(Translated from original in Japanese by 🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we had Sou Yuu for the first time in a long time 😀. I bought it because I was attracted by Soueup's sake future 🥰. The aroma is mild and refreshing 😙The taste on the palate is slightly fruity with beautiful acidity and sweetness 😚 The taste is a bit bitter at the end and disappears 😊I found it to be a refreshing and cohesive sake 🥰.

It is a souvenir of Kusatsu from his father. It was a refreshing, slightly spicy sake with a hint of sweetness. I think it can be served warmed.

Japanese>English

It has a samurai-like design and a blood splattering color, and it has a sake level of +15! I couldn't help but be curious about this one, so I bought it! When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was dry. It also has a savory aroma like steamed rice. The dry, light flavor and the richness of Junmai are well balanced on the palate, giving it a slippery sensation. The acidity also makes it taste slightly citrus-like 🍊. It smells like ginjo, and in a good way, it is not like Junmai! The aftertaste is also refreshing and easy to drink from start to finish👍. I thought it would be a simple dry sake, but it was surprisingly fruity and refreshingly delicious!

Japanese>English

It has a refreshing green apple-like flavor and fades quickly. As the day goes by, the flavor also develops and becomes more savory.

Immediately after opening the bottle, it was dry and dry, perhaps due to the 17% alcohol content. Then, after leaving it in the refrigerator for about 5 days due to a business trip, the taste changed drastically! There is almost no aroma, but it has turned into a crisp, sweet and delicious sake. There are not many sakes that have changed in taste like this.

Japanese>English

I drank it last year and enjoyed it so much I bought it again. Personally, it is my favorite new sake along with "Akagisan"✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is crisp and gorgeous, like pears. The mouthfeel is light and immediately afterwards there is a solid gassy feeling. It's as shwashy as a carbonated beverage! Dry and clean on the palate, with pear and green apple flavors that are gorgeous and fresh. There is a hint of sweetness, so it is not only dry, but also well balanced. The astringent taste comes in the last half of the bottle and finishes it all off, so it is a delicious wine with a perfect ending! The sun is setting later and later, and we can feel the approach of spring. It's still early, but I'm looking forward to this year's spring sakes!

Japanese>English

A drink at a bar. Tangy and stimulating on the tip of the tongue. Fresh sweetness is followed by sourness and bitterness. Complex. Chicken liver cooked at a low temperature is delicious when combined with the rich, tender texture, bringing the balance of the sake together!

Introducing a izakaya with an austere, connoisseur-like atmosphere. I was interested in this sake because a guide recommended it on a TV program. I was curious about this sake. ‼️ I heard it is very popular sake in Niigata. I didn't know that😅 It has no aroma. ❗️ It has no habit and it's refreshing and easy to drink. It is easy to drink. ❗️ I don't feel the umami and sweetness when it's cold so I'd like to try it heated next time 😊. I would like to drink it heated next time 😊.

Smells like rice and green apple. Start drinking from the top clear. Slightly effervescent. Creamy, with sweetness and spiciness right in the middle. The taste of rice and fruity flavor is good. When the semi-solid lees are mixed in, the smell seems to become sweeter. It is mild and pungent, and has a good rice taste and flavor, and is more palatable when mixed in. I was already tongue-tied after drinking it with Onigoroshi. Hirotogawa nigori, which I wanted to drink on a good day. Congratulations on your 1,000,000 Sake-no-wa check-in.

Smells like apple sorbet. Fruity, beautiful, and smooth. The apple-like rice flavor and umami come in and quickly disappear, leaving a fresh taste. It is very drinkable, but beautiful. Delicious! More juicy the next day!

The aroma is fruity, but not overpowering. The color is beautiful and the taste is sour, but it is dry, so it is very refreshing and delicious. Today I dare to drink it without a side dish. The alcohol content is high at 20 degrees, so be careful not to drink too much😊.

Japanese>English

I bought it at my usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten 🍶. There were so many hiyaoroshi that I had to decide which one to buy ✌️ 720ml ¥2,145 It's the 2nd day of the party! Here's a quick comment! The aroma is slightly fruity💕. The color is golden and beautiful💕 The mouthfeel is smooth and smooth💕 The sweetness and umami of the rice comes to the forefront, but you can also taste the sharpness💕 It is a very beautiful sake without any unpleasant taste 💕 My wife also appreciated the taste 👍 Today's pairing is Shime saba (mackerel) and sashimi 💕 how could it not go well together 😊. It's a perfect match for my grandchildren and the party ✌️.

Oh no, the UI has changed too much and it's hard to operate. It's hard to get used to it. I forgot to give you the drink I drank when I went on a business trip. It has an apple-like aroma. Dry and full of rice flavor. Very tasty with cod chrysanthemum ponzu vinegar as a side dish.

Tasted here also at Hankyu Department Store. Junmai Ginjo-shu made with Kuzuryu. It is a refreshingly dry sake, but has a sweet and fruity taste. This time I bought a bottle of unfiltered raw sake made with Jinryoku.

Japanese>English

Tasted at Umeda Hankyu Department Store. The rice was said to be Gohyakumangoku. The quality of the sake is clean and refreshing for hiyaoroshi. It is easy to drink without a sense of maturity. As the person in charge said, it is a quiet type of sake, so I think it is suitable for a mealtime drink.

Japanese>English

It looks like all of them use locally grown rice, as did the two types of Kitanosho I posted the other day. It seems that only Ryu-ryoku and Koko use Jinryoku all the time. I'm sure there are other places like Okura that use it for single use. When I tasted it, my impression was that it was quite sweet and the second half was heavy, but it was smoky and the flavor of the rice came through with a bang. It has a strong bitterness at the end. It is not the type of sake I would drink on its own, so I will have to wait and see. I don't think it should be chilled too much. If you like Shimane or Tottori area sake, this would be good for you. I think it has a quality of sake that would not be affected by letting it sit for a while. There are glimpses of sweetness and a fruity atmosphere, but I wonder if it's basically more of a classic. Is it a multi-faceted, multi-personality sake?

A little sweeter than Yamama, a famous sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery. It is a little sweeter than Yamama, a well-known sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery, but it shines brightly when paired with food. It is a sake with a strong and powerful flavor. A salad of fresh onions and tuna is a good snack.

Last of the day. Aged for one year. The mouthfeel, umami and sweetness become mellow. The umami is mellow from the middle to the end of the bottle.

Although it's not stated on the label, the rice polishing ratio is 65%, the sake level is -13, and the rice is Hatsushimo. It is very sour. It is very sour, and has a strong personality even among sake made with white koji. This sourness is like Niwa-shu or Bodai-gan. I heard that there was a limited edition of this sake, but I'm curious.

Japanese>English

I drank it hot. I think dry sake tastes best when heated.

Deep and dark sake. It is deep and dark, but has a sharp taste.
