Brewed by Suginomori Sake Brewery, a revived brewery. This brewery is not registered with Sake-no-Wawa.... Despite the chic jet-black bottle. Fruity aroma, sweetness, and The flavor of the rice is very strong.

Japanese>English

This sake, which looks like a wine bottle, is a souvenir from Naraijuku on the Nakayama Road. It is slightly effervescent with a slight sourness and sweetness. It was an easy-drinking sake.

Japanese>English

narai beta It looks like wine, but it is a sake made by Suginomori Sake Brewery in Narai, Shiojiri City, which is famous for Naraijuku on the old Nakasendo Road. If you buy it outside of your hometown, it costs about 5,000 yen 🤔. The top aroma is sweet with a refreshing coolness. The first sip has a refreshing citrusy acidity and a juicy sweetness. It's a bit un-Nagano-esque but very tasty 🍶✨️😊

It is sweet, but has a good sharpness. Light and refreshing after opening the bottle. and refreshing 😋. Another delicious sake 😆.

Japanese>English

Very refreshing! First taste is muscat with a hint of cucumber towards the finish. There is a slight dryness at the finish which is nice. A light mouth feel and a short finish. The name of this Sake is true to the flower.

It's a lovely label 🦋The first of the 2025 guitars has arrived and I'll give it to you right away 🎉. It's my first time to this brewery, but I surely know their "Mugi Shochu Iichiko" ‼️ It's 14 degrees, but it's softly sweet with a unique alcohol taste! There is a slight spicy bitterness, but it has the strength to blow away the low-alcohol feeling 💖. When paired with a meal, the unique alcohol, spiciness, and bitterness of the Kona mysteriously blow away, and it becomes a round, round, round sake. It's a wonder. Am I just drunk? Today's dishes are pork shabu-shabu, simmered pumpkin & kakuni & mushrooms, and chilled tofu with baby sardines. ❤️ Yesterday was the last race of the season in which my husband participates as a hobby 🏁 We enjoyed it slowly while reflecting on this year together 👍. For impressions of the sake alone, shinsaku3 is in charge 💕.

Cup of sake (3) - Jyobari We met Jyokappari, which was introduced in "Izakaya Shinkansen". The apple design of this sake made us think that it might have some sweetness, but it was a "traditional Chinese" sake. It has a strong spiciness and sharpness. It has no peculiarities and goes in easily. We will have it warmed up to accompany Yose-nabe.

Japanese>English

Rice used is something from Aomori Prefecture Certainly dry. But it also has a hint of sweetness. At the beginning, it is so tangy that you may think it is a raw sake⁉️. As the days went by, the sourness became stronger and the flavor was a little different from my taste. For me, the first day of drinking was the most impressive.

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

No cloying taste, soft and clear. Sake with a soft and clear impression. The fruity aroma The fruity aroma spreads gently in the mouth. A delicious sake that enhances the taste of food. Delicious!

I've been making my way to restaurants with good service lately. Today they served me a fresh aged sake. Today is February 6. This is my first Kinkame. My first impression was that it was very good! Next, it has a strong umakuchi taste. The acidity at the end is good, just like Yamadataro. It is like a light kijoshu, and it is delicious. Shiga is nice.

Japanese>English

This one has a milling ratio of 80. Full of sweetness! It spreads slowly in the mouth.

Japanese>English

In Sakewa, there are two separate brands, Kinkame and Kinkame, which is the correct one to register? Kinkame's "Drink this" is 70% polished. It has umami, richness, and a moderately classic feel. This is also a delicious sake.

One of the sake I wanted to try because of the stylish label❗️ A hint of pear? White peach? It smells like pear or white peach 😅 Elegant sweetness and almost no sourness ❗️ No bitterness or habits, and the aftertaste seems to disappear easily 😄. Overall, it's a gentle sake that goes well with meals. It's a delicious sake that can be drunk easily on its own 👍 Even sake beginners can enjoy it 😄.

Japanese>English

Newly registered brand. Since the sake brewer could not be registered, the new brand is "Aizu Otokoyama" from Otokoyama Shuzo Brewery in Aizu Misato Town, Fukushima Prefecture. Its new brand name is "Wa". It has a mild aroma. It has a melon aroma and a hint of sweetness like caramel. The sweetness that is not too strong is impressive. There is some acidity. The aftertaste is strong alcohol. A strong bitterness also lingers. I have a feeling that it will be excellent with Japanese food.

Japanese>English

I was curious about this sake because Mr. Manachie was drinking it. Purchased at an antenna store in Fukushima Prefecture. I really wanted the same specs, but they only had this one and an expensive one, so I had no choice but to choose this one. The brewery has reopened after 20 years. It has a mild and gentle honey-like sweetness. The aftertaste is refreshing. I would prefer a little more sweetness, but it seems to go well with a meal.

A gift from my brother at home the other day. It was chilly, so I paired it with pork shabu-shabu. It was a little high at 17%, so I tasted it slowly at first and then served it on the rocks in the latter half of the bottle. I enjoyed the mildness of the wine.

Japanese>English

A refreshing, dry sake. It is the type of sake for drinking at night.

Japanese>English

This is another sake that was mentioned in this month's special issue of dancyu on sake that tastes good at "room temperature". Niigata Prefecture has many breweries, and there are still a few that I have yet to try. There are many breweries in Niigata that I have yet to try. I'd like to try it at room temperature or lukewarm.

At home. This is my favorite Sei Masamune. There is no particular aroma, and it has a smooth mouthfeel with a fruity and sweet taste in the nose, followed by a little sourness, and finally a bitter taste that finishes it off nicely. Compared to the previous Seimasamune, the sweetness is more moderate.

Japanese>English

At home. Purchased at the usual liquor store. I want to drink it regularly. The owner said, "It tastes good both chilled and heated. I was looking forward to drinking it. First, we had it chilled. The aroma is gorgeous with a hint of alcohol. It has the characteristic sweetness and umami of Seimasa's sake. Oh, it's so good! Now that the heat is better, I would like to try heating it up next.

Japanese>English

At home. I drank Hanamasa and Seimasamune. However, I was already very drunk by the time I had the Seishomune. Both are gorgeous and delicious sake, and they gave me a happy time.
