I enjoyed the cool sour taste. The aroma is a refreshing "rice"🌾 At first sip, it has more punch than I expected but it is pleasant. The aftertaste is refreshing and the sharpness is delicious✨. The light nigori also makes you feel cooler It makes me feel more cool Tomoka Imamura, the female toji of Wakaha Shuzo tweeted that she paired it with cheese. I also paired it with Kili's cream cheese. I can't wait to try it out! I also want to drink Wakanami TYPE-FY2 I want to drink it.

I bought this Akatombo at Kado-Yasan in October. I kept it in a safe place, but I opened a bottle today. It's really good! It's sweet all the time while rolling it around in your mouth, but when you finish it, the sourness stands out and you can feel some bitterness at the end. It's a taste I like.

This this this! Banana🍌 aroma 😆 My favorite Wakanami's sake smells like bananas! Yummai! Mildness like hiyaoroshi! It tastes like banana🍌 and grape🍇 ! No bitter aftertaste, so it's a little bit sad 😂.

This Sake has a full mouth feel and some sweetness at the beginning. The flavor of this Sake is bigger than other Seitoku Sake but it still has good balance. Very good with big flavor foods like mapo tofu.

This Sake has an initial sweetness and a full mouth feel. There is a hint of cedar as the alcohol clears my pallet. Very good with big flavor foods like yakiniku. Seitoku has many Sake that I enjoy.

This Sake is light, refreshing and easy to drink. I am revisiting this Sake because it has been a while since I last drank it. I enjoy the mild flavors of apple and melon with a clean, short aftertaste. This is a refreshing and well balanced Sake.

🐟 This is the first ayu we tasted at the ski lodge. It was refreshing and sweet, and was a nice palate cleanser when drunk in the middle of a meal. It's a shame that I could only drink one cup of it. The label is cute too 🐟

Japanese>English

🌥 It was chilly today 😢. I opened a "first sweetfish" which is cool to look at ✌️. The taste is just like the impression on the label❗️ It's fresh, smooth and easy to drink 🙂. A cool sweetness that is elegant. As for the acidity, as you continue to drink it... oh, maybe there is a little? It's just a little bit. The bitterness you feel after swallowing is also refreshing 😆 . The alcohol content is 16 degrees, but it's like drinking a low alcohol I feel like I'm drinking low alcohol 😉 . It's like drinking a low-alcohol drink....

Japanese>English

This is the first sweetfish recommended by the liquor store 🐟. I bought it by the square because they say it's sweet and tasty this year✨. I had my wife drink it and it was sweet and easy to drink ‼️ 🍶.

First encounter since the change from Fukuhime at the Hakata Station event. The first sniff was like a sacred wine But I didn't mind from the second sniff. The taste is more modern, but I could feel a little alcohol. Since it's a nokumi, it's very exciting to see how it will change from here.

The fifth "Masamune Shibari" cup Juichi-Masamune Sakura Yeast Original Sake This is my first time to drink Masamune. The aroma is rich and sweet with brown sugar. On the palate... I knew it. ❗️ It's a little bit sweet, but not too sweet 👍.

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown There seem to be several different cup designs. This sake is sweet and spicy, and has a "sake smell" in a good way. There is nothing sharp about it, and it is perfect for an evening drink. ❗️ I don't dislike it. 86th sake in a cup

Japanese>English

It's a hydrangea cup from Juichi Masamune😃I like the Showa feel 🎵.

☀️ Masamune hunters go today🍶. I found an undrinkable Masamune at "TABI BAR & CAFE SUZUVEL" 😆. It is a Masamune brewed by Obata Shuzo, famous for Manotsuru. It has a mineral aroma 😳. Clean herbal mouthfeel 🌿. The aroma is so rich that the sensation of sake fades 🫥. Rice flavor🌾 masks the sweetness and acidity, and the ginjo aroma stimulates the nose. It leaves a slight bitterness and astringency in the aftertaste🙄. It was a new drinking experience with a unique flavor 🤗. How cool to "speak without speaking" 🤩. I thought I should come up with a catchphrase like "Nice Masamune without talking about it" ❓🤣. Nice Masamune👍

Japanese>English

Finally opened a bottle of sake I bought in Otaru the year before last. It is delicious with a soft, sweet mouthfeel, followed by a beautiful acidity that leaves a clean aftertaste of umami and acidity.

Sashimi: tuna, kipper, octopus, and omelet. The proprietress I saw on Kazuhiko Ota's TV show seemed a bit scary, but she was very friendly and talked to me moderately 😆.

Japanese>English

I was attracted to it when I heard it was Asahikawa, so I tried it. I was told that it is easy to drink cold or warmed, but I had it warmed. It looks like a honjozo. Asahikawa, or rather the Oenon Group, is a widely used alcohol manufacturer.

Mishio Junmai Ginjo Omachi 100% Omachi produced in Okayama Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15-16%. Sake meter degree +2, acidity 1.8 (reference) Fat 5/7, opened 5/23 I wanted to drink a dry sake from Kochi and was attracted by the label that looked like a pattern of playing cards I used to have at my parents' house 🤣. The brand "Bishio" is a new brand that started in 2014. It is one of the Junmai Ginjo series that is based on the concept of "elegant sweetness reminiscent of honey" and is part of a trilogy that includes "Kitashizuku", "Gin no Yume", and "Omachi". The aroma is almost imperceptible after opening the bottle. In the mouth, it has a fruity, fruity aroma and flavor, but at the same time, the alcohol is very strong. The acidity is moderate and not harsh. The acidity is not too strong, but it's more spicy and tingling than the number 😅. I tried to drink it after 4 days, which is unusual for me, but although the mouthfeel got better, the strong alcohol feeling didn't go away. The aftertaste is light, so it would be classified as light-dry. It's like a Tosa sake in that respect 😊. Unfortunately, it didn't suit me and was disappointing 😅. Oh! Maybe I should have tried heating it up 🤔.

Japanese>English

Just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. I had never seen "Mishio" before.

Japanese>English

A beautiful sweetness spreads in the mouth. After that, it's dry, to say the least. I like this sweetness. It is not persistent. 88 points Sweetness: 3.4 Acidity: 2.4 Dryness:3 Hinted aroma:3.1

Extra Party with Mr. Gura After the first party was over and the commemorative photo had been taken, we had a chance to drink the sake that Yum- san got at Hasegawa Sake Shop when he went to Edo (Tokyo). Sorry for those who went home early 🙏. Fresh and tender 😋! Thick and fresh 😻 I hope there will be another sake brewery in Osaka station 🤗. I heard they can only make fresh sake because they can't use fire due to fire laws because it's inside the station.

Thank you for coming! Off-line meeting of Kansai Sakewa In front of the restaurant, right after the meeting with Mr. ☆Gra After the group photo was taken, we were talking in front of the store, and Uma Uma Uma-san served us some Tokyo souvenirs 😆. Tokyo Station Sake Brewery Peach Doburoku! A very rich peach with a smooth taste. The peach flavor is so strong that it doesn't feel like doburoku at all 🤣. It was very tasty 🙏. Hasegawa Sake Brewery is brewing at Tokyo Station...they are doing a great thing with their brewery at echinakas (echinakas) 😳.

Japanese>English

A cloudy, refreshing drink. It has a refreshing aftertaste due to its effervescence. It might be good as an aperitif. Thank you ☺
