Refreshing, clean, fruity 🌸🍶✨ Sour mouth like Sentori ~⤴️😚 Sweet, sour, delicious 🐴 and oicy ❕. I found it again this year 😆. I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

I always wanted to drink Tanaka Sentori. I was surprised at the quality of Sentori and the quality of and the quality of Tanaka Rokugo. Since then, 12 years have passed. I think about many things when I drink it. I can say this much. It's very tasty. While cheering for the baseball game While thinking about various things I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

Fukuoka! So this is the Kyushu Brewery Shiraito Shuzo. It is different from the Tanaka Rokugo we just drank! Yeast is amazing. My subordinate, who came late, brought in some food. This is a must have for a night out in Fukuoka. Without it, I might not have been able to go home the next day.

Last week I visited Dewano-Fuji at Hankyu Department Store, but I went to Umemoto Sake-ten in Nishinakajima because I thought I could find more variety at a special distributor. (Note that they have moved from the location shown on the map of Sake-no-wa, and they have a corner bar inside after 4:00 p.m.) I was a bit lost, so I asked the waitress and she let me try a sample. Melon-like fruity sweet taste. Slightly refreshing? It was delicious, but Junmai Arabashiri seemed rarer, so I bought that one 😊.

Japanese>English

The beautiful kaleidoscope-like label is impressive. The taste is sweet with a hint of bitterness at the end. It is refreshing and crisp, but the screw was unusually hard to open, so I think it should be improved. The Junmai Unfiltered Nama-jyu I drank at the end of the year was cheaper and much tastier. I don't know if it's because they use Miyamanishiki, but it tastes a little like the Jokigen I had the other day. A bit 🍇ish.

Japanese>English

It is a rare brand, but it was on sale at Aeon, so I bought it immediately. From 40℃. Mild aroma. When you drink it, the umami of rice expands for a moment, and it finishes quickly with a nigori, or "ricey" taste. 50℃ is almost the same. At 50℃, it is almost the same, but when served cold, the sweetness is more pronounced. The rice flavor also expands, and the taste ends up being bitter or pungent. It is a relatively dry nigori, which is a favorable category. It seems to be good for eating.

I bought it at a product show the other day. I had never heard of this brand, but I tasted it and liked it. It was 19 degrees, so I drank it lightly on the rocks. I paired it with stewed daikon radish and shellfish sashimi as the cold weather deepened. It was moderately dry and went well with sashimi.

The first sip was swoopy and I couldn't keep up with the flavors, but from the next I could feel the strong, dark flavor. I also enjoyed how it settled down over time.

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`;) It is five years old, and when heated up, it has a slightly sweet graininess. Sourness is also light. When it cools down, the juiciness becomes more apparent. It is considered to be an old sake that is easy to drink.

8.5 points (Wife 8.5 points) Sake Brewer : Ohga Shuzo, Chikushino City, Fukuoka Prefecture (Fukuoka Prefecture's oldest brewery) Rice : Yamadanishiki produced in Fukuoka Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 60 Alcohol percentage : 16 Sake Degree : Undisclosed Acidity : Not disclosed A gift from a friend in Fukuoka who came to Fukuoka Airport to see me off (purchased at Todoroki Sake Shop). Slightly melon-like finish The same subdued, fruity aroma as the first sip, with a hint of vanilla and a hint of azuki beans, soft sweetness and umami of rice spreading with a refreshing acidity, and finishing gently with a hint of bitterness and a slight spiciness from the alcohol. Elegant and well-balanced, it is easy to pair with meals, and is also delicious on its own. My friend's nickname is Tama-chan and his wife's maiden name is Izumi, so he chose this sake as a pun. It went well with Italian-style grilled salmon with foil, stewed sweet potato, chilled tofu, and squid cod roe.

Japanese>English

The oldest sake brewery in Fukuoka, Ohga Shuzo, has created a GABAGABAHEY raw sake. At the first sip, the fresh and rich rice flavor typical of nama-shu spreads. It is certainly a sake that you might drink with the governor (^-^), and it is delicious. It seems to be a limited sake, so if you are interested, please come early~.

