It has a sweet rice aroma rather than a fruity one. Unlike the popular sake of today, it has a strong bitter sweet taste...mellow umami taste...you can feel the flavor of the rice...it's a Junmai with a strong presence...it's like a sake for the sake connoisseur.

I wish I could have been there 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I had business in Toyama, so I bought it at Liquor Pocket Mizuhata by the way. It's a great way to start the day. I had it after a long time, but it is still good.

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. It is easy to drink. ❗️ I don't feel the umami and sweetness when it's cold so I'd like to try it heated next time 😊. I would like to drink it heated next time 😊.

It is not written on the label, but according to the liquor store's explanation, it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake made from Omachi. It was purchased together with Tsururei Nigori at Tanaka Shoten. It has a fresh taste like a nama-shu, and the sweetness and spiciness are in balance. Refreshing and fruity. Gentle sweetness with a sense of thickening.

2023 Ginjo Shinshu Matsuri🍶. You can feel the umami of rice well. Dry 🍶.

The third cup went to "sake-ichisoku"! Thick, grape-like aroma. The mouthfeel is full, with a tangy, pungent, classic flavor. It goes well with mushrooms to enjoy a moment of old-fashioned feeling! The sake itself is smooth and silky, so the lightness and the thickness of the flavor are a good accent👍.

At home. Okuharima, which is always ranked first in Hyogo Prefecture, was the first time I had it - ‼️ The aroma is distinctive. It has a distinctive aroma. While you feel the aroma, the mouthfeel is smooth and dry, but you can gradually feel the sweetness and umami of the rice, and it has a refreshing sharpness. I have the impression that it is suitable to savor slowly and carefully.

As the name suggests, it is dry. Mild ginjo aroma and sharpness. It is suitable for a mid-meal drink.

〰fixture Hyogo Yume Nishiki 2022/08 Fairly deep golden color. It has a clear acidity from the Yamahai method and a sense of maturity. It is rich and full-bodied with a slight heaviness, but it has a sharpness. It is said to go well with botan nabe (hot pot), but it is difficult to match it with anything. It's hard to match it with anything.

Strong rice flavor. The aroma is unique to sake with alcohol, The aroma is gorgeous, as expected of a sake entered in a sake competition. It is easy to cut through and has an excellent mouthfeel. The alcohol content is high at 17°C.

First brand. Purchased at Kadoya Sake Shop in Osaka. The first impression was "deliciously spicy. It gives the impression of being similar to Nabeshima, but without the gasiness. It has a very careful taste, and it makes you feel relaxed 😙.

Purchased at Hasegawa Sake Shop online. The 500ml bottle of this sake costs about the same as a 1.5 liter bottle, but that's why it's so tasty! I always drink it with a sense of anticipation. Alcohol content 17%. Rice polishing ratio 40%. The first saké has a firm, slightly dry taste. The balance is very good. It is not at all fruity like apples, grapes, pineapple, etc., which are common. It is not gorgeous, but as a food sake, it is a sake that goes well with food and makes you say "delicious". One more sip. As you take another sip and another sip, before you know it, it's gone. It was very delicious! (^O^)

Smells like rice and green apple. Start drinking from the top clear. Slightly effervescent. Creamy, with sweetness and spiciness right in the middle. The taste of rice and fruity flavor is good. When the semi-solid lees are mixed in, the smell seems to become sweeter. It is mild and pungent, and has a good rice taste and flavor, and is more palatable when mixed in. I was already tongue-tied after drinking it with Onigoroshi. Hirotogawa nigori, which I wanted to drink on a good day. Congratulations on your 1,000,000 Sake-no-wa check-in.

Smells like apple sorbet. Fruity, beautiful, and smooth. The apple-like rice flavor and umami come in and quickly disappear, leaving a fresh taste. It is very drinkable, but beautiful. Delicious! More juicy the next day!

I was looking forward to drinking it. Fruity and fresh aroma...mouthfeel...sweet and delicious 😋 with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste...maybe my expectations were too high...it's delicious, but it's a classic sake.... Maybe it's because it's one of the specs of "⭐️"...a little disappointing...I'll drink a higher spec next time...

While bringing the rich flavor to the fore It has a good aftertaste that can be cut quickly. The rice polishing ratio is 80%. I don't understand the logic behind such a beautiful taste. I don't understand it at all. It is my own word of praise.

Fresh rice, fresh smell of milk that I've never smelled before. It tastes like a schwash, lees flavor, and the bitter part of the grapefruit is sharp and clean. Good! Dry. Easy to drink. The flavor comes out again, full and powerful. I see that the rarity is indicated by stars. It will be hard to find if you want this powerful feeling and clean dryness. The second day is also delicious.

Well, well, well. It is fresh and delicious, partly because it is a draft sake. It has a strong rice flavor because it is from a slightly higher region in Niigata. I like that.

Sake from the 100 rice bales brewery. This is my first time drinking sake from this brewery and I'm looking forward to it 😊. It has a delicious rice flavor, a little sweetness and freshness, but also surprisingly sharp and tasty. Thank you for the food 😆.
