Dry Acidity Bitterness Umami Fruity Fresh Invigorating Sweetness

Hitogochi rice is used. I got the impression that the freshness and fruity sweet/umami taste was accented by a slight bitterness. I think I prefer the Misuzu Junmai Ginjo I drank before, which has a stronger sweet/fruity flavor. I think it gets sweeter and better after a longer time than when it is freshly opened.

Japanese>English

At the usual place, in the usual way. Dry chilled sake, refreshing and easy to drink. It was delicious!

Japanese>English

Miyamanishiki 49% polished rice. Fruity aroma like apples. When you drink it, it is mild and refreshingly sweet and spicy. Unlike the impression on the label, it has a modern taste.

I asked if there was anything cold? I asked and a rare sake was served 😳. This Kikutaka is no longer available 😊. Thankfully we had it 😃. It has a rich flavor as if it is unfiltered Yamahai, and the acidity is quite strong and peculiar 😊. I think it is a good choice for those who drink it 😊.

This one was given to me in return for sake I sent to my boss, and it's my first Fukuoka Prefecture sake! I didn't know what to choose when it came to Fukuoka sake, so I'm very grateful to be able to drink it in this form! It is a well-balanced and delicious sake. The most wonderful thing about this sake is that it is fire-aged, so it is hard to lose this flavor. It tastes great even after a few days. Although there is sweetness, it does not bother you too much because the main flavor is umami. What is this feeling of being able to drink without getting tired of it? It is not so much sourness, bitterness, or astringency, and it is strange that it is smooth but somehow deep and earthy. Actually, I forgot to post this post after drinking it, but I had this one for New Year's Day. This kind of aromatic and light sake was definitely a good match for Japanese dishes like Osechi. My first Fukuoka sake was a simple and good sake.

Japanese>English

It has a good fruity aroma and taste. It was refreshing and easy to drink.

Japanese>English

100% Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima, Fukuoka Prefecture. It has a firm taste. It is not spectacular, but it has a umami taste and is dry. but it has a delicious flavor and dry taste. It went well with the bitterness of the roasted yellowtail.

No.12, Makiki. This Kyuneki dry sake was from the famous Takachiyo Brewery 😳. I had no idea 💦. When I tried it, oh my! Nice sake✨! Sharpened and clear, followed by umami and dryness 💪. Light but powerful 💪. Goes well with fish 🐟.

Japanese>English

GW has been too hot. It's over 30 degrees Celsius again today 😱. So, I wanted to drink a crisp sake, so I opened a bottle. I wanted to try Makiki. If Takachiyo is good, Makiki must be good too, right? Yes, it is good. It has an apple aroma and a bit tangy. It's a refreshing adult cider-like sake with a moderate sweetness. It is a perfect drink for when the weather is getting hotter.

Yum! Easy to drink but with thickness.

It is delicious. When I read Shinzo, it was Kagura. I bought it at Shimada Sake Shop because I thought the typeface of Shinzo was cool. As it says, "the corners are removed and the sake becomes rounded." It is delicious!

Japanese>English

I was deleting photos and found an unposted one. I'll register this brand because I don't drink much. I was attracted to this sake because it is "limited to restaurants". The fact that it is not limited to Izakaya (Japanese-style pubs) is very Kyoto-like. I remember we were all oohing and aahing over the cool label when the bottle came out!

At home. First time on Mt. Ena ~ ‼️ I thought it was absolutely delicious and bought it. And I opened the bottle immediately. Well, the aroma is gorgeous. It is smooth, fruity, and has a perfect balance of sweet and sour tastes. ‼️ It is also very easy to drink, so it was a perfect choice. ‼️ My son, who was with me, took a sip and tasted it. He said, "It has a noticeable sourness. He understood very well. I felt that our family's level of Japanese sake tasting is improving little by little.

Type: junmai daiginjo, rice: Gohyakumangoku 76% Yamada Nishiki 24%, polishing rate: 35%, alc.: 16% Sweet aroma of ripe bananas. Flavor is juicy and sweet. Sweetness is balanced with gentle acidity. Sake is elegant and clean, it almost feels like water from a spring. Finish is lingering in mounth for quite a while.

