Although the label also states that it is super dry, my impression is that it has a fruity and tasty flavor. It is very easy to drink, although it is dry with a high alcohol content.
At first, the aroma is fruity and sweet, with a muscat-like flavor. The aftertaste is long with a lingering bitterness, and the next sip just keeps on coming. A well-balanced and delicious sake.
Due to a series of overseas business trips, I could not drink sake at all! The first bottle I had in a while was Miyakanbai. Fruity, mellow and delicious. It has a refreshing aftertaste and is a great food sake!
I received this as a souvenir from Takayama, Gifu. It is a refreshing yet mellow sake with a strong sweetness and umami of pure rice. It went well with a salty side dish. It was delicious chilled, but would also be great warmed.
This year's hiyaoroshi is a repeat of Momuro Sugi's hiyaoroshi.
It has a melon-like ginjo aroma and the juicy sweetness and richness typical of Omachi. It was served with grilled salt fish and went well with it ✨.
Mid-Autumn Festival has been a long time since Banshu Issen hiyaoroshi🌕 This is the bottle that got me hooked on sake. It has the richness and gravity of hiyaoroshi, but is easy enough to drink that it sticks with even sake beginners. All of Banshu Issen's seasonal sakes are delicious!
At the end of summer, I bought a lot of hiyaoroshi.
The first one is "Kangiku" (chrysanthemum). I enjoyed it last year, so I repeated it. It has a ripe, fruity taste with a round, umami flavor. It is tasty and cost-effective.
My favorite Tasake special junmai. It has a perfect balance of sweetness, umami, bitterness, and spiciness. I often introduce it as one of my favorite sake when I am asked for a good sake.
I had a chance to pass by the Kuroryu Sake Brewery and stopped by the brewery. I bought a sake cup and this sake as a commemorative gift.
I felt guilty about drinking sake with ice, but I gave it a try. I had no impression that the sake was diluted by adding ice. The sake is well chilled and refreshing, with a well-balanced aroma of cucumber, umami, and sweetness. The technique of designing this sake with the assumption that it will be served with ice is brilliant 👏.
This is the first Miyakanme. Fruity and gorgeous, with a clean and crisp aftertaste. This is delicious 😋.
I found a special distributor, so I want to try the whole series.
Elegant sweetness, refreshing acidity, and a clear taste with no clutter. It is a well-balanced and delicious sake with a sense of body, but not too light.
Sweet and fruity sparkling sake. An easy-to-drink sake that appeals to everyone. A perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness. The company's goal is to create a sake that you will want to drink as a toast and then again at the end of the meal, and they have achieved this goal beautifully.
The standard Hirotogawa special junmai. Served with eel bento. It is a sake with the flavor and sweetness of rice, so it goes well with almost anything that goes with white rice. Stable taste.
