There is no description, but it has a light nigori taste. It has a slightly richer flavor than the Dewa Sanzan that I drank recently. The rice seems to be well melted. As expected from Omachi, there is nothing to say 🤣.

Japanese>English

June 3, 2023 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I took a new employee to my favorite restaurant to drink sake. The fifth sake was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Gin The fifth cup was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginzoku Gekidaku. It is made from Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and It is a limited-edition shipment of a well-balanced blend of Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa-Tsanbai junmai ginjo. It is a blend of Yamada Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa Tsannin Junmai Ginjo in good balance. It is very thick, but has a nice sharpness. It is a dry sake that is thick, but has a nice sharpness and is very refreshing to drink. It is a dry sake that can be drunk very refreshingly. Fried raw wood ear, fried raw wood ear, and assorted tempura (so good that we ordered it again). and assorted tempura (which was very good, so I ordered it again). The sake was very good.

This combination was badass! The well-seasoned daikon and the refreshing umami taste of Yamagata Masamune go perfectly together🤣. Haa~ happy☺️!

I got this as a prize in a golf competition. This is my first time brewing Yamahai, and I will enjoy it slowly on the weekend.

Japanese>English

(*^_^*)Western-style drink. The first Tengu-Mai cup sake. The color is a little yellowish. It tastes like a very strong sake. This is the essence of sake, isn't it?

Japanese>English

It's so rich! It's not that bad! I can certainly feel the thickness of the flavor! I can't detect much acidity. I couldn't detect much acidity. I can't feel it, I like it because it is very rich!

How would you like another round of strangling? Gorin appeared on the menu. The concept of this sake is to be served during a meal, and it is certainly modest. Mild compared to Tengumai. Probably, it is not a Yamahai sake. Serve with warm sushi with milt or conger eel.

Japanese>English

It has a moderate acidity and a good mouthfeel❗️It is a sake with a high quality umami feeling (^^) It is good as a sake for eating 😁.

Japanese>English

I shared my partner's order at Tsuji Shuhan's sake tasting space in Yamanaka Onsen. It's dry and refreshing. It seems to go well with any kind of food. Personally, I preferred the Tedorigawa that I chose.

2) Matsuura Ichi Sake Brewery ✨9th Omachi Summit Ginjo-Shu Category Honorable Mention ✨. Made with up to 50% polished Omachi from Akaban! Now, a sip...hmmm...this one is delicious too! Mild aroma 😳👍 Refreshing in the mouth with a touch of acidity. The umami is also great!

Japanese>English

It is a very crisp junmai sake with a good acidity level. It has a rich and expansive flavor. It is more crisp when heated. When heated, the umami is moderate and you can taste the astringency. I served it with chilled tofu, and it really brings out the flavor of the chilled tofu. Even if you don't serve it with cold tofu, you can still enjoy the taste. I often drink dry sake, so I think it is dry by my standards. I often drink dry sake, so I think it is dry by my standards, but it is a very good sake! Mr. Ota was in Shinjuku again! I still admire Golden Gai!

Japanese>English

The purpose of my visit to Kawanishi Sake Sales was this. Although it is not written on the label, the sake was labeled as unfiltered raw sake at the store. Unlike the label, it is fruity and modern. It has a refreshing and light taste, but the second half is a bit dry. It has a slightly gaseous taste. It is a bit like Eiko-Fuji, but a little spicier. I wrote it in a subtle way, but it is quite tasty with a good sweetness and flavor. I would like to try the Junmai Ginjyo Nama as well. I think it tastes better after the second day than on the first day.

At home. This is my first Shiga, Matsunoji. The aroma is gorgeous and has a slight semedyne smell. There is a sweetness and a little tingling in the mouth, and there is an alcohol feeling that goes through the nose, but it is clear and light and easy to drink. The Kinki region was filled with this.

Japanese>English

This is the Tsukasa Matsunosuke version of the "Face Up, Little by Little, Forward" series. The situation of the Corona disaster is still severe, but still we should not give up hope and cherish what we can do now. Just like the athletes working hard in the Olympics right now😌. This sake has a refreshing melon flavor with a hint of rice 😋. This is the first time I've ever tried it with eel kabayaki. It's so good! I finally filled in the map of the Kansai area 😙.

