As understood from the label, it is an original label of Hotel Epinar Nasu that probably exists in Nasu Kogen. The aroma is like a picture of green apples🍏. I drank it with cold sake, but it was a little sweet and very refreshing. It is easy to drink because there is no spiciness of alcohol. There is no strong impact on the palate, but it is a delicious sake😄. It goes well with sushi🍣👍. I also really liked the match with yuba😋

Sake meter value +8. Very robust and dry, but The ginjo aroma makes it elegant and cohesive. It can be enjoyed on its own or It is also perfect as an in-between-dinner drink.

The first sip is unexpected. The taste is clean and refreshing. But when you take your time to taste it, you will realize that it is the Etsukaijin's strong and complex flavor that sells it. Etsukaijin is known for its powerful and complex flavors. You can taste the robust umami.
Japanese

English
This is my first time drinking Etsukaijin. As the label clearly states. Sake degree +10 degrees, alcohol level is around 18 degrees. It has a thick and rich taste. It is well-balanced with a touch of sharpness. It is a brand that I would like to follow for a while. In order to conquer the whole country This is one of the bottles that I chose while hesitating in Kagawa prefecture which was empty. If I hadn't been working at Sake no Wa I'm sure I would never have drunk it. I really appreciate it.

Another beautiful bottle this year. I was able to obtain it. The blue gradation is wonderful! I think last year it was the color of wild cherry. The taste is soft and gentle. Delicious! It didn't have the piquancy of a fresh sake. Like?

It is quite pungent, and the acidity creates a bit of sweetness. I think it is a crisp sake.
Japanese

English
It has a soft freshness. Creamy aroma, like vanilla. The mouthfeel is quite silky, with a hint of sweetness and flavor. There is a hint of citrus. Mild, but with a bitter and spicy aftertaste. Rather than drinking it by itself, it is very suitable for drinking with food. A bit alcoholic for me😅. I'd like to give it some time and see how it changes.

A colleague, who knows I like sake, gave it to me as a business trip gift. I could not read the label at first sight. When I drank it at 5 degrees Celsius, it was sweet, but also somewhat watery... When drunk at 0°C, it was sweet but also firm, with a strong rice flavor.

(*^▽^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 We had a positive snow love mountain today 😀. Tecate Caravelle is hard to photograph😈. The aroma is mild and not very strong, but when you drink it, the Aizan flavor hits you hard and the acidity follows, but it disappears quickly 😙It has a nice sharpness that keeps you going even with a good sip 🤔It was a delicious sake 🤤.

A summer sake from Zao brewed with Miyagi sake rice, Gin-no-Iroha. Slight ginjo aroma. This is my first time at the brewery, and it finishes with a slight bitterness. It is crisp. The expression of Gin-no-Iroha varies from brewery to brewery.

It has the smell of mambo candy, which is a candy made of colored vinyl and filled with a candy like ramune, pears, and rice. It starts with the fruity sourness of pear and rice, followed by a pungent spiciness and then a full-bodied, delicious sweetness. The caramelized taste comes in like it has been aged, and the sweetness, which is not as sweet as sugar, and the light bitterness extend. If you continue to drink it, it will taste sweet in the mouth, but if you pour some cold sake back into the mouth, you can drink it without hesitation. As you continue to drink it, your tongue gets used to it and the caramel taste is a nice accent, making it a delicious drink. It is delicious. When the temperature is raised to 60 degrees Celsius, the spiciness, acidity, and the rice flavor are all present.

(*´ω*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 At Sakaishi Daigo (Part 12) I had my first bottle of Asahi Taka 😀 . It's an all-you-can-drink drink, so I had the luxury of comparing it with a bottle of Jyushiyo Honmaru. My impression is that both are delicious. I felt it was completely different from other Honjozo 😙I would like to drink it again 😁.

While somewhat discreetly sweet, the Aftertaste is dry. Good sharpness 😋. I'm under the impression that this would be even better with a little bubbly ✨. However, as the temperature rises, the sharpness becomes duller and the sweetness becomes more pronounced. The sweetness becomes more pronounced. I think it's better when it's cold 😋.

I bought this one at Kimura Sake Brewery after hesitating between it and Daishinshu. I have had Toko before, but this was my first time to try Yong. The top aroma is mild but fruity. As the introduction of Shusen-do Horikazu says, it does have a hint of cherries, doesn't it? It is dry and fresh with a moderate sweetness. A little citrusy? Sharp dry sake. A little too light for me? A little too light for me. After a few days, the dryness settles down.

I went to Yonezawa City during Golden Week and purchased this sake at Toko's Sake Brewery. Nyu is a sake that is only available in Yamagata. With a coupon I got at a roadside station in Yonezawa, I got a sake bottle with Toko's name on it. It is a dry sake with a Sake meter rating of +6. It was easy to drink with a clean taste. 1760 yen.

My favorite Chiba sake 🍶 "Fukusuku" ㊗️♪The aroma is subtle...the aftertaste from sweet bitterness to moderate bitterness and comet flavor...it's really good 😋 Wow .... If it's Chiba sake, it's whale sashimi....goes well with it! On the second day, we had western style hors d'oeuvres to go with it....also goes well with it....it's delicious 😋Now it's Fukushuku ㊗️

A trophy from our recent trip to Minami-Boso for binge drinking and binge eating...Despite the appearance of the label, this is a real wine! Brewed with Yamadanishiki, it has a fruity aroma... a strong sweetness and bitterness with a sharp aftertaste! Brewed with Kururi water, you can feel the clarity...delicious...I'm sipping it with a side dish of Whale Sashimi...sipping it with a side dish of Whale Sashimi...sipping it with a side dish of Whale Sashimi...sipping it with a side dish of Whale Sashimi...!

This was my first Koganezawa, a gift from someone. It is a Junmai Daiginjo made from Gohyakumangoku, so I had an image that it was quite refreshing, but it tasted just as it should. But it also has a strong umami of rice and is easy to drink without any peculiarities 😆 It is easy to pair with meals and I was off in no time 🤣.
