I bought it at Kyorindo 📌300ml ¥574 I started work today. My family had sushi for lunch. They bought sashimi for me💕I have to drink this😋. I'm so glad I did! The aroma is more subdued than I expected. The color is beautiful and the mouthfeel is smooth, but the throat feeling is medium spicy😋. This is a very good product from an excellent company. I'd like to thank my wife for her help with the tuna and yellowtail sashimi. I'm so happy to be back!

I stopped by the brewery for the first time in a while. I used to have a special fire-brewed junmai and a sake called "Mariko no shu" which is named after the female toji (master brewer?). Both were quite dry, classical sake. Both were quite dry classical sake, and I had the impression, for better or worse, that this is what local sake is supposed to be like. This was probably my first nigori sake, but it looked delicious, so I bought some! I wondered if the beautiful woman at the sales counter was Mariko herself? It has a classical aroma with a banana feel. It is more of a hint than a standing aroma. It has a classical taste and is dry, but you can drink it by itself if you want! It is very easy to drink because it has a lot of turbidity, which gives it a strong umami flavor and makes it easy to taste the sweetness. I drank it with kimchi nabe (kimchi stew), and I think it goes well with strong flavors and nabe dishes! It also seems to go well with meat, and I am sure it would go well with ginger-grilled pork or chicken steak. I imagine it is like Kikuhime nigori or Tamagawa nigori! To be honest, I think it's one of the best in the Koshu Plum Grove, so I'd be happy to buy a bottle and drink it slowly. It can probably be stored at room temperature until early spring.

Japanese>English

I had decided on Mariko's Sake for my first visit to Saitama. The Sato Sake Brewery is run by Mariko Sato, the toji of the brewery. There is almost no alcohol taste, and the spiciness comes later with more umami. It is sweet and umami, but the spiciness lingers a little.

I had a good thing, so I left this in the refrigerated room, which has become a dedicated temperature for cooling sake, just in case something good happened. The carbonated bubbles were large (I personally prefer a smaller one), Anyway, it was easy to drink and tasted so good that I drank it right up. I could taste it, but it was so easy to drink. And drank it in no time, I went to bed with a patter, though, The next day, I felt so refreshed. It was so refreshing that I wondered if I had drunk it the next day. I could have drunk as much as I wanted. Thank you very much.

First Fukuoka sake on my new account. It is Ikegame from Kurume 🐢. The label is a cute goldfish: ❤️ This is my first time drinking Ikegame, and while it is a junmai sake, it also has a bit of ginjo aroma, which gives it a nice cosiness 😙. It has a refreshing and crisp summery taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and umami that won't interfere with your meal 😋. It went well with meat, fish, and vegetables👍. Thanks to the sake brewery and the store that recommended it to us 🙏!

Japanese>English

Pond turtles are good. This is the first time to see this one, and it's also hot, so I thought raw would be good too, so I bought it. It has a very light and refreshing taste, but it has a very strong spiciness and a very strong umami taste. It has a lot of elements that make you want to drink it. It can also be heated. Some of the nama sake can be too strong, but this sake is light, so it goes well with it. I liked how the astringency came out well. Mr. Mitamura went to Arashiyama He was tasting a high Tanzan. He said it is only available at certain times of the year, but it's a great service!

This is a gift from a sake professional, a local sake from Nanada's place. It is quite precious as it is the first pressing... 🙏. The aroma is juicy fruity and red apple-like. The mouthfeel is supposed to be fresh, but it also has a mellow, umami-like sweetness that spreads out and is very drinkable 👌👌. As a lover of the four seasons, I quite like this type. ☺️ I've heard it tastes great warmed up, so I'm going to enjoy it 😋.

Japanese>English

The eighth one is a storehouse of rocks. This is the first time for Iwanokura itself. I guess I don't even remember seeing it in a liquor store. From the name and the image on the label, I somehow imagined it to be light and dry, but when I tried it, it was completely different. It has a sweet flavor from the fruity Kamitatekko, and although it is more reserved in terms of flavor intensity than the previous brew, I didn't feel anything lacking. On the contrary, it has a nice umami taste that comes slowly but surely afterwards! The cut is also very smooth, so it is like a gentle sweet and tasty taste. It's delicious! Finally, the next is the last! Thank you for the food!

