☀️ It has a strong core of umami. The sweetness is added to it to give it a robust flavor 😋. The slight bitterness in the aftertaste, combined with a hint of Hakka, makes for a refreshing finish 😙.

At home. First Hiroshima, first Saijotsuru. The aroma seems to have a strong alcohol feeling. The sourness spreads in the mouth, and the sweetness comes a little later. I am impressed by the fact that even a long-established sake brewery is trying to challenge various things. It is a drinkable size, and I drank it up very quickly. It was delicious.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we paired this first sake with Japanese food for dinner. Saijotsuru Jun Dai Black Label Hibi Seishin Nakadori Nama Sake✨. I have not had much luck with Hiroshima sake so far, but I hope this will be a new encounter for you: ☺️ I've never had much luck with Hiroshima sake, but I'm hoping to meet some new people. Is Tachika a characteristic of the rice? Is it the yeast? The aroma is not so strong, but it is a bit of a "chemi" aroma. The taste has the fresh acidity and clear quality of Nakadori Nama-shu, with soft fruit flavors of muscat and lychee, and finishes crisply with a dry taste with a strong sense of alcohol in the latter half. It is perfect as a food sake and does not interfere with meals, but it is also delicious when drunk on its own 😋.

Japanese>English

It's delicious, with a gassy, concentrated tropical-like sweet flavor. It's sweet, but not as floral or fruity as I thought it would be.

I had it with sea bream carpaccio and as the name suggests, it enhances the flavor of the fish dish😊. The sake alone is refreshing and delicious.

Finally got some raw oysters so I could drink 😆. I knew it was good😁. The white wine style goes well with it😋 I felt a little sweet this time. @Kawagoe

Schwarzenegger and Refreshing Aroma: Fruity, a little foamy attack. Taste: Fresh sweetness, low acidity. It goes in smoothly and has a refreshing aftertaste. Easy to drink at ABV 13. Aperitif and instant kill. Didn't hold up to seafood 🤣.

Yamatsuru is the closest sake brewery to my house, but I haven't had much of it lately. The last time I drank it I got the impression that it was peculiar and not really my cup of tea, but not this Junmai Daiginjo! Clear and fruity, good balance of flavors. It's also gorgeous😋. The price is reasonable for a Junmai Daiginjo, but I think it's worth it🧐 I can't underestimate local sake 😚

Japanese>English

Low-polished Junmai-shu from Yamatsuru, a local sake brewery in Ikoma, Nara. The name is Choyao. It was a gift, but it looks like it will cost a fortune💧. I heard it was brewed using a method described in a wooden letter from the Nara period. I wonder if it is true. Anyway, let's try it. Wow! It is indeed as rich and sweet as I had heard! The sake level is a whopping -40❗️ But the aftertaste is refreshing. Surprisingly easy to drink and delicious 😋. It's pretty good 👍I'll have to try this one too 😙. But I wonder if people in the Nara period really enjoyed this kind of sake 🤔.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ My first Yamatsuru. No junmai daiginjo feel, quite austere impression. I think it would fit if it was called Junmai-shu. I think it would be more gorgeous if it were heated up a bit. Slightly old-fashioned, but tasty.

(♨어팀)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we opened a bottle of Murayu's Joban label 😀. The aroma is somewhat like muscat 😊The gentle sweetness spreads softly in the mouth, and is finished with a refreshing acidity 😚The sweetness is strong but well balanced with the acidity, making it easy to drink 😘This is a delicious sake 🥳.

(*´ω*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 At Sakaishi Daigo (Part 15) I had my first bottle of Murasuke 😀. It's very sweet and delicious 🤤 but also very refreshing 🤔The acidity is well balanced😙It's delicious but it's nice to drink a sake that's not easily available😎.

Japanese>English

Murasuke after a long time. It has a sourness like the top of yogurt and a slight bitterness. It brought back the impression I had when I drank it for the first time several years ago. This lactic acid-like feeling is unique and unique to Murasuke, isn't it? It is very addictive. It is very delicious.

I went to Kuwana this holiday weekend and found a sake shop that sold a lot of local sake from Mie and bought this sake. It is a summer-only fresh-stored sake. It has a slightly sweet taste at first, followed by a sour taste and a cool feeling. It was delicious. 2134 yen.

Japanese>English

fourth cup of Tsunite (four cups of sake) Rice used is Gohyakumangoku It has a gorgeous aroma and a smooth taste. It was a light and spicy sake with a clear acidity and a good spiciness. As a food sake, I thought it was the best of the day! It is also delicious.

Japanese>English

This is the first sake I learned of its existence in a store. It has a sweet and delicious taste with a hint of rummy. The second half has a pungent taste, but it seems to converge with the first half. As the description says, it is light and refreshing at first, but in the second half, it is thicker and gives a different impression. It is slightly fruity and dry.

Tonight, our first in the series, Aizu Otokoyama Kai from Fukushima Aizu ✨. First of all, the specs are 100% Fukunoka with Jungin polish and 16% alcohol. The aroma is clear with a hint of pineapple and a mojito-like flavor in the second half. The attack is soft and sweet just like the aroma, but soon the acidity and bitterness overtake it and it has a nice crisp finish 👍 It is perfect as a mealtime drink and is very easy to drink without feeling too much alcohol 😋.

Japanese>English

Otokoyama Brewery is located in Aizumisato-cho, Onuma-gun, Fukushima Prefecture, which is different from Kaito Otokoyama. The brewery was dormant for a while, but has restarted again. It is a fresh, raw ogara-mi sake. It is slightly carbonated and tastes great with the bitterness of the oli.

Japanese>English

Aizu Otokoyama INOMATA65, autumn rise. Orthodox but slightly fruity. It is delicious and does not have the strange feeling of old-fashioned sake lingering on the tongue. This is a repeat sake.
