It is super dry, and I thought dry sake would be too strong and I would not like it, but I was surprised at how easy it is to drink and how much I liked it, with a refreshing feeling in the mouth and no lingering aftertaste on the tongue that disappears forever!

At Kaki-numa-san. Choice by recommendation. It is another brand of Koganezawa which was damaged by the earthquake. The president's beloved daughter became a toji The president's beloved daughter became a toji (brewer) and the father and daughter are making sake together. It has a sweet aroma of lactic acid. The first sip was not so impressive. But on the 3rd and 4th day The sweetness and umami increase It is a delicious sake that asserts itself👍. The Senkou Yuumachi that we are drinking at the same time is also delicious, but but this one is not to be underestimated either❗️

Japanese>English

The fourth one today is here 💁♂️. This is also 100% Omachi, but it was easier to drink than Matsumidori with less sweetness 😋.

Japanese>English

At the usual BAR (4) This will be my first time at this brewery too✨ The master recommended this fruity sake as it is my favorite 😊. The top aroma is fruity and fruity: ☺️ The aroma is a beautiful apple-like ginjo aroma with a clean sweetness, low umami and acidity, and almost no gassiness. I searched online to review the taste and couldn't find this sake, is it a limited edition? I should have asked for more details from the master 😓.

<Chapter 6 Kaganoi in Niigata. This is my first time😊. I had never heard of Shiroto before. I felt a nostalgic, warm flavor 🎵. It's more than just a dry, light, umami taste, which is typical of Niigata! The aroma of rice with a strong umami flavor was wonderful👍✨.

Japanese>English

Purchased when Nemuchi and I stopped by Hankyu's Depa basement on the way back from traveling SAKE. I found the sake that Mr. Sakeran was drinking, so I bought it. I have bought a sake with the same label, but I think it tastes different, so maybe it was the Gohyakumangoku version? There is a trace of sweetness, but the basic taste is dry. It has a strong extract. It's not my favorite line of sake, but there is something about it that I can't dislike 🤔. This sake is not a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast, but I think it tastes similar to Daishichi that Mr. Sakeran praised so highly. On the second day, it tastes a little sweet like candy.

The 5th Sagajo Shoten Presents at the 5th Bishushu Raku Kushan Shokai 😃. First time to try Kaganoi ❗Black bottle with Kanji and horizontal characters ✨. The taste is light and dry, as is typical of Niigata sake! The freshness of the Ginjo Nama Sake is also pleasant 🎵.

From the jacket, I thought it would be a light, dry, smooth and elegant type 🤔. When I drank it, I found it to be medium dry with a solid richness and flavor... 😋 I felt like we suddenly became friends🎶. Sauteed peppers with salted kelp (salted kelp flavor), turban shells in a jar, goes well with a variety of Japanese food😻 It's also a great gift 👍✨.

Japanese>English

At the tasting. It's clean, clear and beautiful. Not bad, but I'll hold off. There was a tasting of the raw Izono, but they didn't have it in stock, so I didn't drink it. I'm interested in the raw version.

Japanese>English

I usually don't drink that much 🍷 and 🍶 a little vacation. I only drink Nouveau 🍷 at a small wine specialty shop owned by the owner, who has experience as the best sommelier in Japan every year. (I told him that I actually like Sake and he said that he only drinks Obuse Sogape and one other sake brewery for everyday drinking...I'm curious...wait a minute...he came from the back and brought me this! I'm sorry, I don't know this brewery...but they have hiyaoroshi and yamahai. So he shared his favorite hiyaoroshi with me! It's easy to drink, has a nice mouthfeel, and is dry with a nice flavor and sharpness. It's also delicious and reminds me of a white wine! The Nouveau chosen by the owner this year was expensive... but he said he had no choice because of the weak yen and the international situation.

After work, have a drink 🍶✨. Light and definitely the right 👍 for a mealtime drink!

Japanese>English

A single-bottle of ginjo fresh-stored sake from a brewery in Higashinada (Narumi). Very pleasant sake quality. It's the season of hydrangea👍.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Yamadanishiki from the Sato Plantation in Sosa City. It is said to be free of chemical fertilizers and synthetic agricultural chemicals. The sweetness is moderate. The acidity is citrusy with a crisp, bitter taste. Overall, it is a refreshing summer sake. It is well-balanced and can be drunk easily. The yeast seems to be different from last year's, and judging from the other reviews, it may be a different one. (It's also possible that my taste buds are wrong...) If that's the case, I look forward to it every year! This year's was my favorite type❣️.

Snow Komachi in Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture 50% polished Daiginjo Out of the image of popular Fukushima sake, A simple and very ordinary sake with a touch of spiciness.

Japanese>English

It happened to be a campaign. I compared the two, and I think the dry sake is a safe match for Japanese food. When I came to my senses, I found that I drank much less of this sake. Maybe it's because it's easy to enjoy with food and it's what I prefer.

Japanese>English

Snow Komachi🤗 I had never seen or heard of this sake before, but this is the first time I've had it 🤗. Lately, hiyaoroshi sake is coming out one after another 🍶. It was so hot that it melted today, but already autumn sake...😔. I guess it's the effect of global warming, but I feel uncomfortable with the sense of season....... LOL! But when I see autumn leaves patterned label 🍁, I buy it 😆. Junmai Daiginjo for 1,800 yen ⁉️ is very cosy 👍🏼. The taste is... beautifully dry ‼️ lol Not too much sweetness, not too much aroma, not too much acidity, not too much alcohol...that's too much! So it was beautifully dry 🍶🍶.

Takatsugawa" Junmai-shu from Fusozuru's brewery We ordered this sake from Kotobukiya in Atsugi in January 2023, and it was commented on Kotobukiya's website as "a hidden gem for home drinking". It has been stored at room temperature for 2 years and 9 months since it came to our house, and it has further changed color and has some ooze. At room temperature, it has a matured, savory, and peculiar taste (this peculiarity is also its charm). It is still not hot enough at lukewarm temperature, but when the temperature is raised to 50℃ or higher, it is nice and full-bodied, The caramel-like sweetness spreads and attracts the taste buds. It is a great everyday evening sake, and can be kept at room temperature after opening, and is also suitable for aging.

Japanese>English

Last of the day. The richness of the flavor per se is fresh and transitional.

Japanese>English

It tastes like typical sake. Here is a description. This sake is made with only 70% sake rice so that the original flavor of the rice can be enjoyed. It is a sake that can be enjoyed as an affordable everyday evening drink. In winter, we recommend heating it up and enjoying it with hot pot dishes.

Cup of sake at a friend's house 🍶. It was easy to drink ✨

Japanese>English

I bought it at the Kasumi Sosa store of the supermarket. To put it bluntly, it is a label purchase (laugh). Opened at room temperature, taste is so-called "umakuchi dry"? It seems to emphasize the sake-like quality more than the light dry sake. It is supposed to be junmai sake, but it seemed to have the atmosphere of a honjozo sake that contains brewing alcohol. Could it be related to the long-term aging on the label? I opened the package and put it in the refrigerator. I will try to see the difference from room temperature later.
