Smells like walnuts? Gorgeous cemedine, smell of alcohol after some time. Mild mouthfeel, then sweetness like three warm sugar, light pungency, aging aroma, as you swallow, the taste becomes milder, and gradually bitter from sweetness. Alcohol 20%, well 20% is intoxicating.

This is delicious. I sent a bottle of Yamagata wine to my cousin who lives in Nagoya, and this is my return gift. I'm satisfied with this sake because it has the feeling I like. It's good at room temperature. It rides softly on the tongue with a sweetness that flows easily. I like Halley's Comet.

I'm eating meat. I got the recommended liquor. It's a cooking liquor, right? It was a nostalgic taste that reminded me of my school days Let me also tell you that we have a lot of delicious sake because we purchase it from Oyama.

This is from the father of my oldest son's wife💕Thank you💕 I received this 📌720ml ¥ 🍶. Here's the rice 🍶. Not much aroma. The color is a pale gold. The taste is refreshing 💕 A little sweetness from the rice 💕 A little bit of sweetness from the rice💕 A little bit of spiciness comes a little later 💕I don't dislike it 👍It's very stable 😁It's like an all rounder 👍 I didn't get the same impression as the label on the back 😅

Japanese>English

It's Tori Aristocrat, so this is the only sake I have.... It was cold in the restaurant, so I made it hot. It smells like alcohol.... It's hard to drink. When the temperature dropped to room temperature, it became easier to drink. I've had it cold before, but it's the type of sake I'd expect to be warmed, but it doesn't go well with warmed sake...

Memorandum📝. The most addictive sake in hiyaoroshi. It has a bitter and smoky taste, The maturity of the sake envelops you with a roundness from start to finish. It is a sense of security from childhood, surrounded by babysitters. It is an excellent sake that can be served cold or hot. I drank two bottles in one season.

At the Fukushima Sake-Miso and Soy Sauce Festival. A sparkling sake with secondary fermentation in the bottle, it is characterized by bursting bubbles and an elegant taste. The alcohol content is low at 12 degrees.

Started work today. Fukushima Prefecture, Kawanuma-gun. Toyokuni Sake Brewing Co. Toyokuni Tokubetsu Junmai Yamadanishiki Nama-Nagara Sake Toyokuni is famous for its "Ippou-self" (Higashi) from Ishikawa County, and Toyokuni from Aizu, Kawanuma County, where we will drink this time. I found out that there are two Toyokuni Shuzo Goshi companies with the same name. The brewer here told me that they no longer have to indicate the year of production. He told me that this brewery is identified by its own production number, NP-23C, where NP is not known, but 23 is the year 2023, and C is March, since the months go up alphabetically from A to January. I bought a bottle of March released Nama sake in November 😁. I drink it cold. The color is light for an aged sake, just enough yellow to be discernible. The aroma is sweet and mature, like burnt caramel. It also has a honey-like flavor. The mouthfeel is surprisingly light, and the flavor has the extremes of sweetness and nuttiness that are typical of a matured wine. After swallowing, the matured aroma lingering in the nose expands and the concentrated sweet and delicious taste increases. A bit of sourness at the end. It has the juiciness and depth of a pure sake, and is rich, mellow, and delicious. Ingredients: Rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Polishing ratio:60% Flattened rice Rice used: Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture Alcohol Content:16% Alcoholic Beverage

Rice used is Kinmon Nishiki Meikyojo-jimizu" is another brand of Osawa Sake Brewery. This is a good sake. ❣️ It has strength and acidity that is typical of a sake brewed from a traditional sake yeast stock, and the aging process has given it a round umami taste. It has a moderate alcohol content, and this flavor is very relaxing. I want to drink it again!

Japanese>English

Chilled Mouthfeel: smooth, but not only easy to drink, but also umami. Middle: Thick umami and sweetness, with a hint of acidity and a touch of alcohol. Finish: A slight lingering aftertaste. Hot Mouthfeel: acidity, but still smooth and firm. Medium Unlike Hiya, there is no acidity and it is delicious. Al-ness is still there. Aftertaste: Heavy, including miscellaneous flavors.

