The combination of the spicy, dark flavor of the pork knuckle with gochujang, ketchup, and whatnot, and the light sweetness and bitter hop flavor of this drink was a nice touch. But this lychee feeling is delicious.

AfusuAfruge No 1 2017純米酒
叫ぶ蝶
The 2017BY afs has been stored in red wine barrels for 3 years, bottle-stored in a warehouse, and aged in ice for 8 years. It has a sweet caramel aroma from the aroma of hojicha (roasted green tea) and vanilla aroma as the temperature rises, which gives a good impression. I had imagined it to be rich and sweet like a noble sake, but to my surprise! Sour (lol). I tried a blend of old and young with a little bit of sweet Hizirizm (sake degree -100, acidity 6.0) squeezed from the sake mother (yeast), and found it to have a light sweetness, a deep astringent taste, and an acid profile. The blend with the rich sweetness of Hon Mirin Golden Honey Sake was the best.

Hi Jay & Nobby! I'm a fan of the "quirky" types, and it's a great feeling when you get to the point where you like the combination of temperatures and blends, but the end result is often an Asahi Hawk 😂.

Iwakikotobuki黄金蜜酒 本みりん
叫ぶ蝶
I was told that mirin is drinkable, but for a while I used it only for cooking. The other day, I read an article that said mirin and shochu cocktail was a standard drink in the Edo period (1603-1868), so I gave it a try. The rice shochu is made by Miyazumi Brewery, which brews Kakuraku. Genbu is a 40% Alc hard liquor with a sweet aroma of rice, and the rich sweetness of mirin is blended into it. We prefer Genbu:Kogane Mitshu = 2:1 on the rocks, and Kogane Mitshu on its own is so delicious that it could be called a kijoshu. A toast to the brewery and all the people of Namie.

We have developed an innovative assemblage. We blended fresh, sweet, and delicious Tokujun Unfiltered Nama-Gen at a temperature of just under 30℃ with chilled Jun Daigin. The result is a soft, full-bodied sake with a fruity aftertaste, and at the same time, it is delicious.

Jay & Nobby Good evening. Last year I drank my first unfiltered raw sake in not so good condition, so this year I am enjoying the true flavor of the sake 😊.

叫ぶ蝶
Junmai-Nikuhashi with a rice polishing ratio of 60%, a little fizz, perhaps due to bottle-firing? The aroma is clean and refreshing with acidity and a hint of syrupy sweetness. The taste is medium-bodied with a light sweetness, and the minerality of the medium-hard water gives it a sharp profile. This one also has a pleasantly sharp finish.
Japanese>English
叫ぶ蝶
This is delicious. I am glad that I picked up this bottle after much agonizing while freezing in the huge ice refrigerator at the liquor store. While there are some first pressing and hi-ire, I was attracted by the fact that it is made with white malted rice and the acidity is fully expressed, while the rice polishing ratio is 80%, so the rice is large.
The sweetness is well balanced with the amino acidity, so the acidity does not stand out against the strong lactic acid aroma, and the overall taste is refreshing. Immediately after opening the bottle, there is a slight feeling of gas and it is lightly cloudy. It would be good with carpaccio of sea bream.

We had this one last year too!
The carpaccio of sea bream would go perfectly with the sourness of Narumi's 😙.

Compared to Kutouryuu Dorokuchi, this one is sharper and slightly less sweet, and tastes better. However, I like the softer taste of Kutouryuu Dorokuchi.

I don't know if Kuroryu Doroguchi is sold out this season or this one is sold out this season, but in any case, I like this sake. I have just realized that this sake is good warmed up. It tastes great at all temperatures. A blend of hot and cold sake is also great. The soft sweetness is light and finishes with bitterness and a solid kick at 18% alcohol.

Good morning, screaming butterflies 😃.

Hello Jay & Nobby! It may be sweeter than J&N's recent taste. It's not as rich as you'd expect, but it's soft on the palate. It's easy to drink, but it's high in alcohol, so if you get carried away and drink it too fast, you'll get hit 😂.

It is a little lunchtime drink about a week after opening. Exquisite Hirotogawa. The carbonation and sweetness that has been properly drained off combine to give it a slightly cloudy, calpis-like taste at the end. Everything you want in a nigori sake is well balanced.

Shisora純米吟醸スパークリング水玉ラベル
叫ぶ蝶
A self-congratulatory project in which I drank sake with my friends and gave them unopened four-packs of sake one after another while sharing my knowledge with them. The following four bottles were selected: Hanakaze (1) Hirotogawa Nigori, (2) Banjo Kotobuki Shiboritate Nama-shu, (3) Murasaki Uchu Mizutama Label, (4) Miyazumi Nigori, (5) Tasyu Usu Nigori, (6) Mikotsuru Dry Oiragarumi, (7) Sogen Shiboritate Nama-shu, (8) Manjusen Kijoshu. The impression of Hanakaze was excellent. The six nigori varieties were each served with the top clear and cloudy components, and the Banjo Kotobuki and Murasaki Kuu were particularly favorite. The first time we tried Manjusen's kijoshu, we were asked, "What is this? I don't know! I've never heard of it! Miyazumi and Manjusen were empty, and the remaining 1 gou of Hirotogawa was left, while Banjo Kotobuki and Murasakyu were given away as souvenirs.

