The rice used is. Yume Issho from Fukuoka Prefecture Freshly pressed and unpasteurized sake, it has a fresh and crisp mouthfeel. It has a slight muscat-like sweetness and a refreshing finish. You can drink it like a soft drink. It is suitable for a wide range of dishes, but I think it is best served with yakiniku (grilled meat). It is perfect for a rich flavor. ❣️ I would like to repeat this delicious sake. ‼️

Japanese>English

. Sake rice: Yume Ikkyo Rice polishing ratio: 65 At "Yakitori Genkotsuyama" in the main station of Toyohashi Yakitori at GENKOTSU YAMA Sharp, dry and crisp! Not much of the nigori (nigori sake) character! ✩3.5

Japanese>English

. Sake rice: Omachi Polishing ratio: 65 Not much Omachi character. It has a calm flavor. It is best served hot or lukewarm! Similar to Shinkame in flavor! 3.5 stars

Tonight at our usual izakaya: ❗️ Bring your own drinks with this guy: ⤴️😆 Refreshing, mellow, fruity🌸🍶✨ Sweet and delicious 🐴, spicy and oicy ❕. It has a great balance 😆. While rehabilitating from last night's overindulgence, I'm enjoying it very much.

Japanese>English

Next, Niigata sake. In the mouth? Huh? Is it a smooth type? Is it a feeling that the flavor deepens after you gulp it down? Languaging...difficult...😓.

Schwarzenegger and Refreshing Aroma: Fruity, a little foamy attack. Taste: Fresh sweetness, low acidity. It goes in smoothly and has a refreshing aftertaste. Easy to drink at ABV 13. Aperitif and instant kill. Didn't hold up to seafood 🤣.

2022/06/17 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sweet apple-like aroma. Fine and rich sweetness like pure honey. The acidity is moderate and full-bodied. It has a very slight bitterness and a long aftertaste. A perfect sake when you want to be healed by sweetness.

It has a nice fruity apple flavor that I was told about. The taste is sweet to umami, very weak to bitter. It is a refreshing sake. Shiromayumi is a sake with strong umami. I was surprised to find such a light sake. But it is 15 degrees. It is a light sweet sake.

Japanese>English

Gorgeous aroma. Sweet and sour with apple flavor. A taste befitting a summer ginjo-shu. We served it with grilled and soaked summer vegetables. It is refreshing.

Nama sake that can be stored at room temperature, as is typical of the major companies. It's very heavy and drinkable. Sweet and spicy? Creamy like nuts and butter. Junmai is only a little over 1,000 yen including tax, so it is very cost-effective. It seems to have good aging potential, so it might be good to let it sit for a while.

Japanese>English

Sawanotsuru rice-only sake Junmai-shu. It is a delicious sake with a nice aroma, refreshing and easy to drink. It is delicious!

Japanese>English

This is Sawanotsuru Junmai Sake Yamadanishiki. It is a delicious, clear, dry sake. The price was less than 800 yen for a four-pack. It is the best in terms of cost performance. Yoshio is sleeping.

Memorandum for Tuesday 11/28🍶. Drinking party at my classmate's house - ⤴️🍻🎵 Bring your own booze to the colley ⤴️🍶 Fun for everyone, It was very delicious(^-^)/

Japanese>English

I bought this at AEON Liquor when I went to AEON Katsuragawa with a friend. I was looking for something unusual for the parking fee 😁. I've had Fudo before, but this is the first time I've had Niiyu. It has a honey-like aroma. The flavor is beautiful and gorgeous, but it's a bit too refreshing for an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. I would like a little more umami... I think it has a lot of rice flavor 🤔.

Japanese>English

Good evening, first series here 💁 from Niiyu. Also known as Fudo Toi brand, this is a test brew of Niiyu's frog series 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 Rice is undisclosed🍶. As usual, from the aroma, there is a slight melon ginjo aroma, and the taste is like drinking sweet, fresh melon juice 🍈 There is not much acidity or fizz, so it has a fruit juice feel. The second half is delicious with a solid volume from the alcohol 😋.

I was able to get some free time during the day, so I went to the gym and worked out for an hour, then went straight to the bathhouse and had a nice, wide bathtub, and then had a long-overdue dinner. I started with a beer and then opened a bottle of "Hanagaki Ginjo" that my father-in-law gave me for New Year's. After the refreshing sweetness that is typical of Hanagaki, the umami flavor spreads out, leading directly to the rich aftertaste. It is relatively sweeter than most of Fukui's local sake, but it has no peculiarities and is easy to drink 😉. I'll have to consume it little by little since my cellar is overloaded with more sake from the New Year's holiday including this one 😁.

Japanese>English

Translated from original in Japanese: 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this at Nanbu Shuzo Sake Brewery. You can drink it like Calpis soda. It is Calpis for adults.

Japanese>English

The one I bought after tasting it at Ikushima Shoten. Slightly effervescent. Melon-like aroma and taste. Bitter and spicy in the latter half. When I tasted it, it tasted sweeter, so I wonder if it will taste sweeter after a while. When I drank it again, it didn't feel spicy on the first day, but sweet and spicy. After a few days, it tastes like cemedine.

Moved to the corner of Matsuzaki in Kawagoe. This is my first time at the fashionable Yellow Cherry Blossom. It is easy to drink and refreshing. It is the opposite of Kappa's sake. The reason why I couldn't feel the Aizan sensation must be because I was drunk.

〰︎ 🌾 Domestic rice here, drunk I wanted to eat grilled seafood, so I went to Chiba. There was cold sake, so I ordered this one! Strong and refreshing with a lingering aftertaste 😋.
