Made in the same brewery as Natural Selection. It is a dessert sake with a syrupy, honey-like flavor. It has a strange flavor that changes when drunk snow-cold or lukewarm.

I had never had it before, even though it is a staple of this restaurant! A rich aroma of mirin (sweet sake). Sweet and tasty, sour and light syrup. The rice is fluffy and delicious afterwards. The flavor spreads softly in the mouth, just like amazake. Surprisingly, it is not so sticky. It is like a dessert sake.

The taste is rich but light on the palate. It is even softer when heated. It has a moderate aromatic richness and a little bit of spiciness. It has a good balance and can be served with a wide range of food. It is a limited edition sake, but it has a standard taste. Mr. Ota lives in Kamakura. I was there just two and a half months ago, so I missed it a lot! Once again, Kamakura is a wonderful place! The restaurants that were introduced to us were all very unique and the food looked delicious!

I bought this Wakaba unfiltered sake in the summer and felt it was still young, so I let it sleep in the closet. It has a good balance of flavor, with the punch of unfiltered sake, but without losing the simple country feel of Wakaba. I put it in the closet again, but it was good enough. It's not Wakaba, but Higuchi Shinyo, a triple axel that is anything but rustic! The ROC is still very difficult, but I hope the Japanese will do their best to get on the podium!

(The regular product has a ripeness, but this one is relatively refined. It looks light but has a solid core, and there is still a sense of ripeness in the back. It shows its full potential when heated. The richness comes out well. When it cools down, the sweetness comes out well. I bought it from a sake brewer, and when I asked for sakekasu, they gave me a lot of it! Maybe it's because I buy from the sake brewer sometimes. It is very delicious when it is baked!

The freshly squeezed aroma... The sourness is strong on the palate, and there is a bitter aftertaste... Is it because it is freshly squeezed? It's a little rough. It's a good choice to drink with tuna and squid sashimi.

The first Kinokuniya Bunzaemon! It has the fresh aroma of unpasteurized sake and a smooth, non-viscous mouthfeel. When you drink it, the spiciness comes quickly, but in the end, it disappears, leaving the flavor of rice and a lingering aftertaste. It has a high alcohol content of 18 degrees, which makes it very drinkable, but it is also very refreshing and tasty.

Here's another one that was given to me. The aroma of the sake is very alcoholic. The taste is sweet and delicious. The aroma is the sake! You can feel a little acidity and bitterness in the finish. I think it is a bottle with a moderate heaviness in total. The taste is similar to that of Kadoden from among the already-checked-in products. The efficacy report says it is good at room temperature to warmed sake. It's a solid sake, so it's best not to chill it too much. It's good for summer! It was not a good one! Thank you for the food!

At home. The third Nara sake without permission - ‼️. Kita Sake Brewery is located in Gobo-cho, Kashihara City and was founded in 1718. My son used to play baseball and we used to go to Sato Yakuhin Stadium near here. This is the first time for us to visit there. The aroma is not so strong, but there is a slight sweetness and alcohol. When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the sweetness, sourness, dryness, and the gradual feeling of alcohol. Oh, is this the ultimate in dryness? For now, I will only taste it tonight and wait for tomorrow to see how it changes. There was almost no change in taste after the second day. It is dry, but it has a sweet taste and is not unacceptable.

Miyogiku is a sake brewery located near Kashihara Shrine. I bought a Junmai sake and this Honjozo sake. It has a very high density of flavor and richness even in hiya, and the acidity is enough to go well with the drinks! It is also very well balanced in terms of both comfort and drinkability! It is even better when heated! This is wonderful! I bought a small bottle the day before because I had to buy a lot of things at Ise Jingu Shrine, but I want to buy another 4 bottles! Before going to the Kashihara Shrine, we went around the tombs around the shrine, and especially the Unebiyama Northeast Mausoleum was amazing! It was scary! Furthermore, although I must have been to Kashihara Shrine when I was a child, it looks bigger than the image I had when I was a child. Normally it should look smaller than it did when I was a child, but it was the opposite. I guess I felt the greatness of Kashihara Shrine.

As time passed, the balance between bitterness and acidity improved and the flavor increased. This was my first time drinking this brand, but I was glad to have a bottle.

Purchased at Hankyu Umeda Main Store, 9th Traveling SAKE The cover of the flyer of this event Kuroemon 16th Generation Junmai Ginjo Miyamanishiki The brewer explained to us that the real flavor comes out around summer. I couldn't wait until the real flavor comes out 😅 I couldn't wait to buy it because I felt it was spicier than it was delicious. Jyugodai Kuroemon Junmai Hitogokochi I tasted this one and liked it, so I bought it. The aroma is soft and sweet. It has a soft sweet aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, it tastes sweet and bitter like a syrup. The aftertaste is clean and well balanced with the acidity. On the second day, the sweetness and umami are felt more than the bitterness, and it is a delicious sake that can be drunk smoothly.

Rice used is something from Kasama That's one word for the wonderful ‼️. I feel it's sophisticated and seamless. Full of flavor with a clean aftertaste. The price is high, but the level is also quite high. ‼️

This is what "dry and light" means. It has a clean aftertaste that does not linger. It is so refreshing that it even has a bitter taste.

Sake bought at a souvenir shop at Shinjo station when traveling in Yamagata Prefecture about a year ago. Drink before you forget It was fairly priced, but I can't help it if it's a 35% polished rice daiginjo. Mild aroma A sense of maturity like brown sugar Silky smoothness, just like the brand name Beautiful even if left at room temperature for a year Drink it while remembering the conversation with the lady at the souvenir shop and suppressing the desire to go on a trip again.

I ordered this because they said the money for this will be donated to the Noto earthquake. It will be hot 🍶. Oh no, there was only one left when I thought this was the Mexicali Tempura. It doesn't feel special, but it's a nice sake that goes perfectly with a meal. It wasn't stingy at all. I can't read the label. It's black, which is what a beginner in calligraphy did.

It is a dry sake with a crisp, mellow flavor from the ginjo brewing and junmai brewing. Although it is dry, you will not feel the dryness, and it becomes softer when heated. Excellent with sashimi, sushi and other fish dishes.

My first Kamekichi. And my first Marumori-san. Delicious food 😭I love Aomori cuisine! Sake is going fast. The first glass was Toyobai. The first glass was Toyobai, and the second was Kameyoshi! The taste is so unique...! LOL! It has no sweetness at all and tastes like it is being smoked. According to my sister, it is a sake version of highball. (She says it means it doesn't interfere with the meal. lol) I can't say it has no habits, but I can say it does. LOL! It was a strange sake in my opinion!
