It tastes like typical sake. Here is a description. This sake is made with only 70% sake rice so that the original flavor of the rice can be enjoyed. It is a sake that can be enjoyed as an affordable everyday evening drink. In winter, we recommend heating it up and enjoying it with hot pot dishes.

Another one this time. It is Takatsugawa by Fusozuru. It is from Shimane Prefecture. I saw Hiraccio-san drinking it and longed for it 🙌. First at room temperature. The color is a solid yellow. The aroma is mildly savory with a hint of maturity. It smells like caramel, soy sauce, and cream cheese. The mouthfeel is gentle. The palate is drowned in the complex flavor of aged rice with a moderate acidity. When heated up, it becomes smoother and more balanced, and you can just keep on drinking it. It has a relaxing and soothing taste. When tasted with a thick Shigaraki-ware sake cup, the warmth of the clay makes it taste even better. The warmth of the clay makes it even softer and happier 💕. Aizu girl and the Takatsu River I will relax my body and soul in the late winter. What a good evening drink 😊.

First brand The owner's relatives, who occasionally visit the restaurant, sent it to us. Sake with added sugar and acidity. It has a strong classical taste. I could feel a lot of Showa-era grandfather. I was curious about the crab miso ramen at the sea bream ramen restaurant, so I revisited. The crab miso was so delicious that I had to dip my noodles in the crab miso.

The sake is brewed by "Toroki Shouten", a sake brewer who was involved in growing the rice and brewing it together with Wakatakeya Sake Brewery. I got it as a sign of support 😊 Is it what's called a light, dry taste? It had a faintly sweet aroma, but the sip was refreshingly watery! The flavor and bitterness come out on the palate. I was drinking it with cream cheese as an entrée, but it doesn't get in the way, so it's probably just right for a mid-meal drink 😊.

Summer is here. Today at the Kesennuma Bonito Festival We were served free bonito nigiri at the Kesennuma Bonito Festival today. It was delicious, with a nice aroma of raw bonito and tataki sushi, and the oil on top made it tender and refreshing! Thanks to the fishermen and the festival committee members.... We were in a good mood and bought some summer sake. I was told that it is a sake to drink with a peaceful feeling, to make the earth a round place. I picked it up because it was the day I was feeling so good. It was the summer sake I wanted to drink now. It's great with steamed clams, which I bought as a souvenir. Close your eyes and let your mind become nothing. And thank you and I guess that's all I can say. The sweetness of the rice, the deep flavor, and the long aftertaste that permeates all five organs. It is a sake that makes you feel smooth and flat to the core 🍶. Maruni Boichi. This is a good sake for reconciliation and a gift for companionship. May the world be at peace.... it's okey!

Amber-colored Daiginjo ✨with a rich rice flavor😊It's a traditional sake 😚👍It has a robust flavor, but the aftertaste disappears quickly😇. I felt like it was a sake to be enjoyed by itself and sipped slowly 🥳.

GW in Kanazawa! At the Kanazawa Sake Brewery in Kanazawa Station, we came across a dream machine that allowed us to sample sake for 100 or 300 yen (P.S.) Naturally, we took the challenge. The description said it was dry, but I prefer raw sake, so I chose this one. I tasted it thinking it might be a fruity type, but it was a clear dry sake that would go well with sashimi and other dishes. I appreciate free tastings, but I feel somewhat guilty about it, so this kind of reasonably priced tasting is very helpful and encourages me to try different kinds. I tasted three other types of sake here, and all of them seemed dry to me. I have an image that Ishikawa's sake is basically dry.

Alcoholic beverages sent through crowdfunding I think I prefer it to the other bottle, Jungin, because it has a more pronounced sense of maturity.

Preferred: ★★★★☆☆ Cold sake: ★★★☆☆☆☆☆ Cold: ★★★☆☆☆☆☆ Lukewarm: ★★★★ When cold or chilled, it has an impressive aftertaste of bitterness and a slight gaseous sensation. When heated, the gaseous sensation subsides and a moderate aroma spreads, and a slight sweetness can be felt after the restrained bitterness. The common characteristics are a good balance of sharpness, aroma, and flavor. Serve with rolled egg, sardine nigiri, and warm udon noodles.

Looks like a new brewery: 🙇♂️ It's called sake, but it seems to be junmai (no mention of rice polishing ratio) 🌾. It rises with herbs, cream, and lychee ❔ pear ❔. The acidity is distinctive ❕, but it's not just light and fresh. But it's not just light, it's a solid, elegant, high quality sake ✨. I felt a very modern essence in a classic 🤔. And with this flavor, it is recommended to be warmed up to lukewarm ❔. I tried it 🍶. Lukewarm changes the atmosphere of the acidity, it's sweet and sour like hot honey lemon 🍋. It's refreshing to begin with, but even more so: ☺️ It's also a great food sake 👍. I recommend drinking it cold to lukewarm, but after trying many different ways, I thought cold or lukewarm would be better 🤗.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

Purchase from Okuhida Sake Brewery This sake brewery is within walking distance of Hida Kanayama Station. This time, they recommended to purchase by letter. I am a sucker for limited editions, so I bought it. The aroma is moderate and the taste is strong. It is dry with a clean aftertaste. I paired it with fried pork and cheese with tomato ketchup. I had it with fried pork and cheese with tomato ketchup. It had a strong flavor, but because it was dry, I think it would go well with western food. I think it goes well with western food.
