Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - A Spectacle of Sake and Food in Shikoku Junmai Arigokudaimai Very graininess and fullness, enhanced by acidity and astringency, but it needs to be heated. A heated sake corner is a must! Yamadanishiki 80 This one is also very dry and powerful! I asked where they sell it... Seriously, I have nothing to do! I want to go to Hattori Ryokuchi and buy some!

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.

I was curious about the label "for advanced drinkers" and bought it. It has a peculiar aroma like an old sake, with a hint of sourness. Thick taste Not easy to drink, but I like it very much.

Unfiltered raw sake & Asahi rice for 2,530 yen including tax is a super deal ‼️ It is not so fresh, but has a refreshing mouthfeel with a slight sense of maturity. The rich umami comes in smoothly, and the finish is crisp and tight. It has a good balance of bitterness, bitterness, and sweetness, and is the type of sake that one does not get tired of drinking as an unfiltered, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. It is a good sake to drink with food or as an evening drink. ❗️ It was delicious. ❣️

Japanese>English

It tastes a little bit like aged, but it has all the sweetness, flavor, bitterness, and spiciness you would expect. It tastes like tea. It tastes like apple tea. It is a slightly different type of flavor. It tastes juicy, sweet and spicy. Some people may find it spicy, but it's a subtle taste.

Japanese>English

Sake purchased on the way home from a BBQ at Wakata's house It is not very sweet, or rather slightly spicy, but has a strong umami flavor. It is bursting with Omachi character. The latter half and the aftertaste are very fruity. It was made in April, but I wonder if it has been in the warehouse. It seems to have matured a little 🤔. Well, I don't mind it because I think Wasshin has a positive effect on the quality of sake even if it has an aged feel. I think it might be the same as the sake I bought about 3 years ago with the plague banished label, but it didn't have the tea-like taste that I felt in the sake I drank before 🤔. I was thinking tea-like = Wasshin. The Junmai Daiginjo I drank at the Sakai Off-line Meeting in June also didn't have the tea-like taste, so maybe it depends on the BY.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

Takashimaya Sake Festival This is the first time for Inatahime. The aroma was not so strong, but the taste of rice came out in a mild flavor, and the mouthfeel was very pleasant. It was delicious 😁.

Japanese>English

I decided to make a last spurt to conquer the whole country 🤣Tottori and Shimane, I don't get to see them very often so I popped a bottle 😂I'm opening it all at once👍. First, Inatahime‼️. The name is "Gouriki rice". The name sounds powerful😁. The flavor comes fast and furious! The sweetness is only slightly perceptible and the sharpness finishes quickly😋. When you drink it with octopus wassa, the sweetness also appears and it is delicious👍.

I ordered this brand because I was somewhat curious about the name, but the last glass was less than half the amount I ordered. It was quite tasty, but I wanted to taste a little more. I hope I will be able to encounter it again.

This is the first time for me to drink Jukishin except for Yumachi. I was wondering what Nemuchi-san was drinking. It's almost the same as Nemuchi's review, but it's a bittersweet, melon-like, and bitter. It's not as sweet as I thought it would be, but it's delicious in its own way 😋.

At a very local festival held in front of Hitachiota Station When a local sake brewery has a stall, local sake drinkers go to support it. The fact that you can drink daiginjo-nama-sake for only 500 yen a brew is also a local event! Sweet and mellow Fruity acidity and bitterness finish it off. It may seem like a waste to pair it with festival food like yakitori and fries, but this is one of the best parts of local events!

Purchased at Mito Jizake Bar Tasting Matsumori test brewed sake Nigori sake-like sweet sake aroma Fresh, juicy, dark, sweet and tasty acidity A touch of honey as it warms up. The brewer says it goes well with blue cheese. It's like putting honey on blue cheese. It goes well with other cheeses too. It has a strong flavor, so it can be used with satsuma-mucho.
