I got some black soybean edamame and remembered that I don't have any sake at home, so I bought some sake from a big store. As it says, it's dry and spicy ☺️. It's easy to drink.

This sake is made with yeast No. 6. It has a complexity and depth of flavor like a sake yeast. It is not as refreshing as the other two. Personally, I prefer Yamama.

2021/06/28 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The design and color of the bottle is very stylish. When you open the bottle, the aroma is like muscat. It's light and fresh in the mouth. You can feel the sweetness of the roundness of the aroma. The more you drink, the more fruity it becomes. This may be a sake for women.

Japanese>English

October 7, 2022 Evening drink at home. It was the day of a local festival, so I decided to have something to drink. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a long time. I bought a bottle of GOZENSHU9(NINE), which I had been curious about for a while, and opened the bottle. The stylish bottle and label reminded me of wine. The bottle and label are fashionable, but it is made using the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai-Hashiroshi". I heard that it is made by the oldest method in Japan called "Bodai Hashimoto". It is an easy-drinking bottle with a pronounced rice flavor and acidity. It is an easy-drinking bottle. It was delicious with I enjoyed it with manatsuo, maiwashi sashimi, etc.

Melon-flavored Banana Cooled Sake Acidity Thick Subtle Umami Sweetness

Next is Bishu Kotobuki's Kame-no-o + No. 7 Orikarami. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served cold. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a slight acidity, umami, and sweetness. It gradually finishes with a slight astringency that is typical of Kame-no-o. Next, it was served warm. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a slightly robust umami and sweetness. The taste is slightly astringent, which is typical of Kame-no-o, and it gradually fades away. It tastes better when heated up too.

Japanese>English

The first saké I had last time was a clear saké of Yumeginko from Bishu Kotobuki with No.7 yeast. It is a draft sake, but it was stored at room temperature at the store, so we served it as it was. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of banana and ripe melon. In the mouth, the sweetness and umami are again like banana and ripe melon. The flavor profile is even clearer than last time, sweet and delicious 🥰. I think this sake tastes better if you let it sit for a bit after opening. It was delicious 🍶✨

Japanese>English

Finally, we had a bottle of Yumeginko +7 Sumi-shu. This was also freshly opened. First, it was served at room temperature. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, there is a moderate acidity with a hint of sweetness and umami like banana or ripe melon. The flavor profile is clear, probably due to the lack of orikura. Then warmed up. The first aroma is faintly sweet. In the mouth, it has a sweetness and umami like banana and ripe melon. The moderate acidity adds a nice accent. Both cold and warmed sake were delicious. I think this was also the best of the three. They have 2 types of Sumi-shu and 1 type of Oragara-mi that I haven't tried yet, so I have to go drink them 😋.

This was my first Koganezawa, a gift from someone. It is a Junmai Daiginjo made from Gohyakumangoku, so I had an image that it was quite refreshing, but it tasted just as it should. But it also has a strong umami of rice and is easy to drink without any peculiarities 😆 It is easy to pair with meals and I was off in no time 🤣. It was easy to match with meals and we finished it in no time 🤣.

Junmai Ginjo🍶Brut✨Hitomebore🌾 from Miyagi Prefecture. Gentle and easy to drink. ☺️ Good balance. Well balanced. It is as easy to drink as water when paired with corn kakiage (deep fried corn). It is a great complement to salmon. Hateful guy who makes you eat more 😅 Umi to @Takadanobaba 20230810

What a wonderful time on a weekday at noon. It has a clean taste, but the aroma of rice is very strong. Although it is said to be mild, it is a sake with a lot of body.

Sake from a small brewery with little distribution. Powerful. Rice polishing ratio 40%, alcohol 16%. A gift

Refill! Aromatic smell. The aromatic mouthfeel has a perfect balance of sweetness, bitterness, and umami. Although it is rich and has an alcohol content of 19%, there is no taste that sticks to you while drinking it, so you can drink it easily and be satisfied. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

Cream, aged smell. The wine has a matured taste, but it is in harmony with the sweetness and is not hard to drink. Full-bodied, umami, stimulated by alcohol and acidity, it is refreshing yet tasty with a strong flavor! I hear that the raw sake smells even better!

Japanese>English

Naohiko Noguchi Institute I wanted to try. Smells like caramel and grain. It has a dry, drinkable, honey-like sweetness, a strong flavor, powerful acidity, and a clean aftertaste with enough stimulation to numb the tongue. Delicious. Impact like a whiskey. The official recommendation is to drink it lukewarm (around 40 degrees Celsius). The warmer it is, the less stimulating it is. It is a great match for fish, and the fish becomes twice as good with the support. I should have bought another kind. Second day. The second day was also good.

I bought it at the warehouse. 2/3 of It was delicious with nabe (hot pot). It also went well with the sea bream rice we had at a restaurant with a view of the Shimanami Kaido Road. I'm sure it would go well with the sea bream rice we had at a restaurant overlooking the Shimanami Highway. I'm sure.
