This is my first packaged sake. After taking a sip, I was convinced it was my favorite type of sake. Muscat aroma, slight gasiness. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and sharpness.
It has been a long time since I have tasted Mimuro Sugi. It has a fresh, rancid ginjo aroma, a sweet umami taste, and a gentle acidity. It is a low-alcohol, easy-drinking sake, perfect for summer.
Gorgeous aroma like tropical fruits, sweet and juicy. Maybe I'm being pulled in by the label image, but I think it's best when drunk chilled on a summer night 🌠All of Kangiku's Ocean series are delicious.
The aftertaste from the sweet aroma like white grapes is dry, acidic, and astringent. I am not sure if it is a mineral taste or a beautiful bitterness, but at any rate, it is delicious and I am sure I will repeat it.
Kikuhime's regular sake. Purchased at Yamadanishiki no Sato in Yoshikawa. As described on the label, it is a mellow, umami-guchi sake with an aged golden color and a caramelized taste. Personally, I think it is best served warm and goes well with blue cheese.
It's been a long time since I've had a bottle of Kaze no Mori. This is the bottle that got me hooked on the sake swamp. This balance of fruity, umami and bitterness is exquisite.
It has a full-bodied sweetness, umami, and moderate acidity, and the low alcohol content of 13 degrees makes it easy to drink. This is one that has been a hit for a long time!
This is the first Junmai Ginjo from Nabeshima. Fruity and chilled gasiness. It was light right after opening, but more delicious and voluptuous on the second day ✨.
It is fresh, juicy, and has a sweetness that is typical of chrysanthemum while being fire-aged. It was so delicious that I emptied a bottle in no time.
My first KAWABU.
Sweet and fresh aroma like melon and peach. It has a smooth texture with a slight sourness and bitterness.
A few days after opening the bottle, the bitterness combined with the sourness to give it a fuller, richer flavor that I liked.
My first spring sake, Black Dragonfly.
The Blue Dragonfly in summer and the Red Dragonfly in fall were both delicious, but this one exceeded my expectations. It has a strong umami flavor, clean and smooth, with just a hint of sourness and bitterness.
