🏠 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 🥲.

@Osawa of Sake Rice used is unknown Not fruity at all. It is not light and dry, and has aged well. The taste is a mellow type with a strong umami. The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing for a Daiginjo. It is what is called "the sake of sake.

I stopped by Hashimoto Sake Brewery on my way to Yamanaka Onsen last year. The store is a bit like a museum, and you can learn a lot from the easy-to-understand explanations about the rice polishing ratio and the process of making sake. I was not able to taste the sake because I was the handle keeper, but the president recommended a lot of sake and my family was getting drunk (sweat). I drank it cold, but it was still dry. When I heated it up, it became soft, mellow, and easy to drink. The color is quite amber, so the polish may be shallow. Personally, I think drinking it at room temperature or hot is the right way to go. I like to drink sweet sake cold, but I'm starting to think it would be nice to drink dry sake hot ( ˘ω˘ ).

Grape, peach and pineapple. Gorgeous, fruity aroma. The mouthfeel is refreshing. You can feel the flavor and also the bitterness. The acidity is moderate.

This is the sake I got for New Year's. Last year, I received one with gold dust, but perhaps because I said that the gold dust didn't come out when I poured it into the glass, they gave me a separate one with gold dust (lol). The sake is fruity and refreshing like wine, as it has been awarded the highest gold medal in the "Delicious sake in a wine glass" award. I enjoyed it with cheese👍.

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.

Shirakami Shizukutori unfiltered. It is a ginjo-shu with al-soze 🍶. The top aroma is slightly sweet. When you put it in your mouth, it is a little bit hard because it is freshly opened 🤔. Slight sweetness with a light aftertaste. I don't know how it will change in the future, but thank you ✨

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka_74 Aomori Prefecture Booth ③. Nakamura Kamekichi Corporation is located in Kuroishi City. This is a brewery that I had never heard of, as Tsugaru's local sake is relatively rare in other prefectures. Representative brands are Kamekichi and Tamadare. ◉Kamekichi Special Junmai Dry Sake The standard, mildly umami taste, with a clean finish that is not too assertive. It is not too spicy. ◉Kamekichi Junmai Ginjo Slightly sweet aroma, sweet and sour aftertaste, with a slight yoghurt-like acidity. The label makes it sound like a shochu, but it is a very tasty sake.

It is a popular sake that can be drunk at any restaurant. 🚄 When I search the internet, I see the word "bitterness" everywhere. word comes up I want to feel it 🍶´-. 5 year old sake (matured sake) old sake. When I drink it cold, the bitterness and pungency hit me at first. When I heated it up, the bitterness didn't disappear and sweetness came out 🤔. Maybe I prefer it cold 💕 It was so delicious! I want to drink fresh sake too 🍀. * #Nakamura Kamekichi Co. #Special Junmai Dry #Hanafukiyuki #Mutsuhomare #Old Sake #Aged Sake #Aomori#Aomori

Buy at the warehouse 1635 yen / 720ml My first Aomori sake. The brewery is located in the old town of Kuroishi City, which we reached after visiting Lake Towada and Oirase. The brewery is a magnificent structure and was the location for the historical drama "Inochi" (Life), with pictures of a young Yoshiko Mita and the late Toru Watanabe. The taste is soft and gentle. Maybe the water is different? Although the sake is labeled as a dry sake, it is not that dry, and it is delicious with a sweet taste. It seems that it could be a little more well-known and popular.
