I received a drinking set from a colleague. When I think of Iwate, Akabu is the first that comes to mind, But there are more than 20 sake breweries in Iwate alone. It was nice to have a variety of sake, not just the popular ones.

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka_70 Iwate Prefecture booth ⑤. Fukurai Shuzo is located in Kuji City. There is also a Raifuku Sake Brewery in Ibaraki Prefecture, so it looks like a mix-up. ◉Fukurai Special Junmai Fukurai is made from Ginotome sake rice. It has a soft mouthfeel, but the taste is rich and dark with a sweet umami flavor that is quite to my liking. The brewery is located in Kuji City, famous for being the location for NHK's morning TV series "Amachan".

I got "Uonuma de sakou" as a souvenir....sold only in Minamiuonuma, the concept is good ⭕️...I couldn't find a good marriage...but I'm sipping it with yellowtail sashimi and okonomiyaki...Niigata sake 🍶 traditional light dry taste.... ...I've had it a few times...it's a good ⭕️ as a food sake 🍶! It's really good......and I realized once again that Niigata sake is very popular.......

Japanese>English

Nice to meet you too, Mr. Uonuma. The first aroma is slightly sweet. When you put it in your mouth, it is a little more modern and dry. It has a soft umami flavor that quickly fades away. This is quite a tasty dry 🍶✨. I think my dad would like it.

Japanese>English

Yesterday in Uonuma. This sake was born from the desire to let people feel the richness and splendor of Uonuma, the hometown of Hakkai Brewery, according to the company.

I've been wanting to try this drink for a while ✨. Here, Nagano sake is rarely seen in liquor stores or supermarkets, but I found this at a nearby supermarket 👀 some kind of fair ❔. I love these classic and classy labels ♡. The taste is just like a classic sake 🍶. I didn't really feel the Nagano character, but it's an all-rounder that accepts a variety of snacks👍.

Dry Junmai. Slightly sweet aroma. Dry taste. It leaves a lingering aftertaste.

new engi Muscat aroma. Slightly effervescent. Not too sweet, juicy and refreshing. Slightly bitter. Delicious and quite beautiful. (7) means the rice polishing ratio is in the 70% range, and there are also (6) and (5). Purchase at the sake brewery. Near Shibu Onsen (hot spring). When I visited 2 years ago, there was not much sake available, but now that a new brand has been introduced, there is a good selection.

A little sweeter than Yamama, a famous sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery. It is a little sweeter than Yamama, a well-known sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery, but it shines brightly when paired with food. It is a sake with a strong and powerful flavor. A salad of fresh onions and tuna is a good snack.

Last of the day. Aged for one year. The mouthfeel, umami and sweetness become mellow. The umami is mellow from the middle to the end of the bottle.

Sake meter value +8. Very robust and dry, but The ginjo aroma makes it elegant and cohesive. It can be enjoyed on its own or It is also perfect as an in-between-dinner drink.

Japanese>English

The first sip is unexpected. The taste is clean and refreshing. But when you take your time to taste it, you will realize that it is the Etsukaijin's strong and complex flavor that sells it. Etsukaijin is known for its powerful and complex flavors. You can taste the robust umami.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Etsukaijin. As the label clearly states. Sake degree +10 degrees, alcohol level is around 18 degrees. It has a thick and rich taste. It is well-balanced with a touch of sharpness. It is a brand that I would like to follow for a while. In order to conquer the whole country This is one of the bottles that I chose while hesitating in Kagawa prefecture which was empty. If I hadn't been working at Sake no Wa I'm sure I would never have drunk it. I really appreciate it.

Rice used is unknown The whooper swan print is beautiful. Most sake with the name "Josen" has the taste of "the best sake," but this sake is well-balanced and has a beautiful mouthfeel. The umami can be felt gradually, and it is not sticky, so you can enjoy it easily. It is a good sake. ❗️ The 92nd cup of sake

Japanese>English

A gift from Sawanoizumi The Jun Dai I drank before was a Miyagi sake, beautifully light and dry, and I felt (selfishly) the earnestness of the toji (master brewer). I had an image of a modest, but firm, light, dry Kura. And then there is this special pure Sawanoizumi. It does not have much of a topping aroma, but the mouthfeel is surprisingly sweet and umami! It is sweet to the level of the Hitakami, and the robust umami is also very tasty! It has a light acidity and bitterness, followed by a refreshing sharpness. It's good! This is good! The price is relatively cheap, about 1300 yen for a four-pack, but it is convincing enough! Ishikoshi Brewery. I underestimated you. Sorry about that. Sake is so interesting because there are new discoveries even at the foot of the table like this! Thank you very much!

Honjozo 🍶 fresh stored sake✨ A good, albeit alsodense, taste. Dry aftertaste. Slightly bitter. Mild when paired with salmon. ☺️ Sweetness when paired with sea bream. It's delicious. Spicy when served with chawanmushi (steamed egg custard). Swordfish stew is the best match👍I enjoyed changing the taste to match the meal 😆. Guest House Shimodoso @ Minamisanriku 20230827

(*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Nagano business trip No.6 I bought this Reijin at a local supermarket 😀. The aroma is subtle and mild😊The taste is slightly sweet on the palate with a strong rice flavor 😚👍This is a delicious sake that can be enjoyed on its own 🥳.

Japanese>English

First time drinking out in a while We started with Reijin 😆. It's called "Reijin Dry Goku" and it's as light and dry as you'd expect 🤗. As a lover of sweet and savory, I don't usually drink it, but it was perfect with the grilled meat I paired it with 🥰.

Japanese>English

At the tasting. I had been curious about Reijin for a while, so I tasted it with the intention of buying it, but I couldn't find anything that stuck out to me so I didn't buy it. It was fresh and fruity, but it tasted like a common taste.... I would like to try it if there are other specs. The brewer was also very reluctant.

From a junior 🎁. It's not enough to give it to a drinker. I heard that he consulted with the owner of the store about it. But it's hard to find 20 degrees 🤣. It was heated up as it should be 🍶 and was quite rich. The rice flavor is concentrated. It's a sake you want to drink well.

Japanese>English

We will eat while learning about the history of the tub sales. It has a good aroma. It has sweetness, umami, and overall strength, and goes down the throat well. It is a tasty sake with a punch.

Japanese>English

It is said to be an irregular sake. The toji-san overfilled it with 4-stage rice or something😅. The "Raku" on the label represents the over-filled rice, and the blue color represents the pale face of the toji-san. Gutsy, but quite sweet and sour. It is much sweeter than other Raku no sei I've had, but I also feel its character. The rice is from the terraced rice fields of Hida. I can't seem to name the rice, but I wonder if it is Hidahomare or some other rice that is only available in Gifu. I heard that if you mention the name of the rice, you will get complaints like Kamerei did in Hiroshima, but if you don't mention the name, it's OK.

It was given to me by someone who went on a trip. ice cracker even more delicious The label on the bottle is curious, but I'll take it as it is for now. The aroma is pleasant, but it is not flowery, and the flavor also gives a crisp impression. The alcohol content is a little strong. The overall flavor is neither good nor bad, but not very distinctive. However, it is quite spicy and strong as it goes down the throat. After two sips, I finally remembered the meaning of the label. I checked the alcohol content again and found it to be 19%. So that's what it is, a sake that is just right on the rocks. It is a sake for the rocks, which seems to be a rare thing to find. It is good on the rocks as well, though I think I am being led to believe that it is. It is good on the rocks. However, as I mentioned at the beginning, there are basically no outstanding characteristics, and the alcohol content has become just right, so it has finally become just an ordinary tasty, well-chilled sake. Well, maybe that's the best.
