36Guardians⚔️ I've had a nice change of tastes, and was recommended to me by the liquor store ✨. It used to be a very traditional and strong flavor, but now it's a very refreshing and crisp taste, The price is 500 yen (), but it's not bad. The price is also 500 yen (⤴️), I guess the price is 500 yen (), but the taste is acceptable 😋. But I think it peaks on the first day it is opened. After that, it might be better to drink it warmed up.

Rice used is Miyamanishiki I miss the 36th person. I used to buy it at my favorite liquor store about 20 years ago. It has a subtle ginjo aroma and a refreshing taste. The acidity and bitterness give it a taste of white wine. The sweetness increases as the temperature rises after a little time. It is also good as a food sake.

Japanese>English

A sake from Yamagata. It is brewed with Yamada Nishiki. Gorgeous aroma of Daiginjo. It has a clear taste of light and dry. I felt it was very easy to drink with good mouthfeel. I want to drink more of it! A gem that makes you want to drink more.

#Sendai Gobashi# W Gamma Finished work early 🤗 I'm going to have lunch with my friends... It's a warm and sunny day in Sendai. ☀️ We went to a restaurant with a nice terrace. I visited a restaurant with a nice terrace 😁. I'm having steamed oysters 🦪🦪 and this is what I'm having 😆. I can feel the honey, but the spiciness spreads afterwards. It's a very strange taste. But it's delicious. The steamed oysters are big and great 🎉🎉.

Paid tasting, a bit expensive at 400 yen, but the surprising ginjo aroma, muscat-like taste and gentle flavor were delicious. It was nice to see replicas of the display of colored papers of successive prime ministers pasted on the wall, showing their individuality. A web search revealed that Fukubito is I found on the Web that Fukubito was the first sake brewery in Japan established in 1917 as a joint-stock company by investment from sake brewing companies mainly in western Japan.

Japanese>English

Purchased during a visit to a brewery in Saijo, Hiroshima. When the bottle was opened, it smelled a little like magic ink. It tastes sweet like white sugar and has a relaxing flavor. It was different from the tasting. It tastes good, but... On the second day, it tastes just like I tasted it at the brewery. It is delicious with well-balanced flavor 😊.

Japanese>English

Last Sake on the Second Night of Hiroshima Night It is said to be a limited edition sake for the district. After drinking so much, I honestly don't remember much about it, It's a solid, rich sake. I had the impression that it had a slight rice flavor... I was under the impression that it was a little ricey... Hiroshima Night is now over: ☑️

Slightly cloudy. Smoky aroma like smoked fish, but round and quite sweet in the mouth. It would be great if it wasn't smoky...

Japanese>English

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.

Takeuchi Sake Brewery, which is closed on Sundays, so it was hard to come here. Dry taste❗️ It goes well with sashimi. Please give our best regards to Kanoizumi.

Japanese>English

The nearest sake brewery to our house Takeuchi Sake Brewery There have been a lot of rumors in the Kansai sake brewery since last fall 🍶 after a newspaper report in February 🍶. Sake making seems to have been finished by August or September 🍶 We compared the sake we could get our hands on 🍶. Tadai Junmai Ginjo and Tokubetsu Junmai Ginjo had the taste of rice and were delicious 🍶. From now on, Kitajima Sake Brewery will be the closest sake brewery to us 🍶.

Kansai Sake-new year party ㉔ After a short cab ride, we went to Chuin-san, familiar to us from Aladdin-san's post. Inokashira, a sake I had never heard of until now😅. The rice used is Hitogokochi. I think it was fresh, fruity and gently sweet 🤔.

Japanese>English

Classic firm aroma. The strong sweetness is not fruity, but the taste of the rice itself. The flavor is also strong. A direction of Hitogokochi that I did not know.

Japanese>English

I bought this at AEON Liquor when I went to AEON Katsuragawa with a friend. I was looking for something unusual for the parking fee 😁. I've had Fudo before, but this is the first time I've had Niiyu. It has a honey-like aroma. The flavor is beautiful and gorgeous, but it's a bit too refreshing for an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. I would like a little more umami... I think it has a lot of rice flavor 🤔.

Japanese>English

Good evening, first series here 💁 from Niiyu. Also known as Fudo Toi brand, this is a test brew of Niiyu's frog series 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 Rice is undisclosed🍶. As usual, from the aroma, there is a slight melon ginjo aroma, and the taste is like drinking sweet, fresh melon juice 🍈 There is not much acidity or fizz, so it has a fruit juice feel. The second half is delicious with a solid volume from the alcohol 😋.

Purchased at Yokohama Takashimaya Rice used is Kame-no-o type Koshihikari produced in Kasama City The alcohol is a little strong, but the taste is smooth and not like an unfiltered draft. It has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness and is refreshingly clean❣️. There aren't many unfiltered sake that are good all-around food sake, but this one seems to go well with all kinds of food❣️.

Japanese>English

Well, it has a solid rice feeling and no acidity ☺️. I think it's a little light in character, but But I can't help but drink more😋. @Kasama Masuya

The spoils of my business trip to Aomori‼️. Light, refreshing, fruity 🍶🌸✨. Tangy on the tip of the tongue! Easy to drink❗️ Super oicy ❕️! I'm enjoying it very much.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Hanabukiyuki Easy to drink and refreshing. In other words, it is well-balanced.

Japanese>English

It is characterized by mild acidity and deep umami. Although it is a Yamahai, it has no astringent taste and is easy to drink with few peculiarities. It is also good cold, but I would like to try it with a little bit of kamatama. Purchased at Aspam and served on the rapid train "Resort Shirakami".

Toshichan I found a good sake. It has a sweetness to it, but not too sweet. But not too sweet. It has a slight carbonation. It is refreshing and easy to drink.

It is -4 and sweet, but the taste of the rice is perfect and delicious!

Japanese>English

Faint ginjo aroma✨ A sip will leave you with just the right amount of spiciness and sharpness 🥰. This is a food sake, but it has a delicious flavor that doesn't interfere with the ingredients 😌. I rarely drink outside, but this one was delicious 🥰. The disadvantage of drinking it in a restaurant is that you can't taste the flavor immediately after opening the bottle... and you can't tell how it changes the next day or later 😭. The sake I got this time was a bottle and there were only a few bottles left, so there is a high possibility that the taste has changed since the bottle was opened 💧... 💧. And, well, it's impossible for me to drink it in a restaurant... but I have an inquisitive mind as a sake lover 🤭 lol
