Tomiikiku's local sake ministry️ popular at Haneya. This sake is available in supermarkets😊. The traditional method of production is the same as that of Haneya. Different tastes with different vectors 😋. This sake is characterized by sweetness and umami, not dryness. The common feature is a powdery taste like Kamishinko. It's not always available and not always cheap. I've been through it all along😅lol

Japanese>English

As expected! Apparently it's only available at Seven. 300ml costs about 700 yen. It's shocking that this can be found in a convenience store! It's juicy, refreshing, and slightly sizzling. It's not alcoholic, and it's gone in a flash!

Japanese>English

It's not as good as the Haneya award-winning sake I drank the other day. but the sweetness and elegant taste was similar😄. It was delicious and I drank it at a good pace.

7 points (wife: 6.5 points) Ingredients : rice (domestic rice), rice malt, brewing alcohol Sake meter : ±0 Alcohol percentage : 15 Acidity : 1.2 Rice polishing ratio: 65 Amino acidity: 1.6 Yeast: Kumamoto yeast (Kyokai No. 9) Store Hakata Motsu Nabe YAMAYA Sapporo Ekimae Dori Store Slightly apple-like aroma on the top. The same mild aroma as the first sip, the firm umami of rice spreads gradually with a plump sweetness and fine acidity, and is quickly quenched by the spiciness of the alcohol and a moderate bitterness. While the umami of the rice is firm, the dryness of the alcohol in the latter half makes it easy to drink. This sake has a somewhat classical impression. It is better to drink it with a meal than on its own. It goes well with motsu nabe and cod roe dishes.

Japanese>English

I bought it in Kumamoto during my Shikoku - Kyushu - Kinki trip last year. It was a brand I wanted to try at least once, and I was so happy that I let it sit for more than a year. When I opened the bottle and poured it, it smelled like honey and custard. The mouthfeel is moist and sweet. It has a savory, caramel-like flavor and a balance of sweet and sour astringency. It is so delicious that you can't help but smile! The full-bodied sweetness and bitter astringency in the aftertaste. The taste is not too strong, but has a high level of quality, and is very similar to a pudding! I will never forget the delicious sake, ramen and Kumamoto Castle, even if it was only for a short time. I hope to visit again someday👍.

Japanese>English

I have had a little Mutsu Hassen, but Mutsu Otokoyama is completely new to me! A while ago, I had the impression that Mutsu Hassen lost all its flavor after the second day, but recently it has been able to keep its flavor quite well. What do you think of Mutsu Otokoyama? The aroma is a botanical scent similar to that of grass or earth, but only slightly. But when you take a sip, you will be surprised! It has a gorgeous capsule-like aroma similar to that of Mutsu Hassen! I don't think I've ever experienced such an aroma with such a strong standing aroma! The taste is definitely less sweet, but has a good umami. The taste is certainly not too sweet, but it has a good umami flavor, and yet it has a gorgeous overtone. It is dry, but popular, like a "Sanjyo," "EXILE," or "Ishihara Gundan"? Something like that. I don't know if the aroma has calmed down or if the taste has mellowed, but it is easier to drink and tastes even better from the second day! It's definitely dry, this one! It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a sharp dry taste! This is the kind of delicious sake that goes down so smoothly that you find yourself drinking it all up.

Japanese>English

Sweet and dry drink comparison 🍶✨✨✨. I went to Urahasen last year. This year I'm going to Uraotosan😁😁. Dry and refreshing It is a good place to enjoy a meal. Personally Urahasen for sake alone 🍶. For pairing, I'd go for Ura Otokoyama I guess 😊🍶🍶.

This year, I also enjoyed Tenranzan, which shows the characteristics of the brewery. The Koshi has a fruity aroma...sweet...a touch of bubbles, slight foam, and freshness. I'd like to drink it again next year...

Japanese>English

At home. My first Koshi, recently received from a friend: ‼️ It has a gorgeous aroma, and in the mouth it has a fresh, bubbly, fizzy feeling. It was easy to drink with a refreshing, sweet and sour taste.

