It is rich and sweet with a dry taste. It has a high alcohol content of 17 degrees. Freshly opened and cold, there was a roughness. When the temperature rises a little, full-bodied sweetness♩Pop label was also an eye-catching bottle!

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 had wanted to drink it for a long time, but the timing was never quite right... The manager said it was his favorite drink in the restaurant! It is a pale yellow color with silver tints and a hint of green. It has a spicy top note with a hint of alcohol, but the aroma is very refreshing, perhaps because of the acidity. When you drink it, the slightly carbonated texture on the tongue is pleasant. There is not much noticeable aroma, but the acidity gives it a refreshing mouthfeel. It may not have much sweetness to begin with, but the acidity helps to make it dry. Despite its dryness, it has a strong flavor, which is probably due to the strong umami that can be tasted from start to finish. Dry sake is usually considered "spicy," but perhaps because of the strong umami, it does not feel too spicy. Interestingly, it is a sake that does not have much bitterness, which may be why it is so light and easy to drink despite its 17% alcohol content. This is seriously very, very good! I wouldn't say it's for everyone, but I think it's a must-try for sake drinkers who like umami!

Low-polished & sake yeast yeast As expected, it has a strong punch! The aftertaste is also bitter and punchy. ‼️ It has a beautiful mouthfeel and a citrusy bitterness at the finish. It is easy to drink with just the right amount of sweetness. It was a unique and delicious sake with many different expressions. ❣️

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki After opening the bottle, I wondered if it would have been better if I had let it sit longer. I regret it after opening the bottle. Even as it is, it has a great balance of fruity and powerful, with a clean dry finish. ‼️ However, it seemed to have a lot of potential to improve! It was delicious, but it was a waste of time!

Junmai 🍶. Hot sake. about 55 degrees. ♨️ Sweet umami. Slightly dry aftertaste, not mellow. Mellow and gentle. ☺️ My wife says it's like a rice ball 🍙. Full of rice flavor. choinomi KATSU@Takasaki station 20240204

It's a little bit more expensive, but It's a very elegant, sweet drink! It's kind of like the sweetness of a muscat! It's 500ml, so it'll be drunk in no time!

It's foamy! I'm sure it's just cider or something. Mild sweetness, or is it the sweetness of the cage? Clear aftertaste! It's delicious 😋.

Rice used is unknown The whooper swan print is beautiful. Most sake with the name "Josen" has the taste of "the best sake," but this sake is well-balanced and has a beautiful mouthfeel. The umami can be felt gradually, and it is not sticky, so you can enjoy it easily. It is a good sake. ❗️ The 92nd cup of sake

Japanese>English

A gift from Sawanoizumi The Jun Dai I drank before was a Miyagi sake, beautifully light and dry, and I felt (selfishly) the earnestness of the toji (master brewer). I had an image of a modest, but firm, light, dry Kura. And then there is this special pure Sawanoizumi. It does not have much of a topping aroma, but the mouthfeel is surprisingly sweet and umami! It is sweet to the level of the Hitakami, and the robust umami is also very tasty! It has a light acidity and bitterness, followed by a refreshing sharpness. It's good! This is good! The price is relatively cheap, about 1300 yen for a four-pack, but it is convincing enough! Ishikoshi Brewery. I underestimated you. Sorry about that. Sake is so interesting because there are new discoveries even at the foot of the table like this! Thank you very much!

Honjozo 🍶 fresh stored sake✨ A good, albeit alsodense, taste. Dry aftertaste. Slightly bitter. Mild when paired with salmon. ☺️ Sweetness when paired with sea bream. It's delicious. Spicy when served with chawanmushi (steamed egg custard). Swordfish stew is the best match👍I enjoyed changing the taste to match the meal 😆. Guest House Shimodoso @ Minamisanriku 20230827

Three staggering drunks strolling to the next restaurant🐾🐈🐾 We drank only our favorites at the first restaurant, so the second one was Aomori sake (๑🍶๑🍶🍶´-) Yum! Fruity! I decided to go to ❣️ because I had never had it before and because of the words "fruity". Exactly! Aomori means scallops 🥰. This is the first time I actually ate them there 🎶. It tastes gentler than the ones I make myself ☺️ I'll use it as a reference for the next time I make it.

First UGO series: ❗️ The aroma is modest: ❗️ In the mouth it has a 🍑 like sweetness and aroma😊. Complex taste but nice👍 A little more sourness and a clean aftertaste 🤔. The overall aroma and taste is to my liking. It was a very tasty sake😍 I would like to try other UGO as well ‼️

. I guess this one falls into the swishy category too 🤔. Light sweetness and lightness of the moment 😋. It might be good for those who say they are not good at sake!

Ψ(∇)Ψ🍶🍶🍶🍶 This is the first brand of Fukui Prefecture's Fuku-Chitose. It has a mild aroma and when you drink it, it is light and dry and crisp. It is a delicious taste✨.

Japanese>English

The first bottle we opened at the beginning of the New Year was a bottle of "Fuku Chitose Namae Junmai Dry Taste" brewed with the prefecture's original sake rice "Sakahomare", which was grown in Fukui. This is the third time this season that sake made with Sakahomare has been brewed. The sake brewery says that this is the third year they have brewed this sake, not the third year of honesty, but the third year of confidence. The warming sake was recommended, so we tried it lukewarm to finish the saké. The slight warmth of the lukewarm sake matched the umami of the sake, making it a perfect saké to drink with a hot pot on a cold day!

Lid is stiff. Thin lactic acidity, slightly sweet fruit-like smell. Lemon and plum-like acidity emerges from the thin rice mouthfeel, finishing with rice-like flavor acidity and a hint of sweetness.

The aroma is mild 😄and the palate is smooth, fresh, and light 🤔, and it finishes with a refreshing acidity 😚I couldn't really tell the difference between it and the Hohanami 🤣 but it was a delicious sake 🥳.

This brewery was closed in April this year due to the effects of Corona and other factors. It is said that there is no reopening schedule, so it is practically closed. The official site has disappeared, and it looks like the company has been sold. It would be nice if the company that bought it would let it reopen... It's a rich, umami type that's different from the general image of Niigata's sake. It has a sweetness from the rice. As it has won a gold medal, I'm sure this sake would be delicious warmed. It also has a creamy sweetness.

Echigo Den-emon Toyosaka The nose has a strong grape-like aroma. When poured into a glass, it gives off a fizzy sensation. When you take a sip, you are first surprised by the very strong acidity. It is not often that such a strong acidity comes out on the whole surface of a sake. After a delay, a moderate sweetness arrives, and the palate is filled with a lingering bitter astringency. The impression is light, fresh and dry. Overall, it is well-balanced and never gets old. The Mishaguchi I drank once before was full of sweetness and punchiness, and I thought it was a brewery that specialized in making such sake, but this time, the impression of acidity was strong anyway. It seemed that Mishaguchi is not a one-size-fits-all brewery, and I was eager to try their other sake as well. The sake is brewed in very small quantities by a single person, and as the label indicates, one can sense the tremendous care that goes into making it. The price is a little high, but that is acceptable if the sake is this unique. In these days when it seems that there are many sake with a somewhat similar taste, this is a bottle that makes you happy with its unique impact.
