A gift of Koshino Kanbai, 100% Yamada Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture. The rice polishing ratio is 30%! The aftertaste of Yamadanishiki, with its moderate bitterness and full flavor, is good.... I guess...

Japanese>English

I bought it at Max Value. The aroma is lightly fruity? It's a good idea to try a little bit of both. Today, my second son is taking care of me. It is better than drinking alone✌️. I think I'm going to drink too much😊😊😊.

Japanese>English

A tipple at the wife's parents' house. This sake has a matured flavor from multiple sake rice varieties and is moist and easy to drink. The accompaniment is an osechi dish

Tenshin 3

A social gathering with my fellow participants from the Kyushu training program 🍻. Tenshin's Tokujun was so delicious that I bought a bottle of Jun Dai and brought it with me 🍶. It was a little refreshing and easy to drink ❗It was delicious, but the taste of Tokujun had a big impact on me! I guess the concept of the label is to drink it in a clean and quiet environment! I would certainly like to drink it slowly every day! Both grilled and boiled gyoza at a gyoza restaurant near the training center were too good 🥟 There was a long queue!

Japanese>English

A local sake brewery. The label is summery with goldfish on the back. When we opened the bottle, it had a fresh and gorgeous aroma that was unique to Tenshin. The flavor was clean, but with a deep sweetness that went well with the salty yuzu pepper flavor.

Japanese>English

Last week I spent a week in Fukuoka on a business trip. I went with a colleague who loves to drink, so we were busy, busy, busy. We drank and drank. I was very satisfied. The photo shows Tenshin, a famous sake from Kokura, which I drink at my regular hotel. This is another stable sake, as usual. Souvenirs were Wakanami, Shichida, Matsuura Ichi, and Kitaya. The usual lineup. I have come to visit Kyushu by chance, and Kyushu is not only good for shochu, but also for sake. (To be honest, I drank only Kurokiri during my stay.)

〰fixture 2020BY Kochi Yeast Gin no Yume 🌾 Kochi Prefecture 2021/11 Brewed with care and attention to detail The best taste as expected 😋.

Japanese>English

Last weekend, I hung around the town of Shichigahama. We enjoyed the new seaweed festival, and although we did a bit of fishing, the bite was not so good at this time of year with the low tide, so we had a very productive Sunday. We stopped by a liquor store owned by a former junior colleague of mine. The aroma of the top shelf is a rich ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is dry, as is typical of Kochi sake, but the umami is also present. It has a slight sake-like aftertaste and finishes with a mild acidity and bitterness. When heated, the rice aroma becomes more pronounced, giving it a more sake-like flavor. The bitter taste at the end is also a nice mature taste. Thank you very much for your kindness!

(I'm sorry for your inconvenience. Today I got a bottle of Bakuren for the first time in a long time 😀I missed buying it last year, but this year I got it ✌️. The aroma is gorgeous and firm muscat 🍇The polish is 33% and there is a little sweetness from the beautiful rice 🌾, but it is still very sharp 🤩They say it is super dry, but I found it very beautifully dry. I found it very beautiful and dry 🥰.

At a soba restaurant selected as one of the 100 best soba restaurants in "EAT LOG". I was lost in the many dishes on the menu and decided to go with my favorite "Kamo Seiro" and a decanter of Kanazawa-ya sake. It was recommended as dry, but it was soft rather than refreshingly dry. It was delicious!

Yamamoto 1

Yamamoto 2

Yamamoto 3

The concept of the first Yamamoto is "Yamahai brewed sake to be drunk chilled". The aroma is of rice with a hint of sourness and bitterness... .... The aftertaste is very sharp. It is a sake that should be cooled down to a crisp. The mouthfeel is complex...there is no sweetness at all. I'm having bonito with silver skin, myoga with sesame oil, and fried oysters as snacks.... It goes well with sashimi....delicious....

Japanese>English

Made from natural Akita cedar wood vats. The aroma is distinctly different from that of a ginjo. The label is also very pleasing. It has a solid flavor of rice, but If they don't call it a "hoarding It's so beautifully sweet you can't tell.

Japanese>English

It was another irresistibly hot day 🥵. On days like this, I toast with this one that looks cool and refreshing 👏. The strong sourness is nice and refreshing. It's not sweet so it's easy to drink with a meal and the slight fizziness is pleasant ☺️. It's not too sweet, so it's easy to drink with food.

Sake Tasting Gacha at Sasaki Sake Brewery This is another sake limited to the brewery. It was sold in a refrigerator, but I'm not sure if it was fresh sake or not. Gorgeous and fruity. Dry but delicious. 4gou 5500 yen 😱. Most of the high-end sake was made with 1801 yeast.

Salmon Monogatari in Kansai(´・ω・`) Red is the color of the bottle. It has a moderate ripeness, and the more you chew it, the deeper the flavor becomes. The more you bite into it, the deeper the flavor becomes. It makes you want to have something to eat. It is the type of sake you want to drink slowly, so it may not be suitable for events.

Tenma Daijukai (¡°Tenma Sake Association¡±) This sake is named after Governor Yoshimura And an illustration of a mysterious person on the label Where is Governor Yoshimura? Where? It's a very typical mature, slightly dry junmai sake, and it's good warmed up. It's the type of sake I'd like to drink on a regular basis, but it's more of a souvenir. I misunderstood. I'd like to buy it if it were available!

Japanese>English

Tenma Taishukai 2024 ④ The day before, I tasted Sakakamatsu from this brewery at a liquor store in Ikuno Ward. He asked me if I was going to the Tenma Sake Festival. I've been to this brewery and bought sake before. I think it was a brewery in Osaka, but closer to Wakayama and near a fishing port. I drank Junmai Ginjo Natsusei Nemuchi-san confirmed with the brewery that it was the same Sakakamatsu Natsusei that I drank the day before. Hmmm? When I drank it the day before, I had the impression that it was a summer sake with good flavor and drinkability, but something is different... Is it the temperature range? It seems too thin or too light 🤔. Summer Ginjo This is also a summer sake. Similar to Junmai Ginjo, but this one is spicier.
