Next is Bishu Kotobuki's Kame-no-o + No. 7 Orikarami. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served cold. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a slight acidity, umami, and sweetness. It gradually finishes with a slight astringency that is typical of Kame-no-o. Next, it was served warm. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a slightly robust umami and sweetness. The taste is slightly astringent, which is typical of Kame-no-o, and it gradually fades away. It tastes better when heated up too.

Japanese>English

The first saké I had last time was a clear saké of Yumeginko from Bishu Kotobuki with No.7 yeast. It is a draft sake, but it was stored at room temperature at the store, so we served it as it was. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of banana and ripe melon. In the mouth, the sweetness and umami are again like banana and ripe melon. The flavor profile is even clearer than last time, sweet and delicious 🥰. I think this sake tastes better if you let it sit for a bit after opening. It was delicious 🍶✨

Japanese>English

Finally, we had a bottle of Yumeginko +7 Sumi-shu. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served at room temperature. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a moderate acidity with a hint of sweetness and umami like banana or ripe melon. The flavor profile is clear, probably due to the lack of orikura. Then warmed up. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a sweetness and umami like banana and ripe melon. The moderate acidity adds a nice accent. Both cold and warmed sake were delicious. I think this was also the best of the three. They have 2 types of Sumi-shu and 1 type of Oragara-mi that I haven't tried yet, so I have to go drink them 😋.

At home. My first Kamo Nishikishu. Almost no aroma. Slightly carbonated and alcoholic in the mouth. It has acidity and umami, but the bitterness is strong at the end. I'll try to warm it up a little and see if the taste changes after tomorrow.

Japanese>English

It is undiluted but low alcohol. 13 degrees alcohol by volume. A moderate tingling of gas. The sweetness of the rice is refreshing and sharp. It goes well with nabe dishes.

Japanese>English

(#´AKAKAKU`#)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we had our first Kamo Kanehide 😋. The aroma is mild 🤔The mouthfeel is gaseous, with a beautiful umami and refreshing sweetness, and the finish is fresh and acidic to finish it off 😊. It was a delicious sake that made me want to drink more and more 🥳.

Kansai Salmon Wagura Gathering (10) The off-line meeting is now in its final stages, and my memory is getting a bit fuzzy about moving seats and other things, so I thought I'd close by uploading two of the notes that were left behind. Takaji Prototype Unfiltered Nama Sake Aroma of rice with a hint of sweetness, fruity sweetness on the palate, and a pleasant aftertaste. I am a fan of robot anime because of my job and the word "prototype" 🤣. This is my first time to drink "Tagaji" written in hiragana 😋.

Japanese>English

The meeting with Mr. Gula ⑬ I've had 18-mori before, but this is my first time to drink Tagaji. And it is a test brew of hiragana. It is a gorgeous and quite sweet sake. A little dry and sweet. It must have been gassy when it was freshly opened. It's a blend of several yeasts, with a bit of aromatic yeast.

Japanese>English

Sweet with a graininess. Slightly astringent, reminiscent of white wine, with a slight acidity. It leaves a delicious aftertaste. É It is very drinkable and has an alcohol content of 16%. It is a little heavy, perhaps due to the fact that it is a pure sake. It may be more appealing when paired with a small, tasty snack. It is a draft sake, but it will get even better as the days go by!

My favorite Yamori 😍Yamori has been delicious since New Year's 🍶...Hachitanishiki-like fruity rice with a sweet aroma and a fresh mouthfeel...light and refreshing...then sharp! It doesn't disturb the taste of the Setsume...I can't help but drink too much...YAMORISHIGE is delicious....

Japanese>English

Junmai Oragami from my favorite 😘yamori! Personally, I like Hachitan-nishiki...the sweet bitterness of the first swallow...the moderate bitterness and sharpness of the aftertaste...exquisite...delicious...delicious! It's not for beginners, is it? This is good for sake lovers!

Japanese>English

I love "Yamori" (😋)🦎♪ Sweet fruity aroma of rice, sweet taste, good acidity & bitterness....Hachitan Nishiki is exceptional....excellent balance of sweetness, acidity & bitterness, good aftertaste....I think it's a winner in my book! ...It goes well with seasonal firefly squid (🦑) & fresh bonito (🐟) dishes as snacks......it's a "winner" in my opinion....

