Local Sake at a Little Tiredness Party Sake fermented with lychee I've been wanting to try the saké because it's the first estate brewed saké in Japan. 25% spilled when I opened it😭 You should write that down... The taste is not so much sourness, but bubbly, sweet and lychee aroma. Not just the aroma, but the lychee flavor seems to come on strong. Sake feel is light. It's delicious. Easy to drink, not like 13%. I drink too much myself trying to get women to drink it... I drank it with soy milk hot pot today. Both are good. And it warms you up.

First time drinking at the Japanese Sake Festival Osaka Series (1) Last Saturday and Sunday, I participated in our family's annual Japanese Sake Festival 😀. In the summer, I participated as a volunteer staff for both days, but Kaorin, who participated as a guest on Sunday, complained that it was no fun unless we drank together, so this time I participated as a volunteer staff only on Saturday and as a guest with Kaorin on Sunday 🤣. I took Kaorin to greet the brewers at the booths of Gobashi, Taido, Akita Meizou, Mie-no-Kanmei, and others that I have known for a long time, and then we started tasting 😇. Even the volunteer staff could do a few tastings, but on Saturday I was in charge of following up with volunteers who were helping multiple breweries, so I could only taste and sample the sake from my brewery so that I could explain the flavors 🤣. Since there were no restrictions on this day, I mainly picked up sake that I hadn't tasted yet🤣. First of all, Adachi Nozou brewery who has been making craft sake in Takatsuki city complex for a while now 😀. This is their first time participating in the Japanese Sake Festival 😀. All the sakes were interesting and full of ideas that are typical of craft sake 😀. I found this lychee especially good at reproducing the taste of lychee😇. I decided to buy a coke to create a buzz... small bottle 😅.

Japanese>English

I met this one at a sake event at Osaka Takashimaya ✨Craft sake brewed in a room of a housing complex in Takatsuki city 🍶It's interesting in itself, but Adachi's positive attitude made me want to support him as much as I could 👀how good is this lychee juice-added sake? I thought it would be safe to open the bottle with the screw cap, but the lees and a little bit of lees came up 🫧 after opening and closing the bottle several times, I finally opened it 💨 the first aroma is lychee 🥥 the sourness and bitterness on top of the lees is a nice smell 🤤 in the mouth, it is lychee 🥥 the first aroma is lychee 🥥 the second aroma is lychee The sweetness, strong gasiness, and a bit of bitterness also come through the nose with a nice lychee aroma 🥰The beer is light at 12% alcohol, so you can gobble it up 😋I really wish they could have made this in a room in an apartment complex ✨.

Comparison of different yeasts.

Japanese>English

Sake from the Takeshita Brewery, birthplace of former Prime Minister Takeshita. Gorgeous aroma, The fruity flavor is just as the label says. The sweetness is reminiscent of pineapple, The sweetness reminds one of pineapple, and gradually the bitterness appears and disappears. It is easy to drink and goes down smoothly, I thought it was a sake to be enjoyed on its own rather than paired with something else. I thought it was a sake to be enjoyed by itself rather than to be paired with something else.

Japanese>English

We are invited to the head office to have a good drink after a not-so-fun work day. The head office is far away and uncomfortable, so we are bersassa. The specs are the same. We compared the different yeasts. I didn't know yeast could make such a difference. It is easier to tell the difference than the rice. There are different tastes. The No. 9 is very clear and has little assertiveness. No. 18 has a more gorgeous aroma and taste. Olizeh is amazing! The story on the back label is interesting wish.

The picture on the label is Mutsugorouno from Ariake Sea 😅 Paired with pickled sardines with sesame vinegar. It's also excellent 🎉. KUITTO@Yono 20230819

Arrival at today's inn. We will have a yakimugi bento (barley lunch box) bought at Tosu station on the way to the hotel! When the bottle is opened, it has a pudding-like aroma. It has a mild, pudding or custard-like flavor, just like the standing aroma, and the soft, round sweetness is really pleasant! The tanginess of the brewing alcohol can be felt directly afterwards, but it can be enjoyed with a good balance! I couldn't distinguish it from the one-cup sake for a moment, but it is a fine Saga sake.

Japanese>English

Drinking Past, Drinking Home November finally arrived! The label of Mutsugoro in the shape of Saga Prefecture is unique 😊. It was a bit chilly that day, so I had it at room temperature! The aroma is grain-derived flavor and acidity. On the palate Surprisingly sweet! There is enough umami and acidity, and the bitterness that comes out after a while is moderate. And the lingering aftertaste is short and finishes quickly... It's delicious 👍

The rice used is Yamadanishiki and Shunyo. This is Izumo no Kuni's newest brewery, created (reborn) last year. Naturally, it was the first time for us to visit. The image of sake in this area is that of powerful sake-like sake, all of which are unique. This sake is unique in the sense that it is, but the image has been overturned. It is very fruity and lightly sweet and sour, with a pleasant citrus bitterness spreading from the sweetness and acidity. The mouthfeel is clear and crisp. It is a wonderful bottle as a food sake. ❣️ We will keep an eye on it in the future: ‼️

