It arrived just a few minutes ago. This morning, the sake was pressed early in the morning. It seems I forgot to buy it last year, but this year I reserved it and bought it. I couldn't stand it, so I had a cup in my inoguchi. I love Tomikunishiki, but this year's Risshun morning pressing has a little acidity, a clean throat, and not much of an aftertaste. It's delicious!

Japanese>English

I went to the Tomikunishiki New Sake Festival yesterday and today. I bought a bottle of Shiboritate and sake lees this year too. I opened the bottle right away. This year's Shiboritate seems to be more fruity than usual. It's delicious. I love Tomihunishiki after all❤️.

Japanese>English

It's that time of year again ♪ We were able to get enough plums for two bottles, so we have two this year. One of them, actually I couldn't pickle plums last year because of the bad harvest, so I left it, but I hope it's okay. Basic shape and refreshing. I'm looking forward to winter ☺️.

36Guardians⚔️ I've had a nice change of tastes, and was recommended to me by the liquor store ✨. It used to be a very traditional and strong flavor, but now it's a very refreshing and crisp taste, The price is 500 yen (), but it's not bad. The price is also 500 yen (⤴️), I guess the price is 500 yen (), but the taste is acceptable 😋. But I think it peaks on the first day it is opened. After that, it might be better to drink it warmed up.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Miyamanishiki I miss the 36th person. I used to buy it at my favorite liquor store about 20 years ago. It has a subtle ginjo aroma and a refreshing taste. The acidity and bitterness give it a taste of white wine. The sweetness increases as the temperature rises after a little time. It is also good as a food sake.

Japanese>English

A sake from Yamagata. It is brewed with Yamada Nishiki. Gorgeous aroma of Daiginjo. It has a clear taste of light and dry. I felt it was very easy to drink with good mouthfeel. I want to drink more of it! A gem that makes you want to drink more.

Mishio Junmai Ginjo Omachi 100% Omachi produced in Okayama Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15-16%. Sake meter degree +2, acidity 1.8 (reference) Fat 5/7, opened 5/23 I wanted to drink a dry sake from Kochi and was attracted by the label that looked like a pattern of playing cards I used to have at my parents' house 🤣. The brand "Bishio" is a new brand that started in 2014. It is one of the Junmai Ginjo series that is based on the concept of "elegant sweetness reminiscent of honey" and is part of a trilogy that includes "Kitashizuku", "Gin no Yume", and "Omachi". The aroma is almost imperceptible after opening the bottle. In the mouth, it has a fruity, fruity aroma and flavor, but at the same time, the alcohol is very strong. The acidity is moderate and not harsh. The acidity is not too strong, but it's more spicy and tingling than the number 😅. I tried to drink it after 4 days, which is unusual for me, but although the mouthfeel got better, the strong alcohol feeling didn't go away. The aftertaste is light, so it would be classified as light-dry. It's like a Tosa sake in that respect 😊. Unfortunately, it didn't suit me and was disappointing 😅. Oh! Maybe I should have tried heating it up 🤔.

Japanese>English

Just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. I had never seen "Mishio" before.

A beautiful sweetness spreads in the mouth. After that, it's dry, to say the least. I like this sweetness. It is not persistent. 88 points Sweetness: 3.4 Acidity: 2.4 Dryness:3 Hinted aroma:3.1

I couldn't go anywhere during the second half of GW because I had to stay at home. So on the last day, I will just enjoy the feeling of traveling with this cup of sake. It has an alcoholic taste, but it is sweet and easy to drink. Since it is a Hokkaido sake, we also had some delicacies that Men-chan gave us. Thank you very much.

Japanese>English

I picked it up thinking, "Oh my God, it's cute," but was surprised to find it to be a solid and delicious sake with a solid and robust flavor.

The first Toyoshu in a long time is a pure rice sake brewed with the Yamanokami yeast derived from sasayuri (a kind of lily of the valley) that blooms in the sacred grounds of the Ogami Shrine, a sacred place for sake. If you are a sake drinker in Nara, you must try this 😁. Perhaps it was because I was used to light and fruity junmai sake, but it was alcoholic, not too sweet, and had a firm mouthfeel. But it has a modern feel and is easy to drink. Yamano kami yeast was surprisingly not peculiar 🤔. Thank you for the food 🙏. I think I'll go visit Ookami shrine ⛩ again.

