The rice used is Hitogochiki from Nagano Prefecture. Refreshing and crisp aftertaste, just like a summer sake. The sweetness is moderate, but the umami is also present in its own way. It is a sake that needs to be cooled down to the perfect temperature.

The freshness of the raw materials mellows out the richness of the flavor...!

Today is my day off, so I took a walk around Sunpu Castle, Kunouzan Toshogu Shrine, and Nihon Taira! I've always wanted to visit Kunouzan and Nihondaira, but the view of the Pacific Ocean and Mt. Fuji from Nihondaira is fantastic👍. On the way home, I took a sip. When I opened the bottle, it had a melon-like aroma. The mouthfeel is refreshing, but the melon-like sweet and astringent taste comes through in a jiffy, giving it a gorgeous flavor. However, the assertion itself gradually settles down and changes to a spiciness, so it is not too heavy for a nama-zake and is easy to drink! Tomorrow is the second half of Shizuoka life. I'll do my best!

Next is Tamahagane. What a cool name! I'm attracted to names like that. Kamitachika has a robust sake feel. The mouthfeel It has a dense sweetness and umami, and a slow-moving sensation. The aftertaste is a bit of alcohol, and despite the heaviness of the initial attack, it finishes with a nice acidity and bitterness. I am not so good at Honjozo, but this was delicious! Thank you!

Part 3 of 3 (specials) for drinking comparison. This is already middle class. It is sharp and dry. It did not have as much ginjo as described in the menu, but it had depth. But somehow, I still didn't have enough to drink today.

Japanese>English

It has a mild taste. The aftertaste is refreshing.

This brand impressed me at the end of May this year. It was an unfiltered, raw, undiluted summer sake. This time, I will have a dry one. Ooooooooo! The aroma is vinegar-like. It smells like vinegar. When you drink it, the atmosphere reminds you of that excitement. The summer sake was thick, but this one is super light. It is light and fruity. It is delicious! Mr. Okada, the brewer, was at the store. I immediately asked him for his autograph! He was very shy and said, "This is the first time for me to write something like this. I am so happy! I would love to visit the warehouse. I have one more thing on my to-do list to look forward to! Thank you, President Okada!

Japanese>English

It will be a gift🙏. This is a special junmai from Morinori brewed by Okada Honke in Kakogawa, Hyogo Prefecture. It was recommended to me by someone who knows a lot about Japanese sake. It is fresh and has a refreshing taste with a richness that is typical of Gohyakumangoku and can be enjoyed while savoring the sake. ☺️

Today was the first time I had Urasato, which I learned about from your post on Sake-no-wa 😀. The aroma is mild and gentle ginjo 😊The aroma on the palate is like melon🍈🥰The beautiful sweetness lasts until the end 😋The slight bitterness in the aftertaste pulls the whole flavor together 😍 delicious💕. This is the first time I have had this sake and I found it to be very elegant 🥳I would like to try it again after a few days to see how it tastes 😚.

Japanese>English

Then, Urasato's Jungin ‼️ Last time I drank Jun-Dai and it was delicious, so I had high expectations 😋. The hyenas were using beer as a chaser, which seemed to slow them down, but this is where the true spirit of hyenas comes in 😱. I can't really tell the difference compared to the pure Dai 😅. Well, you can definitely gobble it up like water 😅

Japanese>English

Then we'll drink the well-reputed sake brew ‼️ We also tried heating it up👍 It seems to be a good match for cold to lukewarm 👍 I don't know if the hyenas taste good too, too fast pace 😱 well, they bought me sushi and stuff, so yeah 😆.

The fourth cup was "Asakayousei"! I was curious about this one, as I have only seen Shiga sake such as "Shichibonjari" and "Shoki Shoki". The aroma is apple-like. The mouthfeel is fresh, with a gaseous and hinted aroma that reminds me of a tank! The sweet and sour taste of green apple and the overflowing flavor is addictive ✨.

#Otsuka# w/o/a/ta/stone/too/akutsu This is the last round of the meal. We will have zosui (rice porridge) with the best soup stock. At the request of my companion, we had another glass of sake. It is a mellow and gentle sake. It is like taking a breather. It was a great end to the fiscal year ✨. It was a drink that will give me new energy for the next week 🎊🎊.

Fourth round of drinks with Go-ni-Go-san. Amanurin Tokubetsu Junmai Sake Limited Bottle Enclosure This is also my first time to drink Mie sake! I chose only sake from Tokai region😅. This seems to be a regular sake of Amanurin! After bottling, the sake is matured slowly in the brewery. Mellow and full-flavored with a lot of umami!

Japanese>English

The rice used is Comet from Hokkaido. You can't ignore the sake made with Hokkaido rice, can you? It has a clear and refreshing taste typical of Comet. It has a gentle acidity and a good sharpness, so you can drink it easily. It is well-balanced with a good taste of rice. I️ think it's a versatile sake that can be used in any situation. I have drunk Tenyurin many times, but I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

Sogapale was opened as a gift......slight aroma? The aroma is a little bit sweet and delicious, just because it's a pure rice sake.... I'm having a sip of it with my youngest son with a Japanese eel and whale yukke (yukke is a Japanese-style meat dish) as a side dish.

Sweet smell with a touch of creaminess. Slightly effervescent, fluffy sweetness, mildly full mouthfeel as if the temperature is low. Pear, diluted lemon acidity, grapey feel, lychee whiteness, transitioning from pungent acidity to bitter acidity. Slowly becoming tasty and gradually juicy. The meal goes on. The lid of the Purple Space does not stick x The lid of the Imi does stick ◯.

At home. This is the third Soga as early as this year. I️ thought I'd let it sit for a bit, but then I️ opened it to drink. White wine on the nose, smooth on the palate, sweet and astringent grapey. Bitter taste at the end. Sake? Wine? Which one? I always land on the last one, "I don't care which one it is, as long as it tastes good. I'm getting energy in the middle of the week ❗️.

Tokaido Sake Brewery Tour in Spring (3) The last one is Masterpiecea by Laughing Four Seasons. Masterpiece is a sake with the theme of technical study and a retrospective and return to classic ginjo, I tasted it at last year's sake brewery tour and enjoyed it so much that I left without buying it, which I regretted a lot 💧. This year, I was determined to bring it back! This year, I decided to bring it back! Masterpiece has A (Yamadanishiki) and Un (Watabune), and I decided to bring back A this time. I decided to bring A back this time. The color is slightly greenish. The nose has aromas of white peach, pear, melon, muscat-like fruit, lily-like white flowers, bay leaves, and white dumplings. The moment you take a sip, you will be surprised by the smooth, flowing, luscious taste. The fruity, floral aroma has a clear, gentle, full-bodied sweet flavor, and the sweetness is supported by an elongated acidity. The taste is a slow, lingering sweetness, with a greenish bitterness that mingles in the latter half of the taste. The complex sweetness and acidity flow together gracefully and cohesively, just like the name Masterpiece 💕💕. I am glad to have had a chance to taste it again! I'll have to go back next year for the Tokaido sake brewery tour in spring! I'll have to go again next year for the Tokaido Sake Brewery Tour in spring!

Comparison of "A-Un" series (2) A-Un" means the end. Both "A-Un" and "A-Un" have a beautiful taste, A-Un has a beautiful taste, but A-Un has a fuller taste of rice. Sake rice is Hyogo Watafune No. 2, and the rice polishing ratio is 50%.
