Dry Fizzy Acidity Fresh Sweetness Juicy Light Rum

Corner shop at the mysterious cheese shop (2) Since the corner drinking at this restaurant is self-serve, we discovered an unopened bottle of Moridori when searching the refrigerator! I entrusted it to Mr. Nemuchi, a professional corker 😁. I drank a lot of dry sake at an off-line meeting the other day and I'm in the mode that I can drink some dry sake, right? I'm in a mode that some things are dry, so I drank it. It's definitely dry, but it's delicious with a nice sweetness and gasiness 😁.

Japanese>English

I think it was a collaboration of several sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a liquor store specializing in Hyogo sake with mofu. There were many people drinking sake in the store and the atmosphere was bizarre. When I asked the store staff if it was an event, he told me that they were people who had come from Ozeki's brewery open at a nearby store. The smell of squid filled the air, and the waiter said he was sorry for the smell 🤣. This sake is brewed with salvia yeast collected by students at an agricultural high school. It is slightly effervescent and has a unique flavor. Sweet but cosmetic like no other aroma. A little nutty in the second half. I thought it was a little peculiar. After 3 days, a little bit of rum raisin taste. Definitely tastier than freshly opened 😋.

The freshly squeezed aroma... The sourness is strong on the palate, and there is a bitter aftertaste... Is it because it is freshly squeezed? It's a little rough. It's a good choice to drink with tuna and squid sashimi.

Japanese>English

The first Kinokuniya Bunzaemon! It has the fresh aroma of unpasteurized sake and a smooth, non-viscous mouthfeel. When you drink it, the spiciness comes quickly, but in the end, it disappears, leaving the flavor of rice and a lingering aftertaste. It has a high alcohol content of 18 degrees, which makes it very drinkable, but it is also very refreshing and tasty.

Japanese>English

Here's another one that was given to me. The aroma of the sake is very alcoholic. The taste is sweet and delicious. The aroma is the sake! You can feel a little acidity and bitterness in the finish. I think it is a bottle with a moderate heaviness in total. The taste is similar to that of Kadoden from among the already-checked-in products. The efficacy report says it is good at room temperature to warmed sake. It's a solid sake, so it's best not to chill it too much. It's good for summer! It was not a good one! Thank you for the food!

This sake is made by Shimazaki Shuzo in Nasukarasuyama City, Tochigi Prefecture. Smooth on the tongue and sweet in taste, this is a sake to be drunk slowly.

Japanese>English

Smooth texture on the tongue. It is a delicious sake with matured flavor and sweetness. It goes down your throat and has a deep flavor.

Japanese>English

It is different from the 2025 sake from Yamagata and Wakayama! It is a well-balanced sake with sweetness and sharpness, a little different from the sake of Yamagata and Wakayama regions.

Drinking comparison (๑🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶💕) This is for last month 💧. I'll have the ones I drank this year before the end of this year... 💧. Memo note Alone It has a light sweetness, but it is moderate compared to AKABU. Suitable for a mealtime drink Delicious with fresh tuna from Miyagi Prefecture 😋. Warmed to lukewarm Sourness and alcohol taste My personal preference is about room temperature😸.

Japanese>English

Oh, I want to drink Hama Musume.... Apparently, one out of every three people in Iwate Prefecture has this urge. This is the Iwate-only junmai sake that I keep buying on repeat. A privilege of Iwate residents. **:. o(≧▽≦)o . . :**

I have a new impression of Ehime sake 😁. I had never had much Ehime sake before, but I had an image of it being somewhat mellow and dry. This sake is completely different, it is light and slightly acidic, and together with the bitterness in the aftertaste, it is somehow like grapefruit 😊. It also has a bit of a fizzy feel and is very easy to drink as there is no unpleasant spiciness that lingers in the throat 😋. If it were a little more sour, I think I would find it too sour for me, but this level of sourness is just right 😄. I'm only one bottle away from the nationwide domination of the four-gouple bottles or more limited edition. The last one is in Osaka, when can I achieve it? 😅

Japanese>English

The taste of the rice and the fruity taste can be felt, but it is not too dense. A pleasant sourness. There is also a feeling of juicy melon. The rice is Matsuyama Mitsui.

Japanese>English

Slightly fruity, gentle nigori It goes well with salted grilled chicken.

