I couldn't go anywhere during the second half of GW because I had to stay at home. So on the last day, I will just enjoy the feeling of traveling with this cup of sake. It has an alcoholic taste, but it is sweet and easy to drink. Since it is a Hokkaido sake, we also had some delicacies that Men-chan gave us. Thank you very much.

Japanese>English

A souvenir from the expedition, a cup of sake officially approved by the Asahiyama Zoo, is opened. The illustration is by Michiko Abe, an illustrator active in Asahikawa. There are three kinds of illustrations, and this one is "Hokkaido (northern land)". The clear acidity and pleasant umami are impressive, and the taste is refreshing with a hint of the northern land. There are three different illustrations, so I would like to collect the other two and display them on my next trip. Delicious ❗️

Rice used is Yoshino Gin-no-sato 1/3rd bottle of Yoshino Sake Rice Project Kitamura Sake Brewery, probably for the first time. It has a good amount of sweetness, spiciness, and acidity. The alcohol content is a little high. The aftertaste is also crisp, and it is good that it does not get dull. As expected of Nara's sake, the level of the ministry is high.

Japanese>English

The famous sake from Yoshino, Nara, Shojo no Oni👹san series❣️. The founder of Shugendo, Yakushokaku, was served by a couple of demons: the husband demon was Zendo Oni (the former demon) and the wife was Myodo Oni (the latter demon). This is the first time I bought a sake named after that Zendo Oni 😆. I was originally under the impression that Shoto was a fruity, easy-drinking sake, but this Zendo Oni is so rich and full-bodied that it is hard to believe it is a Jungin of Gohyakumangoku 😳. It has a nice melon feeling and a full-bodied flavor reminiscent of Tamagawa❣️. By the third day, the ripe fruit-like sweetness is added, and the unique flavor is irresistible 😇 I'm enjoying it chippy, chippy, chippy😇 All that crosses our path are demons 👹. But if it's demons like this, I want to see them again. I wonder if his wife will be the next demon (not my wife 😅)

Hinohikari. The richness of the rice flavor is gutsy. Slightly hiney feeling.

On Sunday, I visited the Taste of Morita Co. This is the family brewery of Akio Morita, the founder of Sony. I was attracted by the Aji no Yakata limited edition and bought a bottle. It tasted a little sweeter than I expected and was easier to drink than I expected. 1,650 yen

Japanese>English

(I was tired from eating too much rich food, so I decided to balance it out with some light sake, so I bought a bottle of Nenohi from Yamaya. Nenohi is thin, as was the case with the cup sake. The light flavor is clear but still has the presence of light flavor to make the most of it! Today, I overcame my fear of the new koro and went to a hot spring! The treasure of Amagasaki, Tsukiji Ebisu Spa is still wonderful! I got the locker number 17 and the BIGBOSS number 1! Then I went to Ohmononokunushi Shrine and wished to become a big shot! Then we went to the recently excavated Nozato no Yu! It was a light spring! After that, we went to Hashigawa Shrine along the Yodogawa River, which was also nice!

Japanese>English

The ginjo aroma was very good, with a hint of melon, and it was very easy to drink, with a light, refreshing taste and a hint of sweetness at the end. If you like sweet sake, you will love the taste.

Bought in Aizu (No.1) This is the first time to buy this brand. It was delicious and had a Junmai-shu feel to it.

Japanese>English

The rice is Fukunokou. This is also not found in Kansai, so I bought it. The aroma is slightly pineapple. It is fruity but a little dry and refreshing. Slight sweetness. I was told it was dry, but I didn't feel it was that dry. It's light, but it may not be enough for some people.

Japanese>English

We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/.

