The first "Moon after the Rain"...I've wanted to try it for a long time! Phew! The aroma of "Omachi" is alive...the sweet aroma of "Omachi"...the mouthfeel is sweet and delicious...the finish is smooth and clean...Omachi is so good....... I drink too much...I'm having a little bit of it with a side dish of comparing tuna dishes....

Japanese>English

My favorite month after the rain. The bottle is opened and the aroma drifts in. The characteristics of Senbon-Nishiki rice are not recognizable, even after a year, Delicious! Yes, it is! It is a stable and reliable Ame-go-no-tsuki!

Japanese>English

Shirazuru Nishiki, a brother rice to Yamada Nishiki, is At 48% rice polishing ratio. Gorgeous and beautiful sweetness. Light dishes. It goes well with sashimi of white fish.

I'm not feeling well, so I've been trying to cut back on my drinking, but a classmate from junior high school, who I haven't seen in a while, invited me out for a drink and I ended up having one. Oh well. I found a nice bottle of Naotora and had it. It's so good that I remember it tastes good even when I'm drunk. It is a Junmai Daiginjo, but the freshness is dominant and the flavor is good. Isn't the difference between it and the ordinary Naotora too drastic?

Japanese>English

I drink at a restaurant where young people seem to congregate. The owner, who says he is a big fan of Koyama Shoten, introduces us to some Koyama Shoten originals. Next to Tamitsu is Naotora. This is a brand that is not often drunk by individuals. So I can't compare this one with the regular version, but it was delicious. It was a little bit tangy.

Japanese>English

Another bottle opened for Valentine's Day🥂. It's been waiting in the fridge for a while. I'm a little worried... It's sweet and fruity with a strong flavor. But the bitterness afterwards is quite strong. ‼︎ And a little bit of hiney aroma... "The harmony of fresh fermentation gas and flavor is very popular. The harmony of fresh fermentation gas and umami is very popular". I was a bit disappointed in this one 😓.

After returning home, I wondered what to drink and chose "Karahashi" by Homare Shuzo, which I had never had a chance to drink before! It is a junmai ginjo made from Omachi. The first sip gives the impression of sweetness with no sourness. As you continue drinking, the spiciness comes out and the trinity of sweetness, umami, and spiciness comes together, which is just the right balance and delicious. There are other sake rice varieties in the Karahashi series besides Omachi, so you have to try them 😆.

Japanese>English

It is fruity, but you can also feel the taste of rice. The aftertaste is clean and this is drinkable.

Japanese>English

Karahashi label by Homare Sake Brewery. Unfiltered unpasteurized sake made from sake rice Yume no Kou. Fruity ginjo aroma. The aroma of melon and sweetness, followed by a slight sourness and bitterness, finally fading away with a slight spiciness. Although it is unfiltered raw, there is no bitterness or peculiarity, and the impression is of a soft, sweet, umami taste. After a few days of drinking, the balance between sweet and spicy has improved. It is a delicious sake that is so easy to drink that it makes you want to drink more and more. ☺️

At home. I know I'm a little late, but I'd like to wish everyone a happy new year. The first bottle I opened this year was Suzukagawa from the same brewery as Saku, which I got at the end of the year. The aroma, sweetness, acidity, and bitterness in the mouth are very similar. It wasn't as impressive as the Saku, but it was a delicious gem. At the end of the year, I mainly drank the same brands, but now that the year has started, I would like to try more and more new ones that I have never tasted before. This Suzukagawa is the first step, and I hope it will be a good start. I would like to continue my efforts to develop new sake.

Japanese>English

I was going to buy Junmai from Suzukagawa, but they had a new sake, so I decided to buy this one 😊. Aroma with a beautiful atmosphere. It has a calm freshness and a firm sweetness. Saku's new sake is delicious, but Suzukagawa is also good 😋.

Japanese>English

Aru-soke Ginjo class, which is not found in "Saku". Fruity flavor and a light mouthfeel. It goes in smoothly. It is not only light, but also has a well-defined taste. It is excellent as a food wine and goes well with everything. My partner, who loves "Saku", drank it at a high pace.

