At home. First Tottori. The label is very historical. The aroma is the sake, but when you put it in your mouth, it is gentle. It has a strong alcoholic and dry taste in the nose, a bitter taste in the throat, and a smooth finish. I've heard that it's best served hot, so I think I'll give it a try.

According to the information on the back label, it's recommended to drink it hot or warm, but I had it cold this time. The aroma was as dobroku-like as it looked, but the true nature of the beer was crisp and dry. While rolling it around in your mouth, it has the same dobroku feeling as the image, but the moment you swallow it, it's so dry! It's a gap between the two. Today we had the pleasure of visiting a new restaurant in Esaka, Sake Noodles and Udon Udon Kan. It's a sister restaurant to the popular Kakitsubata, which is just around the corner. I was very impressed with the quality of the food served. The atmosphere and service were great, and the food was all delicious. .......... I remembered that it was still Tuesday, so I left the restaurant with a bowl of udon to finish off my meal.

And the second aged sake is Benten Musume. The aroma is the same as the first one. The mouthfeel is also rich in flavor, but it is lighter than Akishika. The aftertaste is also very similar, with a full-bodied sense of sake, but it ends relatively lightly with a light acidity. The appetizers were duck ham, Matsumae pickles, and pickles, all of which were excellent. Thank you for the meal!

The word "limited" makes me weak 😅. The owner of the liquor store told me that it was very spicy, so I bought it, but when I tried it, I found that it had a fruity taste and a hint of bitterness that balanced it out nicely 😚. I've never tried Tottori sake before, but it's good. I finished it in two days 🤤.

A freshly squeezed sake full of sweetness. However, it does not have the sweetness of amazake. The sweetness lingers in the back of the mouth for a while and then disappears. There is no acidity or miscellaneous flavors, making it a fresh sake. It is a sake to be enjoyed slowly and without snacks.

The mouthfeel is so gentle that it is hard to believe that the wine has been aged for 5 years. It has a crisp umami flavor with a moderate spiciness and astringency on the back end. I felt it had an excellent balance as a food sake. It is a good all-around sake.

A gift from a guy at work😊. It's a clear, easy-drinking, delicious sake 🍶. It's like a lower strength version of Kikusui. It's the type of sake I never buy myself so it's fresh 😊.

This Sake is bold and has a full mouth feel. There is a warm sweetness and is slightly dry. The flavor reminds me of caramel apples with a hint of wood. The finish is long. Refreshing and strong.

The second drink at the Sacred Bar was "Kaguyahime," which is very Kyoto-like. It was fresh and sweet on the palate, so it went better with grilled white onions than sashimi.

Yamamoto Honke had a store at Sendai Mitsukoshi in conjunction with the Kyoto Exhibition. I look forward to Yamamoto Honke's "tarekuchi" every year at this time of the year, but it seems to take about one more week before it is shipped, so I did not get it this year either. The aroma is a fresh ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is fruity, fresh, sweet, and juicy, with a light acidity and bitterness from the aftertaste of alcohol. It has a high quality, classical, and sharp taste, and is very satisfying to drink. Thank you very much!

A "sacred" store found near Nishiki Market in Kyoto. Great cold drink when you are finally able to sit down after a long day of walking 😀. It was slightly carbonated and went down my throat so well I didn't mind the 19% alcohol content 😅. You can't tell the alcohol content in modern sakes. Beautiful construction.

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.

The other day, I saw Kazuhiko Ota drinking Furozumi on TV, and I wanted to drink it for the first time in a while, so my husband bought some at a local liquor store. I wanted to drink it for the first time in a long time, so my husband bought it at a local liquor store. When the bottle is opened, there is a faint aroma of rice. The color is slightly amber. It tastes great cold, but if you warm it up to lukewarm, the corners are removed and the flavor becomes rounder. It has a deep taste with the sweetness of rice. It is also good with strong flavored meals. As the name suggests, it's deliciously warmed!

