I saw the stylish design and drank it! Full-bodied and sharp!

Japanese>English

It really tastes like wine! It doesn't have a sake feel to it, but it is delicious.

Japanese>English

Aroma like yogurt. Sweet and sour with little alcohol. It may be tasty if you think of it as something different from sake.

A sake store in Joetsu, Niigata that I have wanted to visit for a long time. Kiraku. First of all, I would like to pay my respects to my hometown, Joetsu. Tsukifumi-no-ike pond is a famous place in Itoigawa, and is said to be located in a dense forest, making it difficult for the moon to be reflected in the pond. Local Takananishiki grown by the brewer. It is said to be full-bodied and sharp, but it is very sharp. This is the mainstream of Niigata-Joetsu sake.

Japanese>English

I bought this sake after my wife recommended it as an easy-to-drink sake at the store where we usually go to buy sake. It is slightly dry and has an aroma that lingers on the nose. The aftertaste is refreshing and delicious. 1,650 yen

Japanese>English

Purchased at Takashimaya event😆👍 Out of the three types, I️ started with the Tsukiyomi no Ike. The aroma is nothing but semedyne smell💦. The taste is like a matured sake, but not fully matured so it's easy to drink for a matured sake😅💦. I just don't like it on the web. I'll try to warm it up next time and enjoy it!

Refreshing, clean, fruity 🌸🍶✨ Sour mouth like Sentori ~⤴️😚 Sweet, sour, delicious 🐴 and oicy ❕. I found it again this year 😆. I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

I always wanted to drink Tanaka Sentori. I was surprised at the quality of Sentori and the quality of and the quality of Tanaka Rokugo. Since then, 12 years have passed. I think about many things when I drink it. I can say this much. It's very tasty. While cheering for the baseball game While thinking about various things I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

Fukuoka! So this is the Kyushu Brewery Shiraito Shuzo. It is different from the Tanaka Rokugo we just drank! Yeast is amazing. My subordinate, who came late, brought in some food. This is a must have for a night out in Fukuoka. Without it, I might not have been able to go home the next day.

(*´ω*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this sake because it is made from Koshihikari 🙋The rice taste is perfect and the aroma is good 😀 It is a more royal strong style sake than nowadays 😀.

Japanese>English

Since it's spring🌸, I think I'll have another bottle of sake with spring in it. I bought a bottle of Shunshin by Nishide Sake Brewery in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. I've been curious about this sake for a while but never got around to it. I will have it with boiled flounder 🙏. I thought it might be a bit strong, but it wasn't. It has a nice richness, sweetness, acidity, and a mellow feeling 😆. It's a bit like a lighter version of Tamagawa. As the label says, I preferred it at room temperature rather than chilled 👍

Japanese>English

I saw it for the first time at a department store tasting sale, so I bought it. It's not listed on the label, but according to the brewer's description, it's unfiltered undiluted sake. It says "light nigori" but it's not cloudy at all (laughs). It's refreshing and easy to drink. The acidity in the second half is impressive.

I bought this at Mori Sake Brewery on my last trip to Hirado! The president of the company was in charge of the cash register that day😆. He politely introduced us and told us that it tastes best chilled in a wine glass! Sweet and sour from the aroma Tastes like plum wine Slightly sticky texture A little sweet but not too sweet Slightly rice bran-like, but you can sense the grains and nuts that only low-polished rice can provide But still sweet 😃. Sweet and delicious as a dessert wine I had it with Nagasaki Fukusado sponge cake a few days ago Champagne split today 🤣. Half and half Pour in a 1:1 ratio Marriage of Philando and Champagne 😉. Makes it less sweet. Maybe just the right amount of sweet 🤔.

Japanese>English

Second bottle. First time for me to drink Philando. It was a little cloudy when poured into a glass, and both sweet and sour tastes were strong and delicious. I would like to try a regular one next time.

Ying Ying Doburoku Pink is more of an "adult sweet sake" than a "sake" 🍓. The smooth texture is thick and the sweet and sour taste is reminiscent of strawberry yogurt. The alcohol content is 9%, but if you are not careful, it will catch you off guard. If you try to pair it with a meal, doburoku-sama will try to steal the main role, so be careful. This is a dessert sake to be enjoyed by itself. It is a dessert sake to be enjoyed on its own. It is a heresy that doesn't fit into the sake category, but I don't hate it 🌸.

Japanese>English

Evaluation: ★★★★★ It's been a while since I've bought and drank sludge. It's delicious! Sweet and sour and sludgy, I love it. Nice aftertaste. The pink color was also nice.

Japanese>English

Doburoku is the best! Personal preference: ★★★★★

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`) The effect of oak barrels, or something quite close to whiskey, but the mellowness and acidity of sake is also alive! I know it's just my imagination, but I feel it's similar to the whiskey akashi. Of course, if I didn't know any better, I wouldn't have thought so. I also had a bottle of Junmai Namae in the heated sake corner, but my memory is a little fuzzy on whether or not my brain was getting the alcohol when I got here! I do remember that it was meant to be heated, but that's about it.

Japanese>English

A single-stage brewing process produces a cup with an astonishing sake content of over -50. The thickening and sweetness of the first sip includes the flavor of rice, making it an excellent match with Japanese sweets. Personally, I feel it also goes well with cream cheese.

Suehiro Shuzo's Genzai. They also won a gold medal at the New Sake Competition for their Genzai daiginjo, but this is not that award-winning sake, but an affordable special junmai. It starts off with a piquant and refreshing sweet and sour taste! The taste is powerful with a strong sense of presence, but the alcohol content of 15 degrees makes it easy to drink and enjoy 👌. We are looking forward to adding this sake to our lineup next year and beyond 😊.

Japanese>English

Sake brewed at Suehiro Shuzo's Kaei warehouse. When I hear the name "Genzai," I think of the daiginjo that was entered in the sake competition. I hesitate to buy it because it is a bit expensive, but this special junmai sake (nama-shu, hi-iru) is reasonably priced and easy to pick up. I am looking forward to the next year, when there will be more varieties of sake. As for the sake, the aroma is like apples. When I drank it, I smelled cemedine😅. The sake is fresh and has a tangy, gaseous taste. The sweetness is moderate and the acidity is strong. I thought maybe I don't like cemedine, but I drank more than half of it in no time and regretted it. It is easy to drink. The second day, the cemedine is also good. If this is the case, it's a special pure Cemedine.

Japanese>English

Another brand name of Suehiro, which is read as "Gensai". The aroma is richly fragrant. It has a thick sweetness, rich acidity, and robust flavor. The overall flavor is stronger than Suehiro's. This is my favorite type. This is my favorite type.

I was curious about Kanagawa sake 🍶 purchased at the brewery. Is it for export? Stylish bottle. It has a 90% Omachi rice polishing ratio and 40% koji ratio from Okayama Prefecture. Aroma: Mellow Omachi sweet aroma...sweet mouthfeel! It's not so much a food sake as a wine, but rather a wine that can be drunk in small sips. It's like a dolce in wine. Recommended for first time sake drinkers! I can't wait for this encounter with this delicious sake!

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Origuchi Sake Shop when I went to make a reservation for the Risshun morning pressing. Dark sweetness and strong acidity. The acidity is apple-like. It has a strong sweetness and acidity, but it is light and refreshing and easy to drink. It is a little dry and has a cider-like atmosphere with no gasiness.
