The color is a yellowish gold, reminiscent of champagne. When shaken, it smells citrusy, sweet and clear, and the expectations are high. Carbonation, apricot, citrus, sourness from the clean drinking experience, taste is not thin and has moments of woodiness and is very tasty. It has a slightly heavy sourness, richness, and astringency reminiscent of low-polished rice, but it is not dull or difficult to drink, and it has a slight heaviness that makes it enjoyable. If you want to try the powerfulness of low-polished rice but also want to drink a beautiful sake, this sake will satisfy both of your needs.

The slightly sour smell has a fresh soda-like aroma. The slight sourness of cherries from the slight fizz, the woody aroma, and the delicious taste of rice as it fades away. It's delicious. No bitterness. The description says plum, jasmine and honey. The smell is of Japanese cypress. I think it gets drunk faster than other sakes.

At home. Shinsei has come to our house too❗️. The aroma is not that great, the taste starts with a tingling sensation on the tip of the tongue, and when you put it in your mouth, it has a strong sourness with a hint of sweetness. It was very light and easy to drink. It's a gem that you can drink forever and it's hard to judge when it's over.

Refreshing, sweet and delicious😋. Mio has a huge market share in the sparkling category😃. It would be great if women who are not familiar with sake could be awakened to the taste of sake and start drinking it every night 😛.

Aizan sake, still stocked but a little interrupted for refrigerator reasons😅. Shochiku Ume, but brewed in Nada, not Fushimi. There's a big building that looks like a factory near Sunshine Wharf. The bottle and cap have a unique design. The aroma on the nose is quite gorgeous, with a slight nuance of peppermint. In the mouth, it has a gorgeous sweetness and a bitter spiciness. It is refreshing but has a strong personality, probably because it is an unfiltered sake.

If you drink only unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake during the winter, it can be heavy at times, so in the spring, drinking a light sake like this is good for the stomach 🙂.

This is a summer sake limited to exclusive dealers. It is made from Hiroshima Hatan Nishiki at 55% polishing ratio. It has a refreshing sweetness and It has a refreshing sweetness and a firm taste of rice. If you cool it down, it becomes more refreshing. It is the first time to drink this brand. It is a perfect taste for summer.

It has a banana-type aroma. The sweetness is strong, followed by a slight bitterness and disappears. There is a slight sweet aftertaste. The acidity is not so strong, so it can be an aperitif or an aperitif. I would pair it with an after-dinner dessert.

[Memorandum]. The third sake is from Hiroshima. Ichidai Yayama. It has a yellowish color and the smell is also bothersome. I can't drink a lot of this.

2021/09/11 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Opened the bottle carefully with a little bit of crown. As soon as you open it, you can smell the fresh aroma of lactic acid. A gentle refreshing sweetness and then a dry feeling comes. It is a type of beer that can be drunk crisply until the end. Thanks to the low alcohol and strong carbonation It's so refreshing that I couldn't stop sipping it.

Toyokuni for a very long time. I didn't write it down, but they said it was bag-hung. It has a juicy flavor with a gentle sweetness that is very drinkable. This time I bought it at a tasting sale at a department store, but there are not many liquor stores in Kansai that carry it... Nakamura Sake-ten in Amagasaki or Youmeikan in Yokozutsumi? It tastes sweeter when it is taken out of the refrigerator and brought to room temperature.

Various summer liquors are now available. This time it was Fengkoku's summer sake. It was sunny this afternoon and the weather recovered, so I opened a bottle that had been well chilled in the refrigerator. It is a light nigori (light cloudy) sake. The label is white and empty on the surface, but when you shine a light on it from behind, a starry sky appears on the label. When the lees are mixed in, it looks foggy, and when the lees settle, it looks like a star-filled sky (Milky Way). At first it is too cold to smell much. The mouthfeel is light, and although it feels spicy on the throat, it has a light sweetness, followed by a grefle-like bitterness and a leesiness that is also combined with the flavor. The bitterness is pleasant and crisp, making it a delicious summer sake. Although it is a Fukushima sake, it is not too amateurish and can be drunk without hesitation.

