Hatsugetsu Yoshino🌕. Soft sweetness, gentle acidity, a little bitterness. Easy to drink and delicious 😋. One that makes me glad I'm in the Shinshu Jizake Hanpukai ✨ This finally completes my post up to May 🙌! I have a little more time today, so I'll get to it 😆.

The second bottle was the remainder of the Tozawa Hitogokochi from the previous Shinshu Kamerei. The third bottle is here ‼️again Nagano sake 😋. I️️️tsukiyoshi no ‼️. The toji is a woman! Nagano sake is delicious 😋. I thought it was sweet, but it seems pretty dry 😋I think it's a great sake for a meal 👍Drinking it chilled is a great way to get a kick out of it👍. I heard one of the hyenas was today's No. 1 😆.

Japanese>English

Weekday off for lunchtime drinking. Izakaya in Akabane. I heard from a junior colleague that the hegi soba (buckwheat noodles) is delicious, so I visited the izakaya. First, I had Tsukiyoshino's orikagarami. The taste is gentle, elegant, and attractive.

Today's second drink is from a long-established local brewery in Kanagawa Light and dry Relatively thin on the tongue, with a slight aroma of the yellow part of pudding. It has a light sweetness, followed by a slight sourness. The aftertaste is a little alcoholic. Polishing ratio 70%, Sake degree +4, 13% alc. The overall taste is light. The aroma is surprisingly pudding-like! However, it is not so sweet and the sourness comes quickly, so it is less pudding-like, but this is the first Junmai sake with a pudding-like, egg-like flavor, which is good. The back view of the cat on the label is also a bit melancholy and cute.

Japanese>English

Low alcohol, clean and dry type. Fireworks on the back of the label. The cat must have been watching it.

Junmai Ginjo🍶 Nama Sake✨The Door into Summer🌻. Cute cat label😍Open the door and you'll see sunflowers🌻. The aroma, slightly pungent. A bit grassy when you drink it. A little grassy when you drink it. But the subtle saltiness, bitterness, cleanness, and spiciness are well balanced and nice. When paired with the pickled sea bream, it's refreshing ✨ and easy to drink without any resistance. But it might be a little less interesting 😅 If you pair it with marinated herring and dill, it's more interesting with more dill, but the sake might be less assertive. It might be a bit too much. Reset with fries. Umi to @Takadanobaba 20240709

Fruity aroma. It has a beautiful sweetness and sourness with a flavor and richness typical of sake. The alu feeling through the nose and the lingering bitterness are also fresh overall.

Mellow, mellow, melon🍈🍶. Not only Ozeyuki, but also Ryujin is oishii❕. I enjoy it very much.

We will have next year's zodiac first. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was not so strong. It is fruity, but it is not sweet enough to be tasty. I think it's a bit sweet. I didn't feel any chili. I did not feel the chili, I wonder how insensitive I am, I can't pick up any of the contents of the manual 😢. I didn't pick up on any of the contents of the manual 😢.

Store Drinking. HITOGOKICHIKI 100% The color is clear or slightly amber. The aroma is that of rice. When you sip it, you will taste the flavor of rice. It has a dry ALC feel. There is no fruity sweetness, and the taste is stoic. The rice sweetness remains until the end, with a rounded aftertaste. It has the impression of a Junmai Doshin🎯 royal road.

Japanese>English

😁 Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 59 Alcohol content: 15 I drank the sake I missed yesterday today. I went to Ueda, so I bought a bottle of Wada Ryutonomizu. It was a delicious hiyaoroshi with a good taste of rice. None of the people I drank with today knew about it. I thought it was pretty famous in my opinion, but... Is that so?

Sake from Yamaguchi Prefecture! I didn't know there was such a sake! Spicy from start to finish, but classy spiciness! Refreshing and exquisitely sweet! Delicious 👍!

Japanese>English

Refreshing aroma of sweet ginjo sake. It enters the mouth with a soft and slightly sweet aroma, but slowly fades away after the sweetness is well understood as a taste. Delicious.

★★★★ Tried and bought. Cheap and tasty! A drink to repeat.

mathematical operation Gentle rice sweetness. Slight tongue numbness. Melon aroma. Refreshing flavor. For some reason, I felt the commonality of honey in the depths. Despite the old-fashioned label, the impression is clean and modern without any cloying taste. Surprisingly, it is quite tasty. Purchased at Sakai Meizo. Unzan used to be produced and sold under the same brand name at several breweries, including this one and Yoshinoya in the Zenkoji temple gate town. Currently, Sakai Meikozo is no longer making sake, but has a soba noodle shop, cafe, and souvenir shop in a renovated brewery building, and the old brewery is open for tours. The sake sales corner is modest.

Japanese>English

Unzan Junmai Nama-zake 1600yen (The color is clear. It goes down smoothly on the palate. The delicious taste of rice and the juiciness of the sake will hit your tongue. The aftertaste is not harsh, but moderate. We recommend drinking it with appetizers, sashimi, and other dishes that are served with dashi broth. The target group is sake drinkers. It is good for those who want dry sake. Sake from Nagano

I bought this Suzune for my wife who wanted to drink it 😛 lol The gasiness is still the same, but the rice flavor and acidity are there, but the impression is a little lighter than Suzune. I think I like this one better because it's more refreshing✨.

146th bottle. Sweet, slightly effervescent, easy-drinking sake.

Japanese>English

4+/5 Really nice and light. Lightly sweet and tangy, real clean flavour. Very light but pleasant bubbles. Big honeydew melon with a bit of green apple, and some clean rice flavour. Hint of raw almond on the finish, with very light bitterness as well. Simple but effective!

Like Minatoya Toisuke, this is another brand of Murasuke that I bought because I liked it after tasting it at Ponshu-kan in Echigo Yuzawa. There are many liquor stores that sell Murasuke in Tokyo, but I had never seen this brand before. As its name suggests, it's low in alcohol content at 13%, so it's easy to drink 😚. When you drink it cold, it's light and refreshing, with no hint of bitterness. It's delicious in its own right, but when it's chilled at a cooler temperature, it becomes sweeter and more impressive. I liked it best when it was chilled in the wine cellar at about 15 degrees Celsius 😄. It's interesting to see how it changes with the temperature, but in any case, it's a different direction from the sweet and sour fruity Murasuke. I think it's a fine sake that won't go with any snacks 😋

This is a sake from the Murayu brewery👍. The acidity is very attractive.
