8 points (wife: 7 points) Alcohol content: 14 degrees Celsius Sake meter: +2 Acidity: 1.2 Sake rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio : 60 Yeast : Nadeshiko flower yeast Where to buy : Japanese Restaurant Kusabanaraku (Nagasaki City) Slightly floral melon-like top The same fruity aroma as the first sip, a moderate sweetness, and the umami of rice spread with a soft acidity and are quickly quenched by a slight bitterness and the dryness of the alcohol. The dryness of the alcohol gives this sake a good sharpness in spite of its aroma, giving it a classical impression in the latter half of the bottle. It is more suitable as a mid-meal drink than as a stand-alone sake. It went well with grilled sea bream, various sashimi, simmered pork, simmered sea bream, fried fish, and other dishes made by my wife's brother.

This is the first time I drink this brand. It's clean with little miscellaneous flavors, and there's something about it that makes me want to try other kinds.

I thought I had to ask for it when Yoohee-san came back home to get it 😅. It was available at a liquor store in Osaka city😳 At the store where I bought Saeki Hisho the other day. This sake is made with Abelia yeast. Fruity and sweet like a flower yeast, but the second half is quite spicy. I'd like to try it if they have fresh sake. I wondered what "Hanegi Shibori" means. I was wondering what "Hanegi Shibori" was, and it turns out that it's the same as the Tenbin Shibori process used by Furozumi, Miyako Bijin, and Shirasagi-no Shiro in the Kansai region 🤔.

At the end of last year, my wife picked out a bottle for me to drink once in a while. I wanted to have something to drink sometimes ✨. A liqueur made with Shizooka mandarins 🍊 You can't feel the alcohol at all! It's just the pulp of the mandarin oranges and the sweetness of the honey. If you don't call it alcohol, you'll think it's a normal juice. If you don't call it alcohol, you'll think it's a normal juice and drink it😊.

720ml ¥1,925 Thanks again for your hard work this week😃. It's been a while since I've been to Ume-chan 😁Kaze-no-mori and Mimuro-sugi are the big two, but they're definitely the best breweries ✨. I found a store that has a good selection as well as Toichi, so I'll be drinking a lot from now on 😄! Very sweet, sour and juicy 😆 Light and easy to drink, very good 😋. I'm going to enjoy this one over the next few days to see how it changes.

The other is Umenoyado. When the bottle is opened, it has a gentle, soft, sweet aroma like anko or Japanese sweets. The mouthfeel is also soft and pleasant. The sweetness, spiciness, acidity, and astringency in the flavor are not all prominent, and the mild sake quality is also reminiscent of Fushimi sake, with its delicious and refined taste! It has a light rice flavor reminiscent of Miyamanishiki, and is a delicious sake that can be served on its own or with food ✨. It's raining unfortunately, but I'm off to explore Nara in the morning for the first time in about 10 years 🦌.

This is a new series from Issen Fudo. It expresses "playfulness" and We use white koji for the preparation. It is characterized by the refreshing sweetness of the rice. The rugged image of single-mindedness and steadfastness. It's subverted in a good way.

First, the top clear 💕 The aroma is fruity and sweet💕💕💕 The mouthfeel is full of acidity💕💕💕 I can also taste the sweetness and umami of the rice💕💕💕 This is so good 😋😋. Next time I'll have it with nigori 💕💕 The aroma is even more fruity💕💕Yogurt? Is it the rose yeast effect 😊? The mouthfeel is even more sour, sweet and umami, this is delicious 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 Today's pairing is chicken salt hot pot😊😊It is a very good sake that does not disturb the meal😊👍 Be careful not to drink too much😅

Long time no post! Took me a while to drink 2 squares 🤣. I bought it at my usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten. I let it sleep in the refrigerator. The price was 1,396 yen (720ml) I'll be back soon! I love the fruity scent💕. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it. It's a good sake that's easy to drink, but you can still taste the sweetness and flavor of the rice. It's a dangerous sake for someone like me who is weak in alcohol. Today's pairing is Daikon and Chicken Teriyaki. It's good as a single item, but it's also recommended as a sake for a meal. Hiyaoroshi is the best👍.

Gorgeous ginjo aroma. It has a clean, light and beautiful sweetness. Although it is jungin, the taste is so beautiful that you would think it is daiginjo. Is it because it is made by hanging it in a bag? It is delicious, but maybe too elegant. It would have been better if it had a little more umami.

It is brewed by a young brewer who used to work at Kuroryu. From this season, the responsible brewing will be separated from the regular products and will be available only to special distributors. For a moment, you may wonder what's going on. But after a short delay, the concentrated, juicy sweetness and umami taste arrives. I think it is rather refreshing. It may be a unique flavor. It is a very drinkable type of wine.

This sake is limited to two liquor stores, one in Sakai and the other in Kishiwada. Only 12 bottles are in stock, so the next time I come back, there won't be any left, so I was allowed to try a special sample before purchasing. It has a rather gorgeous ginjo aroma. It has a low alcohol content and is sweet with a gentle taste. It is low in alcohol, but you can feel the fullness of the flavor. It has no gaseous feeling, but it is fresh. It can be used by itself or with food. Shimada Special is delicious no matter what you drink.

