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

The sake I chose when I returned home for Obon was Gold Junmai Daiginjo by Popular Sake Brewery. This sake brewery is very particular about the traditional method of making sake, and everything is made in wooden vats. It is a junmai daiginjo that is polished to 50%, so there is no cloying taste at all ✨It starts with an elegant sweetness and rice flavor, with the aroma of the wooden vat and a slight bitterness at the end. Delicious 😊.

Clean and easy to drink. It has a lychee-like aroma and a banana-like sweetness. It's dry on the throat, but you can feel the sourness and sweetness. I personally like it better when the temperature rises a little and it's closer to room temperature.

It was given to me by someone who went on a trip. ice cracker even more delicious The label on the bottle is curious, but I'll take it as it is for now. The aroma is pleasant, but it is not flowery, and the flavor also gives a crisp impression. The alcohol content is a little strong. The overall flavor is neither good nor bad, but not very distinctive. However, it is quite spicy and strong as it goes down the throat. After two sips, I finally remembered the meaning of the label. I checked the alcohol content again and found it to be 19%. So that's what it is, a sake that is just right on the rocks. It is a sake for the rocks, which seems to be a rare thing to find. It is good on the rocks as well, though I think I am being led to believe that it is. It is good on the rocks. However, as I mentioned at the beginning, there are basically no outstanding characteristics, and the alcohol content has become just right, so it has finally become just an ordinary tasty, well-chilled sake. Well, maybe that's the best.

It was a gift ✨. New politics again! First time for Uhei Sato It's so delicious ✨. It's a little fizzy and sweet, just like Shinsei. It's very easy to drink, but... You can feel the flavor of the rice well ☺️. I was going to drink it for my birthday, but I couldn't resist the temptation of Shinsei.

We received a bottle of "Sato Ubei" from Shinmasa Sake Brewery! It is a very special sake that is rarely seen, and the moment it is poured into a glass, it is already filled with a sense of "preciousness" and "gratitude. It is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The aroma is elegant and deep, with a sense of transparency that is typical of Shinmasa, while the taste is calm. In the mouth, it has a beautiful taste with both delicacy and depth, and the umami of the rice and lingering aftertaste are superb. It has a somewhat serene and dignified appearance, and is a sake that seems to be the liquid expression of the brewer's thoughts. It was a miracle to have this bottle, but when I actually tried it, I was even more impressed than it was worth. It was truly delicious and made me want to savor it as if chewing it slowly for a "special time" 😊.

Sake from a sake brewery in the northern part of the prefecture, located in the famous production area of Hachitan-Nishiki, Hiroshima's representative sake rice. The brewery has been working on it since the rice was first produced. The name of the sake is "Miwa Sakura" instead of "Miwa Zakura," which I had been misreading for a long time. It is said to be dry, but the quality of the sake is relatively soft. It has a nice sharp aftertaste and is easy to drink. It is quite my favorite 😋. I had it cold, but I think it can also be served warm.

At home. This is my first Shiga, Matsunoji. The aroma is gorgeous and has a slight semedyne smell. There is a sweetness and a little tingling in the mouth, and there is an alcohol feeling that goes through the nose, but it is clear and light and easy to drink. The Kinki region was filled with this.

This is the Tsukasa Matsunosuke version of the "Face Up, Little by Little, Forward" series. The situation of the Corona disaster is still severe, but still we should not give up hope and cherish what we can do now. Just like the athletes working hard in the Olympics right now😌. This sake has a refreshing melon flavor with a hint of rice 😋. This is the first time I've ever tried it with eel kabayaki. It's so good! I finally filled in the map of the Kansai area 😙.

Second souvenir from KazKaz. It is a brand name planned and sold by 7 sake stores in Aomori. Rice used is 100% Hanasoui. The top-tasting aroma is a calm ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is slightly sweet with a strong umami flavor. The aftertaste is reminiscent of classical sake, and is quickly cut by a refreshing acidity and bitterness. It is an orthodox dry sake, but highly satisfying. Thank you for the treat!

The sweetness with a hint of tenderness and spiciness 😄]. This sake is brewed by a sake brewery famous for its Kimmiya shochu. I saw Sanad and Nemuchi rave about this brand a long time ago, and it was on my list of things to drink. The sweet and gentle aroma is pleasant. It has a pleasant sweetness in the mouth and a long, lingering spiciness after swallowing. It has a strong alcoholic taste and a rather robust flavor. This is one of my favorite types 😋. It is good with simmered dishes in Japanese cuisine. It has a wide range of dishes that can be matched with western food as well👍.

This is a gift from an acquaintance, a long aged honjozo. It has a beautiful amber color with a good balance between the full flavor of the rice and the aroma like Shaoxing wine, and it goes well with strong meals.

At home. Hatsutanaka Rokuugo. A famous sake, but I didn't know much about it... Yamada-Nishiki, it's a tanaka in the middle of a rice field. I knew it for the first time. The aroma is fruity (Muscat type?). Good balance of sweetness, umami, acidity, and bitterness. It is a quintessential gem, suitable to be enjoyed in a relaxed and leisurely manner.

(人 -͈ᴗ-͈)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I had my first Tanaka Rokuugo 😀 The aroma is fresh and gentle, like grapes 😙 When you drink it, the subtle umami of rice and acidity are well balanced and it goes down a treat. It is a good sake for a meal 🤔This is a delicious sake 😄.

Junmai-shu, 65% polished rice, brewed by Mr. Tanaka in a sake brewery located in the rice paddies. Tanaka Rokuugo. I knew it was delicious from everyone's postings on Sake no Wa 😊. I thought it would be more of a gusto, but it was a delicious sake with a gentle rice flavor and a light texture♪ Kyushu has an image of shochu, but I was surprised at the high level of sake as well, including Tanaka Rokuugo, Koei Kiku, and Sundo 😆. I'm looking forward to trying some of the other sake I have in stock 😁.
