The fifth "Masamune Shibari" cup Juichi-Masamune Sakura Yeast Original Sake This is my first time to drink Masamune. The aroma is rich and sweet with brown sugar. On the palate... I knew it. ❗️ It's a little bit sweet, but not too sweet 👍.

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown There seem to be several different cup designs. This sake is sweet and spicy, and has a "sake smell" in a good way. There is nothing sharp about it, and it is perfect for an evening drink. ❗️ I don't dislike it. 86th sake in a cup

Japanese>English

It's a hydrangea cup from Juichi Masamune😃I like the Showa feel 🎵.

Additional time after the SENKYO✕UA limited edition sake party at shima&sake&coffee (3) Let's try a different version of this sake 🍶. Sotogahama Junmai Ginjo Haikara The same mellow melon-like aroma, melon-like sweetness and umami, mellow lingering taste and slight bitterness. Similar flavor profile, but if you compare Monochrome and Haikara, Haikara has slightly stronger acidity and bitterness 🤔. And the fourth one I was told to drink because it's interesting. I didn't know about this one, but it is a whiskey produced by Nishi Shuzo, which brews Tenpyo and Tominohozan shochu. I had it on the rocks, but it's quite light in body, so I think it would be drunk with a highball! ［Nishi Shuzo is doing a lot of different things. ✨️ This concludes my post on the shima & sake & coffee event 🔚. The number of "Sentori" posts went up at once 🤣.

Additional time after the SENKYO✕UA limited edition sake party at shima&sake&coffee (2) After the shocking "Sentori Snowman 2025" was opened, the customer next to me and I ordered and compared the sake we were really interested in, which had been sitting in the cellar before the event 🥰. Sotogahama Junmai Ginjo Monochrome. The aroma was like a mellow melon, the taste was sweet and umami, and the finish was mellow and lingering. I looked at the back of the bottle and saw that this is from the Tasake brewery 😲 I didn't know that. ✨️

For today's sake, I chose a Junmai Daiginjo from Kuchiman 😀. We compared the tasting sakes, one brought to room temperature for tasting and one kept chilled, and this one for tasting brought to room temperature might taste better than the chilled one 🤣. The chilled one is just too beautiful to swallow without anything stuck to it😅. The room temperature one spread the sweet and delicious flavor and filled my mouth with deliciousness😇

I think it might be my favorite.

(^_^)🍶🍶🍶+ GW Tohoku Tour (2) 🍶Drinking set 🍶 at Izakaya 🏮 in the basement of the station 📐 with Definition Mountain Fried Tofu 📐. I think it was a clear and dry sake that goes well with food 🤔.

Japanese>English

A bottle given to me by my predecessor, who recently reached retirement age. He said it was a thank-you for the 3 kg of new rice he delivered every year during his tenure, which he called a "taste test. Rice has become sake! The nose has a fruity ginjo aroma, but the fragrance is subdued. The mouthfeel has a gentle, round sweetness and a satisfying umami. The fruity feeling that passes through the nose and the mild acid bitterness that comes at the end disappear slowly and gently. I had an image that Houyo was not my favorite, but this is good! I can say that when it comes to high-class wines, this one is genuinely tasty. Thank you very much for the sake!

Japanese>English

It is said to be the oldest brewery in Miyagi Prefecture. Fresh and mellow. The acidity is strong. I wonder if it is better to let it sit for a while after opening it. As expected, sweetness appeared on the 3rd day. I wonder if Houyou tastes better on the third day 🤔.

Nagurayama Shuzo's Aizu Shikon is brewed in Aizu Wakamatsu City. Although there is a tangy alcoholic stimulation when the sake is first served cold, it has a good balance of sweet, spicy, and bitter tastes, and as the temperature rises, the sweet and umami tastes come out later on. This is a refreshing, yet rich and powerful sake! This is a new brand that was just born 2 years ago, so we will continue to follow it 😋.

Japanese>English

A challenge themed drink, apparently😊. I don't know about the details but it's neat😄. I don't know the details, but it's refreshing 😋

Japanese>English

My first Aizu Shikon: ❗️ It's another brand of Nagurayama. Nagurayama is fruity and modern. It tastes fruity and modern. but this sake has quite a robust taste. It tastes quite robust. ❗️ It is sweet and has a unique aroma 🤔. I guess it's not to everyone's liking. I don't dislike it 😊. It has a good umami and not too much aftertaste. It's a good choice for a meal. The interesting thing about sake is that it tastes very different depending on the brand even if it's from the same brewery 😊.

Dry Traditional Cooled Sake Acidity Nutty Umami Warm Sake Room Temperature

It was cold and I wanted to drink heated sake, so I bought this sake. It reminded me of the unique impression I had when I drank it once upon a time. I drank it warmed up, but the acidity stood out without much umami. Sasanishiki is a light rice that does not have much sweetness, so I think it is a dry sake without much sweetness. I would have liked a little more umami.

Japanese>English

This sake goes well with this season, which is getting a little colder. The oak aroma is not too strong, and the sense of maturity makes this sake something special. Of course it goes well with heated sake, so this sake sinks into your cold body. It is a stable taste.

Japanese>English

Just a reminder 🙏. This is the second cup at the third "Douka" 🍶. This is also very dry (+7). It's a bit peculiar, but it's like a good old-fashioned sake for adults 🤗.

The initial aroma is fruity 🍎. The palate has a full-bodied sweetness from the rice and a good acidity. Aomori-style sake with a nice sharpness.

Japanese>English

I found my favorite Satochi at an Izakaya and couldn't resist ordering it😍. The smell of pears. It smells so good. It has a caramel-like sweetness and then a light sourness. After that, the bitterness comes through quickly. It's a beautiful sake. It's really delicious. It's been a long time since I've had it😊. The taste itself is refreshing, but even with a strong oily taste like mackerel, there is a flavor that somehow does not lose at all ️.

Yamada Nishiki. A pleasantly mild spiciness with a sharp umami flavor...!