Japanese>English

Today we have a Saku no Seiki Namikage Junmai Daiginjo from Saku, Nagano Prefecture❗️ The aroma is of a complex brandy-like aroma of the yeast, ❗️ and after a sip it has a rich texture on the tongue, it tastes like brandy or an old sake with a complex flavor as if it has been aged for many years. ❗️ and looking at the bottle closely, it was shipped this year but bottled in January 2020, so it has been almost 5 years, and it was bottled 4 years and 10 months ago, so it is almost 5 years old. It's almost like a secret sake that has been aged for more than 5 years❗️ ambitious sake⭕️

The sake is made and labeled in a way that takes advantage of the climate of Oarai, Ibaraki. It is refreshingly dry when served cold. When heated, it becomes more floral and friendly. I'd like to try it with sea bream or flatfish from Oarai.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Oarai-grown Chiyonishiki It is more rough than fresh. However, it is not rough at all. It has a refreshing taste, and the umami of the rice spreads slowly. I've had many Tsuki no I's with this kind of atmosphere! I think it will probably become milder and more flavorful with aging, but I like it better as it is because it has its own personality.

Japanese>English

Banana like aroma. The mouthfeel is slightly sweet. After that, the dry taste or the feeling of running spreads to the mouth. There is a hint of bitterness, but the aftertaste is sweet. Tsuki no Ii has a new toji (brewer) this season, and they are making sake under a new system. I can't wait to see how it changes 🤗

This sake was a gift from a junior colleague (son of a liquor store owner). It has been a long time since I've had a classic, THE old man's dry sake. There is a sweetness of rice in the back, and it is refreshing. Not bad. After the sweet and juicy sake, we had a glass of So-no-Sato. Not bad. I've only been at work for a little while after the new year, but the three-day weekend is wearing on me. Sake heals me 😄.

Japanese>English

It was a gift from a junior colleague at work. I received it last year and remember that it had quite a punchy 🤜 flavor. It has a faint smell of cemedine, and a somewhat chemical 🧪 atmosphere in the mouth, but it has a nice, clean taste that doesn't interfere with the meal 😊. It's only 3 days old and it's getting sweeter and tastier 🙌 I got it in a bottle, so I'm thinking of trying some heated sake with ✖️ on the back label 🧐.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki. The rice polishing ratio is 35%, is it the flagship sake of the brewery? It has a solid ginjo aroma, and while it is basically light and dry, it also has a mild sweetness. There is little miscellaneous taste and the mouthfeel is good. The aftertaste has a good accent of alcohol and a solid flavor. Overall, it is a good sake with a cohesive taste that makes you realize again that the alcoholic version is better for the Daiginjo class.

Outside drinking. Ordered by the impact of the name. When poured, it smells moist and sweet. The taste is as expected (?). The sweetness is strong. When tasted, it has the flavor of rice. There is a slight astringency in the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is clean, with a watery sensation and a nice clean finish. There is a distinctive sweet aroma. It is a mellow, sweet sake, and you can sense the careful craftsmanship. Later I looked it up and found the word "Toyobai" 😳. I didn't realize it was so 😚.

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.

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.

Kumamoto's local sake, Sanzanmura Slightly sweet ginjo aroma A light, sweet mouthfeel with a soft acidity. Like drinking fresh green apple juice I drank too much and my memory is fuzzy I'm not even sure of the notes I wrote at the time😅. Anyway, it's delicious! Sake brewed with sake rice grown by a pesticide-free method called "Koi Farming" in Sanzan Village! Using the carp farming method, carp are released into the rice paddies 🌾🌾 to get rid of pests. A few years ago, I drank Manbo from Kumamoto Kameman Shuzo, which was a sake made using the duck farming method🦆! There are many people in Kumamoto who practice natural farming methods 🫶.

Rice used is unknown We do not know the concept, but it seems to be a "cat series" and there are others like "Wind and Cats". Although low-alcoholic, it is not light and has a deep flavor. It was fruity, well-balanced and delicious sake. ❗️
