Good evening! 😀 It's June and the weather is like a cold rainy season, so I don't know what to wear 😅. Tomorrow, it's going to be 2 degrees lower than today. I wonder if the weather will continue to be so bad 😱. The general meeting at the end of last month was held at a local grand hotel, and the sake used was Nanafukujin Junmai from the Kiku no Tsukasa Sake Brewery. The sake used was Nanafukujin Junmai by Kikunoji Sake Brewery. It is not sticky-sweet, but rather light and easy to drink. If the sake is not made with the same level of care and attention as the all-you-can-drink sake, more and more people will leave the sake industry, and short-term tricks will not be effective these days. I enjoyed it very much! Thank you 😁.

This Sake surprised me. It starts sweet and fizzy then finishes dry. There is a soft mouth feel with a mild flavor of sweet pear. The finish is dry and clean. I am enjoying this as an after drink. 😃

A favorite of today's attendees who like dry food. Shichifukujin. The three of us killed three cups in an instant. It is delicious! Alcohol 16%. Rice: Hitomebore, etc. Rice polishing ratio 65 Sake degree +8 Acidity 1.8

The king of light and dry taste. It has a clean and refreshing taste. It is suitable for drinking with food. But it is also good for savoring the taste of the hardy rice It is also good for savoring. It is made from Gohyakumangoku at a 45% polishing ratio.

I went to Yamagata for the first time in a long time😊. I was allowed to drink sake at my uncle's house. Mellow and sake-like sake, just the way I like it for everyday drinking 😊. There was also some Asahitaka at night, but I don't remember drinking it. I forgot to take a picture 🥲.

Japanese>English

The aroma of the rice is very deep. The aftertaste is very strong.

Japanese>English

After all, I felt that the brewery has its own taste. The aftertaste is the taste of the brewery. This is one of the bottles I bought during the brewery tour.

Sugar Cooled Sake

Rice used is Yamae Nishiki It is supposed to be a sake that goes well with mushrooms, but in the end I did not pair it with mushrooms. However, it has a gentle sweetness, and it was just plain delicious. It also had a mushroom-like flavor, though it was only vaguely. Bitter and astringent tastes are close to that. It's a sweet sake, juicy, but clear and elegant on the palate. It was well balanced and certainly seemed to go well with mushroom dishes.

Japanese>English

This is the first Gassen in a year. It has a fruity aroma with a hint of acidity. Let's try it. It is a little sweet, but the acidity makes it not at all bitter! It is different from Natsuzumi and Yukizumi from the same brewery in both mouthfeel and feel.　A liquor store I am familiar with said confidently, "It's our hit product! I can understand why the liquor store owner I know so confidently said, "It's our hit product! It's just like a cup of tsukimi!　I recommend it. ‼️

Sweet aroma. Fresh and sweeter than expected. Unique sweetness like candy. Unique but interesting and delicious. The sweetness is like a floppy candy. More fruity than I expected, too. I think the Asahi Nikki Jusui Brewing I drank in the past also had a unique sweetness.

Japanese>English

Sakemonogatari in Kansai(*) It is a hiyaoroshi of honjozo with a slightly sweet taste and a sense of grain! It is well balanced, probably because it is a honjozo. I would definitely like to drink it with an appetizer! This year, we are only participating in outdoor events because we are still afraid of the new koro, but I think it is very nice to drink under the blue sky!

The third drink is Suijin. Asa Kai's masterpiece. No, this is the real thing. Just like the name "Dai-harakuchi" (very dry).

I've been seeing this sake regularly and was curious about it. When I tried it, I found it to be a dry, robust sake that made me order a side dish!

@Osawa of Sake Rice used is unknown Not fruity at all. It is not light and dry, and has aged well. The taste is a mellow type with a strong umami. The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing for a Daiginjo. It is what is called "the sake of sake.

Japanese>English

I stopped by Hashimoto Sake Brewery on my way to Yamanaka Onsen last year. The store is a bit like a museum, and you can learn a lot from the easy-to-understand explanations about the rice polishing ratio and the process of making sake. I was not able to taste the sake because I was the handle keeper, but the president recommended a lot of sake and my family was getting drunk (sweat). I drank it cold, but it was still dry. When I heated it up, it became soft, mellow, and easy to drink. The color is quite amber, so the polish may be shallow. Personally, I think drinking it at room temperature or hot is the right way to go. I like to drink sweet sake cold, but I'm starting to think it would be nice to drink dry sake hot ( ˘ω˘ ).

Japanese>English

The smell is gorgeous and fruity. The mouthfeel is surprisingly soft. Overall, it is elegant, with an image of umami that rolls around in the mouth rather than spreading all over the palate. There is no bitterness, acidity, or carbonation, so once you get into it, you can drink it without hesitation. Is this common to all Jyushiyo? It has a really strong and unique aroma.

I've been wanting to try this drink for a while ✨. Here, Nagano sake is rarely seen in liquor stores or supermarkets, but I found this at a nearby supermarket 👀 some kind of fair ❔. I love these classic and classy labels ♡. The taste is just like a classic sake 🍶. I didn't really feel the Nagano character, but it's an all-rounder that accepts a variety of snacks👍.

Tamamura Head Office, Shimotakai-gun, Nagano When I visited Nagano in October, I purchased this bottle of sake at a liquor store near Zenkoji Temple. I was attracted by the phrase "sake made from jikasai rice," which is grown without any pesticides and with only minimal organic fertilizers, so I bought it. It is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, and I was surprised at how clear the aroma and mouthfeel were! But the aftertaste is delicious with a terrible aftertaste and some miscellaneous flavors.

Shiga Kogen Honjozo Unique flavor. Sourness like Shaoxing sake.
