll get a different taste of the rice, so I stopped at halfway today. I heard it's also good at different temperatures.

O(^o^)o Sem Sem Sem Sem Sem Sem It is the second day of the cup life. Today is Ichinoya in Fukui Prefecture. I've had Akatsuki and Tsukishibijin before, but today I'm drinking a cup of Kamisen. Room temperature on a hot day. It was delicious 😀.

(*´ч ` *)🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we got a bottle of Ichinotani, a sake from our neighbor Fukui Prefecture 😀. I bought it because of the old-fashioned, hard-core label 😚The specs are also very Chinese, 35% Yamadanishiki daiginjo😤, but the price is reasonable💰They really only have one bottle, but it seems that only the store of one of their customers has a 4-goupe bottle 👍. The aroma is mild and ginjo like 🍑😊Clear sweetness and refreshing acidity🥰The aftertaste is clean and disappears quickly😍✨It's a beautiful sake that goes down smoothly🥳It's a delicious sake😆👍✨

I went to a liquor store in Gunma Prefecture for the first time and bought this bottle after much hesitation. I kind of like the word "Aizan" (❤️). And I also liked the taste.

I've had Kanazawa-ya from the same brewery at an outing, but this is my first time drinking it. I had never heard of rice called "Takaneminori" before. It has a fresh aroma with a hint of cemedine. The impression is that it fades out after a pause from the refreshing feeling, followed by a gutsy sweet flavor. It is a new sake, but it has a strong umami.

☆☆☆☆☆ Sweet ripeness. It's good with a slight old wine feel.

It is Minokiku Hojo. It is a normal sake made from 100% Yamada Nishiki. It is a little sweet and has a fruity taste. The price is 1760 yen (tax included) and it is the best sake in Japan. It is said that this sake is designed to be the best sake that you can drink in the evening. That's right 😋.

Japanese>English

The 43rd sake brewery in Gifu Prefecture. Gyokusendo Sake Brewery's main brand in Yoro Town. Purchased at a roadside station in Yoro Town. It is made from 100% Hida Homare, Gifu Prefecture's preferred rice for sake brewing. The aroma is an apple-like ginjo aroma. It has a weak acidity and a weak sweetness from the umami of the rice. The lingering umami flavor lingers until the end.

Japanese>English

Oh, neat. My apologies for not expecting it. I like the seriousness of the product.

Yasube poured sake from the Sudo Honke, the oldest sake brewery in Japan. The sake was refreshing and had a rich umami flavor. It was a sake that I would like to try drinking warmed.

The 5th Shinmae Festival, the 5th Kanno Thanksgiving Mie Shinshu Matsuri (15) Mie Nishiki, which we have not seen very often. The Mie Nishiki on the back label seems to be limited to Morishita Sake Shop. I think bouken-san drank it before. Mie Nishiki Chugutori Mie Nishiki Super Dry Junmai Ginjo (special order limited edition) The taste is mainly sour, with a slight yogurtiness, and a pungent aftertaste that gives it a clean, classic feel. I also saw several other limited editions with back labels from other breweries at Morishita Sake Shop. According to a group I met, Morishita Sake Brewery is in charge of this new sake festival in the fall, and Akafuku in the spring.

Japanese>English

This is Mie Nishiki, a local sake from Iga, which we also bought in Okage Yokocho. It is a light and dry sake, perfect for a mealtime drink and easy to drink. When I saw the words "limited to Ise-Shima", I was tempted to buy it.

I bought it at a product show the other day. I had never heard of this brand, but I tasted it and liked it. It was 19 degrees, so I drank it lightly on the rocks. I paired it with stewed daikon radish and shellfish sashimi as the cold weather deepened. It was moderately dry and went well with sashimi.

Junmai Nigori Sake, domestic rice 75%, 20

Japanese>English

Buy at the warehouse 1650 yen / 720ml The store had moved to the place where it was founded and had a beautiful exterior and interior. However, we seemed to have visited before the grand opening, so the products were not lined up and were brought to us from the back of the store. We were told to drink our brewery's sake hot, so we tried heated sake for the first time. It was an aged golden color with an aroma of honey. When I first drank it, I was choked up, but when I regained my breath and drank it, the richness of the sake came through. Unlike the aroma, the spiciness of the wine is more pronounced, but as the temperature drops, the sweetness comes out. I enjoy the change in flavor, and I feel like I don't get drunk at all.

Junmai Ginjo 🍶 Henohenomoheji 😅 All of it is made from Yamada Nishiki 🌾 without agricultural chemicals in its own fields. Fairly yellow, strong acidity, matured. Daruma Masamune-like. It's a bit like Daruma Masamune. Surprisingly young freshness as you drink it ✨ matched with grilled wagyu beef ichibo 🐂👍 Umi and @Takadanobaba 20230516

Japanese>English

This is an apparently hard-to-find Akizuka sake. Since I had already had a draft of this sake before, I had to unlock the results of a terribly maniacal drinking comparison. I chilled it. It has a sweet aroma that harmonizes graininess and a sense of maturity. The modest mouthfeel reveals the clean acidity and caramel flavors typical of the sake's origins, and the full-bodied sweetness and rich umami slowly permeate the taste buds. It is delicious both lukewarm and hot.

This sake was a gift from a junior colleague (son of a liquor store owner). It has been a long time since I've had a classic, THE old man's dry sake. There is a sweetness of rice in the back, and it is refreshing. Not bad. After the sweet and juicy sake, we had a glass of So-no-Sato. Not bad. I've only been at work for a little while after the new year, but the three-day weekend is wearing on me. Sake heals me 😄.

Japanese>English

It was a gift from a junior colleague at work. I received it last year and remember that it had quite a punchy 🤜 flavor. It has a faint smell of cemedine, and a somewhat chemical 🧪 atmosphere in the mouth, but it has a nice, clean taste that doesn't interfere with the meal 😊. It's only 3 days old and it's getting sweeter and tastier 🙌 I got it in a bottle, so I'm thinking of trying some heated sake with ✖️ on the back label 🧐.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki. The rice polishing ratio is 35%, is it the flagship sake of the brewery? It has a solid ginjo aroma, and while it is basically light and dry, it also has a mild sweetness. There is little miscellaneous taste and the mouthfeel is good. The aftertaste has a good accent of alcohol and a solid flavor. Overall, it is a good sake with a cohesive taste that makes you realize again that the alcoholic version is better for the Daiginjo class.
