It keeps raining ☔️. We pray for the safety of everyone in the area! Now, for a change of pace... apple pom poms 🍎😊. Sweet and sour, apple & sake lees, or apple flavored amazake. The alcohol content seems to be light at 7%, but it is definitely sake. No, not sake like sake😅. I recommend chilling it to fully enjoy the sweet and sour taste, as the sakeiness will win at room temperature👍.

It's called Junmai, but it doesn't say what the rice polishing ratio is, so I guess it's treated as a regular sake. Yes, it is apple-like as the name suggests. It's very light, like water. You can drink it like juice, but some people might not like it enough. It really tastes like an apple!

I bought this because I wanted to drink something sweet and sour due to the hot weather. The fact that it is made from apples is really Aomori-like👍. When I opened the bottle and poured it, it had a strong acidic and crisp aroma. It has a strong acidic and crisp aroma. The taste is silky, sweet and sour, and it tastes more like apple cider vinegar than apple, which is good for the body. Although it is sweet and sour, it is not sharply acidic, but rather rounded with sweetness, making it easy to drink! Red and Jonagold apples, apple cider vinegar, apple yogurt.... It has an interesting taste that brings to mind many different kinds of apples. The aftertaste disappears quickly, so you can drink it smoothly as expected! Apple fever as expected! I saw a green apple version of this as well, so I'll have to get that 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.

Today, I went to Kanagawa Prefecture to get this one that I have been wanting to drink for a long time...fresh aroma, polished to 55% rice polishing ratio....sweet and bitter on the palate...quite bitter, but what is it? But what is it? It's a pure sake, but it's light and fresh! Oh, it's so good! Marriage of Odawara's fresh shirasu caught in the morning with a side dish....... Thanks for a luxurious evening drink!

Smells like muscat with a sour smell. Sour and sweet, gentle juicy to strong sweet taste. Good wood and yeast flavors that appear along the way. It is like a sweet Shinsei. It goes well with cheese. It is not so sweet that you can't finish your drink, but it is not sweeter than chocolate or potato kenpi. Delicious. Matsumidori: More than expected! When the temperature goes up, it somehow feels like a refreshing juice. It tastes good on the second day, too. You don't get tired of drinking it.

I've been wanting to try a bottle of my favorite Kanagawa sake 🍶 Matsu Midori... Koji rice is Okayama Yamadanishiki, Kake rice is Nagano Miyamanishiki, and the sake is brewed with No. 7 yeast at low temperature fermentation 🍶...the taste...mellow sweet and delicious 😋♪ Excellent balance of sweetness and acidity It's a great balance of sweetness and sourness! It's a sake that can be enjoyed in small sips, but since we're here, we're enjoying the Kanagawa marriage with Odawara local fish assortment and fried kamaboko from Suzuhiro......yummy!

Continuing from yesterday, a comparison of the tops of the median that was given to me by Princess Sabori: ‼️ First, the blue label ‼️ This is R3BY It's a Tokushun but with 50% polished rice 🤣. The aroma is like grape 🍇? It has a gentle sweetness and a bitter finish that is also gentle and tasty 😋 I think I prefer it to Araubashiri. Next, I'm going to try the R2BY black label supernatant 👍.

Forgot to post this😆 Then the R4's. I knew I prefer the taste of this one 😋. I think I like the taste of the one year aged one better 😋 It's mellower or calmer....
Japanese

English
Followed by Origami: ‼️ I took the supernatant before mixing it, and it was not so different from the supernatant before 🤣. No wonder 😆. When I mix it, the flavor is so much better 😋 I would like to repeat this 👍! It's also cosmetically good to buy only the "ogara-mi" and enjoy it twice 😆.

Sake degree -30 enjoyment. Smells fresh, like sliced apples. It has a smooth texture, pear-like nuances, and a slight effervescence, with a nice balance of a little sourness and bitterness. The lactic acidity, umami of rice, and a little bit of alcohol make it refreshing and delicious after drinking! I was surprised at how easy it was to drink because I was imagining a sweet juice. It has a buggy feeling like other sake is bitter because it is sweet but doesn't make you feel sweet. Day 2. Clear and good! Would buy again.

What the hell? Yum Kore! Shuwa shuwa fruity♪ I didn't know there was such a modern sake in Niigata? I was impressed. I definitely recommend it to people who like Kaze no Mori and Sancho. Perfect for a hot day like today. I drank the 4-pack bottle instantly after chilling it down to the perfect temperature. I'm sure I'll be a repeat customer.

On the second day of my trip to Niigata, I bought this at a liquor store near Niigata Station. I had been curious about it for a while, so I decided immediately. It has a rich sweetness and flavor, and a refreshing slight carbonation. I am very satisfied with it.

The sake content is around +12. As the name "super dry" suggests. As the name implies, it's like water that cuts cleanly. However, it has a faint ginjo aroma and It has a subtle ginjo aroma and a subdued rice flavor. It complements the meal.

No longer slightly carbonated! It has a full, rice-like sweetness, probably due to the 60% rice polishing ratio. However, as I drank it, I felt it was an elegant sweetness. In addition, the acidity is refreshing. At 9% alcohol by volume for an unpasteurized sake, it's surprisingly low! You can drink as much as you like.

Very clean and clear, with a Elegant aftertaste🌟. The sweetness of Miyamanishiki is slightly🌾 It is hot and humid everyday. It makes me feel more appetite. Miyamanishiki rice from Nagano prefecture Polishing ratio: 50%.

Smells of lactic acid and green apple. The mild rice flavor is followed by a lactic acidity and a slightly mellowed acidity, then bitterness, acidity, and umami. It is delicious. The impression is clearer when paired with a meal. Probably the cheapest sake in this brewery. I am interested in the others.

The one I've been wondering about for a while. I thought it would be just a light mist, but I was surprised that it came out quite well. It's not too sweet and it's dry. It's like a cider 🍎🥂.

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!

Is this your first Ryusei? Maybe I've had it before, I'm not sure. The label is a dragon, how do you say? It is stamped with a mold, which is also good! The aroma is modest. Soft acidity in the mouth. It is slightly fruity. It is said that this sake is a challenge to use wild yeast. I will try to drink more sakes from various breweries!

Not much aroma. Slightly yellowish. The sake is junmai sake, so you would expect it to be robust, but it has a light mouthfeel. The light sweetness and acidity are pleasant. It is only 500 ml, so it ran out quickly. I wonder if I should throw it away or reuse it after drinking out of the Italian bottle every time. I'm a poor person, aren't I?
