I heard a voice actor say that the sake of Yamaguchi Prefecture is delicious ottersai, but Toyo Bijin! So I bought it. It's very dry, and the first sip is so spicy that it's hard to believe, but the aftertaste disappears quickly. Yes, it is indeed delicious. I want to drink the other ones too. This is good. I also got some sake for the new year, but I'll post more about that in the New Year.

Japanese>English

I'm not going to let anything stop me. Lightly crisp, fruity, sweet and sour aroma. Melon Horseback or Pear Because it is origari, it is light white. The aftertaste is moderately sour and refreshing. It is easy to drink and is perfect for when you want to lift your spirits.

Japanese>English

This is my first Toyo Bijin. I had drunk Yachiyo Shuzo's Room twice and wondered what kind of Toyo Bijin was in its class, but I happened to find it at a store I had been visiting for a while, so I bought it on the spur of the moment! The standing aroma is tropical and a bit gorgeous with pineapple and melon fruits. Is this the sweetness of Oriental Beauty? The sweetness is firm but moist and not stinging! There is also an impression of peach in addition to the fruits mentioned earlier. It is sweet, but not unpleasantly so, and has a very elegant bitterness, so it can be paired with appetizers, such as salads and cheese. This is the taste of Miyamanishiki of Hanahayo and Junodai of Hachitanishiki, right? This is delicious! Speaking of fruity sweet sake without any corners, Ding was great, but Toyo Bijin is also great!

It is a gift from Niigata 🙏. Yukichubai is a classic light and dry wine. but this one seems to be a seasonal summer sake. It is a seasonal summer sake with a refreshing taste🎶. It is slightly sweet and has a nice sharpness! The alcohol content was high, so it was better to drink it on the rocks. It was better to drink it on the rocks👍

Japanese>English

Back in the day, Niigata's Sanbai was an extremely hard-to-find brand. I often visited Niigata Takata on business and was often presented with it. At the time, I had no interest in sake at all and almost never went through with it. Now, in 2021, Koshino-Kanbai is easily available at Aeon. Mine-no-Hakubai is also often seen as Hishiko at local liquor stores. However, Yukinubai is not so easy to find in my hometown. So, I got it on a business trip to Joetsu. I paired it with a taste of spring, firefly squid and broccoli with olive oil. It has a moderate aroma of cemedine or banana. It is sweet. It harmonizes with the sweetness and bitterness of firefly squid and broccoli. Lastly, there is a final bitter taste that is refreshing and delicious in the mouth!

Japanese>English

It is a gift from my brother back home. We drank the rest of the sake at the New Year's party. We had a stable Honjozo and a more beautiful Daiginjo. Both of them were good sake.

The freshly squeezed aroma... The sourness is strong on the palate, and there is a bitter aftertaste... Is it because it is freshly squeezed? It's a little rough. It's a good choice to drink with tuna and squid sashimi.

Japanese>English

The first Kinokuniya Bunzaemon! It has the fresh aroma of unpasteurized sake and a smooth, non-viscous mouthfeel. When you drink it, the spiciness comes quickly, but in the end, it disappears, leaving the flavor of rice and a lingering aftertaste. It has a high alcohol content of 18 degrees, which makes it very drinkable, but it is also very refreshing and tasty.

Japanese>English

Here's another one that was given to me. The aroma of the sake is very alcoholic. The taste is sweet and delicious. The aroma is the sake! You can feel a little acidity and bitterness in the finish. I think it is a bottle with a moderate heaviness in total. The taste is similar to that of Kadoden from among the already-checked-in products. The efficacy report says it is good at room temperature to warmed sake. It's a solid sake, so it's best not to chill it too much. It's good for summer! It was not a good one! Thank you for the food!

Diachiku Junmai Ukiyoe Alcohol percentage 15 Rice polishing ratio 59 This is the second izakaya in Kamisuwa. This is a Chino City sake. It is quite light and good. I would like to try some other sake. We drank a lot of sake in the Gokuraku set, but this is the second Izakaya? It's almost ready ^ ^.

Japanese>English

I was looking for a property today, but there was a sake store nearby, so I bought some on the way home! I didn't buy it this time, but it was a good sake store that also had Kuroryu and Hakusan ✨. When I opened the bottle, it had a mild sweet aroma like banana. The palate is clean and tangy, light and dry, but as you taste it, the sweetness and a little bitterness come out and it tastes like vanilla or caramel pudding! It is a delicious and crisp taste. I have a feeling that I will go back if I can successfully sign a contract for a property. I wonder if I can go to Koyama Shoten from Yamanashi sometimes... and imagine the lifestyle I will have 🍶.

Ukiyoe" is a junmai ginjo sake from Diachiku. It is also smooth and has a light ginjo aroma characteristic of junmai ginjo.　A taste of Chino, Shinshu, to be found in Shinbashi.

