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👍.

On this day, we celebrated the promotion of our business partner's immediate past. Congratulations on becoming an executive at a young age! He loves sake, so we invited him to this restaurant. The first set of sake tasting was these three bottles. This was my first time to try this sake. It is mellow and delicious.

Today we are in Hitachinokuni, right above Makabe. Smell is a little light. The taste is a little cemedine, soft but I think it is a little bit weak in taste. I can't feel many attacks. thanks Liquor Shop Kinase (Mito)

@SAKE Street Rice used is Nihonbare There are still some good sake in Ibaraki that we don't know about yet. ❗️ It is mild on the palate, with an impressive soft sweetness. The umami has depth and strength. The bitterness in the aftertaste is also 👌. You can enjoy various expressions depending on the temperature. I'm sure I'll be a repeat customer. ❣️

I bought this makami because the nigori I drank before was so good. According to the liquor store, it is a refreshing type. The aroma is citrus, melon. Maybe a little bit of makki too. When you include it, it is ooey-gooey and chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili. The sweetness comes at first, but it turns to sourness and spreads out, and then it is tightened up with a bit of bitterness. This is the kind that goes well with a strong entrée! As the day goes by, it seems to become more classic. The name is Casual Modern, but it may not be that modern at the time of opening the bottle. The impression is that it is a clear classic with sweetness, umami, and acidity of rice. It is very drinkable and can be easily paired with meals, but I think I liked the nigori I drank before better!

I bought this at Mori Sake Brewery on my last trip to Hirado! The president of the company was in charge of the cash register that day😆. He politely introduced us and told us that it tastes best chilled in a wine glass! Sweet and sour from the aroma Tastes like plum wine Slightly sticky texture A little sweet but not too sweet Slightly rice bran-like, but you can sense the grains and nuts that only low-polished rice can provide But still sweet 😃. Sweet and delicious as a dessert wine I had it with Nagasaki Fukusado sponge cake a few days ago Champagne split today 🤣. Half and half Pour in a 1:1 ratio Marriage of Philando and Champagne 😉. Makes it less sweet. Maybe just the right amount of sweet 🤔.

I've always been curious about this drink. I've always been curious about it. 100% Kasuga terraced rice Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol 9%. A little white grains of lees are dancing around. Fruity and juicy sweetness like orange 🍊 or melon 🍈. Slight bitterness at the end. This is great for dessert! Sweet mouthfeel like sake, like wine. Low alcohol & 500ml of very tasty sake, it goes very fast 😊.

Philando 🇫🇮 I was expecting it to be very sweet, I was expecting it to be very sweet, but it's pretty soggy and makes the drink go further 🤣. I think it's better to drink it chilled and in a smaller vessel to fully enjoy the fizziness 😋. I have the impression that you can fully enjoy the fizziness 😋. Foam x low alcohol = surprisingly refreshing drink 🫧.

The rice is Fukunokou. This is also not found in Kansai, so I bought it. The aroma is slightly pineapple. It is fruity but a little dry and refreshing. Slight sweetness. I was told it was dry, but I didn't feel it was that dry. It's light, but it may not be enough for some people.

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.

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

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: ❣️

The fourth one is Nechi-Osan. This is my first time to visit this brewery. I always thought it was "KONCHI". Sorry locals! The taste of rice is well expressed, but the overall taste is clean and dry. The aftertaste is a bit peculiar, but it is good in its own way. Thank you!

OSAKA SAKE&FOOD EXPO 2024⑳ Lastly, we went to the Komatsuya booth again. Nechi from Nechiozan, which is not seen very often. There were many different rice varieties, but we chose the Koshitanrei 1st class rice 2020. Nechi is only available at authorized dealers. It was easy to drink with a beautiful taste and a hint of sweetness. The review of this event was a bit of a mess, so please refer to Nechi's post later on 🤣.

☆☆☆☆☆ The second bottle of local sake is Nechiozan. This one is drier than Yukitsuru. But it does not interfere with the meal, yet it is still a strong sake. I think it is good.
