Salmon Marche Week. Memory is hazy. Records are illegible. Here is the record. Kaga no Tsuki no Heating.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Hakutsuru Nishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture. This sake is gorgeous and very elegant. The balance between sweetness and fresh citrus bitterness is just right. This sake is very good and makes the sake cups go up and up. Under 2,000 yen for this specs and this deliciousness may be a bargain. It was delicious. ❣️

Japanese>English

I bought it because it was in Hankyu. I've had a sake called "Kaga no Tsuki no Niji" before, but I wonder if the contents are the same. It is thin and cloudy. It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a light pineapple flavor. The second half is quite pungent. There is something gentle in the mouthfeel that is unique to saké squeezed in a bag, isn't there?

This is my first New Year's Day back in my hometown Osaka. This year, my parents invited us to their department store Osechi. My sister and her husband brought me a bottle of Okutanba as a celebratory sake. You can feel the sweetness of the rice in the beginning, but it changes to a dry taste in the middle to the end. It is a perfect match for the richly flavored Osechi and fatty yellowtail sashimi. It is said that the sake degree is +5 (dry), but I feel that it is +2~3 (slightly dry?). I guess. Anyway, it was a delicious sake. Thanks to my sister and her husband!

Japanese>English

The sake my sister and her husband served me at New Year's was so good that I decided to pick up another brand from the same brewery. Okutanba Junmai Ginjo. This is Yamana Shuzo's regular sake. As stated on the label, the brewery has a long history, having been founded in Kyoho. The Edo period (^_^;) is amazing. It was my wife's fourth birthday today. I really wanted to go out to eat, but the situation was such that we had a takeout party at a yakitori restaurant and drank at home. Thank you for your continued support. I had a cold glass of sake. Oh, dry? It's been a while since I've had a dry, crisp sake. Even though it's light and refreshing, you can still feel the taste of the rice right after you put it in your mouth. At the same time, there is a sense of alcohol, but the aftertaste is short, so it gives a refreshing impression. According to the brewery's website, it has a sake strength of +1. ＋Hmm? +1? It's not dry, is it? Once again, I realized that the accuracy of my tongue sensor is disappointing (tears). Well, everyone has their own way of feeling.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Okutanba 🍶The aroma is subdued, the sake is light and clean, with a soft sweetness and a short, sharp finish 😊It goes well with Kaisendon, another bottle I want to drink again ✨.

My impression is that this sake has a fresh, blue feeling among the Takezumi brands. It also has a grassy feel. It has a powerful wildness. It conveys a strength that seems to be unaffected even if it is laid down to rest.

Japanese>English

Is this Takezumi's first low-alcohol original sake? It seems to be. The aroma is a bit aged, but there is a sourness and a light gassy feeling. It is claimed to be dry, but the low alcohol content and the aforementioned characteristics make it easy to drink. It also has a fruity taste in the mouth for a moment.

Nama sake that can be stored at room temperature, as is typical of the major companies. It's very heavy and drinkable. Sweet and spicy? Creamy like nuts and butter. Junmai is only a little over 1,000 yen including tax, so it is very cost-effective. It seems to have good aging potential, so it might be good to let it sit for a while.

٩٩٩@🍶🍶🍶🍶 We opened a bottle of Taiheikai today😄. I've only had Taiheikai 1314 once and it's been a while since I've bought it ✨😀😀. Almost no aroma 🤔In the mouth, it is fire-brewed but the sensation of freshness fills the mouth. It's a good combination of matured and fresh 😚😊Mellow and calm with a good umami and a crisp acidity 😋. I don't know if it is suitable for today's suddenly cooler weather, but it was delicious . I don't know, but it was delicious 🥳.

Japanese>English

I wish you the best of luck with this one: 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we had the Taiheikai 😀. The aroma is mild and when you drink it, it's fresh and fruity with a slight swoosh😄The acidity comes at the end but just right✨. It was a modern type of sake😙.

Gassy, white wine-like acidity and sweetness. A hint of bitterness. Muscat-like aroma. Delicious.

(沒沒沒) ❣🍶🍶🍶🍶 I had my first Izumibashi today 😀. I can hardly smell the aroma 🤔I can taste the robust umami and slight sweetness on the palate 😚It's so refreshing and easy to drink 😊. It also seems to be recommended to be heated on the back, so I'm going to give it a try even though it's hot ✨. The aroma has opened up with umami aroma 😄It becomes smooth and delicious on the palate and the aftertaste is clean and disappears quickly 😋. Both were delicious 🥳.

Japanese>English

This new brew has a pleasant lightness and freshness. It had a slight sweetness and a fruitiness to it. It also has a complex taste, I guess you could say it's full-bodied. I can't help but drink it! A rustic snowman is also very cute É It looks cloudy, but it's not nigorizake. Rakufumai is a brand of rice. It seems to be a light sake. Day 3, the sweetness and acidity is a little stronger now! Day 4, more flavor! Yummy.

(Translated by ∇🍶🍶🍶+ Today we got Izumibashi's Snowman label 😀. The aroma is clear and refreshing 🤔On the palate, it has a clean acid taste and a beautiful? Mature? It has a good balance of sweetness and umami 🥰It is an easy to drink sake 😚👍. I felt it was like a light, light sake 🥳.

I bought some sushi with my favorite boiled conger eel besides western style snacks at the department store.... I opened the bottle thinking it would go well with this dry sake... ^ ^ The aroma is of rice with a harsh taste ⁈It's hard to describe σ(^_^;) It has a dry and sharp taste, but I thought it didn't go well with the sweet sauce of conger eel (T .
