Chochin purchased in Hamamatsu last month. It was my first brand 🔰. It was also my first time to drink sake from Aichi even though we are neighboring prefectures 😓. When poured into a glass, it looks thick and smooth. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and satisfying. It's a mellow umami-kuchi type 🎶 with a good kick from the acidity, so it's very easy to drink. It is not hard to drink because it has a nice sharpness with acidity. It is not difficult to drink.

The strength of aged sake and smooth mouthfeel. The more you drink it, the sweeter it gets as the days go by. Junmai Daiginjo made from 30% polished Yamada Nishiki. It is a blend of 30% polished Yamadanishiki and more than 5 years old Nakadori. It is indeed the best of Gikyo.

It's a dry and crisp junmai sake with a very high alcohol content of 18 to 19 degrees. It's not for beginners...but I think it's good 😋. I've been drinking it with octopus sashimi on the side.

It has a subtle ginjo aroma and a smooth dry taste 😚 It has a delicious taste of rice with no harshness and a clean aftertaste 😊I felt it was the perfect sake for a mealtime drink😇.

The first sip is unexpected. The taste is clean and refreshing. But when you take your time to taste it, you will realize that it is the Etsukaijin's strong and complex flavor that sells it. Etsukaijin is known for its powerful and complex flavors. You can taste the robust umami.
Japanese

This is my first time drinking Etsukaijin. As the label clearly states. Sake degree +10 degrees, alcohol level is around 18 degrees. It has a thick and rich taste. It is well-balanced with a touch of sharpness. It is a brand that I would like to follow for a while. In order to conquer the whole country This is one of the bottles that I chose while hesitating in Kagawa prefecture which was empty. If I hadn't been working at Sake no Wa I'm sure I would never have drunk it. I really appreciate it.

Niigata sake is often thought of as light and dry, but this "Tsururei," which I drank before as a gift, is light and umami (light and umami) 😋♪ It has a slight aroma like Yamada Nishiki...you can taste the rice flavor 🍶♪ Excellent as a food sake 🍶! Niigata sake is evolving and deepening. Delicious!

The other day, I saw Kazuhiko Ota drinking Furozumi on TV, and I wanted to drink it for the first time in a while, so my husband bought some at a local liquor store. I wanted to drink it for the first time in a long time, so my husband bought it at a local liquor store. When the bottle is opened, there is a faint aroma of rice. The color is slightly amber. It tastes great cold, but if you warm it up to lukewarm, the corners are removed and the flavor becomes rounder. It has a deep taste with the sweetness of rice. It is also good with strong flavored meals. As the name suggests, it's deliciously warmed!

(**Ohmigosh*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I got a bottle of Sogen, a local sake 😀 I bought it because it was at a liquor store I hadn't been to in a while✋It doesn't have much aroma, but when you drink it, it has a good balance of sourness and umami, with a concentrated flavor. It is slightly dry and has a nice sharpness so you won't get tired of drinking it 🤔It is a delicious sake, almost like a first squeezed raw sake 😚.

Drink and cheer 📣✊! I received a bottle of sake from Sogen Sake Brewery, which was severely damaged by the Noto Peninsula earthquake 😀 I drink this sake often and have memories of going to the brewery last year to buy Kiri sake 😥 I hope they will resume sake production soon. The aroma has a slight ginjo aroma 😊. On the palate, it has a rich rice🌾 flavor, a gentle sweetness, a strong richness/taste, and a good cut 😚👍It has a lingering and spicy taste that is perfect 😋. Stable Sogen is a delicious sake no matter what time of day you drink it ✨.

😊. I had some of the sake that was sent to the owner of the inn. It was my first time to try Kurosawa rice Yamada Nishiki. It has a delicious acidity that makes it easy to drink, so I was happy to have some of it. I think I may have drunk too much 💦.

 ̄∇ ̄* Isuzu🍶🍶🍶🍶 This is a sake from our neighboring prefecture of Toyama✨. The aroma is quite mild, but when you put it in your mouth, the acidity comes from the soft rice flavor, and then it quickly kicks in, like a well-balanced and delicious sake😊.

The aroma is subdued. ❗️ The taste is very umami 👍. The aftertaste is clean and you won't get tired of drinking it. It's a sake that you can keep drinking 😅. It's not a modern taste, but it's a perfect food sake type 😅❗️ I paired it with my favorite mackerel sushi from Kyoto. It went great with my favorite mackerel sushi from Kyoto 👍. No wonder it is popular in restaurants in Tokyo these days. ❗️

A friend of mine said that if he had come all the way to Toyama, he would have had a variety of both Katsikoma and Haneya, but Hayashi had never had them. We compared two types of sake rice, Gohyakumangoku and Dewanosato. Both were to his liking, but the Dewa-no-sato was more acidic and better. I recommended it to him and told him that Koyama Shoten also sold it 😄.

Not much aroma. Slightly yellowish. The sake is junmai sake, so you would expect it to be robust, but it has a light mouthfeel. The light sweetness and acidity are pleasant. It is only 500 ml, so it ran out quickly. I wonder if I should throw it away or reuse it after drinking out of the Italian bottle every time. I'm a poor person, aren't I?
