The first sip goes down smoothly, but after two or three sips, the taste of rice becomes more pronounced.
It is not so much a food sake, but rather a drink to be sipped while licking salt (laugh).
★★★☆☆☆☆
I like the subtle sweetness of the rice!
It's not flashy, but it's easy to pair with a meal, and it's a good value for money.
Gifu still has a lot of good sake to offer.
★★★★
Purchased while on a business trip to Shizuoka.
It has a sweetness of rice with a nice sharpness.
It is easy to pair with a meal.
The taste is very good.
It's been a while since I've had an instrumental Masamune.
The official website says it has a grapefruit-like freshness, but it has more of a banana-like sweetness and aftertaste.
It seems to be more pronounced, especially after a while after opening.
★★★☆☆☆☆
I drank it for the first time and it was freshly opened so it was light fizzy and refreshingly sweet.
The store was nice, so I rated it 1.5 percent higher (a lie).
★★★★☆
If there is a new sake from Tenmei, which I love, I will drink it!
When opened, it has a bubbly taste, and as it settles down, the sweetness of the rice can be felt more, but is it more of a crispy type?
Personally, I prefer it freshly opened.
★★★★☆
I love Tokujiro again this year.
I love its gorgeous aroma and fruitiness!
It is also very easy to drink, but of course it is better to drink it slowly as a food wine.
★★★★☆
Slightly sweet, but refreshing. It's a little fizzy and goes down smoothly.
And above all, it's a great price!
I think it goes well with a meal, but it is also good to enjoy sake alone.
I guess the ingredients and the brewing process are local, so it must be good for the body.
★★★★★
I've been drinking a lot of Sentori lately, but this is the first time I've had a Snowman, which I've been wanting to drink for a long time.
It is sweet and really looks like champagne.
I can see why it is so popular.
However, it is difficult for me to evaluate it because I am a cost-conscious person....

I have always loved Gifu and used to visit there about once every two years, and I used to buy and drink it at the local liquor store.
I was surprised when I heard that they were moving to Hokkaido, but was relieved to hear that they have become very popular.
To be honest, I don't remember exactly what it tasted like before, but it's just as easy to drink!
★★★★☆
This is a limited time hiyaoroshi from the recently popular Sentori.
It is said to be a blend of three different rice varieties...sourness, sweetness and a bit oaky.
I couldn't really tell the hiyaoroshi feeling... but it is usually delicious.
★★★★☆
My favorite Tenmei! It is also delicious!
The sweetness of the rice is well balanced with a clean aftertaste.
The label says it is a food sake type, but you can enjoy it just by itself.
It is also very cost-effective, but be warned that a bottle will be gone in no time.
★★★★★
A local liquor store recommended it to me, saying that it is mostly consumed in Iwate Prefecture and not available much elsewhere.
It was my first time drinking Hitomebore sake, and it was delicious.
The flavor changes when it is heated up, which is interesting.
It's very interesting to drink it hot and the flavor changes.
It has a refreshing taste with a touch of sweetness from the rice.
It is dangerous because you can drink it in gulps!
It's good for leisurely drinking, or maybe even a mealtime drink?
★★★★☆
I happened to stop by a local liquor store and found this.
This is the first time I've had it, but it seems to be very popular these days.
It's clean and somewhat fizzy, with a slight banana-like flavor lingering in the aftertaste.
It's a great taste for the price!
★★★★☆
Sweet! Fruity! A little fizzy!
I had heard it recommended for spring sake and finally had a chance to drink it.
It's great as a food sake, but it's also perfectly fine on its own, which is probably why it's so good for cherry blossom viewing!
It's so easy to drink, it's dangerous.
I opened a four-pack of bottles all at once...
