Translated by 🍶🍶🍶🍶 The aroma is mild. When you drink it, you will feel a little fern and then clear🙆 It is delicious and easy to drink.

Japanese>English

This is my first time to drink sake from this brewery. It's good.

Japanese>English

It is brewed with 90% polished Yamada-Nishiki from Akita Prefecture and low rice polishing 🍶 It is clear and has a Jungin class finish without any tang. The aroma is fruity with hints of muscat, and the balance of sweetness, spiciness, and crispness is good.

I've had Kanazawa-ya from the same brewery at an outing, but this is my first time drinking it. I had never heard of rice called "Takaneminori" before. It has a fresh aroma with a hint of cemedine. The impression is that it fades out after a pause from the refreshing feeling, followed by a gutsy sweet flavor. It is a new sake, but it has a strong umami.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ Sweet ripeness. It's good with a slight old wine feel.

Melon-like aroma. It has an elegant sweetness and fresh acidity. It is a perfect taste for summer. The sake rice is Matsuyama-Mitsui from Ehime prefecture (I've never had it before). The rice polishing ratio is 60%.

Japanese>English

This sake was entered in a sake competition. Aroma is enhanced by alcoholic sake, The aroma is heightened by al sozo, and the flavor of juicy rice is delicious. It is a bottle to be savored carefully on its own, but it is surely easy to pair with meals as well, It is sure to go well with meals. The alcohol content is high, between 17 and 18 degrees. Sake rice is Hyogo Yamadanishiki, and the rice polishing ratio is 40%.

Japanese>English

At home. I went to Osaka and bought a bottle of Kochi Sake, which I immediately enjoyed. It has almost no aroma, a little bit of alcohol, and a young melon aroma in the nose when you put it in your mouth. It was light and easy to drink. We both drank it up and sunk into the water. Oh no, I have to work tomorrow...

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku and Nihonbare. If I had to describe it in one word, I would say it's "Omnivorous Japanese Sake Partridge". It has an old-fashioned flavor and an aged feeling like a hiyaoroshi. Spicy and sweet in equal measure, with a long finish. It's a sake that should be served warm. By the way, it's "Hiyaoroshi", but it's shipped all year round.

Japanese>English

I learned of the existence of this sake through non non's post. It was a little difficult to go there because you can only buy it at the direct sales place which is open only on weekdays.... It was a nice homey sake brewery 😊. It was limited to 100 bottles and they were the last 3 bottles. It's shwashy, sweet and sour. It may be a daiginjo, but it doesn't taste like yamahai and is easy to drink.

(*∇￣)ノ🍶🍶🍶🍶 It's been a long time since I had this sake. It is a refreshing and crisp summer sake. It tastes and smells slightly like a peach🤔. It was a fruity and delicious sake 😀.

Japanese>English

(Translated from original in Japanese by 🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we had Sou Yuu for the first time in a long time 😀. I bought it because I was attracted by Soueup's sake future 🥰. The aroma is mild and refreshing 😙The taste on the palate is slightly fruity with beautiful acidity and sweetness 😚 The taste is a bit bitter at the end and disappears 😊I found it to be a refreshing and cohesive sake 🥰.

Japanese>English

Refreshing, refreshing, oicy❕. Fruity🌸🍶✨ I enjoy it very much.

I wanted to drink Fukuoka's Hohokekyo A local store started carrying it, so I bought it right away 😆. I started with the summer sake Inabikari, which has a fresh melon-like fruitiness and flavor 😋. It has a unique taste that is different from other fruity sakes. It's also refreshing and easy to drink, just like a summer sake 😙. I can't wait to try the other Uguisu as well!

Japanese>English

Refreshing, crisp, dry 🍶. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a slight fluffiness and crispness ✨. When you swallow it, you will feel a strong sensation in the back of your throat It is a feeling that lingers in the back of the throat after swallowing 🍶. It's delicious.

Sweet aroma. Fresh and sweeter than expected. Unique sweetness like candy. Unique but interesting and delicious. The sweetness is like a floppy candy. More fruity than I expected, too. I think the Asahi Nikki Jusui Brewing I drank in the past also had a unique sweetness.

Japanese>English

Sakemonogatari in Kansai(*) It is a hiyaoroshi of honjozo with a slightly sweet taste and a sense of grain! It is well balanced, probably because it is a honjozo. I would definitely like to drink it with an appetizer! This year, we are only participating in outdoor events because we are still afraid of the new koro, but I think it is very nice to drink under the blue sky!

I thought it would be dry, but it also has a sweet and tasty taste. The color is quite yellow, and I felt it was very robust. It seems to go well with rich snacks rather than sashimi. It was quite heavy for a sake beginner.

When I went to Kobe Kita Aeon today, Daimon Shuzo was there. I heard that it was brewed with Gohyakumangoku (five hundred million stone), so I decided to try it. This is my second sake from Osaka. My favorite robust dry sake. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

It has a very smooth mouthfeel and a refreshing sweetness, and comes in like delicious water. The delicious taste of rice spreads in the mouth, and a refreshing aroma escapes from the nose. Just the right amount of dryness You can enjoy the change of taste in your mouth.

The 8th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower⑰. Rikyubai] booth in Osaka. Rikyubai Katanogahara Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-nara Sake. It is quite rich, sweet and delicious. Personally, I like it.

There are only two sake rice study groups left. I've been posting them chippy-chippy, so my notes and my memory are no longer connected. But there is no doubt that they were delicious. The ninth bottle was Kami no Ho from Mie Prefecture. The first bottle was a Saku no Kami no Hoho, which got me hooked on sake rice, but it tasted completely different. The aroma is banana, I guess. It has a slightly sweet taste with a refreshing dryness from the microbubbles. It goes on and on... a never-ending type of sake. The next post should be the last in this study of sake rice.

Japanese>English

Special Junmai Nigori Nama-zake🍶Kami-no-ho🌾 from Mie Prefecture. Seme smell, fresh✨, a little schwag. Sour and spicy. Mustardy 🙄 according to my wife. When paired with the koji-marinated squid (🦑), it takes the edge off and cozies up to you. The power of koji is amazing 😆. Looks like a new brand to be born in spring 2023. Umi to @ Takadanobaba 20230503

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ It has sourness and a little bit of miscellaneous taste or bitterness, then comes the sweetness or umami of nigori. It has a bitter, youthful taste that goes well with spring wild vegetables. The sweetness that comes afterwards is also youthful.
