A limited edition sake brand from a nearby shop. Hiya. Mild umami from the head to the aftertaste.

Japanese>English

This is also a dry sake with a nice sharp taste. In a good sense, it is a sake for everyday drinking without being special.

A crisp, dry sake. Lush and fresh.

I drank it cold. It was sharp and slightly dry. It was delicious.

Japanese>English

It is dark and shows a strong presence. It is a delicious sake. I hope the whole country will know about it.

Japanese>English

Sake from Aichi Prefecture, which was procured at a sake festival. We had it warmed up. It is a robust, mature sake with a strong acidity. It has a strong acidity, and even when it is heated up, it still retains its tanginess. I paired it with a pork and Chinese cabbage hot pot, but it won out. ★★★★

It is a light amber Junmai-shu brewed with the fantastic sake rice "Kinmon Nishiki". The aroma is cemedine...sweet and bitter with a hint of bitterness! It's dry, so it goes well with thickly seasoned food. For beginners, it is not recommended...? I've been drinking it with bonito sashimi with silver skin...

Japanese>English

This is my first brand. I didn't expect much, but it was delicious and a pleasant miscalculation. The acidity is delicious. It is easy to drink. It is like a summer sake. It has a long aftertaste. It was a hit.

Japanese>English

Kiwamono in the Zankuro series with outstanding sharpness 61% Yamae-Nishiki polished rice, 1101 yeast, 19% al. Hot, dark, dry and spicy The herbaceous flavor is best when watered and heated. It is also good to drink it with lemon soda like a Ramune. But I like to drink it as it is.

(*´ч ` *)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I just came back from a trip today and had a glass of Yumezou, a local sake 😀. It's full of flavor and a little dry 😊It has a nice crisp aftertaste and a nice sharp taste 😚. It's also good to drink the sake you bought on your trip while thinking about which one to drink first 🚗🥳.

˙˚ 𓆩 (*´▽`*) ✿𓆪 ˚˙ 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we got a cup of Miyamoto Sake Brewery's Yume Sake 😀. It's my first time to try Miyamoto Sake Brewery's sake ✨. It's a strong style sake with lots of flavor 😚 It was a delicious cup 🥳.

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown Pale gold color, but without much sense of maturity. Slightly light, with strong acidity. It is rather sweet. It has a sharp, clean aftertaste, so you won't get tired of drinking it. The umami flavor also comes through with a zing, making it a deeply flavored sake. The 87th cup of sake

Purchased at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival. Mellow rice flavor. Slightly dry but not too dry. It is delicious with some acidity. Mellow umami? Mellow and dry? A kind of type. It has a classical atmosphere, but I think it is more sweet than spicy.

Japanese>English

It's like water, clear and dry. No sweetness at all. No mercy!

Naritaya is a local izakaya chain in Okayama ✨. Among them, Sakae-machi branch is a super sake mania ^ ^. The snacks are delicious and cheap 😋.

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.

On Sunday, I visited the Taste of Morita Co. This is the family brewery of Akio Morita, the founder of Sony. I was attracted by the Aji no Yakata limited edition and bought a bottle. It tasted a little sweeter than I expected and was easier to drink than I expected. 1,650 yen

Japanese>English

(I was tired from eating too much rich food, so I decided to balance it out with some light sake, so I bought a bottle of Nenohi from Yamaya. Nenohi is thin, as was the case with the cup sake. The light flavor is clear but still has the presence of light flavor to make the most of it! Today, I overcame my fear of the new koro and went to a hot spring! The treasure of Amagasaki, Tsukiji Ebisu Spa is still wonderful! I got the locker number 17 and the BIGBOSS number 1! Then I went to Ohmononokunushi Shrine and wished to become a big shot! Then we went to the recently excavated Nozato no Yu! It was a light spring! After that, we went to Hashigawa Shrine along the Yodogawa River, which was also nice!

Gorgeous ginjo aroma. A mild taste. Serve with bonito sashimi, with slices of bonito.

There is clearly more lees than the previous Yamadanishiki. When you take the supernatant first, the taste opens up from the beginning, with a thick umami and sweetness spreading. The Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo reached this state at room temperature, but this one's flavor comes through even at low temperatures. When the lees are stirred, a crisp acidity is added and the aftertaste becomes clear. The full-bodied aroma comes out of the nose, and the taste becomes highly complete at once. This one is also insanely delicious! I've been drinking a lot of Omachi sake lately, and I wonder if this complex and thick sweet flavor is a characteristic of Omachi.

Japanese>English

Yamadanishiki ver. Compared to Omachi's lees sake, it is slightly more lees and has a 1% lower alcohol content (17%). The bottle size is also changed from 500ml for Omachi to No. 4. The aroma is like rice itself and rice malt. The pure sweetness that is typical of Yamadanishiki passes through the nostrils with a slightly thick texture, and there is a slight bitterness that seeps into the tongue. A slight bitterness seeps into the tongue and a tangy sourness on the tip of the tongue. The taste that spreads in multiple directions in the mouth is like a rocket firework. As the day goes by, the acidity will become more rounded and a sense of unity will emerge.

UZUME 3

I bought it at a sake shop in Kintetsu Department Store. I can't read "mother-of-pearl" 🤣I heard it is read as "Uzume", but if you type "den" for mother-of-pearl in your phone, it will come up 😁. If I lived a normal life, I would never use this kanji 😅. I got the impression it's a pineapple with a bit of bitterness 🍍. It was sweeter when I tasted it, so maybe it's sweeter after some time, but it's 500ml and I can't wait that long 🤣. Maybe the aroma is a bit peculiar.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store's Sake Tour. The label is a sheep kept at the brewery. It has a slight sweetness, and is full, rich, and powerful. It has a strong richness. It might be good if it is laid down. There are graininess and nutty nuances. I guess it's normal for a good price. I didn't buy Yamahai because I didn't want the similar taste to continue, but Yamahai might have been better... It's the third day, but I think it's getting sweeter and tastier than the first day.

Japanese>English

Rice used is something from Mie Prefecture Aged for 4 years, pale amber in color. Smoky and graininess with the color as it is. The sweetness is elegant, and the spiciness in the aftertaste has an impact on the throat and nose. It is a little peculiar, but I personally like it! I don't know what the original flavor was, but it has a nice aged feel. ❣️