This sake is made by Shimazaki Shuzo in Nasukarasuyama City, Tochigi Prefecture. Smooth on the tongue and sweet in taste, this is a sake to be drunk slowly.

Smooth texture on the tongue. It is a delicious sake with matured flavor and sweetness. It goes down your throat and has a deep flavor.

It's Sake Day, so we opened a set of aged sake we received. Daiginjo 1 year Almost no sense of maturity There is a little bit of umami, but it is mostly water. Fruity taste comes out as the temperature rises. Junmai Ginjo 5 years Not much difference in the sense of maturity. There seems to be a little bit of a tangy taste due to the junmai nature of the sake, but it's only a slight difference. Daiginjo 10 years The aroma suddenly has a different sense of maturity. It is quite habitual and I personally dislike it It tastes like Shaoxing sake 3.0

2021/06/28 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The design and color of the bottle is very stylish. When you open the bottle, the aroma is like muscat. It's light and fresh in the mouth. You can feel the sweetness of the roundness of the aroma. The more you drink, the more fruity it becomes. This may be a sake for women.

October 7, 2022 Evening drink at home. It was the day of a local festival, so I decided to have something to drink. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a long time. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a while, and opened the bottle. The stylish bottle and label reminded me of wine. The bottle and label are fashionable, but it is made using the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai-Hashiroshi". I heard that it is made by the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai Hashimoto". It is an easy-drinking bottle with a pronounced rice flavor and acidity. It is an easy-drinking bottle. It was delicious with I enjoyed it with manatsuo, maiwashi sashimi, etc.

I had it with mizutaki at a Kyushu restaurant a little distance from my house. It was a little bit thicker than the other dishes, and the collagen in the soup was not poured off but mixed with it to enhance the flavor. I thought it was a type of soup that would enhance the flavor of the rice! The flavor of the rice is very good.

5/10 Sake from the Tsujun Shuzo brewery in Kumamoto Prefecture. Its name is Cicada. The sake is said to be aged in a cool place for a long time, just like cicada larvae in the soil. Kumamoto yeast is used. The taste is almost light and dry. The taste is clean and refreshing. In other words, it is not very assertive. The sense of maturity is subtle. I now wonder if it would have been better to drink it in a wine glass rather than a boar cup.

50% polished rice Dry with a strong attack. The most vivid sensation in the mouth is today. It would be better to drink it by itself, not with food. It has a complex taste with a lot of miscellaneous flavors, so it is a sake to be drunk slowly and for a long time.

I had wanted to drink it for a long time, but the timing was never quite right... The manager said it was his favorite drink in the restaurant! It is a pale yellow color with silver tints and a hint of green. It has a spicy top note with a hint of alcohol, but the aroma is very refreshing, perhaps because of the acidity. When you drink it, the slightly carbonated texture on the tongue is pleasant. There is not much noticeable aroma, but the acidity gives it a refreshing mouthfeel. It may not have much sweetness to begin with, but the acidity helps to make it dry. Despite its dryness, it has a strong flavor, which is probably due to the strong umami that can be tasted from start to finish. Dry sake is usually considered "spicy," but perhaps because of the strong umami, it does not feel too spicy. Interestingly, it is a sake that does not have much bitterness, which may be why it is so light and easy to drink despite its 17% alcohol content. This is seriously very, very good! I wouldn't say it's for everyone, but I think it's a must-try for sake drinkers who like umami!

Low-polished & sake yeast yeast As expected, it has a strong punch! The aftertaste is also bitter and punchy. ‼️ It has a beautiful mouthfeel and a citrusy bitterness at the finish. It is easy to drink with just the right amount of sweetness. It was a unique and delicious sake with many different expressions. ❣️

Rice used is Yamadanishiki After opening the bottle, I wondered if it would have been better if I had let it sit longer. I regret it after opening the bottle. Even as it is, it has a great balance of fruity and powerful, with a clean dry finish. ‼️ However, it seemed to have a lot of potential to improve! It was delicious, but it was a waste of time!
