Buy at Aeon Cheap and tasty And my favorite nigori sake! It's a high 21%. It's a four-pack so it will go fast💦.

Japanese>English

Slurp kaa - tongue tingling. Alcohol content 21 degrees! I bought it on the way home from overtime work. Kikusui Shuzo has been a customer of mine for the Kikusui Funaguchi Ichiban Shibori, which is available at convenience stores and supermarkets before I started using Sake No Wa. I remember that it was a pioneer of canned raw sake. Thanks to this technology, we now have more opportunities to offer unpasteurized sake to the world, and I think this is an immeasurable achievement in the sake world. I could go on and on, but according to the label, this sake is classified as a "liqueur". At any rate, I'll note in my memorandum that it was a sweet and dangerous drink.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a local supermarket. It seems to be read as "Korohachi". Aroma of alcohol. It is quite creamy. Nigorizake is usually sweet, but this one is rather aromatic and dry. The alcohol content is 21 degrees, so it is very drinkable.

My father bought it for me as a souvenir from his trip to Aomori. The nose has a faintly acidic aroma. In the mouth, there was a delicate acidity from the sake yeast and a calm, gentle sweetness and richness. It was a crisp sake, typical of Sakuta's special pure sake. It was delicious, but it was not so good when it was warmed up 🤔.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ This restaurant is owned by a master from Hirosaki, so it is an Aomori attack. At first I thought it was a little peculiar, but it is rather tasty.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking this brand, but it is handled by a well-known sake store in Aomori, and I have hesitated to mail order it several times. So I was confident that I would not make a mistake. I was torn between this one and the Yukinaka Hakkoda from the same brewery, but I went with this one. At room temperature. The aroma is slightly banana-like. When you drink it, the umami of rice rises thinly, and if you drink it by itself, it will slowly and gently lift you up with its umami and spiciness. It becomes more crisp when paired with cheese. At 40℃, it has a little more rice flavor. The crisp and sharp taste is better than at room temperature. I personally prefer this brand to be served hotter, so I set the temperature at 50°C. The aroma is not too strong and the taste is mild. The aroma is not too strong and remains mild, but the umami comes out slowly, and the sharpness is enhanced by the slight alcohol taste. I personally prefer this temperature. Sake from the southern region is often sharp without being sweet, and I have the impression that this is also the case here. In addition to cheese, it goes well with kinpira, tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce) of locusts, and ikamentsuchi, a specialty of Aomori. The sake has no cloying taste, and I can sense a high level of technical skill. Next time, I would like to buy some Umakuchi or Sakuta, which has a different character, but with the recent inflation and saturation of brands, I wonder if it will be a problem if they will be able to get them in stock.

50th Anniversary Sake, first drink. Smells like green tea ice cream. Lactic acidity as the temperature rises. It is smooth, with the sweetness of rice, spiciness, and a firm taste in the middle, and the strength and bitterness of the alcohol give it a sharp taste. It is delicious and appetizing. Try it on the rocks as recommended. The sweetness stands out, and the bitterness and lactic acidity give it a refreshing kick. There is a gentle flavor of rice in the middle.

Japanese>English

After finishing the half marathon today...I drank it again and it was delicious...I knew it was Niigata sake, because it is undiluted, so it has a smooth, light and dry taste...it was delicious...I drank a lot of it at the party, but Niigata sake has a lot of potential...I felt it again...it is a very good sake...it is a very good sake...

I bought it at a sake shop in Kintetsu Department Store. I can't read "mother-of-pearl" 🤣I heard it is read as "Uzume", but if you type "den" for mother-of-pearl in your phone, it will come up 😁. If I lived a normal life, I would never use this kanji 😅. I got the impression it's a pineapple with a bit of bitterness 🍍. It was sweeter when I tasted it, so maybe it's sweeter after some time, but it's 500ml and I can't wait that long 🤣. Maybe the aroma is a bit peculiar.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store's Sake Tour. The label is a sheep kept at the brewery. It has a slight sweetness, and is full, rich, and powerful. It has a strong richness. It might be good if it is laid down. There are graininess and nutty nuances. I guess it's normal for a good price. I didn't buy Yamahai because I didn't want the similar taste to continue, but Yamahai might have been better... It's the third day, but I think it's getting sweeter and tastier than the first day.

Japanese>English

Rice used is something from Mie Prefecture Aged for 4 years, pale amber in color. Smoky and graininess with the color as it is. The sweetness is elegant, and the spiciness in the aftertaste has an impact on the throat and nose. It is a little peculiar, but I personally like it! I don't know what the original flavor was, but it has a nice aged feel. ❣️

- ̗̀( ˘˙ࠔ˙˘) ̖́-🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we had our first big seven along with the bluefin squid we caught😋. The aroma is subdued, probably because it was served chilled🤔In the mouth, it is round and full of flavor, but light 😊The mild sweetness and acidity are well balanced and you can drink more and more 😚👍It goes well with the squid 🦑 we caught 😍It has a strong flavor but not too prominent 😍It is a food wine 😍. It's a delicious sake 🥳.

Dai-Shichi Namaeshige Junmai Hon Nama is freshly pressed and only available for limited shipment at this time of the year. It has a refreshing acidity and a soft sweetness, followed by a firm umami and bitterness. As the temperature rises, a moderate astringency and spiciness appear, making it easy to drink without getting tired of it. The acidity, sweetness, bitterness, astringency, and spiciness are all so delicious that we can't stop drinking 😆. It is a delicious sake that is fresh and smooth to drink, but also has a powerful flavor 🥰.

A cup of sake bought at the souvenir corner of Himeji station. I took a sip, thinking it was probably dry... Yes, it is dry. It is refreshing, but has a sourness. Sake from Hyogo Prefecture is basically dry.

@sakebar Fukuzo This is the last sake I drank at Fukuzo 🍶. For those of you who think "how much have you had to drink? I think so too😅. The first aroma is sweet with classic acidity. It has a full-bodied sweet flavor with a hint of acidity on the palate. It's also a great costumed honjozo that doesn't make you feel like it's been soaked in alcohol 😋. It was delicious 🍶✨. Thank you for everything, landlady 🙇🙇🙇.

Tonight is fruit drinking. p Grapes are Kyoho and Honey Venus. The plums are Kiyo. The apples are Granny Smith. I think this sake is however classy, well-balanced and delicious.

🙂 Next was Aozora. I thought it would be sweet because it was nigori, but it was dry. You would think it would be sweet because of the pink label. It was refreshing and easy to drink.

500ml ¥1,755 It's been a year and a half since I've had this 💦. It's definitely delicious though😅😅. Now let's open the bottle 🎵 The perfect balance of refreshing sweet and bitter 😆. Super yummy 😋!

Japanese>English

Not much aroma. Slightly yellowish. The sake is junmai sake, so you would expect it to be robust, but it has a light mouthfeel. The light sweetness and acidity are pleasant. It is only 500 ml, so it ran out quickly. I wonder if I should throw it away or reuse it after drinking out of the Italian bottle every time. I'm a poor person, aren't I?

This is delicious 😋. The aroma of cedar that spreads in your mouth is amazing at first. It is as soothing as a dip in a hot spring. Sake is the royal road type with a sharp dry taste followed by umami. This is the type of sake I would like to drink regularly.

Japanese>English

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.
