I have been wanting to try "Morishima" for a long time. The aroma is sweet and fruity, and the mouthfeel is sweet too... The finish is crisp with just the right amount of bitterness! Nice...delicious! It also goes well with food...Enjoyed a good time with the summer stamina "Hamo-ten" and "Edamame" from a local farmer....

Japanese>English

At home. I️haven't had Morishima for a long time, but this one has a sweetness and a slight sourness in the back of a gentle mouthfeel, and a clean aftertaste. It's always good to drink it.

Japanese>English

At home. Sake that you can't help but want to drink. I am thankful that the liquor store I always go to always has it. Tonight it was paired with chicken dishes. I think it is the best sake for any kind of food. I am already a captive of it.

Drinking with my wife on our wedding anniversary last week, when we visited Tsushima Tsuru at the Metropolitan Morioka New Wing (laughs). Next up was a Hiyoroshi (Hiyori) Junmai Harazake by Drunken Sen. It's a refreshingly dry sake. The description says to enjoy the mellow flavor, but that's just my personal opinion... (^_^;) Good with sashimi! It was delicious! (^○^)

Japanese>English

I tried three types of draft sake at a tasting and sale of Drunken Sen in Hankyu. I couldn't find a picture of the first one I drank, the Honjozo Nama, even though I searched for it. I couldn't find a picture of the first one I drank, but I guess it was because it wasn't winter time and there was no snow. I was told that this was a matured nama sake. It was delicious, with a beautiful, round taste. I had a hard time deciding which one to buy, but the last one I tasted was a fruity special junmai, so I went for that one.

Japanese>English

Tasted and purchased at Umeda Hankyu. Sake from the Drunken Sake Brewery. It seems to be a terroir-like sake. It is delicious with a little bit of gasiness and both fruity and rice flavor. Once the gas disappears, the fruity taste disappears and the umami flavor takes center stage. I don't feel much spiciness. I wasn't sure whether to register it as Tagata, but the cap was Drunken Sen, so I registered it as Drunken Sen.

At home. Cui Yu after a long time. It's more elegant and refined than Hanayup... Hmmm, I have the impression that it has been generalized. The aroma is green apple, the sweetness and sourness are well balanced, and the finish is sharp, so you can't help but drink too much. On the middle day of the week, I drank a good sake to get through the rest of the week, and nourished my wisdom.

Japanese>English

The brewery is famous for its "Hanayuup. Compared to "Hanayuup", the aroma is mild. The aroma is mild. The sweetness is moderate. and the umami is as strong as the Hanamup. and it cuts cleanly. As a food sake, it is more versatile. I think it is more versatile as a food sake.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild. The first sip is sweet, but gradually a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity spreads. The last part has a good spiciness and a nice sharpness. Although it is unfiltered, there is no heaviness, and it is smooth to the palate. After a few days of drinking, the sweetness has gone away and the acidity has risen, but it is also delicious. Hana Yuu is good, but Suiyu is as good as it gets.

Slightly sweet rice aroma....sweet and bitter taste that I like... Unlike the light and dry Niigata sake🍶, this sake has a modern feel, like a sake to be enjoyed in a wine glass. .... This is delicious 😋 ........ It's a relaxing and blissful time.......

(*^▽^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I had my first sake from Sado Island, Garakudai 😀 The aroma was mild. It's very refreshing and fresh, with a hint of rice flavor and a gentle acidity to finish it off 😙The low alcohol content makes it easy to drink 😎.

Japanese>English

2021/05/03 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ A refreshing muscat-like aroma. The sweetness is a bit heavy and the sourness is a bit strong. It's a little heavy on the sweetness and a little heavy on the sourness. The overall taste is clean and clear.

Sake rice used: Hanabukiyuki, Mutsuhomare Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 15-16%. Sake degree : +5 The mouthfeel is never harsh. However, it soon develops a mellow, gentle feeling. After a little sweet aroma of rice, the spiciness rushes in and gives you the sensation of being hit hard. After that, you feel a bitterness for a while, but it is a light spicy sake that is not too heavy. I wonder if it is called "light and dry"? Thank you again for the sake tonight.

Japanese>English

I drank a special junmai in Aomori and enjoyed it, so I bought a junmai ginjo as a souvenir. It is a little dry and mild. It is delicious with a hint of koji malt. ⭐️4.4

I bought it for a souvenir, but a customer traveling from Hokkaido🐴 gave me some chocolates and I didn't have any on hand, so I had to rush to the store and drink it with everyone, including my sister🥂. I heard it was only medium-hot, but it's still hot ❗️. I want to warm up some 👩 for my sister! I just had a reflective stove. (I was boiling daikon radish for oden 🍢) I'd love to heat up some sake with this 👩 It's not a fashionable place, but it's a very relaxing and nice place 🥰. I'll see you later 🎁🙏🏻

Morioka! I chose the sake to go with the stylish snacks. This is also my first time. Nice choice by me. It is nice and clear and dry. Iwate's dry sake has no grandfather. The dialect in the store is nice. It makes the sake go down a treat!

Purchased at Isetan Kyoto The penguins are cute and impulse buy💦. It has a faint aroma, and after drinking it, you can taste the rice and a little pungent taste. I was surprised at how light it was when I put it in my mouth. It's also low in alcohol, so it's a good drink to have outside at lunch.

Japanese>English

Shotoku Junmai Daiginjo Kyo Purchased at Tomiya in Kyoto Station. It is a Kyoto souvenir. It is brewed with celebratory rice produced in Kyoto. Soft to dry in the mouth. It has a sour taste and is delicious. The accompaniment is dried mackerel with mirinboshi. That's right, it goes well with mackerel.

Japanese>English

The label is "Shotoku" in katakana, a novelty. We use 100% of Kyoto's original sake rice "Shukyu"! It's not easy to drink in Tokyo! It's hard to find in Tokyo! It's hard to find in Tokyo! Let's take a sip... ⁈This is ⤴︎ The rice is packed with flavor. It's packed with rice flavor, and it spreads in your mouth. It's dancing 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 delicious! And later, the aged flavor! The mouthfeel and flavor is rich and I also enjoyed the lingering taste from the acidity♪♪
