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.

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.

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!

Just by the echoes of the Nebuta, there is also a please-sake, isn't there? I asked him to do so, but he ignored all my requests. So I drank the Momokawa nebuta in loneliness. I don't know what it tasted like, but I deserved it. I'm too drunk 🫣. Well, I don't know about myself, but I seem to be at a level where I can't keep up with both Tokyo and Kansai 😱. He was the only one who saw everything.

This Sake is a nice change from what I have been drinking recently. It has a sugary sweetness similar to a ripe muscat. There is a Medium mouth feel followed by a slight dryness at the finish for a clean aftertaste. Delicious. 😋
Sake at home after a long time 🍶.

Three staggering drunks strolling to the next restaurant🐾🐈🐾 We drank only our favorites at the first restaurant, so the second one was Aomori sake (๑🍶๑🍶🍶´-) Yum! Fruity! I decided to go to ❣️ because I had never had it before and because of the words "fruity". Exactly! Aomori means scallops 🥰. This is the first time I actually ate them there 🎶. It tastes gentler than the ones I make myself ☺️ I'll use it as a reference for the next time I make it.

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store event, Sake Tour. I compared it with Junmai Ginjo and was impressed with this one, so I bought it. Fresh and citrusy? It is sweet at the beginning, but the sweetness and umami come in the second half of the bottle. I have to admit that I've only seen Hyo Hyohi at department store events. Apparently, the brewery that makes the sake is in Awa City, which is different from the address on the label.

Dry taste that goes well with chicken on the bone. It washes away the oil from the chicken. A quick sip with a cup of sake will reset your palate from the strong flavors of tsukune, kawa, liver, etc., and you will be ready for the next dish. You will be ready for the next dish in a flat state.

My parents-in-law gave me this sake as a souvenir from Tanba Sasayama. It's a completely unknown brand, so I was very nervous when I opened the bottle. Maybe it's because we've been drinking a lot of autumn sake lately, but it's surprisingly refreshing 😳 You can drink it easily without getting stuck. It has a faint sourness and a spiciness that comes afterwards, and then it goes away quickly. It's a sake made with clean water that goes well with all kinds of food. We enjoyed it with pork kimchi and horse mackerel sashimi. I want to drink it carefully, but it will probably be gone in two days☺️.

The one we got. This is a decansho-bushi, it seems. The flavor comes in slowly and flows gently through to the aftertaste.

This sake is brewed by Umeshiki Yamakawa, a subsidiary of the major sake maker Hakutsuru Shuzo. In recent years, Hakutsuru Shuzo has purchased a number of breweries from across Japan. The Aomori-based brewer Momokawa, which uses Hakutsuru Nishiki, is also a subsidiary company of Hakutsuru Shuzo. Not much of an aroma, slight whiff of alcohol. Dry, watery and clean on the palate, with little umami and a slight alu taste. After drinking it, it has a light throat feeling with a faint sweetness. It is a standard shokuchu sake. For the snacks, we had stewed kalbi and root vegetables, mussel pickled in soy sauce, chili bonito sakutome, and baby star ramen with the flavor of kondashi. It goes best with sakabuto, which enhances its sweetness.

Next was a sake I'd never seen before, so here it is. As soon as you take a sip, a very unique habit spreads! What is this? What a shocking taste! Looking at the label carefully, I found a hint of plum flavor? If it's the astringent bitter taste of plum, I'm convinced: 🙂↕️ I don't think I'll ever drink it again😅.

The first drink of the day. I drank it cold. It is fruity and has a sake-like taste. It is relatively light and easy to drink. I read in another post that it has a plum aroma when heated, so I thought I'd like to try it.

🏠 Drinking ( -̀ -́ )୨⚑︎゛ I didn't care for the aroma. Crisp ‼️ and no bitterness. Maybe a light acidity when paired with veggies😊. For the entrée... Yakitori with sauce made with rice wine 🐓. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it with vegetables Rice used, Miyamanishiki Yeast, Kyokai 701 Alcohol 13%. Personal preference among 4 types 4️⃣ I received a bottle of sake that has been stored at room temperature for a wacky long time... I tried to drink it but it was old sake ( ´-̥̥̥̥̥ω̥̥̥̥̥̥`) I got about 7 kinds of sake including Tasake and Jyushiyo... What a waste 😭😭😭 The sauce made with Tasake was delicious though 🥲.

(*´~*)🍶🍶🍶🍶´- I got Kurobe Pincer from Hayashi Sake Brewery in Toyama Prefecture 😀. I asked the lady at the store to recommend a new arrival, and since Hayashi was not yet available, I bought a bottle of Kurobe Pincer from the same brewery 😚. The aroma is not so much but a little peachy 🍑? It is fresh on the palate with a gentle sweetness and rice flavor 🌾😋 It is a delicious sake that finishes with a bit of an alkali aftertaste 😆👍✨.

I look forward to Toyama hiyaoroshi every year 😊. I chose Kurobe Gorge this year as well 😆. This year may be different from previous years⁉️. The aroma is sweet and rummy. The taste is less fruity and sweeter and calmer than usual 🤔. Sweet and calm 🤔. Surprisingly, there is no alcohol taste. It is easy to drink and the 270ml is gone in no time. It will be gone soon!
