They use a yeast called "Kyo no Koto" which was jointly developed by Sasaki Shuzo and the Kyoto City Institute of Industrial Technology. If that's the case, why don't they write it on the label? It's quite floral, but banana-like. At the end, the sourness kills it. So far, I don't think I've had a bad bottle of Fuoh.

Japanese>English

I bought it at ●Maya because I thought it was rare to find Tomiou's Yamahai. It was sweet with lactic acidity. Then there is a bitterness with a graininess. A little peculiar? A little nutty. It has a complex taste with caramel and creaminess. After a few days, it tastes like yogurt or calpis. After a few more days, it's hard to describe, but it has a type of habit I don't like...

Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (¡Ω) Very yellow. Delicious and mellow as expected! Although from the Fushimi brewery, this sake would definitely be better suited to those who prefer San-in sake! I've been afraid to go to Kyoto since the new cologne, but this makes me want to go to Fushimi to buy some! But I still don't have the guts to take the train only in the direction of Kyoto where there are many tourists! Still, this sake has enough charm to make me brave enough to make the decision to go to Fushimi, even if I am trembling!

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

YOMOYAMA NAGANO in Osaka ⑱. The Mushinzo and Kikuhide booths. At the Tachibanakura Shuzo booth, there was a brewer I spoke with at the Hankyu event, so I spoke to him. He recognized me and remembered me. The brewery's amazake Premium. It has a refreshing taste with a hint of sourness and sweetness. The cup still had some bumps, which I thought was a waste. I introduced myself as the brewer who is in charge of the production of amazake and said hello.

interpoint (interword separation) Chose Inamuraya, which I haven't had yet 😚. Delicious ❗️ But... I compared it to another Inamuraya💦. Sourness? Maybe it had a spikiness to it😅.

Japanese>English

Aomori Sake Inamuraya I used to drink outside. Special Junmai was done. There are not many check-ins for this sake. It's a sake from Aomori, so... This time, we've been taking our time with the fruity sakes we've been enjoying lately, and this one is freshly brewed and dry. It's a bit of a quirk, but it's very crisp and clean. I don't heat sake. I don't warm sake, but I thought it was good. I thought it was good. It's also good when it's settled down. It's also good when it's settled down.

We will help with the harvest at an acquaintance's mandarin 🍊 field in the afternoon. Then we have a barbecue in the garage for dinner. We buy a bottle of Domuroku at Tsuruya, which we have been wanting to drink for a long time. It's a little bit sweet and smooth. It's delicious. It was gone in no time 😆.

I drank it after Senzuke, so I got the order wrong. I think it is a good sake 🍶.

Japanese>English

I bought this cup of sake when I bought Shinshu the other day. The concept seems to be to serve it with ramen, but I bought some fried chicken because Daiichi Shuzo told me that it also goes well with oily food like Machichuuka. I heard it has acidity, and it certainly does, but it's spicy. The spicier the better. But it is delicious! The fat from the fried food flows off nicely. This is good, I'll buy it again.

"Sanomaru Cup" Thin and clean texture. Flavor is forward and crisp, with notes of raspberry, cucumber, bubblegum, and almond paste. Finish is fast and clean.

Firm schwa, pizzazz. Like a sparkling wine. Soft on the palate. Fresh acidity. The alcohol content is low at 13 degrees. In a four-pack bottle, it's already a full bottle.

Japanese>English

I enjoyed the innocent classic so I bought it with the intention of repeating it. Smells like lactic acid, baby formula, and uncut melon. The melon is well felt through the uninspired mouthfeel, then the shriveled, cold sweet and sour fruitiness, all gone by the time you swallow and a little astringent. Overall, refreshing. Delicious. Sweeter than Haribo. Day 3. Smells like cider. Rich fruitiness in the mouth, thin melon, pineapple? Banana? Apricot? Fruity-sourness swells, then squeezes and hydrates.

Japanese>English

Delicious and a repeat purchase! Lactic acidity, alcohol, slight grape smell. The taste is melting. Syrupy, juice-like sweet and sour, woody flavors all seem to disappear without being too sharp, leaving a lingering aftertaste after licking the candy. A little bitterness at different times. When the temperature rises, it is quite sweet. It is easy to drink at lower temperatures with a beautiful feeling. It's good. After 4 days. Amazing nectariness. Dense fruit syrup. I think I was surprised how good it tasted after some time before.

The sake rice is rice rice Sasanishiki. It was recommended to me by the owner of the sake shop I usually go to. It is tangy and spicy at first, and then a mildly sweet taste spreads in the mouth. It was delicious. 1,650 yen.

Friday Single Cup. Shiraki Kugin Sushi Rice, lychee start with banana liqueur sweetness, fine carbonated bubbles, smooth acidity in the mouth first, rice flavor sweetness to support the middle, apple core sweet and bitter clean finish.

Since I was also visiting Kyoto, I had a second glass of "Ginshari", a Kyoto sake. The aroma is faintly muscat-like. The mouthfeel is refreshing...but then the mellow sweet, sour, and astringent taste like grapes spread out in a sizzle. The difference between the naming and the taste was a betrayal in a good sense! The slight chilliness of the gas also gives the wine a freshness👍.

At home. This is my favorite Sei Masamune. There is no particular aroma, and it has a smooth mouthfeel with a fruity and sweet taste in the nose, followed by a little sourness, and finally a bitter taste that finishes it off nicely. Compared to the previous Seimasamune, the sweetness is more moderate.

Japanese>English

At home. Purchased at the usual liquor store. I want to drink it regularly. The owner said, "It tastes good both chilled and heated. I was looking forward to drinking it. First, we had it chilled. The aroma is gorgeous with a hint of alcohol. It has the characteristic sweetness and umami of Seimasa's sake. Oh, it's so good! Now that the heat is better, I would like to try heating it up next.

Japanese>English

At home. I drank Hanamasa and Seimasamune. However, I was already very drunk by the time I had the Seishomune. Both are gorgeous and delicious sake, and they gave me a happy time.
