It has a core, yet somehow rounded taste with a hint of rice flavor. Although it is a sake, it has a somewhat distilled flavor. It has a spicy taste that comes to the throat, but it is not that strong, and the taste is well-balanced. The overall impression is that it has a slightly strong peculiarity.

Purchased at a sake brewery during a recent visit to Karatsu, Saga. The aroma is slight. The gentle sweetness on the tip of the tongue lingers slightly in the throat, and then slips away as if it were water. It has a simple taste with no corners. This is summer sake! The taste is really crisp and refreshing. It tastes even better when chilled. It was a pleasure to chat with the staff at the restaurant.

It has an elegant aroma that spreads softly in the mouth, almost flowery. Personally, this may be the first sake in which I can taste such sweetness of rice. The taste is very rounded and gentle, without any peculiarities. In general, it seems to have an easy-to-drink taste, so it may be recommended for sake beginners.

I bought this when I visited Fushimi on a trip to Kansai. The aroma is faint without much habit. The mouthfeel is quite sweet. It makes you think so, but later a strong spiciness stings your throat. The gap between the sweetness and spiciness is impressive. The aftertaste is quite clear and lingers in the mouth.

A slight spiciness that stings the throat. The overall taste is refreshing without any peculiarities. After drinking, a strong sake aroma lingers in the mouth. The taste is a taste that makes you realize that there is a big difference between summer sake and summer wine.

The aroma is subtle, yet has a core that penetrates deep into the nose. On the palate, one senses a rounded sweetness. The complex flavor is hidden deep within, perhaps due to the combination of six different types of rice? The aftertaste is clean and does not linger. The end leaves a slightly peculiar flavor in the mouth. It is somewhat similar to rice crackers. At first, I thought the taste might be too strong, but the overall impression is very gentle. It is a very interesting taste that I have not had much of before, and I want to savor it in my mouth. And the label is very beautiful ✨.

S.S
The aroma is a mixture of sweet and sour. When you put it in your mouth, a strong sour taste spreads after a short pause. The aftertaste is throat-stabbing and astringent. It stays in the throat rather firmly. The overall taste is slightly peculiar. It seems to be a favorite of both lovers and haters. It may be too much for a single person or a light-flavored dish.

It has a light aroma and tastes slightly dry? It tastes light, typical of summer sake. The spiciness is felt more on the throat than on the tongue, after a little time. The overall impression is of a light drink with no corners.

The taste has a strong impression of acidity and pungency. It has an aftertaste that does not linger and is generally easy to drink. It tastes like what you would expect from a summer sake.

It was the last drink of the day. It has a very strong acidity and umami flavor. It seems that they have several kinds of Mai-Bijin, and the person who was with us ordered a different kind as a "variant," so I guess it is relatively orthodox among this brand. I guess it is a relatively orthodox brand.

We received a recommendation for this sake from Kyoto. It is nigori sake, so I mixed the sake as I drank it, and the taste was impressive, with a spiciness that stung my tongue quite a bit. This was the second time for me to taste Joyo sake during my trip, and I quite liked the taste of both!

This was recommended to me at a tavern near the inn I stayed at in Kyoto. It seems to be a very famous sake brewery, but I had never heard of it before. Basically, it is a brand that is only sold in restaurants. It is light and easy to drink. The color is slightly cloudy because it is not filtered.

This was the last of a set of three different types of drinks. The aroma is quite strong. It is dry, but has a sweet aftertaste. Compared to the other two, it seems to be a little less angular and more rounded.

It is very dry and has a sharp taste. Yet, it also has a fresh, rice-like flavor. I prefer dry sake, so this is my personal favorite. This was my first visit to Joyo itself, so maybe I should visit the brewery next time!

Literally, it is a sweet sake with a fruit-like feel. Nevertheless, the aftertaste does not linger, and the sharpness of the sake is a quintessential Japanese sake. It is a brand I would definitely like to try again.

I had it as my last drink before closing time. Perhaps because it is a summer sake, it has a relatively refreshing taste and a strong aroma. Compared to the spring sake I was allowed to drink in Kyushu a few months ago, I think I prefer this one. I think I'll try to complete the seasonal limited editions this season. *We were treated to a drink by a person who happened to be in the same room with us! I would like to take this opportunity to thank you again 🙏.

Having received a recommendation for a dry sake earlier, I requested the opposite, a sweet sake, and this is what I was served. The color of the sake was a yellowish hue, something I had never seen before. When I drank it, I found that it had a heavy taste that left a firm impression on my mouth. As a sake beginner, I was grateful for the advice to learn these two tastes and use them as a basis for my own sake drinking, as they are the extremes of the super-dry sake mentioned earlier. (I still find it hard to believe that they are the same sake...) I also learned about "kijoshu" for the first time, which made me realize once again how deep the world of sake still is.
