This is a gift. It is expensive at 3,000 yen for a four-pack, but I love it. It is said to be the first brewery to ship unpasteurized sake. It is said to be the oldest existing company in Ibaraki Prefecture. It does not have the trendy sweetness at all, but you can taste the umami of the rice, and although it is not fruity, it is very gorgeous. The impression is especially rich when the bottle is just opened, but after 3-4 days, the impression changes to mild. I always drink it chilled, but I would like to try it warmed. But I have never tried it because it would be a shame to miss it. It has been 3,000 yen for a long time now, but I wonder if they will raise the price soon. I would like to buy one before that. 9

At the store. Easy to drink while Junmai Daiginjo, but dry? Clear. Sake was light on the palate.

Clear and refreshing! (These are just the impressions of a sake beginner. (These are just my impressions as a sake beginner, please don't get me wrong. It's all right as long as you enjoy drinking it.) (The following is a reprint from the description on the Internet. It has a fresh aroma and a smooth smooth throat. It has a dry, light taste with excellent sharpness. It is recommended for first-time sake drinkers as it is easy to drink. Incidentally, the Sudoh family has been brewing sake since the end of the Heian Period (1141, the first year of the Eiji Period), and is the oldest brewery in Japan, now in its 55th generation. The brewery is located in Kasama City (formerly Tomobe Town) in the center of Ibaraki Prefecture.

Slightly pineapple aroma. The taste is not necessarily rich, but rather full of flavor and sweetness. The lingering finish is gentle and easy to drink.

Another beautiful bottle this year. I was able to obtain it. The blue gradation is wonderful! I think last year it was the color of wild cherry. The taste is soft and gentle. Delicious! It didn't have the piquancy of a fresh sake. Like?

It is quite pungent, and the acidity creates a bit of sweetness. I think it is a crisp sake.

It has a soft freshness. Creamy aroma, like vanilla. The mouthfeel is quite silky, with a hint of sweetness and flavor. There is a hint of citrus. Mild, but with a bitter and spicy aftertaste. Rather than drinking it by itself, it is very suitable for drinking with food. A bit alcoholic for me😅. I'd like to give it some time and see how it changes.

Honestly, it's not my favorite⁉️ The flax cat is still there. 🐈 But with ispahan, the sour flavor of the cake goes well together💕 思議🤔 Thank you for the many delicacies this year. I'm looking forward to another wonderful encounter next year... I hope you all have a happy new year. Katya

I had a good thing, so I left this in the refrigerated room, which has become a dedicated temperature for cooling sake, just in case something good happened. The carbonated bubbles were large (I personally prefer a smaller one), Anyway, it was easy to drink and tasted so good that I drank it right up. I could taste it, but it was so easy to drink. And drank it in no time, I went to bed with a patter, though, The next day, I felt so refreshed. It was so refreshing that I wondered if I had drunk it the next day. I could have drunk as much as I wanted. Thank you very much.

Smells like lemon. Slightly carbonated, fruity rice flavor, sweet and sour, like drinking from Masu, bitter and sour aftertaste. The lid is orange. Day 2. Relaxed and drinkable without any sugar. Just right sake.

(ますますます +. We had Takasago from Kiyamasa Shuzo 😀. It was completely different from Jikan. I'm not sure if I'd drink it with refrigeration, or if the aroma would be milder. No? I'm not sure if it's too acidic or not when I drink it 🤔. I didn't like it, so I heated it up and it turned into a different kind of sake. I found the heated Takasago to be delicious 😀.

It has a freshness reminiscent of flowers and grasses, and a gentle yet fragile taste. The modern light sake quality, like limpid spring water, is clean. It may seem thin if you are used to strong flavors, but the gentle taste of koji and lingering acidity make it refreshing.

2021/08/28 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Juicy sweetness like a ripe melon. The acidity is a little moderate and round. The rich flavor of the rice comes through. The impression is beautiful, gentle and healing. It is a sake that gives the impression of being "gentle and sincere without being delicate. This sake has the same impression.

Purchased at Sota Watanabe Shoten in Aizu❗️ Since we are in Aizu, we want to buy sake that can only be bought here 😊. It's my first time to drink this brand ❗️ The aroma is moderate and the taste is very refreshing ❗️ It doesn't have any special characteristics but it is well balanced as a food sake. It's a good and easy to drink sake👍

Good evening! From the past history, I'll upload the sakes I drank at #Ginura Sake Bar. This time, it's "Senshin". This sake is made by Asahi Shuzo in Niigata Prefecture. It is 5 years old, but it tastes so beautiful that I felt it was boring for the price. I don't know how I would feel if I drank it now. I would like to drink it again at Gin Kura. (^O^)

This is my second post tonight, back home to my parents 🙌. Kubota Kenshin Junmai Daiginjo 2021BY✨ I'm opening a bottle to feel a traditional sake for the first time in a while: ☺️ The rice used is 100% Takananishiki, and the polishing ratio is higher than that of Manju, which is a high-end line. The aroma is of the light, dry Niigata sake of yesteryear, but with a hint of matured sweet grain 😊The taste is a perfect complement to Japanese food as a mid-meal sake, with a sharp aftertaste, but with a soft, full-bodied rice sweetness that is delicious in its own right 🤤.

Furusato Tax: Hakuro Taruzu Drinking Comparison (1) We compared 2 bottles of Hakuro Taruhu Jun Daigin set with the Hometown Tax return gift from Tsuruoka City. ✌️ First, let's start with Dewa Sanzan 😄. The aroma is fruity with a hint of sourness. The label says it is mellow and umaguchi, and while it is certainly umaguchi, it is characterized by its sharpness, leaving the impression of acidity and dryness in the aftertaste. It has a strong sense of transparency and is both mildly sweet and spicy, making it a good mid-meal sake. It has a wide strike zone for temperature, and can be served cold, of course, but it also shows its potential at temperatures that are close to room temperature.

Furusato Tax: Hakuro Taruzu Drinking Comparison (2) Drinking comparison of 2 bottles of Jun Daigin set of Hakuro Taruzu with the Furusato tax return gift from Tsuruoka city. ✌️ The second bottle is Rashinban, my personal No.2 brand from last year. Ordered again this year with Furusato tax return 😂. This is an ice-aged Jun Daigin made from the beautifully named Yuki-Onogami sake rice, polished to 33%. The top aroma is tropical fruit🥭 type. On the palate, the sweetness and umami are firm, but the finish is quick and curiously refreshing. The aftertaste is full of ripeness and spiciness, and the taste is delicious from start to finish.

A liquor store in Yamagata recommended this sake to me. I bought it because it's a Junmai Daiginjo made by polishing a rare type of sake rice called Yukimajin up to 39. The alcohol content is high, but the taste is refreshing, sweet and mild. It's rich with flavor but crisp after drinking it 🙂 It smells very fragrant and makes me happy😇