Japanese>English

Smells like oil clay and green apple. Peach syrup and slight effervescence, with a hint of rice flavor, a little sourness, and a little bitterness. The initial impact of sweetness is followed by spiciness. It permeates the palate. It is delicious. I want to go to the brewery to buy it directly!

It's been a while since I've had it, but it's still my favorite flavor. It's rich and fruity, but the rice flavor is still there, and there's no bitter aftertaste. I bought a four-pack bottle, but I'm sure the one-pack bottle will be gone soon.

It was quite hearty and delicious. It was also very sweet and flavorful. ‼️ It was the kind of sake that would go well with fried food!

Immediately after opening the bottle, it was dry and dry, perhaps due to the 17% alcohol content. Then, after leaving it in the refrigerator for about 5 days due to a business trip, the taste changed drastically! There is almost no aroma, but it has turned into a crisp, sweet and delicious sake. There are not many sakes that have changed in taste like this.

Japanese>English

I drank it last year and enjoyed it so much I bought it again. Personally, it is my favorite new sake along with "Akagisan"✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is crisp and gorgeous, like pears. The mouthfeel is light and immediately afterwards there is a solid gassy feeling. It's as shwashy as a carbonated beverage! Dry and clean on the palate, with pear and green apple flavors that are gorgeous and fresh. There is a hint of sweetness, so it is not only dry, but also well balanced. The astringent taste comes in the last half of the bottle and finishes it all off, so it is a delicious wine with a perfect ending! The sun is setting later and later, and we can feel the approach of spring. It's still early, but I'm looking forward to this year's spring sakes!

(˶ᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought a bottle of Hakuryu today on the recommendation of the lady at my regular liquor store 😀 She said it was freshly arrived ✨. After opening the bottle, the aroma is mellow 😘the mouthfeel is fresh 😊swishy and juicy rice🌾 flavor 🥰 mild sweetness and acidity😚 nice 😋. It is a delicious sake with the energy of a new sake 🥳.

Japanese>English

( 'ч')🍶🍶🍶🍶´- I drank this Hakuryu before the remote New Year's party 😀. It was bottled on the morning of 2/3 and opened on the evening of 2/4 🌇😚It's probably a Risshun morning pressing, but the label is different from everyone else's 🤔. The bottle was opened with a light puff 😘It has a muscat aroma and a smooth, fresh mouthfeel😊The acidity is moderate and it has a nice gentle sweetness and umami 😘It was a delicious sake 🥳.

Every year I look forward to the Risshun morning pressing... this year, I'm going to enjoy a bottle of TENRANZAN! When the bottle is opened, it has a pleasant fruity aroma...freshly pressed, lightly cloudy, and fresh because it is freshly pressed...the balance of sweet and bitter is unstable, with a certain sharpness...but the aftertaste is crisp! Delicious!

Japanese>English

It has a fresh taste and the alcohol and presence that only original sake can provide.

Japanese>English

At the beginning of the New Year, I enjoy the local sake 🍶Tenranzan Hatsu Shibori (first pressing), which I received as a gift, and since it is an ale-added, honjozo sake, it is more of a food sake than a straight sake...fresh as it is raw...my favorite horse sashimi and oseki (New Year) as a snack.... Enjoying the New Year's Day with my favorite horse sashimi and oshibushi....

Tokyo's local sake. Trial 300ml bottle. The aroma is unexpectedly fruity, and the mouthfeel is sweet and bitter. Fresh, light, and refreshing? It is easy to drink without any habits. It's quite tasty...I guess it's like a light and delicious sake...I didn't know there was such a Junmai-shu in Tokyo...

Japanese>English

Rice used: Akebono from Okayama Prefecture, Gohyakumangoku from Niigata Prefecture, Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture This is a new product from a local liquor store. I thought it was a Toyama sake, but it turned out to be an Edo sake. The acidity is strong, and there is a refreshing summery flavor. The bitter and spicy aftertaste is also good. The overall balance is not bad. Sake from Tokyo is not to be underestimated ❗️

Japanese>English

Chiyotsuru, a local sake from Akiruno City, Tokyo. The label is very flashy. The aroma is a bit rummy. The taste is not too sweet and refreshing, but it has a strong aftertaste with a strong sake flavor.
