At home. At the beginning of drinking, I felt that it had a strong alcohol feeling, but as it progressed to two or three glasses, it changed to a milder taste. The aftertaste is refreshing and light, and it is a versatile sake that can be paired with any food.

Japanese>English

Fresh sake with a gorgeous spring breeze 🍶. It is a sake that has a sharpness in addition to the flavor of rice. Tempura of spring vegetables as a side dish.

Japanese>English

A gift from a relative. It's been a long time since I drank koryu and I don't buy daiginjo by myself so it's good😄. It's a little bit luxurious from the stopper😁. It has a fresh and fruity aroma and the attack is rather dry and watery. I'm sure you'll agree that it's a great beer. The taste is as refined as you would expect and does not interfere with the taste of the meal. The official website recommends sashimi of white fish and steamed clams, but it fits the image exactly👍.

Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake 🍶Nao Kumi Tezume Arabashiri✨Gin no Yume🌾. Kochi-Ehime train trip 🚃Day 1 😆 A glass at Kochi Hirome Market 🍶 Kirei, dry. Crisp and dry. The flavor is also strong. Salted bonito tataki🐟 is washed down with a smooth, refreshing finish. Fried Kibinago (dried yellowfin tuna) is also smoothly poured. First time having bonito tataki with salt, but it was very tasty 😋. Bonito Bokchiri @ Kochi Hirome Market 20240516

At home. It is still delicious. The sweetness of the rice can be felt in this sake, and that sweetness is elegant. The taste through the nose is fruity and has a gorgeous impression. It is an excellent choice.

Japanese>English

Smells like rum and cider. Juicy, kudzu flavor, not overpowering, good! The pineapple-like sweetness gives way to a slight effervescence, then a sourness, then a rice flavor, then a slight bitterness, and then a sharp finish. This is good.

Ψ(∇)Ψ🍶🍶🍶🍶 Happy New Year! I'm very happy to be here. I bought it in the summer, but I opened a bottle because it was New Year's Day now. The aroma is not gentle but the flavor is gorgeous in the mouth. This year, I'm aiming to drink sake from all 47 prefectures.

Melon-flavored Banana Cooled Sake Acidity Thick Subtle Umami Complex

Next is Bishu Kotobuki's Kame-no-o + No. 7 Orikarami. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served cold. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a slight acidity, umami, and sweetness. It gradually finishes with a slight astringency that is typical of Kame-no-o. Next, it was served warm. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a slightly robust umami and sweetness. The taste is slightly astringent, which is typical of Kame-no-o, and it gradually fades away. It tastes better when heated up too.

Japanese>English

The first saké I had last time was a clear saké of Yumeginko from Bishu Kotobuki with No.7 yeast. It is a draft sake, but it was stored at room temperature at the store, so we served it as it was. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of banana and ripe melon. In the mouth, the sweetness and umami are again like banana and ripe melon. The flavor profile is even clearer than last time, sweet and delicious 🥰. I think this sake tastes better if you let it sit for a bit after opening. It was delicious 🍶✨

Japanese>English

Finally, we had a bottle of Yumeginko +7 Sumi-shu. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served at room temperature. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a moderate acidity with a hint of sweetness and umami like banana or ripe melon. The flavor profile is clear, probably due to the lack of orikura. Then warmed up. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a sweetness and umami like banana and ripe melon. The moderate acidity adds a nice accent. Both cold and warmed sake were delicious. I think this was also the best of the three. They have 2 types of Sumi-shu and 1 type of Oragara-mi that I haven't tried yet, so I have to go drink them 😋.

It's been a long time since I've had a chance to try it. It is a sake limited to a certain liquor store in Fukuoka. This is very tasty. The aroma is not so much. The taste is juicy and melon-like. There is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste, which is also good. If you come to Fukuoka, I recommend you to buy it 🍶.

Japanese>English

☀️ This is the first time I've seen a drink without a label 🏷️. Instead it has a ribbon🎀 which makes it unique 🤩. There is an initial feeling of alcohol, but it is quickly followed by a sweetness. Soft sweetness with a melon flavor. It can be fluffed up as it is. A sake that tastes as unique as it looks 🍶.

