My brother went on a trip to Tochigi and bought this sake for me. Tochigi, but sake with Kashiwa from Kashiwazaki, Niigata. I rarely drink Daiginjo, but this one was refreshing and easy to drink.

Japanese>English

I drank this sake at the end of the year. It was the first time in a long time that I drank a little high-class sake. I drank most of it heated,

Opened October 19, 2024 Purchased at Funabashi Tobu Department Store event Very smooth (o^^o) Gentle, fresh, tongue-tingling sweetness with a hint of fermented acidity ☺️ Soft to the throat and easily absorbed ^ ^. I want to drink it slowly when something good happens 😆.

Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno City, Saitama Junmai Daiginjo. The rice for the sake is Kitashizuku🌾。 This is a limited edition of 600 bottles stored at freezing temperatures (-5 degrees Celsius) for 5 months, and I want to drink it 💦 This is a small 180ml bottle at Yokouchi Sake Shop Drinking Comparison Day. So_1F350 A little gassy, like a summer drink. The mouth is a little hot 🔥. It's hard to describe, but it's sweet and spicy. 16% alcohol and 47% rice polishing ratio

Japanese>English

Purchased in Nerima Ward, Tokyo ♪ Alcohol content@16 Sake degree @ Undisclosed Acidity @ Undisclosed Rice used: Undisclosed Rice Polishing Ratio@Undisclosed Personal Recommendation@3.8/5.0 Fusui is the third brand of Igarashi Shuzo following Tenranzan and Igarashi. ❣️ A fire-brewed, undiluted blend of the three Junmai Daiginjo, Junmai Ginjo and Junmai Sake in the Fusui series 😍. Now Igarashi Sake Brewery is complete 😝. It's not a draft sake, but it needs to be refrigerated, but it's delicious warmed up too ❓❓❓❓ but I can't drink heated sake on this hot day, so I'll drink it chilled to a crisp. ✌️ The aroma is mild but apple-like. It's not gassy at all. Igarashi is known for its gasiness when pumped directly from the bottle. It has a slight sweetness in the mouth 👄. And a slight bitterness that spreads 👄. This is a well-balanced sake, It doesn't have any outstanding characteristics, but as a food sake, I would give it an acceptable score. ✌️

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm going to say it. I've been drinking it with mackerel tataki, wild yellowtail, squid sashimi, and tuna sashimi.

Japanese>English

It was a gift ✨. New politics again! First time for Uhei Sato It's so delicious ✨. It's a little fizzy and sweet, just like Shinsei. It's very easy to drink, but... You can feel the flavor of the rice well ☺️. I was going to drink it for my birthday, but I couldn't resist the temptation of Shinsei.

Japanese>English

Sato Ubei 🍶 which is only available in Akita prefecture. I think this is my first time to drink it. The top aroma is slightly sweet. The mouthfeel is juicy, sweet, acidic, and full-bodied. The alcohol content is 14%, which is like sake. It's very drinkable and delicious 😋. I like it better than Niimasa 😘lol

Acidity Flamboyant Thick

There is clearly more lees than the previous Yamadanishiki. When you take the supernatant first, the taste opens up from the beginning, with a thick umami and sweetness spreading. The Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo reached this state at room temperature, but this one's flavor comes through even at low temperatures. When the lees are stirred, a crisp acidity is added and the aftertaste becomes clear. The full-bodied aroma comes out of the nose, and the taste becomes highly complete at once. This one is also insanely delicious! I've been drinking a lot of Omachi sake lately, and I wonder if this complex and thick sweet flavor is a characteristic of Omachi.

Japanese>English

Yamadanishiki ver. Compared to Omachi's lees sake, it is slightly more lees and has a 1% lower alcohol content (17%). The bottle size is also changed from 500ml for Omachi to No. 4. The aroma is like rice itself and rice malt. The pure sweetness that is typical of Yamadanishiki passes through the nostrils with a slightly thick texture, and there is a slight bitterness that seeps into the tongue. A slight bitterness seeps into the tongue and a tangy sourness on the tip of the tongue. The taste that spreads in multiple directions in the mouth is like a rocket firework. As the day goes by, the acidity will become more rounded and a sense of unity will emerge.

Brewed by Suginomori Sake Brewery, a revived brewery. This brewery is not registered with Sake-no-Wawa.... Despite the chic jet-black bottle. Fruity aroma, sweetness, and The flavor of the rice is very strong.

Japanese pear? Aroma like Japanese pear. Light, fruity and very easy to drink. Can be served with the main course.

Japanese>English

The silver one on the right was served hot. Soft and a little sour. It is delicious with a strong rice flavor. It was cold outdoors, so the hot sake soaked through. Suginomori Sake Brewery had a stall at the event being held on December 14 and 15 in front of Matsumoto Parco. The car is equipped with a sake server and is usually parked in front of a bar called sagyobar near the sake brewery in Naraiyado. When I went to Naraijuku the other day, I was on a break. When I told him that I was on a break, he apologized to me. They are very friendly and easy to talk to. Cedar forest is very expensive, so I took this opportunity to meet them for a drink.

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

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!

Rice used is Kinmon Nishiki Meikyojo-jimizu" is another brand of Osawa Sake Brewery. This is a good sake. ❣️ It has strength and acidity that is typical of a sake brewed from a traditional sake yeast stock, and the aging process has given it a round umami taste. It has a moderate alcohol content, and this flavor is very relaxing. I want to drink it again!

A bottle that shows the quintessence of Yamae Nishiki. It has a rich umami and strong bitter acidity. Rather dry taste. Impressive freshness and richness even though it's a draft ✨. Not too high at 15.5, You can fully enjoy the original sake character 😋.

Japanese>English

This is your first issue. What is this? It has all the good points of Shinshu sake. It has a gentle sweetness, but at the same time it is refreshing. The evaluation was divided as to whether it was dry or sweet. I thought it was sweet. I felt the high level of Shinshu.

Koshino Hakugan is a 50% polished ginjo. This is a light, easy-drinking ginjo-shu that is typical of Niigata sake. Serve with tempura of wild vegetables.

Japanese>English

I've never seen this brand before. It's mostly consumed in Niigata Prefecture, so it's not sold outside the prefecture. I was lucky enough to drink it 😄. It's chilled but very juicy, and it's a true trendy combination of sweetness and refreshment. I drank it at the end of a drinking party, so there wasn't much left of the knob, but it's a very powerful drink that works well on its own. I'd really like to taste it at home, so if I find it somewhere else, I'll definitely buy it 😙. But I drank too much yesterday 😨

Before taking the Shinkansen from Niigata, I had my usual corner 🍶.
