Today, I went shopping at Naritasan Shinsho-ji Temple. And by the way? I thought I'd buy some sake. Chomei-sen! The name is good luck! I had no choice but to buy it. I thought, "I have no choice but to buy it! I want to cherish my good luck! I took it home and opened the bottle, thinking I would drink it as it was cold there. No blowout. First, the supernatant. I could feel some acidity. After that, I stirred it well, poured it into a glass, and drank it! It is sweet! As soon as you think that, it goes from dry to sharp. And then the four-pack was gone.

(**Thanks to 🍶🍶🍶🍶) I'm opening a bottle of Hayaseura from Fukui Prefecture 😀 I've been looking forward to it since I bought it at the brewery last year 😆. The aroma is mild and pear ✨😊😊The mouthfeel is light with a beautiful sweetness and umami 😚It also has a nice acidity and sharpness 😘It is sweet and umami but has a clean aftertaste 🥰This is a delicious sake😍This is a perfect strike👍👍👍 It's a sweet and tasty sake that is dangerous to drink ✨🥳🥳.

Mouthfeel, mellow 🍶. Slightly sour, slightly bitter✨ Complex taste or nice 🌸 I enjoy it very much.

［Fukui Spring New Sake Festival (9) The event was coming to an end with a series of sake from Ishikawa. We decided to try something a little different and had a drink here 🍶. Hayaseura Special Junmai Sake "Umi-no-Otoko This is an old sake that has been stored in the brewery for 3 years and was served warmed 😁. The aroma of rice flavor, the gentle texture on the tongue, the impact of the flavor at the back of the throat, the warm aftertaste of heated sake, and the bitter taste at the back of the throat at the end........ It is a "man of the sea" respecting fishermen who work at sea, and I feel that it is strongly made to go well with local fatty seafood and salty preserved food 😋. The entrée sold out unexpectedly quickly, so I emptied it before I could check its true value💦.

While somewhat discreetly sweet, the Aftertaste is dry. Good sharpness 😋. I'm under the impression that this would be even better with a little bubbly ✨. However, as the temperature rises, the sharpness becomes duller and the sweetness becomes more pronounced. The sweetness becomes more pronounced. I think it's better when it's cold 😋.

I bought this one at Kimura Sake Brewery after hesitating between it and Daishinshu. I have had Toko before, but this was my first time to try Yong. The top aroma is mild but fruity. As the introduction of Shusen-do Horikazu says, it does have a hint of cherries, doesn't it? It is dry and fresh with a moderate sweetness. A little citrusy? Sharp dry sake. A little too light for me? A little too light for me. After a few days, the dryness settles down.

Japanese>English

I went to Yonezawa City during Golden Week and purchased this sake at Toko's Sake Brewery. Nyu is a sake that is only available in Yamagata. With a coupon I got at a roadside station in Yonezawa, I got a sake bottle with Toko's name on it. It is a dry sake with a Sake meter rating of +6. It was easy to drink with a clean taste. 1760 yen.

Mild aroma, melon-like flavor. Quite fruity. Easy to drink ✨I drank it with sashimi.

Dry and crisp ✨ It is characterized by the lightness that is typical of Gohyakumangoku 🌾. A fish-based accompaniment will make your cup of sake go further 😋. Sake that is dry and crispy I have the impression that Miyagi has a lot of crispy sake.

I've known the name for a while, but this is my first time drinking it. The rice is 100% Shukumei. It's fruity at first, but at the end, it hits you hard. It was easier to drink Gohyakumangoku, a special junmai, but I thought it had a common taste and passed it up. This one has more character. It is fruity and dry.

First Fushimi sake after debuting at Sake-no-wa! It's been a while since we went to Kyoto, so we decided to buy a bottle of Fushimi sake. The first time I took it out of the refrigerator, I had the impression that it was too alcoholic to be good for me😑. However, as the temperature gets closer to room temperature, the sweetness increases and it's nice 😳 It's mellow and easy to drink like Fushimi sake. It's delicious! This is a sake that should not be chilled, but lukewarm heating might be good too🤔. I'm so glad I bought it in the end ☺️.

A fellow triathlete was at Daimaru in Kyoto, A triathlete friend of mine was at Daimaru in Kyoto and bought it on the recommendation of the clerk. He asked me to come over to his house to drink it 🍾. If we're going to drink, let's practice first ⤴︎ So 🏊&🚲&🏃‍♂️ practice and then party 🍻. It's aged well and colored perfectly ✨. But I can say with certainty that it's not something you can just slurp down on a tired body, I'm sure it's not something you can just chug down 🤣. Best to drink it dry 😅.

There is no description, but it has a light nigori taste. It has a slightly richer flavor than the Dewa Sanzan that I drank recently. The rice seems to be well melted. As expected from Omachi, there is nothing to say 🤣.

The fifth sake was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Gin The fifth cup was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginzoku Gekidaku. It is made from Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and It is a limited-edition shipment of a well-balanced blend of Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa-Tsanbai junmai ginjo. It is a blend of Yamada Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa Tsannin Junmai Ginjo in good balance. It is very thick, but has a nice sharpness. It is a dry sake that is thick, but has a nice sharpness and is very refreshing to drink. It is a dry sake that can be drunk very refreshingly.

A special junmai sake with a clear taste. It's a little more refined than I usually prefer. In that sense, it may not be like a special junmai sake, or perhaps it is because it is a special junmai sake? The aroma is nice too... 🤩.

🚢. The nice thing about tastings is that you can drink things that you might not think to buy in a four-pack. I don't often drink super dry, so I'll take this one since I'm in the mood for it. Since I've been drinking sweet sake so far, the dry sake makes me feel "kyuu" in my hungry stomach that hasn't had lunch😅. I wonder if it goes well with sashimi?

Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake 🍶Nao Kumi Tezume Arabashiri✨Gin no Yume🌾. Kochi-Ehime train trip 🚃Day 1 😆 A glass at Kochi Hirome Market 🍶 Kirei, dry. Crisp and dry. The flavor is also strong. Salted bonito tataki🐟 is washed down with a smooth, refreshing finish. Fried Kibinago (dried yellowfin tuna) is also smoothly poured. First time having bonito tataki with salt, but it was very tasty 😋. Bonito Bokchiri @ Kochi Hirome Market 20240516

Very sharp and dry, goes well with meals! I want to eat it with bonito tataki.

I had always wanted to come to this restaurant, Jyu. It was a nice place. The sake I chose was Dokure, which is labeled as an amazing sake from Kure. At first sip, I felt a slight sourness, but when paired with food, it was very good. As one would expect from a master brewer, he made the sake he wanted to make himself. It is a sake that goes very well with food.

We have two minamis in our office, and they are in the same section, so when I call, I often get the wrong person💦. That aside, this time it was Jungin from Kochi Sake Minami. Dry fruity with a bit of acidity. Very drinkable👍. It can be drunk with a wide range of dishes, not just fish 😋. It was a good sake with a reasonable cost❣️.
