This is a gift from Koshino Kagetora Super Dry Sake. It is said to be super dry, but it is a delicious sake that is refreshing and easy to drink 🍶🎶.

#Nagoya Nishiki 3-chome#Nagoya wada/asa/tan/wisteria The aroma is strong and light. Dry Sukkiri is good 😁.

Next up, on to Keitoh! Unlike the previous Kutouryuu, the sweetness is gone and the dryness has shifted. It resets the oiliness with a refreshing light dryness that is typical of Niigata👍. It has great potential as a food sake!

Brewed by Sakata Fermentation in Sakata, Yamagata Michinoku Yamagata Doburoku, limited edition of fragrant gin doburoku My favorite Sakata Fermentation 😆 This time, we have a new product, "Aroma Gin Dobu", which was not available before. This time it was "Aroma Gin Dobu" which was very rare! First of all, I drank only the supernatant. What a great taste! It's gassy and full of sweetness and umami 😆. Then I mixed it and drank it as doburoku. I knew it was a stable Sakata Fermentation 😆. It's so good backslash! Gorgeous aroma and gaseous taste and the super flavor of the rice It's an excellent harmony 😂.

Japanese>English

At the usual restaurant The third glass was a different yeast from the usual Kurodobu, the first of 5 different yeasts that are shipped out every month 😆. 601 is the oldest yeast currently available from the Association and is said to have a mild, clear aroma and umami (flavor).

with doburoku purchased at our usual store the day before. I enjoyed the sweet and sour flavor over the weekend. 😃

I received this sake from a friend and drank it at room temperature. I drank it at room temperature, and on the second day it became mellower and easier to drink. It is like a traditional sake.

Drinking comparison (๑🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶💕) This is for last month 💧. I'll have the ones I drank this year before the end of this year... 💧. Memo note Alone It has a light sweetness, but it is moderate compared to AKABU. Suitable for a mealtime drink Delicious with fresh tuna from Miyagi Prefecture 😋. Warmed to lukewarm Sourness and alcohol taste My personal preference is about room temperature😸.

Oh, I want to drink Hama Musume.... Apparently, one out of every three people in Iwate Prefecture has this urge. This is the Iwate-only junmai sake that I keep buying on repeat. A privilege of Iwate residents. **:. o(≧▽≦)o . . :**

The aroma is cemedine smell, amber color...I think it is not good...but...the taste is sweet and bitter! The bitterness may bother you a little. It's a good choice for a food drink. You can feel the flavor of the Osan Nishiki rice. It's delicious.

Meister's Blend ☺️, which you don't usually see. It's called a blend of old brews. This is a good ministry ️. The old sake is not too peculiar, but mellow and sweetness is emphasized 😄. It's mellow and sweetness is emphasized 😄️. As time goes by, the custardiness will change to a raisin-like texture. I️ enjoy it every time I drink it 😆.

Easy to drink ❗ Crisp taste. After drinking it, the aroma of the rice lingers faintly. I was attracted by the hybrid method of Nanbu-ryu and Echigo-ryu on the label.

Fukushima sake tasting 🍶1 cup of KURADAIKO The aroma is so floral that it is hard to believe that it is junmai sake. It is dry at +10 degrees Celsius, but it is not only spicy but also has a strong umami flavor and is surprisingly easy to drink 😋. A cup of sake is not enough 😅

Japanese>English

We changed riverbanks and went to our main restaurant. And ikaninjin again at tsukidashi🤭The customer service and the atmosphere inside are good, and it looks like it is crowded with local customers. Best of all, the prices of the drinks are more reasonable than before. 👍️ The second sake was a clean, dry sake similar in style to Yuzu. This one has more of a lingering umami taste in the mouth. I couldn't help but reach for a brand I'd never heard of before 💦Kitakata sake.

Japanese>English

Next is the warehouse drums 😆. This is also a first for you: ☝️ It has a firm taste and a sour aroma, just like Yamahai 😊. I drank it cold, but enjoyed it heated from the middle 😁. The aroma is much fuller when heated, perfect for long autumn nights 😆.

The aroma is subtle, and the flavor does not interfere with the food...! You can feel the deliciousness of the rice, but it has a good balance of humility 🍶 No wonder it's so popular...I'll be sipping it with a side of Hakata's specialty "sesame mackerel" and Chiba's specialty "sesame sardines"...sipping it with a sip!

Fizzy Fresh Sweetness Fruity Acidity Umami Bitterness Juicy

White peaches, strawberry gum, and a nice smell of sake lees on the sales floor. I have a feeling it's already delicious. Juicy syrup with a fruity taste, sweet sourness runs when you try to swallow. Once the taste fades, there is a slight effervescence, a light but not persistent sweetness, and a numbing sensation at the back of the tongue. Occasional bitterness. Overall, it is an elegant sweet sake with a sense of transparency. It is better to drink it in small sips rather than gulping it down.

Japanese>English

Smells of peach, sake lees, and cream. Slightly effervescent, with a tangy, popping acidity, a slight sweetness and bitterness, it has a unique flavor and is clear to drink. It is a dangerous drink that can be drunk like water, as if the tongue becomes numb. My legs are dizzy. Delicious.

I've had Kanazawa-ya from the same brewery at an outing, but this is my first time drinking it. I had never heard of rice called "Takaneminori" before. It has a fresh aroma with a hint of cemedine. The impression is that it fades out after a pause from the refreshing feeling, followed by a gutsy sweet flavor. It is a new sake, but it has a strong umami.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ Sweet ripeness. It's good with a slight old wine feel.

It has been a long time since I found a new sake, so I didn't hesitate to get it. The taste in my memory is hazy, but this time it was a little sweeter. In retrospect, I think it may be the difference between the +5 I drank before and the -3 I drank this time. But I never get tired of drinking new sake with its youthfulness, strength commensurate with its strength, and robust flavor.

Hanpukai Sake The label says Kiku-zakari, the sakenowa says Tokikumori. I believe the label. Last year it had a classic impression, but this year it feels modern fruity. Maybe it was my physical condition, but it was different from my image. I enjoyed it very much. I drank it while playing mahjong and got very drunk. Double soup with pork and beef bones? Is it basically pork? It was thick and tasty. It went well with thin noodles.

Japanese>English

Today's sake is Nagano sake, from the Shinshu secret hanpukai. I can't seem to get this kanji to come up on my kanji converter, so I'll just write it in hiragana 🤣. This sake was a strange one that divided opinions in my family😅. I felt it was very fruity and sweet, but Kaorin said it had a heavy impression, and for the first time in a long time, our opinions were completely different😅. But I'm sure it's a great drink 😇 Today we saw the latest Silence of the Fleet in 4DX at a movie theater near Expo Park 😀. It was a submarine movie, and Kaori-chan and I both got hit by a lot of water droplets and the shaking of the submarine, but we enjoyed it very much 😇.

Japanese>English

This is my first Kikumori. It's smooth and less acidic, which is good to pair with sashimi or other fish cuisine.