Japanese>English

Leaving the new sake festival, we went to the second restaurant. The second party was at a soba restaurant on the restaurant floor of Amu Plaza Kumamoto, adjacent to the station. This soba restaurant has a great selection of sake 😁. The price is... no way 🤣. The second drink was Shashaemon I had this sake at this restaurant before, but I couldn't remember what it tasted like, so I ordered it. The moment I put it in my mouth, the gorgeous aroma spreads and sweetness, sourness, umami, and spiciness all come at once 😳. This feeling is like no other 😁. You can enjoy this on its own or as a food sake 🥰.

Lightly cloudy with a hint of sweetness. It has a gorgeous aroma that can only be achieved with aleso. The easy-to-drink aftertaste cuts through easily. The alcohol content is high at 18%. Sake rice is Gohyakumangoku, and the rice polishing ratio is 65%.

Japanese>English

Summer Shibori! Slight amber color It has a strong alcohol feeling. It has a lot of punch! It's a sake like Fukui Prefecture. It's delicious.

Japanese>English

The aroma is subdued❓. When you drink it, it is faintly melon 🍈😊. The sweetness is moderate, not too spicy and smooth❗️ It's an aluzoe, but it's not too alcoholic and it's gentle 👍 but it's too gentle and it's not enough🤔. I've heard that it's recommended to drink it warmed up, so I'm going to try that next time❗️Overall, it was a light and easy to drink delicious sake😊.

At home. First Naraman. Fruity, sweet and fizzy. It has a slightly crisp feeling on the throat, and it goes down smoothly. It is easy to drink on a hot day and tastes great. I would like to see if there is a change in taste after the second day.

Japanese>English

٩٩٩@🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we opened a bottle of Naraman's Sake Mirai😃. Can't really detect the aroma 🤔. It has a hint of green apple 🍏? Muscat 🍇? What kind of fruitiness😊Beautiful flavor and crisp sweetness😚Great crispness 😘This is a delicious sake that would go well with any meal 🥳.

Japanese>English

It is a juice-like sake with plenty of nigori (nigori) and a shwashy taste, allowing you to enjoy the taste of rice. Serve with sashimi

The 2nd meeting of Kansai Off-line Meeting Year-End Party ✌️. Around this time, tables were filled with Hormone Yakisoba is delivered one after another 🤣. And Shirokuma sake 🐻❄️! It's a light cloudy sake. Aroma is fruity but slightly dry ❄️. Easy to drink even when chatting easy to drink and easy to drink 😋.

Shirokuma Shirokuma - Winter light nigori - 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol: 16%. I opened a bottle of Hatsuzakura because my wife said it was too strong. It is soft and a little bit sweet. It is very different from the other two bottles that were made with a cloudy rice that looked like porridge. I would like to drink the animal series throughout the year 😊.

Sweet aroma. Personally, I like to enjoy it with a bowl of rice and a bowl of tsumami after eating a bowl of rice.

☀️ Masamune hunters go today🍶. I found an undrinkable Masamune at "TABI BAR & CAFE SUZUVEL" 😆. It is a Masamune brewed by Obata Shuzo, famous for Manotsuru. It has a mineral aroma 😳. Clean herbal mouthfeel 🌿. The aroma is so rich that the sensation of sake fades 🫥. Rice flavor🌾 masks the sweetness and acidity, and the ginjo aroma stimulates the nose. It leaves a slight bitterness and astringency in the aftertaste🙄. It was a new drinking experience with a unique flavor 🤗. How cool to "speak without speaking" 🤩. I thought I should come up with a catchphrase like "Nice Masamune without talking about it" ❓🤣. Nice Masamune👍

Japanese>English

Finally opened a bottle of sake I bought in Otaru the year before last. It is delicious with a soft, sweet mouthfeel, followed by a beautiful acidity that leaves a clean aftertaste of umami and acidity.
