(*^o^*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I asked the lady at the liquor store for a good flavor recommendation and bought some 😀. The taste is light and refreshing, with a gentle sweetness and umami 😚 and a refreshing acidity, with a slight grape🍇 like aroma 😘. Not the usual gusto sake, but a rounded and rounded sake that is easy to drink 🥳.

⎛;c*-wha-⎞🍶🍶🍶+ Today we got a cup of Tsunekigen, a local sake from Ishikawa Prefecture 😀. It's cold today, so I heated it up 🍶. After all, a cup of sake is only good when it's hot😚💕It has a nice umami taste😊It's a delicious sake with a strong style, the royal way of sake😆👍✨

Japanese>English

(*￣￣)🍶🍶🍶🍶 KISS of FIRE is a local alcoholic drink. I've seen it on TV commercials sometimes. It's a bit pricey, but I got it from a friend and had it chilled. It's an easy to drink sake without any habits, but it's a little bit quiet and too ordinary. It was a beautiful sake with a beautiful taste.

Tonight, our first series, Kikuyu by Yoshikawa Brewery from Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It is 100% Dewa Sanzu, Junmai Nama-no-Hajime made with Kyoukai No. 6 yeast. It has a ginjo aroma between cucumber and pear, and the first sip is clear with a full sweetness, but later on, a strong bitterness and alcohol taste follows, making it dry and smooth.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we decided to open a new sake once in a while, so we had this one from the Yoshikawa Sake Brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture. Junmai Nigori Sake - Luxurious Aragoshi ✨✨✨✨. The sake seems to have been bottled after the new sake unrefined sake has been roughly fermented 😄. The aroma has a hint of pear and apple. When you take a sip, you can feel the gasiness and acidity, but it is juicy and delicious 😋😋😋😋 When you mix the lees, you can feel the sweetness of the rice and the creaminess increases, which is also delicious 😋😋. This was definitely one to repeat 🤗

Japanese>English

A bottle I bought on my first visit at the beginning of the year. It has been a long time since I have had a bottle with a dry, Han-like taste. It has a strong alcohol taste. If you warm it too much, the strength will increase, It is best to warm it up to lukewarm to get the right roundness. It was cold, so we had it with oden.

Seisen has a traditional flavor when it is fire-aged...but the raw sake is delicious 🍶...sweet rice aroma...sweet and bitter on the palate, but not bitter enough to be bothersome. Jungin sake brewed with 100% Chiba's sake brewing rice "So no Mai"... I am enjoying it with "Vinegared Myouga" and "Salted Marlin" from Chiba... a delicious marriage...

Japanese>English

Elegant rice aroma...sweet on the palate! The taste of rich Omachi and the lingering acidity are good... You can enjoy it without any snacks! Chiba's local sake is delicious!

Japanese>English

It is the best way to have a good time with your friends and family... The scent of the ginjo is refreshing... When you pour it into the cup, it is amber in color... The sour taste in the mouth is very strong and the bitter aftertaste is also very characteristic of the local brew, so you can enjoy it with the whale sauce, a specialty of Boso, as a snack. That's the way it is.

Sake meter value +8. Very robust and dry, but The ginjo aroma makes it elegant and cohesive. It can be enjoyed on its own or It is also perfect as an in-between-dinner drink.

Japanese>English

The first sip is unexpected. The taste is clean and refreshing. But when you take your time to taste it, you will realize that it is the Etsukaijin's strong and complex flavor that sells it. Etsukaijin is known for its powerful and complex flavors. You can taste the robust umami.

Japanese>English

This is my first time drinking Etsukaijin. As the label clearly states. Sake degree +10 degrees, alcohol level is around 18 degrees. It has a thick and rich taste. It is well-balanced with a touch of sharpness. It is a brand that I would like to follow for a while. In order to conquer the whole country This is one of the bottles that I chose while hesitating in Kagawa prefecture which was empty. If I hadn't been working at Sake no Wa I'm sure I would never have drunk it. I really appreciate it.

