It is lighter than Tasake's regular series of special junmai sake. Easy to drink. This is delicious. I would like to drink it again when I have a chance!
Tokutei Yumachi that has been sitting in the fridge for six months! Too smooth on the palate. I am happy to feel the delicious rice. This is delicious but hard to find...
Hello, Yuu-san!
I see you are drinking a very nice bottle of Jikin-sama 🤤.
I'd love to drink it, but I can't get my hands on it 😅.
I'd like to drink it someday 🤤.
Wadaya original in Oimachi. This is very tasty. The fizziness was quite strong and the lid blew off when I opened the bottle. I highly recommend it. It is a shame that it is an original sake.
Sake of the month for June. This sake is made from Mie sake rice "Kami no Ho", Mie yeast, and Mie brewing water. It is soft on the palate, but has a slightly bitter, cloying taste on the finish. The aroma is almost imperceptible. The sake itself is light. I would have liked to taste a little more of the rice. The bitterness and miscellaneous tastes at the end are strongly felt.
Imanaya GUITO! vol. 5 May Sake. Very sweet. The alcohol content was kept as low as possible to give it a gentle sweetness that will make you reach for it when you want to relieve stress or fatigue. It is indeed a good choice for a late night drink while watching a movie. But what to do with the sashimi afterwards?
Sake of January. We opened a bottle of Jikin, which we had kept in stock. It is fruity with a hint of sourness. The taste is stable. Sashimi of Shirakawa sea bream and steamed mahata with sake were served as snacks. It is the best.
Good evening, Yu!
I noticed this late, so I took the liberty of congratulating you on your 400th check-in 🎉.
Jikin-sama is a great milestone ⤴️
Let's continue to enjoy drinking more and more 🤗.
This is my first time drinking the new modern version of Sentori. It has a fuller flavor than the old type, or rather, it has a feeling of lingering on the tongue. But it is Sentori, so it has a fresh flavor. I would like to try the raw sake as well.
Kurei often produces fruity sake, but this one is dry and rough. However, it still has a mouthfeel that is typical of Kure, and it is different from legacy dry sake. It tastes like it is made with rice, and the rice is well received. It is a manly sake that can be drunk in a manly way.
Sake of the month for April. This sake focuses on "astringency". But it is not too astringent and has just the right aftertaste. I tried it with hot pot, but I wonder if it would go better with cream cheese or something...? It's challenging and interesting.
Sake from Nara. I bought it because of the name. You can feel the umami of rice. But the aftertaste flows nicely. I paired it with beef and burdock tsukudani (food boiled down in soy sauce), but it did not lose its power. This is a sake that I would like to keep on hand on a regular basis.
Sake of the month for March. A clear and clean sake. It brings out the best of Yamadanishiki. However, the impression is a little mature. If we wanted, it could have a little more character.
Schwarzwald liquor. Fortunately it didn't overflow when the bottle was opened, but it was quite fizzy. The sweetness of the rice is light. I guess it is not an aperitif, but rather a food wine. I thought it would not go well with simmered dishes and maybe ethnic food. (I haven't tried it, but...).
The sake rice is Gohyakumangoku. It has a fresh aroma of ori. It is dry and has an alcohol content of 17-18%, so although alcohol is felt, the refreshing taste seems to be the core. Sashimi was black sea bream and tripe purchased at Nezu Matsumoto.
Sweetness, umami and acidity are elegantly balanced. Sake to drink on a sunny day to view cherry blossoms, even though it was raining today. Let's keep half of it.
It was introduced as a drink like a cream soda, and that is exactly what it is. For some reason, the aroma, the sizzle, and the flavor reminded me of a cream soda. Definitely a delicious sake. If you like bubbles, this is a must-try!
It is not as sweet and comes straight in. It doesn't have as much flavor intensity as the regular Yamama line. On the contrary, I thought it was just right!
New line of Wind Forest. This was highly recommended. It is even lighter than Kaze no Mori. The freshness of the shwash is still there and too delicious.