Next, we open a bottle of "Izutsucho"! When the bottle is opened, there is not much of an aroma, but there is a coffee-like aroma, such as café au lait, that can be detected. The palate is light, but the taste is milky and milky. There is also a bitter and astringent taste, which gives the sensation of drinking a green tea latte 🍵. THE caffeinated beverage! This is so addictive👍

Dam Mature! With the cooperation of Nagano Prefecture and Sakuho Town, we are experimenting, researching, and promoting the use of the audit corridor of the prefectural room dam built for flood control in the blessed nature of Shinshu, not only as an effective use of existing facilities, but also as a method that reduces energy load and is distinct from the standardized storage method of refrigeration. Experiments and research on storage and maturation over the summer are conducted and released! The pleasantly soft mouthfeel and gorgeous gin aroma are bright and mellow, and the depth of flavor has increased over the summer.

Sweet and sour, faintly effervescent, with a delicious sweet aroma. No oakyness. Kurosawa nama-hashiroshi tokubetsu junmai nama sake mixed with some kind of sake. It tastes awfully good. Kurosawa Shuzo Autumn Sake Brewery Open House 2025/10/4 (Sat) 9:30-15:00 The tasting starts 5 minutes before 9:30, so it's pretty loose. Suki. Sake lees soup, amazake (sweet sake), kasuzuke (pickles with sake lees), and barrel sake will be served. 30 kinds of sake are available for tasting for 1500 yen (only the first glass is free for KEG). Local vegetables and snacks from restaurants are also available for purchase. The event attracts a wide range of customers from children to the elderly. The Matsumoto - Saku area is only a short drive by car through a tunnel, but by public transportation, access was moderately difficult as you had to make a detour to Kobuchisawa. But it was a great harvest for the gods.

Pampakapa~n📯. Here we come, J&N 600 check-in: ‼️ The Tochigi sake rate at 500 CI was 20%, but after that, the rate went up to 31% with only 100 bottles until 600 CI⤴️ I think the comparison of Sentori renewal was effective after all👍And so, it jumped to #2 after Shinsei in the Sake-no-wa ranking, right? Amazing‼️ The number one is SENKOURI 🤗...but let's continue with the "buy one you've never had before" 😊The commemorative bottle was chosen by "TAMAKA" 🤗. I've been curious about this one from Watanabe Shuzo in Kyokko for a while! I'll make love to you! Slightly yellow color 😌. The first sip is a bit astringent and delicious 🧐 with a robust flavor and a tight acidity 😋. I'm going to try this one! I'm sure this is his cue 🤔"Yamada-kun, bring me the one I was talking about" "ha~yayakuma~" So, here we are at Nonbee Yokocho😙. I knew it was the heated sake 🍶! The name "J&N Sake no Wawa" means "sake that tastes good heated". I'm sure you'll both feel the warmth 🤗Sasukechi here! Yes, it's already delicious from the aroma 😋...take a sip...😍you can't help but grin 🤭I'm in a great mood 🥹! If it's over 30%, it's top-notch! I love Tochigi 🥰!

This is the wrong brand it’s from Tochigi from Hokkan. The cheapest sake in Donquixote in Bangkok and so very smooth and balanced at medium chill. It’s actually very close to water.

This Sake is amber color and has a full mouth feel. The flavor of dates gives this a sweet overall taste and the cedar provides sophistication. There is also some acidity that gives this a clean, dry finish. 🧐

Yamahai Junmai Nigori🍶 Yamadanishiki from Itoshima🌾. Bitter and delicious ✨. Dry. Less flabby than it looks. The bitterness is diluted a little by the squid. Gives a grassy feel. Shrimp cheese spring roll 🦐🧀 with chili sauce makes it sweet 😅Omoro 😆. Sea and @ Takadanobaba 20230608

For my sixteenth cup, I decided on "Bida"! I decided to have it because I missed my trip to Fukuoka last year👍. The taste is cloudy and thick, with a lot of rice flavor. The dryness also makes it easy to drink for a mukuri-shu, and it washes down the fat from the pork bowl I had earlier, making it just right for a reset ✨.

It is not only sweet. Sweet, a little spicy with a touch of spiciness, acid, drinkable. Well made and named.

Hmmm...it's +10 dry, but I feel the dry finish is very good. It's not too dry and spicy, but it's full of spiciness and delicious flavor. You can enjoy it. It reminds me of ears of rice under the blue sky of Shonai, a rice place.

Introducing a izakaya with an austere, connoisseur-like atmosphere. I was interested in this sake because a guide recommended it on a TV program. I was curious about this sake. ‼️ I heard it is very popular sake in Niigata. I didn't know that😅 It has no aroma. ❗️ It has no habit and it's refreshing and easy to drink. It is easy to drink. ❗️ I don't feel the umami and sweetness when it's cold so I'd like to try it heated next time 😊. I would like to drink it heated next time 😊.
