Rice used is Kinmon Nishiki Meikyojo-jimizu" is another brand of Osawa Sake Brewery. This is a good sake. ❣️ It has strength and acidity that is typical of a sake brewed from a traditional sake yeast stock, and the aging process has given it a round umami taste. It has a moderate alcohol content, and this flavor is very relaxing. I want to drink it again!

Japanese>English

This was also my first time drinking it! It was delicious! But I was too drunk to give an honest opinion 💦. I am sure it was delicious!

Sake rice is Kinmon-nishiki Very smooth and light. A little bitterness in the aftertaste, but nothing peculiar.

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024 (2) Gindagawa, which I have had a cup of special honjozo or something before. Was Gintagawa sold in Niigata? I thought it was a classic type, but unlike the image on the label, the acidity was noticeable and it was a bit modern? It looks like it would go well with Western food 🍴.

Honjozo 🍶 JR East Kyun ♥ Pass one-day trip to Niigata 🚃. First, we took the Shinkansen to Niigata. Go to Aomi shopping center in Honmachi 🚌. Much darker. The sake 😅. Match with Cod Milt Tempura 👍. It is too strong by itself, but it becomes delicious when combined with snacks. Sashi-zuri A ¥1600 (tuna, flatfish, nodoguro, sea bream, yellowtail, shrimp, bai clam, bigeye tuna, sea bass) is also worth it 😋. Suzuki Fresh Fish Restaurant @ Niigata Honmachi 20240301

It was my first time to try Usuzakura. I missed the chance to buy nama sake, so I bought hiyaoroshi. The rice is Ginfuki. It has a relaxed atmosphere. The aroma is a little fruity. It has a mild sweet umami taste. Is it sweet among the Hiyaoroshi?

Japanese>English

This brand is also fresh and delicious no matter which one you drink. It is a small brewery, so if you find it, you should definitely try it.

Japanese>English

Since I drank up the Shinkai Sanjo so quickly, I had another bottle of Shiga sake. This is a light nigori (nigori is a little bit thicker than the original) sake from Omi Tohei Sake Brewery in Higashiomi City. This sake is made by Masumoto Sake Brewery in Higashiomi City. You may not find this sake outside of Shiga. By the way, although not in Higashiomi, I stopped by my favorite museum, Lake Biwa Museum, so I'll introduce some of my lake friends with a few photos 💕. At the center is the red cheeked bite with a trademark. It is served cold. The color is a gentle light nigori. The top aroma is of blue melon and white peach with a gentle fragrance. The overall finish is dry with a strong alcohol attack, The sweet and sour aroma of blue melon and white peach mingles with the richness of milky rice, and the taste sublimates into a rich sweet and sour umami like dried fruit in the mouth. When heated, the sharp alcohol taste settles down, and the balance between the mild and mellow rice flavor and the enhanced bitterness and the thickened mouthfeel is indescribable. This feeling is 👍 in the middle. I imagine it is like a softer version of sakuten. I must drink Furozumi too!

Here is the 5th drink of the comparison at HAMA BAR in Kashima City Kohime Junmai Sake This one has a distinctly different taste from the other four. The color, the grain-derived aroma, the taste... Classic type with strong umami and acidity. ❗️ Suitable as a food sake

Japanese>English

Purchased with Tenryo sake cup at Okuhiroya in Kayashima. They stocked it because it was well received at a Saga sake tasting event held for sake retailers. Probably not normally available in the Kansai region. The rice is made from Hokkaido's Kitashizuku. I know Nabeshima also uses Kitashizuku. It has a beautiful sake quality for the rice polishing ratio. There is a slight sweetness, but it is also slightly thin and heavy. It also has a nutty taste. It tastes like nothing else.

Japanese>English

HAMA BAR⑤. The last one is "Kouhime" on the far left. It has a slightly sour taste and is very impressive. My friend said she could tell even blind. Really? The DEAR MY PRINCESS on the menu seems to have been very popular this season. It seems to have been very popular this season and has been sold out. I got the third one, RISE, instead.