It's finally New Year's Eve! For the first time this year, I was able to participate in "Sake-no-Wa" and it was fun and I learned a lot. Thank you very much😊. Now, we are having a limited edition sake that was just pressed this morning. Fresh, crisp, umami, delicious! It's going to be a good New Year's Eve 😋.

Is this the first Aizan for this brand? The sweet flavor is sustained from the first sip.

Slightly cloudy. Smoky aroma like smoked fish, but round and quite sweet in the mouth. It would be great if it wasn't smoky...

Japanese>English

It was hard to ask them to let me take a picture because they looked so busy, so no picture. The aroma is classic Japanese sake. When you drink it, it is quite refreshing and slightly sweet. The color is dark and I wonder if it has aged a bit. I was allowed to take a picture of it as the restaurant was getting settled, so I switched it out.

Bought it for a moment with Rusty Cat Rock. Also got Funaguchi Smoked incense! It has a strong alcohol taste, but it has a sweetness with a tangy flavor and a spiciness that is very strong. Much tastier than I expected.

Japanese>English

It was given to me by my brother back home. Vegetables as well. Deep fried and soaked. For the main dish, I served a bonito tataki with a mountain of myoga (Japanese ginger). Today's dish is from the Niigata series. The dry sake went well with it.

Niigata Souvenirs Part 2 The last one was a gift from Kimi no Ii, along with the Yukinaka Ume. Seasonal summer sake ☀️ It was hot yesterday, so I chilled it to the perfect temperature before serving. It was so hot yesterday, so I chilled it and enjoyed it! It has almost no aroma and a smooth taste. The aftertaste is a little bit peculiar. but the low alcohol content makes it easy to drink. It is very easy to drink! It was delicious 😄.

Finished eating shish-kebabs Take a nap at the hotel An hour before the end of the lounge service, I popped into the lounge. I had heard from the front desk that they serve alcohol, so I rushed over to the lounge. Sake was available! This brand from Imai-cho, Kashihara City, Nara Prefecture, is called "Deze Otoko"! Unebi or Unebi? On the rocks with ice in the glass! It has more punch than expected! I drank it in small sips, but in the second half I drank it with ginger ale, which is not a good idea! Maybe it is better to drink it hot! Tomorrow we will visit Nara's Yamato Sanzan (three mountains in the Yamato region), and then we will make it to Wakayama in the evening. Do you think we have enough time to get to Koyasan?

The toast was Tsuji Zenbei, from the Tochigi sake drinking contest. It is a sake from Moka city, a neighbor of Utsunomiya. 💁🏻‍♀️ It has a soft mouthfeel and a nice, clear, high acidity sharpness...

PREMIUM S 1800ml Ingredients ... Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic), Brewer's alcohol Rice used ... 100% domestic rice Rice polishing ratio ... 68 Alcohol percentage ... 16 We had it bundled with Urasato Usu Nigori. I was attracted by the concept of cheap and tasty sake. If you try to get rid of the miscellaneous flavors, you lose the umami, and I wondered how it was possible to keep it. I felt that the umami was more pronounced on the second and third days than on the first day. I wonder if I expected a little too much, but I am curious to know how it is in the local market.

Japanese>English

I've never had this sake before❗️. There are many delicious sake in Tochigi, so I'm looking forward to opening the bottle 😀. The aroma is subdued❗️ I'm not sure if this is the first time I've had it, but I'm sure it will be the last. When the temperature rises slightly, the sweetness and sourness are refined and the aftertaste disappears like water👍. The overall balance of the sake was good and it was very easy to drink😄.

Koikawa Shuzo Junmai Ginjo Kamejikohi 720ml Rice ： 100% Kame-no-o produced in Yamagata Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 55 Alcohol : 15.3 My wife entered this sake in a CS historical drama program and won it. It is said that this sake brewery is related to the writer Shuhei Fujisawa. This is also some kind of fate. Now, what does it taste like? It is quite classical. My wife said it was just fine. It is best to warm it up a little.

100% Kame-no-o. Dry and more refreshing than expected. You can also taste the umami of the rice. Delicious.