Japanese>English

Overall 9 (out of 10) I had my first Shimane sake 🍶😃. I got it from Pekho-san. According to the description of the sake shop It's a "fruity and full of flavor" sake! Delicious 😋. It is a light, astringent and delicious 🍶. More of a sense of breadth than a sense of depth. Simple and straight rather than complex and harmonious Consistent throughout rather than a change in flavor. The astringency brings out the umami of the rice in a good way. I got such an impression 😋. It was gone in no time at all😅 I served it chilled. The aroma I got from the bottle is as follows. 　-Aroma: A strong aroma of rice. 　-Aroma: Slightly astringent taste that passes through the nose. Taste sensation The higher the number, the stronger the taste (5 is the maximum) 　-Spiciness: 1 at the beginning → 1 in the aftertaste 　-Sweetness: 1 at the beginning → 1 in the aftertaste 　-Sourness: 0 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste 　-Bitterness: 0 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste 　-Astringency: 1 at the beginning 1→ Lingering 1 　-Rice flavor: 4 at the beginning → 3 in the aftertaste Mouthfeel I felt】→3 Small number = light and smooth Large number = thick and rich (5 is the maximum)

I went to Tabe Takeshita Sake Brewery and Sake Brewery Museum 😆. But all the sake was sold out there 😭 So I went to a liquor store that sells this sake and bought Rihachi👍. I wanted to drink it and I couldn't bear to end up not being able to buy it 😣. But I'm glad I was able to buy it safely 😌. I've had this drink before and I know it's good, so I feel safe drinking it 😌. I wasn't sure whether to buy Rihachi's white label or black label, but this time I went with this one ✨. It's consistently delicious 😋.

It is fresh and crisp, and you can feel the flavor of the rice. It goes well with both fish and meat.

I bought it last year as a souvenir from Utsunomiya. It's been a while since I've had "out of the gate", but my taste buds have changed since the last time I had it, so I'm looking forward to it! When you open the bottle and pour it, it smells like citrus fruits and lychee. It is tasteless on the palate, but gradually the richness and mellowness of the rice comes out. The sweetness, spiciness, and astringency of the flavor are all present as soon as the lid is opened! Although it is a junmai ginjo, it has such a robust flavor that it may be served warm. The overtone is similar to that of "Shinkame" and gives the impression of a matured sake. The lingering aftertaste is well rounded as it quickly fades away. Overall, the shades of gray are exquisite, and the taste is quite interesting! In fact, the first sake I ever drank in my life was "Monkai Fude. I was actually the first person in my life to drink sake, and that drink at Kinugawa Onsen has led me to the present day.

Japanese>English

A favorite liquor store introduced this sake as "sake that goes well with food". I drank it cold. It was very good, a little dry but also sweet and refreshing, much better than I expected! It was perfect for a 👀👏 dinner with rice 🍶 It seems to go with everything👌. It is available in supermarkets in Tochigi prefecture where we live 🙆🙆.

Junmai Namaishige Namaishige🍶Challenge 90✨Free Yamada Nishiki🌾 from Mie Prefecture. Slightly mature aroma. A little grassy on the palate. But it finishes lighter than expected. Alcoholic taste is strong. It is sticky, bitter, and spicy. A little sourness. Delicious with spicy miso wings and sweetness. Umi to @Takadanobaba 20230922

Wow! This is intense. Vinegar, takuan (pickled radish), and yogurt! And yet you can also taste the sweetness of the rice. The bubbles bloom in a flowery, shwashy way. This is the taste of a sake with a Sake Degree of -65 and an acidity of 9.9! Definitely a sake that leaves a lasting impression. I'm glad I took the plunge and bought it. This is the taste of a sake with a sake strength of -65 and an acidity of 9.9! Comes in a PET bottle, so it's easy to open. I wonder if there are more active cloudy bottles in PET bottles. The label has gone away.

My colleague brought it to me 🎵 It was my first time to drink this sake 🍶 It has a delicious white wine-like flavor and a rounded sake taste ❗The lingering taste is not sweet but has a bitter flavor like chocolate 😉 It was an interesting and delicious sake 😉. It may be a bit on the refreshing side, but it doesn't make you think it's super dry, it's a good sake for those who are looking for a dry sake 😃.

Japanese>English

A bottle given to me by my predecessor, who recently reached retirement age. He said it was a thank-you for the 3 kg of new rice he delivered every year during his tenure, which he called a "taste test. Rice has become sake! The nose has a fruity ginjo aroma, but the fragrance is subdued. The mouthfeel has a gentle, round sweetness and a satisfying umami. The fruity feeling that passes through the nose and the mild acid bitterness that comes at the end disappear slowly and gently. I had an image that Houyo was not my favorite, but this is good! I can say that when it comes to high-class wines, this one is genuinely tasty. Thank you very much for the sake!

Japanese>English

It is said to be the oldest brewery in Miyagi Prefecture. Fresh and mellow. The acidity is strong. I wonder if it is better to let it sit for a while after opening it. As expected, sweetness appeared on the 3rd day. I wonder if Houyou tastes better on the third day 🤔.

Rice used is Yamae Nishiki It is supposed to be a sake that goes well with mushrooms, but in the end I did not pair it with mushrooms. However, it has a gentle sweetness, and it was just plain delicious. It also had a mushroom-like flavor, though it was only vaguely. Bitter and astringent tastes are close to that. It's a sweet sake, juicy, but clear and elegant on the palate. It was well balanced and certainly seemed to go well with mushroom dishes.

It is a regular sake from Shigaizumi 🍶. The aroma is slightly sweet on the nose. It has a moderate sweetness and a hint of acidity in the mouth. Delicious with pickled red turnip 😊. The third and fourth pictures show the Shigaizumi brewery, about a 10-minute walk from Nakano Matsukawa Station on the Nagano Electric Railway Nagano Line. At the factory in the back, they were bringing in sake rice.
