It is a dish which I received from a business partner. It is written "Zenchidori" and read "Uto". When you put it in your mouth, the flavor and sweetness spread easily. A clear spiciness passes through the throat. The elegant taste asks for another sake cup. It was a luxurious taste. (^○^)

First time drinking outside in a while, and the second drink was ayu - ‼️ This was also the first time I had this. The aroma is gorgeous and the sweetness and acidity are well balanced. I thought that ayu (sweetfish) was the ultimate in dryness, but it was easy to drink and I liked it.

Japanese>English

My first ayu masamune! I've never had it before 💡. Refreshing, refreshing, and oicy ❕. It was delicious!

Golden Week Car Overnight Stay From Minamiuonuma City via Tsunan Town, we arrived at an atmospheric thatched warehouse. 　While listening to various stories, we were allowed to drink the brewing water that springs from inside the brewery. The water was sweet, soft, and clean, and it would definitely make delicious sake! 　This sake is low in alcohol and has a very pleasant, elegant sweetness and acidity, like a dessert wine. 　Once you start drinking it, you will not stop. We enjoyed it very much 👍 I bought it at the brewery.

The first bottle was given to me at a certain president's house, to whom I am indebted. The rice used was ㊗️. Celebration is Kyoto's original rice that was revived in the Heisei era and is suitable for ginjo-shu (ginjo sake). It has a very elegant sweetness and aroma and is a premium ️sake. It is smooth on the palate and goes down smoothly. It was gone in no time. It was a treat❣️.

Japanese>English

100% Kyoto sake rice, celebratory rice Slightly sweet strawberry🍓 like aroma. The mouthfeel is mellow, but then you are surprised by the acidity and tanginess. The aftertaste is elegant, with a hint of strawberry flavor again. The second sip is easy to drink like water without the tanginess, as if you have gotten used to it. It reminds me of Kyoto's obanzai (traditional Japanese food), with a strong but not overpowering character. I was deeply impressed by the fact that this is Kyoto's sake.

Japanese>English

New Year's sake (2) - Women's tears When I went back to my parents' house, my father bought this sake. It seemed to be a recommendation from Aoki Shoten. With all due respect, I had never heard of this sake and it was unknown to me. When I opened the bottle, there was not much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness and gradually start to feel the alcohol, and it ends up being dry. From the naming, you would expect it to be intensely dry. It is easy to drink. There are still many sake that I do not know about, and sake is very deep.

Japanese>English

Another round of drinks as recommended.

The 4th Regular Sake Sharing Party: Bring Your Own Sake (Part 6) I thought 4 gou bottles would be too much for the number of people, so I brought a single gou bottle for tasting. (This was the sake that hit me the hardest at this year's Niigata Sake-no-jin.) (For some reason, you can buy it at Yodobashi.com.) (I know this is a duplicate check-in, but just for the record)

. Niigata Sake No.3 (last) A bottle of "Senki no Ippon" (a bottle of sake for a special occasion) received as a souvenir from Niigata. It is named after the head brewer of the Shirotaki Sake Brewery in Kouzenjosui. The color is clear and colorless. The aroma is full of fruity melon! The taste is a concentrated sweetness of rice, The taste is sweet, but not cloying at all, The taste is sweet and sweet, but not cloying at all. It was an authentic sake that hit you right in the throat 😊. The rice polishing ratio is 35%.... I am not sure if this is why it has this aroma and sweetness 🤲.

Sweetness Flamboyant Fruity Bitterness Graceful Umami Peachy Juicy

Smells like pineapple. It is delicious. The juiciness, bitterness, and robust umami, the pineapple-like acidity and flavor, the refined sugary sweetness, and the rice flavor that reminds you that sake is made from rice are all present in the final stages, with the bitterness spreading and lingering for a long time. The bitterness accumulates. This is the kind of food that makes a good meal, and when you eat a meal with it, the meal is good!

Japanese>English

After having enjoyed Omachi Jungin before, this time I tried Rikuwada Junmai Nama, and when I opened the bottle, the fruity aroma...sweetness, good bitterness in the aftertaste...well balanced...it's just great! No bitterness at all....delicious 😋...rather than a food sake 🍶, you can sip this sake 🍶 as it is...with the usual "tuna kamatoro" from my dad's place.... I'm enjoying it...

Japanese>English

Thin rose-like smell, apple as the temperature rises. It is thick. There is a sense of sweetness and rice that is not too assertive. When you try to swallow it, you feel as if the taste has disappeared, and then there is a bitter taste on your tongue. I don't know what it is, but it makes my meal go further than usual. It is delicious! Drinking this makes me eat a lot of food 🥗🍣. Day 3. Strong smell of floral blue fruits and a little bit of alcohol. It is thick and sweet, with less bitterness and umami. It has a nice aftertaste and you will not get tired of drinking it.

Smells like lemon. Slightly carbonated, fruity rice flavor, sweet and sour, like drinking from Masu, bitter and sour aftertaste. The lid is orange. Day 2. Relaxed and drinkable without any sugar. Just right sake.

Japanese>English

(ますますます +. We had Takasago from Kiyamasa Shuzo 😀. It was completely different from Jikan. I'm not sure if I'd drink it with refrigeration, or if the aroma would be milder. No? I'm not sure if it's too acidic or not when I drink it 🤔. I didn't like it, so I heated it up and it turned into a different kind of sake. I found the heated Takasago to be delicious 😀. Kaned (*´∇*)🍶🍶🍶🍶
