At home. I was drawn to the bright red color. The aroma is gorgeous, the mouthfeel is tingly, sweet, a little sour, and finishes with a bitter taste. It is a gem that has no peculiarities and is very easy to drink.

Saga Prefecture is the sake kingdom of Kyushu, but this is my first time to try this sake. I was looking forward to it, seeing that it had already been posted on several sites, but it didn't disappoint! I'll be drinking it carefully so I don't empty it right away.

I'm eating meat. I got the recommended liquor. It's a cooking liquor, right? It was a nostalgic taste that reminded me of my school days Let me also tell you that we have a lot of delicious sake because we purchase it from Oyama.

This is from the father of my oldest son's wife💕Thank you💕 I received this 📌720ml ¥ 🍶. Here's the rice 🍶. Not much aroma. The color is a pale gold. The taste is refreshing 💕 A little sweetness from the rice 💕 A little bit of sweetness from the rice💕 A little bit of spiciness comes a little later 💕I don't dislike it 👍It's very stable 😁It's like an all rounder 👍 I didn't get the same impression as the label on the back 😅

Japanese>English

It's Tori Aristocrat, so this is the only sake I have.... It was cold in the restaurant, so I made it hot. It smells like alcohol.... It's hard to drink. When the temperature dropped to room temperature, it became easier to drink. I've had it cold before, but it's the type of sake I'd expect to be warmed, but it doesn't go well with warmed sake...

☆☆☆☆☆ Last week (or was it?) It's a banana today after the apple last week. It smells very sour and not banana-like, but when you drink it, it's sweet. It's like a fruit sweetness, but if you ask me if it's a banana sweetness, I think it's a little different.

Japanese>English

A touch of spiciness. The spiciness starts to wrap around the sweetness in the mid-palate. The mildness of the umami taste.

Japanese>English

Sake purchased at Shimizuya in Saku, Nagano 🍶. A rare sake brewery whose signature is sake brewed with various "flower yeasts" such as apple and sunflower 🌼🌻. They are aiming for an era where people choose sake by its yeast. This time it was a saké made with cherry blossom yeast🌸. Gorgeous and fruity as expected! The stable Yamae-Nishiki is delicious!

Today is my first Hokkaido sake ️. Sanzen Sakura Sake Brewery🌸 The aroma is a little muscat? I'm not sure. It's also very tasty. There is also a sour bitterness that comes through in the nose 😋. I had it with octopus wasame kabu and it goes well with it. The sweetness increases👍.

After the brewery's relocation to Hokkaido This is the first time to drink it. The label by a designer from Asahikawa The label by a designer from Asahikawa creates a pleasant atmosphere. It has a gorgeous aroma and a slightly sweet taste. It goes well with light-flavored Japanese food.

While purchasing a limited edition sake in return, we also tasted and bought a summer nigori (nigori is a type of sake that is sold in summer). The Yui Yui, which is made by Michiko Urasato at this brewery, is not sold at the brewery due to various reasons.

Sekizen ‼️, a brand I've been wanting to try. I was curious about the standard label, but The unusual lager shirt label 🏉. The aroma is banana🍌-like for this sake too ❗️ I like the aroma 😊 It's sweet, but a little stronger on the alcohol side. I think it tastes crisp 🤔. It's good as a food sake👍 I'd like to try other Sekizen as well 👍‼️

At home. Although it is called Hokkaido series, I compared the taste with Wakakoma for the first time. The mouthfeel is smooth, but the aroma and the feeling in the mouth is something I've never had before. It has a unique taste with a little bit of brown sugar in the mouth. I think it stands out more when compared to the Kokushi Muso. I'm sure it will change after a while, but it was the first time for me to feel the depth of sake.

Japanese>English

Commonly known as "Charakoma". The alcohol content is low at 14 degrees. It is low in alcohol content, and has a strong flavor, but also has a good amount of "goodness". It has a freshness and sharpness typical of summer sake.

Japanese>English

It has a rich sweetness and juicy richness reminiscent of ripe fruit, and I really like its dark flavor. It has been a long time since I have had Wakakoma, but it is still delicious.

This sake is supposed to have combined rice with different rice polishing ratios. The smell is slightly nutty. This sake is dry and also manages to seem both light and rich at the same time. The flavor is mellow and somewhat subdued with hints of melon and cashew. The bottle isn’t very traditional but is nicely designed. Rice Polishing Ratio: 50-70% Sake Meter Value: 2 Acidity: 1.7

Local sake for dinner. You can buy it in supermarkets in Tokyo 🍶.

Japanese>English

Gorgeous aroma. Banana-like. Strong smell of alcohol. The palate is mellow, with moderate sweetness and acidity. There is a bitter taste, but it does not linger and is pleasantly sharp.
