The crisp, melon-scented sweetness is balanced by a dry, coarse dryness.

Japanese>English

As the name suggests, it is sweet. Sake by itself is too sweet. So, when I tried it with soda, which the brewer also recommends, I could feel the acidity behind the moderate sweetness, and it became a completely different drink. This is a new kind of sake highball that can be drunk with gusto. I don't want to have a medical checkup tomorrow.

Tonight, I'm back at work after GW, but naturally I'm not very excited 🥴. This one is brewed with Dewa Sanzu and Kyokai No. 6 yeast. The aroma is mild without being showy. It is a versatile sake with a soft sweetness and acidity of cucumber and herbs and a clean aftertaste that is also very sake-like 😊. It is as delicious as the rumors say 😋😋😋😋😋.

Tonight, here is a very popular project sake from Yamagata 💁. La Jomon Shoumon Koji Triple Masamune Nama Sake 2023BY✨. I think it is safe to say that this is the second most popular sake after Jyushidai. I think it is. Well, it's hard to buy and sells out quickly 😫 Now, this is the first Koji Sanbai Masozo-shu Nama-shu in my house. As you know, the specs are as perverted as you can imagine 🤣 it is made with Dewanosato x 66% koji ratio x 66% milled rice ratio x Kyokai No.6 yeast 🤣. The taste is very pleasant with the strong acidity of triple the koji, and it is easy to drink. It is not white koji, but it reminds me of a certain cat sake 😺.

Japanese>English

Tonight, I opened a bottle of this one to accompany my dinner of kochi and kampachi sashimi and squid cod roe 💁. La Jomon Six Nama Sake 2023BY✨ We happened to have a lot of Six Nama Sake on hand, so we'll have a quick bottle. When I poured a glass of chilled sake, it had the usual mild uri aroma, a beautiful acidity, a little sweetness and citrusy flavor like Pocari, and the second half was a mix of astringent, bitter, and spicy flavors. It can be served alone or as a mealtime drink. I'm going to try the "Murasame" that some of the connoisseurs in the area are trying later 🙌

Yesterday the double-flowered cherry trees in a nearby park were in full bloom 🌸Open this bottle 🍶It has a slightly sweet aroma, a slightly dry, full flavor, and a moderate lingering aftertaste with good sharpness.

Japanese>English

I purchased this sake at the Goryonokura store in Hakodate, which I visited last week on a trip to Hokkaido. This sake is from Goryonokura, a sake brewery in Hakodate of the Kamikawa Taisetsu Brewery. I drank it in a sake cup that I bought as a souvenir at Kitaichi Glass in Otaru. The sake tasted delicious and was easy to drink. 1980 yen

Japanese>English

Specifications are the same as for the raw sake. It is a modern, refreshing Junmai sake that you will never get tired of drinking! I think it's also cosmetically pleasing: ❣️

I had never seen this brand before, so I couldn't resist buying it. This is a sake brewery in Shunan City, Yamaguchi. There are about 1,400 sake breweries in Japan, so it's no wonder that there are breweries and brands that I don't know (there are more than 1,000 here). Even if I were to drink one brand every day for the rest of my life, it would take me almost 30 years (^_^;) It's simply impossible. This was an aside. The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma is distinctive. I wonder what it is, is it the aroma of rice? In total, the aroma is fluffy, the taste is tangy, and the sweetness is warm. I think it's delicious.

Japanese>English

Surprised 👀️ by the spontaneous flying of the cork and the fruity taste of the 👀️. Easy to drink and delicious sake. Delicious 😋 hey.

It's a sweet and savory schwa 🍶. I think this is the second bottle on repeat here: ⁉️ It's fire-roasted, so it's great to take with you ✨. I opened a bottle of this excellent stuff at home 😆💦. It's Monday and I'm already tired fight❗️

A local sake from Futtsu, Chiba... A faint fruity aroma... A sweet bitterness with a strong bitterness typical of local sake! The flavor of the rice soaks in... The bitterness is followed by a sharpness! It's a good sake to drink while eating.... It's similar to Kotobuki Mangame from Chiba. It's a drink to be enjoyed in small quantities. Delicious.

Japanese>English

Purchased at the Chiba Prefecture Antenna Shop, which was open for a limited time at Hankyu Umeda Station. I had drunk Seisen from the same brewery in the past and was not fond of hiyaoroshi, but I was impressed with it. The first aroma was already gorgeous. It is sweet and a little tangy on the palate. The second half is a little spicy. It was more delicious than I had imagined. Overall, I'd say it's fruity and dry.

Japanese>English

The sweet mouthfeel is followed by a hot alcoholic sensation with rice flavor and spiciness in the back.

For today's sake, I chose a Junmai Daiginjo from Kuchiman 😀. We compared the tasting sakes, one brought to room temperature for tasting and one kept chilled, and this one for tasting brought to room temperature might taste better than the chilled one 🤣. The chilled one is just too beautiful to swallow without anything stuck to it😅. The room temperature one spread the sweet and delicious flavor and filled my mouth with deliciousness😇

Its fresh aroma and refreshing sharpness make it a delicious and summery sake. Accompanied by homemade croquettes

Japanese>English

The last of the day. Medium-bodied, it gently conveys umami. As a food sake.

Japanese>English

This is a sake that the young brewer of Kanbokuto Shuzo challenged to make Junmai Ginjo sake with Gin no Sato and No.7 yeast. It is said to be a limited edition. It has a fruity aroma, a moderate acidity, and a freshness and sweetness that is easy to drink. I often visit the Kanbokuto Sake Brewery and have this sake as my personal favorite sake, but compared to the other sake on sale, the taste is so different that you would think it is from a different brewery.

Izakaya near the grapevine #2 Drink cold sake Sweet aroma Rice flavor with sweetness on the palate. The dryness appears immediately after the saké, but it quickly intensifies. The dryness is noticeable when the sake is on its own. When paired with salty snacks such as kanpachi vinegared miso or chicken sashimi, the dryness is reduced considerably and the sweetness increases. Good as an in-between-dinner drink

Japanese>English

16%, 55% polished rice ratio, Kura-no-Hana, 1650 yen per quart, Kinryuzo from Ichinokura. It has a clean, low-key taste with a mildly mellow rice flavor. I heard that George Tokoro praised this sake on a darts trip at the end of last year, and it lived up to his praise ✨.

Tonight, we continue our series of firsts with this one, named after the female toji known for her work at Tomikunaga. This sake is brewed with Hachitanishiki and Yamadanishiki. The freshness is alive and well, and the melon aroma (typical of Yamada Nishiki) is faintly felt at first, but then the sharp dryness and acidity overflow into the pineapple aroma (So_1F34D) without the sweetness of Hachitan Nishiki and continue until the finish. It's very refreshing and easy to drink 😋.

Japanese>English

The freshness of the direct-drafted, unpasteurized sake and the gorgeous aroma and flavor of Yamada-Nishiki.

Japanese>English

It's a label buy! LOL! It had a nice aroma, just the right amount of acidity, and was easy to drink. A few days after opening the bottle, it was mellower and I personally prefer it to just after opening the bottle! I would buy it again if I come across it again!

Kaze no Bon Yamahai Honjozo Autumn Agari Fukutsuru Sake Brewery in Yatsuo. After this, the image is still there, but I have no memory of the taste 💦. Here are the comments from the sake shop While it has a light, dry tone, it has a richness and umami that can be felt well. It is a sake with a good balance of five tastes.
