Kumamoto's local sake, Sanzanmura Slightly sweet ginjo aroma A light, sweet mouthfeel with a soft acidity. Like drinking fresh green apple juice I drank too much and my memory is fuzzy I'm not even sure of the notes I wrote at the time😅. Anyway, it's delicious! Sake brewed with sake rice grown by a pesticide-free method called "Koi Farming" in Sanzan Village! Using the carp farming method, carp are released into the rice paddies 🌾🌾 to get rid of pests. A few years ago, I drank Manbo from Kumamoto Kameman Shuzo, which was a sake made using the duck farming method🦆! There are many people in Kumamoto who practice natural farming methods 🫶.

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`) There is a very good flavor on it, but it also has a light sourness and freshness According to the pamphlet, it is suitable for yakitori and oden. I felt it would be suitable for the autumn taste!

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown We do not know the concept, but it seems to be a "cat series" and there are others like "Wind and Cats". Although low-alcoholic, it is not light and has a deep flavor. It was fruity, well-balanced and delicious sake. ❗️

The initial aroma is fruity 🍎. The palate has a full-bodied sweetness from the rice and a good acidity. Aomori-style sake with a nice sharpness.

I found my favorite Satochi at an Izakaya and couldn't resist ordering it😍. The smell of pears. It smells so good. It has a caramel-like sweetness and then a light sourness. After that, the bitterness comes through quickly. It's a beautiful sake. It's really delicious. It's been a long time since I've had it😊. The taste itself is refreshing, but even with a strong oily taste like mackerel, there is a flavor that somehow does not lose at all ️.

Yamada Nishiki. A pleasantly mild spiciness with a sharp umami flavor...!

I was not going to buy it...but...Mr. Tree Frog...bought it without a second thought...55% polished rice...sweet rice aroma...sweet taste...sweet taste...yes! The bitter aftertaste from the sweet rice aroma... and the sweetness on the palate! I can feel the delicious taste of rice! Delicious... Sake is so deep! This encounter is the best part of sake, and I cherish every encounter...

Japanese>English

It has a slightly sweet flavor with a hint of aroma. It was very easy to drink.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a liquor store in Miharu-cho, where I stopped by when I went to ride the Ban-Etsu East Line last November. It is the flagship brand of this brewery, brewed with local sake rice Gohyakumangoku. The sweetness spreads on the palate as soon as you drink it. I felt it was a little too sweet right after opening it, so I left it in the refrigerator for a month and drank it again after a long time, and it settled down just right.

A bit peculiar but not bitter 🤔. This is a food wine 🍶´- with assorted sashimi 😋😋. Untan ✺✺ and (,,-д-,) nma! There were so many good sakes, but I'm interested in the ones I've never had 😅. I have some pics... but I think I probably drank a little... There were about 4 that I didn't take note of my impressions (¡-ᴗ-;ก)

It's a nice day 🌈 Now, I was expecting a fluchy since it was described as delicious in a glass of wine.... I guess it's not, it's more like slightly dry and tasty 😋. And very fresh 🎉. and the aroma and flavor of rice 🎉. I thought it would go well with any dish, Japanese or Western 👍✨.

Niigata sake is often thought of as light and dry, but this "Tsururei," which I drank before as a gift, is light and umami (light and umami) 😋♪ It has a slight aroma like Yamada Nishiki...you can taste the rice flavor 🍶♪ Excellent as a food sake 🍶! Niigata sake is evolving and deepening. Delicious!

A local sake from Uonuma. It has a light amber color. It has a mellow and delicious taste with a slight bitter aftertaste. It's a good choice for a daytime drink 👍It goes well with strong-flavored dishes as well.

I'm sipping on a small portion of the Smoked Dish assortment from a certain Niigata supermarket...mackerel, salmon, eggs, baby scallops, cheese🧀, nuts...it's a great time to be a drinker. Smoked Dish assortment.... Happy...

Halcyon looks just like poor grass, or so I found when I looked it up. Peach, lactic acid, wood, fresh smell. It has a light peachiness, a refreshing, yet tight acidity, a taste of rice, astringency, and finally a spiciness that spreads rapidly. It is delicious, but the price is too high. It is a good food sake, but the price is too high. It is too good to drink with chilled tofu. I like it. When I ate it with food, the spiciness I felt when drinking it alone was converted into umami, and the subtle sweetness and umami made me want to eat more. When I ate it with fish, I enjoyed the umami and savory taste. It is delicious. The smell gets stronger as the temperature rises. The second day. Juicy. Grape-like.

Koshino Hakugan is a 50% polished ginjo. This is a light, easy-drinking ginjo-shu that is typical of Niigata sake. Serve with tempura of wild vegetables.

Japanese>English

I've never seen this brand before. It's mostly consumed in Niigata Prefecture, so it's not sold outside the prefecture. I was lucky enough to drink it 😄. It's chilled but very juicy, and it's a true trendy combination of sweetness and refreshment. I drank it at the end of a drinking party, so there wasn't much left of the knob, but it's a very powerful drink that works well on its own. I'd really like to taste it at home, so if I find it somewhere else, I'll definitely buy it 😙. But I drank too much yesterday 😨

🐟 This is the first ayu we tasted at the ski lodge. It was refreshing and sweet, and was a nice palate cleanser when drunk in the middle of a meal. It's a shame that I could only drink one cup of it. The label is cute too 🐟

Japanese>English

🌥 It was chilly today 😢. I opened a "first sweetfish" which is cool to look at ✌️. The taste is just like the impression on the label❗️ It's fresh, smooth and easy to drink 🙂. A cool sweetness that is elegant. As for the acidity, as you continue to drink it... oh, maybe there is a little? It's just a little bit. The bitterness you feel after swallowing is also refreshing 😆 . The alcohol content is 16 degrees, but it's like drinking a low alcohol I feel like I'm drinking low alcohol 😉 . It's like drinking a low-alcohol drink....

Japanese>English

This is the first sweetfish recommended by the liquor store 🐟. I bought it by the square because they say it's sweet and tasty this year✨. I had my wife drink it and it was sweet and easy to drink ‼️ 🍶.