Honshu Ichi Unfiltered Junmai Ginjo Senbon Nishiki Gift 🍶 Yellowish color and a little bit of aged sake-like peculiarity 🤔. It's more classical than the modern taste of recent years 😅 It's a good learning experience to drink this kind of sake once in a while 😤.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Senbonishiki from Kumano in Hiroshima Prefecture. This brand is probably the first. To be honest, I didn't know about it. The person of the shop said "It comes in after two years". Is it a very limited product? This one is fresh and fruity, just like freshly pressed sake itself. The aftertaste is also crisp and tight with a citrus bitterness❗️. It is a modern sake that is refreshing and easy to drink overall. It seems that there are still some great Hiroshima sake hidden away!

Japanese>English

Store Drinking. 100% Senbon-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture The color is clear. The aroma has a Calpis-like flavor. The taste is sweet and umami of rice. It also seems to have a bit of sourness to it. When swallowed, it has a watery freshness and a clear throat. Aromatic ginjo aroma can also be enjoyed 😊. As expected from Hiroshima Prefecture 🍶. High level in every way. It exceeded my expectations and I wanted more 😆.

Today, I went to Kanagawa Prefecture to get this one that I have been wanting to drink for a long time...fresh aroma, polished to 55% rice polishing ratio....sweet and bitter on the palate...quite bitter, but what is it? But what is it? It's a pure sake, but it's light and fresh! Oh, it's so good! Marriage of Odawara's fresh shirasu caught in the morning with a side dish....... Thanks for a luxurious evening drink!

Japanese>English

Smells like muscat with a sour smell. Sour and sweet, gentle juicy to strong sweet taste. Good wood and yeast flavors that appear along the way. It is like a sweet Shinsei. It goes well with cheese. It is not so sweet that you can't finish your drink, but it is not sweeter than chocolate or potato kenpi. Delicious. Matsumidori: More than expected! When the temperature goes up, it somehow feels like a refreshing juice. It tastes good on the second day, too. You don't get tired of drinking it.

Japanese>English

I've been wanting to try a bottle of my favorite Kanagawa sake 🍶 Matsu Midori... Koji rice is Okayama Yamadanishiki, Kake rice is Nagano Miyamanishiki, and the sake is brewed with No. 7 yeast at low temperature fermentation 🍶...the taste...mellow sweet and delicious 😋♪ Excellent balance of sweetness and acidity It's a great balance of sweetness and sourness! It's a sake that can be enjoyed in small sips, but since we're here, we're enjoying the Kanagawa marriage with Odawara local fish assortment and fried kamaboko from Suzuhiro......yummy!

Another bottle was opened at the Kizuna Festival. Golden crystal that saw the light of day at Izakaya Shinkansen. Gold Crystal label expressed with a characteristic figure. It is one of my personal favorite labels. The top-tasting aroma has a very classical sake flavor. The mouthfeel has a light umami from a hint of sweetness. First contact is lighter than expected. The finish is again full of sake-like aftertaste, with a mild acidity and a strong bitterness. I had imagined it to be a more mellow and stand-alone sake, but it is considered to be a high performance food sake. During the festival, I served it with tempura and dried scallops that I bought and brought with me, and it was quite good! Thanks for the food!

Japanese>English

Tonight I'm having this one 🍶. I got this on my trip to Fukushima last month! I've been wanting to drink this since I saw it on Izakaya Shinkansen 🍶✨. They are the only sake brewery in Fukushima city😃. Mellow, refreshing, oicy❕. The aroma is slightly fluffy 💠. Slightly crisp but still mild 🌸🍶✨. This is a great one ❕. I'm glad I found you 😆. I also love the fukushima saké💗. It's very tasty.

I wonder if the Daiginjyo is less pushed out these days. We enjoyed it with our meal.

Tonight's second bottle was Tsushimaya🌸 It's a sake from Gifu, and as fragrant😍 and rich as the first bottle of Jyushiro, this one is more refreshing and crisp. Both were so good that we ended up emptying the entire bottle 😂. I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea. I promised myself to take a rest day tomorrow😅.

🌧☃️ This is the one that I keep coming back to every year. This year, it's origari, and the expectation is MAX❣️! The name of the wine is "Tropical". This year is also pineapple 🍍!
