Freshly squeezed... fresh fruity rice aroma... mouthfeel, swirling... sweet and bitter... moderate bitterness, acidity... and then a kick! It can be drunk as it is or as a drink with food. It's delicious.

Senzuke Orikarami One of my favorite sake 😊. The balance of fresh, elegant sweetness and sharpness is perfect 😊. Today I went to Takatori Shrine. There are a lot of local cats living on the approach to the shrine. Many of them are very cautious, but sometimes some of them are very friendly 🥰Cute 😍.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a local liquor store in the neighborhood as an example. It is as beautiful as a Daiginjo, probably because it is made from Shin Ginmai (flat polished rice). It is slightly effervescent, refreshing and dry. It may be too refreshing for Senzuke, but it has a rich taste. Not too sweet for Senzuke.

I wish I could have a drink with you. A drink at Tateyama after a long absence today. It's stable and delicious.

Japanese>English

A little bit of a schwash and bitterness is good~! The supernatant has a light umami, like it softens when mixed with the lees (my opinion) 🤭 Delicious! I bought a bottle of Tateyama at the Square Sake Shop on the way back from Shima Onsen, and it was a good buy 🤤. I'm glad I didn't go home empty handed because I didn't have any Sakiyami.

I've been curious about "WAKAZE" for a while...it's brewed with ingredients from France🇷...just like a white wine! It has a fruity aroma like grapes, a sweet taste like Niagara wine, and a sour aftertaste like Chardonnay...lactic acid? Slightly sour taste... like something different from Sake... this is it! I think so...I'm drinking it with a Big Burger🍔 as a snack...

Japanese>English

I wish I could have a better time with you! At Sakaishi Daigo (Part 10) I'd like to thank you all for your kindness and support.

Japanese>English

At home. This is the first time I have had this wine. The aroma and characteristic acidity give it a white wine feel. The alcohol level is supposed to be low at 13 degrees, but for some reason it makes me drunk. I would like to drink it little by little.

A drinking friend of mine wanted to drink a bottle of Takezuru by Toshi Ishikawa, who has moved to Tsuki no I. So I agreed to accompany him. We had it heated. The first aroma is like a matured Shaoxing sake. The first sip had a matured Shaoxing sake-like aroma, and the second had a mildly sweet taste with a Shaoxing sake-like acidity and umami. The sweetness is still there, but it's the kind of fully fermented sake that you can drink while eating snacks. It was delicious 🍶✨.

Japanese>English

I've been saving it for over 2 years because it's my favorite brand, but I've decided to open it up. I'm going to enjoy changing the flavor slowly from here ✨. When you open the bottle and pour it in, the aroma is like sweet baked sweets like sponge cake or kawara senbei. The mouthfeel is round and robust. It is round and robust on the palate, with a punch of spiciness and a tangy sourness. It also has a rich, thick flavor and a sweetness that spreads gradually. The balance of sweet, sour, spicy, and bitter is exquisite, not just strong and heavy, and the taste has a wide range of deep flavors, including a confectionery, grain, and rice feel! This is the second brand that has really caught my attention after "Akagisan," and I am very happy with it. It is a bit pricey, but I would like to try the sake made from the original sake yeast if I see it 😌.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ I would love to drink the whisky Takezuru, but the sake Takezuru. This is probably my first time. Unlike the aroma, the taste is strong and robust. But it is surprisingly easy to drink. It smells a little like alcohol, but it is delicious.

A special order from Meishukan Takimoto. When I opened it, I heard a powerful popping sound. It is a lightly fizzy, fruity and sweet sake. The sourness comes in at the end. Kawatsuru is always delicious no matter what you drink.

I saw it at Takasaki station and bought it. I was expecting to be disappointed, but I was pleasantly surprised. I should have bought it at a dozen places. I should have bought it at the dozen.

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've had a normal Akagisan! I love the refreshing taste of summer, but the crisp and dry taste during the cold winter months is also very refreshing and special ✨. The clear and beautiful mouthfeel is also reminiscent of the snowy winter landscape! It's also a great choice for warming up during this time of the year. But in my opinion, Akagisan is best drunk cold 😋.

