［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👍.

(🍶🍶🍶🍶´-+ Today's purchase in Akita is a cup of Hiduyoshi 😀. I had it at room temperature and it tastes a bit sweet, solid yet gentle and easy to drink 💕It's the kind of sake that's perfect for an evening drink 😚.

Japanese>English

Hiduyoshi received as a souvenir from a New Year's party I have an image that Hideshiyoshi tastes better a few days after opening the bottle, and this one is no exception! It tasted hard and so-so right after opening the bottle, but after 3-4 days, the impression changed completely. From the flat taste of the past, a clear acidity has opened up along with a savoriness that comes in a jolt, and the dry base has been covered by the savoriness and acidity. The flavor is now fuller and more vibrant, and it's ah~ delicious! Yes, this is it! This is what I mean! Thank you very much for the sake!

Memorandum of May 22 (Monday) ③🍶. Get-together with friends in Akita ✨🍻🎶. The store had prepared the drinks for the collet ⤴️✨ Fun for everyone, We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/

Cool. This label. I have never seen this in Osaka. It is so-called "aluzoe. The impression is that you can feel the presence of rice in the beginning, but the aftertaste is clean and refreshing. Oh, I want to eat sushi!

Japanese>English

My brother went to a sake event in Niigata, He found a sake that he liked and shared it with me. With all due respect, I had never heard of this brand. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was unassertive. When you drink it, it is sweet but well balanced, It is not too sweet, but has a sharp taste and disappears quickly. It is delicious, and at 17%, it is very drinkable. It is easy to drink with meals.

Japanese>English

Brewed by Oomon Shuzo in Shinbonda, Niigata Oomon Yume Junmai Ginjo When I drank it In the blink of an eye The mouth is quickly filled with water, Then, in the blink of an eye, the sweetness and umami sweetness and umami spread throughout the throat in the blink of an eye. And yet there is a sharpness in the aftertaste. What a wonderful sake!

At home. I know I'm a little late, but I'd like to wish everyone a happy new year. The first bottle I opened this year was Suzukagawa from the same brewery as Saku, which I got at the end of the year. The aroma, sweetness, acidity, and bitterness in the mouth are very similar. It wasn't as impressive as the Saku, but it was a delicious gem. At the end of the year, I mainly drank the same brands, but now that the year has started, I would like to try more and more new ones that I have never tasted before. This Suzukagawa is the first step, and I hope it will be a good start. I would like to continue my efforts to develop new sake.

Japanese>English

I was going to buy Junmai from Suzukagawa, but they had a new sake, so I decided to buy this one 😊. Aroma with a beautiful atmosphere. It has a calm freshness and a firm sweetness. Saku's new sake is delicious, but Suzukagawa is also good 😋.

Japanese>English

Aru-soke Ginjo class, which is not found in "Saku". Fruity flavor and a light mouthfeel. It goes in smoothly. It is not only light, but also has a well-defined taste. It is excellent as a food wine and goes well with everything. My partner, who loves "Saku", drank it at a high pace.

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.

Smooth and sweet around. Smooth with flavor.

Light mouthfeel. The umami slowly creeps up on you. The description "Myoumi desu-dan" shines.

It has the smell of mambo candy, which is a candy made of colored vinyl and filled with a candy like ramune, pears, and rice. It starts with the fruity sourness of pear and rice, followed by a pungent spiciness and then a full-bodied, delicious sweetness. The caramelized taste comes in like it has been aged, and the sweetness, which is not as sweet as sugar, and the light bitterness extend. If you continue to drink it, it will taste sweet in the mouth, but if you pour some cold sake back into the mouth, you can drink it without hesitation. As you continue to drink it, your tongue gets used to it and the caramel taste is a nice accent, making it a delicious drink. It is delicious. When the temperature is raised to 60 degrees Celsius, the spiciness, acidity, and the rice flavor are all present.

(*´ω*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 At Sakaishi Daigo (Part 12) I had my first bottle of Asahi Taka 😀 . It's an all-you-can-drink drink, so I had the luxury of comparing it with a bottle of Jyushiyo Honmaru. My impression is that both are delicious. I felt it was completely different from other Honjozo 😙I would like to drink it again 😁.
