Purchased at the Takashimaya Sake Festival. So-called "craft saké" sake. The only ingredient is rice malt. It is sweet and sour with white malted rice. It is sweet and sour, but it has a fruity taste and I like it better than other sakes made with white malted rice.

LAGOON BREWERY's Shozora Mori no SAKE - Kuromoji Doburoku. It is said to be mixed with a herb called kuromoji, and it certainly smells not like doburoku. Is it the aroma? It may be the smell of aroma? It is a sake with a new sensation.

Tonight, we are opening our second bottle 💪. Shozora Drunken Melon 2023BY🍈🍈🍈🍈🍈. LAGOON, which has been making a name for itself in craft saké Brewery, who has been making a name for themselves in craft saké, is finally opening their first bottle at our house✨. Let's start with the top clear. The aroma is of melon🍈, but there is a sweet smell of baked goods 🍪 on the palate as well. It's like drinking pudding caramel or bitter chocolate liqueur 🍫. When the lees of doburoku is mixed well, the texture of mashed rice and creaminess is added and the sweet liqueur mentioned earlier is a little gentler but well, sweet. It's a dessert sake, but it looks delicious with soda or something 🙌

At Kaki-numa. I'm not sure how many times I've heard of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea. Lucky👍 I bought a bottle of autumn wine 😋 for good measure. Just the right amount of age! The flavor of the food tickles my autumnal appetite 😅 It's the season for good drinks and snacks 😁

Lid is stiff. Thin lactic acidity, slightly sweet fruit-like smell. Lemon and plum-like acidity emerges from the thin rice mouthfeel, finishing with rice-like flavor acidity and a hint of sweetness. Delicious. It is refreshing and easy to drink. The lower the temperature, the more refreshing it is.

('ㅂ'* )🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we got a limited edition of Uozu Sake Brewery, which is now under the Sake Capital umbrella? I got a bottle of UO from Uozu Sake Brewery, which is now under the umbrella of Sake Capital 😀. It seems to be a sake developed to go well with fish from Toyama Bay ✨. The aroma is mild 😄and the palate is smooth, fresh, and light 🤔, and it finishes with a refreshing acidity 😚I couldn't really tell the difference between it and the Hohanami 🤣 but it was a delicious sake 🥳.

My impression is that this sake has a fresh, blue feeling among the Takezumi brands. It also has a grassy feel. It has a powerful wildness. It conveys a strength that seems to be unaffected even if it is laid down to rest.

Is this Takezumi's first low-alcohol original sake? It seems to be. The aroma is a bit aged, but there is a sourness and a light gassy feeling. It is claimed to be dry, but the low alcohol content and the aforementioned characteristics make it easy to drink. It also has a fruity taste in the mouth for a moment.

It was hard to ask them to let me take a picture because they looked so busy, so no picture. The aroma is classic Japanese sake. When you drink it, it is quite refreshing and slightly sweet. The color is dark and I wonder if it has aged a bit. I was allowed to take a picture of it as the restaurant was getting settled, so I switched it out.

The local sky is about to cry 😭I entrusted the Milky Way to Yoru no Teio 😊. When you pour it into your cup, it's amber like a mass of flavor 💛When you drink it, it's still a great flavor 😚👍The aftertaste is very sharp, and it makes your drink go down 😘. Wish on a strip of paper 🌟🙏🙏. I wish for good health and lots of delicious sake💕. I hope so 🥳.

The fifth glass was to your first Imperial 👑. The aroma is light and fruity, like peaches. The palate is smooth, with a well-balanced taste of sweet, spicy, acidic and astringent. The taste is balanced between sweet, spicy, acidic, and astringent. The clean quality of the sake allows it to be enjoyed quickly and without habit!

We opened a bottle of Daikoku that we bought today at Kado-ya Sake Shop. It is said that this sake is brewed with 100% Yamada Nishiki harvested in a special area of Hyogo Prefecture. It's rich and dry. The rich taste in the mouth and the long lingering spiciness are exquisite. I think it's a very cost effective sake.

This was the first time I drank Daikoku Masamune at home. I bought it at the direct sales counter of the brewery. The aroma is mild, but the taste is fresh and fruity. It was really good even when it was heated. The reinforced concrete brewery was demolished due to old age, and a prefabricated direct sales store was built on the site, with the rest of the land used for a convenience store and Marugame Seimen noodles. The rest of the land is used for convenience stores, Marugame Seimen noodles, etc. Now they are brewing in a rented part of Hakutsuru Brewery. At the time of the Great Hanshin Earthquake, the wooden warehouse collapsed, and the site of the warehouse was turned into an apartment building, which was named Daikoku Royal Heights.

Daikoku Masamune Junmai Ginjo Hyogo Yume Nishiki I like this sake very much😍. Calm and soft umami on the palate 😌. Gentle spiciness with a clean finish 😊. Overall, it's very cohesive and delicious 😋️‼️. The Sengoku I drank with it made me feel like a bit of a yankee 😆. Sweet and juicy is good, but I guess I prefer light and dry 🥰🥰. The last one I drank was also good, but This Daikoku Masamune was excellent👍🤣‼️.

Very refreshing! First taste is muscat with a hint of cucumber towards the finish. There is a slight dryness at the finish which is nice. A light mouth feel and a short finish. The name of this Sake is true to the flower.
It's a lovely label 🦋The first of the 2025 guitars has arrived and I'll give it to you right away 🎉. It's my first time to this brewery, but I surely know their "Mugi Shochu Iichiko" ‼️ It's 14 degrees, but it's softly sweet with a unique alcohol taste! There is a slight spicy bitterness, but it has the strength to blow away the low-alcohol feeling 💖. When paired with a meal, the unique alcohol, spiciness, and bitterness of the Kona mysteriously blow away, and it becomes a round, round, round sake. It's a wonder. Am I just drunk? Today's dishes are pork shabu-shabu, simmered pumpkin & kakuni & mushrooms, and chilled tofu with baby sardines. ❤️ Yesterday was the last race of the season in which my husband participates as a hobby 🏁 We enjoyed it slowly while reflecting on this year together 👍. For impressions of the sake alone, shinsaku3 is in charge 💕.

Sake received at the Sake World Summit. This sake is brewed with Ginbukiyo sake produced in Shiga Prefecture. The acidity and umami of the sake are well intertwined with each other. It was a delicious sake. It is perfect as an in-between-dinner drink. My wine-loving friend who accompanied me also accepted the taste of this sake made from the sake's "nama-hashiroshi" (sake brewed from the same yeast as the original yeast).

Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix㉔ Ichihoro is the first sake I've had in three years. I have a strong impression of light nigori raw sake. I drank Junmai light nigori nama-zake (raw sake) Impressive acidity and drinkability typical of sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast 🤔. Junmai light nigori nama sake I've had it in the past and it's still as good as ever. I think the balance is really good. Versatile enough to drink by itself or with food.

Purchased 👀 at Sazanami Sake Shop in front of the station during a day trip to Hikone. Beautiful, corner space and friendly staff. It was a nice store 😙. Since I was there, I chose Kazuhiro, a sake I had never had before from Shiga. It was full, slightly sweet, had a delicious rice flavor, and was very drinkable 😋. Paired with sweet ayu fish from Lake Biwa, it was delicious. ❤️ It is indeed a sake from Shiga, a rice-producing region 😇