I bought it for a souvenir, but a customer traveling from Hokkaido🐴 gave me some chocolates and I didn't have any on hand, so I had to rush to the store and drink it with everyone, including my sister🥂. I heard it was only medium-hot, but it's still hot ❗️. I want to warm up some 👩 for my sister! I just had a reflective stove. (I was boiling daikon radish for oden 🍢) I'd love to heat up some sake with this 👩 It's not a fashionable place, but it's a very relaxing and nice place 🥰. I'll see you later 🎁🙏🏻

Japanese>English

Morioka! I chose the sake to go with the stylish snacks. This is also my first time. Nice choice by me. It is nice and clear and dry. Iwate's dry sake has no grandfather. The dialect in the store is nice. It makes the sake go down a treat!

Acidity Umami Firm Floral Dry Tranquil Fizzy Bitterness

Yuho 1

Yuho 2

Yuho 3

Smells like yogurt, and when the temperature rises, it smells like cotton candy. The rice-flavored liquid is slightly carbonated, and while you think it is light to drink, it changes and becomes heavy with rice flavor, astringency, a sourness and bitterness that comes in a rush, then changes to sweetness and a lactic acidity that is tingling and refreshing. The changes are interesting. When muddled, the rice flavor becomes stronger and a little bitter, and the umami that comes after is pleasant, with a slight sweetness and flavors of rice and koji that are both powerful and beautiful. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

I wish I could be a part of this event! I had a small bottle of Yuho, which is made from the sake rice of Ishikawa Prefecture, Hyakumangoku no Shiro 😀 It is a delicious sake with a pure rice flavor.

Japanese>English

( ☆¯ πι¯☆)🍶🍶🍶🍶 We opened a bottle of Youho's Yamayoshiroshi today 😀. It's my first time to drink it at home 😁. The aroma is mild and not so much 🤔, probably due to the fact that the bottle was chilled to the perfect temperature before opening. It has a strong umami 👍and a fresh aroma that may be derived from the Yamahai method 😊It has a nice sharpness to it 😚. Summer sake🌻⛅️ is over and it's time for cold sake🍁🍄🌰 which is now in full flavor🥰I'm looking forward to the future sake🥳.

They use a yeast called "Kyo no Koto" which was jointly developed by Sasaki Shuzo and the Kyoto City Institute of Industrial Technology. If that's the case, why don't they write it on the label? It's quite floral, but banana-like. At the end, the sourness kills it. So far, I don't think I've had a bad bottle of Fuoh.

Japanese>English

I bought it at ●Maya because I thought it was rare to find Tomiou's Yamahai. It was sweet with lactic acidity. Then there is a bitterness with a graininess. A little peculiar? A little nutty. It has a complex taste with caramel and creaminess. After a few days, it tastes like yogurt or calpis. After a few more days, it's hard to describe, but it has a type of habit I don't like...

Japanese>English

Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (¡Ω) Very yellow. Delicious and mellow as expected! Although from the Fushimi brewery, this sake would definitely be better suited to those who prefer San-in sake! I've been afraid to go to Kyoto since the new cologne, but this makes me want to go to Fushimi to buy some! But I still don't have the guts to take the train only in the direction of Kyoto where there are many tourists! Still, this sake has enough charm to make me brave enough to make the decision to go to Fushimi, even if I am trembling!

Rice used is Sakonishiki At first, I thought it was sweet⁉️, but soon I felt the spiciness. It is a dry sake like Japanese sake. I think it tastes better when it is heated up.

Japanese>English

It was developed by a female brewer in 2004 and is said to be a sake for women. It has a slightly sweet taste with a sake content of -3, but the alcohol content is high at 18 degrees. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. The aroma of the rice is strong in the mouthfeel. The sweetness is followed by a crisp dry aftertaste✨.

I enjoyed it with simmered peeled fish and boiled eggs. I enjoyed it with simmered peelings, boiled eggs, and other dishes.

It is very fruity because of the use of CEL-24. However, it is not as sweet as Kameizumi, Toyonoubai, or Kaygetsu. It is sweet and bitter. The other one I haven't tried is Bikuyo's CEL-24. I think it's a little bit sweet and bitter like Shibotan's CEL.