I'm late to the party, but I'll be there❣️. This is a lightly nigorized version of another brand of Nara Kashiba's famous sake "Okura", Kinko❗️. I'm not sure what to make of it. I love the sizzling, crisp, refreshing taste of the active nigori 😆. I like both Okura and Kintsugi because they have their own unique 🥰 I'd like to enjoy it again soon ( ˊ̱˂˂ˋ̱ )

Japanese>English

Lightly nigori sounds good✨. But surprise, surprise! It's slightly spicy, yellowish, dry, and richly dark😳! This brewery, Okura in Nara, has a unique personality🎵.

Japanese>English

I was wondering if I should post this as it was given to me at a tasting, but as a record. Not knowing the date the bottle was opened, it is difficult to judge, but the characteristics are a texture that you can feel the core of the rice, dryness, and an acidity that is assertive throughout. It said it was mizu-hashiroshi brewed, but I wonder if this acidity is a feature. The best thing was that I met a sake with a strong impact and that the proprietress remembered my name ✌️.

Fizzy Acidity Umami Dry Fresh Bitterness Fruity Crisp

It is a sake named after a place in Gosho City, Nara Prefecture, where Chiyo Sake Brewery is located. Like Kushira, Gosho is a town with many difficult-to-read place names. For example, Bunze, Iuka, and Saragi. Gosho is a nice and peaceful place nestled in the bosom of the Katsuragi and Kongo mountains. Aburanaga-san of Kaze no Mori is also a sake brewer in Gosho. I guess it's a good place for sake brewing😋. It's been a while since I've had a Kushira, but it's dry and full of rice flavor. It's delicious 😆. I would like everyone to try it along with Chiyo's other brand "Shinomine" 👍.

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've chosen Kushira. Delicious 😋

Japanese>English

Shinomine's terroir brand Kushira✨. I bought two kinds of Shinomine's summer sake, so I have no choice but to give you a first look🤣. The aroma is slightly sweet. The aroma is slightly sweet, but when you put it in your mouth, it has a delicious taste of rice and then it snaps! It's also got a good amount of gas, which adds to the sharpness😆. It's an unfiltered unpasteurized sake, but it's quite light✨. I think it's a great food sake that goes well with any Japanese, Western, or Chinese food✨.

This doburoku is made to order. I pre-ordered it at the end of August through a guide from my favorite liquor store, and it has arrived. It's my first doburoku! The sweet and sour Awaraku in the photo expresses it all. It tastes like sweet sake with the texture of petite rice and the sizzling cider-like carbonation you feel when you crush it, making it a refreshing, mouth-watering drink. It's adjusted to 5% alc:5% and goes down swiftly. It's no longer a dessert!

Japanese>English

I was completely captivated by the 126. This time it is in a large size of 1440ml. It is also nice that it comes in a PET bottle with no decoration at all. The bottle was opened while feeling the healthy yeast. Yes, it's really good! It is a super thick, bumpy type of wine. The expression is too harsh, but it is like "drinking yogurt-flavored porridge" (it is delicious, so please do not misunderstand me...). It is low in alcohol and you can drink it up in no time. I still have about half a year to go, but I can't wait for this year's season.

Japanese>English

One of my colleagues recommended that I buy a bottle 🍶126, which he said should be read as doburoku. It has a refreshing sweetness, sourness, and fizz, so it is truly an adult's calpis soda! The rice is still there, so I guess it is a pulp(?) I think it's a Calpis soda with rice 😁. It's 5% alcohol, so there's almost no alcohol taste, and I can't stop drinking it... I'd drink it every day ✨.

Continuing from yesterday, a comparison of the tops of the median that was given to me by Princess Sabori: ‼️ First, the blue label ‼️ This is R3BY It's a Tokushun but with 50% polished rice 🤣. The aroma is like grape 🍇? It has a gentle sweetness and a bitter finish that is also gentle and tasty 😋 I think I prefer it to Araubashiri. Next, I'm going to try the R2BY black label supernatant 👍.

Japanese>English

Forgot to post this😆 Then the R4's. I knew I prefer the taste of this one 😋. I think I like the taste of the one year aged one better 😋 It's mellower or calmer....

Japanese>English

Followed by Origami: ‼️ I took the supernatant before mixing it, and it was not so different from the supernatant before 🤣. No wonder 😆. When I mix it, the flavor is so much better 😋 I would like to repeat this 👍! It's also cosmetically good to buy only the "ogara-mi" and enjoy it twice 😆.

I wanted to drink this Yoshida-kura. The label is gentle and has a sense of deliciousness. It has a little bit of acidity and it is very good.
