It tastes like a ginjo sake. It's not fruity, but it tastes like water.

Rice used is something from Kyushu It was sent together with eel as a hometown tax return gift from Isahaya City❗️. It is a clear and dry sake with good sharpness ‼️. The sweetness is just a hint and goes well with eel. I was curious about the sake brewery that has the same name as Okinawa "Reimei", but I see they are related. It is interesting to see how many things are connected in this industry.

I got this on a trip to Nagasaki last year. I will have it while thinking back to the delicious Turkish rice and Sara Udon noodles 🤤. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is sweet and fluffy, like pudding or custard. The aroma is gentle and soothing. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky, but as the aroma suggests, it has a pudding-like flavor and a moist sweetness that fills the mouth 🍮. On the other hand, it also has a slightly tangy and pungent acidity that gives it a lightness, so it has a good balance of depth of flavor and a sharpness that goes down your throat👍. In the latter half of the bottle, the astringent taste also comes out, so the flavor can be felt as caramelized. There are also the standard "Yokoyama Goju" and "Rokujyosu", and I remember that I had a lot of trouble finding a variety at the Nagasaki airport. I also drank Nagasaki sake several times, and it seems to me that the level of sake is as high as that of shochu 😌.

The label is unexpectedly attached on two sheets. The second one that I turned over, The second label is a nice beckoning cat with both hands raised in the air. The taste is mellow and autumnal, The taste is mellow like an autumn sake with a fresh sweetness like a pear. It is easy to match with meals.

It is a light and refreshing sake! It's a great match for a midday drink!

This was the first time I drank Abe-kan at home. The one I drank in the past was a special sake with a special kijoshu spec, so I don't think it was any different from the first time I drank it. It is dry with a strong gassy and acidic taste. It is not that sweet, but it is easy to drink because of the sourness. I don't think I've ever seen Abe-kan sold anywhere but Edion Namba.

Then the middle one, "Senryo Otokoyama. Honey-like aroma. The mouthfeel is silky, but the flavor is similar to a juku-shu type. It has a honey and syrupy feel with a touch of pettiness. However, it is easy to drink, with no harshness or bitterness, perhaps because the overall assertiveness is modest! It is crisp but dense. It is a deep taste that is hard to describe!

GW 4 days 3 nights with wife, 1,500km round trip🤣 We went on a Sanriku car trip 🙂. We stayed one night near Sendai and went to Sanriku. We had an ume (sea urchin) lunch box at Kuji station, and spent the second night in Miyako. Miyako's sake brewery, Hishiya Sake Brewery, Senryo Otokoyama. Seafood Cuisine at Murekou, a long-established bar that has been in business for over 45 years. Today we had fresh and delicious seafood dinner at Today, the restaurant was run by a pleasant elderly couple, who were basically just a customer with a reservation, but they were happy to help us at the counter.

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👍.

It's my first time to drink Hakuin Masamune. It's a sake I've never had the chance to drink before. I've been drinking a lot of sweet and sour sake lately, so I thought I'd try some dry sake. Danrei Dry. It has a moderate aroma and is dry enough to drink with a meal.

(沒沒沒) ❣🍶🍶🍶🍶 I had my first Izumibashi today 😀. I can hardly smell the aroma 🤔I can taste the robust umami and slight sweetness on the palate 😚It's so refreshing and easy to drink 😊. It also seems to be recommended to be heated on the back, so I'm going to give it a try even though it's hot ✨. The aroma has opened up with umami aroma 😄It becomes smooth and delicious on the palate and the aftertaste is clean and disappears quickly 😋. Both were delicious 🥳.

This new brew has a pleasant lightness and freshness. It had a slight sweetness and a fruitiness to it. It also has a complex taste, I guess you could say it's full-bodied. I can't help but drink it! A rustic snowman is also very cute É It looks cloudy, but it's not nigorizake. Rakufumai is a brand of rice. It seems to be a light sake. Day 3, the sweetness and acidity is a little stronger now! Day 4, more flavor! Yummy.

Sometimes I drink out! I forgot to take a picture of the back label. The rice is called Akebono. It has been a long time since I have had it. Overall, it's clean, with a soft flavor. It smelled great, and it was a delicious drink! You can buy a quadruple bottle for less than 1,000 yen, so the cost is good ✨

The second glass was Hiwada, a pure rice with a fresh herbal base, Autumn up. Hiwada is a brand new to me. It is a bit more umami than Onumaya, with a rich flavor. But it has a dry, swishy feel. (Laughs) Goes well with sashimi. Oh, man, I can drink it so easily. Hey, Miyagi sake is delicious! Our business partner was also excited. (Laughs) It was very delicious! (^O^)

Aizu Shuzo's Aizu Ginjo Nama Shu Arabashiri. The initial aroma is just a hint of sweetness, but once you take a sip, a soft sweetness and bitterness spreads. It has a clear, fresh, powerful flavor, and is crisp and clean. Although it is a ginjo-shu with alcohol, it is smooth and easy to drink, and the alcohol content is a little light at 15 degrees, so it is easy to enjoy and delicious. 😋♪

I've found the best summer sake in the cosmopolitan world. It's low in alcohol, so it's easy to drink, melon top, good aftertaste, perfect freshness, and no miscellaneous taste. It is truly a summer sake.
