Sugata斬れすがた　特別純米生酒

Refreshing and crisp. Slight scent of wood...? A slight scent of wood...? What is dry sake? I thought so, and bought a bottle. Sake degree +8 But what is it? It is sweeter than I expected. At first I thought it would have a light aftertaste, but it has a lot of umami aftertaste and a sweetness that is not spectacular. The acidity also lingers. I was imagining a dry wine with a lot of alcohol and a tingling sensation, but that's not the case. I looked it up and found out that the tingling is the one with high acidity. Is the alcoholic one a cheap sake? 😅 To begin with, sake level is determined by the amount of sugar, right? This one looks like it has a lot of sugar too. But is it a plus.... Yeah, but is it dry without "sweetness"? At any rate, I'll have to buy one with even higher sake content to see what dry is. Sake, it's so deep!

Good evening, Mr. Nono 😃. We just had a +12 dry sake and it was refreshing but fruity with a hint of sweetness 😋. The taste also changes depending on the conditions and the combination of the two 🤔It's a very deep experience 😆.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. Thank you for your comment: ☺️ Oh, +12? I guess the sweetness is faint when you get that far 👀. I'll be looking for more dryness next time. The fun never ends 😆.

Milky taste? 🤔 When I opened the bottle, I felt a little bit of a whiff, but I didn't feel that much carbonation while drinking it. At first I felt it was a little lackluster, but maybe the temperature was too low? (I put it in the regular refrigerated room, not the vegetable room.) After a while, I was able to enjoy it, with lots of gentle flavor and a moderate bitterness in the aftertaste. Like hot springs, sake is special when it is cloudy.

Anyway, it is calm. Gentle sweetness and acidity. Mellow and well-balanced. The aftertaste is the delicious taste of rice. Since we had been drinking a lot of nama-shu, we decided to try something different and chose yamahai. It's not bad if it's mild, but I think it's more satisfying if it's easy to understand and gorgeous. I think it's more satisfying 🙄. But the aftertaste of the rice was so addictive that I kept coming back for more. I tried it at room temperature, but I thought it would also be good hot, so I warmed it up. I have a cat tongue, so it was only lukewarm, but I think it tasted better. I remembered my grandfather used to drink sake with an electric warmer.

Gorgeous aroma and taste. Sweet and quite sour. The aftertaste is clean...but the sourness leaves a pretty strong impression? 🤔 Apparently, they use a rose yeast called Princess Michiko, made at Tokyo University of Agriculture. I found it for sale at a booth of Tokyo University of Agriculture at a rag market and bought it without thinking. I bought it at the booth of the University of Agriculture at the rag market...I don't mean that I bought it unintentionally, but it was 3,300 yen for a four-pack, so I honestly had a hard time deciding. (You can buy a good one in a bottle 😅) I thought I drank Aizan recently, so I checked the record and found that Houou Mita Black Phoenix was Aizan. I see that Hououmida Black Phoenix is also Aizan. By the way, the price was 3,960 yen for a bottle. Well...if I knew the taste of both, I would buy the bottle. I am not that picky. But I wanted to try Raifuku, and I was curious about the rose flower yeast, so I had no choice 😂. I saw a student from the University of Agriculture working hard (?) in the strong winds to sell it. They were selling it, but it's sad that I can't really recognize either the University of Agriculture or Princess Michiko from the label. Oh, but if people who see it can recognize it? I don't know, but there's something dreamy about a yeast made in a university! ✨

🍍Tropical✨🏝️ This is... the taste of a tropical beverage from a Hawaiian restaurant 😳🍹. Pineapple maybe? I am totally mystified as to why it tastes like this from rice. ... This is another one I drank during the year and failed to post😅. Now that I think about it, pineapple! I wondered if it was because it was a daiginjo? 🤔 It was delicious and I would like to try other Kudokutei as well.

Purchased at a liquor store in a shopping mall near my parents' house (tourist area). Not the rarest of rarities, but a pretty good selection ✨. I couldn't buy a bottle of sake at my destination, so I had no choice but to choose this one from a selection of Yongo bottles. It's famous, but have you ever had it? I think it was delicious. I think it was delicious. I don't remember the detailed taste of the sake I drank when I was having fun😅.

Is it good as a food sake with Osechi? I bought it. I think it was good! When we drink it at a gathering, it's a lot of fun, and it's not about what it smells like or tastes like, it's just "It was delicious! That's all that's left. LOL! But anyway, here's the record 📝.

Grassy aroma. Refreshing acidity. Is this your first time to say "grassy"? 🌱 Sweet, but surprisingly refreshing, with a clean aftertaste. You can drink as much as you want. No, the sweetness leaves a certain amount of residue on the palate, but not a persistent sweetness. But it is not a persistent sweetness. On the second day, I felt a strong creamy sweetness. I felt a strong creamy sweetness. I don't know how Black Phoenix is because I don't know the regular label of Houou Mita, but I enjoy it. ... I opened this at the end of December? (I'm not sure about the New Year's Eve and New Year's 😅) I'm posting this just in case there was a draft left in my notes. The vegetable room, which was so exciting at the end of the year, is now lonely. I think I should go shopping soon!

