Purchased at Yokohama Takashimaya Rice used is Kame-no-o type Koshihikari produced in Kasama City The alcohol is a little strong, but the taste is smooth and not like an unfiltered draft. It has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness and is refreshingly clean❣️. There aren't many unfiltered sake that are good all-around food sake, but this one seems to go well with all kinds of food❣️.

Japanese>English

Well, it has a solid rice feeling and no acidity ☺️. I think it's a little light in character, but But I can't help but drink more😋. @Kasama Masuya

Japanese>English

It has a gorgeous aroma, a concentrated flavor of rice, and a crisp, well-defined taste.

All Gunma Maifu Drinking Set. This time it's Tonenishiki from Nagai Honke in Numata. I've been a customer here for a long time. The color is pale yellow. The original aroma of the rice stands out. It has a rich taste with a sense of maturity. It has the richness that is typical of pure rice, and has a relatively classic taste.

Japanese>English

Sweet and sour, delicious cold, room temperature 111111 Easy to drink, slightly dry Honjozo Dangerous sake that you can drink easily.

Japanese>English

From the Tone Nishiki brewery, the second in the dancing series, "Dancer". Low-alcoholic sake with a high koji ratio. Chilled. Aromatic or rather sweet aroma with a somewhat mucky atmosphere that reaches deep into the head. It has a complex flavor with a mild, firm sweetness and a grain-like hardness. The acidity gives a clear flavor profile, and there is enough umami to give a satisfying but not lingering sharpness. This may be a flavor I have never tasted before.

Yamashu No. 4. The first sip is mild, but the aroma and umami layers are gradually building up. The back mouth is full-bodied and the taste is quiet.

Japanese>English

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka ㊹ Tokyo Booth (2) Tamura Sake Brewery is located in Fussa City. Representative brand is Kaisen. ◉Tamura Junmai Ginjo Tamura Junmai Ginjo is made from Iwate Prefecture's Gingin Gin. It is a rich, mellow, sweet and umami type of sake, with a deep, full-bodied flavor. It also has a slightly complex, rustic flavor. The Tamura series does not limit itself to any specific sake rice, but uses carefully selected sake rice from all over Japan in pursuit of the depth of flavor that comes from the "difference in rice".

I had never seen this brand before, so I couldn't resist buying it. This is a sake brewery in Shunan City, Yamaguchi. There are about 1,400 sake breweries in Japan, so it's no wonder that there are breweries and brands that I don't know (there are more than 1,000 here). Even if I were to drink one brand every day for the rest of my life, it would take me almost 30 years (^_^;) It's simply impossible. This was an aside. The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma is distinctive. I wonder what it is, is it the aroma of rice? In total, the aroma is fluffy, the taste is tangy, and the sweetness is warm. I think it's delicious.

A valuable sake that can only be bought for two days a year 牡牡 Dry, crisp, and delicious❗ You can gulp it down, but it's a dangerous drink with an alcohol content of 20 degrees (lol)

Japanese>English

☀️ Masamune hunters go today🍶. Today we visited the Tottori & Okayama Antenna Shops, a place of relaxation for Masamune hunters 📡. As soon as I arrived there, I started looking for Masamune and found it 🤩. It's sake 🍶. It has a crisp, Hakka-like aroma. It is also very refreshing on the throat. The umami of the rice is subdued, and then there is a subdued sweetness and an equally subdued acidity. Overall, it has a light and simple taste 😙. It is probably best suited as a food sake 🍶. The Hakka flavor, combined with the oiliness of the food, seems to help the oil from the food to be washed away quickly 😁. Nice Masamune👍

Japanese>English

The 800 check-in is the H27BY (2015 brewing year) Sanko Masamune from which Toji Takagaki retired 😆. We were lucky to get it 😊. This is the only sake from Mr. Takagaki but we are holding Takagaki festival 😅🍶. When opened in the fridge, it smells slightly like a soy sauce warehouse (there was a soy sauce warehouse in my neighborhood when I was a kid) or Shaoxing sake. It's a dry and light sake when cold. Sanko is still a warmed sake, so I'd recommend heating it up 🍶. The top aroma is the aromatic aroma of a freshly heated sake. When heated, it does not have a matured aroma. In the mouth, you first feel sharp acidity and spiciness. The acidity is not as strong as that of Sanko Tenpyo's Namahashi or Yamahai, but it is quite good. There is a slight sweetness and a beautiful umami that does not make you feel the rice polishing ratio of 72%. This is a perfect food sake 🍶😊. I don't know if this is the original taste since it is an old sake, but it was deeply delicious 😌. After retiring, he returned to farm near his hometown, but unfortunately, he died in a field accident last year 🥲. I learned of his death when I saw a relative of his on Instagram late last May with a picture of H27BY "Katsumasa" to inform me of his passing. A toast to Mr. Katsumasa Takagaki 😌🍶. The fourth picture is a sake from the brewery where Mr. Takagaki worked in the past.

( -̀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 🥰.

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 🎵.
