At home. The first Yamanashi, the first day. It is the one for the summer. I had it cooled well, but it is refreshing and lightly dry. It is the summer sake which feels easy to drink. If you have it chilled or on the rocks, you will be able to open it immediately.

Yamanashi GET This sake has a sweet, fresh taste harmonized with a refreshing flavor. Accompanied by tuna and sea bream

Japanese>English

First Yamanashi sake ❣️ after my debut at Sake no Wa! I got the summer sake from Tang 😋. The label was refreshing and quite soppy😍. The taste is also refreshing 🏝. It tastes like melon🍈? Fruity, smooth, full and light, perfect for this time of the year 😆. This one will be available in no time at all. It's been a long time since I've tasted it, and it's as good as it should be.

I told the owner of Jutoku Sake Sales Office what I liked and he recommended this sake. He said it was fruity and refreshing. It's definitely sweet, but not overpowering. It was my first time to try green, and it was delicious.

Japanese>English

Yamada Nishiki. The sweetness flows smoothly and lingers along with the bitterness.

Japanese>English

I bought it because it said it was delicious in a wine glass. It has a subtle nice aroma and sweetness, but it's refreshing. I like that it's inexpensive. Yeah, it's delicious in a wine glass: ⭐️4

Today's second drink is from a long-established local brewery in Kanagawa Light and dry Relatively thin on the tongue, with a slight aroma of the yellow part of pudding. It has a light sweetness, followed by a slight sourness. The aftertaste is a little alcoholic. Polishing ratio 70%, Sake degree +4, 13% alc. The overall taste is light. The aroma is surprisingly pudding-like! However, it is not so sweet and the sourness comes quickly, so it is less pudding-like, but this is the first Junmai sake with a pudding-like, egg-like flavor, which is good. The back view of the cat on the label is also a bit melancholy and cute.

Japanese>English

Low alcohol, clean and dry type. Fireworks on the back of the label. The cat must have been watching it.

But the subtle saltiness, bitterness, cleanness, and spiciness are well balanced and nice. When paired with the pickled sea bream, it's refreshing ✨ and easy to drink without any resistance. But it might be a little less interesting 😅 If you pair it with marinated herring and dill, it's more interesting with more dill, but the sake might be less assertive. It might be a bit too much. Reset with fries. Umi to @Takadanobaba 20240709

At home. The third Nara sake without permission - ‼️. Kita Sake Brewery is located in Gobo-cho, Kashihara City and was founded in 1718. My son used to play baseball and we used to go to Sato Yakuhin Stadium near here. This is the first time for us to visit there. The aroma is not so strong, but there is a slight sweetness and alcohol. When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the sweetness, sourness, dryness, and the gradual feeling of alcohol. Oh, is this the ultimate in dryness? For now, I will only taste it tonight and wait for tomorrow to see how it changes. There was almost no change in taste after the second day. It is dry, but it has a sweet taste and is not unacceptable.

Japanese>English

Gohyakumangoku. Mellow sweetness and umami dominate. Slightly sour taste at the end.

Japanese>English

Miyogiku is a sake brewery located near Kashihara Shrine. I bought a Junmai sake and this Honjozo sake. It has a very high density of flavor and richness even in hiya, and the acidity is enough to go well with the drinks! It is also very well balanced in terms of both comfort and drinkability! It is even better when heated! This is wonderful! I bought a small bottle the day before because I had to buy a lot of things at Ise Jingu Shrine, but I want to buy another 4 bottles! Before going to the Kashihara Shrine, we went around the tombs around the shrine, and especially the Unebiyama Northeast Mausoleum was amazing! It was scary! Furthermore, although I must have been to Kashihara Shrine when I was a child, it looks bigger than the image I had when I was a child. Normally it should look smaller than it did when I was a child, but it was the opposite. I guess I felt the greatness of Kashihara Shrine.

The last bottle I brought back from Ueda. It was sweet in the mouth! Then it was immediately spicy! It's like a roller coaster with extreme tastes. I think it's a roller coaster.

A gift from a colleague from Ueda City. One sip, and first of all, it is beautiful! Elegant aroma and mellow, not too sweet. A taste for adults? It tastes like an adult.

Gold medal winner at the Delicious Sake in a Wineglass Awards 2023🍶. No cloying taste and a moderate sweetness. Sake with a clean, slightly dry throat that leaves an elegant aftertaste ✨.

I bought this one on my way back from Gifu. I had been curious about it for a long time and was troubled by the large number of local Nagano sake 😅. I was torn between the two and decided to buy this one. It was delicious and tasted exactly like sake! It went well with hot pot!

Japanese>English

It is tender and has an exquisite sweetness that spreads with a hint of bitterness. It is delicious.

January 29, 2024 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I had a casual drink with my junior colleague who recently got into Sake. The fourth glass was my first sake, Miyako Bijin The fourth glass was a freshly squeezed, light nigori sake of Miyako Bijin, which is a first for me. It is silky, sweet and bitter (with a weak bitterness). Silky, sweet and bitter (with a weak bitterness). The taste is silky, sweet and bitter (bitterness is weak) with a clean, fresh mouthfeel that does not give the impression of being Fresh taste with no alkaloids.

The first impression is sour 😣As you drink, you can feel the sourness and the rice flavor. The first impression is sour 😣As you continue to drink it, you can feel the sourness and the flavor of the rice, and above all, the sourness is a delicious sake that becomes a habit.

This is our first sake. It is Miyako Bijin Yamahai Tokujunmai Dark Blue Label Nama Genshu. It is a rich, sweet, sour and delicious sake with a lot of rice flavor.

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku and Nihonbare. If I had to describe it in one word, I would say it's "Omnivorous Japanese Sake Partridge". It has an old-fashioned flavor and an aged feeling like a hiyaoroshi. Spicy and sweet in equal measure, with a long finish. It's a sake that should be served warm. By the way, it's "Hiyaoroshi", but it's shipped all year round.

Japanese>English

I learned of the existence of this sake through non non's post. It was a little difficult to go there because you can only buy it at the direct sales place which is open only on weekdays.... It was a nice homey sake brewery 😊. It was limited to 100 bottles and they were the last 3 bottles. It's shwashy, sweet and sour. It may be a daiginjo, but it doesn't taste like yamahai and is easy to drink.
