hanpukai no yatsu Mild aroma and grape-like sweetness The mouthfeel is kyoho, gentle and robust, with a heavy sake quality. Good cohesion with slight acidity at the end. It's nice because I let it sit for a bit after opening. It is a leisurely stand-alone drink 🍶.

Sunburst, which can be liked or disliked due to its acidity. The aroma is a gorgeous fragrant acid citrus. It is a "Dochakuso" lemon. The mouthfeel is creamy and sweet at first, with a lively acidity in the mid-palate. The final part of the bottle is very cool and leaves a pleasant aftertaste. I'm not a big fan of acidity, but I personally like it a lot. It seems to be effective when you have a cold, since it gets stuck in your throat (white eyes).

The one that Ane-san gave me. It seems to be natural yeast? I trust Tamagawa, so I kept it in a cool, dark place. The color is lemon gold. The aroma is lactic acid and caramelized old sake-like. There is no old aroma at all. The mouthfeel is very heavy and thick with a sweetness that makes you think it is a liqueur. However, there is nothing unnatural about it, and it soaks into the body in a straightforward manner. The caramel sweetness and bitterness, which is the entrance to old wine, gradually spreads. However, there are no off-flavors and it has a high degree of perfection: heavy yet beautiful. It is delicious cold, but it is also good warmed.

Previously, Du Lai was a dry type The aroma is mildly sweet with a hint of cinnamon. It has a firm fizziness, and the taste has a big sweet citrus like navel orange and a mild creamy sweetness, like apple pie. The Jungin standard is completely free of bitterness and miscellaneous flavors, a benefit of ice-temperature production, perhaps? Very tasty at room temperature. I think it's the top two newcomers of the last two years, along with Yamazan...

I have the impression that they are very good at storing things in the snow. The alu and acidity are angular and mellow, but the flavor is well defined and the lemon and lactic acidity are a good match👍. I think it's the best of the Shinshu hanpukai so far, but it's an optional one.

Not Mr. Nakanori, but apparently Mr. Nakanori. The aroma is mellow, like a cross between grapes and yogurt. There is some bitterness in the mid-palate, but it has a good pull, so it is easy to drink. Good with food.

I opened the bottle and let it sit for a while, so I'll drink it properly to see if the balance has improved. Aroma of tropical fruits with a hint of perfume. A little bit of graininess, like a recent Hana-yosu. However, although it has a lot of sweetness, the mouthfeel is light and free of any unpleasant taste, probably due to the high rice polishing. It is easy to drink with a lingering aftertaste that softly disappears and a slight bitterness that does not cause stress. I think it is better to leave the bottle open for a while. I will enjoy to find out. The color of the label was the same as Tojo Yamadanishiki of Jikin, so I put them side by side.

I thought I missed it this year, but then I won it in one of the subsequent drawings and got it 🎯. The scent is mild and slightly floral It has a deep sweet taste with a slight bitterness, and as the temperature rises from cold to hot, the deep sweetness naturally permeates the body and is very pleasant. I think it is my favorite Jungin-type sake.

pear-loving person The aroma is mild Japanese pear. I mean, I'm cooking spare ribs right now, so I don't know how strong that is. ‼️🤣 It tastes like a soft but firm Japanese pear, followed by a slight sourness. It is just like drinking Kosui Pear. I regret that I only bought one bottle because it's so good 😇

It should be the flagship of Kuheiji 🙄. The aroma is mild and grape-like, pulled by the image of Kuheiji. The bubbles are firm and refreshing, but with a delicious sweetness, and the fleeting disappearance at the end is pleasant 👍. I think it would be better to leave it a little longer 🤲.

LOL, it's a delicious one from the four seasons 😘. The scent is mild and floral The mouthfeel is mellow and delicious with a floral aroma, and since it has aged for a few days, the bitterness and corners have been removed to my liking. I still like Shiki at room temperature.

It's senkoku😳 The aroma is lactobacillus like a sake yeast yeast yeast, with a hint of woody aroma and a little bit of Shinmasa. It is easy to drink, though more on the acidic side, with a hint of sweetness and graininess. It may be the closest to champagne among sparkling sake. Of course, it goes well with meat dishes due to the contrast of shades, but it may also be good with light dishes such as carpaccio 😘.

A gift from Nochi 🙏. the first time for me 💕 Good balance of mellow and refreshing. It is my favorite type of sake as it is rather mellow. It has no horns, but the dynamic attack makes it easy to understand and delicious. Cool it well and enjoy it quickly. ‼️

I think this is probably the first organic Yamada Nishiki from Jikin 🤔. The aroma is rounded and has a strawberry-like sweetness, probably because it's been sitting for 2 days. The mouthfeel has become more cohesive, and it's easier to drink without the stinginess and cloying taste that bothers me when I open my mouth. It is easy to drink.

I finally bought a brand that I had been paying attention to for a while. I'll start with the Tokujun. The aroma is modest, but there is a balance of acidity and umami, somewhat like Jikin! The mouthfeel is quite complex, and it's light to medium-bodied. The bitterness towards the end of the bottle extends the length of the bottle, so it would be best as a mid-meal sake. The nose has a mild rice sweetness. I would like to drink it with hot pots.

I chose Omine because I was in the mood for a refreshing drink. The aroma is mildly floral or The mouthfeel is slightly effervescent, sweet and refreshing, and with the bottle image, it has the atmosphere of a ramune. I was surprised that it did not lose to Ippudo style bean sprouts, which I made at random and are very flavorful & spicy 🫢.

It's the evening breeze that I aim for every year👍 The aroma is like plums and berries, and the sweetness is balanced by the acidity. The attack is slightly effervescent, with dark strawberry and peach sweetness. This year's is a bit more bitter, but it's still delicious! I bought two bottles and one of them will be home-ripened. ❤️

This is Sake Mirai by Sohno-Kangiku, which I have been waiting for soberly since early spring. The sake rice is probably via Eiko-Fuji? The aroma is mildly tropical. It also has a berry-like flavor. The effervescent mouthfeel is refreshingly sweet and accented with a graininess. When the temperature is raised and the effervescence subsides, it becomes a very sweet sake, and the graininess is integrated with the sweetness, making it a mild mellow sake. I prefer the latter!

Hanpukai no Toyoga This is a mellow, unpasteurized sake with a mild aroma and taste. It is fruity but also rich, with a balance closer to mellow sake. We prefer it at room temperature rather than cold, so we think it is best to drink it at a higher temperature slowly.
