The 2nd meeting with Mr. Gura (2) I've always been curious about Ryoga, but I haven't been able to buy it because they only sell one bottle and it's dry, so this is the first time I'm drinking it. Dry taste It's so light and dry! The acidity is refreshing!

You can always find it at any supermarket 🤗. It's easy to drink because it's low in alcohol and has a fizzy feel👍 It is similar to Mio in taste, but I think I like it better than Mio. At any rate, I like the fact that you can drink it without any snacks 😆👍👍.

Japanese>English

Super oicy❕. A true sparkling wine 🍷✨💠. But the rice aroma and taste is still there❗️ I can't get enough of this! I enjoyed it very much(^-^)/

My wife likes it, so I buy it whenever it's on sale. It's easy to drink and it's delicious ✨.

Returning home to my parents' house Since I've come all this way, I'll have a glass of Saga sake. You can feel the depth of rice in this sake. The accompaniment was octopus dumplings from Yachan-do!

Japanese>English

Here's the second drink, a drink comparison at HAMA BAR in Kashima City. Nokomi Special Junmai Sake The concept of this sake is a light taste with a mild aroma. It is made with "Saga-no-Hana" rice, which is suitable for sake brewing in Saga Prefecture, and is said to have a light taste. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity that makes me want another glass 😁!

Japanese>English

HAMA BAR④. Second from the left is Nokomi. I'm really sorry, but I was not impressed😅.

Tono-Doburoku 3

I have always been curious about this sake. First, let's take a sip. Smells more like candy than fruit. Banana cake, lychee, yogurt, freshly baked pound cake, very ripe peaches. No sign of activity. Concentrated! Concentrated syrup. Tart on the tongue with a good sweetness, ripe fruit like pears, green apples, and some alcohol as when the fruit is quite ripe. Finishes with bitterness, acidity and sweetness and has a long finish. Good and amazing. Power. It's drinkable with a splash. Shake a few times to mix and drink. Rice, milky smell. The rice flavor, sweetness, and sourness of the rice spread out in a flash, and the doburoku, or doburoku, has a fruitiness that surrounds the main rice flavor, and the bitterness comes in and gives it a nice sharpness. The rice is almost completely melted, so it is smooth and refreshing. Delicious! A few days later, after shaking and mixing, it did not separate even after a few hours. The alcohol feeling gradually faded away, and when I drank it, I could feel the strong rice flavor spreading out, sweet and mellow, like a dessert. A delicious drink.

Japanese>English

There are several alcoholic beverages that have been neglected for almost a year since I bought them, and this is one of them. Let's open the bottle to see what it tastes like! It's so easy to drink! Doburoku is generally considered to be a rather difficult liquor to drink because of its strong acidity and various other strong habits. But what is this doburoku! It's not so sweet or sour, just enough to give a gentle taste of the ingredients, and it's easy to drink! For those who like that habit, it may be quite insufficient. However, I like it this much better now. Other doburoku seems to take a little more getting used to. The rice mash is not that strong and has a mouthfeel similar to muddy sake. If I am wrong, it may even be easier to drink than the more habitual muddy sake... lol. Combined with the PET bottle container, it felt like Koiwai apple juice. Are my nose and tongue going crazy? I can feel the apple feeling somewhere. The packaging is probably a parody of the classic movie Leon. I found a funny one on Twitter, so I'll post it here.

Japanese>English

In a word, sour! From sourness came a slight sweetness. Strength of fermentation.

The first cup of the second night. The concept of "dessert rice wine" is very true. It has an elegant sweetness like Japanese sweets. It is thick and dense, with a distant bitterness. The sharpness is not bad and the outline is clear, so it is easy to drink even though it is quite sweet. It's difficult to make an appetizer with it, but it would go well with dessert. It's perfect with grape jelly👌.

Japanese>English

Again, no rice used or major specs. It is a very low alcohol sake at 5%. Oh❗️It's really red! is my first impression. I remember drinking red sake before, but once again I thought rice is amazing. It's hard to recognize this as sake when it's served without saying anything. It's almost like a rosé wine, with a strawberry-like flavor. It's light, but I'm not sure I like the sweetness and mouthfeel. If I were served this sake at midnight, I'd be in a bit of trouble.

Japanese>English

The rice used in this is also unknown. A slightly low-alcohol type of Junmai Ginjo So far, this is the most authentic and the driest sake in the HINEMOS range. The mouthfeel is clear, light and refreshing. When you drink it, the umami-sweetness spreads out, and at the end, you can feel the bitterness and spiciness in the throat and nose, and it tightens up quickly. Yes, yes, this is my favorite type 😋. I️ want to spend more time drinking this one.

Refreshing, sweet and delicious😋. Mio has a huge market share in the sparkling category😃. It would be great if women who are not familiar with sake could be awakened to the taste of sake and start drinking it every night 😛.

Japanese>English

Aizan sake, still stocked but a little interrupted for refrigerator reasons😅. Shochiku Ume, but brewed in Nada, not Fushimi. There's a big building that looks like a factory near Sunshine Wharf. The bottle and cap have a unique design. The aroma on the nose is quite gorgeous, with a slight nuance of peppermint. In the mouth, it has a gorgeous sweetness and a bitter spiciness. It is refreshing but has a strong personality, probably because it is an unfiltered sake.

Japanese>English

If you drink only unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake during the winter, it can be heavy at times, so in the spring, drinking a light sake like this is good for the stomach 🙂.

Hiya. Firm umami flavor. Spicy richness in the middle.

Japanese>English

This is the first time I've seen this warehouse. The rice used is Maikaze. As the name suggests, everything, including the yeast, is from Gunma, and it seems to be an annual event. The mouthfeel is mild. It is bitter-sweet with a slight banana aroma. It gently finishes with a hint of umami. It seems to have a lot of depth. Well-balanced and cohesive sake. I️ would like to visit Funao Falls too!

Japanese>English

After a few drinks, it was quite late, so I headed home while eating a golden dharma bento commemorating the 140th anniversary of Takasaki Station. I will close my Gunma trip with "Akagisan" and "Funao Taki"! Sweet and sugary aroma like sugar. The taste is smooth and silky, and while it has a Gunma sake-like quality, it tastes more like a sweet sake derived from brewer's alcohol. There is nothing outstanding about it, but it is a perfect match for ekiben (boxed lunches), with its unobtrusiveness, slight sweetness, and crispness!

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 😆.
