The third brewery on the Takayama Sake Brewery Tour. Harada Sake Brewery. After tasting two kinds of sake, we found the jar in the photo. It is a sake that is completely limited to the brewery? I knew I had to try it, so I ordered a glass. I could certainly smell the aroma. It was my favorite sake out of all the ones we drank during our sake brewery tour. My partner ordered a Daiginjo soft ice cream, but it didn't seem to have much sake flavor.

. Sake rice: Hidahomare, Akitakomachi The name of the float is not "Dashi" but It seems to be read as "sansha". It was a dry sake with a good acidity and a good taste of rice. It was a dry sake! It's a sake with a strong umami flavor! ✩3.5

☆☆☆☆☆ 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.

Returned last year at Crafwam! Thick and smooth taste The sour taste is addictive! It's a good sake! It's 17 degrees, so if you drink too much 🤪 lol The neighbor's wife... What's next? I'm curious.

Japanese>English

We will have it at the Hyogo guess. Sake just like the image of Hyogo in my mind! Dry and refreshing. But it had a Sake meter of +1.

Japanese>English

A crowdfunded return gift! It's Junmai Genshu 17%, once-hi-ire. We had it chilled! It has a thick and sweet taste of Junmai Genshu. I don't feel much acidity, but It's a sake you can drink easily. The wife next to me said it was delicious with a big smile on her face😁.

8 points (wife: 7 points) Alcohol content: 14 degrees Celsius Sake meter: +2 Acidity: 1.2 Sake rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio : 60 Yeast : Nadeshiko flower yeast Where to buy : Japanese Restaurant Kusabanaraku (Nagasaki City) Slightly floral melon-like top The same fruity aroma as the first sip, a moderate sweetness, and the umami of rice spread with a soft acidity and are quickly quenched by a slight bitterness and the dryness of the alcohol. The dryness of the alcohol gives this sake a good sharpness in spite of its aroma, giving it a classical impression in the latter half of the bottle. It is more suitable as a mid-meal drink than as a stand-alone sake. It went well with grilled sea bream, various sashimi, simmered pork, simmered sea bream, fried fish, and other dishes made by my wife's brother.

Japanese>English

This is the first time I drink this brand. It's clean with little miscellaneous flavors, and there's something about it that makes me want to try other kinds.

Japanese>English

The second bottle was a Minamishimabara sake given to me by an acquaintance. This may be my first time to have a sake pressed by Hanegi 🤔. It was a classic type of sake with a yellowish tinge, with a strong rice flavor, yet mellow and delicious 🍶.

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 👍‼️

Japanese>English

Sake bought at a liquor store in Ueda. I had never seen the label before, so I bought it. It had no aroma, but when I sipped it, I first felt a light gassy sensation, then a sweetness, then a full-bodied umami, and finally a light bitterness. It seems to be the only brewery in Nagano Prefecture that uses flower yeast. I didn't know there was such a thing as flower yeast made from flowers. Sake is fun.

Aroma: Slight aroma of rice... Mouth: mild sweetness and bitterness! The sharpness of the aftertaste! The lingering good bitterness is good...good♪Enjoy the Yamanashi marriage with late autumn edamame "Akebono soybeans" and Yamanashi's local snack, "Chicken with chicken meat"...I buy these edamame locally every year...they are delicious 😋...they are like "chestnuts".... I'm not a fan of hiyaoroshi, but it's delicious as a food sake 🍶😋 and I'm enjoying the late autumn....

I was so impressed with the obvious taste of STAR GAIZER last year that I got carried away and bought two bottles this year! The clarity is amazing! So clear that you can feel the stars and the starry void in the night sky. There is a unique richness from it and the first day it was ...... honestly not very tasty! LOL! But from the second day, STAR GAIZER is in its element and very tasty! The sweetness is moderate, but there is a sourness and a delicious flavor, and it is delicious without any cloying taste! I remember that it was very tasty on its own last year, but this time it is also good on its own! But I thought it was clearly better with a meal! Maybe it's because this year's sake is stronger than last year's. If you ask me what it goes well with, I can't think of anything, but I think it would go well with Western food, light Italian food, and snacks that don't contain much oil. If it is Japanese, it went well with nabe (hot pot)!

Purchased with Ayagiku at Okura Sake Shop. It has a gentle sweetness and is refreshing. The acidity gives the impression of a tightening effect. I heard that they also have a draft sake, so I would like to try it. I wonder if I can buy all the sake introduced in dancyu.

Hana-Shume," a sake from a revived brewery in Saiki City, Oita Prefecture, which was featured on Tokoro-san's "Laughing at You" last fall. We were lucky enough to get an assortment set (❓trial set) of 3 sake for souvenirs, so we compared them! Here is the next one! Hanashoumi Special Junmai (orange label) The aroma is also slightly citrus 🍊. On the palate, the four tastes of sweetness, umami, bitterness and acidity are beautifully balanced. This can be served as a food sake 👍.

Japanese>English

First brand I've ever had! Lovely name🌸. Aroma is clean, yet gorgeous! Good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity... firm but with a clean aftertaste! Another great sake I've found😊.

This is the Aino-sato Junmai-shu from Nanyo Jozo, which is famous for Hanayo-yoku. It's a delicious sake with a good balance of umami and sourness, like a fresh apple. It's delicious 😋 and the price is good too. The price is 1320 yen for a four-pack.

Japanese>English

It has an alu feel to it, but it's delicious with a nice pleasant tartness. I enjoyed it warm last year and will enjoy it slowly again this year.

Japanese>English

Is this a local brand of the same brewery as Hanayo-yoku? The rice is said to be Gohyakumangoku. It's a completely different brew, but it's refreshing and has a gorgeous taste. I had an image of it being classical and hard to drink, but it's a modern sake with impressive acidity. The one I drank recently that is similar is GOGO Gohashi. Gohashi has a muscat-like atmosphere, and this one has a green apple-like atmosphere.
