I felt that it was a refreshing drink. I drank it up in a good mood while tucking into the delicious fish dishes at Hasunotena.

First Fukuoka sake on my new account. It is Ikegame from Kurume 🐢. The label is a cute goldfish: ❤️ This is my first time drinking Ikegame, and while it is a junmai sake, it also has a bit of ginjo aroma, which gives it a nice cosiness 😙. It has a refreshing and crisp summery taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and umami that won't interfere with your meal 😋. It went well with meat, fish, and vegetables👍. Thanks to the sake brewery and the store that recommended it to us 🙏!

Pond turtles are good. This is the first time to see this one, and it's also hot, so I thought raw would be good too, so I bought it. It has a very light and refreshing taste, but it has a very strong spiciness and a very strong umami taste. It has a lot of elements that make you want to drink it. It can also be heated. Some of the nama sake can be too strong, but this sake is light, so it goes well with it. I liked how the astringency came out well. Mr. Mitamura went to Arashiyama He was tasting a high Tanzan. He said it is only available at certain times of the year, but it's a great service!

It's not a scent... it's more of a... distinctive smell... and I can definitely tell it's fermented... lactic acid bacteria? Strong acidity! It's a very unique wine, so I think it's a very special drink. I think the flavor is a little more mellow on the second day after opening. It was well preserved, but... but does it really taste like this? That scent? It smells like fresh laundry... like an old wooden tub... and I don't like it... I don't...

Japanese>English

This was also purchased at Oka Sake Shoten, the same place as Unjaku. The aroma is mild but unique. The aroma is mild but unique, and it has a light aged feeling, probably because it has been shipped for a long time. If you drink it cold, it has some peculiarities, but overall it is flat. The umami acidity has a strong impact. It would be good to warm it up as well. According to the staff at the store, they won't be making PURE PINK this year. When heated, the sweet and savory flavor really shines through. I definitely recommend it over cold sake.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Omachi from Okayama Prefecture. It has a dark mouthfeel and a bit of maturity, but as the days go by, it becomes more rounded and changes to a level where even those who are not good at it can go. However, even though it has become more rounded and easier to drink, the sweetness and strength of the Omachi can still be clearly seen, so there will be different tastes. For me, it's a very interesting sake! The first day I opened the bottle, I thought it might be too peculiar to pair with a meal. However, from the second day onwards, while maintaining its richness, it gradually becomes lighter and lighter, and is not bad as a food sake. If you roll it around in your mouth, it is a nicely aged sake, but if you drink it with gusto, you can drink it without worrying too much. Still, I want to enjoy the aged feeling of this kind of sake, so drinking it a little bit every day is good for me.

@Osawa of Sake Rice used is unknown Not fruity at all. It is not light and dry, and has aged well. The taste is a mellow type with a strong umami. The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing for a Daiginjo. It is what is called "the sake of sake.

Japanese>English

I stopped by Hashimoto Sake Brewery on my way to Yamanaka Onsen last year. The store is a bit like a museum, and you can learn a lot from the easy-to-understand explanations about the rice polishing ratio and the process of making sake. I was not able to taste the sake because I was the handle keeper, but the president recommended a lot of sake and my family was getting drunk (sweat). I drank it cold, but it was still dry. When I heated it up, it became soft, mellow, and easy to drink. The color is quite amber, so the polish may be shallow. Personally, I think drinking it at room temperature or hot is the right way to go. I like to drink sweet sake cold, but I'm starting to think it would be nice to drink dry sake hot ( ˘ω˘ ).

Japanese>English

The aroma is subdued. The mouthfeel is watery, but soon after, a strong acidity is felt. The alcohol content is low, but the acidity lingers in the aftertaste. Alcohol 15%. Sake level: Slightly high Acidity: High Star ⭐️⭐️

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`) The effect of oak barrels, or something quite close to whiskey, but the mellowness and acidity of sake is also alive! I know it's just my imagination, but I feel it's similar to the whiskey akashi. Of course, if I didn't know any better, I wouldn't have thought so. I also had a bottle of Junmai Namae in the heated sake corner, but my memory is a little fuzzy on whether or not my brain was getting the alcohol when I got here! I do remember that it was meant to be heated, but that's about it.

Akashi, Hyogo Prefecture. Eigashima Sake Brewery Co. Nihon-Spirit Junmai Mizu-Hashiro Nama-Shu, unfiltered, raw, additive-free. Not enough metamorphosis in your body...💦. So... Hentai, cha~jig ‼️⚡️ Sake degree -53, acidity 4.3, mizu-hashiroshi brewing. The toji was the former toji of Mimuro Sugi, so you could say it is a Bodhi yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast brewing. It is a stable, perverted sake, Nippon Soul 🍶. The color is clear but firm yellow. The nose has a burnt caramel-like aroma mixed with a grain-like aroma. The mouthfeel is viscous and thick. The taste has a caramel-like aroma, with a thick, concentrated honey-like sweetness, followed by sourness and a rich sweet and sour taste. Well, it's almost like a dessert wine or a noble rot wine, and it's a fine perverse wine 🤣. Some breweries don't like to be called "perverted sake," but this one is a brewery that would be pleased to hear the opposite 🤣. Ingredients: Rice (Hyogo Prefecture), Rice malt (Hyogo Prefecture) Rice polishing ratio: 70%. Alcohol content: 16%.

