On the way home from an outing, I stopped by a liquor store I frequent in Kanagawa Prefecture and looked for a sake that my usual liquor store didn't carry, but I couldn't find it, so I bought this one that I've always been interested in but never got around to buying 🍶‼️ Let's start with the aroma! Now for a sip: ‼️ Yeah👍 delicious! 🤤. The first attack was sweet and bitter, then the gorgeous aroma spread, and the umami was felt slowly at the end, that was my impression. I guess my impression is that it is a classy sake 🍶. I wonder what it is......like Royal Host ⁉️ (lol) It was a bottle that made me feel that maybe no matter what I buy here, I can always buy a stable and delicious sake. ‼️

I saw the Yamori 🦎‼️ that was floating around on Instagram. I knew I had to buy this one, so I was thrilled to take it home to my usual theme park ‼️ thinking to myself 😭 you stayed behind to come to my house properly. Let's start with the scent! It smells sweet and juicy, just like Yamori🦎. It's such an anticipatory scent that makes my mouth overflow with saliva⁉️. ‼️ I'm not sure what it smells like after all, but it's a juicy scent! Now take a sip‼️🍶🦎! The moment it enters my mouth, I thought it was sweet ❓ but the bitterness asserts itself a little stronger. I felt it was a dry sake 🍶 with aliveness, bitterness, and sharpness, not a rancid juicy type like the summer Yamoru I drank before. If you like the usual sweet Yamori, you may have a different impression 🤔. I think the bitterness will settle down after a few days, so I'm looking forward to it. ‼️🦎 I drank it hot later and it was so delicious 🍶I think I'm going to be addicted to this one, it's one that I'm pushing for hot sake: ‼️🍶.

I have always been interested in this drink, but never got around to buying it 🍶I wanted something solid, so I finally bought it! Let's start with the aroma! Sweet aroma of rice with a hint of alcohol 🍶. It's very promising for a robust type! Now for a sip: ‼️ It's fruity and sweeter than I expected, but the flavor is so rich that I feel like I've drunk it! It's just as I expected! The taste makes me want to drink this not only cold, but also hot. ‼️It's going to be the coldest time of the year, so I want to get through it while warming up with a hot sake. ‼️🍶

The reborn Sentori was sitting on the table, so I was torn between it and Hirotogawa Junmai Ginjo, and bought this one: ‼️ The other day, at a sake-only bar, I told the owner that the Sentori I had had before had a cemedine-like aroma, and the owner got mad at me. Let's start with the aroma! I have the impression that the aroma is generally lighter than the previous Sentori? I'm sure it has a 🤔sweet aroma! Now for a sip: ‼️🍶 Sweet ⁉️ juicy ⁉️ sour ⁉️ salty ‼️ The flavors come at you in this order: ‼️ This one is so sharp that I'm going to have another one: ‼️ Fear not, Renewed Sentori: ‼️ I'm going to enjoy it because it doesn't taste or smell like cemedine at all, which I felt before, so I'm going to think I've gotten rid of the bad taste 🍶.

I hit my usual liquor store on a weekday at noon: ❗️ It happened to be sitting in the "one bottle per person" section, so I bought it, forgetting once and for all that I was bound to a brand I'd never had before! Let's start with the aroma: ❗️ A sweet aroma with a sticky sensation. Peachy? Judging by the aroma alone, it seems to be a very sweet sake 🍶. Now for a sip: ❗️ It has a surprisingly crisp mouthfeel with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. I got the impression that it was the exact opposite of the aroma. The umami is neither too strong nor too thin, and it seems well balanced. ⛄️ Since this is the impression after letting the nigori stand, I wonder if it would be even sappier if it were allowed to settle❓

Nice to meet you, Mr. Hirotogawa. I have heard rumors about you for a long time, but this is the first time I can finally taste you! The last bottle of Hirotogawa nigori was sold out right in front of me, so I gave up and chose this one. Let's start with the aroma! Yes, it has a sweet cemedine-type aroma! I have a feeling the taste is going to be strong when you drink it: ‼️ Now, let's hit it (sip)! It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, sourness, and bitterness. The aftertaste is quite sweet, so I would recommend this bottle to those who like sweet sake. ‼️

Today, I went to a distant liquor store in the morning, and since I was down in the dumps after striking out on Jizokawa and Shinsei, I went to my usual famous sake store in the evening or so to regain my spirits and pick out some mellow sake: 😮‍💨 I told them that I wanted a refreshing, unpasteurized sake like Drunken Whale or Tedorigawa, and they recommended this one: ❗️ Nice to meet you, Mr. Zama🐎! Let's start with the aroma: ❗️ I don't think the aroma is that strong this time either. I don't have a stuffy nose or anything, but I think it's just a little sweet. It's not too sweet, but it doesn't spread well in a wide-mouthed boar cup. Now a sip ❗️🍶🐎 Oh, it's delicious! Delicious❗️ juicy sweetness that is typical of a fresh sake with a nice clean cut aftertaste❗️It's quite a bit sweeter than I thought it would be, but it's just plain delicious❗️ It might be perfect because it's the kind of rhum juicy that I like and has a clean aftertaste😍It's so easy to drink that if I had tomorrow off, I'd open it for sure❗️🍶I prioritize brands I've never had, but my encounter with this 🍶 made up for this morning...it's on repeat🍶. ❗️

