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

I have had Taitozan before, but I don't remember much about it, so I bought it for the first time in a while. It has a slightly astringent white wine-like aftertaste with almost no sweetness. I think it is best to drink it with fish dishes, which is a standard white wine. Since it is winter from now on, yellowtail and radish would be delicious. I, of course, drink it only with sake.

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.

Spring Tokaido Sake Brewery Tour (2) Dragon Boat Festival🎏 is Kabuto-chan. The second bottle is Suzukabuto. It is junmai ginjo new sake. It is safe to say that this one went out with a real mission. The rice is Ginbuki, a sake rice from Shiga Prefecture, just like the first bottle, Hatsuzakura. It is served cold. It has a slight yellow hue. The top aroma is very mild. It has a juicy aroma reminiscent of fresh bamboo grass, young dried grapes, and oranges. The mouthfeel is round. From the bluish alcoholiness, the juicy orange aroma and acidity are gently developed with a smooth and robust rice feel. The taste is sharp with a tangy, bitter and pungent flavor. The refreshing acidity typical of junmai ginjo-style sake, the familiar rice flavor, and the sharpness of the aftertaste are all nicely integrated. It is a moderate, not too hard-core food sake, and the more you drink, the more you will want another glass. And if you heat it up The contrast between the plumpness of the freshly cooked rice and the tangy bitterness is again delicious. I would like to try it with mackerel sushi as an entrée.

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.

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 that of ripe fruit. It is similar to Chochin, but darker and tastier. I love Nagoya's sake.

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.

Cowboy bought me this as a souvenir from Niigata! Yay! Yamahai is great! The design is cool too! It's crisp and mellow, and I drank a bottle so fast... I want to drink it again!

It comes with a gusto at first, and both the umami and sourness come into play. Certainly good to drink while washing off the fat from the meat 😀.
