I drank this sake during a trip to Kochi Prefecture with my son's family. It was the first time I had seen this brand and I was curious to try it, but I was satisfied with its clean, dry taste, which went well with the local specialty, grilled bonito.

When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a slight fizzy sensation, followed by a fruity aroma that escapes through your nose. It has a mild flavor, but surprisingly it does not linger and disappears without a trace. My son gave this to me as a gift from a friend, and it is quite a tasty sake. It is a very good sake 😊🍶.

This is an old sake brewed in 2017. We first tried it cold, which gave it a taste unique to koshu. However, when served lukewarm, it became even more full-bodied and delicious. I had no idea that Miyako Bijin had old sake. I am impressed. I am very impressed.

The first sip was opened just as my son and his wife arrived after a long absence. As the name suggests, the sound of the unfiltered unpasteurized sake, reminiscent of champagne, aroused a sense of anticipation. When you put it in your mouth, a fizzy sensation comes first. As the description "dry" suggests, it has a sharp taste that does not linger. Before I know it I must have downed about 5 cups again. I enjoyed the evening drink with my son's wife. I enjoyed it with my son's wife 🍶😄😄.

I bought this sake together with "Isojiman" when I visited Shizuoka Prefecture at the end of last year. It has a rich flavor that spreads out in the mouth. The taste is rich and full, yet the aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing, and I found myself pouring more and more sake. I tried it with thinly sliced sea bream (😆🍶) and it was quite good. I had it with thinly sliced sea bream and it was quite good 😄.

Coincidentally, since New Year's, sake from Tochigi Prefecture has been on the list. My son bought it with "Shinmasa", but for some reason "Shinmasa" didn't come. (😅😅 When I put it in my mouth with a sharp aroma, I feel a slight gassy sensation. Is it because it is an unfiltered sake? The sourness and sweetness are exquisite. But it is a very crisp sake with no lingering aftertaste.

I opened my mouth with the same vigor with which I opened the "Isobojimai". It is fruity, but also has a hint of sweetness. It has a good taste that does not linger. It is a delicious sake.

The year 2023 opened with "Isoboast". I bought it on a trip to Shizuoka Prefecture at the end of the year from a distributor. I kept it as a New Year's sake. Unlike the Honjozo sake I had drunk before, I was impressed by its sharpness and sharpness. The sharpness of the sake, coupled with the clean mouthfeel, made the sake go down a treat. My son's wife and I drank about 5 gou of sake together. When we came to, about half of the bottle was gone. 😅🍶 I tried drinking it lukewarm. The taste changed completely. It has a fuller taste and I feel like I have seen a new side of it. Still, it is delicious!

It has a slightly rich flavor of orikara. It has a freshness as is typical of nama-shu, and together with its sharpness, it is a delicious sake.

I remember that when I drank it a long time ago, I was very surprised by its sharp and dry taste, just like its name, and I was hesitant to drink it after that. When I drank it again after some time had passed, I found it to have a different taste from that time. The sharp sharp taste is still the same, but the aftertaste that disappears so quickly is indescribable and makes me want to drink more and more. This is indeed the flagship brand of Harushika.

It has been sitting in the fridge for two months, but I finally got around to opening it. It has a light effervescence, a good acidity, and a fruity flavor that keeps you drinking more and more. My son's wife and I ended up drinking it all. 😅

From the aroma, I thought it would have a sour taste, but it has a mild sourness in the mouth and a refreshing aftertaste that quickly disappears. I drank it with beef stew today, and it drained off the oil very well.

Although it is "fire-aged", a slight fizzy sensation arrives in the mouth. Afterwards, a fruity aroma escapes into the nose. It has a refreshing taste, and you can enjoy it as much as you want. We served it with "Nishikigi" as a side dish, and it was a perfect match.

It is light, as is typical of Niigata sake, and does not linger. It is easy to match with anything. I appreciate that the price is reasonable and easy on the wallet.

When you take a sip, a heavy flavor spreads on the palate. The label says to keep it well chilled, but I personally think it is better served warmed. It is a traditional "sake" in the traditional sense of the word. It is a deeply flavored sake.

It has been a while since we have had "Tenmei". As the name suggests, it has a very smooth, crisp, and refreshing taste, just like a summer sake, but it also has a strong rice flavor. Today we enjoyed our home-made "Hamo no otoshi" (pike conger eel) and Spanish mackerel sashimi 🍶😊.

My son gave it to me as an early birthday present. It is a tremendous surprise gift. I immediately opened my mouth and enjoyed it. It didn't have that much of an aroma, but when I put it in my mouth, I was satisfied as I expected with the slight effervescence and the refreshing sensation that passed through my nose. If I had to guess, I would say it was more like champagne. It is also very smooth on the palate, so instead of my son who cannot drink, my son-in-law and I finished it in no time at all. 😄🍶
