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.

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👍.

Acidity Fizzy Sweetness Champagne Fruity Sweet and Sour Wine Citrusy

The color is a yellowish gold, reminiscent of champagne. When shaken, it smells citrusy, sweet and clear, and the expectations are high. Carbonation, apricot, citrus, sourness from the clean drinking experience, taste is not thin and has moments of woodiness and is very tasty. It has a slightly heavy sourness, richness, and astringency reminiscent of low-polished rice, but it is not dull or difficult to drink, and it has a slight heaviness that makes it enjoyable. If you want to try the powerfulness of low-polished rice but also want to drink a beautiful sake, this sake will satisfy both of your needs.

Japanese>English

The slightly sour smell has a fresh soda-like aroma. The slight sourness of cherries from the slight fizz, the woody aroma, and the delicious taste of rice as it fades away. It's delicious. No bitterness. The description says plum, jasmine and honey. The smell is of Japanese cypress. I think it gets drunk faster than other sakes.

Japanese>English

At home. Shinsei has come to our house too❗️. The aroma is not that great, the taste starts with a tingling sensation on the tip of the tongue, and when you put it in your mouth, it has a strong sourness with a hint of sweetness. It was very light and easy to drink. It's a gem that you can drink forever and it's hard to judge when it's over.

Smell reminiscent of lactic acid, bananas, wind forest. Light golden color, sticky liquid, sour and sugary sweet, hard water, a bit banana-y, pungent. The aftertaste is sweet and tingly, reminiscent of canned fruit syrup. As you get used to drinking it, you can taste the bitterness. Outweighs the sweetness of the roll cake. After eating the roll cake, you feel the sourness and this is delicious. I want to drink it thick and sweet and sip it little by little. If you add ice, you get sourness and bitterness. When it is warmed up, the strong sweetness is drawn out and changes to a gentle taste, and after the slight sweetness and sourness, it seems to seep in. It is delicious. I couldn't finish my drink.

Japanese>English

Mellow, refreshing, delicious 🍶. Super oicy ❕. I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

The first challenge for the first Bodai yeast sake is the sake from Nara, the birthplace of Bodai yeast 🕺🏻. Takacho 🦅❗️ from Aburicho Sake Brewery, well known for Kaze no Mori 🕺🏻. I got this one because it's only available in April! The label is so cool 👍! I thought it might be a bit peculiar since it's made from the Muromachi period, but it's not as sour as I thought it would be, and it's full-bodied and tasty while also giving off a unique flavor😳. I was expecting it to be a bit peculiar, but it was not as acidic as I thought it would be, and it was delicious with a unique flavor and richness 😳. It is rated -34 on the sake scale, but it is not too sweet and can be drunk easily 😋. Different from Kaze no Mori, this one was delicious too! I think I'll try another Bodai Hashimoto Sake 😋!

It seems like there's almost no aroma 🤔In the mouth it's slightly effervescent with a gentle sweetness and a beautiful acidity 😊Then a mild umami and bitterness that seems to disappear forever 😚This is a delicious spring-like sake 🥳.

The fourth cup was "Asakayousei"! I was curious about this one, as I have only seen Shiga sake such as "Shichibonjari" and "Shoki Shoki". The aroma is apple-like. The mouthfeel is fresh, with a gaseous and hinted aroma that reminds me of a tank! The sweet and sour taste of green apple and the overflowing flavor is addictive ✨.

Japanese>English

Vigorous raw sake, strong and beautiful!

Japanese>English

Aromatic and slightly dry. It is not spectacular, but you can taste the umami of the rice. It is best paired with dishes with strong flavors, such as yakitori, teriyaki, and chicken nanban, rather than light dishes.

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.

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 😆.
