It's white and looks like ❄️⛄️. Sweet and mellow I was expecting it to be thicker, but it's pretty easy to drink 😊. I read the label on the back and it looks like it would be great with soda! I should have tried it! I realized today that I should have tried it. All the drinks in this set are new to me. I was also surprised that the bananas had a higher alcohol content! ฅ(⊙д⊙๑)ฅ

It's the first time I've had a sake from the west, and I was expecting it to be more heavy, but it's surprisingly refreshing. It has a gassy and spicy aftertaste with a 19 degree alcohol smell that flows away.

I saw it in a sake shop and bought it at a convenience store....well...the aroma, a slightly sour sweet sake aroma...the taste is also sweet sake...the aftertaste is junmai sake...I guess I would drink it as it is...? It's a bit too much for a food sake.... It's easy to drink, but ....

(oˆ罒ˆo)🍶🍶🍶🍶 The third bottle of the Kyokugori Festival was Ozeki's Yumemiru Hitsuji🐑 opened 😀. The aroma is mild 😁The mouthfeel is smooth even though it is nigori 😊The sweetness and umami of the gentle rice 🌾 is good👍The middle part has a lactic acid taste 😚The aftertaste is refreshing and easy to drink 😘. I think it is the best one-cup nigori that you can drink whenever you want 🥳.

The king of light and dry taste. It has a clean and refreshing taste. It is suitable for drinking with food. But it is also good for savoring the taste of the hardy rice It is also good for savoring. It is made from Gohyakumangoku at a 45% polishing ratio.

Japanese>English

Asahi Shuzo's "Yobitomo" to be newly released in 2025 The name "Yobiyu" means "to call friends" in Japanese, This brand was created to make the most of what was learned at the "Kubota Juku," where volunteers from Kubota dealers learned about Japanese sake. Originally, only Junmai Daiginjo was sold, but this year, a new Junmai Ginjo was released. This year, the company released a new Junmai Ginjo. The label is made of Oguni washi paper made by craftsmen. It is an intangible cultural asset of Nagaoka City. The design is said to depict a friend running to a person enjoying sake with a smile on his face. It looks cute when you think about it. Full, sweet aroma, apples, and alcohol, Slightly thick and smooth mouthfeel, Sweet, slightly astringent, and gently full-bodied, It has a slightly spicy, light and dry taste. Delicious! Today, I practiced sake tasting again, but failed miserably. It's so difficult. I asked my second son to rearrange the order of the bottles and test them, but he came up with some exquisitely difficult questions, === Sake Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic) Raw material rice: Gohyakumangoku produced in Nagaoka City Rice polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol content: 15 Sake degree: +3.0 Acidity: 1.3 1,513 yen for 720ml === ★★★★☆

Introducing a izakaya with an austere, connoisseur-like atmosphere. I was interested in this sake because a guide recommended it on a TV program. I was curious about this sake. ‼️ I heard it is very popular sake in Niigata. I didn't know that😅 It has no aroma. ❗️ It has no habit and it's refreshing and easy to drink.

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima This is a light flavor. It has a moderate alcohol content, a slight sweetness, and a crisp finish. It was a good food sake that can be drunk without hesitation. ❣️

Japanese>English

@sakebar Fukuzo This sake is from the same Kobayashi Shuzo Honten as the "Hakata no Mori" I posted a while ago. Mandai must be more famous locally 🤔. It will be pressed on the morning of Risshun 🍶. The aroma on the nose is fruity🍍 and sweet. When you take it into your mouth, it has a deep, mild sweetness and umami that is typical for a draft sake, and it finishes with a slight astringent taste. It was delicious 🍶✨.

Japanese>English

I was aware that it was originally intended to be a classic sake, but as I expected from a sake pressed in the morning of Risshun, it was a fresh, elegant, and sweet sake with a great aroma. I was very satisfied with the sake, which tasted even better than I had imagined.

