Flesh! It has a wine nouveau-like feeling. Is it because it's the first time it's been squeezed?

Japanese>English

Fuji Day Morning Squeeze! I've been drinking it since last year. It's a very delicious sake. I'm looking forward to another year!

Japanese>English

The light blue color with goldfish, fireworks, sunflowers, and wind chimes is cool, and the fluent white font further expresses the sense of sake. I imagined it would have a greenish smell because of the name "Numazu, Shizuoka," but it was crisp or smooth? But it was crisp or smooth? I was expecting it to have a greenish taste, but it was crisp and smooth.

At a soba noodle restaurant, my husband had a little share of the drink.â Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15 Classic taste of rice flavor. It has a twangy feeling, but when drunk with chicken tempura, it tastes just right and is delicious ♡♡♡♡♡♡. The 2nd and 3rd pictures are paintings that are OK to photograph ✨.

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown It is a unique sake. The palate has a moderate sweetness, but not so much that it can be described as dry. The umami spreads slowly, The acidity is very effective and tight. It is not peculiar, but it is a type that cannot be tasted anywhere else. I like this balance and sense of taste. Interesting sake, I found it: ❣️

Japanese>English

This is also our first time to visit this brewery. I'm glad to see that they have a lot of unpasteurized sake. I completely forgot about the bad things at work and went into drinking mode. Just like the label on the back, this sake has a lot of flavor, but it's not heavy. Even though it was nigori, it didn't feel sloppy. It was an easy to drink sake.

I was not going to buy it...but...Mr. Tree Frog...bought it without a second thought...55% polished rice...sweet rice aroma...sweet taste...sweet taste...yes! The bitter aftertaste from the sweet rice aroma... and the sweetness on the palate! I can feel the delicious taste of rice! Delicious... Sake is so deep! This encounter is the best part of sake, and I cherish every encounter...

Japanese>English

grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) On the way back from a trip to Fukushima. At Morishu in Koriyama station. We also stopped by Izumiya and had a good time. Mild and dry. The name "Miharukoma" is derived from "Miharu-koma," a wooden local toy, which is a traditional craft of Miharu-cho as well as "Takizakura.

Japanese>English

Purchased on a trip to Miharu last fall, it was one of the last remaining bottles at the liquor store. It has been aged for a long time, and was bottled only a year ago. The color is golden like mirin (sweet sake), and it has the peculiar taste of aged sake. The alcohol content is 19 degrees, which makes it a super baby sake! Serve this with squid with wasabi!

As the plump sparrow label suggests The soft and gentle sweetness is impressive. Yet, it has an aftertaste that cuts through quickly. It was a bottle suitable for the New Year.

Japanese>English

Irido-cloud in Italian. The refreshing acidity is typical of summer sake. The subtle umami of rice is excellent. It is perfect as a food sake.

Homecoming Series 13 Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture is home to Shiina Sake Brewery's Fukushin. It is a pure Ibaraki local sake made from 100% Hitanishiki produced in the prefecture! The specs are a special junmai sake with a rice polishing ratio of 55%. While the aroma is subdued, the taste is a robust sake that hits the right notes of rice! The aroma has nuances of young melon and white bean flour, the acidity is not strong, and the taste is easy to drink with a medium attack and a slightly long finish. For my taste, it is my favorite type. It is too hot to warm up today, but I will add my comments on heated sake later.

Japanese>English

Tomikushin's summer sake, which was absent last year due to lack of Miyamanishiki This year's resurrection is a special junmai, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake brewed with Hitanishiki Ogawa yeast instead of Miyamanishiki. Soft and gentle taste and aroma. It has a good ripeness and full-bodied flavor. It has a cocoa flavor that is somehow delicious! It is easy to drink and has no curdle. I heard that this year, they tried to use Ogawa yeast for the sake competition and missed out on a prize, but I hope they keep trying!

It was a gift ✨. New politics again! First time for Uhei Sato It's so delicious ✨. It's a little fizzy and sweet, just like Shinsei. It's very easy to drink, but... You can feel the flavor of the rice well ☺️. I was going to drink it for my birthday, but I couldn't resist the temptation of Shinsei.

Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka⑤. The booth of "Kaze no Sato" in Ehime. After suffering tremendous damage from the torrential rains in western Japan in 2018, the brewery decided to revive itself with the support of local people, fellow members of the sake brewers association, and volunteers. The brewery has recovered through crowdfunding and other means, and this one is also not to be found in the Kansai region. Junmai ◉ Junmai The aroma is a bit peculiar. It may be an off-flavor. The flavor is firm and a bit nutty. They say it is recommended to be heated. Junmai Ginjo Not too much sweetness and umami, but a mild acidity. Junmai Daiginjo Uzu The aroma is a little subdued, and the sweetness and umami are refreshing, the type of sake that goes well with river fish. Junmai Ginjo-shu Sakurahime A junmai ginjo-shu brewed with Sakurahime yeast. It has a clear, sweet and umami taste with a clean and refreshing aftertaste. When I told him that Sakurahime yeast is not cherry blossom, he said yes, it is a flower called delphinium. The Ehime booth was set up by the sake brewers' association, and everyone was wearing the same shirt, light pink vest and pants, which bouken-san said looked like Junrei.

Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - A Spectacle of Sake and Food from Shikoku - (5) Ehime Prefecture from here Sake brewery severely damaged by torrential rain in western Japan. They have made a comeback thanks to crowdfunding and support from many people! There are no distributors in Kansai, but there are some restaurants that deal directly with the brewery. We drank Kaze no Sato Junmai-shu Matsuyama Mitsui Polishing ratio 60%, EK-1 yeast, Sake meter value +7 I thought it would be a classic type of sake, but it's quite modern. Rice flavor and a bit of fruitiness. The taste itself is nice, but there is something strange about it... Kaze no Sato Junmai Ginjo Shizuku Ehime, Polishing ratio 50%, EK-3 yeast, Sake meter value +6 A juicy sake with a firm sweetness. A little pineapple 🍍. The most delicious 😋. Junmai Daiginjo Usu Yamadanishiki, Polishing ratio 40%, EK-1 yeast, Sake meter value +8 It was refreshing and gorgeous, but delicious! It had a berry-like flavor. All of the breweries here have high sake strength, but it didn't feel too spicy. Kaze no Sato Junmai Ginjo Sakura hime Shizuku Ehime, Polishing ratio 50%, Sake strength -4 Sakura hime yeast "Type2 Clear" is used. Slightly floral. Refreshing sweetness.

☀️ This is the first brand of sake from Ehime. There are glimpses of rice floating around 🌾. The ori is sturdy and doesn't seem to dissolve fully🤔. There is no sweetness and the rice flavor is more pronounced 🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾. In addition to the nigori, the rice is dissolved to the point of being sludgy, but thanks to the microcarbonation, it passes down the throat better🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧. I took the opportunity to order a gibier that I don't usually eat called "ginger roasted wild boar🐗" and got the most delicious meat🥩 with a mix of the sweetness of the ginger, the flavor of the rice and the bitter after taste😋.

Ueno tasted Fujioka sake. It was a blend of matured sake and a good sake, with a moderate drinking experience. It was a truly delicious sake with a flavor gently brewed over time.
