A low alcohol, slightly sweet drink. It's refreshing and clean, so it's suitable for summer.

☆☆☆☆☆ The third bottle was Sugi Nishiki. Kaiun, Eikun, and Hana no Mai were also available, but I chose a sake I thought was new to me. It is rather crisp and dry. I can smell a little alcohol, but I think it is a clear dry sake.

At home. Nara Sake without permission, 12th stage ~‼️ Kubo Honke, a long-established sake brewery in Uda City, Nara Prefecture ~ ‼️ Hatsukasumi and this Soriryu are famous brands. The baseball club team that my sons took care of when they were in junior high school was located in Uda, and this is a nostalgic place where we used to go every weekend. We used to pass by the brewery we visited this time, but this is the first time we visited there. It is called "Sake Brewery Street," but it is really a quiet street. And the taste of the sake.... There is not much aroma, and although you can feel the alcohol in your mouth, the dryness is not so high and the sake is easy to drink. I imagined it would be a dry sake for the experts because it is from a long-established sake brewery, but to my surprise, it is moderately drunk and has a refreshing taste. It is not flashy, but it is a good sake. ‼️

295 yen. A little more expensive than Asahi Super Dry 500ml can. It has a thin, pear-like smell. It tastes bitter from the beginning when you let it get some air from the sake-like taste, and it has a light, thin taste until the end. I think it is 3 times more intoxicating than Asahi Super Dry.

Japanese>English

I finally bought a bottle of "Nobeyokocho". A warm one-cup cup is good.

Continuing the sake tasting at Takeo Onsen ♨️. I didn't know there were so many sake breweries in Saga. We enjoyed the sake while chatting with the proprietress. No aftertaste, too refreshing. You can compare the taste if you are not drunk 🤣.

Japanese>English

At Yakitori and Chicken Cuisine Izakaya Sabito in Saga. The taste is sweet and sour, with a dry aftertaste and a strong alcohol taste that chills the upper jaw. The aftertaste is dry, with a strong alcohol sensation that tingles in the upper jaw. It can be drunk rather easily.

Japanese>English

A bottle purchased on a trip to Saga Aroma like old sake, like rice bran - then mineral aroma Soft sweetness without acidity and a round mouthfeel. A hint of vanilla in the nose I think this would be even better if it were heated up. But even though it's air-conditioned, it's still hot in the middle of summer. The website says "lukewarm or hot heating is recommended"! I had no choice but to drink it. ❗️ I drink it with a sake cup that my eldest son gave me! Sake temperature: 45 degrees. The fermentation smell is gone and the aroma is not strong. In the mouth, the soft sweetness is still there, but the thickness has increased and there is not much acidity. The sweetness slowly lingers on the tongue. This is delicious. ❗️ I want to drink it slowly without snacks on a long autumn night!

(The best way to get the most out of this product is to visit 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this at a liquor store on my way back from a visit to a grave in Fukui Prefecture 🙋I bought it because it was reviewed on youtube by Ishikawa's world famous Hoshitaro. I took it out of the fridge and opened the bottle. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not, but it's a good thing. The flavor of the rice and the pleasant acidity. When the temperature is raised, the flavor and acidity are more assertive than right after opening the bottle. It says that it goes well with Japanese cuisine, and I think this is true. It is a good food sake that does not interfere with food. Sari seems to go well with rice crispy rice 😀.

Japanese>English

I wanted to drink some more, so I changed the restaurant for the third round of drinks. Sari Sari Tangled Hon Nama from Mouri Shuzo! Mild aroma, rich and full flavor, and a sharp sharp taste ✨. The introduction on the internet said it was brewed with the image of a "moon" floating in the spring haze, so it's been a while since I've had a "moon-viewing sake tonight" 🍶🌛🍶.

Japanese>English

A night of drinking at "Fukuna Sakai" with my usual friends. Finally, we ordered the "roasted duck" that we had been curious about, which was quite delicious and similar to the seasoning we had previously had at an izakaya in Kyoto. Now, I've chosen sake from outside of the prefecture, but I ordered a bottle of Fukui sake to finish off the evening 🍶. Sari Junmai Daiginjo The aroma of rice with a hint of acidity, a slight shift from sweetness to umami, and then a sharp finish with a clear rice aroma. The sweetness and umami that is typical of "Sari" and the clean acidity finish off the duck's flavor and fat with a good aftertaste. I had a course, a la carte and various other dishes, all of them were very delicious and the price was very reasonable for the quality of the food, so I found a good restaurant ✨I will have to go back in the future

Faint ginjo aroma✨ A sip will leave you with just the right amount of spiciness and sharpness 🥰. This is a food sake, but it has a delicious flavor that doesn't interfere with the ingredients 😌. I rarely drink outside, but this one was delicious 🥰. The disadvantage of drinking it in a restaurant is that you can't taste the flavor immediately after opening the bottle... and you can't tell how it changes the next day or later 😭. The sake I got this time was a bottle and there were only a few bottles left, so there is a high possibility that the taste has changed since the bottle was opened 💧... 💧. And, well, it's impossible for me to drink it in a restaurant... but I have an inquisitive mind as a sake lover 🤭 lol

I was able to get some free time during the day, so I went to the gym and worked out for an hour, then went straight to the bathhouse and had a nice, wide bathtub, and then had a long-overdue dinner. I started with a beer and then opened a bottle of "Hanagaki Ginjo" that my father-in-law gave me for New Year's. After the refreshing sweetness that is typical of Hanagaki, the umami flavor spreads out, leading directly to the rich aftertaste. It is relatively sweeter than most of Fukui's local sake, but it has no peculiarities and is easy to drink 😉. I'll have to consume it little by little since my cellar is overloaded with more sake from the New Year's holiday including this one 😁.

Japanese>English

Translated from original in Japanese: 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this at Nanbu Shuzo Sake Brewery. You can drink it like Calpis soda. It is Calpis for adults.

Japanese>English

The one I bought after tasting it at Ikushima Shoten. Slightly effervescent. Melon-like aroma and taste. Bitter and spicy in the latter half. When I tasted it, it tasted sweeter, so I wonder if it will taste sweeter after a while. When I drank it again, it didn't feel spicy on the first day, but sweet and spicy. After a few days, it tastes like cemedine.

Japanese>English

This time we changed things up a bit and bought a bottle of Kuromatsu Kenrishi❣️, which we fell in love with at first sight because of the shape of the bottle and the coolness of the label. I had it lukewarm with my homemade oden🍢🙏. It's also good that you can heat up the whole bottle in a ding-dong! It has a bit of an alcoholic aroma, but I don't mind it too much. It's just as spicy and easy to drink 😮❗️ It's like an evolution of the classic type of sake? and I enjoyed it with food 😚. The bottle is stylish and I'd like to keep a bottle in stock for when I want a little heated sake 👍 Thanks for the food!
