I was curious why it says sweet on purpose😅. It's not like the popular fluffy fluty It's a solid sweet sake 👘. So, you know... It was great with light red bean paste sweets, cheese, teriyaki, etc 🎵. Recommended to drink at room temperature or lukewarm, but it was also possible to drink it a little chilled 👍✨.

Japanese>English

Rice (domestic), rice malted rice (domestic), 50% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume, 100% rice produced in Kyoto We received it as a souvenir from Kyoto! It was a really delicious sake with the refreshing taste of Junmai Daiginjo, but with enough umami.

Japanese>English

On the Shinkansen on the way back from a business trip to Kyoto. Mild ginjo aroma with a hint of alcohol. The taste is light, slightly aromatic and dry. When drinking it in a can, it is nice that the aroma comes in a flurry when the can is opened. It is also good to drink on the way home from a business trip to feel the end of the business trip.

It was so hot today😅. "It's my first time drinking Kamikame no Nigori Sake! I chilled it and opened the bottle! Turn it a little, push it, and close it right away! Repeat for about 10 minutes! I like that process a lot, it's fun😌. I love the way it mixes together✨. 11 degrees alcohol! Let's take a sip! It's "light" on the palate. It's "light" on the palate, and you can drink a lot of it, very good laugh! In the mouth, there's a slight carbonation, and the flavor spreads! Then it's sharp! No! It's delicious! It was also perfect as a food sake 💁🏼️♂!

Japanese>English

No prior knowledge, small bottle to take home. There was a note on the bottle warning when opening it, but there has never been a case where the bottle has been opened and spilled. Well, this time too, I completely underestimated it because it was a small bottle... When you twist the cork, the bottle rises at once and you have to tighten the cork in a hurry. After repeating this several times, the bottle was finally opened. It has a sweet aroma characteristic of cloudy sake, and a white cloudy sparkling taste, but when you drink it, you will find that the sweetness is very moderate. It has a dry mouthfeel, and I think it is suitable as a food sake. The acidity, which I personally dislike, does not bother me, and it is a refreshing nigori sake.

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.

This Kurashiki sake is made from Omachi, which is grown using the same natural farming methods as the miraculous apple. The aroma is slightly fruity and refreshing. In the mouth, the mild sweetness of rice and the fresh aroma of green apple spread out. It flows smoothly down the throat and has a refreshing aftertaste. ⭐︎:4

Japanese>English

Back home, I had one with a local drink. The alcohol content is a little high. It's a ginjo, but the sweetness is not persistent. Gorgeous aroma in the mouth 💕 Delicious! Delicious! I want to support Kimura style too!

Despite its subtle ginjo aroma, it has a nice sharpness that does not interfere with the meal. It may be a fragrant sake, but it is a perfect food sake, and it is also a perfect match for the local cuisine of Aizu.

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima This is a light flavor. It has a moderate alcohol content, a slight sweetness, and a crisp finish. It was a good food sake that can be drunk without hesitation. ❣️

Japanese>English

This sake is from the same Kobayashi Shuzo Honten as the "Hakata no Mori" that I posted a while ago. Mandai must be more famous locally 🤔. It will be a Risshun morning pressing 🍶. The aroma on the nose is fruity🍍 and sweet. When you take it into your mouth, it has a deep, mild sweetness and umami that is typical for a draft sake, and it finishes with a slight astringent taste. It was delicious 🍶✨.

Japanese>English

I was aware that it was originally intended to be a classic sake, but as I expected from a sake pressed in the morning of Risshun, it was a fresh, elegant, and sweet sake with a great aroma. I was very satisfied with the sake, which tasted even better than I had imagined.

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.

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.

Yamatsuru is the closest sake brewery to my house, but I haven't had much of it lately. The last time I drank it I got the impression that it was peculiar and not really my cup of tea, but not this Junmai Daiginjo! Clear and fruity, good balance of flavors. It's also gorgeous😋. The price is reasonable for a Junmai Daiginjo, but I think it's worth it🧐 I can't underestimate local sake 😚

Japanese>English

Low-polished Junmai-shu from Yamatsuru, a local sake brewery in Ikoma, Nara. The name is Choyao. It was a gift, but it looks like it will cost a fortune💧. I heard it was brewed using a method described in a wooden letter from the Nara period. I wonder if it is true. Anyway, let's try it. Wow! It is indeed as rich and sweet as I had heard! The sake level is a whopping -40❗️ But the aftertaste is refreshing. Surprisingly easy to drink and delicious 😋. It's pretty good 👍I'll have to try this one too 😙. But I wonder if people in the Nara period really enjoyed this kind of sake 🤔.

Get it at "Marugoto Kochi" in Ginza, Tokyo❗️. I had never heard of this brand before, but it was delicious ❣️. The rice used was something from Kochi Prefecture. It has a fresh citrusy taste like a fresh sake, with a rich mouthfeel, but it goes down smoothly. The aftertaste is clean and crisp. If I had to say something, I would say that I would like a little more sweetness, but it is just right for light drinking.

Japanese>English

Second day of Kochi Night. The cab driver told me that Hirome is good, but for bonito, I should go to Matsuri Jaya. He advised me to go to Matsuri Jaya for bonito, as it has a good selection of alcohol. So we went to Matsuri Jaya. At first, we started out with regular sake, just like a normal drinking party in Kochi. The staff at the restaurant recommended various temperatures for drinking. The first sake is Fujimusume, which I have never tried before. Slightly spicy and umami-guchi (flavorful), it was a perfect match for the thickly sliced salt cod roe. The special sake cup is also cute! But from here, I sank into the swamp of Kochi sake.

Houken Junmai Ginjo Kure. Houken, which prefers to use Hachitan-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture, has gone even further in localization and brewed this one with Hachitan-Nishiki produced in Kure. It has a soft, citrus-like aroma on the nose, The elegant acidity is impressive. The sharpness of the aftertaste is a quintessential Houken. A quail egg marinated in miso to complement the sweetness and umami is also a good match. The final dish is an autumn special, soba noodles with croquettes filled with mushrooms!
