Umami Dry Acidity Sweetness Firm Neat Crisp Fruity

Drinking with my wife on our wedding anniversary last week, when we visited Tsushima Tsuru at the Metropolitan Morioka New Wing (laughs). Next up was a Hiyoroshi (Hiyori) Junmai Harazake by Drunken Sen. It's a refreshingly dry sake. The description says to enjoy the mellow flavor, but that's just my personal opinion... (^_^;) Good with sashimi! It was delicious! (^○^)

Japanese>English

I tried three types of draft sake at a tasting and sale of Drunken Sen in Hankyu. I couldn't find a picture of the first one I drank, the Honjozo Nama, even though I searched for it. I couldn't find a picture of the first one I drank, but I guess it was because it wasn't winter time and there was no snow. I was told that this was a matured nama sake. It was delicious, with a beautiful, round taste. I had a hard time deciding which one to buy, but the last one I tasted was a fruity special junmai, so I went for that one.

Japanese>English

Tasted and purchased at Umeda Hankyu. Sake from the Drunken Sake Brewery. It seems to be a terroir-like sake. It is delicious with a little bit of gasiness and both fruity and rice flavor. Once the gas disappears, the fruity taste disappears and the umami flavor takes center stage. I don't feel much spiciness. I wasn't sure whether to register it as Tagata, but the cap was Drunken Sen, so I registered it as Drunken Sen.

Ginfuki is produced in Shiga Prefecture The second bottle of Makuake limited edition It's elegant, easy to drink, and goes down easily. It's not just smooth, it's full of sweetness and flavor❣️. The acidity is well balanced. It has a great potential to be a great sake.

Japanese>English

Rice used is Hida Hidahomare from Hida Almost no sense of maturity To put it simply A light, dry sake with umami. I would say it is a light, dry sake with a great umami flavor. It is good as a food sake! It was a great match with grilled fish.

Japanese>English

Tenryo, which I ordered at a meal on my trip. It was a freshly brewed and stored Honjozo brewed with Hidahomare. I usually don't drink Hidahomare, Honjozo, or Nama-Seizou, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to drink it. The color was crystal with a slight yellow tinge. The aroma is quite mild, with mineral and earthy notes. When you drink it, it has a slightly fruity overtone. Next comes a sense of minerality and a hint of sweetness. There is also a slight white ball-like feeling. The acidity is smart and not too assertive. Bitterness appears a little at the end. The lingering aftertaste is pale and slowly fades away with the bitterness. As is typical of honjozo, it has the sake-like flavor that is generally imagined by those who do not normally drink sake, but it is a food sake with a fruity character that is typical of freshly stored sake. It's meant to be served at ryokans, as it goes perfectly with fish, vegetables, and other Japanese dishes! I've been drinking a lot of sake that can be drunk on its own, so I'm very satisfied with my first "food sake" in a long time! It may not be a hit with those who only accept easy-to-understand sake, but for those who like dry sake, or those who want to enjoy a marriage between sake and food, or to complement food, this is a naturally delicious sake.

Just by the echoes of the Nebuta, there is also a please-sake, isn't there? I asked him to do so, but he ignored all my requests. So I drank the Momokawa nebuta in loneliness. I don't know what it tasted like, but I deserved it. I'm too drunk 🫣. Well, I don't know about myself, but I seem to be at a level where I can't keep up with both Tokyo and Kansai 😱. He was the only one who saw everything.

Japanese>English

This Sake is a nice change from what I have been drinking recently. It has a sugary sweetness similar to a ripe muscat. There is a Medium mouth feel followed by a slight dryness at the finish for a clean aftertaste. Delicious. 😋

Names of places I will never forget in my life. To name a few, the name of one of them. It's an old man's prerogative to bemoan the fact that personal impressions are being passed around, but he doesn't care to understand the background behind them. Yes, it's my opinion of alcohol. This is the taste at a restaurant I haven't seen in a while. It is a drink that seems to be a bad idea for people who don't drink sake, and it stirs the imagination of a drunken old man to think that he remembered it. The spiciness of the taste is a little bit sly, but the old-fashioned taste will not deceive you. If you read between the lines of the terrible writing, it is delicious. I don't want to say that it is a leap of faith, but it is an excellent drink to drink with a sense of everyday life and a sense of balance. Noshiro, for the generation that played a certain sport, it is special, and I feel old, and I was able to drink a delicious drink, today. Thank you for being here today.

