It's been a long time since I've had a chance to try it. It is a sake limited to a certain liquor store in Fukuoka. This is very tasty. The aroma is not so much. The taste is juicy and melon-like. There is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste, which is also good. If you come to Fukuoka, I recommend you to buy it 🍶.

Japanese>English

☀️ This is the first time I've seen a drink without a label 🏷️. Instead it has a ribbon🎀 which makes it unique 🤩. There is an initial feeling of alcohol, but it is quickly followed by a sweetness. Soft sweetness with a melon flavor. It can be fluffed up as it is. A sake that tastes as unique as it looks 🍶.

Japanese>English

Leaving the new sake festival, we went to the second restaurant. The second party was at a soba restaurant on the restaurant floor of Amu Plaza Kumamoto, adjacent to the station. This soba restaurant has a great selection of sake 😁. The price is... no way 🤣. The second drink was Shashaemon I had this sake at this restaurant before, but I couldn't remember what it tasted like, so I ordered it. The moment I put it in my mouth, the gorgeous aroma spreads and sweetness, sourness, umami, and spiciness all come at once 😳. This feeling is like no other 😁. You can enjoy this on its own or as a food sake 🥰.

At my parents' house. Ottersai, which my father had bought as New Year's sake. It's delicious.

Tomin frozen at Nakamachidai.... It's still thawing and the ice is still puffy...it's so good😋I also thawed some hibernation oysters and had them as a snack...they were so plump! I'm impressed by the recent quick freezing technology. This sake is worth a try.

Japanese>English

The aroma is fruity and the taste is sweet and bitter, then sharp! The balance of sweetness and bitterness is exquisite. I've been drinking it with handmade spring rolls for a while now.

I tried it again last night, and I'm trying it hot again. It doesn't have much of an aroma, but it has a little color to it, and when I drink it, I feel a rush in my throat and stomach that warms my body.

Japanese>English

Sannomaru Autumn hiyaoroshi from Kaito Otokoyama Shuzo. There is almost no standing aroma, but the hint of aroma is pear. It is a junmai sake that was fire-aged before storage and bottled fresh. It has a rich flavor, but it is still fresh, so it is not hard to drink and before you know it, you will be back for more.

Japanese>English

20231216 I have never heard of this wine before even though I live in Fukushima. It is neither sweet nor dry, but delicious! It's a great wine for those in the know. It was really delicious 🍶! Thank you very much for your kindness.

@Hotel Emion Tokyo Pei Rice used is So-no-Mai, Chiba Prefecture's original sake rice. It seems to be a lineage with Omachi as its high grandfather. This is also a delicious sake that goes well with Japanese food. It is refreshing, and the sweetness comes on gradually. It is an all-around sake, not limited to Japanese food.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki The aroma is like muscat, with a slight sweetness and a crisp finish. There is no bitterness, but I felt it was a little sharp right after opening the bottle. But as I drank more and more, it became more refined, or rather, the taste was developed. ❗️ It has a good balance and is a versatile sake that can be served with any flavor or situation. ‼️ As expected of a flagship sake, it was delicious. ❣️

Sake given to me by a friend. It has a sweet taste. It is elegant and wonderful. I put it in the fridge to hold back my desire to drink more, as I think it will taste even better if I let it sit for a little longer. I wonder what kind of snacks I should make to go with this sake.

Japanese>English

It's a weekday... I'm taking a vacation for a reason 😅. A short trip from Shiga to Mie. It's been a long time since I've been on a drinking spree. Sake with bitter and sweet taste It's a good sake to feel the aftertaste on your tongue and drink it chibi-chibi♪

The taste is gentle from the first sip to the end of the nose.

At home. Cui Yu after a long time. It's more elegant and refined than Hanayup... Hmmm, I have the impression that it has been generalized. The aroma is green apple, the sweetness and sourness are well balanced, and the finish is sharp, so you can't help but drink too much. On the middle day of the week, I drank a good sake to get through the rest of the week, and nourished my wisdom.

