Record of 2021/7/20 Gunma Cup Classic sake with the taste of rice.

Japanese>English

This is the last Maikaze series for this year. It's been quite a while, but we'll be having "Mt. Haruna" for the last time! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a relaxing sweet aroma. It has a peachy aroma. It also has a slightly banana-like flavor. The palate is smooth, as is typical of Gunma sake, with a slight sweetness that is typical of "Maifu" and a nice astringent taste that plays an active role in the background! The astringency also gives it a mineral taste, which I personally feel is similar to the "Tenpyo Junmai" that I drank before👍. In the latter half, the astringency becomes the main taste, which reminds me of grapefruit. It melts away at the end, so it goes down smoothly! I've enjoyed many Maikaze series this year, including "Akagisan"✨I'm looking forward to next year!

Moved to the corner of Matsuzaki in Kawagoe. This is my first time at the fashionable Yellow Cherry Blossom. It is easy to drink and refreshing. It is the opposite of Kappa's sake. The reason why I couldn't feel the Aizan sensation must be because I was drunk.

(ˊ일ˋ )🍶🍶🍶🍶 Drink and cheer 📣✊. This sake is from Shimizu Sake Brewery in Kawai-cho, Wajima, which suffered a big fire after the Noto Peninsula earthquake. The building was not completely destroyed or destroyed by fire, but there was a lot of damage 😢This is the first sake from the brewery I have ever had. The aroma is only a little, and the sake is a solid amber color🤔It says it is dry, but it has a refreshing umami taste😊The sweetness and acidity are moderate and the aftertaste is super refreshing😚✨You will not get tired of drinking it and it will go down easy😇 It's a delicious sake that can reset your palate during a meal 🥳👍.

Hearing that Kanazawa is in the midst of a tourist slump, the wife and I went to Kanazawa Oden, and I had mixed feelings about being able to easily get into a restaurant that usually has a long line. A few restaurants were closed temporarily. Kanazawa was hardly damaged by the earthquake, and I hope everyone will come to Kanazawa! Now, Senmaida, rice from Senmaida in Wajima is partially used. Although it is junmai, it is not that heavy and easy to drink. It is light and crisp. The wife also likes it. The waitress said there were only 3 bottles left and that she would not be able to drink them for a while! We hope it will come back.

Sake Rice Hokuriku Series. This time, the tori is Hyakumangoku No, developed by Ishikawa Prefecture, and the 24th brewery in the prefecture? Noto Honor. Is it a characteristic of Noto Honor or Hyakumangakkino White? It is fruity, but I think it is a classic sake.

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.

20230902 The last one is Junmai Ginjo (*^^*). This series is just delicious! It has a rich flavor that conveys the goodness of the water as well 🍶. Thank you very much for your kindness.

Rice used is Comet The tanks are buried in the snow to mature the sake. It does not have a sense of maturity, but has a round mouthfeel and a crisp finish. It is a good summer sake.

Japanese>English

My junior from Hokkaido bought some sake as a souvenir and we drank it at home together. It seems to be stored in the snow. The sake is light and dry. It goes well with any kind of food. We had yakitori and hormone today. The sake and the snack are delicious, and the talk is fun. The best.

As smooth as water. Fruity and smooth. It is a summer sake!

It is high in cosmetics. Light and refreshing, but also soft and sweet, it is a swishy drink.

I had to drink this one in a rush so we could check out of our hotel and continue our trip. The sake was sweet and sour with hints of melon. Thank you Kyoto for a wonderful time!

I jumped at the chance to buy this sake because it had a sticker saying that it had won the highest gold medal for sake in a wine glass. It was slightly sweet and fragrant, but also had the feeling of drinking sake, and I thought it would go well with Western food.

I bought a bottle of Asakai at the supermarket for the first time in a long time. It's a little cold, so I had it warmed up. It has a nice sweetness to it. The accompaniment is black soybean edamame. It goes well with it.

The best way to win a win! I bought it at the sake shop Yamaya. It is one of the two bottles for 1600 yen. It is a very mild and light daiginjo. I think it's good for a meal. Holy shit!

Quite fruity and easy to drink. It is also refreshing to the throat and I drank too much😵🍺.

Sentoku, a gift from Sentoku...Junmai is a traditional ...the... Junmai is a traditional sake...the local sake! It's a little bit different from the popular sake...but I think it's a good sake for a meal. I don't like Ginshizuku and Kinshizuku because they are alkaloids... Thanks for the hard-to-find sake 🍶... Hmmm... I guess that's what general sake is like.... Now I have to go to Okinawa...

Ordered to win the national championship. The rice has a robust flavor. It is surprisingly easy to cut. Perfect with meat dishes.

Japanese>English

I wish I could have been there to see it all! The other day I walked past the liquor section of a large supermarket and found a familiar name for a sake 😁I found Chitoku, the gateway to Miyazaki Prefecture 🐎 breaking through the impregnable castle gate of Miyazaki Prefecture 🐎. It's a cup of sake, but it's a celebration. If I hadn't seen the sakenowa, I wouldn't have noticed it. Thank you all 😄😄😄.

Kinmyo Junmai Sake 60% 15-16% 720ml Kinmyo by Negami Shuzo is my new favorite sake. The acidity is up from last year. The characteristic custardiness is almost gone, and a green apple-like fruitiness has been added instead. It also has a spiciness to it. It is a different taste from last year. I prefer the taste of last year's, but this is still good! Rumor has it that he makes it all by himself. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20240122

Japanese>English

(*^_^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Shizuoka business trip (Part 1) I got a bottle of Kinmei which I think I bought at Matsuura Sake Brewery. The aroma was mild, with a nice, smooth sweetness and umami 😊There was also a touch of acidity afterwards, which made it seem a bit dry 😚👍. It seemed like a sake that goes well with food 🥳.

Japanese>English

No label, which is very rare in this world. The taste is profound and robust with a very gorgeous aroma.
