A bottle I bought earlier this spring and kept at room temperature for a long time. It was first served at room temperature in a wine glass. At the entrance, the aroma of rice straw was mixed with a hint of sweet syrup. In the mouth, the rounded, thick sweetness of rice is balanced in the mouth with the aroma of straw and mild acidity. The final taste is soft and clean with thick and mild acidity. Next, warm it up. It was warmed to about 50°C by boiling water in a tin chirori and served in a flat cup. At first, the aroma of mizuame (water candy) and the volume of alcohol are gentler than at room temperature. In the mouth, the sweetness of the rice, which has become more rounded by warming, and the acidity, which has been neatly contoured by warming, combine beautifully. It is delicious! I still love sake with a classical, robust flavor base that has aged well 🍶. I opened this bottle because the nights are getting colder and I wanted a warm sake after a long time, but I'm so happy that I chose this sake ✨.

It has been one of my favorite brands for a long time. I saw Hiyayogoshi, so I will have it again this year. At first, it has a sweet and sour fruity aroma, reminiscent of green apples or white grapes before maturity. In the mouth, the umami of the rice expands roundly as if riding on the fruity aroma at the entrance, while the soft but dry acidity finishes it off. Next, warm it up to about 40 degrees Celsius. The aroma of alcohol is present at the entrance, but the sweetness of the rice is layered with a candy-like aroma while the fruity aroma of the cooled sake is also present. In the mouth, the deliciousness of the rice is even thicker, and combined with the alcoholic feeling at the entrance, the taste is voluminous. Delicious 🍶. While it has the standard "sweet and clean" flavor of easy-drinking sake, it has a somewhat classical and present acidity and sharpness. The umami and volume that swells in the mid-palate are balanced by the careful mouthfeel that keeps you from getting tired of drinking it. It's still great ✨.

Wakayama series. Another brand of Ryujinmaru by Takagaki Shuzo. First of all, it is chilled. The entrance smells of maturity. The aroma of straw is accompanied by a thick, voluminous sweet and sour aroma reminiscent of syrup and cream. In the mouth, the voluptuous aroma at the entrance is fully spread by the rich, full flavor of rice, which is soon softened by the strong, well-defined acidity. Delicious 🍶. My favorite one ✨ When warmed up, the acid contour weakens in a good way, leaving a softness in the mouth full of rice umami and more rice sweetness. From the back label. Sake has been an indispensable drink since ancient times when people rejoice in the turning of the year, when they enjoy the festivities of festivals, and when they celebrate the joyous occasions of people and of the world." This is culture. This is culture at its finest ✨✨. The intersection of "nature" and "human activities" is culture, and the origin of culture is "celebration.

Wakayama series. I bought this sake because it is made by Takagaki Shuzo, the brewer of that Ryujinmaru, which is very rare, isn't it? I often visit Wakayama, but I had never heard of this one until I picked it up. At first, it has a dry, "dry" aroma, like a honjozo sake. When you put it in your mouth, the dry aroma of the first saké disappears completely, and instead, a lot of rice flavor and soft acidity spreads in your mouth, and finally, a dry sharpness comes in. It is just plain delicious 🍶. It has no peculiarities at all, it is neither dry and dry nor mellow, but just in between. If you warm it up, the final sharpness is a bit quicker, but the restrained and balanced fullness in the middle part of the bottle is even more apparent. It's a good, stable sake that you can continue to drink with peace of mind ✨.

Purchased on a trip to Wakayama. On entry, the aroma is of thick rice powder with a gentle straw-like aging aroma. On the palate, the smooth, rich rice flavor is enveloped by thick, soft acidity and spreads across the palate. The sharpness is soft but firm. Finally, we warmed it up and enjoyed plenty of gentle rice sweetness in the mouth ✨✨. Delicious 🍶. Whether chilled, room temperature, or warmed, you can trust a sake that is never wrong at any temperature.