Purchased at Sota Watanabe Shoten in August. When I went camping in the summer, I attended with melons from Yamama and Niida Zenshu, but both were gone in an instant, so I didn't raise them to check in 😂. Such is the classic brand of the Niida head family. Did I drink it cold (room temperature) at first? I don't remember. (LOL) I thought it was very tasty when I drank it heated (probably hot)! I thought it was delicious! The complex acidity and umami of the rice, unique to the brewer's yeast, is extended by the warming up of the sake! I love the way the flavor expands when heated. I think it tastes great chilled, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend heating it up. I might want to keep this one on hand. I'm glad I don't have to put the classic in the fridge. I would love to have a fridge for sake, but...

Japanese>English

Ingredient rice: Natural rice (naturally favorable rice grown without using any fertilizers such as pesticides or compost) Rice polishing ratio 90 Alcohol content 15 Niida Honke's sake has been getting a good reputation lately. Personally, I bought this sake because I am in a mini-boom for a higher level of sake other than sweet and fruity. Here we go! The aroma is... What is this? It smells simple and sweet, like freshly baked bread. I have never tasted a sake with such an aroma. The mysterious brewing water is soft, slightly viscous, mineral, and translucent. The sweetness is like freshly baked bread, and the robust, tight rice flavor is as vibrant as ever. There is also a hint of acidity, which is probably due to the use of the sake yeast, but at any rate, it is full of umami. Tamura is a gem that is profound yet light, powerful yet gentle, and a contradiction in terms. It disappeared with a slight sharpness in the back of the throat. In recent years, an increasing number of popular sakes are being hailed as wine-like sake with a sweet and sour taste like grapes. Of course, I like these sake as well. But if you ask me which sake made from rice has the weight, lingering aftertaste, complexity, and simplicity of red wine, I would drink Tamura without hesitation. Thank you again for the food tonight!

Rice used is Dewanosato At first sip, I thought, "This is delicious! This is quite a talented brewer. The moment you take a sip, the banana-like sweetness spreads, with a good amount of bitterness in the aftertaste. It is not gorgeous, but the atmosphere is calm and serene from start to finish. It is a nice and classy sake and I liked it❣️.

Sannomaru Autumn hiyaoroshi from Kaito Otokoyama Shuzo. There is almost no standing aroma, but the hint of aroma is pear. It is a junmai sake that was fire-aged before storage and bottled fresh. It has a rich flavor, but it is still fresh, so it is not hard to drink and before you know it, you will be back for more.

January 2, 2024 Banquet at home. Drinking sake with my sister who is back home. The fourth and last sake of the day is The fourth and last sake of the day was Asahi Wakamatsu Junmai Sake sake. It was purchased at Amaha Shuho in Tokushima City. I had heard from my sister that it was delicious, and I was curious about it. I was able to get it when I visited the sake brewery in Seitama. I was finally able to get my hands on it when I visited Seitama's sake brewery. When poured into a glass, it had a yellowish When I poured it into a glass, it had a yellowish color and a sense of maturity. The color is yellow and it has a sense of maturity. It has a unique aroma like old pickles with a hint of acidity. The taste is sweet and rich, with a very mellow flavor. It can be served cold or at room temperature. It is best to drink it cold or at room temperature by itself. When heated, it has a softer flavor and is even more delicious. It tastes even better when heated. I like it best when it is warmed up.

The most recent one is from Sasaki Shuzo (Ehime). This is the most impressive taste since Yaegiku from Sasaki Shuzo (Ehime, Japan). The first day was a day of drinking. On the first day, it was served with jakoten (fish cake) and unagi kabayaki (broiled eel) from Yawatahama and broiled eel on the first day, and grilled sea bream on the fifth day. I enjoyed it with grilled sea bream kama on the fifth day. This sake is a must have for sure. I will definitely get this sake again.........

Whether you drink it cold or warmed, the sweetness of the rice flavor doesn't overpower the alcohol, and it has a great aftertaste. This is good. But it's only 20 degrees, so go easy on yourself.
