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🤣.

Sweet 👊 Really Sake ⁉️ Sake that is not like sake in a good way😊.

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 😛.

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

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 🙂.

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 😋.

Japanese>English

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...

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.

Japanese>English

Mild sweetness. Banana and ripe apples. Moderately refreshing on the back palate.8

Japanese>English

＋I was curious to buy it because I like dry junmai over +5. Today is Mother's Day, so we had hand-rolled sushi. I don't like the feeling of a crisp, clean, albeit a bit dry, Junmai for Sashimi. I don't like the feeling of "I'm not a fan of that", so I went for the Dai-Sara Junmai right away! The first sip gives a mild umami flavor typical of junmai, but as it goes down the throat, it finishes clean and crisp. ＋If it goes up to +15, it seems too spicy, but this one seems to be +12. I think it is just right. It went well with scallops, which are light and tasty among today's ingredients.

At Izakaya It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and is fruity. It has a nice lingering finish with just the right amount of umami and acidity. Rice: Hitomebore produced in Gunma Prefecture

The rice polishing ratio is 35% following the previous 50%. This sake is brewed with Gohyakumangoku from the brewer's hometown. It is sweet and sour, with a slight bitterness. My favorite type. It's good, I want to drink it again.

Japanese>English

Slightly carbonated with a sweet taste. This is good. Best on such a hot day! (Mountain Climb + 10 km Chojabaru Run) A refreshing sparkling Daiginjo. One I bought when I went to Ikaho. My father-in-law and mother-in-law were not able to make it due to health problems. **....

The bottle looks like champagne. When the clasp and cork are removed. "I heard a fizzing sound. I was afraid that it would overflow, but But I was able to pour it normally. But I was able to pour it. The sweetness is clear. It is a true champagne of rice. The alcohol content is also light at 12 degrees, making it easy to drink. It is stored in cherry barrels and undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle. It is said that it is finished as sparkling.

Japanese>English

It's my first time drinking Shichiken raw😄. Sweet aroma like a cake. Almost no bubbles. The sweetness is moderate and the taste is cleaner than expected. The aftertaste is pleasantly spicy and bitter with a long finish. The finish is long and refreshing 🍎 like apples. Sashimi is a good match, but salt is a better match than soy sauce😋. This bottle is also only about 1,200 yen, so I guess Shichiken's cost is great👍👍.

Japanese>English

Sparkling Japanese Sake. It was made with a lot of time and effort by laying it down in the whiskey barrels of Suntory Hakushu Distillery. I didn't have a chance to open the bottle after I bought it, but finally I did. It has a sharp throat. It's a great way to start the day. It's not as bad as the sparkling wine ☺️.

Kinmon Nishiki and Hime no Mochi. Local lactic acid bacteria used. The richness of sourness and umami is mellow. It has a rather medium taste.

Japanese>English

Not just be careful opening the bottle, but laugh! You really should be careful. The gasiness is quite strong, and as you drink it, the settled oriole gradually dissolves, making it a summery bottle that you can drink all the way through without getting bored. Be more careful when opening the bottle than when opening sparkling wine!

I bought this Suzune for my wife who wanted to drink it 😛 lol The gasiness is still the same, but the rice flavor and acidity are there, but the impression is a little lighter than Suzune. I think I like this one better because it's more refreshing✨.

Japanese>English

146th bottle. Sweet, slightly effervescent, easy-drinking sake.

Japanese>English

On a hot Sunday, I bought this at the specialties corner of the Shinkansen station. The petit puchi-puchi, just like the brand name, washed away the heat. The fineness of the secondary fermentation in the bottle is pleasant. The low alcohol content is also good for a refreshing sip (gulp, gulp). There is also some oli, which makes it "like champagne, but it's a great sake. This is unconventional sake brewing.

Smells like pear with a hint of alcohol. Sweet! The sweetness reminds me of sugar. When swallowing, there is a fluffy flavor reminiscent of rice, and there is also a taste of fruit juice, but the sweetness stands out. There is a carbonation feeling. I want to drink it again tomorrow. It is sweet. The second day. Slightly carbonated. The second day is easier to drink.

Japanese>English

(* '☆')☆🍶🍶🍶🍶 We had our first Kawanakajima today 😀. The aroma is a little bit of rice flavor 😊The taste in the mouth is light and a little bit dry 😚The mild umami spreads slowly and then it cuts through quickly 🥰. It's a sake that seems to go well with all kinds of meals 🥳.

Japanese>English

( *^艸^)🍶🍶🍶🍶 It's been so long since I've had Kawanakajima Genmai that I don't know how many years it's been since I've had it 😋. The aroma is gentle yet elegant 😊The palate has a gentle rice flavor with a very clean and crisp finish 😚👍. It's really easy to drink and a delicious sake that goes well with food 🥳✨.
