There was one that caught my eye, so I had a glass. It was a good, refreshing sake, which I didn't think was a honjozo. Delicious.

Japanese>English

Ibigawa! We received this from kino.✨ Thank you kino. for everything 🙇‍♂️ First of all, cold sake! Sweet and delicious! Alcoholic taste like Honjozo! Then hot sake The alcoholic taste is mellowed. And the sweetness and umami are amplified. It's so good! ❣️ With yellowtail sashimi from Harunobu in Niigata! It went really well together 😋.

This is the 38th sake brewery in Gifu Prefecture. This is one of the main brands of the Sugihara Sake Brewery in Ono-cho, Ibi-gun, which is famous for being the smallest sake brewery in Japan. It is sold at Tomikuya, the brewery's direct sales store, along with sakekasu (sake lees). It is also sold at a nearby roadside station in Ono-cho. The aroma is strawberry-like. It is filtered, but not excessively, so there is some lees floating on the surface. The palate has a weak acidity and the sweetness of the rice comes out well. It is a delicious sake with a long lingering aftertaste. Sugihara Shuzo is famous for its sake, but the brewery does not sell it, and there are only two stores in Gifu Prefecture that carry it, both by lottery, so getting it is a matter of luck. I would like to try it sometime.

Memorandum. This is another favorite local drink. Summer, After having accomplished a lot of big challenges in June for me. I wanted to take a breather and reset. A crisp, dry, unpasteurized sake. It works well. I should be able to get eggplant. It was such a good sake for the evening. Sasanishiki from Ichihasama. Suki. I prefer the green hode nasu in winter, though.

Japanese>English

It is a local sake, but I first heard about it through "Sake-no-wa" and bought it at a sake store in the northern part of the prefecture. My daughter bought it at Fujiwaraya in Sendai Station a couple of times before she got married. Strangely enough, I could not remember any other person's sake. 　It has a fruity aroma and taste like peaches, with a nice sharp aftertaste. (Mrs. Fujinami's impression) 　It was too rich for me and I did not understand it well. It became easier to drink when I tried it on the rocks.

Japanese>English

Summer version of hode nasu 🍆. First time I've ever purchased summer ✨. It's completely different from the winter version, crispy 😳 almost no acidity! I prepared a steak with the winter flavor, but I ate it with yesterday's leftover mansaku and ate the hode nasu with edamame and cucumbers 😅. Hode nasu in summer is more like sushi or pickles than meat 🤔.

This Sake has a full mouth feel and some sweetness at the beginning. The flavor of this Sake is bigger than other Seitoku Sake but it still has good balance. Very good with big flavor foods like mapo tofu.

This Sake has an initial sweetness and a full mouth feel. There is a hint of cedar as the alcohol clears my pallet. Very good with big flavor foods like yakiniku. Seitoku has many Sake that I enjoy.

This Sake is light, refreshing and easy to drink. I am revisiting this Sake because it has been a while since I last drank it. I enjoy the mild flavors of apple and melon with a clean, short aftertaste. This is a refreshing and well balanced Sake.

A bottle placed in front of me The other is this one, Shizenkogo's Sawayaka! I didn't know there was such a brand! I looked it up on Sake-no-wa, and it was my first time to try it! I was curious to see what kind of sake it was, since it was a honjozo, but it was a beautiful dry sake that didn't feel like it had been alkaloated! I think it's a good sake to be heated up! Dishes lined up on the table one after another! I don't think our generation would be able to finish all the food at this pace! But it was a fun night of drinking and eating at our own pace! extensive knowledge Alcohol content: +15 Sake degree: +15 Acidity: undisclosed Rice used for making sake：Rice suitable for sake brewing Rice Polishing Ratio : Koji 60%, Kake 70% Condition : Fired

Slight peach sweet aroma 🍑. In the mouth, the lush mouthfeel with a hint of fruitiness spreads in the mouth, and the alcohol and rice flavor comes without unpleasantness: ☺️✨ Too outstanding for everyday use! 💦 And here comes this most powerful cosy ❤️😭😭

Shuoyoshi Sparkling La Chante Oh, this is... This is... delicious! Huh? (look at the label) No added sugar! NO sugar! Why is it so sweet! (see website) Is it the sweetness of glucose~ (∩ º Å º) Whew! Delicious~(*´˘ `*)♡♡♡♡ (see website) I recommend chocolate for pairing🍫. Yes, yes, there is chocolate ())))) rummage) Yummmmeeeee ( ᐙ )🍷🍫🍫 ⬇Homepage excerpt⬇ La Chante is a sparkling sake, Made with only "100% Akita-Komachi" and "water from the Ou Mountains and water from the Ou Mountains. The gentle sweetness comes from the natural glucose produced from rice. The fruity aroma and sourness reminiscent of fruit juice are key points. The burst of carbonation is refreshing, just like champagne. You may wonder, "How can rice alone taste like this?" You may wonder... This is a "new sensation" sake. Let's taste the new sensation together. Once you try it, you will be addicted to the taste. Rice used: 100% Akita-Komachi Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 7 to 8 degrees Content: 280ml

Japanese>English

I saw a lot of Shuyoshi's La Chante at a souvenir shop in Akita. It was stored at room temperature in the sun, so I bought the one from the liquor store's refrigerator. I don't know whether it was made for sake lovers or wine lovers, but it was interesting. The Akita Sour was expensive, but it was okay. The miso macaroon from Kakunodate was delicious!

