It's been a long time since I've drunk a bottle of Raizen ❗️. The aroma is subdued for a Daiginjo🤔. The taste is generally dark and robust😊. I can feel the sweetness and flavor of the rice but I can also feel the alcohol as well😅. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but it's a good thing.

My first brand❗️ I've never had a Kamikimoto before, but I bought this one because of the nama-shizukuri 😊. It has a sweetness and aroma like melon botanicals, and a little bit of a thickening effect❗️ I've never had a Kamikimoto before, but I was drawn to this one by the nama-shizukuri 😊 It has a melon green aroma, sweetness, and a bit of a thickening effect.

☆☆☆☆☆ In order not to drink up the Supin Taichi in one day, I opened the second bottle. Refreshing and gentle sweetness. It's light to drink, but you can also taste the flavor. It's low alcohol, so I'm sure I'll finish it.

Next is Tamahagane. What a cool name! I'm attracted to names like that. Kamitachika has a robust sake feel. The mouthfeel It has a dense sweetness and umami, and a slow-moving sensation. The aftertaste is a bit of alcohol, and despite the heaviness of the initial attack, it finishes with a nice acidity and bitterness. I am not so good at Honjozo, but this was delicious! Thank you!

Part 3 of 3 (specials) for drinking comparison. This is already middle class. It is sharp and dry. It did not have as much ginjo as described in the menu, but it had depth. But somehow, I still didn't have enough to drink today.

It has a mild taste. The aftertaste is refreshing.

I had received a nice, affordable nodoguro and matched it with this dish. The taste of the nodoguro was very good, and combined with the refreshing acidity, it quickly became empty.

Farewell party connected by sake rice. From the Hokuriku Sake Rice Series and the Sake Kingdom of Niigata Prefecture, Koshitanrei and Tokimizu Meisui Tatomo Junmai Ginjo, a gem from GINigata. It may be light, but it is rather deep. It tends to be umami. As expected from Niigata. At Joetsu Takata Funakae

Japanese>English

It was during the week, but I had a light drink with what I received. The flavor was so good that I ended up emptying it. I am looking forward to another bottle of premium.

There is clearly more lees than the previous Yamadanishiki. When you take the supernatant first, the taste opens up from the beginning, with a thick umami and sweetness spreading. The Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo reached this state at room temperature, but this one's flavor comes through even at low temperatures. When the lees are stirred, a crisp acidity is added and the aftertaste becomes clear. The full-bodied aroma comes out of the nose, and the taste becomes highly complete at once. This one is also insanely delicious! I've been drinking a lot of Omachi sake lately, and I wonder if this complex and thick sweet flavor is a characteristic of Omachi.

Japanese>English

Yamadanishiki ver. Compared to Omachi's lees sake, it is slightly more lees and has a 1% lower alcohol content (17%). The bottle size is also changed from 500ml for Omachi to No. 4. The aroma is like rice itself and rice malt. The pure sweetness that is typical of Yamadanishiki passes through the nostrils with a slightly thick texture, and there is a slight bitterness that seeps into the tongue. A slight bitterness seeps into the tongue and a tangy sourness on the tip of the tongue. The taste that spreads in multiple directions in the mouth is like a rocket firework. As the day goes by, the acidity will become more rounded and a sense of unity will emerge.

It says Gotenzakura in small letters on the lower left corner of the front label, but I was told that it was a PB from a local liquor store. Sake made with LED dream yeast from Tokushima🍶. The aroma on the nose is gorgeous and fruity. When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the smooth sweetness and umami. It also has a fruity overtone. This sake has a good aroma. It was delicious 🍶✨.

Gotenzakura doburoku, which my father somehow bought on Amazon.com. I remember drinking (or eating?) doburoku like porridge last year, but I can't remember the brand. I remember drinking (or eating?) doburoku like porridge last year, but I can't remember the brand...it's been a long time since then. The initial aroma is faintly sweet with a hint of koji malt. In the mouth, there is a slight sourness like plain yogurt and a slight sweetness of rice. I was able to drink it quite refreshingly while chewing on the rice. I guess it's like a sweet sake with a lot of sake lees, but with much less sweetness. It was delicious ✨.

Japanese>English

Light doburoku with a sweet sake-like sensation. It has a firm rice sweetness and a natural taste.

For a mellow aroma, Fruity sweetness. Compared to "Daishinshu", It has a clean aftertaste, It has a more refined taste.

Limited brand of Daishinshu: 🇯🇵 Buy it during your pilgrimage to the Holy Land✨. Only about 10 dealers carry this brand. You can find anything in the Holy Land........ 🤣. The ginjo aroma is green apple 🍏. It's been a long time since I've had a Daishinshu, but we share the same aroma 😤. I wonder if the sake rice is Hitogokochi or Miyamanishiki? (→ later I checked and it was Hitogochiki 😳) The balance of sweetness and umami, and then acidity to finish is perfect🤣.

It was a gift ✨. New politics again! First time for Uhei Sato It's so delicious ✨. It's a little fizzy and sweet, just like Shinsei. It's very easy to drink, but... You can feel the flavor of the rice well ☺️. I was going to drink it for my birthday, but I couldn't resist the temptation of Shinsei.
