After work, have a drink 🍶✨. Light and definitely the right 👍 for a mealtime drink!

A single-bottle of ginjo fresh-stored sake from a brewery in Higashinada (Narumi). Very pleasant sake quality. It's the season of hydrangea👍.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki from the Sato Plantation in Sosa City. It is said to be free of chemical fertilizers and synthetic agricultural chemicals. The sweetness is moderate. The acidity is citrusy with a crisp, bitter taste. Overall, it is a refreshing summer sake. It is well-balanced and can be drunk easily. The yeast seems to be different from last year's, and judging from the other reviews, it may be a different one. (It's also possible that my taste buds are wrong...) If that's the case, I look forward to it every year! This year's was my favorite type❣️.

Toshichan I found a good sake. It has a sweetness to it, but not too sweet. But not too sweet. It has a slight carbonation. It is refreshing and easy to drink.

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

Japanese>English

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

I went to Yamagata for the first time in a long time😊. I was allowed to drink sake at my uncle's house. Mellow and sake-like sake, just the way I like it for everyday drinking 😊. There was also some Asahitaka at night, but I don't remember drinking it. I forgot to take a picture 🥲.

Japanese>English

The aroma of the rice is very deep. The aftertaste is very strong.

Japanese>English

After all, I felt that the brewery has its own taste. The aftertaste is the taste of the brewery. This is one of the bottles I bought during the brewery tour.

Honjozo 🍶. Quite refreshing, like water. Dry. Does not get in the way of eating good food. Perfect score as a daily sake 💯. Purchased at Sugatoyo Sake Shop @ Kesennuma 20230103

They said the sake goes well with bonito. The ginjo was delicious without being too much of a distraction.

Sake that I bought as my souvenir when I visited Minamisanriku Town. It has a dry dry taste with (in my opinion) a good amount of miscellaneous flavors typical of junmai sake. You don't feel it as you keep drinking. I participated in a storytelling session about the tsunami damage in Minamisanriku Town. I couldn't believe that a 22-meter tsunami had hit a four-story building along the coast. Even though I actually visited the place, I could not help but feel it when I saw the now calm sea. Hearing about that time always brings tears to my eyes. Perhaps it is because I am from Tohoku. To what extent does "reconstruction" mean?

The 2nd meeting of Kansai Off-line Meeting Year-End Party ✌️. Around this time, tables were filled with Hormone Yakisoba is delivered one after another 🤣. And Shirokuma sake 🐻❄️! It's a light cloudy sake. Aroma is fruity but slightly dry ❄️. Easy to drink even when chatting easy to drink and easy to drink 😋.

Shirokuma Shirokuma - Winter light nigori - 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol: 16%. I opened a bottle of Hatsuzakura because my wife said it was too strong. It is soft and a little bit sweet. It is very different from the other two bottles that were made with a cloudy rice that looked like porridge. I would like to drink the animal series throughout the year 😊.

Japanese>English

Sweet aroma. Personally, I like to enjoy it with a bowl of rice and a bowl of tsumami after eating a bowl of rice.

2024 Spring Evening - Tasting New Sake - 18Last. Yoshinotomo Junmai Ginjyo Nama Nama Sake Tominokou As I recall, it is a current sake with apple blossom yeast. I heard that there were 40 kinds of sake at this banquet, but only 18 made it to the end. Each brewer's brewing water was also offered as a Wakarimizu. We were fully entertained, thank you very much to the secretariat 😊.

7.5 points (wife: 7 points) Rice type : Manzai, Kakemai, Chiyonishiki Rice Polishing Ratio: 70 Alcohol content : 15 Where purchased: Charcoal BBQ KIZUNA (It is a neighborhood barbecue restaurant where you can enjoy rare parts of black hair on a shichirin, and the owner is a sake lover and always has several kinds of local sake available) Slightly melon-like topping The cherry-like aroma, soft rice flavor, and subtle sweetness mixed with the top-brewing aroma gradually spread out with a clean acidity and are quickly quenched by a slight bitterness and the dryness of the alcohol. This sake has a gentle, somewhat classical impression. It is better served with a meal than as a stand-alone sake. Goes well with various kinds of grilled meat.

Japanese>English

I bought it yesterday along with Futaba. This time it was recommended to me as a special sake again. It tastes drier, fresher and punchier than Futari. The alcohol content is 17% and it's like a Mikawa-bushi. 1415yen

◉Mikawa Samurai 📍Okazaki: Hacchi Shoten It's a draft sake, so it was shwashy, but refreshing and delicious. I heard that most sake in Okazaki is sweet! But it has a refreshing aftertaste and tastes good no matter what you drink. Okazaki? Yes. You'll see 🥰🖖🏻🧡
