I saw this bright red Otafuku in the liquor store... and my eyes accidentally locked with those of Toyo Bijin... 😓. The description said, "It gives the impression of being quite dry, but when you actually drink it, you will find a surprisingly mellow umami flavor..." So I inadvertently bought it again 💰. It's a gorgeous, fruity, sweet wine.... It's not just dry, it's "very dry," so I was curious to see how good it was! Long preamble... Here we go! The aroma is not that harsh, softly fruity and nice ✨. The moment you put it in your mouth, the sourness and bitterness are quite strong 😅. The sweetness is slightly sweet with umami, but the spiciness dominates the palate and goes straight down your throat, leaving you with a sharp finish. It's a little too late to say this, but I heard that it has a sake degree of +15, so it's quite a big volume. Yes, the sign was true... To be honest, this is how I feel as a lover of sweet sake, but I think it is not only dry but also has a good umami taste and is very drinkable 🍶. I think it can be very tasty depending on the meal it is served with 😊.

Good evening Joker 😃. I'm attracted to this face and the big dry 🤗. Fruity, aromatic and dry is the type we like 😋 to see the signage 😋 I'd like to try it!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby ✨ I was struck by the smug look on your face lol. It has a certain umami in its dryness, and unlike the usual light dryness, it is a rich dryness 😆. I really hope Jay & Nobby will drink this one!

The mornings and evenings have become cooler and much more comfortable 😊. I'll make love to you The label on the back reads "the ultimate food sake"...yes, let's taste it with all our hearts! The aroma is fresh and unobtrusive: ☺️ When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the umami and the acidity at the same time. It has a good sharpness with a hint of sweetness and bitterness ✨. On its own, I personally thought it was quite acidic, but with a meal, it goes perfectly ✨✨. This is the ultimate food sake 😆. I love to make love to you! By the way, if you let it sit for 3 days, the acidity softens a bit and it can be enjoyed on its own (no, it's a food sake 💧)

Today's first drink outing... or rather, only the first lol! This time we will be drinking a restaurant-only sake, Kuroryu's Crystal Dragon 😆. Actually, I had a bottle of Kuroryu Jungin before this one, but it came in a tokkuri (sake bottle), so I couldn't take a picture of it 💧. So next time, I asked for a glass ❗️ and also a bottle ❗️ and they brought it ✨✨Thank you! And that's the end of the preamble... The aroma is discreet but refreshingly fruity and clean. The mouthfeel was very smooth and crystal like the name ✨✨ I can taste the sweetness and acidity, but then it finishes crisp with a nice bitterness 😋. Very easy to drink and clear impression ☺️ I made love to you and enjoyed it! By the way, Kuroryu Jungin is a little drier than Crystal Dragon, and while you can taste the umami, the aftertaste is more acidic and crisp. I think there are different tastes here, but I personally prefer the Crystal one 😋.

Hi ma-ki-😃 It's really a beautiful drink 🍶. The name sounds strong, but the gap between the delicate taste and the sake is what gets me lol.

The label also exudes an aura of deliciousness ✨. The aroma is gorgeous, and the taste is fruity and mellow. The mouthfeel is slightly gassy, and the rice flavor and sweetness spreads juicily ✨✨. The sourness that soon comes through the nose and leaves a clean aftertaste 🎵 Mmmmai😋😋. Great balance of sweetness and sourness ✨✨

The lady at the liquor store recommended Dai-Shichi's Nama-Hashiroshi Nama-Hara Sake🍶 to me. The aroma is subdued, with a robust acidity that comes from the moment you take a sip. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu and a soft sweetness that spreads in the mouth 😊. It has a deep flavor created by the strong acidity that only a sake brewed with a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast yeast can produce. The aftertaste is a lingering sourness and bitterness that gradually fades away. I have the impression that it was a little heavy for me, a lover of sweet and fruity tastes, but if you like it, you will love this sake 🍶.