Hmmm... I see! I heard that this one won't be sold until 12/26. The reason is "so they don't drink it before the end of the year", they say. LOL! It was a bolt out of the blue for me, as I had bought sake on 12/22, hoping to get a head start before it got too crowded. I already have enough sake, and my fridge is already full... I got it safe and sound👍✨ I've been patient and opened the bottle on New Year's Day. I'm sure this is how it's supposed to be.... It tasted as good as I imagined, and it was no longer a Mito Komon-like relief. The bottle design was lovely, and I should have taken more serious pictures! 😣

Calm and mellow. Well-balanced system with mild sweetness and moderate bitterness. Good sharpness. This is a food sake. I really wanted to buy another Mutsu Hachisen label, but this was the only one they had. I guess many people buy sake for New Year's? Should I have gone to buy it a little earlier? I think so, but it's hard to find the right timing because I end up drinking it when it's in the fridge.

Nama-shu has a taste and aroma typical of nama-shu. It has acidity. There is a cool aftertaste. I wondered what kind of apple flower yeast was used. I bought it. I don't know much about yeast, but I wonder if the sweetness + coolness is related to the yeast? 🤔 I also felt a traditional sake-like sweetness and thought it was a bit different from the fruity route.

Peach, lychee, bitter. Cotton candy type sweetness. I was interested in purchasing this wine when I saw the information about its arrival at a local liquor store. The "tasting comment" reprinted from the official website was something amazing, and I wondered what it tasted like. I wondered what it tasted like. I was wondering what kind of taste it would have. 😅 Ah, but cotton candy type ≒ pancake? Creaminess of baking powder... ? Baking powder is creamy? (I don't know about creamy for this drink...) Where are the pine needles and roses...? (confused) By the way, the aftertaste is more bitter than sweet. Is this because I don't like bitter? 🤔 (I can't drink beer) Looking at the end of the sentence, I wonder if the "tasting comment" or something like that was written by a sommelier? I see, so this is how it's supposed to be~. I could not feel all of the sommelier's expression, but it was interesting to drink. Sake is interesting!

Mineral sensation? There is a cool, green apple-like coolness. Refreshing and cuts through quickly. After enjoying a square of sweet Oze no Yukidoke, this refreshing taste is very good. Mutsu Hachisen is going to have a variety of products in December. Enjoy ☺️✨

Thick and lumpy. ...Huh? It sounds like a catch copy of lotion😅. Taste is fruity royalty. Melon-like sweetness? It's not too sweet, but has just the right amount of acidity to balance it out. I thought it was wonderful that it didn't lose its freshness even when paired with a meal. I wondered if blue cheese would go well with the sweetness of the wine, It was not a bad match, but it was somewhat disjointed and far from a marriage.

It is a safe and reliable drink. It is easy to find at supermarkets and convenience stores and is the best tasting sake there is. If you can't go to a liquor store but still want to drink sake, this is the sake to buy! This is the sake I would buy if I couldn't go to a liquor store but still wanted to drink sake. The taste is fruity? The flavor is fruity, but the aroma and flavor are gentle, not strong. I guess it's like a table wine. For now, when I'm not in the mood to be adventurous and make a mistake, this is the sake I choose. This is the kind of sake I like.

Pear type? Refreshing and gorgeous. A little bit of a splash. I once had a bottle of HIZIRIZM, a test brew from the Seishuzo Brewery, and after that I ordered a few bottles from the Seishuzo Brewery and drank them. I remember they were all delicious. This time, I bought Kanto-no-Hana at a roadside station, so it seems to be available normally in Gunma. I wonder how it is in Tokyo? I would like to buy it again because it is something stable and tasty.

Is it hard to get? It seems to be an alcoholic beverage. A layman like me cannot tell how valuable it is just by looking at the label... I often see Jikin when I search for sake on the web. I see it, but I wonder if Jikin itself is a hard-to-find sake (like Tasake). (like Tazake). I don't know much about that. Sorry 😂. I got it as a gift at camp, and although I enjoyed it, I thought "I don't know what it tastes like right now", so I left a little bit of it and brought it home 😅. I'll try it again, Sweetness. Bitterness. A little sourness. It tastes a little characteristic, like a flavor I know, but I can't quite put my finger on it. I thought it was a well-balanced sake.

Karuizawa Hatsuchi City Yard purchase, 2nd bottle. Asamatake Junmai Ginjo 100% Hitogochi from Nagano Prefecture Refreshing and a little fruity. Some acidity and bitterness. The aroma is subdued (or is it "mild" in the sake sense?). The taste is light, with a hint of water. I thought it could use a little more umami. But when I paired it with Japanese food, I felt more of the aroma and the umami of the rice. It is a wonder. Maybe it was because it was freshly removed from the vegetable room that I felt it was so light. In my opinion, it tastes better when it is at room temperature.