My favorite brand of sake. Slightly fruity aroma with a soft jyoshin powder aroma at the entry with a slight carbonation. Sweet and sour aromas of gentle pears and compote mingle. In the mouth, the rich umami of rice spreads with a sense of volume along with soft acidity, and the fullness is gradually and gently quenched by the gentle acidity while maintaining its fullness. The richness of the rice flavor and its thickness naturally snaps off from the entrance to the finish in this beautiful mouthfeel ✨✨. The acidity is gentle and soft ✨✨. It's the best 🍶. This is really delicious.

I am in Wakayama on vacation. There are many great sake in Kishu, but this is a classic one that is personally one of the "sake that comes to mind when I think of Wakayama. At the entrance, a thick sweet aroma reminiscent of mizuame is layered behind a darker yogurt and a faint aged aroma reminiscent of rice. In the mouth, the thick, sweet, matured aroma felt at the entrance is followed by the rich umami of rice. At the same time, a firm, dry acidity quickly overtakes it. The sweetness of the rice, the rich umami, the moderate ripe aroma, and the crisp acidity. It is different from "a great sense of balance" in a good sense, but overall it has a great depth and breadth that shows all of the "rice". This time it is a stand-alone sake, but really it is a great sake that shows its charm only during a meal 🍶. Delicious ✨✨

I bought it earlier this spring and it stood by in the fridge for a long time. On entry, it has an acidity reminiscent of Kamishinko and smooth yogurt, and a soft, sweet aroma reminiscent of cotton candy. In the mouth, the rice flavor gradually spreads over the calm acidity. The sweetness of the rice at the entrance is now set back in a good way, with a good sharpness that spreads through the volume of the rice. This is wonderful! This is the first time I've had it, but it has a beautiful sense of umami from the rice that doesn't choose food, a balance from the entrance to the middle part of the bottle, and a good sharpness. It is very good. You can continue drinking it on its own.

The entrance is a thick pulpy aroma reminiscent of bananas and ripe melons. In the mouth, the dry acidity wraps around the side of the tongue immediately after the thick rice flavor is felt. It has a profound taste even though it is more like a "dry" wine, but it is not heavy on the palate because of the freshness of the wine. While most of the nama-shu released at this time of year are intentionally light "summer sake," I am relieved to find a nama-shu full of classical elements such as this. Once again, Shiga's sake is of a very high quality ✨✨It's delicious 🍶. I think it goes well with all kinds of food, no matter what you eat.

It's been a while since I've had sake. And drinking at home✨ The nose has a cool, refreshing, fine fruity aroma on entry. In the mouth, it rides on a light mouthfeel, with a mix of sweetness from the rice and soft, rounded acidity. The finish is round and refreshing, with just a hint of bitterness. Delicious. I have the impression that many so-called "summer sake" are intentionally lightened (i.e., thinned) for seasonal reasons, and I haven't bought any in the past few years, but this one has a nice fullness in the mid-palate and a sense of volume in the lightness. However, it is still a bit "watery" when drinking it, so it might be better when the temperature is higher! It is a good wine. In the summer, it's best to warm up your stomach with heated sake in an air-conditioned room! I personally think it would be better to drink heated sake in the summer, but I don't think that kind of environmentally unfriendly thing is going to be popular in this age 😆😆.

I've been too busy lately to drink sake at home for a long time 🍶I don't remember if this was around the beginning of April, but I bought a bottle of my beloved Banshu Ikken nama-shu and kept it in the fridge. The nose is fresh and fruity, reminiscent of green apples. The aroma is immediately followed by a thick acidity that reminds me of creamy lactic acidity. In the mouth, the fresh flavor of the rice is enveloped by the soft acidity and spreads in the mouth on a slightly carbonated acidity. The finish is acidic, yet relaxed and gentle. The sweetness and umami of the rice spread softly and gently, but with presence, as if supported by the thick but refreshing acidity riding on the fresh mouthfeel of the sake. It's perfect ✨✨. This is so delicious 🍶.

