Fruity sweetness with a translucent flavor. Little acidity, pear-like sweetness, and mild bitterness. The mild bitterness slowly fades away. It is light in the mouth, but the lingering umami lingers for a long time. Very delicious sake!

I didn't expect to find it at my local supermarket, so I bought it immediately without hesitation. I couldn't believe my eyes for a moment, but it was definitely the first Reimei I had ever seen. The spiciness and alcohol taste of the honjozo sake may be different for different tastes, but I like it. I imagine it might be like sake from the olden days (although I have never had sake from that era). I imagine it is like an old-fashioned sake (although I have never had it in that era), but sometimes drinking Honjozo has the same taste as eating butter cream cake.

Chochin 2022 SUMMER JUN 3BY Junmai Unfiltered Nama-Zume We had this at our favorite izakaya, which we hadn't visited for a long time. The label has quite an impact. I had an image of Chochin as having a strong flavor and being good for warming up, but this sake was easy to drink and refreshing, just like a summer sake. It was like a cream soda without the sweetness.

Miyakanbai Junmai Ginjo Autumn Time Oh, it's very strong! This is a review of the previous one, Impressions compared to the regular Junmai Ginjo The taste is deep and delicious! The spiciness is also a little strong. An autumn sake with the feeling of the coming of autumn! I could finally drink it with a sense of the season! Cold 4.5 Normal temperature 4.5 Warmed 4.6 Carbonated 4.7 Heated, the aroma of rice is weak, The taste of rice is strong. Well balanced sweetness, acidity, spiciness and bitterness, It is dependably delicious! It is best to drink it chilled at about 10℃, If it is too cold, the mildness and mellowness will decrease, If it is too cold, the mildness and spiciness will be less noticeable. On the other hand, it is good even if it is chilled to the perfect temperature, It's a wonder that carbonation is so good even when it's cold. Refreshing, juicy, and perfect 👍

Nabeshima Hidden Sake (also known as Ura-Nabeshima) We first commercialized this sake about 20 years ago. We collected Junmai Ginjyo sake that had been "Arahashiri" (the first sake with ooze) and "Gouge" (the last sake after pressure) for about one month and commercialized them. Originally, this collection was blended with Izumi-Nishiki (a pre-Nabeshima brand) regular sake. However, a distributor in Tochigi advised us that this was a waste and that we should commercialize it, so we thought about how to market it. Unlike regular Nabeshima products, selling it as junmai ginjo would require more time to assemble the sake, and the quality would be more mature than regular junmai ginjo, so we decided to label it as junmai ginjo, which is a ginjo-style sake. We were honestly hesitant to use the lord's name in mirrored letters on the label, but we decided to use the characters for Nabeshima in mirrored letters. The label was initially labeled "Ginjo-zukuri" on the right shoulder and "Kakushi-zukuri" on the left side of the label. This type of mirrored sake label is now common, but Tomikuchiyo Shuzo's "Nabeshima Hidden Sake" was the first to do so. The success of Ura-Nabeshima, the Nabeshima Hidden Sake, prompted a distributor in Tokyo to ask breweries in Shimane and Yamagata to produce products with the mirrored lettering, and from there, products from other breweries began to appear one after the other.

Shinshu Kamerei Junmai Sake Hitogokochi  It has been a long time since we have had Shinshu Kamerei. I used to be able to buy it consistently at my local liquor store, but I really don't see it anymore. This regular sake was also promoted from the regular shelf where it used to be placed to the middle of the main fridge? I was able to find it in the middle of the main fridge.  It has a sweet melon-like aroma. It has a strong, fruity sweetness and umami. The aftertaste is smooth and disappears quickly. The taste is modern and easy to drink, exactly what is popular nowadays.

HIRAN Victoria The rice is called "NIKOMARU". I have tried various polishing conditions, from 90% to 25% milling ratio, This time, the rice was polished to 2.5%. The sweetness is softer and clearer than ever before. The result is a sake with a soft, clear sweetness that has never been seen before. Using the "Namahashimoto" method, the sake has a soft and clear sweetness that has never been seen before, The sake is not only light, but also has a subtle, intonated flavor, It is a sake that makes you want to savor it slowly and savor it by itself.

Shinigami Kamofuku Shuzo Alcohol 15% Shimane It has a strong botanical aroma with a tatami mat feel, and a great color with a punchy bancha and brandy taste. The mouthfeel is surprisingly lighter than expected, with a strong dried fruit sweetness and acidity, with a moderate bitterness and no heaviness in the overall flavor. There are several breweries that brew "ancient sake" based on ancient brewing techniques, but this matured sake has a nice, refreshing taste that is noble and less habitual, which is great.

What are the characteristics of Tokugin and what are your actual impressions of it? Jyushiyo, a sake sold only in Yamagata Prefecture, is known for its fruity taste and aroma, and Tokugin is no exception. It has an elegant sweet taste and is a noble sake that goes well with Shatobu steak or Ooma tuna fatty tuna.

Hyogetsu" is named after a local tea house. It is characterized by a refreshing ginjo aroma reminiscent of white grapes, with a pleasant acidity and a clean, refreshing taste. It can be paired not only with Japanese cuisine, but also with modern Western cuisine that makes the most of the ingredients. The calm taste produced by storage at a constant temperature is comparable to that of "Kame", the highest quality sake of the same brewery.

Daiginjo Ryu" is the result of applying the aging process of wine to sake, creating the now common expression "daiginjo. The fragrance is gorgeous, but the aging process has created an overlay of apple, tropical fruit, and melon aromas, and the taste is concentrated with a fine, angular, mellow, and soft flavor. It has a taste of another dimension that is distinctly different from that of sake, while still retaining the taste of sake.

Special Junmai Yamadanishiki Unfiltered Nama-Shu with No.8 Yeast We tried to use yeast No. 8, which is rarely used. The reason for this challenge was that it seemed to match the quality of Shikishima's sake. It has a refreshing, fresh taste with a characteristic acidity and a subtle citrus aroma. We recommend drinking it chilled rather than heated. The alcohol content is 18%.