At home. The second item of the sake tasting party. Wakayama Rashomon. I had the impression that it was a famous sake with a harsh name and a long history, so I thought it would have a strong alcoholic taste, but no matter what, it's very easy to drink. It doesn't have a gorgeous aroma like Raifuku, but you can feel the sweetness of the rice strongly in your mouth, and it has a clear and light taste, so you can go as much as you want.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Shinsaibashi Takashimaya Department Store on the recommendation of a store clerk. Rice used is unknown. The richness of the original sake can be felt. It does not have much of a nama-zake character, and is clear and clean through the throat, making it a sake that you will never get tired of drinking. Because of its name, I had always assumed it was a sake from Kyoto. I️ was surprised to learn that it was the first Japanese sake to win the Monde Selection gold medal, and that Wakayama is proud of this world-class sake. My sincere apologies 🙏.

@Osawa of Sake Rice used is unknown Not fruity at all. It is not light and dry, and has aged well. The taste is a mellow type with a strong umami. The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing for a Daiginjo. It is what is called "the sake of sake.

Japanese>English

I stopped by Hashimoto Sake Brewery on my way to Yamanaka Onsen last year. The store is a bit like a museum, and you can learn a lot from the easy-to-understand explanations about the rice polishing ratio and the process of making sake. I was not able to taste the sake because I was the handle keeper, but the president recommended a lot of sake and my family was getting drunk (sweat). I drank it cold, but it was still dry. When I heated it up, it became soft, mellow, and easy to drink. The color is quite amber, so the polish may be shallow. Personally, I think drinking it at room temperature or hot is the right way to go. I like to drink sweet sake cold, but I'm starting to think it would be nice to drink dry sake hot ( ˘ω˘ ).

It was delicious!

(🍶🍶🍶🍶´-+ Today's purchase in Akita is a cup of Hiduyoshi 😀. I had it at room temperature and it tastes a bit sweet, solid yet gentle and easy to drink 💕It's the kind of sake that's perfect for an evening drink 😚.

Japanese>English

Hiduyoshi received as a souvenir from a New Year's party I have an image that Hideshiyoshi tastes better a few days after opening the bottle, and this one is no exception! It tasted hard and so-so right after opening the bottle, but after 3-4 days, the impression changed completely. From the flat taste of the past, a clear acidity has opened up along with a savoriness that comes in a jolt, and the dry base has been covered by the savoriness and acidity. The flavor is now fuller and more vibrant, and it's ah~ delicious! Yes, this is it! This is what I mean! Thank you very much for the sake!

I saw it at Takasaki station and bought it. I was expecting to be disappointed, but I was pleasantly surprised. I should have bought it at a dozen places. I should have bought it at the dozen.

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've had a normal Akagisan! I love the refreshing taste of summer, but the crisp and dry taste during the cold winter months is also very refreshing and special ✨. The clear and beautiful mouthfeel is also reminiscent of the snowy winter landscape! It's also a great choice for warming up during this time of the year. But in my opinion, Akagisan is best drunk cold 😋.

Japanese>English

It is no longer a must-have. I've been saving it for a while since I bought it, but I opened it just as it was getting a little warmer! (I'll spare you my impressions.) It has a light, refreshing, umami dry taste and a clean, crisp throat, making it a great choice for the coming season 😌. In my opinion, it is a 🍺 substitute...!

I am amazed that rice can give this flavor 😳. It is aged in wine barrels, so you can taste the peculiar flavor of red wine 🍷. The taste is very intense and the sake level is -23 degrees, but thanks to the strong acidity, it is not sweet like a juice, but has a sharp taste 😊. It would go well with a dark meal 🍖🍛. It was delicious. It costs 3,000 yen for 500ml, but I would recommend this new type of sake 💸.

Japanese>English

I drank WAKAZE for the first time. It is a white wine with strong acidity and a little sweetness.... It is a little bit different from so-called sake in the category of "other brewed sake" (because it contains herbs? (Is it because it contains herbs as ingredients?) I think it is better to enjoy it as an occasional stimulant. ("THE BOTANIC"...you mean "botanical", right?)

Japanese>English

I knew I bought the normal one at Lawson's too😆. If you look closely, you can see the r in Summer is capitalized. Yopa Memo_φ(____) Spicy cider Good sharpness Seems to go well with oily food I think it's possible to have it when it gets cold, like ice cream with a kotatsu (a table over a kotatsu), and then have it at a nabe (hot pot). But then again, this amount might not be enough... It was delicious 😋😋😋.
