Holy shit! 🍶🍶🍶🍶 A glass of Kikumasamune sake 😀. Even though it's a regular sake, it's quite fruity like it says on the back. It's delicious🤗maybe the best cup-based sake I've ever had😙I really might recommend it🤔.

Bacchus and Yamaha 2023, Toyama Eki-naka BAR ^ ^. The fourth drink is Narimasa, Junmai Daiginjo, 2021 Sake Brewing Year. 2 years old sake. Every sake at Narimasa is 100 yen per glass. Too cheap. I didn't really feel the sense of maturity, but it is a slightly dry sake with a long aftertaste.

Japanese>English

The freshness of the sweetness spreads. Sourness comes into play at the end. Scented! Yummy 😋 Very good 👍 lol.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Nanto City Purchased at an antenna store in Toyama Prefecture The aroma is mild, slightly fruity. The overall impression is DRY. The finish is moderately bitter and spicy. It is a good food sake.

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

I like this strain for its sweet and savory taste!

The next drink was a Tokujiro for Joyo's distributor? Tokujiro I drank Joyo several times, but this was my first time to drink Tokujiro. I happened to see on a restaurant instagram I follow that Tokujiro was originally a joint product between a Hirakata liquor store and the Joyo Brewery. It's unfiltered, once-bottled, and heated. It's fire-brewed, but it's still slightly effervescent and has a fresh, mellow rice flavor that's really tasty 😋. I'll buy Tokujiro next time I see it.

〰fixture 2020 R02BY Finishing No.16 🌾 Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture R03/07 It was chilled well. The bottle was opened without any explosion. It stimulates the tongue with a swoosh. It has a thick nigori taste. The taste of rice is thick but smooth. It has a thick rice flavor that is unique to nigori, but it is smooth and crisp.

Takashi Kofuji Special Junmai Nama Sake. Like kino.san, I thought it was takashi at first😅.

Japanese>English

Takashi is a first time drinker. It has a strong umami flavor with a little chestnut and nutty taste. It has a modest flavor with little assertiveness, and is suitable for a mealtime drink. I think it is suitable for aging. I prefer it at a higher temperature than when it is chilled.

Today, too, I wanted to drink. I went to Tobu Ikebukuro for the first time in a while 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️. In the event corner, I found 🟪The pink label stands out! It's a sake from Kyoto, isn't it⤴︎︎? I'm going to choose this one 💁🏼♂️️. Open the bottle! ✨Pon~✨and a surprisingly good sound! Then, a sip... the rice flavor from the mouthful of acidity ⤴︎ and the aftertaste, great! It's delicious 😋! Shall we continue to watch 24 hours TV?

@ Daikokuya Liquor Store Maniacal selection of products, I thought I would go back. Rice used is Kame-no-o. It has a gaseous taste with a crisp and clean aftertaste. It is gorgeous. The sweetness is a little strong, but it goes in smoothly. It was a solid and delicious sake ❗️.

Japanese>English

Nanamaru's Nama Sake 🍶. As always, a bold drink! Plenty of umami stored in the bottle The strong acidity also tightens the taste. Sake that is quite drinkable! It has been a long time since I wanted to drink it. I got the news of new sake! I will enjoy it slowly.

Kyushu Tour. Recommended in. It is sharp from the flavor of rice. Goes well with meals.

Japanese>English

Last sake I bought last year as a Kumamoto souvenir. If I have a chance to visit Kumamoto again, I would like to visit Aso and Kikuchi area 😌. When opened and poured, it has a sweet aroma like sugar and sugarcane. The mouthfeel is crisp and immediately afterwards has the plumpness of rice plus the sweet and spicy taste of brewer's alcohol. The flavor is stable from start to finish, with a delicious standard taste! The unadorned taste is a perfect accompaniment to a meal 👍. I would like to visit 4 unexplored prefectures (Kochi, Miyazaki, Kagoshima, Okinawa), but there are many places I would like to revisit. 🗺️

Japanese>English

The first sake brewery. Sake made with Hananishiki rice and Kumamoto yeast. Slightly acidic. The harmony of sweet and spicy is well-balanced and easy to drink.

First time to drink a Hokkaido sake 🍶Fresh citrusy aroma? Sweet and bitter on the palate...maybe a little bitter....sharp aftertaste! The aftertaste is good, but... a little bit of a tangy taste? I wonder if it is a characteristic of the sake rice... is it like this? Hmmm... it's a little bitter...

Japanese>English

(˶◜˶◝˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we had a hiyayoroshi of Ezokuma from Hokkaido 😀. The aroma is mild 😊The sourness and umami taste you feel in your mouth is well balanced, with a slight sweetness😚It has a strong flavor 💕It has a good sharpness 🤔It is a delicious sake that would go well with anything 😘.

Japanese>English

The rice is comet. It is sweeter than the junmai ginjos I have had in the past. After the gentle, fluffy sweetness, the bitterness comes quickly and then converges. It gives the impression of being sweet and bitter. Well, I regret buying Gokotsuru when I had a hard time deciding.
