Purchased at Seibu-Chichibu station. It has a classical Japanese sake flavor. It is better to drink it as it is with strong flavored food than to drink it as it is. ⭕️ A robust Junmai sake... maybe not my favorite...

Japanese>English

I drank it all so fast: ❗️ It was a tangy, fizzy and tasty rice flavor.

Japanese>English

This is my first Chichibu Nishiki 🍶. Here's a souvenir from camp: 🏕️ Refreshing and easy to drink✨ It's a junmai ginjo, but it goes down like water 😛.

It is a gift from an acquaintance 🍶I will eat it with my eldest and second son 😊. It is a gift from an acquaintance 📌720ml ¥ gift Here's a quick rice. The aroma is subdued. The color is beautiful. The mouthfeel is refreshing and the sweetness of the rice comes first and the umami comes later 💕Omachi is the best 💕💕💕💕. It is also delicious on its own 👍 It is a very good sake that does not interfere with food💕💕💕 3 guys ran out in no time😅 Thanks to my acquaintance 😊👍 Today's pairing is stir-fried eggplant with miso! They go so well together 😊👍

Japanese>English

This month, I'm going to focus on Nara's local sake since I've been drinking from other prefectures for a while now 😬. The first one is Junmai Ginjo from Mitsumorosugi. This is the first time I've tried the kanji version of Mimuro, but it's calmer than the hiragana version, not too sweet and not too spicy. It lacks impact, but it's well balanced and easy to drink, making it an excellent food sake 😚 I enjoyed it with a side of sardine oil sardine🙏.

It is light and dry 亘亘ぐぐぐぐぐぐぎ It was delicious at the destination of a business trip (^-^)/.

Japanese>English

I have had a little Mutsu Hassen, but Mutsu Otokoyama is completely new to me! A while ago, I had the impression that Mutsu Hassen lost all its flavor after the second day, but recently it has been able to keep its flavor quite well. What do you think of Mutsu Otokoyama? The aroma is a botanical scent similar to that of grass or earth, but only slightly. But when you take a sip, you will be surprised! It has a gorgeous capsule-like aroma similar to that of Mutsu Hassen! I don't think I've ever experienced such an aroma with such a strong standing aroma! The taste is definitely less sweet, but has a good umami. The taste is certainly not too sweet, but it has a good umami flavor, and yet it has a gorgeous overtone. It is dry, but popular, like a "Sanjyo," "EXILE," or "Ishihara Gundan"? Something like that. I don't know if the aroma has calmed down or if the taste has mellowed, but it is easier to drink and tastes even better from the second day! It's definitely dry, this one! It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a sharp dry taste! This is the kind of delicious sake that goes down so smoothly that you find yourself drinking it all up.

Japanese>English

Sweet and dry drink comparison 🍶✨✨✨. I went to Urahasen last year. This year I'm going to Uraotosan😁😁. Dry and refreshing It is a good place to enjoy a meal. Personally Urahasen for sake alone 🍶. For pairing, I'd go for Ura Otokoyama I guess 😊🍶🍶.

It is Oku-no-Matsu Special Junmai. We drank it chilled. The aroma is mild, but when you put it in your mouth, it is fruity and delicious sake. You can buy it at the supermarket. It's delicious 😋

Japanese>English

Junmai Ginjo Genshu with 55% polished rice. It is full of freshness because it is Arabashiri and of course the aroma is very strong. When you pour it into a glass, it has a light cloudiness characteristic of arabashiri, with fine bubbles - it has a gorgeous ginjo aroma, with notes of green apple, white peach and green melon. When you drink it, you can feel the fine bubbles through your throat and it is very fresh. It's delicious!

At home. Fullness and sharpness seem to be the selling points. It has a fruity, sour and delicious taste in the mouth, followed by a bit of bitterness. At the end, there is a refreshing crispness. It's easy to drink, and it's a little bit of a bad guy that you can't stop drinking.

Japanese>English

I bought two bottles of Nara sake since I've been skipping it for a while. Let's start with Kuramoto-san, a famous sake from Toki Touyama 😋 I've never tasted a new sake before, but this one shows off the charm of Yamada Nishiki to the fullest. I've never had a new sake before, but this one really shows off the charm of Yamada Nishiki. It's a great combination of water and rice 😆. I'd like to drink this with my sister Yasuko, just for Kuramoto, "Cheers! I'd love to drink it with you and your sister 😁.

Good evening, again for our first series, this time from Nara Prefecture, this brewery 💁‍♂️ KURAMOTO Ym64 SAKE-TEN 2022BY✨ This is a historical sake brewery, but they have changed their production in recent years to create a more modern lineup. They were recently featured on "Wakate no Yoake" (Dawn of the Young 🙌). This is the latter of the two lines, STANDARD LINE and BIT LINE. This is the latter of the two lines, STANDARD LINE and BIT LINE. The aroma is of clear herbs and sweet honey from the aging process of kijoshu. The taste also has a clear acidity on the attack for a moment, but soon bursts with a rounded sweet flavor and richness that is typical of kijoshu 😊The finish is light and dry and crisp, and you can just enjoy the lingering taste. I prefer the fresh one, but this sake has the goodness of aging and is very tasty to drink 😋.
