TENJOJI Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku from Okuidumo, Tsuyahime from Shimane Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 17%. This sake was bundled with the February hanpukai. Drinking Tenshuu makes me want to go to Izumo and eat soba noodles😃. The aroma of this one is very distinctive. It has a pleasant smoky aroma. I guess you could call it fragrance 😁.

Japanese>English

Tenshitsu Haru no Tsuki Slightly sparkling Junmai Nigori Nama Shu 720ml Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 18%. I opened a bottle of Tenshitsu that was included in the February hanpukai. It has a very complex flavor. It is fresh but also has a bitter taste, gasiness, and a slight smokiness. It tastes like an adult. Interesting.

Japanese>English

I chose a dry one, thinking it would be lighter. I like Izumo Fuji from Shimane and drink it often, but this one is very good. 17%, a little high in alcohol, so I tasted it slowly, but it has a presence that complements the food. I became a fan.

夏らしくキレがあり爽やか。でもアルコール感強めで満足感があります。

The one I got with a voucher that was included in the tasting coin mess when I tasted at Sasaki Sake Brewery. It is 25%, so it is very drinkable even with soda.

Japanese>English

Purchased as a memento of my trip to Kyoto I tasted many kinds of sake and chose this one. Sourness with a refreshing bitterness in the aftertaste.

Japanese>English

I think I prefer it at room temperature. It goes well with strong Japanese food.

I used to drink Honored Kunimitsu Plum Wine, but this is my first time. It has a clear mouthfeel, but the flavor of lactic acid bacteria comes through. I think it's easy to drink, even for those who don't like traditional sake. I haven't tried it warmed, but it's good at room temperature or chilled.

This is the kind of delicious sake that Yamagata is known for. It has a good sense of balance. It is sweet, spicy, and dances with acidity. Ryu, Yotsu.

Japanese>English

This is a catalog gift item. I chose it because I wanted to try shizuku sake. I've never heard of this brand. It had an elegant and delicate taste like a daiginjo, but it didn't have much character.

Light, refreshing, tasty 钎 Slightly dry, fruity✨. Very delicious❗️ I've been enjoying it very much (^-^)/

Outside drinking. Ordered by the impact of the name. When poured, it smells moist and sweet. The taste is as expected (?). The sweetness is strong. When tasted, it has the flavor of rice. There is a slight astringency in the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is clean, with a watery sensation and a nice clean finish. There is a distinctive sweet aroma. It is a mellow, sweet sake, and you can sense the careful craftsmanship. Later I looked it up and found the word "Toyobai" 😳. I didn't realize it was so 😚.

Pair it with sweet and spicy peppers and it's refreshing, gobble it up. It's a raw sake version of Mohawk Girl, so it's Mohawk Raw Girl 😅 Umi to @ Takadanobaba 20230913

This is Asahi Kiku Arahashiri, a Fukuoka souvenir 🍶. It's in a nice looking bottle, but it seems that during the new sake season, Fukuoka's sake is often served in these stoppered bottles. I thought it was nice because it can be corked tightly so it is easy to reuse. The initial aroma is slightly sweet, like cooked rice. In the mouth, it has a mild sweet flavor with a slight astringency. It finishes with a slight bitterness. The astringency was a bit strong, but the sake was delicious with a calm and full flavor typical of Asahi Kiku ✨.

Japanese>English

It was delicious! I didn't expect it because it was made in Kurume, Kyushu, but it had a strong umami, sweetness, and soft acidity without much ginkou (gin aroma). I had to buy half of the bottle just to get it. Kurume is Seiko Matsuda. Red sweet pea?

The 15th bottle of this year's edition, Sake of the Earth. It was good to drink and got me drunk.

It is a gift from Niigata 🙏. Yukichubai is a classic light and dry wine. but this one seems to be a seasonal summer sake. It is a seasonal summer sake with a refreshing taste🎶. It is slightly sweet and has a nice sharpness! The alcohol content was high, so it was better to drink it on the rocks. It was better to drink it on the rocks👍

Japanese>English

Back in the day, Niigata's Sanbai was an extremely hard-to-find brand. I often visited Niigata Takata on business and was often presented with it. At the time, I had no interest in sake at all and almost never went through with it. Now, in 2021, Koshino-Kanbai is easily available at Aeon. Mine-no-Hakubai is also often seen as Hishiko at local liquor stores. However, Yukinubai is not so easy to find in my hometown. So, I got it on a business trip to Joetsu. I paired it with a taste of spring, firefly squid and broccoli with olive oil. It has a moderate aroma of cemedine or banana. It is sweet. It harmonizes with the sweetness and bitterness of firefly squid and broccoli. Lastly, there is a final bitter taste that is refreshing and delicious in the mouth!

Japanese>English

It is a gift from my brother back home. We drank the rest of the sake at the New Year's party. We had a stable Honjozo and a more beautiful Daiginjo. Both of them were good sake.

Sake brought back from our trip to Niigata Sake recommended by the lady who was selling it. Very gassy 💨 Sake with a strong moromi Dry and crisp 💪. It's a nigori sake, but you can drink it with gusto as a food sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

For my fourth cup, I decided on the "Koshihikari" which caught my attention! The palate is clean and refreshing, but as you taste it, it mellows out a bit with a banana feel. The acidity tightens it up so that it does not interfere with the taste, so it is well-balanced and easy to drink👍.

This is peculiar. I think I'm going to get bad drunk 🤮.
