Acidity Lemon Dry Invigorating Umami Citrusy Bitterness Crisp

I bought this one after tasting it with Daikoku Masamune at Yamamoto Sake Shop in Kuise and wondering about it. I had tasted Tomikunaga in the past, but this was the first time I bought it. This is a rice called Yatanso, which is used only by Tomikunaga. It has just the right amount of gas and sweetness. Not too sweet, but just the right amount. It is like the sweetness and umami of rice. Balanced type. I would like to try other types of rice.

This sake is brewed by Miho Imada, who was selected as one of the "100 Women of the Year" in 2020. I've been wanting to try this sake for a long time because of its high reputation in magazines and without any special glasses. The first sip was soft and clear like water, and then I felt the sharpness. On the second sip, you can taste the umami and acidity. There is also a slight pleasant bitterness at the end. It is characterized by the softness of soft water and a clean mouthfeel with no miscellaneous flavors. And yet, it is a modern dry taste with a wide range of flavors, which I personally like very much and it's really delicious! The aroma and taste are not strong, so it doesn't seem like there is a "this" kind of weapon, but it has no peculiarities and anyone can enjoy it, so I take my hat off to its broad-mindedness. You can drink it all the time... or infinitely. I am also amazed at its wide range of defenses, going very well with greasy dishes like fried foods and crisp salads. To use a baseball player's analogy, it's like Shuta Tonosaki of the Seibu Lions, who can defend any position at a high level.

Japanese>English

The aroma is gorgeous and the taste is slightly fruity, but the aftertaste is clean. We enjoyed it very much.

June 3, 2023 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I took a new employee to my favorite restaurant. The sixth drink was a summer sake from Sakunohana The sixth glass is a summer sake from Sakunohana, Urasakunohana. It is sweet and tasty, but has a refreshing taste with a gaseous and firm acidity. It is sweet and tasty, but has a refreshing taste with a gassy texture and a firm acidity. It was delicious with vinegared mackerel with gari I enjoyed it with pickled mackerel with ginger.

(*´∇*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 It is the first Takihannami. It seems to be the sake which went out to the Iseshima Summit. I feel like a great man by drinking the sake which the important people drink. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

Today, I'm going to raise something I used to drink and kept proper records of. I drank it at a restaurant when I was on a business trip to Osaka and thought it was delicious, so I looked for it myself and bought it. It was labeled as dry, but it had a clean, easy-drinking taste with a slight umami flavor. It goes very well with sashimi. Very tasty! (^O^)

Japanese>English

It is written "Taki Suiryu" and read "Hayase". It is said to have been served at the Ise-Shima Summit 😮. It has a sake meter of +10, but it is not a very spicy sake, but a model of umami-spicy sake. There is a firm spiciness in the aftertaste, but it is accompanied by a mild rice flavor and is not difficult to drink at all. It is very interesting that the way of expression is different between the two. I'm sure you'll agree that sake is very deep❣️.

Mild on the tongue, very slightly chili. Light grain aroma, apricot-like with a sense of maturity? It has a sweet and savory taste. It has a slightly rich and calm taste.... The aftertaste is slightly bitter and acidic. Hmm? The more the day goes by, the more bitter cocoa taste appears.

Souvenirs from a classmate from Akita, Japan, at the end of GW If you are not sure about Akita sake, go for Fukukomachi! I think it's as reliable as the best Akita sake. I don't feel much of the Uetatekoso aroma. The mouthfeel is familiar sweet and tasty, but it has a very different flavor with a crisp acidity. In addition, it has a strong umami flavor, and the taste of umami acidity is something you don't encounter very often. Fukkomachi has a lot of nostalgia! Thank you for the great meal, and thank you to our colleagues!

Slightly sweet but clear. It is easy to drink and clears the throat. I️ drank it with fish.

I was curious about Kanagawa sake 🍶 purchased at the brewery. Is it for export? Stylish bottle. It has a 90% Omachi rice polishing ratio and 40% koji ratio from Okayama Prefecture. Aroma: Mellow Omachi sweet aroma...sweet mouthfeel! It's not so much a food sake as a wine, but rather a wine that can be drunk in small sips. It's like a dolce in wine. Recommended for first time sake drinkers! I can't wait for this encounter with this delicious sake!

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Origuchi Sake Shop when I went to make a reservation for the Risshun morning pressing. Dark sweetness and strong acidity. The acidity is apple-like. It has a strong sweetness and acidity, but it is light and refreshing and easy to drink. It is a little dry and has a cider-like atmosphere with no gasiness.

