Oak barrels in Nature Township
Coloration is quite light and almost transparent. The strong woody aroma is sweet like bourbon. Maybe new oak?
The mouthfeel is not wine or whiskey-like, but rather natural hometown sweetness + wood astringency and a hint of sweetness.
I have the impression that the flavors are not yet mixed and change in stages.
To be honest, it's a bit different for those who are not used to drinking it. It would be safe to drink it as a highball.

I bought what I wanted at Inamaya in Chiba station, and then dropped in at "sakebase" in Nishi-Chiba, the next station! I bought this sake at the next station, "sakebase" in Nishi-Chiba.
It seems to be limited to two stores. There were two types of sake: fresh and hi-ire, so I went with the hi-ire one I liked.
The gas pressure is high, so be careful when opening the bottle.
The aroma is fresh and sweet, like a Japanese pear. And still young green melon.
The fizzy and crisp mouthfeel was like a rainfall. The acidity is effective, and it has a beautiful aftertaste with no clutter, just as it claims to be jun-dai.
I noticed that it was made on the lees, so I mixed it up, and the silky mouthfeel and richness came together to create a thick, robust, drinkable sake.
The bottle is interesting because it is a special bottle that fits in the door pocket of the refrigerator.
There is no labeling requirement on the label on the label! but it's on the bottom of the bottle. It's so hard to take a picture after opening it🤣.

The one you've never seen at the kettle shop.
The aroma is yogurt.
Quite big and sweet even in the supernatant. When mixed with lees, it has a silky mouthfeel and a slightly deeper richness.
It is similar to Sanuki Kuraudei. Is this one a darker drinker?
Japanese>English
Rigel
I've been drinking quite a bit of nigori this term🙆🙆
Slightly dry but with sweet aroma like peach and red apple.
The mouthfeel is also sweet with juicy fruits. The lees-derived bitterness and richness are light and do not linger, and the clean exit with acidity is impressive.
I bought too much today, I need to drink it with gusto 🤣.

I think the advantage is that you can share the sake you want to post with others.
The initial lot of Niimasa, at first, was Honma water. Oke-sale water.
I am deeply moved that this became a popular sake.

Good evening Rigel😊.
Is there something wrong with your profile?
I feel an itch for the trend that it is hard to criticize even if it tastes bad 🤔...

Good evening, bouken🤗.
If you can say what you want to say, it's good to say it with gusto ‼️
I think it's right not to stress, especially if it's your hobby👍

I bought a Hiran for the first time in a long time.
It's a new political feeling that is closer to citrus fruits such as lemon and GF, and it's low in alcohol content and easy to drink!
I would recommend it to beginners because of the difficulty of obtaining it and the price 🙄.

Mr. Emikin.
Mild and creamy sweetness.
The mouthfeel is slightly refreshing and fruity, and the richness of the aftertaste is well balanced and to my liking without the bitterness that has been present in the recent Laughing Four Seasons!
The harmony between the brightness of No. 9 and the sweetness of No. 10 is easy to understand 🥰.
Japanese>English
Rigel
It's the laughing four seasons before it became an old-fashioned kimoto that I had to put down for a bit.
The aroma is moderate, a hybrid of dry and ripe.
It has the mellow umakuchi taste that we are looking for in a Shojiki, and the sparkling No. 9 is also present.
The lingering finish has a good richness, but the way it comes off clean is very high perfection 🤲.
M-Chi said that rice with high ears is good for maturing 😌.

They have a new name for Daiginjo.
The aroma is soft and sweet, but has a spicy alcohol taste at the end of the day!
The mouthfeel is light and sweet, with a lingering aftertaste that is cut off in the middle by the swelling umami and richness derived from the rice.
It is delicious on its own, but I think it is more suitable for eating.
It is not good to drink it too cold, but if it goes up to room temperature, it will lose its balance a little, so it is better to drink it at a temperature of about 5℃.

This is also nigori sake. Moreover, it is a natural sparkling sake that is not gas-infused.
An explosive type that takes quite a long time to open.
The mouthfeel is fruity and sweet, almost like a liqueur. After 2 days, it gets a little dry, so it would be good on the rocks.

This was also at the New Year's party. 3 years ago, I was going to buy it, but I missed it, so I finally got it.
It tastes lighter than the Jikin. The tropical flavors are modest, but they gradually open up and the fruitiness appears.
I was reminded once again that -5°C is good for storage, but you need to wait a little longer to drink it.
Japanese>English

At the New Year's party for old men in Sakewa Kanto. 2023 could not be bought, but 2024 is the year of the tiger and I'm going to get it!
It is consistently delicious. It tastes good even if you heat it up. I think I emptied it in less than an hour 🤔.

The last true New Year's Eve is at Purple Yatagami, which I won at JSP 😌.
We will have it at New Year's Eve at an izakaya that we have come to Chiba to visit often🤗.
It's a crown and it feels gassy. Good thing I had a professional open it for me🤣.
The aroma is ripe kiwi, the mouthfeel is slightly effervescent, slightly dry fruit and a bit musty!
A new Masa that will cheer you up. Probably won't get it again 🤣.
Have a drunken New Year's!

Happy New Year, Jay & Nobby 🎍.
It was a pretty dry new administration. I also thought it must be quite a difficult balance as it seems to be a patchwork 🤔.

The last one of the year (planned) was given to me by my uncle, Kinkame-chan, who has become a pure large 🐢.
Personally, I think of Kinmon-nishiki as wild. By making it 39, it has the best balance of wildness and sophistication. The combination of this with the drinkability and mouthfeel typical of Shinshu sake makes it look the strongest 🙄.
It's been a little over a year since I came to Chiba: ‼️
Tomorrow New Year's Eve, I'm going to a CD event at an izakaya that has become my favorite place here, so I might post a ridiculous sake there 😗.

The aroma is subdued, but the sweetness can be felt well even when the sake is cold.
The acidity is high and the fullness is good.
You can enjoy it at various temperatures.

It has a beautiful aftertaste, but the quality of the sake is firm like Yamahai!
I will drink it with hot pot 🍶.

A good mix of vanilla, lactic acid and melon, the aroma I liked when I started drinking sake.
The mouthfeel is a bit dry, but the umami can be felt.
The richness that appears in the mid-palate is not bitter and is well integrated, and the lingering umami lingers on the lower jaw with no unpleasant taste at all.
It's been a while since I've hit the jackpot.
The problem with Tsuchida is that each bottle is completely different in type, so you have to drink it to know for sure...
It is best served cold at room temperature!

Is it a special sake from Miyajima Sake Shop?
Moderately sweet apple aroma.
It is fire-aged, but has a chili-chili-style effervescence and a dark sweetness like apples and peaches. The fullness that appears in the middle part of the bottle has a lingering aftertaste that slowly fades away.
It has a strong drinking experience, so it may be served warm (⚪︎).
