This is a junmai sake from the north of the Kinjitake Brewery. The sweetness comes from the mild umami. It is a delicious sake with a good acidity followed by a bitter taste. I had it at room temperature. It is a good one👍🍶🎶.

I guess this is one of the answer songs to the real Kin Fat reviewed by Manachie 😅. I sometimes stock a series of small bottles for when I want to drink a little 🎵Hokkaido is brewed by Kinteki Shuzo 🎵Kinteki...no, Kinteki 😉 Not much aroma, spicy, watery sake, light bitterness 🍶 I felt rice on the aftertaste 😃. Classical but good for eating ❗

The driest I've had on the same day.

Japanese>English

I heard from an acquaintance that Sakuta was delicious and ordered it because there was no special distributor near me and it was in the hometown tax payment. Since it was a set of two bottles, I received it with sincerity. Ginjo-shu with brewing alcohol Fruity ginjo aroma like muscat, sweetness and umami at first, but lingering in the middle as if it were crystal clear water, and later acidity comes in and it is a refreshing dry sake.

Good balance of bitterness and sweetness.

Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai I could not forget to participate this year: ‼️ Rice used is unknown Juicy and soft on the palate. The richness is low-pasteurized, which I like. The aftertaste is moderately bitter, which is also good. ❣️

Rikuu 132. Full-bodied with umami and pungency until the mid-palate. A slight sourness comes in the middle and lasts until the end.

I've had Kanazawa-ya from the same brewery at an outing, but this is my first time drinking it. I had never heard of rice called "Takaneminori" before. It has a fresh aroma with a hint of cemedine. The impression is that it fades out after a pause from the refreshing feeling, followed by a gutsy sweet flavor. It is a new sake, but it has a strong umami.

☆☆☆☆☆ Sweet ripeness. It's good with a slight old wine feel.

Tonight, our first series of impactful jackets here 💁. It's Taxi Driver🚕🚕🚕🚕. It was shipped from the brewery in April this year, but what a H30BY (R0BY) and it's a 5 year aged sake 😆. The aroma of old sake, which also smells like Shaoxing wine, is in full swing from the moment the bottle is opened 🤣. It was served cold, but it is easy to drink because of its acidity. It would be good to drink it warmed up in the fall. ☺️ I wonder if it would go well with Chinese food since it has a Shaoxing sake-like flavor, and I'm going to research how to drink it based on other sakewa reviewers 💪. But it's a very intoxicating drink so I'll stop after one cup 😓.

Japanese>English

First drink. Weak fruity feeling that I didn't imagine from the label that has impact. But it is also full. There is a miscellaneous taste (my personal feeling) like the Yamahai brewing style with low rice polishing, but it is a moderate level, so I feel it is unique. It has just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy my preference for sweetness. I enjoyed it with a plate of delicious sashimi (´ω).

#Akasaka-mitsuke# I entered the second restaurant. This is a restaurant that was not there a few months ago. I wanted to try a drink from here at least once. Let's have it 😚. Slightly spicy? It has a little bit of a tune. I see 🤔 it tastes like this.

Mutenzo of Tachibanakura Shuzo, which we visited during our Saku Sake brewery tour in GW. My wife bought it as a souvenir. It is sweet and delicious. The sweetness is still there, but it is not too strong, and the spiciness finishes it off. Delicious.

From the jacket, I thought it would be a light, dry, smooth and elegant type 🤔. When I drank it, I found it to be medium dry with a solid richness and flavor... 😋 I felt like we suddenly became friends🎶. Sauteed peppers with salted kelp (salted kelp flavor), turban shells in a jar, goes well with a variety of Japanese food😻 It's also a great gift 👍✨.

At the tasting. It's clean, clear and beautiful. Not bad, but I'll hold off. There was a tasting of the raw Izono, but they didn't have it in stock, so I didn't drink it. I'm interested in the raw version.

I usually don't drink that much 🍷 and 🍶 a little vacation. I only drink Nouveau 🍷 at a small wine specialty shop owned by the owner, who has experience as the best sommelier in Japan every year. (I told him that I actually like Sake and he said that he only drinks Obuse Sogape and one other sake brewery for everyday drinking...I'm curious...wait a minute...he came from the back and brought me this! I'm sorry, I don't know this brewery...but they have hiyaoroshi and yamahai. So he shared his favorite hiyaoroshi with me! It's easy to drink, has a nice mouthfeel, and is dry with a nice flavor and sharpness. It's also delicious and reminds me of a white wine! The Nouveau chosen by the owner this year was expensive... but he said he had no choice because of the weak yen and the international situation.

Sweet and bitter with a bitter aftertaste. It has a bitter aftertaste with a sweet and bitter aftertaste... It is a mellow dry sake... It does not have a cloying taste... It is a good match for strong flavored dishes... Although it is not the latest popular sake, it has a presence that says you are drinking sake. ...this is delicious in its own way...
