The palate is a fruity type, but not that sweet. As it passes down the throat, it has a fruity taste, but with the distinctive flavor of sake. It does not smell of alcohol.
This is a Niigata sake with a strong brand name. I have the impression that most Niigata sake is dry, but this one was not dry and very easy to drink. This is my subjective opinion. It was served with horse mackerel.
For my last sake of the year, I chose Kubota Junmai Daiginjo, not Hyakusyu Senju or any other sake, as I have not been drinking Kubota recently. I drank it very cold. I think the taste is quite strong. It has a strong aftertaste that lingers long after it is gone from your mouth. It also has a slight bitterness, so I would not recommend it to those who don't like sake.
It tastes slightly mellow and tangy at the same time.
The third glass of sake I had two glasses of sweet sake, so this time I tried a glass of dry sake. I am not sure if it is spicy and refreshing, but it has a unique taste of sake. The taste softens a little when it reaches room temperature.
It is 90% fruitiness, which is similar to fruit wine, and is highly recommended for those who don't like the Japanese sake taste! It is easy to drink, so be careful not to drink too much. I recommend it because it is as fruity as Hououmida.
It is a gift. I drank it for the first time.
It has a fruity taste. After that, the taste disappears quickly. There is almost no aftertaste. I don't think it is difficult to drink. Even those who don't like it may find it easy to drink. If you are used to drinking it, you may find it tasteless. However, this dry taste is quite good. I had it with hokke.
This is Takasago's Yamahai Hiyoroshi, which I bought on my trip to Hamamatsu last week. I have heard that Shizuoka sake has less fruitiness, but this one has a much stronger muscat flavor. As the label says, when you put it in your mouth, the muscat flavor spreads after the tangy sake flavor. It is a seasonal sake, so you can't drink it after the season is over, but if you are interested, please buy it while it is still available!
The thunder god label is cool. It was a thunderstorm today, so I guess it's just right. It has a clear taste, not a difficult one, but refreshing, tangy, and spicy!
I like the summery label. The taste is lightly acidic and has a muscat flavor. Although it has a muscat flavor, I think it is a little difficult to drink for those who are not used to sake. This is just my subjective opinion.
I bought it because of the label. It tastes great with its acidity. When you put it in your mouth, you feel a strong acidity. After that, a fruity, melon-like taste comes out. It tastes like fruit and melon. It is probably a type that can be clearly divided into likes and dislikes. If you can't get enough of sourness, this is the one for you.
I received this as a Father's Day gift. The bottle is finally opened. The bottle is made to represent the highest quality in a simple outer box with a solid dark wood-grained box.
At last, the Junmai Daiginjo I had longed for...! The aroma is very strong, and at room temperature, the fragrance is almost overpowering.
The taste is simply the top of the line of Kuroryu, such as Ichikyorai. It tastes like a refined version of Kuroryu. I drank it cold, but when I put it in my mouth, it was almost like water. It has a sharp taste only when it goes down the throat, and a slight fruity taste comes out through the nose. The taste changes considerably depending on the temperature. I have written a lot about it, but all I can say is that Kuroryu is the best. I would like to try Ishitaya and Nizaemon. If possible, I would like to compare three kinds of Kuroryu.
The acidity is quite strong. Since I have recently been drinking quite a lot of sake with a strong fruitiness, this was fresh and good for the first time in a while.
I drank it because it came up in the ChatGPT search system of the SAKEWA app. The search condition was for the most fruity sake.
I did not think it was as fruity as Houou Mita, but I think it was very easy to drink. It may be too sweet for some people. But it is delicious.
Bon Junmizu Junmai Daiginjo.
It will be served at the end of this year.
Compared to Gold, it has less fruitiness, and when it goes down the throat, it has a tangy taste that is typical of sake.
It tastes like sake.
We eat Osechi from 31st of the month, so I served it with beans and herring roe, which is a local dish of Tohoku.
It is a daiginjo Shizuku Shibori from Kikusen.
It was quite sweet. It has a strong fruity taste and is soft on the palate, making it easy to drink.
The tangy feeling when you drink it is really instantaneous, so I recommend it to those who are not good at sake.
I recommend it to those who are not good at sake.
However, if you don't like sweet sake, you might want to refrain from drinking it.
I like Koryu, so I wanted to buy some to drink. It is so reasonable and great that I wish they would sell it at convenience stores. The bottle is stylish and of course it tastes like Koryu. It tastes like a Kuroryu, but I'm not so sure.
