飲みたいけどお酒のストックがない😔 という時の心強い味方🍶 アル添カップ酒も馬鹿にできませんね。おいしくいただきました😊

Sake made with red rice. Purchased at the brewery. It is easy to drink with low alcohol content, but the base flavor is pretty classic, light and dry. It is light and easy to drink, so it is not suitable for drinking on the rocks or with soda.

At home. This is the first time I've had sake from Hokkaido. I thought that Hokkaido's sake was more alcoholic, but it was completely different. You can feel the sweetness of the rice, and there is a bitter taste at the end. It is a refreshing type and very easy to drink. We received a lot of sake from Hokkaido, so we will try to taste and upload it little by little.

A Drink to Remember Series (5) In the early summer of 2015, I planned to take my car on a ferry to Wakkanai, Hokkaido, and when I arrived safely in Wakkanai, I had a drink at a yakitori restaurant for the first time in my life 🍶. The memory reminds me of the faint muscat-like aroma and sharp sharp sharpness 😋. The beauty of the label with the brand name, the wish behind the name "Fuyu Hanabi", and the taste of the local sake when you drink it on a trip...it was one of the reasons I became a sake lover 🎵. I still see it at Sake-no-wa from time to time, so I couldn't help but fish it out from old photos 😆. By the way, the picture was taken when I drank it with my family at the New Year's celebration after I returned from my trip. The other bottle in the picture, "Yukikirara", will be introduced another time ✨😉👍️

This is Kitanoshiki Houmon Honjozo. It is a little dry sake, but you can feel the sweetness. It is a delicious sake.

Are you aware of the new administration? That was my first impression. White grapes, low alcohol, white wine like taste 🍇. Oh, 15 degrees is not low alcohol 🤣. I guess it's a different flavor than Gagakuyo ✨.

Mellow, refreshing, sweet 🌸🍶✨ The label lured me to buy it and I was right ❕😆. Super oicy💗. My favorite kijoshu 🍶💠. I'm enjoying it very much.

𓂃🫧 Purchased with Hakuginumi Calpis soda for adults(*ฅ́˘˘ฅ̀*)♡ Reasonably priced🎶. When you drink Calpis soda, you'll notice that it's a photo 3️⃣🙀. It tends to be dry when paired with shime saba So... I drank it while eating fried chicken I drank it while eating snacks and drank half of it in no time 😂😂. Izakaya shinkansen🚄drama I want to drink 🍶´- and go on a trip when I'm watching it ヾ(⌒(ノシ｀>ㅿ<)ノシ(⌒(ノシ｀>ㅿ<)ノシ)

Japanese>English

I used only ayu (sweetfish) for this dish. I also served bonito and Spanish mackerel tataki with a lot of myoga. It has a slightly high alcohol content and sweetness for a Niigata sake, so it went well with the ayu fish, bonito and Spanish mackerel. It was a good evening drink.

Japanese>English

Local liquor store on the line... ♪ Fruity flavor and a slight effervescence. Highly recommended for those who want a little sweet nigori! I heard that it is a very good choice for those who want to drink a little bit sweet and a little bit tangy. I had to try it! I bought it in a hurry: ‼️ After returning home, I opened the bottle slowly, little by little. The white ooze that had accumulated at the bottom of the bottle danced and danced like snow every time air entered the bottle. Dancing. Dancing. And then, the taste is just as delicious as I imagined, and I dance, too.

I sleep weirdly too much and this is exhausting 😅💦. I don't remember who it was that said that sleep is not accumulated even if you sleep a lot, so lack of sleep will never be solved 🤔. Well, I'm going to drink some expensive alcohol and go back to sleep. Let's open the bottle and go back to bed. The aroma is fruity and the taste is lychee-like, just like yesterday's M, but something is different ⁇ When I compare what the difference is, I think it's the alcohol taste that comes out in the aftertaste 🤔❓❓ I don't know what the difference is, but I'm sure it tastes good anyway 🤣👍👍.