Junmai Namaishige Namaishige🍶Challenge 90✨Free Yamada Nishiki🌾 from Mie Prefecture. Slightly mature aroma. A little grassy on the palate. But it finishes lighter than expected. Alcoholic taste is strong. It is sticky, bitter, and spicy. A little sourness. Delicious with spicy miso wings and sweetness. Umi to @Takadanobaba 20230922

Japanese>English

Wow! This is intense. Vinegar, takuan (pickled radish), and yogurt! And yet you can also taste the sweetness of the rice. The bubbles bloom in a flowery, shwashy way. This is the taste of a sake with a Sake Degree of -65 and an acidity of 9.9! Definitely a sake that leaves a lasting impression. I'm glad I took the plunge and bought it. This is the taste of a sake with a sake strength of -65 and an acidity of 9.9! Comes in a PET bottle, so it's easy to open. I wonder if there are more active cloudy bottles in PET bottles. The label has gone away.

Yesterday we went to Bicchu Matsuyama and Kibi Tsu! We were worried about rain, but it was really fortuitous that it shifted and we saw some sunshine. The view over the magnificent stone walls and town at the top of the mountain was exceptional ✨. Then we visited the Kibitsu Shrine, with its long corridor and historic appearance. The long corridor and historic appearance of the Kibitsu Shrine that we visited afterwards was truly heartwarming 🍑. After exploring, we crossed the Seto Inland Sea and drank a glass of Kibi-shu 🍶. When you open the bottle, you will find a deep aroma of nuts and chestnuts. The mouthfeel is slippery and dry. It is full-bodied with a punch of acidity and astringency, as well as a full-bodied rice flavor. It has a presence like nuts and bitter chocolate. However, the stimulation of the hot, acidic, and astringent taste tightens it up like a whip, and it has a good salty taste with a firm edge!

Two years ago 🚗 I visited Minami Haga, a roadside station near a sake brewery, and checked in 😅I bought a mini bottle of Banshu Ichiken and a bottle of Old Pine Sake Brewery's Sansho as a souvenir. Sanyo Bai Sake Brewery and Old Pine Sake Brewery are almost across the street from each other, about a minute walk away, so I recommend you visit both of them 😊. The Sansho is a regional brand 😃👆👆 Like the Banshu Ikken, the Sansho Junmai Ginjo is also made with Hyogo Yume Nishiki sake rice. Maybe it would have been better to warm it up 🧐. Label: 🏷️ Difficulty: low 😍 Soaking in hot water made it easy to peel off. Place to buy 🍶:Roadside Station Minami Haga

The top of the tree. Sourness and sweetness, both present. It leaves an aftertaste, but it is not unpleasant. It was good, moderately rich. What is kijoshu? I searched for it and found out that it is made with sake, not water. I had no idea.

Souvenirs from a trip to see the autumn leaves at Momijiyama in Yamazaki, Shiso City. Currently, there are two remaining sake breweries in the city, Sanyo Sake Brewery and Old Pine Brewery, but until 40 years ago, there was another brewery, Honke Monzenya, which brewed and sold a type of sake called sansho (three laughs). The building of the Honke Monzenya still remains, but in order to make the most of the historical landscape where sake breweries line up from Sanyo Bai to Laematsu and Honke Monzenya, The Yamazaki Central City Area Revitalization Committee (Good Town Project) was formed, and over a period of two years, "Sansho" was revived! There is a café called "Sansho" on the former site. Let's start with the old pine tree.

I went to Yamagata for the first time in a long time😊. I was allowed to drink sake at my uncle's house. Mellow and sake-like sake, just the way I like it for everyday drinking 😊. There was also some Asahitaka at night, but I don't remember drinking it. I forgot to take a picture 🥲.

Japanese>English

The aroma of the rice is very deep. The aftertaste is very strong.

Japanese>English

After all, I felt that the brewery has its own taste. The aftertaste is the taste of the brewery. This is one of the bottles I bought during the brewery tour.

I bought this bottle at Belk's on my way to work because my body was in need of a drink. I got the impression that it is not a traditional sake, but a modern, clean or refreshing drink. And the specs are Rice used: Domestic rice (both rice and rice malt) Polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = around 2.0 Acidity = around 1.4 Amino acidity = around 1.1 (From the brewery's website) If you are going to drink a cup of sake, you want it to have this level of quality. This is a bottle from a long-established brewery in Handa, Aichi, which has been in existence since the Edo period.

Japanese>English

At Sekai no Yamachan Hakata Bus Terminal Branch, I met Handago at the World Yamachan Hakata Bus Terminal! It is fruity and has a clean aftertaste. It goes well with Dote-ni.