At home. First time in Saitama. I couldn't find Saitama easily, so I searched by the name of the prefecture and finally found it. The aroma is grainy and nutty. The mouthfeel is smooth and fresh, and it has a sweet taste of grain. The sourness and bitterness were not so strong. From the label, I thought it would be heavy, but it was easy to drink.

A summer-only light nigori (nigori is a light, unadulterated sake). The alcohol content is light at 9 degrees. It has a refreshing sweetness and acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits. The bottle and labeling are stylish. You can enjoy sake in a fashionable way.

Beau Michelle's light nigori 😍✨ discovered by accident in Osaka. I didn't think I'd be able to drink this this year❗️I bought it right away❗️ I'll be back in a few days! It's almost overflowing with the sizzle 😮️❗️ It's fruity like a fruit wine on the palate⁉️Is this really sake? It's 9% and 500ml, so naturally I finished it in one night🤣.

飲みやすい
Sei Masamune Omatsuri carp Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Shu ORIGARUMI 720ml Rice: 90% Hitogokochi (from Nakano City, Nagano Prefecture), 10% Morimorimochi (from Obuse Town, Nagano Prefecture) Rice polishing ratio: 59 Alcohol content: 14%. Sake as exciting as a festival or something 😀. Indeed, I'm looking forward to the fact that every time I drink sake here these days, I have to try it to see the various flavors 😋. Open the bottle with a light shupo. Pour it into a bowl. The acidity of the lactic acid and the chirichiri-ness of the garnish make it feel like a summer sake, right? Calpis soda for adults, not sweet. Let's have a little more on the rocks when you get home! 🔸P.S., Day 2 It didn't have as much schwarziness as the calpis soda (...;) It was a taste change to a delicious drink that you can take your time with... Ἰ.

[Fukui Spring New Sake Festival (6) Next, visitors can enjoy a glass of sake from their own local brewery. Hanashoku Junmai Daiginjo Betsuatsurae The aroma is like grapes with a hint of sourness, the mouthfeel is clean and sweet with a pleasant aftertaste, and there is a lingering bitterness in the back of the throat. I bought some salted sea urchin, which is a perfect match for sake, but is usually hard to find. The taste was so agonizing that it made me want to drink more sake. I think if I recommend [salted sea urchin] to people outside of the prefecture, they will be puzzled how to eat it 🤔.

This month we had a lot of drinking outside, so it's been a while since I've had a drink at home! I got a bottle of summer sake "Kashoku", which is rarely seen even in my hometown, because there was some left at the liquor store! The mouthfeel is sweet with a refreshing acidity, and the mellow aroma lingers until the end. It seems that more emphasis is placed on the mellow aroma than on the refreshing taste! Although it is a summer sake, it is a perfect bottle for long nights in autumn. I felt it has the potential to be as good as many dishes in the autumn season of taste.

I was worried about the sake I chose at a supermarket in Sabae, and was surprised to find that it tasted a little different when mixed with ice. I drank it at room temperature with ice, and was surprised at how it tasted differently when mixed with the temperature and melted ice! Delicious 😚! Personally, I like it better when it is chilled to a crisp!

It is a nigorizake made from Junmai Junmai Nakakumi. It is quite dry and has a strong bitterness, but as the temperature rises, you can taste the umami sweetness. It is a delicious sake 😋.

This Sake starts very bold with strong and bright flavors of tart apples and butterscotch. There is enough acidity to give this a short dry finish. Wow, the explosion of flavor woke me up. 😳
When I went to Takimoto, I suddenly felt like drinking a small bottle of nigori. It was the first time I bought Tsukitsukatsura since they changed the label to a fashionable one. Strong taste. Shuwa shuwa. I almost gushed out. The alcohol content is high, so the strong alcohol taste comes with a bang. The delicious taste of rice surges in. The sweetness is only slightly perceptible in the latter half of the bottle. Personally, I don't think it goes well with Tsuki no Katsura...