There are only two sake rice study groups left. I've been posting them chippy-chippy, so my notes and my memory are no longer connected. But there is no doubt that they were delicious. The ninth bottle was Kami no Ho from Mie Prefecture. The first bottle was a Saku no Kami no Hoho, which got me hooked on sake rice, but it tasted completely different. The aroma is banana, I guess. It has a slightly sweet taste with a refreshing dryness from the microbubbles. It goes on and on... a never-ending type of sake. The next post should be the last in this study of sake rice.

Special Junmai Nigori Nama-zake🍶Kami-no-ho🌾 from Mie Prefecture. Seme smell, fresh✨, a little schwag. Sour and spicy. Mustardy 🙄 according to my wife. When paired with the koji-marinated squid (🦑), it takes the edge off and cozies up to you. The power of koji is amazing 😆. Looks like a new brand to be born in spring 2023.

☆☆☆☆☆ It has sourness and a little bit of miscellaneous taste or bitterness, then comes the sweetness or umami of nigori. It has a bitter, youthful taste that goes well with spring wild vegetables. The sweetness that comes afterwards is also youthful.

I bought this alcohol as a tie-in to the No.6 x type direct pass 🍶. It wasn't exactly the sake I wanted, so the bar was low, but I was surprised when I tried it: ‼️ It is one of the best tasting sakes I have ever had👍. Fruity aroma typical of daiginjo 🍌. It has a good umami taste, a nice acidity, and no bitterness 😀. I'm glad I found a good sake that I like (^...^)

A taste of the season. The acidity of the sake's yeast yeast yeast is in harmony with the spiciness of the yeast. The spicy richness is alive in the aftertaste.

A crowdfunded return gift! It's Junmai Genshu 17%, once-hi-ire. We had it chilled! It has a thick and sweet taste of Junmai Genshu. I don't feel much acidity, but It's a sake you can drink easily. The wife next to me said it was delicious with a big smile on her face😁.

I have always been curious about this sake. First, let's take a sip. Smells more like candy than fruit. Banana cake, lychee, yogurt, freshly baked pound cake, very ripe peaches. No sign of activity. Concentrated! Concentrated syrup. Tart on the tongue with a good sweetness, ripe fruit like pears, green apples, and some alcohol as when the fruit is quite ripe. Finishes with bitterness, acidity and sweetness and has a long finish. Good and amazing. Power. It's drinkable with a splash. Shake a few times to mix and drink. Rice, milky smell. The rice flavor, sweetness, and sourness of the rice spread out in a flash, and the doburoku, or doburoku, has a fruitiness that surrounds the main rice flavor, and the bitterness comes in and gives it a nice sharpness. The rice is almost completely melted, so it is smooth and refreshing. Delicious! A few days later, after shaking and mixing, it did not separate even after a few hours. The alcohol feeling gradually faded away, and when I drank it, I could feel the strong rice flavor spreading out, sweet and mellow, like a dessert. A delicious drink.

There are several alcoholic beverages that have been neglected for almost a year since I bought them, and this is one of them. Let's open the bottle to see what it tastes like! It's so easy to drink! Doburoku is generally considered to be a rather difficult liquor to drink because of its strong acidity and various other strong habits. But what is this doburoku! It's not so sweet or sour, just enough to give a gentle taste of the ingredients, and it's easy to drink! For those who like that habit, it may be quite insufficient. However, I like it this much better now. Other doburoku seems to take a little more getting used to. The rice mash is not that strong and has a mouthfeel similar to muddy sake. If I am wrong, it may even be easier to drink than the more habitual muddy sake... lol. Combined with the PET bottle container, it felt like Koiwai apple juice. Are my nose and tongue going crazy? I can feel the apple feeling somewhere. The packaging is probably a parody of the classic movie Leon. I found a funny one on Twitter, so I'll post it here.

In a word, sour! From sourness came a slight sweetness. Strength of fermentation.

At Uemo-san. I've been wondering about this sake. I heard that the brewery had already cleaned out this year's stock, so I bought it in a hurry. The sweetness that comes in easily. It has a nice mineral aftertaste.

Taikan Another Story Recently, there has been a lot of talk about Morishima's sake. Is it a basic brand? I was curious and bought it! It seems to be different from the Morishima brand. It's not a modern style. The aroma, the sweetness, the umami, and the slightly peculiar taste in the nose are all good.

Popular local sake from Saitama 🍶It doesn't look like a Japanese sake 🍶! Aroma: Sour and sweet citrus 🍊? No...grape 🍊? The mouthfeel is rich, sweet and delicious with a strong acidity...I can feel the deliciousness of Omachi...it tastes like white wine? Sashimi, I'm having a little bit of Toyama firefly squid, which I hear is a good catch this year, as a side dish.

Sake from my hometown in Saitama (Sai-no-kuni yori katari shiranai reishu) has become a major sake...sweet aroma, gorgeous and fruity...sweet on the palate! Rolling on the tongue, you can feel the umami of rice......and the aftertaste is smooth and clean. This will be very popular! I enjoyed it with chicken sashimi and roasted beef tongue 😊.
