This was also purchased at Takigawa. There was a No. 4 bottle, so I bought that one. It was a stable mellow, sweet and delicious taste. I wish they would make the No. 4 bottle regular.

On the way back to my parents' house, I stopped by Takigawa and bought this. I was torn between the Toyo Bijin and this one, but decided to go with this one.
First of all, it had a great firmness, just like a fanta grapefruit. It was empty soon after.

I couldn't forget the Shuho I had 4 or 5 years ago and had been looking for it for a long time. I happened to stop by a liquor store and found it and bought it immediately.
It was so fruity that I was excited from the first whiff, and I was excited even before drinking it.
The fruity sweetness is well balanced with umami, and the lingering aftertaste is crisp and clean, just like Shuho.
It's so good! I want to drink it every day.

Eiko-Fuji's summer sake.
It has a gorgeous fruity aroma and a white grape-like sweetness. However, it is not too sweet and wears off quickly, just like a summer sake.

I bought this bottle in the basement of Nagoya Takashimaya just in case. I had bought two bottles at the sake brewery exhibition and had no intention of buying it, but I had heard that Houraisen's beauty is the best, so I bought a small bottle after much hesitation.
As a result, I am glad I bought it. It is slightly sweet and has a clear taste. As the name suggests, it was a beautiful sake.
I wish I had bought a small bottle because it was not raw.

This was also purchased at the Japanese Sake Brewery Exhibition at Nagoya Takashimaya.
It has a great micro-fizzy taste. It is like grapefruit juice. The aroma is modest, probably because it is junmai (pure rice). It is fresh and well-balanced.
It is true what they say, "He who runs after two hares will not catch them both.

Purchased at the Japanese Sake Brewery Exhibition at Nagoya Takashimaya. I got in line first thing in the morning.
It was a bit light, with a chili taste and a slight bitterness typical of Kuheiji, but after 3 or 4 days from opening the bottle, the bitterness changed to a sweet flavor, like a fruit juice. It was still a delicious bottle.

I bought this sake at my usual Tokyu basement because I wanted something different from my usual sake. From the label, I thought it would be a white wine-like drink, but it was quite sweet and robust.

I told them I wanted to finish with something sweet since the refreshing continued, and this is what I got. It's definitely sweet. It's also slightly carbonated, like an ambassa.