Japanese>English

The brewery is famous for its "Hanayuup. Compared to "Hanayuup", the aroma is mild. The aroma is mild. The sweetness is moderate. and the umami is as strong as the Hanamup. and it cuts cleanly. As a food sake, it is more versatile. I think it is more versatile as a food sake.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild. The first sip is sweet, but gradually a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity spreads. The last part has a good spiciness and a nice sharpness. Although it is unfiltered, there is no heaviness, and it is smooth to the palate. After a few days of drinking, the sweetness has gone away and the acidity has risen, but it is also delicious. Hana Yuu is good, but Suiyu is as good as it gets.

When I went back to my parents' house, I didn't have any sake in stock, so I bought this bottle at a nearby supermarket. It was sold for about 1,000 yen in an ordinary supermarket that rarely stocks sake, so I honestly thought it would be good if I could drink it, but it turned out to be a very tasty sake that greatly exceeded my expectations 😆. It has an elegant sweetness and a light mouthfeel that breaks up nicely without any miscellaneous flavours, making it a good all-round sake that can be drunk alone or with food👍. The sake has been awarded the Gold Medal in the Wine Glass Sake Award 2020😄. It's a great sake to drink alone or with food.

Japanese>English

480 yen A clear peachy sour smell. When you shake it, you can smell the sparkling smell. Pear peach thin bitter taste. As you drink it, you can drink it like water, with a sense of rice in the distance. It is delicious. When it is heated up, the chestnut and rice taste comes out and it is refreshing. It is easy to drink. It seems to reset the inside of your mouth. Delicious both cold and warmed.

Sharon's favorite drink! At the sake shop Yamaya I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not. I chose two bottles that I have never drunk before. I wish I could have been able to drink them.

This Sake has a full mouth feel with a strong flavor of cedar and apple. It is also dry with a lingering finish. This is a great with strong flavored foods like kakuni.

marriageable age (esp. of a woman) Slight aroma, dark color. Soft attack. The taste is round and dry. It goes in smoothly and has a good sharpness.

Kunisake Fair 2025 It was a good dry sake with a very mild and full flavor! It seems to be very easy to get tired of drinking! And after drinking this, he also recommended the Niseko Special Junmai! This one had a more delicate side and the flavor was elegant! And the Shin Totsukawa Junmai, which was out of the picture! A rich, dry sake! The Hokkaido booth was kind of crowded and rushed!

Yamada Nishiki and Oita Mitsui. The flamboyance of the perimeter. Spiciness swells from the mid-palate and is released in a refreshing manner.

Japanese>English

It has a gorgeous yet robust taste with a lingering aftertaste. It was very good with hot pot, but it might not be good with something with a strong taste like kimchi.

Japanese>English

There was one more restaurant I wanted to visit in Asahikawa, and I went to Ogawa Shoten, which interacts with local izakaya in Obihiro. Here, they recommended Huataka from Oita Prefecture. I told them what I liked and decided on this one. It is refreshing but has a strong alcohol taste rather than a spicy taste. 16 degrees Celsius is a bit heavy, but it becomes softer when it is cooled down to a crisp, so it is quite tasty. I found myself drinking a lot of it because I wanted to unravel its complex flavors. The taste reminds me of sake from Kyoto or Gifu. I'm looking forward to another sake meeting at Tokachikan this fall.

Oniyasha Centrifuged Junmai Ginjo Nigori Sake. It is a delicious sake with a creamy mouthfeel and a bitter taste that comes after the umami and goes down the throat. I think it's a slightly dry nigorizake. It's delicious 😋The label has a picture of the top and bottom. The direction of the label is reversed from the normal Oniyasha label.

Firm, dark sake flavor. No aftertaste at all, and it goes away cleanly. It seems to be a good match with peculiar snacks.
