Rice used: Sasanishiki, Dewa Kirari, and Miyamanishiki grown in Yamagata Prefecture. I found this in a grab bag at a liquor store in my neighborhood, which has become a regular feature for me. It's not a great deal in terms of price, but I look forward to it because it contains brands that I don't usually buy. This one has the sourness that is typical of a traditional sake brewery, but when you drink it lightly, it is refreshing, and as you continue to drink it, the sweetness comes slowly. As the day goes by, the sweetness will increase even more. The sharpness is not that great, but it is not overpowering either, making it a good all-around sake. The price is less than 1,000 yen without tax, but I️ think it's quite competent.

😊. I had some of the sake that was sent to the owner of the inn. It was my first time to try Kurosawa rice Yamada Nishiki. It has a delicious acidity that makes it easy to drink, so I was happy to have some of it. I think I may have drunk too much 💦.

Rice used is Yamadanishiki This sake has been aged for three and a half years. I had kept this sake at a friend's store when Corona first became popular, and I had lost track of the right time to go there. The other day, I finally met it. Although it was protected from ultraviolet rays, it could not withstand the severe temperature changes and had completely "aged". It was a shame, but he kept the store going strong, Thanks for saving it for us when we moved.

Japanese>English

It is a junmai-shu made from rice, which is the main ingredient. We are particular about the "soil" in which the rice is grown, and use only 100% specially cultivated "Yamada-Nishiki" rice for this sake. This rice and Kyoto's famous "Fushimizu" water are slowly brewed using traditional techniques cultivated over many years. This junmai sake is highly aromatic, and the umami of the rice can be fully appreciated. The 720ml bottle is packaged in a carton. Medium-bodied. Fire-quenched. It is delicious cold or at room temperature as it is. It tastes great and you will never get tired of drinking it. Purchased at a liquor store in Kyoto. Alcohol content: 16%. Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic) Rice polishing ratio: 60 Sake meter degree：0

Japanese>English

Tasted slightly chilled. Nose is soft and round, with melon, licorice/fennel, and lychee. Flavor is mild and soft as well, apple and straw, with a mild and slightly spicy finish. Texture is thin all around but pleasant. A wonderful drink by itself but I worry it will be overpowered by food other than nigiri or other similar items.

The second drink at Marukoma was my first "Koshu". It is light and crisp with a pleasant lingering aftertaste. The second sake was "Koshu", which is also from Niigata but has a different flavor from the "Hokusetsu" that we drank for the first sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

This Sake is light and not too sweet. There are herbal flavor notes like licorice and mint. The finish is clean with a light mineral aftertaste. I am told this is a limited, seasonal Sake.

. Sake rice: Niigata-grown Senjyuraku Polishing ratio: 55 Sake degree: +4 Acidity: 1.1 Sake made by Asahi Shuzo, the brewer of Kubota At "Honokuni" in the main station of Toyohashi Fruity, no sourness or bitterness at all. Flavor is clean and quite weak! ☆ 3.5

This is the second of the three bottles I bought at the supermarket the other day. This is the first time I've had this brewery. I was wondering why there was only one bottle left at the store, but I was curious, and I was going to buy one bottle of Eikoh, but I picked it up. It's sweet but easy to drink ☺️.
