(**) ☆*°🍶🍶🍶🍶 I got a Junmai Ginjo Hi-ire of Akishika🍁🦌 😀. When poured into a cup, it has an amber color that seems to be full of flavor ✨😍but the aroma is mild🤔In the mouth, it has a rich flavor typical of Yamadanishiki🥰 and acidity😊It is well balanced 😚👍. It is a delicious sake that can be drunk slowly at room temperature or warmed up 🥳.

Japanese>English

The first sip is different from what I imagined, it's massive. While tasting the unique flavor. After two or three sips. The clarity of the aftertaste. You can feel the "super dry".

Japanese>English

At home. First time in Osaka. The first ranking Akishika. On the first day, it had a strong alcoholic impression and was quite astringent, but on the second day, it became milder. The aroma is grainy and nutty. When you put it in your mouth, there is a slight alcohol feeling, but it has a clear throat feeling and is easy to drink.

Sagaminada...and my favorite Omachi...a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness...a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness! It's delicious on its own, but Sagaminada is a perfect food sake 🍶 for maximum performance! Today, I'm having a nabe (hot pot) 🫕♪ with "salted swordfish" from Minami-Boso as a side dish: .... I'm having a little bit of it...

Japanese>English

Fruity aroma of Omachi...sweet aroma...mouthfeel...ummmm Omachi's sweet rice flavor...nothing to say! Delicious... Sagaminada! It's great on its own... but it goes great with fish... and I'm having it with grilled barracuda... and sipping on it...

Japanese>English

It goes well with fish and seafood... I'm having it with bonito sashimi, bonito tataki, boiled skin, and today, sashimi of mehikari that I got during my expedition to Iwaki, Fukushima... I'm having it with small bites...! Aroma: Slightly smells like seme, yes, Sagaminada...strong bitterness, sweet bitterness! Then it's sharp!

Today's beer is also nigori! I started to open the lid to get some of the top clear water at first, but then it started to squirt and agitate. It's like a snow globe! When I drank the stirred sake, it was surprisingly dry. The texture on the tongue is not so much silky as smooth. No, it's smooth. The alcohol content seems to be high,

Japanese>English

Jay & Nobby's Tochigi ❤️ Another delicious Tochigi sake on the flight! Ona‼️ This is the first nigori of the season😊. The aroma is subdued ❗️ The taste is like muscat. Silky on the tongue with just the right amount of bitterness Moderate bitterness❗️ The sweetness is also nice and moderate👍

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Mashidaya's special order Ona: ❗️ Fruity aroma and moderate sweetness 😊. The second day, the umami flavor increases and it's good 😄. The bitterness gives it a sharp taste and it goes well with meals too‼️ The Mashidaya collection is all delicious. I recommend it because of its good cost performance👍

Aroma: Fresh and clean, with a hint of citrus? Sweet and tasty, with a good amount of bitterness in the aftertaste...sharp! Good as a food sake 🍶...but like last time, personally, it is not my favorite sake 🍶I would like to try other specs of Tobiroki...

Japanese>English

Mild ginjo aroma. It is suitable for sipping. It is also suitable as a sake for eating. Of course, it can also be used by itself. It is an all-purpose type.

Japanese>English

Has it been a little while? Tobiroki that was sleeping in the fridge! Opening the bottle♪ Refreshing citrus aroma, strong bitter sweetness and bitterness from the first sip. .... Hmmm! Unlike the sake I had imagined, it is dry? Is this the kind of sake it is? Is it light and dry? I guess it's possible if it's a food sake 🍶... Personally, I'm not a fan of it...

I was in Himeji and went to the Tatsuriki store 😊. Daiginjo with a pretty refreshing taste, dry I guess? I haven't had a sake like this lately.

Japanese>English

( -̀ᴗ-́ ) ̖́-🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we opened a bottle of Shinryu Nishiki that we purchased at the Tatsuriki store in Himeji station😃. The aroma is gorgeous and pear-like 😊The rounded mouthfeel, overall mild acidity and umami 😄Great crispness that disappears quickly 😘I felt it was an easy sake to pair with a meal 🥳. The last picture is of the Japanese garden next to Himeji Castle. It was very beautiful and relaxing 🥰.

Japanese>English

This is my last post of the year😊. Thank you all so much for being with us this year! Please take care of yourselves and let's enjoy another year of good drinks🥰 Now, this sake has an otona taste ✨👠 It's a little dry, with a good combination of flavor and richness, and it's even sexy💖. I wonder if it's the precious rice that makes it so or if the brewer is good at it, it's so good 👏! Next time I come across it again I will definitely buy it 🎵.

(๑-̀ㅂ-́)و🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today was my first time to try Ganki 😃. The aroma is mild😊The mouthfeel is dry but the umami spreads slowly 😚The balance between soft acidity and umami is good 😘I drank it cold this time, but it is light and comfortable to drink and will go well with any food 🥰I will try it a little warmer next time 🥳.

February 9, 2024 Evening drink at home. Drinking sake with 7-day-old ku-e. This day's accompaniment is GANKI Junmai Ginjo Mizunowa. day's accompaniment was GANKI Junmai Ginjo Mizunowa. It is full It has a fruity and soft sweetness and soft sweetness, but it does not disturb the meal. It has a light and refreshing mouthfeel. It is delicious with sashimi and roughly pounded nameko mushrooms. I enjoyed it with sashimi with great flavor and roughly pounded nameko mushrooms.

Japanese>English

This year's Hiyaoroshi starts here. It's been a while since I've bought a GANKI because of the label, but it's still stable and delicious 😀. The first glass after taking it out of the fridge was too refreshing, but after the second glass, the rice flavor and the elegant sweetness are well balanced, and the food and sake go well together😋. The price was reasonable and I was satisfied with the bottle👍.

Summer drinking is still in full swing! This time I got to try Manzaku no Hana no Snowman😋. The label is comforting⛄️and the contents are refreshing, sweet and crisp, different from the Umakara Manzaku I drank before😆. I had a hard time deciding between it and the other one at the store, but I'm glad I bought it👍. I gulped it down💦.

Japanese>English

(Holy shit! 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I've had the Manzaku no Hana Megurume for a while now, and I've been wondering why it doesn't have any aroma at all 🤔, but when I drank it, I found it to be well balanced with a hint of sweetness and a slight astringency. It's also a good idea to have a gentle sake 钎存米 series 🤤.

Japanese>English

Today we got our first Hinomaru Brewing mansaku flowers in a long time 😀. The aroma is mild, but even though it is fire-aged, it has a fresh feeling like a draft sake 😊It has a refreshing acidity 😋 It has a good sharpness, so it is a delicious sake that you will never get tired of drinking 🥰. Mansaku no Hana is still a delicious sake 🥳.

( ´ ´ ` )🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we had a bottle of A-Sakura purchased at Murai, a local sake brewery 😄A collaboration product with A-Sakura? I found it in a corner shop in Akita station 🤔. The aroma is a gorgeous ginjo aroma, and the dryness comes after the umami of the rice 😚 It has a nice sharpness and would go well with any food 😘The description "umami dry" is right on the money 😙I felt it was like a royal road sake 😀.

Japanese>English

Second drink~♪ Yes, a sip and a piquant! Ah, here comes the taste of sizzling rice after a nice spiciness ˃˃. Super nice and dry Junmai! I drank it all while thinking "So that's what this is all about!

I'm not sure if it's a good idea 🥂. I bought this sake out of curiosity when I saw it at the store 😅It was a gorgeous and delicious junmai ginjo sake 😋.
