Shaoxing Wine Glue-like Striking

Purchased at the HYOGO SAKE EXPO. The aroma is of aged aroma like Shaoxing wine. The hint of gunpowder-like aroma. I think it is clean and easy to drink for an aged wine. I thought it would be good to drink with fruits and sweets. The acidity is a nice accent. Perhaps because it is a daiginjo, it feels fruity even though it is an aged sake.

Japanese>English

It is an old sake, and its complexity follows behind the freshness of its acidity. It is a dish to be savored slowly without any accompaniments.

Japanese>English

It is a strong, robust, drinkable sake with a lot of country. I buy this sake every year at the Miki City Hardware Festival, and it is one of my favorites.

Sake from a brewery in my hometown. The original sake, which was brewed in 2001 and entered in a sake competition, was stored in ice for 20 years. We were grateful to receive it.

Japanese>English

Today is the day of the Niigata Chuetsu Earthquake, and I took it slow, I was in the mood for some country sake. Takanoi sake at room temperature to warmed sake. Newspaper (Niigata Nippo) Maki The taste is not flashy, but when heated up, it has an orthodox and authentic flavor.

A quick trip to Kyoto, at Honmaguro Ginjo Kuroudo Re-ordered a 3-sake drinking comparison, this time with only sake that was new to me. Takanoi GANKI GINJOKURAUDO We started with "Takanoi" first. Takanoi Special Junmai A clean aroma, a refreshing taste, mild sharpness, and a lingering aftertaste. Mild flavor, similar to "Yukio" 🤔.

This is the first time I've bought bamboo island since the new system was put in place. According to the official website of the Japan Famous Sake Association, the rice is Nihonbare and Yamadanishiki. The lees are submerged and when mixed, it is slightly effervescent and petite. Slightly sweet and bitter. I wonder if it is better to drink it while it has gas? Once the gas is gone, the bitterness will make it hard to drink 🤔. I wonder if it would be sweeter to drink the alcohol by itself?

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023 It is a very crisp, dry, deep-flavored Ajiginjo. The aroma is subtle. The mellowness is more apparent in junmai sake. This is also a good sake. I drank 8 glasses this time and they were all good! There are so many good sake that I can't keep up with them all! It's a happy scream!

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown Slightly pear-like aroma. It has a light shwashiness, and the sweetness is refreshing and light. Is it a summer sake? The umami is also crisp and clean. This is good!

Second souvenir from KazKaz. It is a brand name planned and sold by 7 sake stores in Aomori. Rice used is 100% Hanasoui. The top-tasting aroma is a calm ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is slightly sweet with a strong umami flavor. The aftertaste is reminiscent of classical sake, and is quickly cut by a refreshing acidity and bitterness. It is an orthodox dry sake, but highly satisfying. Thank you for the treat!

Japanese>English

Second bottle I brought to the Lal family New Year's party last night 🍶. Tastes like sake, yet very easy to drink✨ Sasuga Hanasou! It's fruity ✨🍶💠. It's still oishy ❕. I enjoyed it very much.

At a local izakaya just a stone's throw from the brewery 🍶. It was a very good, mellow sake with a very reasonable price. This time at room temperature.

Another bottle bought at a supermarket in Kawagoe. I also bought a bottle that was not hiyaoroshi. After storing it in the fridge, I took a sip. The aroma is mild. The texture has a mild aroma, and the taste has a richness to it. It has a hint of sweetness like apple honey, and becomes dry and sharp. With only one cup of hiyaoroshi left, I thought to myself, "Yes, that's right! Sake tasting! The two are so alike that I can't tell 💦I can tell the difference in taste when I take a sip of air 💦This one has a big umami, and that one is not so different, but a little sweeter. This is hiyaoroshi. ‼️ Hazleyーー‼️ドーン💥 It's interesting and fun to see the difference in taste 😆 I'll be unfazed and diligent 🍶.