A bit peculiar but not bitter 🤔. This is a food wine 🍶´- with assorted sashimi 😋😋. Untan ✺✺ and (,,-д-,) nma! There were so many good sakes, but I'm interested in the ones I've never had 😅. I have some pics... but I think I probably drank a little... There were about 4 that I didn't take note of my impressions (¡-ᴗ-;ก)

Memorandum for Tuesday, May 23 (2) 🍶. A gift from a colleague in Iwate - ⤴️✨ He said it was sake from near his parents' house in Yamagata 😊. We all enjoyed it together, We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/.

It's a nice day 🌈 Now, I was expecting a fluchy since it was described as delicious in a glass of wine.... I guess it's not, it's more like slightly dry and tasty 😋. And very fresh 🎉. and the aroma and flavor of rice 🎉. I thought it would go well with any dish, Japanese or Western 👍✨.

［Fukui Spring New Sake Festival 10] I'm on my 10th cup of sake 😁. I was looking for my favorite "Hakugakusen" and found that it was only available on the first day of the event, so I went here instead 🍶. Unnoi Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjyo. Banana-like aroma, gentle sweetness on the palate, and a lingering mild umami aftertaste. I have a connection with "Kumonoi" since I brought it to the Kansai Sake-no-Iwa offline meeting I attended last summer, and it is still delicious when I drink it again.

Japanese>English

This bottle was given to me as a birthday gift last year. I've been accumulating a stock of sake, so I decided to drink it slowly. It's a rare opportunity to see a bottle of sake in a tobin enclosure! It makes my heart dance ✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, you can smell a slight ginjo aroma. It is almost scentless. The mouthfeel is very clean, but the soft, milky sake quality and subtle sweetness of the rice gradually covers the tongue! The spiciness and the strength of 16% alcohol can be felt in the latter half of the bottle, but the overall flavor is moderate. I think I have not had such a clear sake since I drank the highest quality sake of "Akagisan" (12,000 yen for 720ml)! It is as pure as a gentle breeze. It quietly accompanies you from the beginning to the end. The taste is the very embodiment of "elegance. It is a good bottle to drink by itself or to enjoy as a food wine! Enjoy it carefully over the course of the day👍.

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima This is a light flavor. It has a moderate alcohol content, a slight sweetness, and a crisp finish. It was a good food sake that can be drunk without hesitation. ❣️

Japanese>English

@sakebar Fukuzo This sake is from the same Kobayashi Shuzo Honten as the "Hakata no Mori" I posted a while ago. Mandai must be more famous locally 🤔. It will be pressed on the morning of Risshun 🍶. The aroma on the nose is fruity🍍 and sweet. When you take it into your mouth, it has a deep, mild sweetness and umami that is typical for a draft sake, and it finishes with a slight astringent taste. It was delicious 🍶✨.

Japanese>English

I was aware that it was originally intended to be a classic sake, but as I expected from a sake pressed in the morning of Risshun, it was a fresh, elegant, and sweet sake with a great aroma. I was very satisfied with the sake, which tasted even better than I had imagined.

A refreshing and crisp sake typical of Echigo breweries. Serve it warm. Sake is a breeze created by local rice, water, humanity, and nature. This is exactly what I feel, and I feel the brewer's message and sensibility in likening it to the wind.

Akita business trip... (1) Kanto, hot 🥵. Last week was my trip to Akita... or rather business trip 😅. Speaking of Akita.... First of all, I bought a small bottle of this at a local supermarket. There are so many small bottles in the supermarket, I can't choose which one I like best 😳. Looks slightly yellow Is it solid? It was so rich and clean.... Oh my goodness, it's so rich and sharp 🤩. It's so good! The sake I quickly picked up was a winner 🎯. I'm so happy😊. I also saw the dry review... I'm not sure if it's a little spicy when the temperature rises.... I think it's about the same. Is my tongue weird? 😅 I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to drink outside this time. Next time I want to try Izakaya local sake 😊.
