Salmon Marche Week. Memory is hazy. Records are illegible. Here is the record. Kaga no Tsuki no Heating.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Hakutsuru Nishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture. This sake is gorgeous and very elegant. The balance between sweetness and fresh citrus bitterness is just right. This sake is very good and makes the sake cups go up and up. Under 2,000 yen for this specs and this deliciousness may be a bargain. It was delicious. ❣️

Japanese>English

I bought it because it was in Hankyu. I've had a sake called "Kaga no Tsuki no Niji" before, but I wonder if the contents are the same. It is thin and cloudy. It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a light pineapple flavor. The second half is quite pungent. There is something gentle in the mouthfeel that is unique to saké squeezed in a bag, isn't there?

〰fixture Association Yeast No. 601 🌾Weighing: Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture 2021/03 The umami of rice, which is typical of junmai, comes in softly. The astringent bitterness comes quickly. The bitterness is quite bitter.

Japanese>English

The first ooki tree When I hear the word "Yamahai," I have an image of strong acidity. This one, as usual, was characterized by its sharp acidity. The top-tasting aroma has a sense of sake behind the acidity. The mouthfeel is rather light, probably due to the crisp acidity. The flavor is not as strong as it should be. The aftertaste is full of sake-like aftertaste, followed by sourness and a strong bitterness. A closer look reveals that it is 18 degrees Celsius. No wonder it hits the back of the throat so hard. Moderately heavy! Thank you very much for the drink!

The concept was a sake that young people would want to drink, created by Iwate University students and Iwate Meizou with sake quality in mind. It was a refreshing sweet sake with a gorgeous aroma. The students of Iwate University who were involved in making this sake: ❗️ It is very delicious. Wonderful work. Thank you 😊.

The first sake I found at an Iwate Prefecture antenna store in Ginza. It is a rustic sake with a strong acidity. It also has a freshness that is typical of a freshly stored sake. It goes well with strong dishes.

Yamabuki color, firm cedar barrel aroma and rich flavor. The opposite of a fruity sake. This is what sake is all about. It was a wonderful sake that I never got tired of drinking.

@Hotel Emion Tokyo Pei Rice used is So-no-Mai, Chiba Prefecture's original sake rice. It seems to be a lineage with Omachi as its high grandfather. This is also a delicious sake that goes well with Japanese food. It is refreshing, and the sweetness comes on gradually. It is an all-around sake, not limited to Japanese food.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Yamadanishiki The aroma is like muscat, with a slight sweetness and a crisp finish. There is no bitterness, but I felt it was a little sharp right after opening the bottle. But as I drank more and more, it became more refined, or rather, the taste was developed. ❗️ It has a good balance and is a versatile sake that can be served with any flavor or situation. ‼️ As expected of a flagship sake, it was delicious. ❣️

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024 (2) Gindagawa, which I have had a cup of special honjozo or something before. Was Gintagawa sold in Niigata? I thought it was a classic type, but unlike the image on the label, the acidity was noticeable and it was a bit modern? It looks like it would go well with Western food 🍴.

Honjozo 🍶 JR East Kyun ♥ Pass one-day trip to Niigata 🚃. First, we took the Shinkansen to Niigata. Go to Aomi shopping center in Honmachi 🚌. Much darker. The sake 😅. Match with Cod Milt Tempura 👍. It is too strong by itself, but it becomes delicious when combined with snacks. Sashi-zuri A ¥1600 (tuna, flatfish, nodoguro, sea bream, yellowtail, shrimp, bai clam, bigeye tuna, sea bass) is also worth it 😋. Suzuki Fresh Fish Restaurant @ Niigata Honmachi 20240301

Sake Tasting Gacha at Sasaki Sake Brewery This is another sake limited to the brewery. It was sold in a refrigerator, but I'm not sure if it was fresh sake or not. Gorgeous and fruity. Dry but delicious. 4gou 5500 yen 😱. Most of the high-end sake was made with 1801 yeast.

Salmon Monogatari in Kansai(´・ω・`) Red is the color of the bottle. It has a moderate ripeness, and the more you chew it, the deeper the flavor becomes. The more you bite into it, the deeper the flavor becomes. It makes you want to have something to eat. It is the type of sake you want to drink slowly, so it may not be suitable for events.

Purchased at Yokohama Takashimaya Rice used is Kame-no-o type Koshihikari produced in Kasama City The alcohol is a little strong, but the taste is smooth and not like an unfiltered draft. It has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness and is refreshingly clean❣️. There aren't many unfiltered sake that are good all-around food sake, but this one seems to go well with all kinds of food❣️.

Japanese>English

Well, it has a solid rice feeling and no acidity ☺️. I think it's a little light in character, but But I can't help but drink more😋. @Kasama Masuya

At first, I had the impression that it was a little habitual and I didn't like it. After the second day, I got used to it, or maybe the taste rounded out, and I could drink it easily. It is dry and sharp.

Although it's not stated on the label, the rice polishing ratio is 65%, the sake level is -13, and the rice is Hatsushimo. It is very sour. It is very sour, and has a strong personality even among sake made with white koji. This sourness is like Niwa-shu or Bodai-gan. I heard that there was a limited edition of this sake, but I'm curious.

Japanese>English

I drank it hot. I think dry sake tastes best when heated.

The 22nd sake brewery in Gifu Prefecture. The main brand of Chiyogiku K.K. located in Hashima City. Purchased at a supercenter in Seki City. The aroma is a weak ginjo aroma. It is a light and dry type with little acidity. It is easy to drink with a clean aftertaste.
