This is a junmai sake from the north of the Kinjitake Brewery. The sweetness comes from the mild umami. It is a delicious sake with a good acidity followed by a bitter taste. I had it at room temperature. It is a good one👍🍶🎶.

I guess this is one of the answer songs to the real Kin Fat reviewed by Manachie 😅. I sometimes stock a series of small bottles for when I want to drink a little 🎵Hokkaido is brewed by Kinteki Shuzo 🎵Kinteki...no, Kinteki 😉 Not much aroma, spicy, watery sake, light bitterness 🍶 I felt rice on the aftertaste 😃. Classical but good for eating ❗

Here is another memorandum (I have been slacking lately) I got this one when I visited Gifu in summer. The alcohol content is high, but it has a clean aftertaste and the sweetness of the rice spreads in the mouth 👌

7 points (Wife 7.5) Rice : Ehime Shizuku Ehime Rice polishing ratio : 60 Sake Degree : ±0 Purchased from: Mizuguchi Shuzo, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture Silent when opened, no gassiness Pineapple-like aroma with a hint of rice flavor. The same mild aroma as the first sip, soft rice flavor and moderate sweetness spreads with a little acidity, and finishes quickly with a hint of bitterness and a little alcohol spiciness. Overall, it is refreshing and easy to drink. It is good for accompanying a meal, but it may be too smooth as a stand-alone sake. The taste may have changed since the one I bought from a brewery in Ehime this time last year came out of the fridge. It went well with spicy grilled minos and Umaibo shrimp mayonnaise flavor.

At home. I had it with my son. It has a spicy aroma, but the taste is light and the aftertaste is clean and easy to drink. There are many sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture, so I would like to try them little by little.

Event at Hanshin Racecourse (・・・・) We came to enjoy drinks and throw away money! Today, I'm here for this. It's the one with a good reputation! Nada's sake with a solid core. It has a dry taste and sharpness. There is an accent of acidity. The light aroma on the nose was just right! This is indeed a perfect sake! My expectation is the worst, but all the sakes I drank today were perfect!

We went on a bullet trip to a hot spring in Gunma 😆♨️ Before arriving at the ryokan, we went to a local liquor store. I decided to buy some Gunma sake at a local liquor store before we arrived at the ryokan! I was so excited, I visited Takahashi Yo Shoten for the first time, which I sometimes order from Corona Disaster! I visited Takahashi Yoh Shoten for the first time! I found a bottle of sake that I had ordered before and was very impressed. The Gan brewed by Mikito Takai, who is no longer with the company, was really delicious, so I chose the New Gan with the feeling that I would like to try it too. I was surprised to find that it was brewed by Mikito Takai! And it's still delicious 😭✨ It was great slightly chilled, but also great warmed 👍. Not spectacular, but deeply delicious... And it's so cosy! I brought home the rest of the bottle. I'm going to drink it with care 🍶🎶.

Light and sweet. The sweetness reminds me of bubble gum with the flavor of apple. The aftertaste is clean, short and slightly dry. Very enjoyable to drink on a warm evening.

Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:60 It is distributed exclusively by a special distributor. The label design looked like Kuroryu, so when I first saw it, I thought it was a new series of Kuroryu. The color is slightly yellowish. The aroma was subdued and not very noticeable. The taste is refreshing with a predominance of umami and bitterness in the aftertaste. There is not much sweetness, and a little bit of sourness. In general, it was a dry food sake.

Hekiryu Dry Junmai Sake The aroma is soft and fluffy, but the taste is sharp and sharp, but it does not go down the throat harshly. It finishes like water, which is a strange feeling. It has the depth of a Junmai sake, but leaves the palate refreshed.

100% Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, with wine yeast. It is said that the name "Sora no Tsuru" comes from a dream of riding a beautiful "crane" soaring in the sky. Wine yeast is great because it makes rice sweet and sour! The top aroma is of grappa and rum raisins. When swirled, it smells of plum. The flavor is very sweet and sour, like plum wine. The color is a pale yellowish hue like lemon pulp, the legs are short and weak.

It is a sake from Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture. It is only available directly in the city, and there are only a limited number of stores where you can drink it. I found it at a store selling Hyogo products in Kobe Hankyu in Sannomiya and bought it. How does it taste? It does not have the harshness of the original sake. It has a chocolate-like aroma. It has a rich sweetness, with spiciness and astringency chasing after it. The chocolatey and caramel-like aroma that passes through the nose is delightful. If you let it air a little, it becomes more brightly sweet and fragrant. It is simple, but quite flamboyant. How about if you heat it up? It tastes like chestnuts and is easy to drink! The spiciness that comes out volatilely and the refreshing sweetness that comes in quickly. It has a rich and expressive taste. It is really good. The aftertaste is also refreshing and sharp with a nice sweetness. I think it is especially good when heated. I have now completed a round of the 70-odd breweries in Hyogo Prefecture (and have 300 reports to my name)! It took me two years to complete this feat. It was a long but enjoyable journey. I will continue to enjoy Hyogo sake (and Fukui sake as well) slowly and carefully, and hope to one day become an evangelist for good Hyogo sake...

a gift It was the first time I had ever had a fresh one in Honjozo. The mouthfeel is like mint? I've never had it before, but it's interesting. I think it leaves a little bit of a cloying taste at the end.

Oniyama Oniyamma Red Label ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Junmai sake, unfiltered and unpasteurized Rice polishing ratio 70%, ALC 18%. There is not much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can lightly feel the unique "shuwashu" (a kind of "shuwashu" in Japanese sake), and you can also taste a slightly fruity flavor. Chigasaki Kagisan: 20240418
