たけさんたけさん
大倉、嘉美心などの濃厚旨口で日本酒にハマり、いろいろ飲み漁った結果、今は料理を引き立てる、香り控えめな食中酒をよく飲んでます。 甘くて香りの派手なお酒は、食前酒としてたまに飲むぐらいです。

I ordered the wrong sake, and what came out was a summer sake at a time of year when hiyaoroshi is at its peak. This is what you would expect if Katanozakura made a summer sake. It was not the typical sour-sweet summer sake, but rather a refreshing summery version of Katanozakura's straightforward sake. It's not the usual sour-sweet summer sake, but rather Katanozakura's head-on sake, made refreshingly summery and clear. It has a strong umami flavor, and is like a slightly carbonated version of the original sake. It is a seamless sake that can be enjoyed on its own when thirsty, or with any dish.

It has a unique taste with a well-balanced combination of umami, acidity, dashi (Japanese soup stock), and a piquant spiciness. It is unique but not assertive or peculiar, making it easy to pair with food. The spirit of not going with the latest fads and following one's own path is something that is similar to Okura's.

The combination of Fushimi and hiyaoroshi (mildly mellow and mild). Fushimi sake is often referred to as "women's sake," and it has a soft and gentle flavor from start to finish. The taste is not bland or dull, and it finishes with a crispness. It is a perfect match for food without asserting itself.

#Drinking at home The mild and gentle flavor of hiyaoroshi comes first, followed by a slight dashi (Japanese soup stock) taste. It finishes with a tangy finish. It has no unpleasant taste or peculiarity, and can be easily matched with any dishes. It is a gym-like sake that is characterized by its lack of features.

#Drinking at home It is unusual that the spiciness comes to the forefront from the very beginning with a moderate sense of sankai (mountain waste) and sourness. It is full-bodied and deep in flavor, but the spiciness insists from start to finish, so it is not coherent. It's not bad, and it would go well with simmered or grilled fish, but the rarity is what draws my attention to it. It would also be delicious heated.

I had been curious about this sake since I saw it at Haretoke, but never drank it. I didn't have high expectations for it, but there was nothing else that intrigued me, so I decided to try it. The label said the brewery was Hakurei. Oh, I like Hakurei. It's cheap, tasty, and has a bit of character. I had high expectations for this one. It has a barrel-like feel, but not too much, and it is unusually sour and unique for a barrel-type sake. It goes well with richly seasoned simmered dishes. It would also be delicious heated. In any case, it is a sake that produces the best synergy when served with simmered dishes and delicacies.

The hiyaoroshi. It has a mild and mellow umami taste that comes and then disappears. I have not had many Hiyaoroshi, but I think they were a bit more umami.... No, this is delicious in its own way. It is a wonderful sake as a food sake that smiles with any kind of food. I'll drink it again when I see a different tribe.

Although it is a daiginjo, it is neither perfumey nor has a scanty aftertaste. If you drank it blind, you would probably think it was a junmai ginjo. I don't know about the juwajuwa on the label, but it has a good balance of umami, bitterness, astringency, and acidity, and is neither too robust nor too mature, with a core but not overly ostentatious, a rather mild umakuchi. It has a good balance of umami, bitterness, astringency, and acidity, not too robust and not too mature, a core but not overbearing, and a slightly mild umami taste.

The flavor comes quickly with a gorgeous sourness and gradually disappears with a mellow taste. It finishes with a tangy finish, so it never gets dull. Thanks to its gentle but tasty acidity, it is delicious on its own, and when paired with dishes ranging from sashimi to obanzai, the synergistic effect makes it even more delicious. Similar to Wataya, Hidakami is very reasonably priced.

The aroma and umami are subdued, and the sharp pungency comes out in full force. At the end, a rough texture is left along with the pungency, and a desolate landscape comes to mind. It may be similar to after drinking strongly carbonated water. It is better to drink it with food because it is too stimulating to drink by itself. It goes well with sashimi, but it is also good for tightening up dishes such as simmered meat or meat with a strong flavor.

It is slightly dry but has a mild umami flavor, and after the umami flavor disappears, it is spicy. It is not flashy at all, and its crisp aftertaste is perfect with sashimi. It is also good with gently seasoned obanzai. When I come to Matatabi-do, I usually start with this and sashimi.

#Drinking at home The aroma is mild, and the slightly acidic flavor is mild, just like hiyaoroshi. It finishes with a slight bitterness and spiciness. Not only is it mild, but it also has acidity, but it is not too much, and the end result is a perfect Ishizuchi hiyaoroshi. It is delicious.

Gentle and soft, with a slightly dry finish, it is a perfect example of a mildly umami sake. It lacks the impact of a stand-alone sake, but it is easy to pair with any dish and never gets old.

#Drinking at home From the moment it enters the mouth, it has a slightly effervescent taste and a firm, well-balanced flavor of acidity and sweetness, with a short aftertaste that disappears. There is a slight bitterness that clings to the tongue, and the flavor is thick. The taste is that of a vivacious woman who can talk to anyone without being sarcastic. Chiba's sake is not often seen in the Kansai region, but I found several varieties at an antenna store in Hankyu Umeda Station, so I will go back to buy some more. Hopefully, they will open a store outside the ticket gates.

#Drinking at home I drank this sake a long time ago and thought it was too watered down to drink again. A friend gave it to me, so I decided to try it for the first time in a while. It has more flavor than I expected and does not have a watered-down feel. However, it has an excessive pungent alcohol smell and the aftertaste is very cheap sake. I think this is a cooking sake or fin sake.

It is refreshing, but the base is well supported by the tart flavor that is typical of summer sake, making it a natural water for adults that can be drunk without hesitation. Summer sake is surprisingly easy to drink! This is the kind of flavor that goes well with summer! I think there are some summer sakes that are more assertive than others, but this one has a summer sake feel to it, and it is wonderful in that it is not intrusive and naturally makes you reach for your glass. I'm going to buy this one and take it home.

It is mild and reserved, but has a mild umami flavor, and surprisingly finishes with a tangy, firm spiciness. It is not flashy, but it is a well-made food sake that you can drink with peace of mind without getting tired of drinking it and without choosing the food with which to serve it. This is the kind of sake I like to keep on hand for drinking at home.

It is slightly sweet, but has a mild flavor that is typical of hiyaoroshi. From the start, the umami and moderate ginjo aroma spread quickly, and then it goes through at top gear, finishing with a subtle bitterness. It has a good balance of brightness and mellowness, and can be easily matched with a wide range of dishes.

#Drinking at home The most royal of all royal roads. It has a strong umami, a moderate aroma, a spicy finish, and a moderate bitterness that adds richness to the umami. It is a Yokozuna sake like Takanohana, which is neither too strange, nor too flashy, nor too plain, and will stand up to any dish. Chiyomusubi strong sake should be like this.

#Drinking at home The slightly sweet but mild flavor and piquant spiciness from the start make it clear that it was made to go well with fish. The aluzoe seems to have been added to bring out this spiciness, and there is nothing cheesy about it. The fact that it is inexpensive is also wonderful. It seems to go well not only with fish, but also with gently seasoned obanzai.