Since Nakano was on my driving route, I visited Iga-ya for the first time 🚗 Being Japan's smallest-production brewery, I was determined to buy at least one bottle! After tasting samples, I chose this one 🍎 Everything was insanely delicious (tasting alone is only 500 yen, highly recommended! Buying a bottle waives the tasting fee lol), but among the samples, this one seemed most effortlessly drinkable even with meals 🍽️ Simply put, it's a clear, beautiful, sophisticated apple juice 🥹. Its slight effervescence and sweet-tart flavor remind me of Shinsei No.6 🍾. Combined with its light 11% alcohol content, it's dangerously easy to finish in an instant if you're not careful 🤤. The lady who served us was also absolutely lovely, so I definitely want to visit again 💖.

Once opened, no turning back style Smells like yogurt Light mouthfeel, lactic acid flavor, slight sweetness and rice flavor. Slowly bitterness. Refreshing in the mouth. Delicious! I found myself drinking it quickly and no need to put the lid on.

I got this one at my wife's parents' house. I've drunk Rumiko-san before, but this is the first time I've had an active muddy one😙. After 10 minutes of opening and closing the bottle, I finally made a toast🍾 It's fresh and crispy❣️and tingly❣️. It's got a nice sourness and bitterness to it 😆. I think I may have drunk the most 🤪! Thanks for the treat🙏.

I've been drinking a lot of cold sake lately, so I had it heated for the first time in a while 🥰. The rice flavor is very strong and perfect for warming up ️. The mild and soothing taste is very relaxing 😊.

The aroma is sweet like amazake, and the taste is sweet and easy to drink! I'm sure it will lead to the creation of a new demand.......and I'm enjoying drinking it with homemade vinegared mackerel and homemade spring rolls that I caught........

I've been wanting to try some nigori sake lately 😆. I saw it in the store yesterday, went to buy it today, and was supposed to open it tomorrow... but I couldn't wait, so I opened it today and drank it 😅! There are many nigorizakes out there, but this one is Junmai! It has a nice crackle and a nice "umami and gentle sweetness" of the rice 😻🎉. Originally I was thinking of the 3x Domu from the same brewery, but I was so taken with the Junmai that I decided to go with this one. I'm not sure if I'd be able to do that, but I'm sure I'd be able to do it.

Japanese>English

Sake filled only with Domuro-roasted rice. Slightly effervescent. It has a rich sweetness, but the alcohol taste is a little strong at the end.... The official online store of Endo Sake Brewery is formatted like a mail order site for health foods and supplements 🤣. Maybe it tastes better at higher temperatures? Nutty and caramel type sweetness comes out.

The rice is Hitogokochi. The top aroma is gentle but sweet. It is sweet and delicious, but reserved and calm. It is apple-like. Compared to Miyamanishiki and Yamane Nishiki, which we have drunk so far, it has a calm atmosphere. When drinking it again, the aroma is gentle, but the taste is sweet and delicious.

Japanese>English

Hana of Tsukiyoshino Unfiltered Nama Sake 720ml 100% Hitogochiki produced in Nagano Prefecture Rice polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol content: 15%. Purchased at Hara's in Ueda on Saturday. With amazake, of course. It is a gorgeous spring-like sake with a more mellow sweet taste. On Saturday, we went from Tateshina to the Ueda Castle beyond the ski resort. It was already starting to change colors. The parking lot was full. We had lunch at a buckwheat noodle restaurant in Sakaki Town on the way to Chikuma. We never had a bad experience at any soba restaurant.

The rice used is. Yume Issho from Fukuoka Prefecture Freshly pressed and unpasteurized sake, it has a fresh and crisp mouthfeel. It has a slight muscat-like sweetness and a refreshing finish. You can drink it like a soft drink. It is suitable for a wide range of dishes, but I think it is best served with yakiniku (grilled meat). It is perfect for a rich flavor. ❣️ I would like to repeat this delicious sake. ‼️

Japanese>English

. Sake rice: Yume Ikkyo Rice polishing ratio: 65 At "Yakitori Genkotsuyama" in the main station of Toyohashi Yakitori at GENKOTSU YAMA Sharp, dry and crisp! Not much of the nigori (nigori sake) character! ✩3.5

Japanese>English

. Sake rice: Omachi Polishing ratio: 65 Not much Omachi character. It has a calm flavor. It is best served hot or lukewarm! Similar to Shinkame in flavor! 3.5 stars
