2017BY. Slightly pungent, with a delicious twinge of umami. It has a slightly bitter taste, but it comes together nicely.

Japanese>English

Heated with water! It was excellent directly in the hiya. The flavor is mellowed and the aroma is broadened by adding water! Yum!

Japanese>English

days (period) of one's reign (e.g. as opposed to one's past) Hot sake as recommended! It is a strong yellowish sake with a strong sweet taste. I saw that it is good to drink it hot, but I wanted to try it hot too! I don't know much about this brewery, but it seems expensive.

Koikawa Shuzo Junmai Ginjo Kamejikohi 720ml Rice ： 100% Kame-no-o produced in Yamagata Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 55 Alcohol : 15.3 My wife entered this sake in a CS historical drama program and won it. It is said that this sake brewery is related to the writer Shuhei Fujisawa. This is also some kind of fate. Now, what does it taste like? It is quite classical. My wife said it was just fine. It is best to warm it up a little.

Japanese>English

Rice sweetness. Strong acidity. Bitter taste of alcohol remains at the end. The lack of ginjo aroma is good. Not my favorite though. It can be served with meals, but I don't think I will repeat it.

My colleague brought it to me 🎵 It was my first time to drink this sake 🍶 It has a delicious white wine-like flavor and a rounded sake taste ❗The lingering taste is not sweet but has a bitter flavor like chocolate 😉 It was an interesting and delicious sake 😉. It may be a bit on the refreshing side, but it doesn't make you think it's super dry, it's a good sake for those who are looking for a dry sake 😃.

The fourth cup. Choryu Shuzo has its headquarters and brewery in Hiroyo, Nara Prefecture, but they also have a brewery in Yatsuo, which was exhibited at this booth. It has a pleasant aroma of cedar barrels and a clean taste. It was the perfect sake for a quiet drink.

Rice used is Miyamanishiki I didn't find it too harsh, but my partner, who prefers a gorgeous sweet taste, found it too much for his palate. It is true that the alcohol taste comes first, and the mouthfeel is not smooth. As the day goes by, the corners are removed and it becomes more moderate, so it might be better to go out with it slowly, but I don't dislike it in this way.

Junmai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Uesugi Yonezawa Naoe Yamashiro Kanetsugu [Love Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15%. This is the 7th kind of sake we purchased on our trip to Yamagata 🤗. The label is named after Naoe Kanetsugu's helmet seal [Ai]... I couldn't help but buy it 😅. I thought it was a crisp, dry, refreshing sake that I would never get tired of drinking on the palate. When pouring it into the sake cup, I put a little more than usual so that the saucer would be filled with [love]... I was drinking it by myself laughing with the memories of my trip 🤗.

Junmai-shu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15%. This is the fourth type of sake we purchased on our trip to Yamagata 🤗. In Yonezawa, we did not have enough time to visit Kosaka Sake Brewery due to a visit to Toko's sake brewery. The next day, after eating Yamagata Ramen, we stopped by Beni no Kura in Yamagata City and purchased this 🤗. It's a refreshingly dry sake with a great taste of rice.
