I saw it on a liquor store's installment and was completely unfamiliar with the brand, so I searched for it on Sake no Wa and found that Greissinger19 was drinking it, so I bought it. Strong gasiness. Dry, clean and sweet. Cider-like with peach and lychee flavors. Lightly sweet as written. The acidity is beautiful and the bitterness at the end is pleasant. A better sake than expected.

Japanese>English

The Osato Sake Brewery is located in Kama City, Fukuoka Prefecture. I didn't know about this place until I came to Fukuzo. I checked and there is a Kanbokuto Brewery nearby ✨. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a refreshing acidity and juicy sweetness typical of white malted rice. It is followed by a slight astringency that finishes it off. The refreshing acidity is quite delicious.

Sweet aroma and fruity flavor with a robust alcohol 🍶. I personally recommend room temperature 3.5 stars

The last sake I purchased on my GW Niigata trip. I opened Hishiko. As stated on the label, it had a mellow sweet sake quality that brought out the aroma of the yeast, the umami of the rice, and a beautiful sweetness. It has a clean aftertaste, making it an excellent choice as a mealtime sake. I would like to try it again on my wonderful trip to Niigata.

Japanese>English

( ´´call me´´)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I got my first bottle of Hishiko 😋. The lady at the liquor store I always go to recommended it to me 😚. The aroma is fresh and gorgeous ginjo aroma 😊The aroma is round, clean, sweet and delicious 🤤The taste is light with a clean and crisp aftertaste that you will never get tired of 😘. This is the first time I've had this sake and it's delicious ✨🥳🥳.

Sweet, acidic aroma of pear juice, which is not found in sake. The sweetness and acidity of the fruit juice is felt when drinking, followed by the umami of rice and a hint of bitterness. Alcoholic nose. The juice lingers as an aftertaste. This is the first time I bought a craft saké, and it is very interesting!

The aroma is light and easy to drink. The aftertaste is clean but not harsh. ☆☆☆☆☆

😁. We were here for snow fencing at a ski lodge that we take care of in the winter. We will work a little in the morning, relax at Nagano station and go home. I will ask for a sake tasting set ☺️. The rightmost one is today's sake, Kisoji hiyaoroshi. The aroma is very strong and the taste is stable. You can tell how delicious the rice is. Delicious. Now, I'm going home to buy Gokotsuru. My back hurts from carrying so much stuff with bad posture💦.

The third group of the Sake Rice and Yeast Association is Gintome and Yuko's Idea from Iwate Prefecture. Iwate is often named after the pure-heartedness of the Tohoku region or after Kenji Miyazawa, and the rice is Gintome, which is a Gin user. Yuko, the yeast, seems to be named after the developer, Ms. Yuko Yamashita of the Iwate Prefectural Industrial Technology Center. It is a clear, dry sake. Sake from Iwate is interesting in many ways. To be continued.

We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/.

The third drink outside is Honkin😆. Dry Taichi Clear and dry, with a hint of sweetness and bitterness. It was perfect as a sake for a meal with a nice sharp taste.

Japanese>English

Honkin Normal Sake Yellow Label 1,800ml Alcohol added sake, koji rice 60%, kake rice 70%. This was purchased when we tasted it at the brewery last November. After six months had passed, the umami flavor seemed to have taken over. I think it was more smooth when it was first shipped. It was stored in a hallway with a refrigerator pan, so we will enjoy it before it gets too hot. I think I like it better when it returns to room temperature than when it is cold.

Japanese>English

As the name suggests, it is characterized by its clear acidity. From the moment you put it in your mouth to the last lingering taste, it has a beautiful sourness and freshness, and the sweetness does not interfere with the taste, which is very delicious. You can't go wrong with any of Nagano's sakes, so you can't help but want to buy it.

Sasasande - I'm still in the sasandei. A trophy of the Niigata expedition. Surprisingly, it tastes like a summer sake with a strong acidity. It is said to be made from 100% Kame-no-o with a 65% rice polishing ratio. I wonder if anyone can guess the type of rice by the masking. Someday I would like to say, "Oh, this is Omachi"...

Japanese>English

Purchased at Ponshukan. It has a cute design that does not look like a cup of sake. The sake is brewed with four varieties of rice produced by four farmers in the Nishigama district, located in the far west of Niigata Prefecture. So that's what the grains of rice on the label mean. That makes sense. The sake was served cold in the cold sake corner at the store, so I chilled it well at home. It has a well-balanced taste, not too sweet or dry. It is easy to drink and delicious. Niigata's cup sake has a huge variety and high quality.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Gohyakumangoku The acidity is effective, and the umami flavor is penetrating. It has been a long time since this sake had the impact of a sake made from a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast.

Hitogochi rice is used. I got the impression that the freshness and fruity sweet/umami taste was accented by a slight bitterness. I think I prefer the Misuzu Junmai Ginjo I drank before, which has a stronger sweet/fruity flavor. I think it gets sweeter and better after a longer time than when it is freshly opened.

Japanese>English

At the usual place, in the usual way. Dry chilled sake, refreshing and easy to drink. It was delicious!

Miyamanishiki 49% polished rice. Fruity aroma like apples. When you drink it, it is mild and refreshingly sweet and spicy. Unlike the impression on the label, it has a modern taste.
