Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix㉗ Since there was only a short time left, we decided to choose one sake from each brewery separately to share! Polishing ratio 70%, Sake degree -1, Alcohol 18%. It has a gaseous taste and is sweet and delicious. I liked it better than the Shiraoi I've had in the past. I might buy it again if I have a chance.

Compare with Wakanami Junmai Ginjo. This one is also sweet, but compared to the Wakaha, both the sweetness and sourness are less pronounced. This one has a crisper aftertaste and is more suitable for sipping.

A brewery that specializes in aged sake serves sake made for aged sake as undiluted sake. It's been about two years since it was made, so maybe it's been sleeping in the shop? It doesn't have a nigori feeling at all. It has a certain aged feeling, but it's clearly different from the old one. It's not fruity, but it's sweet. It is not fruity but sweet. The sourness is strong and it is like a thick honey. It is sweet, but some people may feel the alcohol in the latter half is pungent.

Japanese>English

The Year of the Rabbit will soon be over, so I decided to open the bottle. Time flies............................................. When the bottle is opened and poured, the aroma is full of bitterness like chocolate. The mouthfeel is surprisingly mellow and rough, and the taste is very chocolaty. The balance between sweet and astringent umami and mildness makes it seem that way, and it is a delicious taste that can only be described as chocolate ✨. It has a unique old sake taste, but I think it is one of the easiest to drink! And the aftertaste is also choco choco choco... 🍫. It was the first time for me to buy and drink it properly, but I guess it is delicious because it is from an old sake brewery! If I see it again, I'll buy it 😌.

Japanese>English

Needless to say. I am so happy to have found this sake 🍶. Too good to be true 🤤.

It's my first time to drink Hakuin Masamune. It's a sake I've never had the chance to drink before. I've been drinking a lot of sweet and sour sake lately, so I thought I'd try some dry sake. Danrei Dry. It has a moderate aroma and is dry enough to drink with a meal.

At home. This is the first time I have had Concept Workers Selection, Aged Sake. When I poured it into a glass, it was slightly colored, and the aroma had a strong liquor feel to it. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel a tingling sensation all over your tongue, and the alcohol that passes through your nose is very strong. I don't know if it's because I've heard it's an aged sake, but for some reason it feels like whiskey in the throat. This is the impression I got right after opening the bottle. I'd like to savor it slowly and carefully. On the second day, the fruity aroma and the mouthfeel became mellow.

Japanese>English

Nice to meet you sake With a refreshing aroma, pleasantly slight effervescence, and a clear throat, this is a sake that fills your mouth and makes you want to sip it in one quick gulp. Accompanied by grilled Spanish mackerel with miso

Japanese>English

This is the second one today at the party! Purchased at the usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten 720ml 📌 ¥1,595 The aroma is fruity, the color is beautiful, and the mouthfeel is again clean and easy to drink 👍I can taste a little bitterness a little later, but I don't dislike it💕. It goes down smoothly and smoothly. It's great 😋 and the pace is very fast 😋. I'm glad my mother-in-law enjoyed it! My daughter in Tokyo joined us online and it's a really fun party 💕. I am so happy💕!

The last of the three drinks is here 🍶. Harada Junmai Ginjo Hal Araubashiri The aroma of wood like cedar, the strong aroma of rice, the soft umami, and the gentle aftertaste. As I mentioned before, the acidity was noticeably stronger than the "Harada Gengetsu" I've had so far 🤔. It has a clean and beautiful taste, so this is delicious 😋.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival. It has a nice tropical fruit-like sweetness and flavor with a tangy, slightly effervescent taste. Finishes with bitterness. I've rarely had Harada, but I'd like to try more. Even after a few days, it still has a gaseous taste, but the bitterness is more pronounced than when it is freshly opened.

Japanese>English

Discover Sake in Yamaguchi Prefecture✨. This is our first check-in in Yamaguchi Prefecture! So, Manager! Harada, please! Goes well with meat dishes? Lamb, then! Take a bite... it's rich! Delicious! Dry and full of rice flavor! I could feel it! As the manager said, it's as good as any meat dish! Everyone, I highly recommend 🍖×Harada.

(🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶+ Today I had my first glass of Drunken Heart, which I bought at Hiroshima Station when I was in Hiroshima City on business 😋. The aroma is mild 🤔I can feel the umami of rice in the mouth 😚 I can feel a little sweetness, but it goes down smoothly 😊. I felt it is a delicious sake that can be enjoyed with food or as a stand-alone sake 🥳.

This is Drunken Mind Soft Water Brewing, Bottle Enclosed Junmai-shu Hiyaoroshi. It is a mellow and delicious sake with sweet taste and good acidity.

Japanese>English

We bought it at Shiramizu Sake Shop in Takaramachi, Kasuga City, Fukuoka Prefecture. The owner was very kind and explained a lot about sake, and when I told him I prefer fruity sake, he recommended this sake. When I asked him about the meaning of "oishu", he told me that it means to store new sake at a low temperature for a long time. It was a good learning experience. It stung me because I like it sweet. Thank you to the owner who introduced me to this delicious sake.

It was bottled on the morning of 2/3 and opened on the evening of 2/4 🌇😚It's probably a Risshun morning pressing, but the label is different from everyone else's 🤔. The bottle was opened with a light puff 😘It has a muscat aroma and a smooth, fresh mouthfeel😊The acidity is moderate and it has a nice gentle sweetness and umami 😘It was a delicious sake 🥳.
