Rice used: Sasanishiki, Dewa Kirari, and Miyamanishiki grown in Yamagata Prefecture. I found this in a grab bag at a liquor store in my neighborhood, which has become a regular feature for me. It's not a great deal in terms of price, but I look forward to it because it contains brands that I don't usually buy. This one has the sourness that is typical of a traditional sake brewery, but when you drink it lightly, it is refreshing, and as you continue to drink it, the sweetness comes slowly. As the day goes by, the sweetness will increase even more. The sharpness is not that great, but it is not overpowering either, making it a good all-around sake. The price is less than 1,000 yen without tax, but I️ think it's quite competent.

Super dry but full of umami! It goes down your throat nicely! Cool! Cool! Cool! The side dish is Steamed Abalone with Butter Shoyu Extra large conger eel 🐟. Bonus reward rice 😑.

Peach aroma before drinking, peach and strawberry-like sweetness on the palate with a hint of bitterness from the sake. I like it very much.

Koshihikari is used. A little sweetness from the hit. The aftertaste is smooth.

I've been sober for a few days, but I've lifted the ban. Is it the limited sake prepared for the Niigata Sake Festival? The usual brand is called "Tenjinbayashi". It has a juicy and rich sweet taste. It has a sweet taste that is not like Niigata sake. It is not fruity and the aroma is a bit quirky. It may be different for each taste. It is sweet, but it has a chunky sweetness...

Second souvenir from KazKaz. It is a brand name planned and sold by 7 sake stores in Aomori. Rice used is 100% Hanasoui. The top-tasting aroma is a calm ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is slightly sweet with a strong umami flavor. The aftertaste is reminiscent of classical sake, and is quickly cut by a refreshing acidity and bitterness. It is an orthodox dry sake, but highly satisfying. Thank you for the treat!

Second bottle I brought to the Lal family New Year's party last night 🍶. Tastes like sake, yet very easy to drink✨ Sasuga Hanasou! It's fruity ✨🍶💠. It's still oishy ❕. I enjoyed it very much.

Slightly cloudy. Smoky aroma like smoked fish, but round and quite sweet in the mouth. It would be great if it wasn't smoky...

It was hard to ask them to let me take a picture because they looked so busy, so no picture. The aroma is classic Japanese sake. When you drink it, it is quite refreshing and slightly sweet. The color is dark and I wonder if it has aged a bit. I was allowed to take a picture of it as the restaurant was getting settled, so I switched it out.

This is my first time in Kumi no Ura. I've only seen it at Isetan Kyoto. It has a fruity aroma, light and refreshingly sweet. It seems to be popular among women. It is different from the impression on the label.

Japanese>English

I drank Kumi no Ura a long time ago, but it made little impression on me. I tried to remember it well this time, but my memory is not so good in this area😅. I think it was dry and refreshing, made with Koshihikari rice.

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023 It is a dry sake with a very thick core flavor and a lot of graininess! If you like strong dry sake, this is the one for you! I was traumatized because I was surrounded by jellyfish when I jumped into Kumihama from the wharf a long time ago. Thank you very much!

Downhill Sake Story Event 3) From the Itami Laematsu Sake Brewery, established in 1688, we drank "Laematsu" Itamigo Special Honjozo, a highly prestigious sake for the Shogun. It has the flavor of honjozo and a smooth throat. It is also good as heated sake. A joint sake brewing song was performed. The song was sung in slightly different tunes at each brewery. It was a nice touch. The symbol of Kobe, the Port Tower🗼, is closed for renovation work.

Japanese>English

When I poured it into a sake cup, I was surprised by its banana-like aroma! When I drank it, I was surprised again by its melon-like flavor! And the taste is still dry! I found an interesting sake.

Purchased when I went to Itami after New Year's. It went well with my meal.

I visited a restaurant with a nice terrace 😁. I'm having steamed oysters 🦪🦪 and this is what I'm having 😆. I can feel the honey, but the spiciness spreads afterwards. It's a very strange taste. But it's delicious. The steamed oysters are big and great 🎉🎉.

Yahiko Sake Brewery in Yahiko Village, Niigata Prefecture. The main brand was "Echino Hakusetsu," but it appears that "Yahiko" will be the main brand from now on. This Junmai Ginjo is also made from Yamadanishiki produced in Yahiko Village, and is a good sake, not fruity, but calm and soft. Yahiko Village is where my mother is from, and I spent a lot of time there as a child when I was sent to my mother's home, so it is like a second home to me. Yahiko Shrine, the first shrine in Echigo, is located there.

Japanese>English

Yahiko's regular sake, Aozae, by Yahiko Shuzo Sake rice is Koshibuki produced in Yahiko village. Aozae has a refreshing, watery quality. Aozae is a perfect evening sake without any peculiarities. Yahiko Shrine is the largest shrine in Echigo Province. My mother is from Yahiko Village and I used to stay at her parents' house in Yahiko Village when I was a child, so Yahiko is like my second home.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Koshibuki produced in Yahiko The long-awaited "Yahiko" brand I was surprised to learn that there is a store in my hometown that carries this brand. I heard that the brewery has been reorganized and the taste has become even better. But still, this is out of the ordinary! Overall, the flavor is calm. It has a fruity flavor with a clean and crisp finish. The umami can be felt with a touch of savoriness, which is a balance I like! It is high level. ‼️

Rice used is unknown The whooper swan print is beautiful. Most sake with the name "Josen" has the taste of "the best sake," but this sake is well-balanced and has a beautiful mouthfeel. The umami can be felt gradually, and it is not sticky, so you can enjoy it easily. It is a good sake. ❗️ The 92nd cup of sake

Japanese>English

A gift from Sawanoizumi The Jun Dai I drank before was a Miyagi sake, beautifully light and dry, and I felt (selfishly) the earnestness of the toji (master brewer). I had an image of a modest, but firm, light, dry Kura. And then there is this special pure Sawanoizumi. It does not have much of a topping aroma, but the mouthfeel is surprisingly sweet and umami! It is sweet to the level of the Hitakami, and the robust umami is also very tasty! It has a light acidity and bitterness, followed by a refreshing sharpness. It's good! This is good! The price is relatively cheap, about 1300 yen for a four-pack, but it is convincing enough! Ishikoshi Brewery. I underestimated you. Sorry about that. Sake is so interesting because there are new discoveries even at the foot of the table like this! Thank you very much!

Honjozo 🍶 fresh stored sake✨ A good, albeit alsodense, taste. Dry aftertaste. Slightly bitter. Mild when paired with salmon. ☺️ Sweetness when paired with sea bream. It's delicious. Spicy when served with chawanmushi (steamed egg custard). Swordfish stew is the best match👍I enjoyed changing the taste to match the meal 😆. Guest House Shimodoso @ Minamisanriku 20230827
