(ˊ일ˋ )🍶🍶🍶🍶 Drink and cheer 📣✊. This sake is from Shimizu Sake Brewery in Kawai-cho, Wajima, which suffered a big fire after the Noto Peninsula earthquake. The building was not completely destroyed or destroyed by fire, but there was a lot of damage 😢This is the first sake from the brewery I have ever had. The aroma is only a little, and the sake is a solid amber color🤔It says it is dry, but it has a refreshing umami taste😊The sweetness and acidity are moderate and the aftertaste is super refreshing😚✨You will not get tired of drinking it and it will go down easy😇 It's a delicious sake that can reset your palate during a meal 🥳👍.

Hearing that Kanazawa is in the midst of a tourist slump, the wife and I went to Kanazawa Oden, and I had mixed feelings about being able to easily get into a restaurant that usually has a long line. A few restaurants were closed temporarily. Kanazawa was hardly damaged by the earthquake, and I hope everyone will come to Kanazawa! Now, Senmaida, rice from Senmaida in Wajima is partially used. Although it is junmai, it is not that heavy and easy to drink. It is light and crisp. The wife also likes it. The waitress said there were only 3 bottles left and that she would not be able to drink them for a while! We hope it will come back.

Sake Rice Hokuriku Series. This time, the tori is Hyakumangoku No, developed by Ishikawa Prefecture, and the 24th brewery in the prefecture? Noto Honor. Is it a characteristic of Noto Honor or Hyakumangakkino White? It is fruity, but I think it is a classic sake.

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store event, Sake Tour. I compared it with Junmai Ginjo and was impressed with this one, so I bought it. Fresh and citrusy? It is sweet at the beginning, but the sweetness and umami come in the second half of the bottle. I have to admit that I've only seen Hyo Hyohi at department store events. Apparently, the brewery that makes the sake is in Awa City, which is different from the address on the label.

Japanese>English

Dry taste that goes well with chicken on the bone. It washes away the oil from the chicken. A quick sip with a cup of sake will reset your palate from the strong flavors of tsukune, kawa, liver, etc., and you will be ready for the next dish. You will be ready for the next dish in a flat state.

Yamada Nishiki. Gorgeous aroma. It has a light touch with a sharp spiciness behind.

The sake was a donation of 50 yen per bottle. The liquor store told me to use it as a cooking sake if it tasted bad because it might be a bit of a twist, but it's also just plain delicious.

Junmai 🍶. Watery, but strong sake 🍶. Very smooth. Good without excess or deficiency 👍. No decoration and little insistence. Can be served with a lick of rice. The ginjo aroma is only 0 and assertive, not spectacular, but that makes it gentle and easy to drink. Umi to @Takadanobaba 20221229

I drank my first 100-year-old this past February. I hope that I can enjoy sake until I am a hundred years old in a good way. This time I drank Hyakusai with a bright red label. It has a high alcohol content and is quite heavy! I think it's good to drink with Takachiyo 🆗. knowledge Rice : Tamakae Rice polishing ratio : 60 Sake Degree : +4 Acidity : 2.0 Alcohol content : 18

I got "Uonuma de sakou" as a souvenir....sold only in Minamiuonuma, the concept is good ⭕️...I couldn't find a good marriage...but I'm sipping it with yellowtail sashimi and okonomiyaki...Niigata sake 🍶 traditional light dry taste.... ...I've had it a few times...it's a good ⭕️ as a food sake 🍶! It's really good......and I realized once again that Niigata sake is very popular.......

Japanese>English

Nice to meet you too, Mr. Uonuma. The first aroma is slightly sweet. When you put it in your mouth, it is a little more modern and dry. It has a soft umami flavor that quickly fades away. This is quite a tasty dry 🍶✨. I think my dad would like it.

Uonuma limited edition sake, drunk at a store in Echigo-Yuzawa. Mellow and elegant, +1 for Gohyakumangoku. I remember it was clean and elegant.

When I hear "Tianshan", I think "Mongolian Chop"... It's not spicy, but it's very strong. It's very effective... As expected from Hirokichi Tenzan! I prefer a lighter taste, so it's a little harsh, but it works well.

Japanese>English

It is light and crisp with a refreshing aftertaste. It would go well with squid, flatfish sashimi, and nuta.

Sushi Continuing on with a little Sushi 🍣. I was surprised by this sake I opened the week before last: ‼️ I loved it 🥹💖! The fruity aroma is unlike anything I've ever tasted before! It really goes well with Tenzan Sake Brewery🍀. #TenzanShuzo #JunmaiGinjo #Yamadanishiki #Cold sake #Saga Prefecture #Low-cost Series

Miyamanishiki. The sweetness of the flavor is refreshing. The aftertaste is cohesive.

Reasonable size of 180ml😋. It's a good sake for drinking only. Take it to a barbecue or camping I think it would be fun to have an outdoor sake party! 👍 Well, it's hard to go outside 😂. It has a fresh taste with a clean and refreshing flavor.

Japanese>English

This sake was purchased at a convenience store in Saku, where I was traveling. It is fire-aged, but it has a fresh aroma and a full flavor, just like a fresh sake. I liked it so much that I decided to buy some as souvenirs.

Taste of the Ancient Times Aroma reminiscent of old wood and steamed rice. The sharp mouthfeel is followed by a tangy, pungent taste. The taste is full of alcohol with a hint of umami, and finishes with a lingering pungent and astringent aftertaste. It gives the impression of good old tradition. It tastes like an old house. We would like to support this brewery as it is the nearest brewery to Okayama. ★★★★

Japanese>English

Bizen tasted Ichinomiya sake. The labeling was a bit dubious, with no indication of rice polishing ratio or alcohol content, and "Junmai Daiginjo" pasted on the label after the fact... The taste was fresh and light. The taste was fresh, light, and refreshing.

Japanese>English

Obtained at a brewery festival. Sourness and bitterness on the palate, with a hint of ginjo. I guess it's not my favorite sake...

One day when I was about to take a rest day, my colleague came to me with a bottle of sea urchin. ‼️ My colleague's wife's father is a kelp & sea urchin fisherman! Great 😆I have no choice but to drink it 😁. The drink was also a souvenir from my boss's trip to the Chugoku region 📦️ I've only had Gozenshu and Kamishin for Okayama sake so I was looking forward to it 🎵. It has a nice firm umami and a good acidity of arabashiri 😋 It was delicious~ ✌️ We had a lot of sake from my coworkers 😅

Chiyoroku given to me by a friend. It's my first time 🙌 It's a junmai daiginjo, but it's so refreshing and easy to drink 😆. It has a moderate sweetness and a slight bitterness with a nice sharpness. The alcohol content is 16%, but you don't feel it at all😅. It was a very light summer sake 😆.

Japanese>English

Rice used: Miyamanishiki and Gin-san It has a white wine taste and a crisp, tight flavor. It is best when chilled. It is unique and went well with cream cheese ❗️.
