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.

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!

My parents-in-law gave me this sake as a souvenir from Tanba Sasayama. It's a completely unknown brand, so I was very nervous when I opened the bottle. Maybe it's because we've been drinking a lot of autumn sake lately, but it's surprisingly refreshing 😳 You can drink it easily without getting stuck. It has a faint sourness and a spiciness that comes afterwards, and then it goes away quickly. It's a sake made with clean water that goes well with all kinds of food. We enjoyed it with pork kimchi and horse mackerel sashimi. I want to drink it carefully, but it will probably be gone in two days☺️.

I'm drinking at home ♬ A souvenir from Arima Onsen from a friend! Thanks 👏. It has been a while since I have tasted a light flavor. I've been on a sweet streak, so this is good too!

Japanese>English

The one we got. This is a decansho-bushi, it seems. The flavor comes in slowly and flows gently through to the aftertaste.

(*^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 🥳.

Japanese>English

⎛;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.

The rice is firm and delicious. It is dry and sharp. The taste is unique to the tankard's direct pumping. It has a high alcohol content of 17-18 degrees. It is made of "Gohyakumangoku" from Toyama with a rice polishing ratio of 60%.

Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix㉗ Since there was only a short time left, we decided to choose one sake from each brewery separately to share! Polishing ratio 70%, Sake degree -1, Alcohol 18%. It has a gaseous taste and is sweet and delicious. I liked it better than the Shiraoi I've had in the past. I might buy it again if I have a chance.

I went to a sake brewery and bought it because I was attracted by the label. It has a refreshing taste with a sour aftertaste. 1,628 yen.

This sake was created by the young successor of the brewery, who wanted to make a light and easy-to-drink sake. He was trained at Akebono Shuzo in Tenmei. Expectations are high 😊. It has a beautiful sweetness and is very easy to drink ❗️ It seems to go well with any meal and is a versatile player. I hope more and more young sake makers are getting involved and the sake market is expanding 😆.

Japanese>English

[I like it, ferry 😆 ] I've had a couple of sake from Watarifune so far, and they're usually good 😋, with a nice balance of umami and bitterness from the gentle sweetness. I think Naminoe is a rare brand that you don't see much in Tokyo. I bought it for the first time, and I got the impression that it is moderately sweet and refreshing. The aroma in the background is a fresh melon candy type. It is more suitable for simmered dishes than sashimi👍.

Japanese>English

Fruity with a pear-like aroma. The sweet and sour taste is very delicious. This sake is from Izumiya in Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture. A great sake to drink after eating sardine rolled in seaweed as a Tsumami.

(🍶🍶🍶🍶´-+ 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!

Kasumigashoju, Junmai Ginjo. I bought it immediately because it was half price at the drugstore. The spiciness and sweetness overlap and fuse from the beginning and disappear with a delicious taste. Good ministry.

It is said to be junmai nama-shu, but while it is youthful, it is also spiky. I expect the mouthfeel would be better if it were laid down a little longer. Despite being junmai, it has a strong alcohol taste like an aruze. It is a strange sake that has a caramel-like matured aroma. The overall balance is well balanced, which is strange. It has a strong flavor, so it would be good with hormone stew, meat dishes with pepper and spices, and very spicy food, or strong food with strong flavor. Alcohol, caramel, cooked rice
