Unfiltered raw sake & Asahi rice for 2,530 yen including tax is a super deal ‼️ It is not so fresh, but has a refreshing mouthfeel with a slight sense of maturity. The rich umami comes in smoothly, and the finish is crisp and tight. It has a good balance of bitterness, bitterness, and sweetness, and is the type of sake that one does not get tired of drinking as an unfiltered, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. It is a good sake to drink with food or as an evening drink. ❗️ It was delicious. ❣️

It tastes a little bit like aged, but it has all the sweetness, flavor, bitterness, and spiciness you would expect. It tastes like tea. It tastes like apple tea. It is a slightly different type of flavor. It tastes juicy, sweet and spicy. Some people may find it spicy, but it's a subtle taste.

Japanese>English

Sake purchased on the way home from a BBQ at Wakata's house It is not very sweet, or rather slightly spicy, but has a strong umami flavor. It is bursting with Omachi character. The latter half and the aftertaste are very fruity. It was made in April, but I wonder if it has been in the warehouse. It seems to have matured a little 🤔. Well, I don't mind it because I think Wasshin has a positive effect on the quality of sake even if it has an aged feel. I think it might be the same as the sake I bought about 3 years ago with the plague banished label, but it didn't have the tea-like taste that I felt in the sake I drank before 🤔. I was thinking tea-like = Wasshin. The Junmai Daiginjo I drank at the Sakai Off-line Meeting in June also didn't have the tea-like taste, so maybe it depends on the BY.

☀️ It has a light sweetness and a passing acidity 😚. The ginjo aroma passes through the nose. At the end, the flavor disappears and the aroma remains, and it's whiffy. ☺️

Oh, this is an easy-drinking type. Omachi. I couldn't read it, so I asked for something that looks like a deer squealing, but it's Rokumei from Rokumeikan.

This sake is brewed by Umeshiki Yamakawa, a subsidiary of the major sake maker Hakutsuru Shuzo. In recent years, Hakutsuru Shuzo has purchased a number of breweries from across Japan. The Aomori-based brewer Momokawa, which uses Hakutsuru Nishiki, is also a subsidiary company of Hakutsuru Shuzo. Not much of an aroma, slight whiff of alcohol. Dry, watery and clean on the palate, with little umami and a slight alu taste. After drinking it, it has a light throat feeling with a faint sweetness. It is a standard shokuchu sake. For the snacks, we had stewed kalbi and root vegetables, mussel pickled in soy sauce, chili bonito sakutome, and baby star ramen with the flavor of kondashi. It goes best with sakabuto, which enhances its sweetness.

Japanese>English

Dry! And light in taste but rich in flavor. Serve with sashimi.

Next was a sake I'd never seen before, so here it is. As soon as you take a sip, a very unique habit spreads! What is this? What a shocking taste! Looking at the label carefully, I found a hint of plum flavor? If it's the astringent bitter taste of plum, I'm convinced: 🙂‍↕️ I don't think I'll ever drink it again😅.

@sakebar Fukuzo Fire-brewed sake using Fukuoka Prefecture's original yeast called F44. Slightly sweet aroma of 🍍 on the nose. The palate is slightly sweet with a hint of 🍍. The aroma is as if it was made with hana-yosuyu in mind. However, the aroma is weak because it is fire-aged. The sweetness is also weak due to the weak aroma. I am a little curious to see how it would be like if it were a fresh sake. It was delicious ✨🍍.

Rice used is something from Iwate Prefecture and germinated brown rice from Shiwa-machi glutinous rice Classified under the Sake Tax Law as "Other Brewed Sake It is a so-called craft saké, but it is no different from ordinary sake. The fruity sweetness spreads quickly, and the umami is also conveyed clearly. The citrusy bitterness tightens up the whole experience. The lingering aftertaste seems to be slowly fading away. It is not flashy, but it is good for a leisurely sipping. However, 3,000 yen for a four-pack is a bit expensive!

Japanese>English

Smells like syrup taste of lactic acidity grape acidity white wine type Frankly, it tastes like the lactic acid in the germinated brown rice is out of control. Tastes like a stopper if you inevitably drink a lot of it. (It was a corner shot, so it might have been oxidized)

Japanese>English

I've been curious about Re:vive Kuga from Heiroku Brewery, but I've never had it before. I drank "layer" but this is my first time to try "Re:vive". I wanted to make sake, but I don't have a sake license, so I mixed germinated brown rice with sake and made it as a craft sake. (Brown rice is considered rice and is sake, germinated brown rice is craft sake, I didn't know that 🧐) Gentle sweetness, moderate acidity. Fresh and delicious 😋. Not schwashy, but fresh? Beautiful and tasty, but maybe it's my imagination, a bit subtly different from so called sake? (Can't describe it 🤣) Well, it's good because it tastes good 😆. It's the kind of thing that goes down smoothly.

Nagurayama Shuzo's Aizu Shikon is brewed in Aizu Wakamatsu City. Although there is a tangy alcoholic stimulation when the sake is first served cold, it has a good balance of sweet, spicy, and bitter tastes, and as the temperature rises, the sweet and umami tastes come out later on. This is a refreshing, yet rich and powerful sake! This is a new brand that was just born 2 years ago, so we will continue to follow it 😋.

Japanese>English

A challenge themed drink, apparently😊. I don't know about the details but it's neat😄. I don't know the details, but it's refreshing 😋

Aizu Shikon Junmai Ginjo White Koji Brewing I bought a bottle of Aizu Shikon as a souvenir from my parents' home in Aizuwakamatsu. It is bitter and sharp, with a hint of gas, sweetness, and apple flavor. I feel the assertion of bitter rather than sweet and sour from white malted rice. For those who don't like sweet sake 👍

Hankyu Oasis in the basement of Hankyu Sannomiya Station has a full lineup of Japanese sake, including draft sake, 300ml and cup sake. Surprisingly, it is easy to drink. It has a bitterness at the end, with a hint of gruffness. It's easy to drink and tastes better than most of the sake in cups with alcohol.

Kochi sake swamp. I was getting quite drunk, but this is Okada Izura, also known as Manslayer Izura! This is another light, dry sake with a strong rice flavor. This sake seems to be limited to the Kochi Liquors Club, but it was recommended by the proprietress! The saltiness of Shimanto River's Gori seems to be an endless loop.

Story during training in Kyushu To Mojiko with my friends & Shimonoseki Karato Market in Yamaguchi Prefecture❗ Fukuoka and Yamaguchi are both a treasure trove of sake 💎There is a lot of sake you haven't seen yet😆Mojiko has a wonderful nostalgic atmosphere✨I had the famous grilled curry 🍛and then went to Yamaguchi prefecture for the first time! I didn't realize how close the Kanmon Strait is 😲I had a one-cup of Yamatohka for lunch 🍶I love being drunk from noon on 😳.

Private brand of Fujimura Sake Brewery in Hofu City, Yamaguchi Prefecture The sake is named after a local poet and the owner of the brewery. We bought a 300ml bottle to try, as it is a traditional brand that has been commissioned to be brewed continuously for 26 years. The ginjo aroma is mild, and you don't even notice it on the palate. But I did not expect to find such a beautiful sake in Yamaguchi. Toyo Bijin, Tenbi, and other gorgeous brands are popular, This sake is a perfect representative of Yamaguchi as a food sake.