The sweetness is restrained, balanced by umami and acidity, with a touch of bitterness that gives it a citrus-like flavor. The sharpness is outstanding.
It is good cold and refreshing, but at around 18°C (64°F), it is softer on the palate, and the umami is more spread out, which I like. It is also good heated, and at around 25°C (45°C) with some cold sake added, it has an indescribable flavor.
I prefer to drink chilled sake in a wine glass or a flat sake cup with a slightly higher temperature range.

Repeat confirmed, too good.
One week after opening the bottle, it has good carbonation, a moderate but light sweetness, bitterness, and alcohol, and is very sharp and delicious.
At 2,420 yen per bottle, it's the best value for money. I'm worried that the world will find out about it next year and it will become hard to get.

Tokimeki Ward is a limited edition of 150 bottles of Fukuro-hozuri, tobin-tori, 35% polished rice, aged 3.5 years in the brewery, aged 2 years in house in ice temperature, unfiltered, raw and unfiltered, etc.
It has a beautiful golden color and no bubbles. The aroma has a cool lactic acidity and a slightly oily isoamyl Alc with a slight graininess. The taste is as one would expect from a 5 year old wine! The hardness of the water has mellowed and it is glossy and smooth. Soft sweetness, delicious.

It gives the impression of being sweeter than last year, but it is delicious. It has a soft sweetness and excellent crispness, with a bit of roughness that is typical of new sake. Junmai Ginjyo Black Label is sharp and may seem a bit bland, but this sake has a soft mouthfeel with a good amount of sweetness. I especially like the sharpness. It does not have a strange sourness, the aroma is moderate, the bitterness is moderate, and the alcohol is natural and sharp! It is the best.

Green pepper with sansho - yuzu and aged mackerel boiled in miso arrive with this sake. Enjoy the pairing of the cedar barrel aroma of the shizen-shu with the sansho-yuzu aroma! Or perhaps the message is, "Ascend to heaven with the amplification of the umami of Shizen-shu and mackerel! Or perhaps the message was, "Enjoy the amplified umami of Shizen-shu and saba!
For some reason, in a mackerel eating contest, Kesennuma aged mackerel and a certain Kinke mackerel that happened to be on hand were stewed in miso, and the winner was Kesennuma. The spicy chili pepper is wrapped in the mild sweetness of the natural herbs, and the result is delicious.

This sake is dangerous. It is unbelievably delicious.
My personal No. 1 in the world of al-soze Shiboritate Nama-no-Harazake is Shijibarikazuru, but it is comparable in deliciousness to it.
It reminds me of the Raku no Se Yamahai Yamahai Unfiltered Orikarami. The citrus and pineapple taste is probably due to the balance of the high alc (sweet and bitter) and acidity.

It is a clean muscat with a low sweetness.
However, I personally wanted just a little more sweetness, so I gave it time at room temperature for about a week, but it didn't spoil me with cool beauty.
The ama-ai nama sake arrived at the right time, so I combined the two, and it was no surprise that it was delicious. The elegant sweetness added to the sweet and sour juiciness, and finally the grape aroma was released for a refreshing finish, I was very satisfied with this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

This is very delicious.
I was impressed that such a sake existed when I experienced nigori for the first time, then I was excited to see how strongly carbonated it was, and then I heated it up, aged it, shook the bottle to remove the carbonation, and so on.
The perfect amount of carbonation that does not interfere with the flavor and the moderate bitterness in the latter half of the bottle are wonderful. The balance between the soft sweetness, bitterness and carbonation is superb. The fact that it is fresh and can be drunk within 4 to 5 days after bottling may be a good thing.

In some circles, the search for this sake is called "hawk hunting," but today I went to a certain place with no intention of hunting, but rather with a casual feeling, and I unexpectedly came across this sake.
It has a more gorgeous banana aroma than standard sake, a light sweetness, and a refreshing acidity at the back of the mouth.

What a herbal tea the brewing water is! I am looking forward to it.
The aroma is earthy at first impression. There is a spicy atmosphere, and of course, herbs can also be felt. The taste is light and pleasant with a calm sweetness.
Paired with ashitaba tempura sprinkled with mountain salt and powdered sansho leaves for herbaceous complexity.... I was going to say, "I don't know..." but I'm not sure.
Each is delicious in its own right, so I'll call it good.