The black bottle and label are cool ✨. And who can read the "100" in Hyakushun at first sight? Spring is pretty good too lol. No, I'm not being stingy, yes 💦 the typeface is cool 😅 Immediately after opening the bottle, you can taste elegant fruit aroma reminiscent of melon and peach ♬. I also feel a gentle gasiness, but the soft mouthfeel, delicate flavor, and acidity are too exquisite to drink without hesitation 🍶. A few days later, when you open it again, the aroma is mild and the gasiness is almost gone, but the taste is more mellow and the sweetness is enhanced... No, it's really delicious 😋. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes sweet fruity wine✨ I'll make love to you and make you happy

The last one of the day is another stable "Daimine" 🍶. Muscat-like aroma softly wafts through the nose. Slightly fizzy and juicy with a sweet and sour taste with the umami of rice and a refreshing acidity ✨. Very smooth on the palate and goes well with a meal 😋.

I chose "Purple Space" 🍶 for my first drink outside today. The waitress poured me a glass of it and when I put my nose close to the glass, I could smell the gorgeous aroma ♬. At this point, I knew it was going to be delicious 😆. The taste of course did not disappoint, with a rich sweetness followed by a mild acidity that comes together nicely and finishes off the taste ✨. This is delicious 😋😋. I love the galactic railroad on the label ✨✨ I love the purple space ♬♬

When I asked a friend of mine for a Yoshida Kurau before, he gave it to me as a souvenir ✨. The name is a play on the word "Yuho", which comes from the town where you can see UFOs and the ears of rice 😊. The aroma is like apple or pear, but the sweetness and umami of the rice spreads in the mouth, and the moderate but firm acidity tightens it up. It is slightly dry and has the richness that only a pure rice sake made from the traditional sake brewing method can have 🍶.

Here it comes, the best sake from COSPA 🍶. Fruity with a strong aroma and the sweetness of rice ✨. Very gentle and smooth on the palate, with a refreshing aftertaste due to the acidity 😊. Very easy to drink and tasty...this quality at this price is extraordinary 💧. I think it was 1045 yen including tax... I love it as a food wine

This is Morishima-san 🍶 that I opened a few days ago. Let me be the first to say, it's delicious ✨✨. Modest aroma, gentle ginjo aroma, and fresh mouthfeel with a hint of gas: ☺️ Delicious‼️ Very clean and clear on the palate, really nicely balanced ✨✨. The acidity in the aftertaste is also beautifully crisp...applause 👏. My wife loves this one too 🍶. I noticed I was down a gazillion 💧.

Today, we will be having a new unfiltered, unpasteurized, raw sake series from Eikofuji, Shogen: ☺️ First of all, the aroma is gorgeous and fruity, reminiscent of pineapple and sweet honey. The mouthfeel is very nice, with a great balance of ginjo aroma and umami, typical of Eikofuji✨. The refreshing sweetness is quickly followed by a sourness that really pulls it all together... Oh, I could drink this all by itself 💦. Sure enough, I finished it in the blink of an eye 😆. This one is sold all year round, so if you see it, please visit ❗️ or ‼️

I'll make love to you! I wonder...the color of the label and the appearance has a sense of dignity. ☺️ It's been a few days since the bottle was opened, so the aroma is a bit muted, but it still radiates a mellow fruity flavor 🍏. The taste is still the same with a balance of sweetness followed by a refreshing sourness and a slight bitterness. Slightly dry impression, clean aftertaste, and finishes nicely 🍶. I think it goes well with Japanese food, but of course it is delicious on its own ✨. Please serve it well chilled, it's very sharp. 🗡️

Hello, Joker! Kananotomo of Saku-sama has a very elegant appearance and is very tasty 😋. I remember it was one of Saku-sama's most gentle and well-balanced sake until the aftertaste 🤤. Definitely a great sake 😁.

Whenever I find an AKABU, my hand starts to gnaw on it 😆. I know it's going to be delicious even before I drink it, but let's start with the aroma... What an elegant aroma! I don't know if it's melon or muscat, either way, the aroma of high quality fruit gently spreads ✨. It's not that strong, but it has a soft sweetness and gorgeousness 😆 ☺️ The juicy flavor and sweetness spreads quickly in the mouth, and the moderate acidity that comes after is exquisite 🍶. The subtle umami of Aizan and the light aftertaste is just perfect ✨. It was a satisfying AKABU 😋.

