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.

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.

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!

At home. Okuharima, which is always ranked first in Hyogo Prefecture, was the first time I had it - ‼️ The aroma is distinctive. It has a distinctive aroma. While you feel the aroma, the mouthfeel is smooth and dry, but you can gradually feel the sweetness and umami of the rice, and it has a refreshing sharpness. I have the impression that it is suitable to savor slowly and carefully.

As the name suggests, it is dry. Mild ginjo aroma and sharpness. It is suitable for a mid-meal drink.

〰fixture Hyogo Yume Nishiki 2022/08 Fairly deep golden color. It has a clear acidity from the Yamahai method and a sense of maturity. It is rich and full-bodied with a slight heaviness, but it has a sharpness. It is said to go well with botan nabe (hot pot), but it is difficult to match it with anything.

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.

I went to a liquor store near Niigata Station and asked the clerk, "Do you have any Yamama?" The clerk replied cheerfully, "We are out of Yamama, but we have Koshinoshiratori now. What is it? Koshino Jakucho...?" The clerk explained that the sake is made in the same tanks as Yamama, and that the middle sake is Yamama, while the aggressive and rough-run sake is Koshino-Shiratori. Well, I didn't know such a sake existed.... It is really amazing. I immediately had it in a wine glass, and the sweetness, umami, aroma, and gasiness were to my liking....................

A sake brewery in the mountains. Dry taste is just right for a meal. There is no smell. When you drink it, you will be surprised by the delicious taste of rice. It is just right for a dinner drink.

(**Oh, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!) 🍶🍶🍶🍶+ At Sakeiki Daigo (No.18) We had the all-you-can-drink course and had the Shiga Daijiro 😀 I don't remember much, but I think it was like an old-fashioned sake 🤔.

Japanese>English

It has a very rich, ripe, sweet, thick, full-bodied taste (¡Ω). And yet it is not cloying. It's the kind of warmed sake I like to drink when it's cold. I'd like to make this a staple in my house because it hits my favorite part of heating sake.

Japanese>English

The sake from the west, I thought it would be strong and angular, but it had a mellowness similar to the sake from the east, especially on the second day, and the sweetness was great. It was a small sake brewery according to Google, but it was very good with careful sake.

I was going to get him to buy this ice breaker a year ago, but he didn't buy it before it was released. This year I was able to get one, so I opened it right away. It's thicker, perhaps because I put ice in it to drink it. And it's sweet. It's the first sake I've had in a long time, so it's delicious. The label is cute because I like penguins
