Pear-like aroma pervades the nose and mouth. Tingling and spicy sake. I drank it deliciously with kamaboko.
It is my daughter's Father's Day celebration, so I will taste and drink it 🥰.
It is a Niigata sake. manufactured in May 2023.
With a white wine-like aroma, it is more of an easy-drinking junmai sake than a daiginjo. It is not too spicy, and the aftertaste is firm and slowly fades away.
Seems to go well with light white fish. It is delicious.
I get ♥s from everyone as soon as I post a record, but how do I get notified?
Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol 16%. produced in May 2023. Just bottled.
It has a floral aroma, but surprising dryness and the robustness of Junmai.
I want to eat shellfish sashimi, so I will buy some tomorrow.
I have been drinking Asakai a lot lately because I like it, and I was happy to find it in the set I purchased online.
I was happy to find it in the set I purchased online.
It has a robust flavor that will not be defeated by red meat sashimi or thick stewed dishes, so it seems to go well with all kinds of food.
I'll enjoy it with small sips.
I bought it online.
It is said to be a gold medal winner in the National Heated Sake Contest 2022, but I will take it cold.
It has an intense aroma. Delicious.
Junmai presence, tangy and spicy with a touch of sweetness. It's a well-balanced sake.
I bought sashimi at Saku and thought I'd sip it, but my daughter ate the sashimi 💦.
Local sake from Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. Alcohol 16%, Polishing ratio 70%, 100% Wakamizu produced in Aichi Prefecture.
The fruity aroma like that of ginjo-shu and the robustness unique to junmai are very satisfying. It is characterized by a clear, dry taste with no cloying flavors, as it claims to be dry. It makes me want to eat fish with strong aroma, vinegared fish, and salted fish. It was a good decision to buy them together.
Pale Yamabuki color. There is a dark sweet aroma behind the junmai sake aroma.
The mouthfeel is sweet, but as you hold it in your mouth, you get a pungent taste that makes you think it is carbonic acid. After finishing the drink, only the umami flavor remains in the mouth for a long time.
Since I bought it in a bottle, I need to put it in the fridge somehow💦 and enjoy it slowly.
I am in love with the smell of Asakai and buy it whenever I find it at the store. This time, I found it at a chain store where alcohol is cheap and bought it.
The refreshing aroma is as expected. Maybe it tastes better chilled. It would also go well with cheese and cured ham.
I was on business near the famous Yoshidaya near Nagoya City Hall, so I quickly purchased a sake that caught my attention.
When I smelled the aroma, I felt a refreshing sensation deep in my chest. After passing down the throat, the flavor melts away flaccidly, and finally the unique taste of sake lingers for a long time. It is a highly satisfying sake.
It seems to go well with strong-flavored food like simmered dishes. I want to eat bonito tataki.
I was impressed with the Asakai I drank the other day, so I bought the special Junmai this time. The sweetness comes right away in the mouth, but there is also a sharp spiciness. It is a well-balanced and delicious sake.
I liked it very much.
Purchased from Don Quijote; manufactured January 2023.
The comment on the back of the bottle reads, "In the mouth, a mix of sourness and sweetness with a hint of bitterness." This is true. I felt this bitterness in the first sip and thought, "What? I thought it was a bit bitter at first, but once you get used to it, it becomes addictive. It is delicious.
Just pouring it into a glass, I was surprised by the good aroma spreading.
Behind the ginjo aroma comes a sweetness and a bit of stimulation.
After that, it disappears smoothly, leaving only the taste of delicious water. It is delicious.
Where did I buy it? I forgot where I bought it, but I want to buy it again.
I bought it from an in-person sale at the end of the year.
It is a honjozo, but has a robust mouthfeel, fruity aroma and sweetness. It is round and easy to drink without any cloying taste.
It would go well with shellfish dishes, white sashimi, tempura, etc. Drink it in small sips.
Recommendations from my favorite pub. I had it warmed up. It has the robustness of Junmai, but it is not heavy and smooth, which is a strange sensation.
Perfect with eggplant with miso!
Tastes like soup stock. It also has an interesting sour taste.
When lightly heated, the aroma becomes stronger and the alcoholic robustness increases. It goes well with simmered radish.
October 2022 Sake. Polishing ratio 65%. I bought it at Seijo Ishii.
I wanted to drink a robust junmai sake, but this one has a refreshing taste and sweetness like a ginjo sake.
I want to drink it in small sips, but it is so easy to drink that it will be gone in no time.
I bought it in a bottle for the first time in a long time because I would drink 720ml in two days. Thank goodness the nearby Ito-Yokado has a well-stocked sake section.
The aroma is good, of course, but when I warmed it up, the sweetness increased, and the combination of the tangy junmai taste and the sweetness is very tasty.
I think it would go better with tempura or something rather than fish. I will try it this weekend.