Modest ginjo aroma, pear-like flavor? A little spiciness afterward is also nice. As the temperature rises, the graininess comes out. It is better when it is cold,

From a junior 🎁. It's not enough to give it to a drinker. I heard that he consulted with the owner of the store about it. But it's hard to find 20 degrees 🤣. It was heated up as it should be 🍶 and was quite rich. The rice flavor is concentrated. It's a sake you want to drink well.

Japanese>English

We will eat while learning about the history of the tub sales. It has a good aroma. It has sweetness, umami, and overall strength, and goes down the throat well. It is a tasty sake with a punch.

Japanese>English

It is said to be an irregular sake. The toji-san overfilled it with 4-stage rice or something😅. The "Raku" on the label represents the over-filled rice, and the blue color represents the pale face of the toji-san. Gutsy, but quite sweet and sour. It is much sweeter than other Raku no sei I've had, but I also feel its character. The rice is from the terraced rice fields of Hida. I can't seem to name the rice, but I wonder if it is Hidahomare or some other rice that is only available in Gifu. I heard that if you mention the name of the rice, you will get complaints like Kamerei did in Hiroshima, but if you don't mention the name, it's OK.

Rice used is Yoshino Gin-no-sato 1/3rd bottle of Yoshino Sake Rice Project Kitamura Sake Brewery, probably for the first time. It has a good amount of sweetness, spiciness, and acidity. The alcohol content is a little high. The aftertaste is also crisp, and it is good that it does not get dull. As expected of Nara's sake, the level of the ministry is high.

Japanese>English

The famous sake from Yoshino, Nara, Shojo no Oni👹san series❣️. The founder of Shugendo, Yakushokaku, was served by a couple of demons: the husband demon was Zendo Oni (the former demon) and the wife was Myodo Oni (the latter demon). This is the first time I bought a sake named after that Zendo Oni 😆. I was originally under the impression that Shoto was a fruity, easy-drinking sake, but this Zendo Oni is so rich and full-bodied that it is hard to believe it is a Jungin of Gohyakumangoku 😳. It has a nice melon feeling and a full-bodied flavor reminiscent of Tamagawa❣️. By the third day, the ripe fruit-like sweetness is added, and the unique flavor is irresistible 😇 I'm enjoying it chippy, chippy, chippy😇 All that crosses our path are demons 👹. But if it's demons like this, I want to see them again. I wonder if his wife will be the next demon (not my wife 😅)

Japanese>English

Sake from a sake brewery in the northern part of the prefecture, located in the famous production area of Hachitan-Nishiki, Hiroshima's representative sake rice. The brewery has been working on it since the rice was first produced. The name of the sake is "Miwa Sakura" instead of "Miwa Zakura," which I had been misreading for a long time. It is said to be dry, but the quality of the sake is relatively soft. It has a nice sharp aftertaste and is easy to drink. It is quite my favorite 😋. I had it cold, but I think it can also be served warm.

Brewery Limited ✨️ brought in by a regular customer GOTCHISO-SAMATSU I just had Yaezakura the other day, so it was easy to compare: ☺️ It's a bit peculiar after all! But I'm lucky🍀🍀 to be able to drink this rare limited edition sake.

Japanese>English

Next was the Ryusen Yaezakura Junmai Sake Takumi no Omachi. Compared to the Yamada-Nishiki we drank earlier, the taste is a little more robust. The aroma is almost imperceptible, but the sweetness and umami of the flavor is stronger than that of Yamadanishiki. I was full of anticipation, wondering what this sake, which won first place in the Governor's Award, would taste like! I went to the brewery and asked them about it, and they told me that they will start selling it next week. I am looking forward to it! It was delicious! (^o^) P.S. This year, my hibiscus has many flower buds. Last year, they hardly bloomed at all... (^_^; )
