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.

The third bottle is Miyagi's sake rice, Gin no Iroha, Zao no Kokoro series. The first impression on the palate is of muscat! It is elegant and crisp, as is typical of Miyagi sake. Easy to drink. Delicious!

Japanese>English

A summer sake from Zao brewed with Miyagi sake rice, Gin-no-Iroha. Slight ginjo aroma. This is my first time at the brewery, and it finishes with a slight bitterness. It is crisp. The expression of Gin-no-Iroha varies from brewery to brewery.

It was sold in a bottle at a supermarket. 10 kinds were available, and I bought 3 bottles for 880 yen. I think it was 880 yen. I'm not sure if it's the same or not. I like Eikoh because it is easy to drink ☺️.

Japanese>English

It's direct sake ⚡️. It's deep in the middle of sweet and spicy 😽💕. It's so thick, it's classified as a mellow sake! I feel like I'm drowning in Eikun's swamp😅.

This one was given to me in return for sake I sent to my boss, and it's my first Fukuoka Prefecture sake! I didn't know what to choose when it came to Fukuoka sake, so I'm very grateful to be able to drink it in this form! It is a well-balanced and delicious sake. The most wonderful thing about this sake is that it is fire-aged, so it is hard to lose this flavor. It tastes great even after a few days. Although there is sweetness, it does not bother you too much because the main flavor is umami. What is this feeling of being able to drink without getting tired of it? It is not so much sourness, bitterness, or astringency, and it is strange that it is smooth but somehow deep and earthy. Actually, I forgot to post this post after drinking it, but I had this one for New Year's Day. This kind of aromatic and light sake was definitely a good match for Japanese dishes like Osechi. My first Fukuoka sake was a simple and good sake.

Japanese>English

It has a good fruity aroma and taste. It was refreshing and easy to drink.

100% Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima, Fukuoka Prefecture. It has a firm taste. It is not spectacular, but it has a umami taste and is dry. but it has a delicious flavor and dry taste. It went well with the bitterness of the roasted yellowtail.

(🍶🍶🍶🍶´-+ Today's purchase in Akita is a cup of Hiduyoshi 😀. I had it at room temperature and it tastes a bit sweet, solid yet gentle and easy to drink 💕It's the kind of sake that's perfect for an evening drink 😚.

Japanese>English

Hiduyoshi received as a souvenir from a New Year's party I have an image that Hideshiyoshi tastes better a few days after opening the bottle, and this one is no exception! It tasted hard and so-so right after opening the bottle, but after 3-4 days, the impression changed completely. From the flat taste of the past, a clear acidity has opened up along with a savoriness that comes in a jolt, and the dry base has been covered by the savoriness and acidity. The flavor is now fuller and more vibrant, and it's ah~ delicious! Yes, this is it! This is what I mean! Thank you very much for the sake!

The last of the three drinks is here 🍶. Harada Junmai Ginjo Hal Araubashiri The aroma of wood like cedar, the strong aroma of rice, the soft umami, and the gentle aftertaste. As I mentioned before, the acidity was noticeably stronger than the "Harada Gengetsu" I've had so far 🤔. It has a clean and beautiful taste, so this is delicious 😋.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival. It has a nice tropical fruit-like sweetness and flavor with a tangy, slightly effervescent taste. Finishes with bitterness. I've rarely had Harada, but I'd like to try more. Even after a few days, it still has a gaseous taste, but the bitterness is more pronounced than when it is freshly opened.

Japanese>English

Discover Sake in Yamaguchi Prefecture✨. This is our first check-in in Yamaguchi Prefecture! So, Manager! Harada, please! Goes well with meat dishes? Lamb, then! Take a bite... it's rich! Delicious! Dry and full of rice flavor! I could feel it! As the manager said, it's as good as any meat dish! Everyone, I highly recommend 🍖×Harada.

Translated from original in Japanese: 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I've just received a bottle of Bakurai, which is the driest sake I've had in Japan so far 😀 Sake degree +28 😀 The aroma is quite mild, and when you drink it, the spiciness comes on quickly, but the sharpness is excellent, so it's easy to drink. It is very easy to drink.

[Kagataya hanpukai 2021⑧] The last bottle of the 4-month-long hanpukai was a special order of the first Niseko ☺️The rice used was Comet. It was the only one out of the 8 bottles in this hanpukai that was delivered at room temperature. It's the only one out of 8 that was delivered at room temperature. The aroma is gourd-like🥒The alcohol content is 17 degrees, which is a little high, but it feels more like alcohol and has a punchy taste. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but I'm sure it's a good thing. This is how I completed my hanpukai 😆. I was a little nervous about buying two bottles of sake every month, but the brands were so gorgeous and I'm so glad I joined as a result❗.

You can enjoy the sweetness and flavor of freshly pressed rice. The accompaniment is Seikishikkake