I came back to Japan. When I open the fridge after returning home and find a bottle of sake like this in there, that alone makes me happy ✨✨. It is served chilled in a wine glass. The aroma when the bottle is opened is thick and fleshy, with a slightly rich isoamyl aroma. When you let it air out for a while while turning the glass, the isoamyl type aroma disappears and you can smell the weak ripe aroma and thick acidity in the back of the glass. In the mouth, the dry, thick acidity surrounds the rice flavor, while at the same time keeping its outline in the mouth. The finish is flowing, clean, and dry. This is a wonderful wine. The overall impression is dry, and while the basic tone of the sake is so-called "dry," the umami maintains a crisp outline in the mid-part of the bottle. Beautiful mouthfeel that finally appears in the latter half of the finish. The overall sense of balance and the careful construction that you will be reminded of later. It's delicious ✨. Among all the Omachi I've had so far, this was the sake that was the least "standard Omachi flavor" in a good way. It made me think once again that sake is not about the rice, but about the construction ✨. This was fantastic 🍶.

A simple Junmai one-cup from Shinomine. This one-cup is often seen in Gosho City, Nara Prefecture, where the sake brewery (Chiyo Shuzo) is located, but I have never seen it anywhere else, so I think it is actually a rare one-cup. It is kept at room temperature, first at room temperature. The entrance is almost imperceptible, instead, the aroma is slightly voluminous with alcohol. In the mouth, the umami of rice gently and softly expands on the dry mouthfeel, and then it quickly snaps off dry. It is a firmly "dry" sake. I imagine that the umami taste of rice in the middle part of the bottle is a must for those who like this kind of "classic dry" sake. It is a sake that seems to go well with anything, regardless of what you choose to pair it with. Next time, warm it up. The rice flavor you felt in the middle part of the saké gently warms up and makes you happy ✨✨At the same time, the dry acidity comes in from the side of the tongue and finishes dry and crisp. This is wonderful 🍶I feel that this kind of classic umami type sake is only complete when it is warmed up. 300 check in✨✨ I'll be overseas for work for a while starting tomorrow, so no sake for me 😆 I'll resume posting when I get back home again.

It is a limited edition sake (supposed to be) for the sake gate association. I will have it for the first time. The entrance has a clear, gentle, sweet rice aroma. In the mouth, the clear and beautiful mouthfeel is based on a tight acidity, and the gentle sweetness of the rice is accompanied by a slight umami flavor. The finish is tight. It was the last of the amount of sake that was at the bottom of the bottle, but it was a solid taste that didn't seem so ✨. Delicious 🍶.

A senior sake lover told me about a brand from the same brewery called "Sanhyaku-nen-no-Okuribori". Another brand from the same brewery. The "Three Hundred Year Code Breaker" was originally a freshly made sake (unfiltered raw sake) that only the brewery staff could drink, while this one seems to be positioned as a sake that has been fire-aged in compliance with the rules. This is the first time to drink it. Chilled and served with a sake cup. At first, it has a fresh fruity ginjo aroma reminiscent of green apples. The aroma can be taken well even with a sakiinokuchi, so I think the aroma will spread more if you drink it in a wine glass. In the mouth, the clear mouthfeel is accompanied by the umami of rice and dry acidity at the same time. The finish is firm with crisp acidity accompanied by the fruity aroma felt at the entrance. This is delicious 🍶. I like the first bottle and would buy this sake again if I saw it ✨.

Inspired by Nara Brewery's UNDERWATER, which makes beer with No. 7 yeast, koji, and brewing water that Kaze no Mori normally uses for brewing, Kaze no Mori is made with 100% brown rice. At this point, I'm getting excited about this one-of-a-kind experiment ✨✨. Immediately after opening the bottle and pouring it into a wine glass, the aroma and color are exactly like the aroma of freshly roasted "barley" in beer, with a savory depth of flavor. When you put it in your mouth, a slightly smoky rice flavor spreads in your mouth mixed with the savory aroma at the entrance. The thick acidity of the Bodai yeast is also present, but the fragrant, grain-like aroma at the entrance envelopes the entire flavor of the sake. This is delicious! Or rather, it is very interesting 🌾. I think this sake is easy to get into for beer lovers as well as whiskey lovers 🥃. The other day when I drank Alpha 5, I was surprised at the ease of drinking and the high level of quality that made me think it was not just a kijoshu, but I felt that this one-of-a-kind Alpha 8 is really precious 🍺.
