Yoshida Kurau - Kijo Sake REMIX IMAYA HANPUKAI SAKE 2024 Co. Yoshi Sake Brewery Sake from Ishikawa Prefecture I can feel the gasiness, the acidity at the beginning, the sweetness, and the bitterness. It's a mellow type of sake because of the sake's assertiveness. It is a delicious sake.

Japanese>English

It has a stable taste. The acidity is not strong, the sweetness is not spitting out, and in a good sense, it does not show the strength of its individuality. It is a sake like "Houken", which is made by adding the elements of good sake to good water. It is a sake that is best suited as a food sake. It is a delicious sake.

Japanese>English

It is said that this sake was made by a former motorcycle gang in Hiroshima. Is it my imagination that I feel the bitterness of life?

It has a sour yogurt-like aroma And a fruity aroma like an apple. I'm not sure if it's carbonated water or not. It's so gassy❗️ I think it's a little too much carbonation😭. Holy shit, a little sweet, a little sour, it's so good! It's dry and easy to drink! I can drink it like a juice😍.

Aizan 45% polished It goes in quickly and the berry flavor of Aizan comes, and the flavor spreads with just the right amount of alcohol. It is a Daiginjo, but it has a strong umami taste.

Japanese>English

Perhaps because I expected too much from the orikagarami, the taste was different from what I expected. The rice flavor was delicious, but it was a little dry and I wanted a little more gas and acidity. The unique rice flavor of orikagara is strong, so I will enjoy it.

My wife has a slight taste disorder, but since she couldn't spend time at her parents' house 😊, we treated her to another New Year's meal 🎍. The wine to go with it was "Kyo no Hana" purchased at our favorite liquor store in Kushiro, Sagajo Shoten. I was torn between this and "Tatsusen" brewed by the same brewery, neither of which I had ever tasted before, but I chose this one because of the "fantastic rice" description 😊. Kyo no Hana No.1! There really are a lot of different sake rice varieties available: ‼️ It has a sharpness that is typical of Fukushima sake, but at the same time, it has a moist and gradually delicious flavor 😋.

Japanese>English

Kyo-no-Hana from the sake bag I bought in Fukushima. It is sweet but not too sweet, so it is very tasty. Today I paired it with chawanmushi (steamed egg custard), grilled hanpen cheese with mentaiko (cod roe), and ahi jio with nori (dried seaweed), all of which went very well together.

Japanese>English

It is a very tasty, clean and crisp sake. It is a well-balanced and good food sake. It went well with chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) and ahi jus. ★★★★

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.

Since we are staying at Bessho Onsen, we had a sake from Ueda. It is super dry, or rather, it is as refreshing as water. It went well with the Nanbanzuke.

I had bought it about 7 years ago and I remembered how delicious it was😁. This is the first time I've seen it in a while at Ikebukuro Seibu, so I was nostalgic and bought it. The first day I opened the bottle, I felt some gas. The first day I opened the bottle, I could feel some gas. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but it's a good thing. Hmm, this is my kind of thing 😆😆. The alcohol content is a solid 17 degrees, but you don't feel it at all, it has a smooth mouthfeel😊Lot management is important so you don't suffer the next day.

Japanese>English

4.5 stars Fresh apple flavor with a slight green tinge. The taste is clear and has a beautiful acidity that flows smoothly without any unpleasant sensations. The aroma at the end of drinking is also elegant, and it seems to be an endless type of wine that can be transformed with a sense of wetness. A new discovery!

Rice used is unknown. According to the owner of the sake shop, the sake is aged for three years, but there is no strong sense of aging, and it is a dry junmai-shu with a good acidity. It is a dry junmai-shu with a lot of acidity. The sweetness that spreads fluently and the spicy astringency in the latter half are very unique. After a few days, it becomes more crisp and easy to drink. For my taste, I'd like to have more of a woody or smoky flavor. Either way, it's not a type that will appeal to everyone. The mainstay of this brewery is Yamahai brewing, so it will be interesting to see how peculiar it is.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild and reserved Crisp, pungent and refreshing on the palate.

Japanese>English

The last one is Tafresh, a local sake from Yokote. I've never seen two kanji characters lined up by this person before😅. A spicy to refreshing drink. Might be similar to the 7 spears I had before 🤔. This one was also delicious.
