Sake received at the Sake World Summit. This sake is brewed with Ginbukiyo sake produced in Shiga Prefecture. The acidity and umami of the sake are well intertwined with each other. It was a delicious sake. It is perfect as an in-between-dinner drink. My wine-loving friend who accompanied me also accepted the taste of this sake made from the sake's "nama-hashiroshi" (sake brewed from the same yeast as the original yeast).

Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix㉔ Ichihoro is the first sake I've had in three years. I have a strong impression of light nigori raw sake. I drank Junmai light nigori nama-zake (raw sake) Impressive acidity and drinkability typical of sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast 🤔. Junmai light nigori nama sake I've had it in the past and it's still as good as ever. I think the balance is really good. Versatile enough to drink by itself or with food.

Purchased 👀 at Sazanami Sake Shop in front of the station during a day trip to Hikone. Beautiful, corner space and friendly staff. It was a nice store 😙. Since I was there, I chose Kazuhiro, a sake I had never had before from Shiga. It was full, slightly sweet, had a delicious rice flavor, and was very drinkable 😋. Paired with sweet ayu fish from Lake Biwa, it was delicious. ❤️ It is indeed a sake from Shiga, a rice-producing region 😇

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka Ibaraki Prefecture Booth ③. Based on the philosophy of brewing sake that is loved by the local community in Hitachi City, the sake is consumed mainly in the local area of Hitachi City and the northern part of Ibaraki Prefecture. Ultra-soft water from the premises is the brewing water. ◉Fukushin Jun The sake is rich and has a strong sweetness. It has a strong sweetness and a slightly sticky sweetness. It has a unique and slightly peculiar taste. Slightly rustic. I forgot to take a picture, so I borrowed it from bouken.

National Sake Fair 202511 Ibaraki Prefecture ② Fukushin Jun Junmai Sake Shiina Sake Brewery in Hitachi City I've heard of this sake but never seen it in Kansai. I'm not mistaking it for something like FUKUNISHIKI or FUKUMUSUMO. According to their official website, they have a distributor in Tokyo, and it seems that they also have a wholesaler distributing their sake. Domestic rice, 65% polished rice ratio 15.3 degrees Sake degree +4 Acidity 1.6 Amino Acidity 1.6, Amino Acidity 1.3, No. 9 & No. 10 yeast used It had a complex and unique flavor 😋. The president of Kondo Sake Brewery, which brews Ehime's Hana Hime Sakura and Mikan de Sake, came to the Ibaraki booth and drank Urasato, saying he came because he heard it was delicious 😁. I got the impression from the venue that it was also a meet and greet between sake breweries from different regions. At other events, the general public and related parties are separated, but this time there were a lot of people from restaurants and liquor stores because it was a combined event.

One of the sake I wanted to try because of the stylish label❗️ A hint of pear? White peach? It smells like pear or white peach 😅 Elegant sweetness and almost no sourness ❗️ No bitterness or habits, and the aftertaste seems to disappear easily 😄. Overall, it's a gentle sake that goes well with meals. It's a delicious sake that can be drunk easily on its own 👍 Even sake beginners can enjoy it 😄.

Newly registered brand. Since the sake brewer could not be registered, the new brand is "Aizu Otokoyama" from Otokoyama Shuzo Brewery in Aizu Misato Town, Fukushima Prefecture. Its new brand name is "Wa". It has a mild aroma. It has a melon aroma and a hint of sweetness like caramel. The sweetness that is not too strong is impressive. There is some acidity. The aftertaste is strong alcohol. A strong bitterness also lingers. I have a feeling that it will be excellent with Japanese food.

Japanese>English

I was curious about this sake because Mr. Manachie was drinking it. Purchased at an antenna store in Fukushima Prefecture. I really wanted the same specs, but they only had this one and an expensive one, so I had no choice but to choose this one. The brewery has reopened after 20 years. It has a mild and gentle honey-like sweetness. The aftertaste is refreshing. I would prefer a little more sweetness, but it seems to go well with a meal.

three cups of Tsunite (three cups of sake) Rice used is Hachitan Nishiki Sanshiki has a punch, doesn't it? It has a good sense of maturity and a pungent spiciness. It also has a nice sharp aftertaste. ❗️ It's great to have this kind of sake in the lineup! It was delicious. ❣️

We have changed our nickname "Kikushika of Wind Island" to "Evening Drinks Conservation Committee". Thank you for your continued support. This sake, in a plastic bottle with no label, is 10 years old. It is no longer sold, but it was my favorite sake. As expected, it has a lot of old sake flavor and is too strong on its own. When mixed with carbonated soda, it is like a lemon soda with honey added to the tannin, a world I have never tasted before. I crossed the pedestrian bridge, which has been there for a long time, for the first time. It is a town I know, but I saw a view I have never seen before. It's probably the last five minutes of my life.

Tonight, our first series, Kikuyu by Yoshikawa Brewery from Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It is 100% Dewa Sanzu, Junmai Nama-no-Hajime made with Kyoukai No. 6 yeast. It has a ginjo aroma between cucumber and pear, and the first sip is clear with a full sweetness, but later on, a strong bitterness and alcohol taste follows, making it dry and smooth.

Tonight, we decided to open a new sake once in a while, so we had this one from the Yoshikawa Sake Brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture. Junmai Nigori Sake - Luxurious Aragoshi ✨✨✨✨. The sake seems to have been bottled after the new sake unrefined sake has been roughly fermented 😄. The aroma has a hint of pear and apple. When you take a sip, you can feel the gasiness and acidity, but it is juicy and delicious 😋😋😋😋 When you mix the lees, you can feel the sweetness of the rice and the creaminess increases, which is also delicious 😋😋. This was definitely one to repeat 🤗

A bottle I bought on my first visit at the beginning of the year. It has been a long time since I have had a bottle with a dry, Han-like taste. It has a strong alcohol taste. If you warm it too much, the strength will increase, It is best to warm it up to lukewarm to get the right roundness. It was cold, so we had it with oden.

I bought it at Kyorindo 📌300ml ¥574 I started work today. My family had sushi for lunch. They bought sashimi for me💕I have to drink this😋. I'm so glad I did! The aroma is more subdued than I expected. The color is beautiful and the mouthfeel is smooth, but the throat feeling is medium spicy😋. This is a very good product from an excellent company. I'd like to thank my wife for her help with the tuna and yellowtail sashimi. I'm so happy to be back!

2020/08/09 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Open it a little → bubbles are coming out, then close it immediately. We repeated this for about 10 minutes and finally opened the bottle. It is soft and crispy, with lactic acid bacteria sweet and sour taste. This is "Calpis for adults". It has a faint bitter taste at the end. It was a refreshing drink without a sticky aftertaste.

This Sake has a full mouth feel and a rich flavor. It has the flavor of sweet melon. There is also a bit of acid at the finish to give this a clean aftertaste. Very nice!
