At home. The color is eye-catching. It is recommended to drink it on the rocks, with soda, or hot, but I had it on the rocks. I can't deny that the aroma is pulled in by the color, but it smells like red wine? And grainy? It's quite special. When you put it in your mouth, the sweet and sour taste stands out, and at the beginning of the drink, you feel a unique and strong sourness. It was a gem that I have never drunk before.

Sake brewed from ancient rice. The color is reddish. It may be a good challenge for those who cannot drink sake. The acidity is strong and I found it similar to the taste of Shaoxing sake. It is not suitable for those who are looking for a standard sake, but in a sense, it may be a sake that matches the times, as we now live in a world that demands diversity.

The fourth picture is my first crotchless shot 📸 at Amanohashidate 😁It was a beautiful view ✨🥳.

I have been curious about this one for a long time...Chuai! The slight fruity aroma characteristic of Miyamanishiki, the sweetness of the mouthfeel, and the bitterness of the finish! The moderate lingering aftertaste lingers... I'm sipping it with sashimi, hamo tempura, and local edamame (green soybeans)... Yum! Delicious 😋Hatsuchuai!

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku? The taste is lively and fresh, as only a new brew of sake can be. It claims to be dry, but it is not that dry, and has a refreshing finish that is not sweet. It has a good balance and a high cosmetic ministry. I would love to try other brands.

The entry is soft with a slight citrus aroma, and the overall taste is dry with a moderate amount of flavor typical of Omachi rice. My wife and son had bought some spicy chicken from Saizeriya's take-out, and we enjoyed it as a snack.

Brewed by Yamaoka Sake Brewery in Miyoshi, Hiroshima Brewed by Yamaoka Shuzo Zuikan Junmai Happo Nigori Nama Shuzake The bubbles are so strong that it is difficult to open. It is hard to open. Excitement is outstanding even before you open it. When you drink it, you can feel the exhilarating carbon dioxide gas You can feel the refreshing carbon dioxide gas coming from the bottle. Super sparkling sake 🍶. AKA carbonated juice for adults 😆.

bonus🍶 Delicious Hamachidori with Sashimi We had it with 🥒🧂, spinach and enokitake mushrooms because we were full 😋. As expected in the season of year-end parties: ‼️ The stores were so crowded and the ones I knew were temporarily closed everywhere, so I walked around🐈⸒⸒⸒⸒🐾🐾 Tired of walking around, we took a break at a restaurant we passed by. Although there were not many kinds of Sake, they arranged some Tsumami for us even if they were not on the menu. Sweet and spicy fried cockerel 🐔. The kotteri taste makes Hamachidori even spicier ( °◊° )ho

Junmai 🍶 fresh stored sake✨ Crisp and dry 😳. Sake of the sea 🏖. Goes well with the sea squirt I bought as a souvenir at San San Minamisanriku Roadside Station. You can also taste the sweetness. The octopus also had a lot of flavor. Purchased at San San Sanriku Roadside Station.

I wonder if it tastes old-fashioned for the label😅. It has a good flavor, but it's also very sour: ❗️ I think it's difficult for people who don't like sake 🙏. The sweetness increases as the temperature goes up. I would like to try it warmed up next time. ❗️ It tastes like it would go well with strong flavored food or oily food 🤔.

Tatsusen is a first. The rice called "Kyo no Hana No.1" is also new to me. The name alone might make you think it is Kyoto rice😅. It seems to be a phantom rice revived by the Tatsusen brewery. Is the aroma a little peculiar? It has a beautiful and elegant fruity taste. It's hard to describe its complexity. It is a light sake. There is a strong sense of extract and grain. The acidity is strong at the end. It has a caramel-like taste. The overall impression is dry. Fruity and dry?

The third shot was Tatsuzumi, Sashiu-san's gift sake. It's so bitter, isn't it? Tatsusen! It is said to be a special blend of Junmai-Nigori and Jungin-Nigori, so I imagined it to be cloudy and heavy, but contrary to its appearance, it is light and easy to drink with a light gasiness and sweet acidity from a clear dry base. This is also a horse! Thank you very much for the meal!

I was going to get him to buy this ice breaker a year ago, but he didn't buy it before it was released. This year I was able to get one, so I opened it right away. It's thicker, perhaps because I put ice in it to drink it. And it's sweet. It's the first sake I've had in a long time, so it's delicious. The label is cute because I like penguins

Tonight, I'm dropping my second bottle of the first series as well🤗. This is Yaemon from the Yamatogawa Sake Brewery out of Kitakata, Fukushima ✨. The nose is clean, fruity and citrusy. The first sip has a clean, fruity, citrusy aroma with a hint of green banana sweetness and a dry, crisp finish. It is perfectly suited for a mealtime sake. The rice is undisclosed, but I imagine it to be Gohyakumangoku or Yumenokou, and I like the taste.

[Mutsubu Nigori Sake This is the first bottle I bought at the Fukushima Museum in Nihonbashi. I'm not sure what to make of it. The aroma is like strawberry 🍓. This is the first time I've ever had this kind of beer. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I think it's a good thing. I don't think it would go well with sashimi... It's a good marriage with rich, sweet and spicy chicken liver 😋I'm sure it would go well with pumpkin stew as well.

Today is a holiday. But I went to work. On the way home, I found a four-character phrase I wanted to try, Nagasaki Prefecture's...four-character phrase? I found a four-letter phrase, "sixty-you-you-shu" in Nagasaki Prefecture, which I had wanted to try! Is the Kanto region the same as Nagasaki Prefecture? (I don't know what the weather is like there.) I decided to drink it right away. It's a heavy fruity wine. Is it the fruity rice flavor? And even though it is a draft sake, it doesn't have a sharp taste, but rather a calm taste. I like this kind of taste. Nagasaki Prefecture has a lot of sake that I like!

This is from the father of my oldest son's wife💕Thank you💕 I received this 📌720ml ¥ 🍶. Here's the rice 🍶. Not much aroma. The color is a pale gold. The taste is refreshing 💕 A little sweetness from the rice 💕 A little bit of sweetness from the rice💕 A little bit of spiciness comes a little later 💕I don't dislike it 👍It's very stable 😁It's like an all rounder 👍 I didn't get the same impression as the label on the back 😅

It's Tori Aristocrat, so this is the only sake I have.... It was cold in the restaurant, so I made it hot. It smells like alcohol.... It's hard to drink. When the temperature dropped to room temperature, it became easier to drink. I've had it cold before, but it's the type of sake I'd expect to be warmed, but it doesn't go well with warmed sake...

It's been a while since I've had a normal Akagisan! I love the refreshing taste of summer, but the crisp and dry taste during the cold winter months is also very refreshing and special ✨. The clear and beautiful mouthfeel is also reminiscent of the snowy winter landscape! It's also a great choice for warming up during this time of the year. But in my opinion, Akagisan is best drunk cold 😋.

It is no longer a must-have. I've been saving it for a while since I bought it, but I opened it just as it was getting a little warmer! (I'll spare you my impressions.) It has a light, refreshing, umami dry taste and a clean, crisp throat, making it a great choice for the coming season 😌. In my opinion, it is a 🍺 substitute...!