It's the first time to drink this alcohol❗️. The aroma is a hint of banana🍌 The taste is quite sweet☺️. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it'll be great for you.

It's not a scent... it's more of a... distinctive smell... and I can definitely tell it's fermented... lactic acid bacteria? Strong acidity! It's a very unique wine, so I think it's a very special drink. I think the flavor is a little more mellow on the second day after opening. It was well preserved, but... but does it really taste like this? That scent? It smells like fresh laundry... like an old wooden tub... and I don't like it... I don't...

Japanese>English

This was also purchased at Oka Sake Shoten, the same place as Unjaku. The aroma is mild but unique. The aroma is mild but unique, and it has a light aged feeling, probably because it has been shipped for a long time. If you drink it cold, it has some peculiarities, but overall it is flat. The umami acidity has a strong impact. It would be good to warm it up as well. According to the staff at the store, they won't be making PURE PINK this year. When heated, the sweet and savory flavor really shines through. I definitely recommend it over cold sake.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Omachi from Okayama Prefecture. It has a dark mouthfeel and a bit of maturity, but as the days go by, it becomes more rounded and changes to a level where even those who are not good at it can go. However, even though it has become more rounded and easier to drink, the sweetness and strength of the Omachi can still be clearly seen, so there will be different tastes. For me, it's a very interesting sake! The first day I opened the bottle, I thought it might be too peculiar to pair with a meal. However, from the second day onwards, while maintaining its richness, it gradually becomes lighter and lighter, and is not bad as a food sake. If you roll it around in your mouth, it is a nicely aged sake, but if you drink it with gusto, you can drink it without worrying too much. Still, I want to enjoy the aged feeling of this kind of sake, so drinking it a little bit every day is good for me.

٩٩٩@🍶🍶🍶🍶 We opened a bottle of Taiheikai today😄. I've only had Taiheikai 1314 once and it's been a while since I've bought it ✨😀😀. Almost no aroma 🤔In the mouth, it is fire-brewed but the sensation of freshness fills the mouth. It's a good combination of matured and fresh 😚😊Mellow and calm with a good umami and a crisp acidity 😋. I don't know if it is suitable for today's suddenly cooler weather, but it was delicious . I don't know, but it was delicious 🥳.

Japanese>English

I wish you the best of luck with this one: 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we had the Taiheikai 😀. The aroma is mild and when you drink it, it's fresh and fruity with a slight swoosh😄The acidity comes at the end but just right✨. It was a modern type of sake😙.

Sentoku, a gift from Sentoku...Junmai is a traditional ...the... Junmai is a traditional sake...the local sake! It's a little bit different from the popular sake...but I think it's a good sake for a meal. I don't like Ginshizuku and Kinshizuku because they are alkaloids... Thanks for the hard-to-find sake 🍶... Hmmm... I guess that's what general sake is like.... Now I have to go to Okinawa...

Ordered to win the national championship. The rice has a robust flavor. It is surprisingly easy to cut. Perfect with meat dishes.

I wish I could have been there to see it all! The other day I walked past the liquor section of a large supermarket and found a familiar name for a sake 😁I found Chitoku, the gateway to Miyazaki Prefecture 🐎 breaking through the impregnable castle gate of Miyazaki Prefecture 🐎. It's a cup of sake, but it's a celebration. If I hadn't seen the sakenowa, I wouldn't have noticed it. Thank you all 😄😄😄.

I bought it at my usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten! This is the second of three bottles of Hiyoroshi Autumn Age 🍶. 720ml 📌 ¥1,562 Here's a quick comment! The aroma is fruity💕. The color is beautiful💕Expectations are high💕 The mouthfeel is a little thick. I feel the spiciness in my mouth, but I also feel the sweetness 💕I feel the deliciousness and sweetness of the rice after a little delay, but there is also a little bitterness 👍 Today I'm drinking it by itself, but it's surprisingly good ^_^✌️ Tomorrow I will try it with a meal 😁.

Japanese>English

Today is a party with my daughter and her husband. It's also a birthday party for my father and mother. The aroma is fruity, and the taste is full of rice flavor, but the spiciness comes a little later than the sweetness, making it a refreshing drink. Today's pairing is onigiri with miso dengaku. It's gone in a minute!
