This is also a dry sake with a nice sharp taste. In a good sense, it is a sake for everyday drinking without being special.

Delicious. Did I drink too much?

Japanese>English

🚢. 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?

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^)

Japanese>English

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 🤤.

Japanese>English

The aroma is fruity and the taste is clear as water.

Second one today. The aroma is fruity, the mouthfeel is thick and the taste of the rice is strong. It's a good sake that enhances the flavor of the sake without interfering with the ingredients 😃 It's gone fast ^_^

Refreshing, crisp, dry ✨🍶✨. Soft and fluffy on the palate 💠💠💠. When swallowed, it's crisp and dry ✨💠. Oishy ❕❕. It's delicious!

Japanese>English

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❣️.

Purchased at a store that sells local products of Okayama. I thought I was reading "kyokusei", but I was wrong 💦. A little peculiar reading😅. The rice is akebono. The top aroma is slightly fruity. A little sweet and refreshing. I thought it would be more of a classic sake, but it is easy to drink. Well, is it a fruity sake that is closer to the classic style?

Japanese>English

Okayama Local Sake The first brand I ever drank The original Omachi rice "Takashima Omachi" is used 🌾. No trendy fruity aroma Classical taste Full of thick flavor and richness A crisp and dry mid-meal sake The photo shows "Tairyo Ichiba Nakaura" in Sakaiminato, Tottori. Kitaro is in a good mood holding a big crab 🦀.

Japanese>English

It was different from the image I had of Okayama sake😅. It's quite spicy! I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it. The sharpness is the best🔪 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it.

It has a clear, mellow, and smooth taste reminiscent of 🍎. When chilled, it has a refreshing acidity, and at room temperature it is a deliciously sweet 🍎 taste. It has a refined taste that sinks in easily.

This is my first time at this brewery. I would like to know how many sake named Masamune there are. It is delicious with a strong sake flavor. The label looks like a dairy.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Dewa Sanzan As indicated by the alcohol content of 19 degrees, it is a gut-punching wine. ‼️ And it has the same throat and mouthfeel as you would expect from Muroka Nama-no-Hara Sake. The sweetness also comes through perfectly. It has a great impact, but it is sharp and has a clean finish, so it does not feel too heavy. However, if you drink it too fast, it will take its toll later on. It was a fun drink. ❣️

🥂 Fresh and gorgeous aroma 😌. Umami and acidity harmoniously spread in the mouth 🤤. It was a very delicious junmai namaishu 👍

Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the ㊗️ Sake no Jin, 30 bottles of Niigata sake cups 🎉Chapter 1 Sweet and sour. Zarame. Gentle ☺️. Good with Hokkaido Hakkaku sashimi to get rid of the cloying taste👍Good with fat rather than plain white meat 😋Warmed up to 50 degrees, mild. The riceiness is up, and the acidity is softened. It also has a sweetness. Order from Sake Kadoya @ Murakami, drink at home 20240315

Japanese>English

Purchased at the new "Haneda Airport Garden" at Haneda Airport, an antenna store for the Yamakoshi area in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. The rice used is "Gohyakumangoku" produced in Niigata Prefecture. In short, it is a rich and full-flavored Junmai-shu. It has a classical taste and looks good when heated! The dusty label is impressive.

Japanese>English

This is a gifted sake. I don't buy my own sake in a wooden box😅. When I opened the bottle, I felt that the crisp taste was sharp, but after the second day, the flavor increased and it was very delicious! It's a great sake!

Just a reminder 🙏. This is the second cup at the third "Douka" 🍶. This is also very dry (+7). It's a bit peculiar, but it's like a good old-fashioned sake for adults 🤗.

Yamabuki color, firm cedar barrel aroma and rich flavor. The opposite of a fruity sake. This is what sake is all about. It was a wonderful sake that I never got tired of drinking.