Japanese>English

Refreshing, delicious, and oicy 🍶. This is good ✨🌸 I enjoy it very much.

It is a punchy sake with a strong rice flavor, sweetness, and alcohol. It seems to go well with any dishes.

Japanese>English

It's an Ibaraki sake bar, but they also sell a lot of small bottles 😆. So I bought a small bottle as a souvenir 🤣. I wanted to drink hot sake, so I chose this one that looks good for hot sake. This is Tsuki no I of Oarai ❗️ Yumbe Yokocho is the best place to drink, just stick the bottle in ❤️. I'll have it at 50°C 😋😋. Nice caramel color. And the aged aroma that smells powwow. It has a gentle, light, sweet mouthfeel and a moderate acidity. It has a gentle, light, sweet mouthfeel with just the right amount of acidity and a nice, sweet taste. I paired it with shime saba (mackerel) and it's great ☺️. The vinegariness that is unique to shime saba is refreshingly clean, yet the sweetness and umami of the sake is still there 😋. I thought it would be a bit more dry, but it wasn't as dry as I thought it would be 😉. Ibaraki sake review rate is going up because of the Ibaraki sake bar 😂.

Junmai 🍶. This one is also warmed up 🍶 slightly bitter and light for its age ✨. Delicious when savored carefully. A little creamy and bitter with Hoya (Japanese sea squirt) marinated in miso. Dry. The texture is like a scallop without the smell. Sake and Robata Yaki Unari @ Omiya 20231122

I wanted to try my first Osaka sake, Akushika, but I found Kurehaaru at my favorite izakaya... a traditional local sake. It's a good sake for a mid-meal drink. Yes! Local sake. The flavor is as expected.

Japanese>English

After enjoying Fushimi's soft water hot springs in Kyoto, I spent the last part of my trip in Osaka👍. Since it was a special occasion, we had a drink at Kurehaaru, which we hadn't had in a year, and some oden and kushikatsu! The aroma is almost imperceptible. It has a refreshing taste on the palate, but the robust flavor of the rice comes on later. Still, it is lighter than other Osaka sake and has a moderate sweet and spicy taste. It has no habits and goes perfectly with oden ✨.

Japanese>English

Kureshun that was at the place I went to eat today. I thought it must be pure rice, but the sweetness won out. But it was my first time to drink sake from Osaka, so I enjoyed it. Goes well with soba noodles.

Koshihikari is used. A little sweetness from the hit. The aftertaste is smooth.

Japanese>English

I've been sober for a few days, but I've lifted the ban. Is it the limited sake prepared for the Niigata Sake Festival? The usual brand is called "Tenjinbayashi". It has a juicy and rich sweet taste. It has a sweet taste that is not like Niigata sake. It is not fruity and the aroma is a bit quirky. It may be different for each taste. It is sweet, but it has a chunky sweetness...

Japanese>English

We were at a tasting and sales event at the sake department of "Yoshike" in Okachimachi, and asked "Do you have any nama-shu? I asked them if they had any fresh sake, and they recommended this freshly squeezed raw sake. The label depicts Tokamachi's national treasure, the Kaen-gata Jomon pottery. We paired it with a motsu nabe (hot pot). Speaking of freshly squeezed raw sake in this season, I prefer to drink SNAKEIHARIZURU, but Tenjinbayashi's sake is also very smooth and rich with 20 degrees alcohol by volume, which made me drink a four-pack. It was a dangerous sake 😅. The origin of the sake name "Tenjinbayashi" is a celebratory song in the Uonuma area of Niigata Prefecture, sung at weddings and banquets. It is sung at weddings and banquets. It has a unique beauty of style, and when chanted in unison, it is a move that raises the tension of the banquet hall.

I got this one at my wife's parents' house. I've drunk Rumiko-san before, but this is the first time I've had an active muddy one😙. After 10 minutes of opening and closing the bottle, I finally made a toast🍾 It's fresh and crispy❣️and tingly❣️. It's got a nice sourness and bitterness to it 😆. I think I may have drunk the most 🤪! Thanks for the treat🙏.

I've been drinking a lot of cold sake lately, so I had it heated for the first time in a while 🥰. The rice flavor is very strong and perfect for warming up ️. The mild and soothing taste is very relaxing 😊.
