This is another Michinoku favorite, Fukushi Shiboritate nama-shu, new rice, new sake. It has a fruity aroma with a hint of fruitiness. It has a bit of sweetness, but the bitterness finishes it off, making it a delicious sake that you will never get tired of drinking.

This is Junmai-shu (Junmai sake) test brew COCOROMI from Fukushi Shuzo. It is made with white malted rice, so it is sweet and sour. It is best when drunk cold on a hot day 😋.

bonus🍶 Delicious Hamachidori with Sashimi We had it with 🥒🧂, spinach and enokitake mushrooms because we were full 😋. As expected in the season of year-end parties: ‼️ The stores were so crowded and the ones I knew were temporarily closed everywhere, so I walked around🐈⸒⸒⸒⸒🐾🐾 Tired of walking around, we took a break at a restaurant we passed by. Although there were not many kinds of Sake, they arranged some Tsumami for us even if they were not on the menu. Sweet and spicy fried cockerel 🐔. The kotteri taste makes Hamachidori even spicier ( °◊° )ho

Junmai 🍶 fresh stored sake✨ Crisp and dry 😳. Sake of the sea 🏖. Goes well with the sea squirt I bought as a souvenir at San San Minamisanriku Roadside Station. You can also taste the sweetness. The octopus also had a lot of flavor. Purchased at San San Sanriku Roadside Station.

It tastes like a ginjo sake. It's not fruity, but it tastes like water.

Rice used is something from Kyushu It was sent together with eel as a hometown tax return gift from Isahaya City❗️. It is a clear and dry sake with good sharpness ‼️. The sweetness is just a hint and goes well with eel. I was curious about the sake brewery that has the same name as Okinawa "Reimei", but I see they are related. It is interesting to see how many things are connected in this industry.

I got this on a trip to Nagasaki last year. I will have it while thinking back to the delicious Turkish rice and Sara Udon noodles 🤤. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is sweet and fluffy, like pudding or custard. The aroma is gentle and soothing. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky, but as the aroma suggests, it has a pudding-like flavor and a moist sweetness that fills the mouth 🍮. On the other hand, it also has a slightly tangy and pungent acidity that gives it a lightness, so it has a good balance of depth of flavor and a sharpness that goes down your throat👍. In the latter half of the bottle, the astringent taste also comes out, so the flavor can be felt as caramelized. There are also the standard "Yokoyama Goju" and "Rokujyosu", and I remember that I had a lot of trouble finding a variety at the Nagasaki airport. I also drank Nagasaki sake several times, and it seems to me that the level of sake is as high as that of shochu 😌.

The picture on the label is Mutsugorouno from Ariake Sea 😅 Paired with pickled sardines with sesame vinegar. It's also excellent 🎉. KUITTO@Yono 20230819

Arrival at today's inn. We will have a yakimugi bento (barley lunch box) bought at Tosu station on the way to the hotel! When the bottle is opened, it has a pudding-like aroma. It has a mild, pudding or custard-like flavor, just like the standing aroma, and the soft, round sweetness is really pleasant! The tanginess of the brewing alcohol can be felt directly afterwards, but it can be enjoyed with a good balance! I couldn't distinguish it from the one-cup sake for a moment, but it is a fine Saga sake.

Japanese>English

Drinking Past, Drinking Home November finally arrived! The label of Mutsugoro in the shape of Saga Prefecture is unique 😊. It was a bit chilly that day, so I had it at room temperature! The aroma is grain-derived flavor and acidity. On the palate Surprisingly sweet! There is enough umami and acidity, and the bitterness that comes out after a while is moderate. And the lingering aftertaste is short and finishes quickly... It's delicious 👍

Lid is stiff. Thin lactic acidity, slightly sweet fruit-like smell. Lemon and plum-like acidity emerges from the thin rice mouthfeel, finishing with rice-like flavor acidity and a hint of sweetness. Delicious. It is refreshing and easy to drink. The lower the temperature, the more refreshing it is.

I'm opening another bottle today😍. My first Miyazaki sake. Everyone says Miyazaki is hard to get, so I popped in 🤣 I ordered it with Jidori Koko 👍. It's a bit sweet, but not too sweet. It has a modern umami taste, similar to a brand I've had before like Tsushima-ya 😋 It's quite refreshing and the sharpness disappears quickly 😋 It seems to be the only brewery in Miyazaki that specializes in sake 😋 It's delicious - thanks for making sake 😂.

Japanese>English

★★★☆☆

Scoring: ☆☆☆☆ Miyazaki's only sake brewery specializing in sake, Chitoku Shuzo. It has a mild aroma with a good sweetness 😄. Refreshing drink with little lingering aftertaste. 😋 A lightly flavored umami type, or perhaps an 🏠. Not much umami or bitterness lingering on the tongue. Easy to drink but needs one more punch😅. It has an old fashioned taste but with a modern drinking style😋. Quite a tasty sake😋. Tonight I'm having seafood nabe with oysters, cod and scallops 🎵👍

Oh! It's delicious. This sake is recommended by Kado-ya Sake Shop, which has been a great help to us. It's raw sake, but it doesn't have a sticky aftertaste. It's a raw sake, but it doesn't have a stubborn aftertaste, so you'll find yourself saying, "Mo~a glass! Today is still Tuesday....

I've always been curious about the brand ❗️ Finally got around to drinking it😊. The aroma is subdued: ❗️ The sweetness is just a hint of sweetness. It has a good flavor of rice when it is on the lees 😄. The taste is silky and clean, probably due to the use of Koshihikari rice. The taste is silky and refreshing. ❗️ There is also a sense of gas and even after a few days, it still tingles 😆. It is a very nice wine. As it says on the label, it is a very delicious sake that goes well with any meal. It's a very tasty sake that goes well with any meal as it says on the label 👍 I would like to try other sake as well: ‼️