Japanese>English

The fourth cup is a "Tamadezumi" unpasteurized sake! (First picture, left side) The sweetness is even richer than the previous "Ooga Unfiltered Nama"! However, as you savor it, the acidity and pungency slowly come from the back, along with a hint of shiitake mushroom-like aroma. The coffee milk-like aftertaste is impressive ✨.

#Otaru#. I was a lecturer at a conference for companies. In the evening in Otaru, we had a get-together with the participating companies. The sake served there was Otaru's local sake. I prefer sweet sake, but it was a bit... I felt the spiciness was strong for a +5 sake, maybe because it was junmai? Today, I had to travel from Nagasaki to Otaru, I was a little tired😅.

Saku City. This is from last year, as it is released in September every year. It tastes like a matured rice wine. Even if it is sweet, it is good. The label tells you what kind of sake it is, which is nice for check-ins.

Japanese>English

Yummmm. I could buy Switch2! Aeon used book market. I was so surprised. Yum! ☆☆☆☆

Japanese>English

This is the sixth brewery in the Saku Sake Brewery series. Located in a historic town along the old Nakasendo road, this is a place I would like to visit again. The taste is very strong as it is called "mellow" sake. It is 18% alcohol by volume. It has a bitter taste on the tip of the tongue, followed by a sweet sake-like flavor. I heard that there is a way to enjoy it by aging it after buying it. Next time I'll let it mature a bit and try it with mizutaki in winter 😋.

😁. We were here for snow fencing at a ski lodge that we take care of in the winter. We will work a little in the morning, relax at Nagano station and go home. I will ask for a sake tasting set ☺️. The rightmost one is today's sake, Kisoji hiyaoroshi. The aroma is very strong and the taste is stable. You can tell how delicious the rice is. Delicious. Now, I'm going home to buy Gokotsuru. My back hurts from carrying so much stuff with bad posture💦.

The rice has just the right amount of flavor and sweetness, and the taste is refreshing and delicious.

My parents-in-law gave me this sake as a souvenir from Tanba Sasayama. It's a completely unknown brand, so I was very nervous when I opened the bottle. Maybe it's because we've been drinking a lot of autumn sake lately, but it's surprisingly refreshing 😳 You can drink it easily without getting stuck. It has a faint sourness and a spiciness that comes afterwards, and then it goes away quickly. It's a sake made with clean water that goes well with all kinds of food. We enjoyed it with pork kimchi and horse mackerel sashimi. I want to drink it carefully, but it will probably be gone in two days☺️.

I'm drinking at home ♬ A souvenir from Arima Onsen from a friend! Thanks 👏. It has been a while since I have tasted a light flavor. I've been on a sweet streak, so this is good too!

The one we got. This is a decansho-bushi, it seems. The flavor comes in slowly and flows gently through to the aftertaste.

KATSURAGAWA, which had been laid up for about a year and a half. It's too early to tell, but I'm looking forward to a summer sake on the rocks, and this time I'll have a glass of the standard warmed sake 🍶. When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was freshly cooked and fluffy, like rice cakes or rice. It is a four-step glutinous rice brewing process. The mouthfeel is smooth like Gunma sake, but gradually a gentle and deep sweetness like sugar or spuds spreads gradually. When heated, it has a full-bodied, rice-like flavor. The sweetness is not too strong, but rather relaxing. Perfect for enjoying in the colder months. The sweetness itself is more subdued than the normal type, but on the other hand, you can fully enjoy the cleanliness that is typical of Gunma sake, which is a good balance!

Japanese>English

As the summer is drawing to a close (the heat is still on), I opened a bottle of "Katsuragawa" sake on the rocks, which I was looking forward to drinking again this year! And the back of the bottle is falling apart due to condensation again😇. When we opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was sweet and fluffy, typical of "Katsuragawa". It is a bit sour and comes in through the nose as if it is cold on the rocks. The mouthfeel has a pettiness by default, but on the rocks it is smooth and silky. It has a fluffy aroma like sweet rice crackers and a syrupy sweetness of shaved ice. As the ice melts, it becomes lighter and more enjoyable ✨. The lingering finish has a slightly tangy, spicy acidity and a tropical fruitiness, and the smart finish keeps the saké going! While listening to the chirping of autumn insects 🍶. I think it's time to open a bottle of "Akagisan" summer sake!

Japanese>English

Sweet. When the temperature rises, the spiciness of the honjozo taste hits you!
