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😙.

Japanese>English

Gassy, white wine-like acidity and sweetness. A hint of bitterness. Muscat-like aroma. Delicious.

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!

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

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!

The aroma is subtle, and the flavor does not interfere with the food...! You can feel the deliciousness of the rice, but it has a good balance of humility 🍶 No wonder it's so popular...I'll be sipping it with a side of Hakata's specialty "sesame mackerel" and Chiba's specialty "sesame sardines"...sipping it with a sip!

I had my first bottle of Shinshin in spring and it was delicious! I was able to get a bottle of Shinshin's summer sake, and I immediately opened it 😋. Slightly sweet and refreshing taste like summer sake🤣. It's as refreshing as the label says and perfect for a hot day like today 👍 thanks for the drink❗️

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've had Okayama sake. This is the first time I've had Shinshin, but it's refreshing, easy to drink, and makes an excellent food sake. It's delicious😌. I'd like to try other kinds of Shinshin or Winter Moon.

This is the world's best regular sake from Yumeshin Shuzo. I had it at room temperature. It is a delicious sake that is full-bodied, deliciously sweet, with a touch of dryness in between 🎶.

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've had a Yumeshin: ❗️ While Naraman is fruity and gorgeous, this sake has a robust taste and a slightly unique aroma 🤔. I don't mind it with a meal. but with just this one, it's a bit hard to drink 😅.

Japanese>English

Purchased in a set sale with Tobiroki. Yumeshin? I thought, "I don't know this..." and then I found out that it is the brewery of Naraman. I was relieved and at the same time I was relieved, but at the same time I was relieved, but at the same time, I was reminded that preconceived notions are not good 😅. Fukushima's original yeast "Utsukushima Yume Yeast" is used. The brewery uses Fukushima's original yeast, "Utsukushima Yume Yeast". It was launched to the ISS last year and spent 37 days in a zero-gravity space. It was launched to the ISS last year and spent 37 days in a zero-gravity space. It has a light touch of sweetness, followed by a slightly dry taste. It is a bit dry after a light touch of sweetness, but it is rather fruity.... But it's a bit fruity.... But after drinking Takachiyo, which is +19 on the sake level, I realized that Yumeshin is not dry at all. I realized that Yumeshin is not dry at all 😂.

Another beautiful bottle this year. I was able to obtain it. The blue gradation is wonderful! I think last year it was the color of wild cherry. The taste is soft and gentle. Delicious! It didn't have the piquancy of a fresh sake. Like?

Japanese>English

It is quite pungent, and the acidity creates a bit of sweetness. I think it is a crisp sake.

Japanese>English

It has a soft freshness. Creamy aroma, like vanilla. The mouthfeel is quite silky, with a hint of sweetness and flavor. There is a hint of citrus. Mild, but with a bitter and spicy aftertaste. Rather than drinking it by itself, it is very suitable for drinking with food. A bit alcoholic for me😅. I'd like to give it some time and see how it changes.

The sake that Rafa ordered. I exchanged it for the sake I ordered and drank some. The rice is said to be modified Nobukou. Unlike the straight kumi-style sake, it is calm and has a mild sweetness. It is more like a classic sake. The official website says it is about -7, so I think it is more on the sweet side. If you think of it as the standard sake of the brewery, it is quite high. It seems that Rafa has a connection with Satte City, where Toyoake's brewery is located, and I thought such an episode was interesting.

Japanese>English

Toyoake in Satte, Saitama Prefecture. When I tasted it last week at Koedo Kurasato in Kawagoe, I felt its obvious individuality and immediately bought a 4-goupe bottle because I wanted to drink it at home. It is a fire-aged junmai sake with a slightly sweet, dark flavor and a modern acidity. It has character. The subtitle and the message on the back label are also good. The waka poem written on the box? on the box is also nice. The slight coloring is due to the limited amount of charcoal used in the filtration process.

Japanese>English

Fresh sake with standing acidity and fruity taste. It has the complexity of nigori, but could use a little more refinement. It is still delicious, but there is still room for improvement.

The mouthfeel is sweet and bitter, and then it quickly turns into a crisp, refreshing sake! It has a rich rice flavor...delicious...I can't help but drink too much...a brewery with high expectations for the future...I want to drink many things from this brewery...!
