The sake I bought back from Tottori. Oh... it's a Junmai Ginjo, but it doesn't have a Ginjo aroma... Aged scent? Yes, it's actually a sake that's been aged for 3 years. Aged sake usually has a harsh aroma for me, but But this one has a gorgeous aroma and a soft taste. It's an excellent product for beginners of aged sake.

This is a sake from my hometown - Echizen Ono (Ono City, Fukui Prefecture). It used to be sold at roadside stations, but I looked for it again on my return trip, but I didn't seem to see much of it in the city. I wondered if they are limiting the amount of brewing - or if they are just out of stock. This is the one I found in my parents' fridge. Cool and pungent. A cool spiciness, followed by a nice, clean rice flavor. Then, a strong wave of spiciness hits you. The spiciness swells up while accepting freshness, umami, and sweetness. The intense flavor is intoxicating. After all, Genpei is delicious. I found out that Genpei Shuzo went bankrupt last November, and the direct sales shop was closed. The story of the bankruptcy and revival of the brewery was also seen in the morning drama "Ranman," and I look forward to the time when I can experience the taste of Genpei again.

This is a sake from my hometown - Ono City, Oku-Echizen region, Fukui Prefecture. I bought this sake when I went back home for summer vacation, and it just appeared. It has a sweet aroma that spreads quickly, with a sharp pungency. The sharpness of the spiciness is complemented by the sharpness of the aroma, which reminds me a bit of Western-style sake. It is a country sake, but it is quite gorgeous and sparkling. How about when it is warmed up? The spiciness rushes in like a gust of wind. The spiciness rushes through like a gust of wind, gushing out sweetness and melting away the flavors of the snacks at a torrent-like speed. It is just like spring melt water. The faint scent of vanilla in the aftertaste is also a nice touch. I enjoy the speed and grace.

I was a little curious about it with lots of writing, so I bought it. I heard it was super dry. Hohoho. It has a pungent taste that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes it easy to drink. It has a spiciness that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes you feel like you can drink it without hesitation. Let's try it with meat and fish to see how well it goes with them. The spiciness of the sake also faded when paired with tonteki (pork belly) with sweet and spicy sauce.

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku. I bought it at the end of last year at an antenna store in Toyama. I didn't know about this brand. The color is a light amber. The color is pale amber, and the flavor is just as it should be. It's relatively easy to drink because it's crisp and not overpowering, but it didn't seem to suit my partner who likes floral and sweet flavors. It didn't match well with the grilled chicken, but I think it will swell up with time, so I'll leave it for a while. It's quite a unique sake, and I don't dislike it!

Japanese>English

Subtle aroma of rice The taste is honest, with an acidity and sharpness that spreads in a penetrating manner. Not for those who like fruity types, but it seems to go well with all kinds of food! Enjoy it slowly in the middle of a meal 🍶.

Japanese>English

I was drinking so much in a row that my memory is a little fuzzy. However, all the Toyama sake was delicious, so I am sure this one was too.

The one I bought at the Kisegawa venue of the Shiga brewery opening event. It has a strong alcohol taste with a lot of gusto. It has a strong sweetness and umami of rice. It is better at room temperature, but it is also good on the rocks or with soda. After a week, it still has a strong alcoholic taste, but I think the sweetness has increased.

Japanese>English

There is no mention of it, but it is probably nama sake. It is not labeled as Nama-shu, but according to the information on the Internet, the label on the back of the bottle says it needs to be kept chilled, which means it is Nama-shu. Am I right? The rice is Ginbukiyo and Nihonbare. It also looks like a raw sake. It does not feel as spicy as the sake level, and although it is spicy, there is a good balance of sweet and spicy. The taste is light and refreshing. The spiciness finishes with a lingering sweetness. There is a good amount of graininess.

Purchased at Okadaya, Nagoya Rice used is Yume-Ginko from Nagoya This sake has a slightly sweet and robust flavor. It is not so fresh, but has a mildly sharp and clean aftertaste. Overall, it has a calmness that makes it a versatile all-around food sake. This is a good sake for ministry.

Japanese>English

This will also be the first time I have dreamed of a hawk. The first aroma is a modest sweet aroma. In the mouth, it has a rich sweetness like ripe fruit and the umami of rice. It also has a sweet overtone like ripe fruits. It is similar to Chochin, but darker and tastier. I love Nagoya's sake.

Japanese>English

The second drink was a local Nagoya sake, Taka-no-Yume's original, which was recommended by the waitress. I thought it was a good drink for the coming season because it was light and refreshing like a summer sake. 🏝️ By the way, it seems to be an assemblage of nama-shu and hi-ire-shu 🍶.

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 The indescribable sourness peculiar to Ichiki spreads through the mouth, but was it not enough? ⭐️0.5

Japanese>English

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A brand that is no longer in existence, Ippiki. It seems to be refreshing, but comes with a gusto. It's not a sparkling sake, but it has a refreshing tanginess. Interesting sake. Kangiku is now the top sake in Chiba, but Ikki (now Koshi) used to be the best. It is a pity that this brand is no more!

This is the first jacket I've ever seen with shurikens 💠. It's so sharp, it's called "super dry"! I thought it would be pretty grueling, but it was 20 degrees alcohol😇.

Japanese>English

Converted from fruity sake Must be a summer sake, this label But it was cloudy. It was very thick, so I kept the glass half-full. It's crisp and dry, with a hint of sourness because it's a Yamahai sake. Not my favorite genre. I had it as a palate freshener. Sorry! Mifukyu is a sake brewed by the brewery that produces Nikkuro-Tsuchiboshi! It was my first time! (some of the secrets of the brewery's secrets) Ingredients : Sake rice produced in Shiga Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 60 Alcohol content : 15

Japanese>English

The seventh and final sake is Mifuku Mifuku, a sake from Shiga Koka. We close with a fresh taste with a flavor of Yamahai brewing. Thank you very much for the meal.

Today is Valentine's Day!👩‍❤️‍👨 This Sake paired very well with the filet mignon I prepared for my wife. There is a full mouth feel with umami. There is a light smoke flavor and wood. The aftertaste is short.

Sweet, but with a strong sake flavor.

Japanese>English

It has a unique flavor with a hint of sourness and a dry, firm throat. It has a high alcohol content of 18.5 degrees and seems to have been made as a sake that goes well with meat dishes, a flavor I have never tasted before.
