Chiyoroku given to me by a friend. It's my first time 🙌 It's a junmai daiginjo, but it's so refreshing and easy to drink 😆. It has a moderate sweetness and a slight bitterness with a nice sharpness. The alcohol content is 16%, but you don't feel it at all😅. It was a very light summer sake 😆.

Japanese>English

Rice used: Miyamanishiki and Gin-san It has a white wine taste and a crisp, tight flavor. It is best when chilled. It is unique and went well with cream cheese ❗️.

Unfiltered raw sake & Asahi rice for 2,530 yen including tax is a super deal ‼️ It is not so fresh, but has a refreshing mouthfeel with a slight sense of maturity. The rich umami comes in smoothly, and the finish is crisp and tight. It has a good balance of bitterness, bitterness, and sweetness, and is the type of sake that one does not get tired of drinking as an unfiltered, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. It is a good sake to drink with food or as an evening drink. ❗️ It was delicious. ❣️

Japanese>English

It tastes a little bit like aged, but it has all the sweetness, flavor, bitterness, and spiciness you would expect. It tastes like tea. It tastes like apple tea. It is a slightly different type of flavor. It tastes juicy, sweet and spicy. Some people may find it spicy, but it's a subtle taste.

Japanese>English

Enjoying delicious sake with the brewer 20259 The booth of Washin. Since it is located in the mountains, there are many dry sakes that go well with the meat-eating culture. ◉Washin Tokubetsu Junmai Omachi Slightly aged with a hint of grain. It can be served lukewarm and is easy to pair with all kinds of food. ◉Washin Junmai Unfinished Nama-shu Asahi This is the most popular of the WASHIN brands. It has a strong rice flavor with a clean and refreshing aftertaste. It is made from Asahi rice. It grows tall and falls over easily, and it seems that the only farmers producing Asahi are in Osaka and a small part of Okayama. ◉Washin Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Namaishiki The nose is sweet and clean, with a hint of Yamadanishiki. The nose is sweet and clean, not unlike Yamadanishiki. The sake is a little strong. ◉Washin Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama Nama Sake Omachi The same structure as Yamadanishiki. It is made with a yeast that produces acidity, and is moderately sweet with a strong flavor that is typical of Omachi. This is my favorite. ◉Washin Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-Nishiki Elegant, clean, and graceful. The taste is slightly bitter. It is a small brewery, and after Corona, the number of bottles produced decreased considerably.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

I had never seen this brand before, so I couldn't resist buying it. This is a sake brewery in Shunan City, Yamaguchi. There are about 1,400 sake breweries in Japan, so it's no wonder that there are breweries and brands that I don't know (there are more than 1,000 here). Even if I were to drink one brand every day for the rest of my life, it would take me almost 30 years (^_^;) It's simply impossible. This was an aside. The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma is distinctive. I wonder what it is, is it the aroma of rice? In total, the aroma is fluffy, the taste is tangy, and the sweetness is warm. I think it's delicious.

I had wanted to drink it for a long time, but the timing was never quite right... The manager said it was his favorite drink in the restaurant! It is a pale yellow color with silver tints and a hint of green. It has a spicy top note with a hint of alcohol, but the aroma is very refreshing, perhaps because of the acidity. When you drink it, the slightly carbonated texture on the tongue is pleasant. There is not much noticeable aroma, but the acidity gives it a refreshing mouthfeel. It may not have much sweetness to begin with, but the acidity helps to make it dry. Despite its dryness, it has a strong flavor, which is probably due to the strong umami that can be tasted from start to finish. Dry sake is usually considered "spicy," but perhaps because of the strong umami, it does not feel too spicy. Interestingly, it is a sake that does not have much bitterness, which may be why it is so light and easy to drink despite its 17% alcohol content. This is seriously very, very good! I wouldn't say it's for everyone, but I think it's a must-try for sake drinkers who like umami!

Japanese>English

Low-polished & sake yeast yeast As expected, it has a strong punch! The aftertaste is also bitter and punchy. ‼️ It has a beautiful mouthfeel and a citrusy bitterness at the finish. It is easy to drink with just the right amount of sweetness. It was a unique and delicious sake with many different expressions. ❣️

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki After opening the bottle, I wondered if it would have been better if I had let it sit longer. I regret it after opening the bottle. Even as it is, it has a great balance of fruity and powerful, with a clean dry finish. ‼️ However, it seemed to have a lot of potential to improve! It was delicious, but it was a waste of time!

Dry Traditional Cooled Sake Acidity Nutty Umami Amino Acidity Warm Sake

I'm going to try a popular version that I haven't had very often at this restaurant. The smell of rice is strong, like cooked rice. The sweetness is quite moderate, as indicated by the dry description. The texture is tight. Aromatic rice flavor and sharp acidity. The rice flavor is not quite dry, but it has a voluminous flavor. Somewhat amino acidic flavor, almost filmy. Grain aroma at the end. It would go well with miso cucumber, or pork stewed in square cubes because it has a good slice of fat. (I ordered a highball first. I ordered the curry flavored chicken cutlet, it doesn't go well with it. A high-cost, spicy and tasty food wine. It may be served at different temperatures. Taste degree ☆ 3.5/5

Japanese>English

It was cold and I wanted to drink heated sake, so I bought this sake. It reminded me of the unique impression I had when I drank it once upon a time. I drank it warmed up, but the acidity stood out without much umami. Sasanishiki is a light rice that does not have much sweetness, so I think it is a dry sake without much sweetness. I would have liked a little more umami.

Japanese>English

This sake goes well with this season, which is getting a little colder. The oak aroma is not too strong, and the sense of maturity makes this sake something special. Of course it goes well with heated sake, so this sake sinks into your cold body. It is a stable taste.

Tasted here also at Hankyu Department Store. Junmai Ginjo-shu made with Kuzuryu. It is a refreshingly dry sake, but has a sweet and fruity taste. This time I bought a bottle of unfiltered raw sake made with Jinryoku.

Japanese>English

Tasted at Umeda Hankyu Department Store. The rice was said to be Gohyakumangoku. The quality of the sake is clean and refreshing for hiyaoroshi. It is easy to drink without a sense of maturity. As the person in charge said, it is a quiet type of sake, so I think it is suitable for a mealtime drink.

Japanese>English

It looks like all of them use locally grown rice, as did the two types of Kitanosho I posted the other day. It seems that only Ryu-ryoku and Koko use Jinryoku all the time. I'm sure there are other places like Okura that use it for single use. When I tasted it, my impression was that it was quite sweet and the second half was heavy, but it was smoky and the flavor of the rice came through with a bang. It has a strong bitterness at the end. It is not the type of sake I would drink on its own, so I will have to wait and see. I don't think it should be chilled too much. If you like Shimane or Tottori area sake, this would be good for you. I think it has a quality of sake that would not be affected by letting it sit for a while. There are glimpses of sweetness and a fruity atmosphere, but I wonder if it's basically more of a classic. Is it a multi-faceted, multi-personality sake?