I had the opportunity to visit a sake brewery in Tokyo that is well known for its delicious and famous gecko, so I paid a visit for the first time: ❗️❗️ I don't know if it's only available here, but there were a lot of sake that I had never seen before, so I bought this one that seemed to suit my taste while expressing my gratitude to the sake brewer for always letting me enjoy their sake. ❗️🍶 Now let's start with the aroma: ❗️ When you open the bottle, you hear a pop ❗️, which means it's a gas chili type of sake. ⁉️ I'm looking forward to it! The aroma is a little bit sweet. I don't know if it has any particular characteristics. If I had to say, it's a bit like the Sentori we drank last year. Then, take a sip. It has a sweet, berry-like aroma, but the flavor of the rice spreads quickly. ❗️ sweet and juicy 🍶. The aroma is much stronger in the mouth, more complex and a bit peculiar. It's not the ramune juwa~❗️ like Yamamori, but this is a delicious one that you will want to repeat. It's hard to describe, but it was that kind of sake that felt fun to drink 🍶.

This sake was my No. 1🏆🥇 of all the 2024s I managed to get at the end of the year. I had to put it off until today because of the fridge, but at the end of the winter break, it was finally opened 😆 ‼️ glad 😆. Let's start with the aroma! Stable pineapple 🍍No mistake, as stable and sweet as Dole's pineapple 🍎. I'm looking forward to it! Now take a sip‼️🍶 Mmmmmm ‼️mmmai‼️ I think I am one of the most pinappo of the hana yang. I think I've mentioned it before, but anyway, it's a pineapple juice 🍹🍍. I'm a sweet lover & a bad guy who draws sake newbies into the sake swamp 😎. I hope I can drink it again next year 🥺🙏 as this is going to be the end of this year's Hanayo for now.

The first one for the new year is ❗️ why cold chrysanthemum 39 2024❗️ I saw a lot of your imprints at the end of the year! I was wondering when to open it, but I wanted a sweet crispy one, so I chose this one‼️It's absolutely delicious 🤤. I'm just going to give a quick impression since everyone's impressions are so great! Let's start with the aroma! It's pear-like fruity and refreshing. The aroma of Kangiku is always lighter than the taste, so I guess that's about it. I guess that's about it. Now, let's take a sip! ‼️ Sweet and juicy! Sappy ‼️ a little tangy🍶. It tastes just as I expected. Stable sweet and juicy ‼️ I think I've been drinking Kangiku the most for some reason, but I haven't had any disappointment so far. It's like stability! This year, I would like to actively try new sakes that I have never had before! Thank you all for your support this year 🙇.

After much deliberation, I decided to open the last bottle of the year with this sake🍶! A guy at work goes to Niigata every year to stock up on sake, so I got a bottle for myself. The fact that he bought it for me in Niigata adds to my appreciation! 🍶 Let's start with the aroma! Sweet aroma derived from rice. I'm not sure if it has an alu feel to it, but it seems promising. Now, let's take a sip. It is not the image of the light and dry ❗️, but rather, the sweetness comes first, then the taste is rich, and finally the dry sharpness and a slight bitterness comes at the end. It was a great bottle to drink with seafood such as sashimi at the end of the year, and it further enhanced the flavor! After all, Hakkaisan is a sake brewer with deep pockets! This sake 🍶 is delicious!

One of my juniors at work gave me a bottle as a souvenir from a trip to Akita: ❗️ Thanks for the great gift 🍶! It's a sure brand, and I'm excited to hear that it's basically only sold in my hometown 💃. Let's start with the aroma! I get the impression that there is a bit of alkali in the aroma. A bit like a noble sake? It seems to be very drinkable 🍶. Then, thanks to my juniors, I'm going to rush in: ❗️❗️ Oooh! It has a sweet taste like strawberry🍓 that is refreshing like peach🍑, but not too strong, just the right amount of salt. ❗️ Moreover, the umami of the rice is following it, so it is not only refreshing but also very well-balanced. It goes well with a variety of dishes and can also be drunk on its own! I honestly felt that the brewer who made this sake is amazing! It's not often available, but if you ever get a chance to visit Akita, I would definitely buy it! I don't know what to do, this is the end of the year and the beginning of the New Year when I drink too much 🍶.

I stopped by the sake brewery during my trip to Yamanashi❗️ There were other limited editions from the brewery, but I wanted something sweet, so I bought this one, too, as there are only a few stores that sell it: ❗️It's my first time to Nanaken, and I'm looking forward to it: ❗️ Let's start with the aroma 🍶. It has a sweetness like pear and strawberry that goes through you smoothly, and it has a delicious and promising taste without any alciness 😆. Now for a sip: ❗️🍶 It has a sharp Daiginjo-like feel and a very well-balanced sweetness. It's very well-balanced sweetness! The tingling sensation and slight bitterness afterwards invites refills and makes me want to drink more...I thought! I think this will be one of my favorite bottles 🥴.

