This Sake has a full mouth feel with a strong flavor of cedar and apple. It is also dry with a lingering finish. This is a great with strong flavored foods like kakuni.

Yes, I am, I bought some fish paste in Kaminoseki in the neighboring prefecture of Yamaguchi, Then, I bought sake and sake from the same Yamaguchi Prefecture, although they are from different regions, We went to a supermarket to buy sake, When I saw the label of new sake, I bought it immediately. It is my favorite sake because it has a weak spiciness and the umami and flavor of the rice are very assertive, as is typical of new sake. I want to stock up on it, Today's beer, Suntory's Premol with a seductive aroma. I thought it had a strong aroma. I thought it might have a strong aroma, but it didn't. It was easy to drink with weak bitterness and weak aroma, It was easy to drink with weak bitterness and weak aroma, and although it was a little lackluster, it was a delicious beer.

We recently visited MURASHIGE SHUZO in Iwakuni City. This is Uraginkan Kuromatsu, a limited edition sake from that brewery. When poured into a glass, the color was more golden than yellow, and the aroma was rich with a hint of caramel 😀 It was a matured sake. It was a matured sake, like a so-called "matured sake" 😀. It's not likely that we would ever choose such a sake at home, but this time we took it home because it was a limited edition from the brewery 😀. It tasted rich, thick and sweet 🤣. I compared the taste of the cold sake and the room temperature sake, and while the cold sake tasted a bit angular, the room temperature sake tasted rounder and tastier with a touch of rice 😀.

Sake brewery next to Shinkansen Shin-Iwakuni Station When poured into a glass, the aroma is subdued. The aroma is slightly sweet and slightly powdery. When you drink from the top clear liquid, you will taste a strong acidity. The sweetness is moderate. When the nigori is mixed in, it has a slightly creamy texture and sweetness. The acidity is the main flavor throughout.

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.

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

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.

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 🙂.

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.

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

[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.

A local sake from Futtsu, Chiba... A faint fruity aroma... A sweet bitterness with a strong bitterness typical of local sake! The flavor of the rice soaks in... The bitterness is followed by a sharpness! It's a good sake to drink while eating.... It's similar to Kotobuki Mangame from Chiba. It's a drink to be enjoyed in small quantities. Delicious.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Chiba Prefecture Antenna Shop, which was open for a limited time at Hankyu Umeda Station. I had drunk Seisen from the same brewery in the past and was not fond of hiyaoroshi, but I was impressed with it. The first aroma was already gorgeous. It is sweet and a little tangy on the palate. The second half is a little spicy. It was more delicious than I had imagined. Overall, I'd say it's fruity and dry.

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.

Japanese>English

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.

Japanese>English

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.

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 ☺️.
