First time! Kirinzan....not much aroma....sweet and bitter, then sharp! Enjoy the delicious taste of Koshitanrei. The best and strongest for Niigata sake 🍶Meal sake 🍶 🍶 😀 Today, I'm having dinner with seasonal "Kogomi" and "Asatsuki" & Sashimi.......enjoying the spring ☘️

There's more past drinking and outside drinking 🤣. Kirinzan Potari Potari Gohyakumangoku (Junmai Ginjyo Nama sake) Unlike Koshitanrei, this one is very juicy in both aroma and taste. ❗️ It's really like a white grape! The sweet and sour taste reminds me of wine. ❗️ This one is also nostalgic and delicious👍

This is the kind of delicious sake that Yamagata is known for. It has a good sense of balance. It is sweet, spicy, and dances with acidity. Ryu, Yotsu.

This is a catalog gift item. I chose it because I wanted to try shizuku sake. I've never heard of this brand. It had an elegant and delicate taste like a daiginjo, but it didn't have much character.

I thought I had had a rice from Kagawa prefecture called ◯Ide Rice, so I asked for it (or maybe it was just my imagination). I drank it after Mutsu Hachisen, so it lacked fruity flavor, but it tasted delicious when heated.

Japanese>English

Ayaka-gun, Kagawa Prefecture. Yushin Brewery Co. Yushin Namaishu Junmai Ginjo No. 9 Yeast We are back to drinking at home. Purchased on a trip during Obon. I jumped on a label I'd never seen before and neglected to check the date, and found out that it was February 💦. I drank it cold. Not much Uitatekoso, but there is a slight graininess, with a hint of alkaloa. No mature-like aroma. The mouthfeel flows smoothly on the tongue, and the taste is full and full of rice flavor with a sense of maturity. The aroma that passes through the nose is a little matured, so it has matured a bit. But it just has an autumn-aged look to it 🤣. As the label on the back of the bottle says it is slightly dry, there is a bit of spiciness at the end, but I don't mind it too much because the umami is very strong. The high alcohol content makes it easy to drink, but it comes back with a thud later. I would like to try a freshly brewed sake once. Ingredients: rice, rice malt Ingredient Rice:100% Yamadanishiki (produced in Zaita-machi, Kagawa Prefecture) Yeast used: No.9 yeast Rice polishing ratio:55 Alcohol content: 17.5 Sweetness/spiciness: Slightly dry

Record of 2021/7/20 Gunma Cup Classic sake with the taste of rice.

Japanese>English

This is the last Maikaze series for this year. It's been quite a while, but we'll be having "Mt. Haruna" for the last time! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a relaxing sweet aroma. It has a peachy aroma. It also has a slightly banana-like flavor. The palate is smooth, as is typical of Gunma sake, with a slight sweetness that is typical of "Maifu" and a nice astringent taste that plays an active role in the background! The astringency also gives it a mineral taste, which I personally feel is similar to the "Tenpyo Junmai" that I drank before👍. In the latter half, the astringency becomes the main taste, which reminds me of grapefruit. It melts away at the end, so it goes down smoothly! I've enjoyed many Maikaze series this year, including "Akagisan"✨I'm looking forward to next year!

Sake made from 100% Omachi rice Mild sweetness spreads in the mouth, followed by a pleasant acidity that is well balanced. It is easy to drink with no cloying taste, and it goes down your throat nicely ✨. I feel that there is nothing wrong with Omachi, but this sake is the most delicious Omachi sake I have ever tasted 😊.

Japanese>English

At the tasting, I tasted a ripe LaFrance.... I was attracted by the words "Ripe LaFrance" and tasted it... I was scared 😳. This is really LaFrance 🍐! The way the aftertaste pulls away from the 🍐 is fantastic👍. Originally made by another brewery, but when they quit, Aihara Brewery took over the brewery. I heard it used to reign in the East and West with Jyushiyo (never had it...) 🤔. I don't have any experience so I can't compare, but this one is different for me personally!

Japanese>English

Kaneizumi is another brand of Aihara Shuzo, famous for Amego no Tsuki. This white lightning bolt is a spot product. On the palate, it has an elegant and discreet mix of sweetness and acidity, with a sharp finish that cuts through with a touch of bitterness! The bitterness is a nice accent, making it a very tasty sake that goes well with the season 😋.

YOKOBUE - Junmai-brewed Ume-shu (plum wine) 720ml Ingredients: Sake, plums, glacial sugar Alcohol content 11%. This was purchased at the brewery's store in November. This plum wine was the best among all the ones we tasted 😀. After the 3rd day of Honkin, I drank straight Umeshu (plum wine). 11 degrees, but I got drunk very fast. Sometimes plum wine is good... â

(˶ᐢ˶˶ᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Nagano business trip No.7 I bought a bottle of Yokobue at a local supermarket 😀. I don't think I can detect much aroma 🤔It is a dry Junmai sake with a good balance of rice flavor and acidity 😚👍. After drinking it as a reward for the weekend, I had a local ramen, Harbin Ramen 🍜🥰.
