Rice used is Yamadanishiki This sake has been aged for three and a half years. I had kept this sake at a friend's store when Corona first became popular, and I had lost track of the right time to go there. The other day, I finally met it. Although it was protected from ultraviolet rays, it could not withstand the severe temperature changes and had completely "aged". It was a shame, but he kept the store going strong, Thanks for saving it for us when we moved.

It has just the right amount of umami and a refreshing taste. When I drink this summer limited edition sake, I truly feel that summer is good. The "kun" in "kun-drop" is a Chinese character for "earth" and "growth," meaning the earth that makes all things grow. Kun-drop" means a drop from the earth. The more I learned about the meaning, the more delicious it became. Purchased at Yellow Cherry Kappa Country.

Rice used is something from Kasama That's one word for the wonderful ‼️. I feel it's sophisticated and seamless. Full of flavor with a clean aftertaste. The price is high, but the level is also quite high. ‼️

First time to drink a Hokkaido sake 🍶Fresh citrusy aroma? Sweet and bitter on the palate...maybe a little bitter....sharp aftertaste! The aftertaste is good, but... a little bit of a tangy taste? I wonder if it is a characteristic of the sake rice... is it like this? Hmmm... it's a little bitter...

The rice is comet. It is sweeter than the junmai ginjos I have had in the past. After the gentle, fluffy sweetness, the bitterness comes quickly and then converges. It gives the impression of being sweet and bitter. Well, I regret buying Gokotsuru when I had a hard time deciding.

The fourth cup was "Asakayousei"! I was curious about this one, as I have only seen Shiga sake such as "Shichibonjari" and "Shoki Shoki". The aroma is apple-like. The mouthfeel is fresh, with a gaseous and hinted aroma that reminds me of a tank! The sweet and sour taste of green apple and the overflowing flavor is addictive ✨.

Aromatic and slightly dry. It is not spectacular, but you can taste the umami of the rice. It is best paired with dishes with strong flavors, such as yakitori, teriyaki, and chicken nanban, rather than light dishes.

The first Toyoshu in a long time is a pure rice sake brewed with the Yamanokami yeast derived from sasayuri (a kind of lily of the valley) that blooms in the sacred grounds of the Ogami Shrine, a sacred place for sake. If you are a sake drinker in Nara, you must try this 😁. Perhaps it was because I was used to light and fruity junmai sake, but it was alcoholic, not too sweet, and had a firm mouthfeel. But it has a modern feel and is easy to drink. Yamano kami yeast was surprisingly not peculiar 🤔. Thank you for the food 🙏. I think I'll go visit Ookami shrine ⛩ again.

It's finally New Year's Eve! For the first time this year, I was able to participate in "Sake-no-Wa" and it was fun and I learned a lot. Thank you very much😊. Now, we are having a limited edition sake that was just pressed this morning. Fresh, crisp, umami, delicious! It's going to be a good New Year's Eve 😋.

Is this the first Aizan for this brand? The sweet flavor is sustained from the first sip.

The second bottle recommended by the proprietress This sake is smooth with a hint of sweetness. It does not have the flat alcohol taste that is often associated with super dry sake, but has a fruity and robust umami flavor. It is also delicious. ❣️

Rice used is something from Iwate Prefecture and germinated brown rice from Shiwa-machi glutinous rice Classified under the Sake Tax Law as "Other Brewed Sake It is a so-called craft saké, but it is no different from ordinary sake. The fruity sweetness spreads quickly, and the umami is also conveyed clearly. The citrusy bitterness tightens up the whole experience. The lingering aftertaste seems to be slowly fading away. It is not flashy, but it is good for a leisurely sipping. However, 3,000 yen for a four-pack is a bit expensive!

Smells like syrup taste of lactic acidity grape acidity white wine type Frankly, it tastes like the lactic acid in the germinated brown rice is out of control. Tastes like a stopper if you inevitably drink a lot of it. (It was a corner shot, so it might have been oxidized)

I've been curious about Re:vive Kuga from Heiroku Brewery, but I've never had it before. I drank "layer" but this is my first time to try "Re:vive". I wanted to make sake, but I don't have a sake license, so I mixed germinated brown rice with sake and made it as a craft sake. (Brown rice is considered rice and is sake, germinated brown rice is craft sake, I didn't know that 🧐) Gentle sweetness, moderate acidity. Fresh and delicious 😋. Not schwashy, but fresh? Beautiful and tasty, but maybe it's my imagination, a bit subtly different from so called sake? (Can't describe it 🤣) Well, it's good because it tastes good 😆. It's the kind of thing that goes down smoothly.

Store Drinking. HITOGOKICHIKI 100% The color is clear or slightly amber. The aroma is that of rice. When you sip it, you will taste the flavor of rice. It has a dry ALC feel. There is no fruity sweetness, and the taste is stoic. The rice sweetness remains until the end, with a rounded aftertaste. It has the impression of a Junmai Doshin🎯 royal road.

😁 Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 59 Alcohol content: 15 I drank the sake I missed yesterday today. I went to Ueda, so I bought a bottle of Wada Ryutonomizu. It was a delicious hiyaoroshi with a good taste of rice. None of the people I drank with today knew about it. I thought it was pretty famous in my opinion, but... Is that so?

Late night at the diner. The second one is a limited edition sake that is sold only on two days before the brewery opens. This year's bottle is called "Gokuragiri Limited Edition" on the label. This one has a sweet taste of rice. It's different from the earlier Sukkiri, but it's thicker. It's not my favorite, but it's the kind of sake I want to drink a little bit of every day. Yummy, yummy 😋

720ml ¥1,540 I remember drinking it so long ago that I don't remember it at all 😁I looked to buy it at my usual store, but they only sold liqueur almost all the time 🎵. Melon flavor ❗This is a delicious one 😆. It comes in refreshingly crisp and the sweetness is the main ingredient, with a low acidity but not a sticky sweetness, it disappears with a hint of bittersweetness😃. I knew it was good, I had no doubt in my memory 😋.