I asked the lady at the store to recommend a new arrival, and since Hayashi was not yet available, I bought a bottle of Kurobe Pincer from the same brewery 😚. The aroma is not so much but a little peachy 🍑? It is fresh on the palate with a gentle sweetness and rice flavor 🌾😋 It is a delicious sake that finishes with a bit of an alkali aftertaste 😆👍✨.

The taste is less fruity and sweeter and calmer than usual 🤔. Sweet and calm 🤔. Surprisingly, there is no alcohol taste. It is easy to drink and the 270ml is gone in no time. It will be gone soon!

Rabenten is not often seen at liquor stores, but since it was at a department store, I bought it. The Yamadanishiki sake was sold out, so I chose Dewa Sanzan. It is quite gorgeous and fruity. The second half is a little spicy, but it is easy to drink.

Japanese>English

This Sake is fruity, crisp and has a long aftertaste. The flavor is like a young pear with a hint of licorice. The acidity gives this a bright and full mouth feel. I am surprised at how long the finish is for this Sake.

To close out the summer. Looking back on summer. Finding the Bentsen Natsu Ginjo After all, the Bentsen suits me. It is crisp and has an indescribable sweetness. I want to call it "Benten Umami", not "Japan Blue". Yamagata's local sake.

Holly in Aomori, Japan. First of all, ❣️ bottles are cute (((o(♡´▽`♡)o)))) I bought it thinking it would taste gorgeous. I bought it thinking it would taste gorgeous, but it didn't. It's a calm and sweet 😋. I had it with 🥒 and myoga 🎶. I'll use the jar as a single flower vase 🌸

Japanese>English

As the brand name suggests, the acidity of this sake is like a breeze that passes through you comfortably. It is delicious, but it may taste even better on the second day when it has mellowed after being exposed to air.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a liquor store in Hisayama-cho, Kasuya-gun (Just after opening the bottle) Drink cold Clear and colorless Mild aroma Fruity sweetness spreads in the mouth. The taste is sharp but not dry. The aftertaste is clear. It goes well with sakadaki (a dish made from fermented soybeans). When warmed up, it becomes more dry and cloying. (15 days after opening the bottle). Warm to lukewarm The sweet ginjo aroma, similar to that of fruit, becomes stronger. Taste as cold as it is. Very good with cod roe. To be heated Grain aroma similar to corn becomes stronger. Loses its sweetness and richness and becomes very light. Even when heated, it does not return to the same sweetness as cold or lukewarm sake, and has a light flavor.

At home. Cui Yu after a long time. It's more elegant and refined than Hanayup... Hmmm, I have the impression that it has been generalized. The aroma is green apple, the sweetness and sourness are well balanced, and the finish is sharp, so you can't help but drink too much. On the middle day of the week, I drank a good sake to get through the rest of the week, and nourished my wisdom.

Japanese>English

The brewery is famous for its "Hanayuup. Compared to "Hanayuup", the aroma is mild. The aroma is mild. The sweetness is moderate. and the umami is as strong as the Hanamup. and it cuts cleanly. As a food sake, it is more versatile. I think it is more versatile as a food sake.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild. The first sip is sweet, but gradually a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity spreads. The last part has a good spiciness and a nice sharpness. Although it is unfiltered, there is no heaviness, and it is smooth to the palate. After a few days of drinking, the sweetness has gone away and the acidity has risen, but it is also delicious. Hana Yuu is good, but Suiyu is as good as it gets.

Long time no see Kobe 🚃. The hills are amazing😅. I stopped by Sannomiya Hankyu and bought some Nada sake 🍶. The label looked good, so I chose Amber Izumi Jungin. It is a clear, fruity, dry sake. It is mildly sharp. It's a beautiful sake, easy to drink without any peculiarities 😋♪ I'm glad I bought it👍 I'm looking forward to enjoying more of Nada as there are so many unknown sakes 😙.

Is this your first time to try oregano? It is juicy and sweet. I've said it many times, but Izumi Shuzo is the best sake in Nada.