The moment you pour it into a glass, it's generative. Let it be a little The acidity of the sake yeast is quite strong This was not my favorite either! There were only a few bottles left, so we put all of them in the bottle, but it was a good thing there were not too many! extensive knowledge Raw material rice: Nipponharu from Hyogo Prefecture (Flat polished rice) Polishing ratio 70%. Yeast used: High malic acid producing yeast No.28 Alcohol percentage 16 Sake Degree ➖4.8

This Sake is amber color and has a full mouth feel. The flavor of dates gives this a sweet overall taste and the cedar provides sophistication. There is also some acidity that gives this a clean, dry finish. 🧐

Yamahai Junmai Nigori🍶 Yamadanishiki from Itoshima🌾. Bitter and delicious ✨. Dry. Less flabby than it looks. The bitterness is diluted a little by the squid. Gives a grassy feel. Shrimp cheese spring roll 🦐🧀 with chili sauce makes it sweet 😅Omoro 😆. Sea and @ Takadanobaba 20230608

For my sixteenth cup, I decided on "Bida"! I decided to have it because I missed my trip to Fukuoka last year👍. The taste is cloudy and thick, with a lot of rice flavor. The dryness also makes it easy to drink for a mukuri-shu, and it washes down the fat from the pork bowl I had earlier, making it just right for a reset ✨.

When I come to "Noe-no-ye", I can sometimes find sake from Mr. Mouzuka's place! Basically, when I find it, I drink it! And this time, it was a junmai nama-shu, which has never been posted on Sake-no-wa! And it's ogara-mi! Junmai nama sake has been posted quite a bit. The sake is dry, but I like it! I hope I will be able to find another sake that I don't know about. Brief Sketch Alcohol 15.5 Rice polishing ratio 60 Sake degree +4 Acidity 1.5

Strength of edge characters. Strength of alcohol. I like alcoholic drinks with a strong habit. This is one of those drinks that I fantasize about drinking in a room without air conditioning and sweating in the hot summer because I can feel the sweetness in the full flavor. As usual, I can't smell it, so I can't describe what it feels like, but I wonder if it smells strong? How many more cups, stop counting how many you can drink in your life, and be thankful that you could drink today.

It's been a day, but I'm sober. Pollen is killing my eyes nose and mouth today. It's like a clear and dry taste. It's raw, so I could clearly feel the umami. After that, we had a welcome party. Since it was a leap year, I wanted to open a bottle of Leap No. after I got home, but I had a feeling that the members of the party would get too drunk. I don't know if I can do it.

Shirakawa sake. In fact, this is one of the reasons I got hooked on sake after drinking it a few years ago. Sake from Shirakawa, Fukushima is delicious! 🫠💓

Forgery, hypocrite.... You're right, I'm a booze junkie. I was mistaken. My drinking is not about drinking. There is only one thing I can do. All I could do was to push my liver. The body is made of alcohol! Blood is water, and the heart is malted rice! I went through several banquets and lost all of them! Not a single vomit, not a single victory! The bearer is here alone, holding a can in a pile of corpses! Then my drinking needs no meaning! This body was made of endless rice! Thank you God🙏!

Snow Kirara was a summer gift from a colleague. I have never had this sake before, but I thought the size, the font on the label, the color, and the total cuteness of the sake 🩷. It was very easy to drink in this summer heat👍.

(o´ω-)b🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I went to Hiroshima 🚅 for work 🎊 for the first time in my life. I ate okonomiyaki, went to an izakaya (Japanese style bar), and at the end, I got the last of a bottle of sake that the owner recommended 😊I got the last of a bottle as a courtesy 😋. It's like a summer sake with a refreshing taste 😚 and a crisp aftertaste 😋. It went well with oysters, small sardines, conger eels and other specialties. ❤️ I'm going to work hard tomorrow and then go back to the liquor store 🥳.

I bought it again this year, I used to go to the sake brewery every year to buy it, But this year, I was too busy with work to go to the brewery, I remember that last year, the liquor store where I often buy sake sold it, So...., I visited there because it is close to my office, Are you going to put summer sake in this year? I ordered some, but it didn't come, The owner calls the brewery on the spot, The owner called the brewery on the spot. What's this year's? It's a little bitter, A little bitter? It doesn't linger, so I'll go for it, It's summer, It's eel bowl. If you buy eel on the day of the Ushi, it is expensive, so I saved the date, And I had accumulated points at the supermarket, Today, we had wine instead of beer. It is a wine made in Sera Town, the town of Ekiden. It has a strong grape flavor and is very tasty.
