Tonight, I'm going to open this bottle for the first time in a long time & the long layover series. Kenshin Special Honjozo 2021BY I'm going to have a glass of this sake, which has been in hibernation for more than 2 years, with a plum crystal I bought in the neighborhood as a side dish. The taste is dry and crisp when cold, but as it gets closer to room temperature, the sweetness and umami of the rice is concentrated in the attack, and it changes to a deliciously dry taste. It gently wraps the sourness of the ume crystal and washes it away, and it goes surprisingly well with it, making it a good drink. ☺️

Continued from yesterday. The second bottle is a sake called Kenshin from Niigata. This bottle was given to me by a friend of my son. The timing was not good, so I was finally able to open it. I took a sip, thinking it would be a little yellowish and dry. I took a sip. Surprisingly, it had a mild barrel sake flavor. It can be used not only with sashimi, but also with a slightly stronger flavor. Delicious! (^O^)

A single-bottle of ginjo fresh-stored sake from a brewery in Higashinada (Narumi). Very pleasant sake quality. It's the season of hydrangea👍.

The rice used is Yamadanishiki from the Sato Plantation in Sosa City. It is said to be free of chemical fertilizers and synthetic agricultural chemicals. The sweetness is moderate. The acidity is citrusy with a crisp, bitter taste. Overall, it is a refreshing summer sake. It is well-balanced and can be drunk easily. The yeast seems to be different from last year's, and judging from the other reviews, it may be a different one. (It's also possible that my taste buds are wrong...) If that's the case, I look forward to it every year! This year's was my favorite type❣️.

This Sake has a lovely aroma of apples. The mouth feel is soft and smooth with a bit of acidity at the finish. There are flavors of apple and grape with a hint of pine wood at the finish.

🏠 Drinking ( -̀ -́ )୨⚑︎゛ I didn't care for the aroma. Crisp ‼️ and no bitterness. Maybe a light acidity when paired with veggies😊. For the entrée... Yakitori with sauce made with rice wine 🐓. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it with vegetables Rice used, Miyamanishiki Yeast, Kyokai 701 Alcohol 13%. Personal preference among 4 types 4️⃣ I received a bottle of sake that has been stored at room temperature for a wacky long time... I tried to drink it but it was old sake ( ´-̥̥̥̥̥ω̥̥̥̥̥̥`) I got about 7 kinds of sake including Tasake and Jyushiyo... What a waste 😭😭😭 The sauce made with Tasake was delicious though 🥲.

Well, well, well. It is fresh and delicious, partly because it is a draft sake. It has a strong rice flavor because it is from a slightly higher region in Niigata. I like that.

Sake from the 100 rice bales brewery. This is my first time drinking sake from this brewery and I'm looking forward to it 😊. It has a delicious rice flavor, a little sweetness and freshness, but also surprisingly sharp and tasty. Thank you for the food 😆.

The word "limited" makes me weak 😅. The owner of the liquor store told me that it was very spicy, so I bought it, but when I tried it, I found that it had a fruity taste and a hint of bitterness that balanced it out nicely 😚. I've never tried Tottori sake before, but it's good. I finished it in two days 🤤.

A freshly squeezed sake full of sweetness. However, it does not have the sweetness of amazake. The sweetness lingers in the back of the mouth for a while and then disappears. There is no acidity or miscellaneous flavors, making it a fresh sake. It is a sake to be enjoyed slowly and without snacks.

The mouthfeel is so gentle that it is hard to believe that the wine has been aged for 5 years. It has a crisp umami flavor with a moderate spiciness and astringency on the back end. I felt it had an excellent balance as a food sake. It is a good all-around sake.

It is "Iginjunsei" (酏吟純聖) Yamahai-brewed Junmai Ginjo by Mifuyu Shuzo. This junmai ginjo is made from Shiga Prefecture's Yamadanishiki rice polished to 55% and fermented at low temperatures using the Yamahai method. You can taste the unique acidity and robustness unique to Yamahai. It is also a great sake that can be served lukewarm.

Special Junmai sake with 60% polished rice ratio I bought the jacket because of the impressive cartoonish, retro Showa-era "Oniotome" illustrations. The illustration was done by Minako Sonobe. It is made with "Homare-Fuji" sake rice developed in Shizuoka Prefecture. It has a calm aroma and an elegant, gentle taste with a well-balanced flavor, and it tastes great on the finish!

I went to Fukuroi Sake House Yamaya for Kaiun Tachiharu Asashimusubori, and I was able to buy it without reservation every year, but not this year 😅I screwed up 😅. Since I went there, I bought another Risshun Asashibori 😊for good luck👍. It's a good omen 📌720ml ¥1,980 Here's a quick rice! The aroma is fruity💕 The color is beautiful💕 The mouthfeel is clean and easy to drink 😊👍 You can also taste the sweetness of the rice 💕 I think it's probably dry. It is a delicious sake that does not interfere with your meal💕💕💕 I couldn't buy the Kaiun Tachiharu Asashibori so I bought it anyway, but the Hatsuwakatake was even better than I imagined👍 Next year I'll remember to pre-order the Kaiun Tachiharu Asashibori 😅.

A love that has lasted over two years has been fulfilled. I had a bottle in Ito izakaya two summers ago and enjoyed it so much that I was looking for a bottle to buy someday. I finally met the devil maiden in love😄. It is slightly effervescent and has a rather firm, juicy sweetness, but the mouthfeel is light and cuts through easily. The aroma is greenish, like unripe bananas🍌. Fresh and easy to drink, it goes well with oily fish 🐟.
