Morimoto Shuzo Koyogi Junmai Ginjo Comet 50. It is a jackpot purchase. It is a delicious sake with a great taste and a great drinking experience 😋.

Japanese>English

Morimoto Morimoto Junmai Sake "Hatsu-no-Takimikiri 2022". This is my first time to drink this brewery. It was a delicious one 🍶🎶 and served chilled. It is a dark, umami, spicy sake, but as the temperature returns to normal, the sweetness and sourness come through. I think it is a good sake at room temperature or warmed. All of Shizuoka Prefecture's sake is delicious.

Japanese>English

I came back to my parents' house today, so I drank a glass of local sake for dinner. It is a refreshing yet umami (flavorful) sake that is very Shizuoka 🍶 Morimoto-san is delicious.

(******) wdwdwdwd. It is a local cup sake patrol. It is a taste of old-fashioned sake. It is the sake of the brewery where Mr. Naohiko Noguchi used to live, not a laboratory!

We drank three bottles at the hotel. The acidity was strong. I like M-310(Daiginjo) which I drank after this.

Junmai Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Sake🍶🍶Tokubetsu A Yamadanishiki🌾 from Yoshikawa, Miki City, Hyogo Prefecture. Mellow and mature 😳. Ester in the mouth. It might be good warmed up 🤔. If you drink it after eating Kanpachi, it will soften the sensation. It's a great match with sour pike conger eel tempura with ume plum paste. Rural House Alori @ Kitaurawa 20230729

A valuable sake that can only be bought for two days a year 牡牡 Dry, crisp, and delicious❗ You can gulp it down, but it's a dangerous drink with an alcohol content of 20 degrees (lol)

Japanese>English

Bicchu tasted a sake from Jindai. Sanko Masamune, when I drank the junmai sake before, seemed quite mellow, but the junmai ginjo was just the right density, probably due to the difference in rice polishing ratio. It is also a very tasty sake.

Japanese>English

I like it though I drank it for the first time including Jindai Junmai Omachi (forgot the picture).

(˶ᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Purchased on a tour of Tohoku (9) I bought this at the brewery of Shiuchu Sake Brewery 😀. The aroma is mild😊the overall feeling is light and committed to the food 😚👍. The fourth one I went to Morioka Hachimangu shrine😊I drew a golden tai-mikuji 🥳I hope to go back next year on my tour of Iwate Prefecture🔥.

Japanese>English

Limited once a year project. Shibori this morning (^^) 100% Gin-Otome from Iwate Prefecture. Gorgeous aroma. Fresh, clean and crisp taste. Goes well with cheese and cured ham.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we will finally enjoy a very tasty "Shiuchu" and another brand "Hiroki" spring sake from the same brewery 🤗. This is the first time I've heard of a brewing method called "sanki amazakamoto". It is said to be a technique to bring out the flavor of the rice. The aroma and taste are gentle and slightly lactic, but there is none of the wildness of the traditional sake, and the sweetness and umami of the rice spreads throughout the mouth, making it easy to drink and delicious 😋😋😋😋😋. This brewery is of a very high level, including Purple Space👍.

Outside drinking. Pale yellow in color. Slightly alcoholic in the mouth. It has a bitter taste with the umami of rice. There is a sourness when drinking. It has a classic flavor and is firm. Sake that has an alcoholic taste but can be drunk neatly 🍶.

Japanese>English

The third drink is Suijin. Asa Kai's masterpiece. No, this is the real thing. Just like the name "Dai-harakuchi" (very dry).

Japanese>English

I've been seeing this sake regularly and was curious about it. When I tried it, I found it to be a dry, robust sake that made me order a side dish!

Immediately after opening the bottle, it was dry and dry, perhaps due to the 17% alcohol content. Then, after leaving it in the refrigerator for about 5 days due to a business trip, the taste changed drastically! There is almost no aroma, but it has turned into a crisp, sweet and delicious sake. There are not many sakes that have changed in taste like this.

Japanese>English

I drank it last year and enjoyed it so much I bought it again. Personally, it is my favorite new sake along with "Akagisan"✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is crisp and gorgeous, like pears. The mouthfeel is light and immediately afterwards there is a solid gassy feeling. It's as shwashy as a carbonated beverage! Dry and clean on the palate, with pear and green apple flavors that are gorgeous and fresh. There is a hint of sweetness, so it is not only dry, but also well balanced. The astringent taste comes in the last half of the bottle and finishes it all off, so it is a delicious wine with a perfect ending! The sun is setting later and later, and we can feel the approach of spring. It's still early, but I'm looking forward to this year's spring sakes!

Purchased at Hankyu Department Store's traveling SAKE. It has a gentle taste with a sweet flavor that comes in the latter half of the bottle. It has a spicy taste, but it also has a fresh fruitiness. I also tasted Omachi, but Yumesasara was definitely my favorite. On the third day, the impression of sweetness and acidity became stronger.

Japanese>English

Tochigi sake featured in Hankyu Department Store's Traveling SAKE. After drinking Kiyokai nigori, it was getting crowded, so I left once and returned when it was empty. We compared Yumesasara and Omachi. I had a preconceived notion that Omachi would be tastier, but I found Omachi to be too strong and subtle. Yumesasara was delicious, so I bought it.

Japanese>English

Today's accompaniment is Nikko Homare Junmai. Is it refreshing, light, light and weakly spicy? The! It's like a sake. It is a good sake for a mid-meal drink, But I think it will be defeated by a little bit sweet I think it is good as a food sake, but it is not as good with sweet food.

@Hotel Emion Tokyo Pei Rice used is So-no-Mai, Chiba Prefecture's original sake rice. It seems to be a lineage with Omachi as its high grandfather. This is also a delicious sake that goes well with Japanese food. It is refreshing, and the sweetness comes on gradually. It is an all-around sake, not limited to Japanese food.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki The aroma is like muscat, with a slight sweetness and a crisp finish. There is no bitterness, but I felt it was a little sharp right after opening the bottle. But as I drank more and more, it became more refined, or rather, the taste was developed. ❗️ It has a good balance and is a versatile sake that can be served with any flavor or situation. ‼️ As expected of a flagship sake, it was delicious. ❣️

Although it's not stated on the label, the rice polishing ratio is 65%, the sake level is -13, and the rice is Hatsushimo. It is very sour. It is very sour, and has a strong personality even among sake made with white koji. This sourness is like Niwa-shu or Bodai-gan. I heard that there was a limited edition of this sake, but I'm curious.

Japanese>English

I drank it hot. I think dry sake tastes best when heated.
