I wanted to drink hot sake with Mr. Hiraccio. Yum. My stomach was cold, so I feel relieved. We ended up having a lot of hot sake and went to the after-party. The lemon sour was very aggressive.

This is the first time to drink this brand❗️ This sake is sold at a limited number of stores❗️ The only place to buy it is from the liquor store that was involved in making the rice. Aroma of yogurt❗️Taste I'm sure you'll be able to find something that you like, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to find something that I like. I'm sure you'll agree that it's a great idea.

I had a bottle of this last month, and it tasted like wine, so even if you don't like sake, I recommend it. I finished a bottle in no time. I'd definitely buy it if I could find it in a store😋.

January 29, 2024 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I had a casual drink with my junior colleague who recently got into Sake. The fourth glass was my first sake, Miyako Bijin The fourth glass was a freshly squeezed, light nigori sake of Miyako Bijin, which is a first for me. It is silky, sweet and bitter (with a weak bitterness). Silky, sweet and bitter (with a weak bitterness).

Wow, it's so sour! I thought, but the label on the back said it was made that way. Come to think of it, it might be just right for the coming season. So we enjoyed it.

Japanese>English

My first nigorizake. It smells like grapefruit and tastes like Calpis soda. It's a sweet and sour strange drink⁉️It's also dangerous because of its low alcohol content. But it was very tasty😃💡.

Japanese>English

It's my first time to drink Hiraizumi❗️ I've never had a Junmai Daiginjo from Yamahai 🤔. It doesn't have a fruity aroma❗️ Somewhat spicy aroma and taste😅 It's very unusual. I've tasted it somewhere before but can't remember where 😥. It's a daiginjo so it has a clean aftertaste. But to be honest, it wasn't my favorite taste 😥. I wonder what other Hiraizumi tastes like❓

At home. Nagano sake bought in bulk - ‼️ Purchased Nagano sake at Kyoto Takimoto today: ‼️ I tasted one of them, Kiyama, for the first time. The aroma is gorgeous and there is sweetness in the supernatant. If you mix it well, you can feel the sweetness and sourness before the sourness, and it stimulates your tongue. ‼️ I would like to check the taste change after the second day, but yes, it is a delicious sake. ‼️

Japanese>English

First time at a brewery series-! Supperly! Dry? High proof for two days in a row. Is this the first time the keyword "cemedine"? It's like that! It doesn't say niggly, but at the end it's cloudy! What a surprise! Surprise!

Shinshu Kunisake 👀 found at my favorite restaurant. It was my first time to try it and I had no prior knowledge of it, but I was attracted by the recommendation of the store owner and the delicious-looking label, so I took it home with me. When I opened the bottle, a refreshing ginjo aroma rose up 😙. It's been a long time since I've had a sake with a corkage involved. The unique sourness, sweetness, and citrus-like bitterness combine perfectly as you take a sip, and the shwashiness tightens up the flavor 😋. This is delicious❣️My wife also raved about it👏. I didn't know this kind of sake existed 😳 I've never seen such a good sake 😳 Shinshu Kokusai Sake has a wide range of delicious sake.

At home. First Hiroshima, first Saijotsuru. The aroma seems to have a strong alcohol feeling. The sourness spreads in the mouth, and the sweetness comes a little later. I am impressed by the fact that even a long-established sake brewery is trying to challenge various things. It is a drinkable size, and I drank it up very quickly. It was delicious.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we paired this first sake with Japanese food for dinner. Saijotsuru Jun Dai Black Label Hibi Seishin Nakadori Nama Sake✨. I have not had much luck with Hiroshima sake so far, but I hope this will be a new encounter for you: ☺️ I've never had much luck with Hiroshima sake, but I'm hoping to meet some new people. Is Tachika a characteristic of the rice? Is it the yeast? The aroma is not so strong, but it is a bit of a "chemi" aroma. The taste has the fresh acidity and clear quality of Nakadori Nama-shu, with soft fruit flavors of muscat and lychee, and finishes crisply with a dry taste with a strong sense of alcohol in the latter half. It is perfect as a food sake and does not interfere with meals, but it is also delicious when drunk on its own 😋.

Japanese>English

It's delicious, with a gassy, concentrated tropical-like sweet flavor. It's sweet, but not as floral or fruity as I thought it would be.

Good evening, another first in the series from Sugiyuu here 💁. I don't know the reason for the 🐈🐈🐈 label, but I will try it without thinking too much. It has the typical Omachi aroma of chemise and citrus with a hint of maturity. The taste is quite distinct with a sugary sweetness, a little sourness, a little spiciness, and a long lingering bitterness. It has a high alcohol content of 17%, but it is easy to drink.

Japanese>English

Drinking with Mr. Uma Uma Uma and Mr. Uma Uma (2) I haven't had a drink at home yet. It's been about 4 years since I've had a drink outside. This is Jun Natsu. Well, wasn't there a gradol named Jun Natsukawa? I know, right? Unlike the label and the brand's image, it is slightly fruity and moderately sweet. It has a refreshing, summery taste. It will continue for a while.

After drinking Shikishima about a month ago, I became interested in Fukumochi Sake Brewery (Tenga Nishiki) who helped me with Shikishima Sake Brewery! I looked up where they sold it and was surprised to find a special distributor near me 😲. I ended up buying three different kinds! It's like a muscat with a standing aroma! The first sip gives the impression of being rich, but the mouthfeel is clear. I didn't taste much sweetness. The rich taste is followed by the umami of the rice, which is also heavy and robust. There is a slight alcohol aftertaste. The bitterness is also moderate~! If I have a chance, I'd like to try the raw sake.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Tenka Nishiki ✨This is delicious 😋It has a gentle sweetness, a good amount of gas, a moderate aroma, a subtle bitterness in the second half, and a nice sharpness👍. Today I had a seafood bowl with spring sea urchin from Okhotsk, scallops from Eruption Bay, and Miyagi Miyagi salmon! Ahhhh, delicious! ‼️

Tonight, a little early in the evening & first in the series, a Fukunoka Yamahai Jungin Nakakkumi Unfiltered Nama from Kunigon ✨. The aroma is mild cucumber, melon 🍈 The taste has just the right amount of rice and honey-like sweetness, followed by a layer of acidity and spiciness that makes it very easy to drink and I love it 😋😋😋😋.

With Ihyakumangoku and Fukushima's original yeast, there is nothing to look forward to but enjoyment. Is the modest fruity taste from Gohyakumangoku? It is mellow like an autumn sake. But it is sharp.
