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

I was told it tastes great on the rocks, so I drank it on the rocks😊. It was cool and delicious ☺️. The penguin label is cute too 🐧.

Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - A Spectacle of Sake and Food in Shikoku Junmai Arigokudaimai Very graininess and fullness, enhanced by acidity and astringency, but it needs to be heated. A heated sake corner is a must! Yamadanishiki 80 This one is also very dry and powerful! I asked where they sell it... Seriously, I have nothing to do! I want to go to Hattori Ryokuchi and buy some!

#Otsuka# w/o/a/ta/stone/too/akutsu Today we will completely pace ourselves with the restaurant's snacks😤. Next up is the Ezo deer cutlet 🤤🤤. It's my first time and I am very excited 🤩🤩🤩🤩! Here's the sake, a big issue 馽(hodashi). It has a cool and refreshing taste. I wondered if it would go well with gibier dishes, Ezo-shika deer has no smell at all and is tender and delicious🤣. The combination made us groan ✨.

The 5th Sagajo Shoten Presents at the 5th Bishushu Raku Kushan Shokai 😃. We were honored to have the opportunity to visit the Umaue Sake Brewery in Hiroshima ❗It's a rare sake to drink, and we had to have another one 😉. So this one is made with Ginpu! The other "Hodashi" is made with Kitashizuku and they are offering a sake that will make the people of Hokkaido happy 🎵Sounds great ✨. It's still dry and refreshing ❗It's the kind of sake that will flow well with very fatty meats 😋.

I had been curious about this sake for a while. I chose a pink light nigori. At the time of writing this comment, I could not give a detailed taste report, It is not sweet, but it has a refreshing fruity taste.

Japanese>English

It has a complex combination of acidity, sweetness, umami, and bitterness, and is neither heavy nor light, making it easy to drink and delicious.

Japanese>English

When I tasted it, it seemed sweet and juicy, but not quite. Should I leave it for a bit?

Junmai Ginjo 🍶 Henohenomoheji 😅 All of it is made from Yamada Nishiki 🌾 without agricultural chemicals in its own fields. Fairly yellow, strong acidity, matured. Daruma Masamune-like. It's a bit like Daruma Masamune. Surprisingly young freshness as you drink it ✨ matched with grilled wagyu beef ichibo 🐂👍 Umi and @Takadanobaba 20230516

I wanted to drink warmed sake, so I ordered a bottle of Akizuka. Natural sake made with Yamadanishiki grown organically without pesticides in our own rice paddies. Milky and warm! The bottle was left for a few weeks after opening, so it has a nice flavor. The rich and flavorful taste is perfect with Sumagatsuo sashimi! Enjoying the warmed sake while listening to our mom's tasty conversation! At Sumiyoshi

Japanese>English

This is also my first Akishika Henohenomoheji, 100% Yamadanishiki, 17% alcohol, slightly yellowish and not spectacular, but with a delicious rice flavor. I like fruity sake, but I have come to like this sake as well. How about drinking it lukewarm? I would like to try heating it up, but it would be a waste, so I'm not sure.

Second stop on the Takayama sake brewery tour. We visited Funasaka Sake Brewery. As usual, the tasting machine took care of us. I chose a junmai ginjo that seemed to suit me from the description. It was described as sweet, but I got the impression that it was medium sweet with no fruity taste. I wonder if it would be a sweet sake in this brewery's lineup? It tasted crisp.

Japanese>English

. It has a robust flavor with the full flavor of nama-zake character, slightly sweet and delicious! ✩4.0

Japanese>English

When it's not too cold, it's mildly sweet and lightly pungent. The aftertaste is short and crisp. When it's cold, the spiciness comes out.

Very ordinary cup of alcohol (´¦). You can taste a good sweetness with no added sugar. I'm happy with the taste, which is very typical for a cup of sake. It still tastes better when heated. It's not that unique, just a good cup! This is the kind of sake I like! This is the kind of sake I like! Mr. Mitamura went to Kiyotsuru! He was drinking old sake that you can't usually buy!

Refreshing, clean, dry 🍶. Taste of summer 🌞🍶. Easy to drink✨✨✨ We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/

Japanese>English

I bought a bottle of Ayagiku's raw sake because it seems to be rare. I bought it at Okura Sake Shop in front of Tamatsukuri Station. It is a new store opened this year. They seem to carefully select and handle brands that are not found in the Kansai region. They have a wide selection of sake brands such as Rairaku, Kinshi Morinori, Shonosato, Hizen Kurashin, Chitose Mori, Kikunoi, Hakuryu (Fukui Prefecture), Ayagiku, Hanashimi, Zoka, Morinokura, Rokkasen, Tenzan, etc. Sake made with Sanuki olive yeast. Fresh, rich, sweet and acidic. The acidity is impressive, but there is also a bit of spiciness in the latter half. It has a light mouthfeel for its alcohol content, perhaps due to the acidity. It does have a slightly tropical flavor.

(**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.

It's been a while since I've had sake. I don't often have a chance to drink Ehime sake, but I remembered this bottle that my aunt gave me and opened the bottle. It is a light cloudy, shwashy sake. It is sweet and slightly bitter. Delicious. I can only thank my aunt for this.