(*) 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I got my first three stars 😀. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but I'm sure it's a good thing.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we have a little quirky one for you 💁. Mitsurensei 15th Anniversary Special Sake 5 Years Aged Shiga Watabune Rokugou ✨ H29BY=2017BY and from 2022.7 when shipped, it's aged 5 years, but it's now aged 6 years with +1 year in our house😅. I'll try it as an after-dinner drink after dinner 🍶. It's colorless and clear when you pour it into the cup. The aroma is completely old and matured, with hints of dried grapes, brandy, chocolate, and cacao...it's just mellow. The taste is also bitter with bitter chocolate sweetness, followed by alcohol 😋. Six years of aging is no joke 😎.

Japanese>English

I will drop a second one this evening. This is the second of the three stars limited edition extravaganza✨ This time it's the Arcburg strain, reprint yellow yeast. The aroma is not flashy at all, it's a traditional sake with a graininess and beaniness, but the taste is a complete turnaround, with bitterness and sourness from biting the peel of citrus fruits, and it's quite dry with the alcohol running down the nose, perfect for a mealtime sake 😋. The dryness of the reissued yellow malted rice is not a date: ‼️

At home. This is the first time I have had Concept Workers Selection, Aged Sake. When I poured it into a glass, it was slightly colored, and the aroma had a strong liquor feel to it. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel a tingling sensation all over your tongue, and the alcohol that passes through your nose is very strong. I don't know if it's because I've heard it's an aged sake, but for some reason it feels like whiskey in the throat. This is the impression I got right after opening the bottle. I'd like to savor it slowly and carefully. On the second day, the fruity aroma and the mouthfeel became mellow.

Japanese>English

Nice to meet you sake With a refreshing aroma, pleasantly slight effervescence, and a clear throat, this is a sake that fills your mouth and makes you want to sip it in one quick gulp. Accompanied by grilled Spanish mackerel with miso

Japanese>English

This is the second one today at the party! Purchased at the usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten 720ml 📌 ¥1,595 The aroma is fruity, the color is beautiful, and the mouthfeel is again clean and easy to drink 👍I can taste a little bitterness a little later, but I don't dislike it💕. It goes down smoothly and smoothly. It's great 😋 and the pace is very fast 😋. I'm glad my mother-in-law enjoyed it! My daughter in Tokyo joined us online and it's a really fun party 💕. I am so happy💕!

Sour? Rice? Thin smell. Mouthfeel is syrupy, sweet and sour, with a slight bitterness, but the bitterness fades away with the sweetness. Sourness like strawberries? It is like a noble sake. When mixed with Ori, the sweetness is softened and it is like red grapefruit juice. The sweet and sour impact at first is great, but it becomes refreshing at the end. Amazing!

Japanese>English

This is Yonetsuru Super Dry Junmai. This is the second time I've posted this sake. I've been drinking it at room temperature and it's still delicious 😋 The rice flavor and the firm acidity are great. It's a dry sake with a rich taste.

Japanese>English

Yonetsuru Sake Association Next, Junmai, a pure rice made from the raw yeast I was expecting lactic acidity from the sake's yeast yeast, but the acidity was not as strong as I expected, but rather gentle and pleasant. Although it had a slight alcohol taste, it was easy to drink. Thank you very much for your kindness!

As we head into the busy year-end season, it is important to refresh ourselves in the intervals between events, so tonight we had another glass of wine. I opened a bottle of "Kitayuki Junmai Ginjo" from Sado Island, Niigata, which I was told about at an izakaya I often visit! It has a sweet aroma from the moment it is poured, and when you take it into your mouth, the sweet and umami flavors quickly run out, leaving you with a gentle, smooth, and clear image of the after-flavor! Whether it is the water or the brewing method, I am addicted to this clear aftertaste! With only one month left in this year, I'm getting drunk and thinking that it's time to narrow down the bottle of 2022 that I will choose 🍶.

Japanese>English

If I sleep for a day today, it will be Friday... so I opened the bottle in good spirits. The aroma is fruity with no hint of alcohol. It has a softness that is typical of nama-shu. When you take a sip.... Hmm, it's sweet. It has a solid taste that doesn't betray your expectations. It's a taste I like. However, there is an alcohol feeling on the throat. It's not too much to worry about. I'd like to try the other Hokusetsu.

Japanese>English

Kitayuki after a long time. I had the impression that it was refreshing, but this has a juicy flavor that is typical of nama-gara sake and is delicious.