Holly in Aomori, Japan. First of all, ❣️ bottles are cute (((o(♡´▽`♡)o)))) I bought it thinking it would taste gorgeous. I bought it thinking it would taste gorgeous, but it didn't. It's a calm and sweet 😋. I had it with 🥒 and myoga 🎶. I'll use the jar as a single flower vase 🌸

Japanese>English

As the brand name suggests, the acidity of this sake is like a breeze that passes through you comfortably. It is delicious, but it may taste even better on the second day when it has mellowed after being exposed to air.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a liquor store in Hisayama-cho, Kasuya-gun (Just after opening the bottle) Drink cold Clear and colorless Mild aroma Fruity sweetness spreads in the mouth. The taste is sharp but not dry. The aftertaste is clear. It goes well with sakadaki (a dish made from fermented soybeans). When warmed up, it becomes more dry and cloying. (15 days after opening the bottle). Warm to lukewarm The sweet ginjo aroma, similar to that of fruit, becomes stronger. Taste as cold as it is. Very good with cod roe. To be heated Grain aroma similar to corn becomes stronger. Loses its sweetness and richness and becomes very light. Even when heated, it does not return to the same sweetness as cold or lukewarm sake, and has a light flavor.

At Kaki-numa. I'm not sure how many times I've heard of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea. Lucky👍 I bought a bottle of autumn wine 😋 for good measure. Just the right amount of age! The flavor of the food tickles my autumnal appetite 😅 It's the season for good drinks and snacks 😁

Japanese>English

I drank the nigori of natural sake 🤗🤗. No, no, too much nigori! LOL. It's a doburoku 😳. It's as cloudy as milk😅😅. The taste...I thought it would taste more like sakekasu...but it's surprisingly refreshing despite this color and sludge...👍👍. It's like a cold sake lees soup without the smell 😊. If you sprinkle a little salt and pepper, it would be like a vichyssoise 🍲.

Japanese>English

The rice-derived umami and richness are the first sensations, leaving a lingering aftertaste with a hint of bitterness. The impression was heavy for a sake with a low alcohol content.

(*´ω*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this sake because it is made from Koshihikari 🙋The rice taste is perfect and the aroma is good 😀 It is a more royal strong style sake than nowadays 😀.

Japanese>English

Since it's spring🌸, I think I'll have another bottle of sake with spring in it. I bought a bottle of Shunshin by Nishide Sake Brewery in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. I've been curious about this sake for a while but never got around to it. I will have it with boiled flounder 🙏. I thought it might be a bit strong, but it wasn't. It has a nice richness, sweetness, acidity, and a mellow feeling 😆. It's a bit like a lighter version of Tamagawa. As the label says, I preferred it at room temperature rather than chilled 👍

Japanese>English

I saw it for the first time at a department store tasting sale, so I bought it. It's not listed on the label, but according to the brewer's description, it's unfiltered undiluted sake. It says "light nigori" but it's not cloudy at all (laughs). It's refreshing and easy to drink. The acidity in the second half is impressive.

The first Izuhazakura 🌸 fragrance fruity 🌸 sake rice "Snow Goddess" is new to me... sweet and bitter but clear and refreshing... doesn't interfere with food... delicious 😋♪ I'm having a little bit of it with shellfish 🐚 sashimi as a side dish 😋♪

Japanese>English

(*sigh*) 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I haven't had Dewazakura in a while 😀. The aroma is mild and when you drink it, you can feel the flavor of the rice and it's mild 😋 then it goes through the nose. It's also very sharp. I've never had a Dewazakura before.

Japanese>English

Second time around? This time I didn't feel any fruit. The aroma feels fruity, though, It is very easy to drink. I am also very drunk,

8 points (wife: 7 points) Alcohol content: 14 degrees Celsius Sake meter: +2 Acidity: 1.2 Sake rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio : 60 Yeast : Nadeshiko flower yeast Where to buy : Japanese Restaurant Kusabanaraku (Nagasaki City) Slightly floral melon-like top The same fruity aroma as the first sip, a moderate sweetness, and the umami of rice spread with a soft acidity and are quickly quenched by a slight bitterness and the dryness of the alcohol. The dryness of the alcohol gives this sake a good sharpness in spite of its aroma, giving it a classical impression in the latter half of the bottle. It is more suitable as a mid-meal drink than as a stand-alone sake. It went well with grilled sea bream, various sashimi, simmered pork, simmered sea bream, fried fish, and other dishes made by my wife's brother.

Japanese>English

This is the first time I drink this brand. It's clean with little miscellaneous flavors, and there's something about it that makes me want to try other kinds.

Japanese>English

Muscat-like aroma. The mouthfeel is clean and refreshing, and while I thought it would be modern, it gradually takes on a classic flavor. The aftertaste is sharp. It is neither modern nor classic, which is also good.
