Beautiful label...18% alcohol by volume...the alcohol is very strong...aroma: a faint aroma of rice. You can feel the delicious taste of rice on the palate...but the bitterness in the aftertaste is bothersome...It's like a good old Japanese sake...I'm having it with sashimi assorted by my regular old man. .... I'm sipping it. It's a raw sake, so it warms you up....

Kimasa "Junmai Ginjo" 720ml Alcohol content 16%. Rice: Gohyakumangoku Polishing ratio 50%. The label is classical, but the taste is clean, mild and gentle. My wife says it has a nice gap between the two.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Miyamanishiki Compared to the special junmai we drank before, this one is lighter. It has a slight amber color and a slightly matured taste. There is little bitterness, and no cloying taste. This sake is a bit lacking as a cup sake. The sake had a good sharpness, so it had a refreshing taste. 65th cup sake

🏠 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 🥲.

Today is Mukade, the second time it has appeared. After opening the bottle, it immediately had a nice aroma. I wonder if it is because it is a daiginjo. The taste is robust and dry. There is no fruit in it. Yona? 🤔

The third cup is a centipede ministry. The one I probably wouldn't buy based on the label 🤣. But I think this one had the best aroma of all the ones I had yesterday 😋. It was unexpected and made a big impact👍 You're getting into the swing of things now 🤣.

Japanese>English

It is said that it is written "no wind" and read "Mukade". Once you see it, you'll never forget it. It is soft to the palate and seems to go well with any dishes.

Asahi Chrysanthemum brought back from the Obon cemetery bullet tour. This is the first brand of Asahi Kiku. After all, it is a Kyushu sake, so it is hard to find it in Tohoku. The aroma is almost unrecognizable. The mouthfeel is clean and dry, but with enough umami to satisfy the taste buds. It has a classical impression. It is good to drink this kind of sake once in a while! Don't torture me, I'll just say sake words without permission. 〜Cold Chinese noodles with soy sauce or sesame seeds? Sesame?

I wanted a dry, dry drink. There are days when I'm in that mood. You might say don't choose raw, but I realized it after the sake bottle came. I enjoyed it with yudofu. It fits my mood today. When I think of dry, dry sake, I think of Niigata, Hiroshima, and Kochi. I admit to disagreeing.

Japanese>English

This Sake paired well with the home made bacon we had with dinner. The flavor profile is bright with the flavor of banana and has a dry, clean finish. The dryness is mild and not overly strong.

I didn't like the dry taste that much, but it is delicious! It's crisp and refreshing, but also has a deep umami/sweetness. I like it!

This sake was a gift from a junior colleague (son of a liquor store owner). It has been a long time since I've had a classic, THE old man's dry sake. There is a sweetness of rice in the back, and it is refreshing. Not bad. After the sweet and juicy sake, we had a glass of So-no-Sato. Not bad. I've only been at work for a little while after the new year, but the three-day weekend is wearing on me. Sake heals me 😄.

Japanese>English

It was a gift from a junior colleague at work. I received it last year and remember that it had quite a punchy 🤜 flavor. It has a faint smell of cemedine, and a somewhat chemical 🧪 atmosphere in the mouth, but it has a nice, clean taste that doesn't interfere with the meal 😊. It's only 3 days old and it's getting sweeter and tastier 🙌 I got it in a bottle, so I'm thinking of trying some heated sake with ✖️ on the back label 🧐.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki. The rice polishing ratio is 35%, is it the flagship sake of the brewery? It has a solid ginjo aroma, and while it is basically light and dry, it also has a mild sweetness. There is little miscellaneous taste and the mouthfeel is good. The aftertaste has a good accent of alcohol and a solid flavor. Overall, it is a good sake with a cohesive taste that makes you realize again that the alcoholic version is better for the Daiginjo class.
