The aroma is not that great. Tingling, with a bitter aftertaste. We had sushi today, and this might be the best sake for a meal among those we compared today.
Tastes like muscat or lychee with reduced sweetness. The bitter aftertaste becomes stronger. Taste of peach and apple at the end.
A few days after opening the package... It's so good! The range of taste is unbelievable. I️ will repeat the same taste.
I went to the trouble of buying an ice pick from Daiso to open the bottle. About a minute after he took the ice pick away from his hand and said, "It looks fine.... Give me the ice pick again," he exclaimed. I gave him the ice pick and opened the bottle without any spills. What a relief!
The aroma was like a lactic acid bacteria drink. The sweetness is moderate and goes well with food. We had it with grilled meat and kimchi. It is refreshing.
Because of its high alcohol content, it should be served on the rocks. It seems to have lost the cemedine-like feel of potato shochu, or awamori. And it is sweet. I think it is just the right sweetness.
I️had a tip that it would sell out soon, and I️just happened to know that it was sold at Tokyo Station, so I️go straight there on my way home from work. I️ purchased it without incident.
Lemon squash. I had it on the rocks. It's refreshing, light, and very good. I had it with real green curry. It was delicious ✌️.
I had it cold later, but I think I prefer it this way. It's so refreshing, you may want to skip the ice.
A few years ago, when I was a "connoisseur" of light, dry sake, I was given this sake at a bar and enjoyed it so much that I looked it up on a website. I didn't end up buying it at that time, but I was in the midst of my recent sake boom, and when I looked in a liquor store, I remembered "Oh, this is the sake I looked up in the past! I remembered it and bought it.
The first sip tasted like the sake, but there was a fruity aftertaste. Oh, it's delicious. It also has a slight gaseous taste. Excellent as a food sake. Goes well with Japanese food.
It has an aroma like a barrel wine, and when you drink it, it is light and tactile with a tingling sensation on the tongue. It has a sweet taste, but a refreshing sweetness. You can't help but go on drinking it.
At an udon restaurant for lunch.
At first bite, I wondered if it was dry. But when combined with the meal, it mellows out and is delicious. The owner really thinks things through, doesn't he? I guess it's natural. Haha.
I noticed that all the customers around me ordered Machida Sake Brewery.
My husband bought this on impulse after hearing an anecdote about HIDEHIKO MATSUMOTO.
The aroma, alcohol, and sweetness have been suppressed, so it is light, light, and easy to drink. It has a tangy lychee taste, but I think it is good as a food alcohol. It does not interfere with food and is delicious on its own. Looking forward to the next one!
The cream bread aroma is new to me and the taste has an apricot feeling. The second sip has a raisin feeling that I don't like, but it's not that strong. I wonder if it goes well with meat or something, it tastes similar to wakaze's The barrel. I like this one better. It's addictive.
A few days after opening the bottle. I drank it with maitarashi dumplings and it went really well!
This is the third bottle after drinking another kind of Niimasa. Shinsei is a sour sake. I feel a plum-like taste in the base. ^_^
A few days after opening. The sourness disappeared and it tasted lychee-like.
Sweet. I felt the sweetness of rice in the first bite, but the aftertaste was muscat. Second bite, I also felt a white chocolate sweetness.
Even after opening the package, the taste didn't change at all, it stayed delicious!
Fragrant. Lychee? Clear taste as rumored. We had the skewers as it goes well with oil pasta. It seems to shed the oil easily. It's very good. As expected.