Another bottle was opened at the Kizuna Festival. Golden crystal that saw the light of day at Izakaya Shinkansen. Gold Crystal label expressed with a characteristic figure. It is one of my personal favorite labels. The top-tasting aroma has a very classical sake flavor. The mouthfeel has a light umami from a hint of sweetness. First contact is lighter than expected. The finish is again full of sake-like aftertaste, with a mild acidity and a strong bitterness. I had imagined it to be a more mellow and stand-alone sake, but it is considered to be a high performance food sake. During the festival, I served it with tempura and dried scallops that I bought and brought with me, and it was quite good! Thanks for the food!

Japanese>English

Tonight I'm having this one 🍶. I got this on my trip to Fukushima last month! I've been wanting to drink this since I saw it on Izakaya Shinkansen 🍶✨. They are the only sake brewery in Fukushima city😃. Mellow, refreshing, oicy❕. The aroma is slightly fluffy 💠. Slightly crisp but still mild 🌸🍶✨. This is a great one ❕. I'm glad I found you 😆. I also love the fukushima saké💗. It's very tasty.

I wonder if the Daiginjyo is less pushed out these days. We enjoyed it with our meal.

Our annual sake party 😁 today with three of us 🌸. My friend brought me this sake from Naito Brewery in Sobue, Aichi👍. It's very light and easy to drink. It has a dry throat, but not too much acidity, and you can taste the flavor😋. It's a great sake to drink with two great drinkers and it's easy to drink like water😝.

Japanese sake party with a wild rice cake! A toast to the local sake brought by my friend👍. The aroma is subdued, but when you put it in your mouth, the sweetness spreads at once 😋 It's not rich, but the taste is strong. It is a dangerous sake that can be drunk easily😝. I had it with some sashimi and it was delicious. I'm sure you'll agree that sashimi is a must for sake👍.

First Nagoya Night of the Year First sakayu at the hotel after a long time meeting for dinner The rice used was Yumesansui produced in Aichi Prefecture. An orthodox junmai sake with a strong sweetness. It is best to drink it chilled after a meal. It is not too heavy, but I felt it was a little heavy.

Hakone Drink Comparison Set (2) On March 1, after a year-long event, I went on a trip to Hakone as a way of consolation! The local sake was served to compare with Japanese kaiseki. It was my first time to try Hakonezan! This is the spiciest sake in the group. It is a dry ginjo-shu as you might imagine, but it is moderately rich and very good as a mid-meal drink. Of course, it goes well with ingredients as they are, but it also goes well with dishes that have been added, such as those using dashi (Japanese soup stock)!

Japanese>English

This is another brand of sake from the brewery that brews Hakoneyama, a sake made from rice produced in Takao, the name of a local place in the town of Oimachi. I thought it was Mt. The aroma is subdued and the flavor of the rice is refreshing. When paired with food, it is an unpretentious mid-meal sake with a hint of sweetness.

It is a light amber Junmai-shu brewed with the fantastic sake rice "Kinmon Nishiki". The aroma is cemedine...sweet and bitter with a hint of bitterness! It's dry, so it goes well with thickly seasoned food. For beginners, it is not recommended...? I've been drinking it with bonito sashimi with silver skin...

Japanese>English

This is my first brand. I didn't expect much, but it was delicious and a pleasant miscalculation. The acidity is delicious. It is easy to drink. It is like a summer sake. It has a long aftertaste. It was a hit.

Japanese>English

Zankuro Junmai 61 Nama Sake Rating 4.4 Rice: Miyamanishiki grown with reduced use of agricultural chemicals, Polishing ratio: 61%, Alcohol: 16.5°, Yeast: No.11 A mid-meal sake characterized by the refreshing malic acidity of No.11 yeast and the sharp sharpness of its large dry mouthfeel. Dry and sharp. The fresh yet soft umami that can only be achieved with nama-shu spreads out.
