Today is the first one, Shirakagesen. At first I thought the acidity was too strong, but after the second glass it became normal. It goes well with meat, and it's delicious after all.

I was curious about the label "for advanced drinkers" and bought it. It has a peculiar aroma like an old sake, with a hint of sourness. Thick taste Not easy to drink, but I like it very much.

Smells like walnuts? Gorgeous cemedine, smell of alcohol after some time. Mild mouthfeel, then sweetness like three warm sugar, light pungency, aging aroma, as you swallow, the taste becomes milder, and gradually bitter from sweetness. Alcohol 20%, well 20% is intoxicating.

Japanese>English

This is delicious. I sent a bottle of Yamagata wine to my cousin who lives in Nagoya, and this is my return gift. I'm satisfied with this sake because it has the feeling I like. It's good at room temperature. It rides softly on the tongue with a sweetness that flows easily. I like Halley's Comet.

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 (^-^)/

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 ✨.

This naturist sake is made from pesticide-free Yamada Nishiki produced in Itoshima. It is a clean and crisp sake that does not interfere with the bitterness of char-grilled young ayu fish and the enjoyment of the juicy meat of the adult ayu fish. Rice: 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Fukuoka Prefecture Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 15

Shimane Local Sake Fair Osaka ③. Ichinomiya Sake Brewery of Iwami Ginzan and Rika. I had bought Yukika at Hanshin Department Store in Amagasaki in the past. I found out that it was Mr. Rika, the toji (master brewer), who was standing in the store at that time😅. I tasted the following Iwami Ginzan Special Junmai Hiyoshi Oroshi Rika Junmai Ginjo Kaihatanryu Ichitunya TANE Nama-zake Yukika Sparkling None of them left much of an impression on me, but I thought the Yukika was as tasty as ever. It was sweet and strong, like a strong calpis soda. I would like to try it again because Sugidama-san in Kyoto sells Iwami Ginzan.

(*^^^^^+) Today, my sister sent me 1/5 I got a bottle of Kanbei from Meijo Shuzo 😀. As the label says, it's light and dry. It's a great sake to drink with food. It's a good sake to pair with food 😎Thanks sis✨.

Japanese>English

It is light and dry but slightly sweet and delicious. I can drink this as much as I want😄.

Japanese>English

Sake Brewer : Meijo Shuzo Place of Origin : Toyofuji-cho, Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture Content : 300ml Price : about 450 yen Rice polishing ratio: 73% Alcohol percentage: 13 Pairing : Stir-fried komatsuna and thick fried tofu with aged soybean paste (hot and thick) The aroma is crisp but gorgeous. It has a slightly long bitter taste that is heavy at first and lingers on the palate. It is a small sip, but if you drink it heavily, it is bitter and you may not like it... As soon as it hits your tongue, you feel a little bit of sweetness and a thin lingering bitterness... If you like sake that is crisp and has a short aftertaste... You may not like it... If you want to match it with food, I feel that you have to fight it with tempura and other dishes with strong flavors such as salt or boiled vegetables... If the food is light in flavor... I think this sake might make it hard to taste the food... Personally, I feel it's like shochu (it's a freshly stored sake)... On the other hand, people who enjoy the richness of sweetpotato shochu might enjoy it... Personally, I prefer a refreshing type... Overall rating C (S-D)

This is the first time for me to drink Kikusen (maybe). I am not very good at aluzoe, but this one was tasty and refreshing without a strong alcohol taste. It was my favorite of the three.

Purchased in Toshima-ku, Tokyo♪ Alcohol content@15.0 to 16.0 Sake degree@+6.0 Acidity @ 1.4 Rice used@Yamadanishiki Polishing ratio@60 Personal Recommendation@3.8/5.0 I recommended Sake Cost Sake Brewery to my daughter who was looking for a part-time job at an izakaya after school, but she was told that there was no part-time position available at the restaurant she wanted and they were not hiring, so she decided to go to another Italian bar. I thought she might be able to drink cheaper with the family discount, but alas 😢. Since the last Ryuki was sweet, we wanted to try something a little dry, so we went looking for some Shizuoka sake 🤗. I don't have an image of Shizuoka sake as a modern sake, but I wonder if there is any 😅. Well, I took it out of the fridge and drank it cold 😃. Yes, it's refreshingly dry but surprisingly soft on the palate and easy to drink 😗. I thought this would definitely taste better lukewarm 🍶, so I warmed it up and the mouthfeel became softer and softer 🍶❣️ It is not a sake that has any special characteristics, but the price is reasonable, so it is worth buying 🤭.
