I had a drink with my boss at Sennariya near my house after work. We drank too much that day, and I remembered that I had taken a picture of it by now. I think I drank it before...(^o^;) Well, I must have ordered it because I remembered it was good. I'm sure it's not dry from my taste. After that, I had a few drinks, but only Aouda took a picture. The next day I had a hangover. I need to drink more maturely.

Today we had a little late lunch after visiting Yame, Setaka, and Yanagawa. While waiting for the eels to be steamed in the "seiro" in Yanagawa, we checked in at Kitaya in Yame, which we had visited in the morning. The third photo is the main building of Kitaya. They were selling sake, but no tasting was available, unfortunately 🥲. Well, the top aroma is fruity sweet. In the mouth, there is a juicy sweetness and a refreshing acidity. A little sweet and not at all like Yamahai 🙄 but it was delicious ✨🍶.

This one was given to me in return for sake I sent to my boss, and it's my first Fukuoka Prefecture sake! I didn't know what to choose when it came to Fukuoka sake, so I'm very grateful to be able to drink it in this form! It is a well-balanced and delicious sake. The most wonderful thing about this sake is that it is fire-aged, so it is hard to lose this flavor. It tastes great even after a few days. Although there is sweetness, it does not bother you too much because the main flavor is umami. What is this feeling of being able to drink without getting tired of it? It is not so much sourness, bitterness, or astringency, and it is strange that it is smooth but somehow deep and earthy. Actually, I forgot to post this post after drinking it, but I had this one for New Year's Day. This kind of aromatic and light sake was definitely a good match for Japanese dishes like Osechi. My first Fukuoka sake was a simple and good sake.

Japanese>English

It has a good fruity aroma and taste. It was refreshing and easy to drink.

100% Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima, Fukuoka Prefecture. It has a firm taste. It is not spectacular, but it has a umami taste and is dry. but it has a delicious flavor and dry taste. It went well with the bitterness of the roasted yellowtail.

Purchased at a local liquor store...Yamada Nishiki, ✖️ Gohyakumangoku = Koshitanrei, 100% sake rice from Niigata Prefecture. Sweet! It's more of a drink to enjoy on its own than a midday drink... it's a beginner's drink... women will love it... and since it's unfiltered, it's unfiltered, you can drink it on the rocks with ice... yup!

Japanese>English

The aroma is gorgeous and sweet. When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness of rice is a little different from the fruity flavor. I wonder if it is. Cold sake was delicious.

Japanese>English

Koshitanrei. Sweetness from the periphery to the aftertaste. With a fresh umami taste.

I went shopping at Aeon today and found this Toko on the shelf near the expiration date in the sake section. I've never had a sake from Yamagata before so I bought this one. It's a dry and robust sake ☺️. I like the taste. I thought I've never had a sake from Yamagata prefecture but I did. I had a hard time deciding between it and Nanbu Bijin but it didn't matter.

This sake was established in the Azuchi-Momoyama period and is made by Kojima Sohonten in Yonezawa. It has a melon-like fruity taste. It has a refreshing and delicious taste.

August 13, 2023 Dinner at home. In the latter half of the 9-day weekend, the family enjoys a gift from my sister. The first thing we did was to drink Toko sake as an aperitif.

It has a very strong ginjo aroma and a mouthfeel reminiscent of Torikai, a rice shochu (perhaps because it is based on Kastori shochu?). (Is it because it is based on a sake lees shochu?). It is very rich, so it can be drunk on the rocks or on the rocks. It has a very rich flavor, so it tastes very It has a strong flavor when drunk on the rocks.

I heard a voice actor say that the sake of Yamaguchi Prefecture is delicious ottersai, but Toyo Bijin! So I bought it. It's very dry, and the first sip is so spicy that it's hard to believe, but the aftertaste disappears quickly. Yes, it is indeed delicious. I want to drink the other ones too. This is good. I also got some sake for the new year, but I'll post more about that in the New Year.

Japanese>English

I'm not going to let anything stop me. Lightly crisp, fruity, sweet and sour aroma. Melon Horseback or Pear Because it is origari, it is light white. The aftertaste is moderately sour and refreshing. It is easy to drink and is perfect for when you want to lift your spirits.

