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.

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

Very good with salted fish Easy to drink dry

The one I bought at the Kisegawa venue of the Shiga brewery opening event. It has a strong alcohol taste with a lot of gusto. It has a strong sweetness and umami of rice. It is better at room temperature, but it is also good on the rocks or with soda. After a week, it still has a strong alcoholic taste, but I think the sweetness has increased.

Japanese>English

There is no mention of it, but it is probably nama sake. It is not labeled as Nama-shu, but according to the information on the Internet, the label on the back of the bottle says it needs to be kept chilled, which means it is Nama-shu. Am I right? The rice is Ginbukiyo and Nihonbare. It also looks like a raw sake. It does not feel as spicy as the sake level, and although it is spicy, there is a good balance of sweet and spicy. The taste is light and refreshing. The spiciness finishes with a lingering sweetness. There is a good amount of graininess.

Japanese>English

There are still many sake breweries in Shiga that I have not tried. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu, but it is also very drinkable and does not try to be carried away by the current style of easy-drinking.

I wanted to try my first Osaka sake, Akushika, but I found Kurehaaru at my favorite izakaya... a traditional local sake. It's a good sake for a mid-meal drink. Yes! Local sake. The flavor is as expected.

Japanese>English

After enjoying Fushimi's soft water hot springs in Kyoto, I spent the last part of my trip in Osaka👍. Since it was a special occasion, we had a drink at Kurehaaru, which we hadn't had in a year, and some oden and kushikatsu! The aroma is almost imperceptible. It has a refreshing taste on the palate, but the robust flavor of the rice comes on later. Still, it is lighter than other Osaka sake and has a moderate sweet and spicy taste. It has no habits and goes perfectly with oden ✨.

Japanese>English

Kureshun that was at the place I went to eat today. I thought it must be pure rice, but the sweetness won out. But it was my first time to drink sake from Osaka, so I enjoyed it. Goes well with soba noodles.

2021/06/28 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The design and color of the bottle is very stylish. When you open the bottle, the aroma is like muscat. It's light and fresh in the mouth. You can feel the sweetness of the roundness of the aroma. The more you drink, the more fruity it becomes. This may be a sake for women.

Japanese>English

October 7, 2022 Evening drink at home. It was the day of a local festival, so I decided to have something to drink. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a long time. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a while, and opened the bottle. The stylish bottle and label reminded me of wine. The bottle and label are fashionable, but it is made using the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai-Hashiroshi". I heard that it is made by the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai Hashimoto". It is an easy-drinking bottle with a pronounced rice flavor and acidity. It is an easy-drinking bottle. It was delicious with I enjoyed it with manatsuo, maiwashi sashimi, etc.

Japanese>English

I drank it at the Sake Festival in Antwerp. ☑️ buy again: deep taste, slightly acidic. 4/5

This sake is made by Shimazaki Shuzo in Nasukarasuyama City, Tochigi Prefecture. Smooth on the tongue and sweet in taste, this is a sake to be drunk slowly.

Japanese>English

Smooth texture on the tongue. It is a delicious sake with matured flavor and sweetness. It goes down your throat and has a deep flavor.

Japanese>English

Special sake that I got as a gift when visiting the shuzo. It is new year blended koshu released from the brewery every new year time. It blended the Daiginjo from year 1989, 2001 & 2013. Surprisingly, its still very light body - unlike other koshu which makes you too full. I like the aroma, while soy sauce and umami is significant, you can also feel the raisin, dried grapes inside. On palate it leans more towards coffee, toffee & dark chocolate. Serving hot is a good choice too.

A souvenir from a business trip to Niigata. My colleague introduced me to Miyakoya and I bought it. It was a very tasty sake with the beautiful lightness and umami of Niigata. The bonito was also very nice and fatty, so it made for a good dinner.

Japanese>English

According to my brother-in-law, "Yesterday's makimizu is soooo good, but today's is punchy for the percentage. My brother-in-law was eating wasabi (S&B) as a snack for sake while saying so. That one has more punch. ☆

Japanese>English

I was drinking it on 7/1. It is aromatic, fruity, sweet from the rice, and refreshingly delicious. Niigata is a great place after all! My daughter had it with her lunch of seared nodoguro (northern bluefin tuna) 😊My daughter had it with her lunch of hegisoba (buckwheat noodles) and tarekatsu (pork cutlet with sauce) and drank it with takachiyou. Yum! She mumbled like Mr. Purgatory and only gave me a small bite 🤣.

Local sake from Fukui. It has a refreshing and mild taste. It has a slight yellow tinge. It is a summer sake to drink on a hot day, chilled to a crisp.

Japanese>English

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka_55 Fukui Prefecture Booth ⑦ Hatakeyama Sake Brewery is located in Imajo, an inn town in Minami-Echizen-cho, Nanjo-gun. Representative brands are Yuki Kirara and Hyakkibune. ◉Yuki Kirara Sakahomare Junmai Daiginjo The flavor is citrusy, acidic, and slightly reminiscent of yogurt. It is quite likeable and delicious. It is a small brewery with only three people working on it, but they will be awarded the Kura Master Platinum in 2023 for this sake. When I drink Sakahomare, I often associate it with yogurt with citrus.

Polishing ratio 40%, SakaHomare 15%, Sake degree +1, Acidity 1.8 3,630 yen Beautiful and muscat-like. I thought it was interesting to see the gap between the sake quality and that of the rough or first pressing 🤔. I forgot to take a picture of it, so I borrowed it from Mr. Neemuchi.

My father bought it for me as a souvenir from his trip to Aomori. The nose has a faintly acidic aroma. In the mouth, there was a delicate acidity from the sake yeast and a calm, gentle sweetness and richness. It was a crisp sake, typical of Sakuta's special pure sake. It was delicious, but it was not so good when it was warmed up 🤔.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ This restaurant is owned by a master from Hirosaki, so it is an Aomori attack. At first I thought it was a little peculiar, but it is rather tasty.

Japanese>English

Actually? Surprisingly, Aomori's alcoholic beverages that you haven't been drinking This is also a first for me, Sakuta, freshly brewed, ibushigin It's refreshing and delicious 😋. Gentle sweetness and gentle acidity. Clear, light, but not dry. But is it dry? When you say it like that, it has a kind of "smoked silver" feeling? Not flashy or glamorous, but a nice working image? 🥳
