I was curious about this sake when I saw it on Sake no Wa before. It was given to me as a present by chance. It has a spreading umami and a bitter finish. It was a delicious sake. The "Recommended for you" list has become full of Hokkaido sake 😀.

Japanese>English

It has a firm spiciness and moderate acidity. Sharp, clear mouthfeel, and quite alcoholic for its 16% alcohol content.

Tokyo's local sake. Trial 300ml bottle. The aroma is unexpectedly fruity, and the mouthfeel is sweet and bitter. Fresh, light, and refreshing? It is easy to drink without any habits. It's quite tasty...I guess it's like a light and delicious sake...I didn't know there was such a Junmai-shu in Tokyo...

Japanese>English

Rice used: Akebono from Okayama Prefecture, Gohyakumangoku from Niigata Prefecture, Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture This is a new product from a local liquor store. I thought it was a Toyama sake, but it turned out to be an Edo sake. The acidity is strong, and there is a refreshing summery flavor. The bitter and spicy aftertaste is also good. The overall balance is not bad. Sake from Tokyo is not to be underestimated ❗️

Japanese>English

Light on the palate and easy to drink. Delicious!

- 惡̀ ♡ 惡́- The 40th anniversary of the release of Women's Cry 2020 A gorgeous and dignified bottle that is sure to be a hit with the ladies. It also goes well with Western food🍴 This is one of my favorite brands of Shizuoka local sake!

Japanese>English

New Year's sake (2) - Women's tears When I went back to my parents' house, my father bought this sake. It seemed to be a recommendation from Aoki Shoten. With all due respect, I had never heard of this sake and it was unknown to me. When I opened the bottle, there was not much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness and gradually start to feel the alcohol, and it ends up being dry. From the naming, you would expect it to be intensely dry. It is easy to drink. There are still many sake that I do not know about, and sake is very deep.

Brewed by Sakata Fermentation in Sakata, Yamagata Michinoku Yamagata Doburoku, limited edition of fragrant gin doburoku My favorite Sakata Fermentation 😆 This time, we have a new product, "Aroma Gin Dobu", which was not available before. This time it was "Aroma Gin Dobu" which was very rare! First of all, I drank only the supernatant. What a great taste! It's gassy and full of sweetness and umami 😆. Then I mixed it and drank it as doburoku. I knew it was a stable Sakata Fermentation 😆. It's so good backslash! Gorgeous aroma and gaseous taste and the super flavor of the rice It's an excellent harmony 😂.

Japanese>English

At the usual restaurant The third glass was a different yeast from the usual Kurodobu, the first of 5 different yeasts that are shipped out every month 😆. 601 is the oldest yeast currently available from the Association and is said to have a mild, clear aroma and umami (flavor).

Japanese>English

with doburoku purchased at our usual store the day before. I enjoyed the sweet and sour flavor over the weekend. 😃

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

If you go to Itami, you will find Hakusetsu (Konishi Sake Brewery) and Old Pine. First, let's take a look at Old Pine. This time, Junmai Nama Nama sake, light nigori (light nigori). There is also nigorigo. A little bit cloudy. I feel like I'm getting drunk too fast... I went down in big gulps!

Japanese>English

I stopped by a local old pine tree where I had some business to do and bought my first shibori. It was the first time to drink Hatsushibori, and I enjoyed the gap between it and the hiyaoroshi I drank last month. I had it while enjoying the difference from the hiyaoroshi I drank last month.

It is rich and sweet with a dry taste. It has a high alcohol content of 17 degrees. Freshly opened and cold, there was a roughness. When the temperature rises a little, full-bodied sweetness♩Pop label was also an eye-catching bottle!

O(^o^)o Sem Sem Sem Sem Sem Sem It is the second day of the cup life. Today is Ichinoya in Fukui Prefecture. I've had Akatsuki and Tsukishibijin before, but today I'm drinking a cup of Kamisen. Room temperature on a hot day. It was delicious 😀.

Japanese>English

(*´ч ` *)🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we got a bottle of Ichinotani, a sake from our neighbor Fukui Prefecture 😀. I bought it because of the old-fashioned, hard-core label 😚The specs are also very Chinese, 35% Yamadanishiki daiginjo😤, but the price is reasonable💰They really only have one bottle, but it seems that only the store of one of their customers has a 4-goupe bottle 👍. The aroma is mild and ginjo like 🍑😊Clear sweetness and refreshing acidity🥰The aftertaste is clean and disappears quickly😍✨It's a beautiful sake that goes down smoothly🥳It's a delicious sake😆👍✨

It was sold in a bottle at a supermarket. 10 kinds were available, and I bought 3 bottles for 880 yen. I think it was 880 yen. I'm not sure if it's the same or not. I like Eikoh because it is easy to drink ☺️.

Japanese>English

It's direct sake ⚡️. It's deep in the middle of sweet and spicy 😽💕. It's so thick, it's classified as a mellow sake! I feel like I'm drowning in Eikun's swamp😅.

(๑'∇'๑)b🍶🍶🍶🍶 Cups of sake purchased on the road, part 6 Tama cup 😸😸. Amber color ✨😚😚Lots of rounded flavor when you drink it😊Dark flavor but with a gentle sweetness and weak bitterness that gives it a nice kick🥰. It's a delicious sake 🥳.

Japanese>English

I've known about this ice breaker for a while, but had somehow passed on it in Tamagawa. After seeing the many rave reviews on Sakenowa, I finally bought one 🙂. Oh, it's definitely thick and delicious! It's like a whiskey 👍. I'm convinced that it goes well on the rocks🤩. I was reminded that it's not just a summer drink that you can gulp down. It's not just a summer drink that you can gulp down. I will add this to my summer staples from now on👍.

Japanese>English

Tamagawa is a place where I sometimes feel like drinking. Summer is the time for this 😋. Icebreaker ❤️ It is recommended to drink it on the rocks, but this time I drank it straight and sipped it until the end. The sense of satisfaction is the same as ever. It is full-bodied, strong, complex, sweet, and delicious. It can be served on the rocks, with water, as it is, or heated.

Creamy Crisp Mild Firm Banana Rich

Funaotaki 3

Hiya. Firm umami flavor. Spicy richness in the middle.

Japanese>English

This is the first time I've seen this warehouse. The rice used is Maikaze. As the name suggests, everything, including the yeast, is from Gunma, and it seems to be an annual event. The mouthfeel is mild. It is bitter-sweet with a slight banana aroma. It gently finishes with a hint of umami. It seems to have a lot of depth. Well-balanced and cohesive sake. I️ would like to visit Funao Falls too!

Japanese>English

After a few drinks, it was quite late, so I headed home while eating a golden dharma bento commemorating the 140th anniversary of Takasaki Station. I will close my Gunma trip with "Akagisan" and "Funao Taki"! Sweet and sugary aroma like sugar. The taste is smooth and silky, and while it has a Gunma sake-like quality, it tastes more like a sweet sake derived from brewer's alcohol. There is nothing outstanding about it, but it is a perfect match for ekiben (boxed lunches), with its unobtrusiveness, slight sweetness, and crispness!