Hi Joker 😃. The word AKABU is a strong pull 🤗. Both before and after the drink are delicious 😋. Why? Because... Because it's AKABU 🥰.

Jungin no Kirami ✨, Haneya's signature product, has an unobtrusive yet gorgeous aroma that is irresistible. The rice flavor and fresh, refreshing acidity that spreads in the mouth, along with a gentle mouthfeel and a slight fizzy sensation 🍶. It has a gentle flavor that can be served as a food sake or on its own 😋. I love that you can drink this fresh sake all year round...FUMIKIKIKU SAKE Brewery is doing a great job!

Kaze no Mori's standard "Omachi 807" 🍶 has a rich, mellow taste that is unique to Omachi. The rich, mellow flavor unique to Omachi is delicious 😋. I don't usually drink sake with 80% rice polishing ratio, but this is one that shows me that rice polishing ratio is not the only thing that makes a sake taste good ✨. The sweet and gorgeous aroma of muscat-like fruit softly wafts through the nose, while in the mouth, you can't help but feel the slight effervescence that is unique to Kaze no Mori: ☺️ If you let it sit for a couple of days, the gassy feeling fades, but the taste becomes milder, which is also a good 🙆. The balance of flavor, sweetness, and acidity is very good, and then you realize it's gone......💧

When an acquaintance of mine was going to Kanazawa, I half-way forced him to ask me to buy some Yoshidagurau ❗️-❗️-❗️-‼️. I asked him to buy it for me. ☺️ Thank you! Yoshida Kurau" is a new brand by Yoshida Sake Brewery, which brews "Tedorigawa" ✨. They started on November 1, 2021 🍶. It uses 100% "Hyakumangoku No Shiro" sake rice from Ishikawa Prefecture developed in 2020🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾. It is characterized by the minerality and clear taste unique to this sake rice, and even though it is fire-brewed, you can feel the gasiness and drink a bottle of it refreshingly. Yes, here's the info on the internet👍 Now let's drink it 🍶. One sip and it's "mmmm! The refreshing acidity and mild flavor is exquisite, and even though it's fire-brewed, you can feel a slight fizz ✨. The alcohol content is 13%, so it's very easy to drink, but you can still taste the umami and sweetness. Almost no bitterness...or is it? I don't feel it, but it was a very tasty and high quality sake 😋. (I drank it in one day, so it's in the past tense) Thank you for going all the way to the brewery to buy it for me ✨✨. Please do it again lol.

Yes, it's Senkori's sparkler, appropriate for this late summer season 🌻. It may seem a little late, but I don't know about that, I'm going to drink it 😋. I'm sure you're curious about the question on the back label, "Do you have any unfinished business in the summer? I wonder if there was anything on ......? Well, I can't remember much, so let's just drink it anyway 🍶. It doesn't have much of an aroma, but it has a hint of muscat or green apple...it's a refreshing aroma that will make love to you. On the palate, it's fresh, sweet, sour and juicy with a clear and transparent mouthfeel just like the bottle and label✨. The balance of sweetness and acidity is perfect 😋. This is very easy to drink and gobble up. ❗️ I personally prefer to drink it well chilled ✨ Thank you for the end of summer sparklers 😊.

First of all, the name is very stylish, isn't it? I looked up the meaning of the name and found that it comes from a comment made by Oku Yoshiyoshi, a court musician at the Imperial Household Agency during the Taisho era (1912-1926) that "sake making and playing musical instruments are both sacrifices to the gods in the same way. I see... ☺️ I will taste it with that in mind 🍶. This sake is so famous that I don't even need to say what I think of it anymore, but I dare you to say... it's delicious 😆. The fruity aroma of gentle white peaches and melon, the deliciousness and juicy sweetness of the rice with no cloying taste at all ✨✨✨ is truly wonderful! The soft mouthfeel disappears cleanly and elegantly leaving a gentle aftertaste... It was a quintessential "instrumental Masamune" 😋.
