Sometimes a cup of sake, a Niigata souvenir 🍶Classic taste, but with a surprisingly refreshing aftertaste 😋Thanks for the delicious taste!

Ofuku Sake Brewery is located in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, near the entrance to the former Yamakoshi Village. This kind of I have often drunk it in a glass one-cup cup, but it is now in an aluminum can. There may be a difference in the mouthfeel of the container, but the taste is a classic, slightly umami-ish standard sake, but it feels smooth. The second image is a view of terraced rice paddies (tanaike) in the former Yamakoshi Village.

Ofuku Masamune Junmai Daiginjo. On September 20, I participated in the Echigo Nagaoka Sake-no-Ten (Echigo Nagaoka Sake Festival) and stayed overnight in Nagaoka. The aroma is subdued, but when you put it in your mouth, it tastes sweet and sour like white grapes. Sweet and not too sweet...the exquisite sugar content keeps my sake cup full. Well, however, it was truly a sake-soaked time. I drank so much yesterday that I gave up tasting in the hotel's guest lounge. And today we drank again at the Yoshinogawa museum and at the Ponshu-kan in Echigo Yuzawa. That was fun.

Hakkeikubiki is a series of the eight blessings of Kakizaki: sun, water, earth, sky, wind, trees, snow, and people. This is wind. Come to think of it, it was windy in Kakizaki. This is the second bottle from the Sake Rice Study Group. The sake rice is locally grown Koshitanrei. The aroma is light, but has the gorgeous flavor of a daiginjo. The taste is very broad. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

At Soba Days One of the sake drinking sets I heard it is written "soil" and reads "dai-chi". It tastes like "Oh" when you put it in your mouth, but the aftertaste is so refreshing that you wonder what it tastes like. What was the taste like again? It makes me want to drink it again! I thought he was a friend I see once a month or something.

Japanese>English

Daiginjo. The moment it enters the mouth, it gives the impression of soft sweetness, but it is clean and goes away. It has a light mouthfeel, and although it does not have any distinctive characteristics, it does not interfere with the meal and is very easy to drink. It went well with spring wild vegetable tempura. It is a sake with a high degree of perfection. The sweetness seems to increase as the day goes by.

Thank you for your hard work ✨ and one event completed ✅ from We had a nice lunch to reward ourselves. Dinner is tomorrow's release of My Best Sake ❣️ Hode nasu. It's that time of year again! It's like drinking Beaujolais. I love this time of year and the happiness of having my favorite food 🍸🥰. This year's bubbles are finer and more beautiful than usual. Mellow. What? Have you become a smarty-pants? Have you overcome something and become an adult? This year's wine was finished with a hint of gentleness, as if you were leaning toward the other person's feelings. Aah! It is delicious. Lychee-like, rice soda, I can't help but become a Hodenasu. I drink too much sake 🍶. It's delicious this year too. Thank you very much. It's okey!

Memorandum. This is another favorite local drink. Summer, After having accomplished a lot of big challenges in June for me. I wanted to take a breather and reset. A crisp, dry, unpasteurized sake. It works well. I should be able to get eggplant. It was such a good sake for the evening. Sasanishiki from Ichihasama. Suki. I prefer the green hode nasu in winter, though.

Japanese>English

It is a local sake, but I first heard about it through "Sake-no-wa" and bought it at a sake store in the northern part of the prefecture. My daughter bought it at Fujiwaraya in Sendai Station a couple of times before she got married. Strangely enough, I could not remember any other person's sake. 　It has a fruity aroma and taste like peaches, with a nice sharp aftertaste. (Mrs. Fujinami's impression) 　It was too rich for me and I did not understand it well. It became easier to drink when I tried it on the rocks.

drink sake cold The aroma and umami are thin and not nearly as broad as they should be. The characteristic aroma of Dewanosato wafts through the air at the end. I thought it would be better to drink it lukewarm to bring out the umami and aroma. It has no characteristics, but it is somehow delicious. 75 points

This Sake has a full mouth feel and some sweetness at the beginning. The flavor of this Sake is bigger than other Seitoku Sake but it still has good balance. Very good with big flavor foods like mapo tofu.

This Sake has an initial sweetness and a full mouth feel. There is a hint of cedar as the alcohol clears my pallet. Very good with big flavor foods like yakiniku. Seitoku has many Sake that I enjoy.

This Sake is light, refreshing and easy to drink. I am revisiting this Sake because it has been a while since I last drank it. I enjoy the mild flavors of apple and melon with a clean, short aftertaste. This is a refreshing and well balanced Sake.

It is -4 and sweet, but the taste of the rice is perfect and delicious!

Faint ginjo aroma✨ A sip will leave you with just the right amount of spiciness and sharpness 🥰. This is a food sake, but it has a delicious flavor that doesn't interfere with the ingredients 😌. I rarely drink outside, but this one was delicious 🥰. The disadvantage of drinking it in a restaurant is that you can't taste the flavor immediately after opening the bottle... and you can't tell how it changes the next day or later 😭. The sake I got this time was a bottle and there were only a few bottles left, so there is a high possibility that the taste has changed since the bottle was opened 💧... 💧. And, well, it's impossible for me to drink it in a restaurant... but I have an inquisitive mind as a sake lover 🤭 lol

It was a gift from an acquaintance 🍶. This is the second bottle of a two-bottle set. 300ml 📌 ¥Unknown Thank you very much 💕 Here is the rice! I'll have it cold today. The aroma is fruity. The color is beautiful💕 The mouthfeel is clean and easy to drink 😁😁The sweetness of the rice comes through but you can also taste the umami 💕. It is a very good sake that is easy to drink and refreshing even when drunk by itself💕💕💕💕 Thanks to my acquaintance 😁.

I had this drink in my room on a business trip. I paired it with sashimi of fresh local fish I bought at a fresh fish store in the Amico specialty store area in front of Tokushima Station, which brought out the best flavor and disappeared beautifully in the aftertaste. When poured into a glass, it has a soft aroma, and when you take a sip, the flavor fills your mouth just like the name of the wine, "Houjun"! It is described as slightly dry, but it has a gentle taste. It was a good value for money at 1,670 yen for a 4-ounce bottle, tax not included. According to the brewery's website The brewing rice is "Gin-no-sato," which inherits the characteristics of "Yamadanishiki" while improving its cultivation resistance. This beautiful sake was born from the brewery's desire to create delicious sake that is not too difficult for customers to obtain, It is a sake brewery that we want to support. Thank you to L-mnd Tokushima for the recommendation.

The gentle sweetness comes from the natural glucose produced from rice. The fruity aroma and sourness reminiscent of fruit juice are key points. The burst of carbonation is refreshing, just like champagne. You may wonder, "How can rice alone taste like this?" You may wonder... This is a "new sensation" sake. Let's taste the new sensation together. Once you try it, you will be addicted to the taste. Rice used: 100% Akita-Komachi Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 7 to 8 degrees Content: 280ml

I saw a lot of Shuyoshi's La Chante at a souvenir shop in Akita. It was stored at room temperature in the sun, so I bought the one from the liquor store's refrigerator. I don't know whether it was made for sake lovers or wine lovers, but it was interesting. The Akita Sour was expensive, but it was okay. The miso macaroon from Kakunodate was delicious!
