Kitajima's summer sake. Last time, we enjoyed Aizan's Namemoto. This time, it's a Yamada Nishiki Junmai Ginjo. It is brewed with a beautiful dry taste. It is a very elegant and cool beautiful sake. The aroma is subdued and the taste is refreshing. The finish is refreshing. The aftertaste is refreshing. Aouarashi is a seasonal word for summer. "The wind that blows across the green leaves in early summer. It's just like that.

This is Kitajima Miyamanishiki Junmai Ginjo Origarami Raw. It is a delicious sake with a mellow and fresh taste. It was easy to open the bottle👍This was my first time at the brewery and it is delicious😋.

I think this is my first time drinking Kitajima 🤔. octopus🐙 was very impressive on the label and I was curious about it, but this time I decided to try the orikagami❗️. The aroma is like melon🍈 or pineapple🍍😆. When you drink it, it is moderately sweet and very easy to drink👍 But I've never heard of rice called mizukagami 😅. I️ don't know the characteristics but it was a delicious sake that was easy to drink.

It has a sweet rice aroma rather than a fruity one. Unlike the popular sake of today, it has a strong bitter sweet taste...mellow umami taste...you can feel the flavor of the rice...it's a Junmai with a strong presence...it's like a sake for the sake connoisseur.

I wish I could have been there 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I had business in Toyama, so I bought it at Liquor Pocket Mizuhata by the way. It's a great way to start the day. I had it after a long time, but it is still good.

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 😄😄😄.

[First brand I've been able to drink in about 10 years👍] I got a bottle of Kiri-Tsukuba's light nigori nama-zake (unpasteurized sake) from a hometown tax payment. It is a popular brand that is consumed almost exclusively locally, but it appears that there was some new sake left from last year that will be shipped in December 2022. ✌️ Although it has been over a year, it has not lost much of its freshness with a slight effervescence, and on the other hand, it has a moderate calmness that is quite nice 😋. It has a sweetness, but the refreshing alcohol taste and crispness are the result of the aluzochu liqueur. Like last month's Onra, it's nice to be able to get a brand that is hard to find through hometown tax payment 😆.

Tonight, we have Kirizukuba Hatsushushibori Light Nigori from Urasato Shuzoten ✨ This one is popular with Ogawa yeast users. I was attracted by the combination of Ogawa yeast, Gohyakumangoku, and light nigori, so I bought it 😅. Let's start with the supernatant. It has a rich sweet aroma of muskmelon red flesh, which is typical of Ogawa yeast, and the taste is very delicious as if you bit into a whole muskmelon 😋 Also, although this sake is alky, there is no stinginess in the aftertaste at all, and the bitterness and spiciness show up and the balance is excellent 👍. The spiciness of the aftertaste is doubled when the lees are involved, making it a sake with a different expression. It is a fun sake 🤗.

This is the Ageha no Mai Junmai Sake Gin no Sato. It is a sweet and delicious sake with a mild fruity aroma and a refreshing taste.
Japanese

English
The smell is slightly alcoholic, with a hint of grapes when stirred. Taste is thick and juicy on the tongue, and the fruitiness quickly fades from the rice flavor, leaving a bitter aftertaste. The bitterness lingers for a long time. It is as if it is expressing the feeling of drinking the wine with the sound of "chiri-chiri-chiri-kuchi-kuchi-soon. There is no gassy feeling. Delicious with yatsuhashi.

Next was a Hiroshima sake called HANAHATO. It is a junmai ginjo made from 100% Senbon-Nishiki. The label is a rabbit, the Chinese zodiac sign for the New Year. Actually, this and the next brand were given to me by another business partner. We met next to each other at a meeting, drank together at the dinner table, talked about sake, and had a great time. We are also regular customers of Gin no Sake Kibune, and we receive items purchased from there every time we visit. m(_ _)m The taste is soft and sweet. The taste is soft sweetness with a hint of umami on top. It is a beautiful tasting food sake. Everyone drank it with smiling faces. It was delicious! (^O^)

I wish you all the best and I hope you will be able to help me out. 🍶🍶🍶🍶 For the first time, I got some Edo Kaijo 😀. The aroma is slightly refreshing 🤔. When you drink it, it has the freshness that only sake can have, with a refreshing yet firm acidity 😊It tastes like muscat 😚. It was a delicious sake 🥳.

The sake I've been looking forward to watching in Tokyo, Wakamatsu Tokyo Minato Zoushu (pure ginjo sake). It has a faint aroma and a sweet and spicy taste. # I need another drink...

I've had it for drinking out of doors, Edo Kaijo! Is it brewed in Shiba, Minato-ku? Dry! Is the alcohol content high? I thought it would be 14 degrees. I vaguely thought it might be 17 degrees since it was labeled as a pure sake, but..., But I was wrong, Well, it is no wonder I felt that way. It tasted sharp.

I bought this sake on my Nagano expedition! I was curious about it because of your post. But there is no special distributor in my neighborhood 😭. As per the rumors? Just as you posted! I'm so glad I bought it! And it's cloudy. It has a hint of acidity (I think?) It has a hint of acidity (or so I thought) and is refreshing! (I thought so.) I'll have to go to a distributor next time.

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...

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! 😋

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.

Peach, sourness, and a carbonation-like smell. As the temperature rises, the sugary-sweet smell and alcohol taste grows. Slightly effervescent, the fruity flavor expands as it is swirled in the mouth. It has a sense of rice, sweetness, pear-like acidity, and a mellow, bitter umami. The low alcohol content makes it easy to drink. Bunraku is delicious. Cheap. I will buy it again. Second day. Alcohol 16%. Not low alcohol. Fruity mouthfeel with a unique acidity, crisp and easy to drink.

Smells like unsweetened peaches, pool, grass, alcohol, mango. Slightly slightly carbonated, sweet juicy, zesty and uniquely sour. Good. Feels pulled in by what you ate just before. At about room temperature, it's gentle and tastes like lemon water, easy to drink and delicious. Second day. The acidity is more fruity. It is more coherent and easier to drink than yesterday's. The smell is sweet and sour.

Lightly fruity smell. Tossed with a little sourness, then pear, daisy, honey lemon, grapefruit. The bitter and fruity taste, the unique acidity, and the hard water? The complex flavor of the hard water is very good, and it has a broad range of taste. The sweetness is the most obvious and refreshing. The combination of bitterness and fruity, flavorful and fruity, is addictive. None of them are overly assertive. It is so easy to drink that you gradually want to drink it in one gulp. I think I will finish it today or tomorrow!

The freshness of new sake with a fruity sweetness and a ginjo aroma. Fruity sweetness and ginjo aroma. It cuts cleanly, so it is easy to drink with food. It is easy to drink with a meal. Sake rice is Dewa Sanbaku, and the rice polishing ratio is 60%.
