Snow boy because of the cold wave (lol) When you drink it cold, it's surprisingly refreshing. But if you drink it lukewarm, the sweetness spreads in your mouth It's a completely different taste!

At home. I bought this as a souvenir when I enjoyed lunchtime drinking at Changlong Brewpark and had it at home. I guess it is a slightly different version of the one I had at lunch. The aroma may be influenced by the name of bamboo ⁉️.... Unlike the lunchtime drink, it was fresh, sweet, sour, and refreshing. The fact that I was able to bring back a good one as a souvenir made my day more enjoyable and memorable... ‼️ The fourth picture is of Kaguya-chan, the mascot of Hiroryo Town.

At Changlong Brewpark. The second drink was Shikisaki. We were told that it is recommended as a food sake, so we had it with our bento. It is a dry sake with a strong umami flavor that can be savored slowly. It has a completely different taste from the Sakurabito we had earlier, and is good for variety. ‼️ We got tipsy and bought some souvenirs for our holiday.

Japanese>English

Dry with a hint of flavor. Almost room temperature at the beginning of the drink. No sweetness whatsoever! But it's not hard to drink. I don't know if this is a good analogy, but I drink it as a very light shochu. It's meant to be a sipping drink, but it goes into your body quickly! The second day starts with a cold sake. On the back of the label, it says it's a little dry. Perhaps because it is an unpasteurized sake, it doesn't have a strong alcoholic flavor, but it does have a bitter aftertaste and a tongue-tickling sensation. It may not be suitable for those who don't like the dry taste.

A sake store in Joetsu, Niigata that I have wanted to visit for a long time. Kiraku. First of all, I would like to pay my respects to my hometown, Joetsu. Tsukifumi-no-ike pond is a famous place in Itoigawa, and is said to be located in a dense forest, making it difficult for the moon to be reflected in the pond. Local Takananishiki grown by the brewer. It is said to be full-bodied and sharp, but it is very sharp. This is the mainstream of Niigata-Joetsu sake.

Japanese>English

I bought this sake after my wife recommended it as an easy-to-drink sake at the store where we usually go to buy sake. It is slightly dry and has an aroma that lingers on the nose. The aftertaste is refreshing and delicious. 1,650 yen

Japanese>English

Purchased at Takashimaya event😆👍 Out of the three types, I️ started with the Tsukiyomi no Ike. The aroma is nothing but semedyne smell💦. The taste is like a matured sake, but not fully matured so it's easy to drink for a matured sake😅💦. I just don't like it on the web. I'll try to warm it up next time and enjoy it!

It's just the two of us on the second day of our trip. We started the day with a beer toast! After the second beer, my wife had beer and I had sake, cold yesterday and hot this time! I think it was the highest temperature! Not much aroma. Not much aroma, but the mouthfeel is clean and easy to drink without getting stuck in your throat! It was a perfect match for a kaiseki meal. It was a hit with my wife. By the way, our trip to Izu was the same as last year! The hot springs are great!

On the first day of GW, the 29th, I purchased sake that goes well with meat 🥩. It's a collaboration product of Kumamoto's sake brewery "Zuitaka" and "Gullitcheu Fukushima" wrote the label. It's a dark, strong tasting sake that goes well with meat 👍️. I forgot to take a picture but the char-grilled chicken sold as a set is really hard 🤣. I have only a calendar day off, but I work on Saturday even though it's the first day of GW. I opened 3 bottles in a flash 👍️.

Today, following yesterday's Aizan drinking event, I went to the Osaka Bay Tower's Japanese sake festival event 😀. I was informed in advance by bouken-san that there was a sake that Saku-san usually does not have, so I made a toast with his wife with that sake 😇. The sake was even clearer and fruity than Saku's usual sake, and we were very satisfied from the start 😀. During the live taiko performance by three women, my wife and I, who are both learning taiko, were overwhelmed by their amazing performance 😇. We were able to compare over 130 different types of sake, but my favorite was from Yamazaru, a brewery located in Asa, Yamaguchi Prefecture 😇. From the aroma to the mouthfeel, it was right up my alley👍! I had a chance to talk to the brewer and asked him about the stores in the Kansai area that carry it.

Smells of powdered milk, flowers. Slightly effervescent. The junmai I drank before was so good that it was a repeat purchase, and it lived up to my expectations. It is well-balanced and when you notice it, you can drink it all at once with a slurp. It has a floral, not too sweet, pungent, well-balanced flavor, and a satisfying umami and a sourness that is very satisfying. The 4th day. It has lost some of its flavor and can be drunk without hesitation.

Fruity and delicate sweetness. Famous for its potato shochu, "Treasure Mountain, The brewery's sake challenge. It was surprisingly legitimate.

This is the much talked about "Tensho"... a faintly fruity aroma... the taste is sweet and comes in nicely... the aftertaste is nice and sour and crisp... delicious... 😋This is an excellent wine... ...I'm looking forward to the ministry of...the terrifying...ministry.

This sake is a cross between Yume no Kaori ✖︎ and Fukunoka. It is a dry sake with a little sweetness and a robust umami flavor. It is more suitable as a well-balanced food sake than as a stand-alone sake.

Japanese>English

〰fixture Yume-no-Ko (fragrance of dreams) 2022/12 Fukushima-produced Yumenokoh reduced to 50%. Aiming for a balance between a full sweetness and a lingering aftertaste The clean sweetness produced by the koji malt and sexiness in the beautiful sweetness produced by koji mold. Knowing the workings of life with all five senses The spirit of brewing with the utmost sophistication of brewing If you put it on the divine horse "Sama", that is to say it will be "Sei-iki Sama" and bring "blessings" to people. It is exactly as it should be, a beautiful sake with a glossy finish. The acidity is also strong and powerful.

It's so dark! The sense of maturity and acidity is unbearable. At first, I felt it was sour, but as I got used to drinking it, it converted to the original flavor and sweetness of rice. I found that it was converted into the original flavor and sweetness of the rice. I don't know if I will be able to encounter this sake again since it seems to be a small production brewery, but it is a pleasant and intoxicating sake. ❣️

Japanese>English

I bought this sake because it looked so good, but it was too much supa 😖 I think I would like it if it wasn't too supa 🤔.