I've been meaning to have a drink for a while now, but never got around to it 🐇. I was more interested in Erwolf🐺, but it's still polite to drink from Usagi! Let's start with the aroma! Hmmm...amazake-like aroma? The aroma makes me think this is a very sweet sake! Now, let's take a sip! ❗️ It's sweet! Sweet, but not the strongest sweet. It's juicy and has an awesome slight tingle to it 🍶. Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, it's good! KORE! I drank it with a lot of Ori mixed in, so it has a little bit of umami, but it's not that strong. It is not fruity, but I have the impression that it is a sweet sake with a great balance of sweetness. I think this is a good bottle to have when you want to drink a normal tasty sake! I'm going to let it sit for a while and taste it again!

I was definitely looking forward to drinking Miyamanishiki and Yatanishiki from Hanahayo, so I managed to get them and achieved my goal for this year. ❗️ I'm already looking forward to it too much, I can't even describe how much I'm looking forward to it. Now let's start with the aroma❗️🍶 Pinapple, of course! There is no other way to describe it 🍍. No mango or anything! Just pineapple! Now, a bite! The alu feeling comes more than I expected, but the taste is sweet pineapple, almost juice ❗️ The more you drink, the more juice you get! The amino acid flavor is a little stronger this year, but the sweetness of Hachitan Nishiki is clear and delicious! This is one that I would like you to enjoy on its own, without any snacks or anything 🍶.

The annual new sake from Drunken Whale! This sake is available at 、、、、、 in the sake swamp. Come on! Here we go again this year: ❗️🍶 The aroma is a hint of sweetness in the nose. The kind of sweetness is,, sweet with a sense of al. Now a sip: ❗️ Al-ness and sourness in the mouth. The sweetness follows a little later. All of them are refreshing tastes that come and go only for a moment and disappear smoothly. The flavor makes you want to taste it again right away. It's like a drunken whale! It's so smooth! It's just like a drunken whale. I think this sake tastes better after three days than when it is just opened, so I would like to enjoy it with patience and not drink a lot. I hope everyone will be interested in the taste of Drunken Whale. ❗️

This is the first Hana-Hiyo-Yu for this season. The first Hanahyokyu I drank was also Miyamanishiki, which I was allowed to drink a little, so I wanted to confirm whether that impression was a fluke or not, so I managed to get the same 🍶. Let's start with the aroma, Oh, I think Pinappo 🍍 Miyamanishiki Hana-yosu is the most Pinappo. Anyway, it smells good❗️Smell❗️ Now a sip 🍶. Delicious 🤤As always, Miyamanishiki is delicious... The taste is more pineapple-like sweetness first, and the umami might be stronger than last year? A little bitterness follows, but I don't mind it. I would like to get a few more bottles as the hana-yori season is still going on!

I've always wanted to try a Akabu Nama Sake 🍶. I guess this is the basic type of sake. Let's start with the aroma! Sweet aroma derived from rice. Not fruity! Or rather, it's a scent that I can't compare to fruit myself❗️It's a sweet type ❓ But it's not fruit. Now a sip❗️🍶 Okay, okay! It has a slight tingling sensation, and I love the umami that you can feel sizzling on the tip of your tongue❗️Akabu-san is still better raw 🤤👍. It tastes a lot more umami than sweetness. It's a raw sake, so I don't know how it will change over the next few days, but I expect the sweetness will get stronger as it sits for a bit! Looking forward to it! 🍶 I hope you all enjoy the new Akabu sake: ❗️

First sake purchase in a long time🍶. Purchased at a local Japanese liquor store, not in the sanctuary. It's been a while since I've had tazake, and I don't remember the last time I had it, so I'm going with a fresh mind! Let's start with the aroma: ❗️ There is a sour cemedine type aroma behind the sweet aroma...I wonder.., Then take a sip ❗️🍶 Yeah, it's delicious! It's a sweet, cemedine type of taste with umami chasing after it. It doesn't have that new-sake-like tingle, but it has a freshness and a calmness to it. It's hard to describe. Well, either way, this year's new sake is also delicious! Taste change after 4 days It is still sweet and the sense of umami is the same. The cemedine-ness has completely disappeared and the taste has increased! I would recommend to let it sit a little longer than the first day 😀 🍶.

I bought an absolutely stable brand of sake from Kangiku Meikozo! I drink a lot of meh sake, but you can never go wrong with trendy sake! Let's start with the aroma! It's sweet, the usual, and, well, it's absolutely delicious, isn't it? It's a reassuring aroma that says, "It's definitely delicious, isn't it? It's the fruity 🍍🍐 aroma you all know without even saying it, Now, take a sip! Sweet! Delicious! Juicy! It's a little bitter because I'm intentionally letting the ori dance around, but this one will definitely finish fast: ❗️ Personally, I prefer the Haruhi that came out in the spring because it has a stronger flavor. It's tasty enough, though!