Japanese>English

This is my first Toyo Bijin. I had drunk Yachiyo Shuzo's Room twice and wondered what kind of Toyo Bijin was in its class, but I happened to find it at a store I had been visiting for a while, so I bought it on the spur of the moment! The standing aroma is tropical and a bit gorgeous with pineapple and melon fruits. Is this the sweetness of Oriental Beauty? The sweetness is firm but moist and not stinging! There is also an impression of peach in addition to the fruits mentioned earlier. It is sweet, but not unpleasantly so, and has a very elegant bitterness, so it can be paired with appetizers, such as salads and cheese. This is the taste of Miyamanishiki of Hanahayo and Junodai of Hachitanishiki, right? This is delicious! Speaking of fruity sweet sake without any corners, Ding was great, but Toyo Bijin is also great!

This sake is made from 100% Celebration Rice, which is only produced in Kyoto. The taste was full and soft, like grandchildren's rice of Yamadanishiki. Delicious.

Japanese>English

Nice fruity aroma ♫ Slight sweetness, not too sweet. A little full-bodied, with some bitterness. I guess it's a medium mouthfeel, right between rich and light. This is a product that I brought home from the supermarket because it had been standing on the shelf in a box for a long time or had been reduced in price. The store is air-conditioned and boxed and not affected by light, so even though the item was two years old, it was not in a bad state of preservation. This is the third time I have tasted Ancient Capital Sennen, following the 18-set tasting at Fushimi Sake Brewery Alley and at a sake event at a department store, but this was not one of many tastings, and when I took the time to drink it like this, it was as good as I expected, as was 24h. This is a gem that should not be underestimated just because it was sold in a supermarket.

At home. First time on Mt. Ena ~ ‼️ I thought it was absolutely delicious and bought it. And I opened the bottle immediately. Well, the aroma is gorgeous. It is smooth, fruity, and has a perfect balance of sweet and sour tastes. ‼️ It is also very easy to drink, so it was a perfect choice. ‼️ My son, who was with me, took a sip and tasted it. He said, "It has a noticeable sourness. He understood very well. I felt that our family's level of Japanese sake tasting is improving little by little.

8,800 yen for 1,800ml. Polishing ratio 40 An empty bottle of Houraisen, which is hard to find. It was opened at a New Year's party at my parents' house. It had not been drunk in quite a while. It has a gorgeous aroma, and when you drink it, you will find that it has a refreshing sweetness with a dry aftertaste. It is not too sweet, and the refreshing taste makes it easy to drink. I had an image of it being sweet, but it is not too sweet, and I got the impression that it would go well with snacks. As expected of Sora, it was delicious.

Second drink last night 🍶. I enjoyed it very much(^-^)/

Japanese>English

The fourth and final bottle I bought from Gonoi Sake Store's free shipping campaign is Karahashi, which is one of my favorite brands ❗ As I wrote in my previous review, it is brewed by Homare Shuzo, the family of freelance announcer Yumi Karahashi 😘. I've had the Yamada Nishiki black kara-hashi a few times before, but I've missed the Yume-no-Koh white kara-hashi a few times at my local liquor store, so I took this opportunity to pop it ☝️. The upfront aroma is a hint of strawberry🍓. It's sweet and delicious at first, but after swallowing, the bitter and sour aftertaste spreads slowly. It's dry compared to Haneya's Aizan, which I opened just before, but I like it because it's not overpowering, and it goes well with almost anything😄. It's a shame that the brand name is not registered on Sake no Wa... 😢.

Japanese>English

This is a raw sake from Karahashi that I drank last month: ❗️ It was so delicious and well balanced that I had to buy it because I wanted to drink nama-sake 😊. I bought it because I wanted to drink a nama sake 😊. The aroma is subdued, but it has a freshness and a hint of gas that is typical of nama-shu. Delicious with freshness and a hint of gasiness ‼️ It tastes more Japanese sweetness🤔 than fruity and elegant. It tastes elegant and elegant. ❗️ It has no acidity, but it has an aftertaste that quickly disappears. It's a delicious sake that you won't get tired of drinking👍
