🏠 Drinking ( -̀ -́ )୨⚑︎゛ I didn't care for the aroma. Crisp ‼️ and no bitterness. Maybe a light acidity when paired with veggies😊. For the entrée... Yakitori with sauce made with rice wine 🐓. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it with vegetables Rice used, Miyamanishiki Yeast, Kyokai 701 Alcohol 13%. Personal preference among 4 types 4️⃣ I received a bottle of sake that has been stored at room temperature for a wacky long time... I tried to drink it but it was old sake ( ´-̥̥̥̥̥ω̥̥̥̥̥̥`) I got about 7 kinds of sake including Tasake and Jyushiyo... What a waste 😭😭😭 The sauce made with Tasake was delicious though 🥲.

The second drink at Marukoma was my first "Koshu". It is light and crisp with a pleasant lingering aftertaste. The second sake was "Koshu", which is also from Niigata but has a different flavor from the "Hokusetsu" that we drank for the first sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

This Sake is light and not too sweet. There are herbal flavor notes like licorice and mint. The finish is clean with a light mineral aftertaste. I am told this is a limited, seasonal Sake.

. Sake rice: Niigata-grown Senjyuraku Polishing ratio: 55 Sake degree: +4 Acidity: 1.1 Sake made by Asahi Shuzo, the brewer of Kubota At "Honokuni" in the main station of Toyohashi Fruity, no sourness or bitterness at all. Flavor is clean and quite weak! ☆ 3.5

ᐢ˶🍶🍶🍶+ Today I opened another cup of Kamotsuru cup that I bought on my business trip to Hiroshima 😀. The aroma is mild😊and the mouthfeel is soft, with a mild sweetness and a strong sense of rice flavor and sweetness 😚 It is a delicious traditional sake with a sharp aftertaste 🥳.

Japanese>English

Drinking out after a long time. At a skewer shop in the neighborhood. After the beer, we drank Kamotsuru with Hiya. The aroma has a strong alcohol feeling, but the taste is soft and refreshing. However, the sweetness, umami and sourness were not felt so much, and there was no depth. I was happy to be able to drink out after a long time.

Japanese>English

Ask for other all-you-can-drink options! First up is Kamotsuru. You don't see this kind of sake very often. I love this kind of Showa-era atmosphere that you can sometimes find. I don't remember the taste. Thank you very much for the sake!

Bought directly from the Mukho Sake Brewery... Aroma: Slightly cemedine? As the label on the back says, it's a solid and heavy sake. It is like a local sake, and the bitterness in the aftertaste is a bit of a problem, but...it soaks into your guts...it goes well with strong flavored snacks...smoked hoya and stewed tuna...I enjoy it with a little bit of it....

Japanese>English

This is also a gift from my youngest son... a local Chichibu sake from my hometown of Chichibu, Saitama. I know you may not like it, but...it goes well with Chichibu's hormone...and today's snack was...freshly kama-age shirasu (dried young sardines) from Miura, Kanagawa Prefecture.

Japanese>English

The third one is Mukho Masamune, next door. Rokkaku-san was also visiting 😅 Fruity, a little sour, but delicious 😋.

Sake comparison at home! We chose 3 kinds of sake from "Fukumitsuya", a long-established sake brewery in Kanazawa. Fukumasa Munune Junmai Dry, Nama Zume. This was the first sake made with black malted rice. I felt a bit salty, but I wondered if this was the richness found in sake made with "black koji"? Wind, Water, Man, Junmai 9 It is a junmai sake with an alcohol content of 9 degrees Celsius and a refreshing taste. I would like to drink it with pasta or Italian food! Fukumaso Sake: Hyoketsu Nama-Shu Dry With a sake alcohol content of +10%, it has a very strong sake taste! I would like to drink it with a salty meal and sip it while neutralizing the taste. It was interesting to compare the different types of sake and to see the difference between them. ☺️

Yahiko 1

Yahiko 3

Yahiko Sake Brewery in Yahiko Village, Niigata Prefecture. The main brand was "Echino Hakusetsu," but it appears that "Yahiko" will be the main brand from now on. This Junmai Ginjo is also made from Yamadanishiki produced in Yahiko Village, and is a good sake, not fruity, but calm and soft. Yahiko Village is where my mother is from, and I spent a lot of time there as a child when I was sent to my mother's home, so it is like a second home to me. Yahiko Shrine, the first shrine in Echigo, is located there.

Japanese>English

Yahiko's regular sake, Aozae, by Yahiko Shuzo Sake rice is Koshibuki produced in Yahiko village. Aozae has a refreshing, watery quality. Aozae is a perfect evening sake without any peculiarities. Yahiko Shrine is the largest shrine in Echigo Province. My mother is from Yahiko Village and I used to stay at her parents' house in Yahiko Village when I was a child, so Yahiko is like my second home.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Koshibuki produced in Yahiko The long-awaited "Yahiko" brand I was surprised to learn that there is a store in my hometown that carries this brand. I heard that the brewery has been reorganized and the taste has become even better. But still, this is out of the ordinary! Overall, the flavor is calm. It has a fruity flavor with a clean and crisp finish. The umami can be felt with a touch of savoriness, which is a balance I like! It is high level. ‼️

Hatsugetsu Yoshino🌕. Soft sweetness, gentle acidity, a little bitterness. Easy to drink and delicious 😋. One that makes me glad I'm in the Shinshu Jizake Hanpukai ✨ This finally completes my post up to May 🙌! I have a little more time today, so I'll get to it 😆.

Japanese>English

The second bottle was the remainder of the Tozawa Hitogokochi from the previous Shinshu Kamerei. The third bottle is here ‼️again Nagano sake 😋. I️️️tsukiyoshi no ‼️. The toji is a woman! Nagano sake is delicious 😋. I thought it was sweet, but it seems pretty dry 😋I think it's a great sake for a meal 👍Drinking it chilled is a great way to get a kick out of it👍. I heard one of the hyenas was today's No. 1 😆.

Japanese>English

Weekday off for lunchtime drinking. Izakaya in Akabane. I heard from a junior colleague that the hegi soba (buckwheat noodles) is delicious, so I visited the izakaya. First, I had Tsukiyoshino's orikagarami. The taste is gentle, elegant, and attractive.

Although it's next door, I haven't had Osaka's sake yet. I was thinking of Akishika or Katanozakura for Osaka, but I found this one at AEON today while shopping. There is no outstanding sweetness or spiciness, but a well-balanced taste. It's a good sake for eating. When I paired it with yuba and fried eggplant with sesame oil, I felt like I could drink as much as I wanted 😋. Good sake in the neighborhood too👍.

I have never seen this label before. It is a bit old and peculiar, but overall it is a delicious sake.
