A bottle placed in front of me The other is this one, Shizenkogo's Sawayaka! I didn't know there was such a brand! I looked it up on Sake-no-wa, and it was my first time to try it! I was curious to see what kind of sake it was, since it was a honjozo, but it was a beautiful dry sake that didn't feel like it had been alkaloated! I think it's a good sake to be heated up! Dishes lined up on the table one after another! I don't think our generation would be able to finish all the food at this pace! But it was a fun night of drinking and eating at our own pace! extensive knowledge Alcohol content: +15 Sake degree: +15 Acidity: undisclosed Rice used for making sake：Rice suitable for sake brewing Rice Polishing Ratio : Koji 60%, Kake 70% Condition : Fired

Slight peach sweet aroma 🍑. In the mouth, the lush mouthfeel with a hint of fruitiness spreads in the mouth, and the alcohol and rice flavor comes without unpleasantness: ☺️✨ Too outstanding for everyday use! 💦 And here comes this most powerful cosy ❤️😭😭

Happy Halloween🎃. and it has nothing to do with the bear on the label is dressed up 🐻. The second souvenir from the other day ✨ Is it my imagination that it feels more like apple🍎 when I drink it after looking at the label? It's clean, crisp, fruity and just the way I like it 🍾. It's a shame it's only one cup 😅. I mean, I've been drinking a lot of one-cups lately 🫙.

This is a completely pre-ordered raw usu-nigori. It was my first time to try Jyoshinin Jiheiji itself. It was a brand that I had paid attention to in everyone's reviews, so I took a chance and bought a bottle. The result was a great answer. It has an elegant and gentle sweetness. It makes me feel spring.

Japanese>English

This year's version is delicious too!

I opened the second bottle because I have reserved next year's. It is too dangerous for me. (Be careful about chugging it all at once.)

At home. The second item of the sake tasting party. Wakayama Rashomon. I had the impression that it was a famous sake with a harsh name and a long history, so I thought it would have a strong alcoholic taste, but no matter what, it's very easy to drink. It doesn't have a gorgeous aroma like Raifuku, but you can feel the sweetness of the rice strongly in your mouth, and it has a clear and light taste, so you can go as much as you want.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Shinsaibashi Takashimaya Department Store on the recommendation of a store clerk. Rice used is unknown. The richness of the original sake can be felt. It does not have much of a nama-zake character, and is clear and clean through the throat, making it a sake that you will never get tired of drinking. Because of its name, I had always assumed it was a sake from Kyoto. I️ was surprised to learn that it was the first Japanese sake to win the Monde Selection gold medal, and that Wakayama is proud of this world-class sake. My sincere apologies 🙏.

Welcome party, the second. Many local people do not know what kind of local sake is available, so as the Sake-no-Wa-Uwa-Uwa-tai, we brought some to the company's drinking party to convey the charm of this sake. This one was brewed by Nakajima Sake Brewery, a 100 stone sake brewery in Okunoto, using Azuma Sake Brewery's facilities in Komatsu, which is in the midst of the excitement of the Shinkansen bullet train opening. Nakajima's gentle umami and Azuma's sharpness. It's a good taste. It's a nice taste.

Japanese>English

(*^o^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Drink and Support 📣✊. We received sake from the Nakajima Sake Brewery, whose store and other facilities were destroyed by the Noto Peninsula earthquake and suffered extensive damage. This is the first time we have received sake from this brewery. The aroma is mild😊The flavor of the rice fills your mouth 😋 after a light sweetness, it finishes with a slight acidity and bitterness 😘. It was a delicious sake with a robust flavor, yet light to drink 😚👍.

This is the first time I've drunk this since they changed the label design. Mild but fruity. It has a calm feeling. It has a melon-like atmosphere. Deep and juicy.

Japanese>English

This is the first time for me to drink Jukishin except for Yumachi. I was wondering what Nemuchi-san was drinking. It's almost the same as Nemuchi's review, but it's a bittersweet, melon-like, and bitter. It's not as sweet as I thought it would be, but it's delicious in its own way 😋.

Longing! Going to Sakelabo Tokyo (^_^)☆. I'm going to go to Sakaelabo Tokyo. (2) Jukishin Ehime's sake, is it your first time? What the heck, I don't remember much lol. Maybe I ( '-')swooned ⤴︎ and drank it naturally.

The toji has been replaced and they are using a ferry for rice this year. Fresh, sweet and sour, but complex. Is it lightly gassy? A portion of the proceeds will be donated to animal welfare😺🐶. Overall, I'd say it's a light drink? The label is emo. The summer label looks like something out of Boku no Natsuyasumi.

Japanese>English

Home drinking. 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Shiga Prefecture The color is slightly whitish. The mouthfeel is clean and mild. The taste is sweet like green apple. The acidity is blended with sweet and sour. Is it sweet? Is it sweet? But then the sourness appears and has a big impact 🤩. The aftertaste has the umami of the rice, which is even more pronounced when combined with the acidity. I felt that the hint of aroma also penetrated through. By not being too sweet, the acidity and fragrance were also well perceived, allowing me to enjoy a mellow and refreshing sake 😊.

Stylish bottle with mechanical stopper. Refreshing, just like the image. You can feel the fresh acidity and The flavor of the rice is firm. As the day goes by, the taste gets better and better. I also enjoyed the taste change.

Japanese>English

Sweet aroma like melon, sweet and bitter with a strong bitterness and sour aftertaste. The bitterness lingers, but it's delicious😋. It's a unique sake 钎It's good as a food drink too. I'm not sure if it's because it's a new sake or not, but it's got a bit of an edge to it.

Japanese>English

The bottle was opened without any sign of carbonation. The whey-like smell is gorgeous. The taste is dry and rice-like. It finishes with a sense of rice and acidity. It is a taste you can find when you drink orikara-mi. The sweetness is added by mixing in the ori that has accumulated at the bottom, and it is just right. It is delicious. As you get used to drinking it, it becomes more familiar to your tongue and you can drink it in large gulps, and it is irresistibly good as you continue drinking it. It tastes even better after a year in the refrigerator, but I can't wait that long.