Japanese>English

It is no longer a must-have. I've been saving it for a while since I bought it, but I opened it just as it was getting a little warmer! (I'll spare you my impressions.) It has a light, refreshing, umami dry taste and a clean, crisp throat, making it a great choice for the coming season 😌. In my opinion, it is a 🍺 substitute...!

TENJOJI Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku from Okuidumo, Tsuyahime from Shimane Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 17%. This sake was bundled with the February hanpukai. Drinking Tenshuu makes me want to go to Izumo and eat soba noodles😃. The aroma of this one is very distinctive. It has a pleasant smoky aroma. I guess you could call it fragrance 😁.

Japanese>English

Tenshitsu Haru no Tsuki Slightly sparkling Junmai Nigori Nama Shu 720ml Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 18%. I opened a bottle of Tenshitsu that was included in the February hanpukai. It has a very complex flavor. It is fresh but also has a bitter taste, gasiness, and a slight smokiness. It tastes like an adult. Interesting.

Japanese>English

I chose a dry one, thinking it would be lighter. I like Izumo Fuji from Shimane and drink it often, but this one is very good. 17%, a little high in alcohol, so I tasted it slowly, but it has a presence that complements the food. I became a fan.

For my first Hiroshima sake in a while, I chose a new Seikagami sake, my first try 😀 . I knew the name, but it was my first time drinking it, so I was excited to open the bottle🍾 I've never tried it before, so I was very excited to try it! It's a mildly dry wine with a hint of sweetness, easy to pair with food, and I love it👍. I'm not sure what to make of this. I love it!

Japanese>English

Sour... a unique aroma... It has a bitter-sweet taste. Aromatic and dry? Because it is freshly squeezed. It has a fresh feeling. The aftertaste is interesting... It's not a popular sake right now, but it's a good choice for a food drink. I don't hate it. I never get tired of it. It's delicious...

Not much aroma...old-fashioned mellow umami-kuchi...it's a food sake 🍶 like the local Mukho Masamune or Teisho🌲...it's a sake that is only possible with snacks 🍶...the bitter aftertaste may bother you a little? I think the bitterness of the aftertaste is a little bit bothersome...classical...this is good...I think the hurdle is too high...I'm having it with fried Mexicali...little by little...with snacks...

Japanese>English

I wish you the best of luck with this one. 🍶🍶🍶🍶 This is my second time at Kurumizaka. This time I bought Jun Dai. I noticed after I bought it that it was manufactured in 2017.3 and shipped in 2020.9. ？？？？？ The first day I opened the bottle, I thought it had an unusual taste. The flavor and acidity are amplified. On the second day, the flavor and acidity are amplified and it seems to change with temperature. It's so good! 😋

Japanese>English

Forgotten things of summer. Kishu Tamakae, Yamahai Kurumazaka. Is the complex acidity in the Noto Toji style? The lingering taste is refreshing and perfect for summer.

I got it by the hometown tax payment of Fujieda city. The taste of fluffy rice. You can feel the history of Hatsukame Brewery, which was founded in 1636. It has a firm sharpness and is suitable for sipping. By the way, the one I drank I drank last year's fire-retarded version. This year, it has been upgraded to unfiltered raw sake This year, it seems to have been upgraded.

Japanese>English

Reminiscent of grapes, The fresh and fruity ginjo aroma is reminiscent of grapes, The sake rice is made from Honorifuji rice produced in Shizuoka, Japan. The sake rice is Honorifuji from Shizuoka, The rice is from Shizuoka's Honorifuji grape variety, and the rice polishing ratio is 55%. The alcohol content is a little light at 15 degrees Celsius, It is easy to drink with a meal.

Sake with a brewer's recommended drinking period of 30 days🍶. A special version of Hatsukame🐢's classic, unadulterated pure sake made with Honorifuji. Special version of unfiltered raw sake ✨ When you pour it into a glass, you can feel the tangy gas 🫧. The aroma is fruity grape. The taste has a strong umami flavor. Sweetness and a hint of acidity. The freshness of the unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake is so delicious 🎶!
