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.

My daughter and her husband brought this as a gift back home. It has a fruity aroma, but the mouthfeel is clean and smooth, and it disappears quickly. It is a crisp and delicious sake.

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. 😄🍶

This is the first sake from Ibaraki Prefecture. It has a bubbly taste unique to nama-shu. It is very light on the palate and has a Junmai Daiginjo-like flavor. Personally, I think it might be just right for an aperitif. Because it is so light on the palate, I feel as if I would drink too much of it. It is a delicious sake.

The mouthfeel is light and fizzy. It has the feeling of being positioned opposite to the "Kaze no Mori ALPHA1" that we drank earlier. It is dry and has a taste that does not linger. I think this one is better as a food sake.

chichi
The flavor increased when served warmed. Although it is a draft sake, it is probably best to drink it at about the upper temperature of warmed sake.

It has a refreshing taste with no peculiarities and can be enjoyed as much as you like. Even those who don't like sake would enjoy this. I drank it with my family and we finished it in no time.

The first sip of the opening reveals a sense of effervescence. From its slightly yellowish hue, I imagined it to have a rich flavor, but it is surprisingly refreshing and crisp, with the feel of a sake that does not interfere with food. It was an excellent match with simmered mackerel.

It is firm and dry. When served cold, it has a slightly peculiar taste, and a bitterness comes later, but when served warm, it is a dry and delicious sake with a refreshing sharpness. It is a bit like a milder version of "Katori" from Chiba Prefecture, which I drank before. I think it is quite a deep-flavored sake.

It has a mild mouthfeel. However, the fizzy sensation characteristic of nama-shu comes through clearly. After that, it disappears quickly, and the aftertaste is clean and crisp. It's the first time I've had this feeling. I was a little surprised at the gap between the feeling in my mouth and the aftertaste.

It has a solid taste, but also has the fizzy feeling of raw sake, so it doesn't linger. It did not interfere with the food, and could be enjoyed as a food sake.

It has a light and crisp taste that is not typical of Fushimi sake, and is more like Niigata sake. I was reminded again that there is such sake in Kyoto. It is a delicious sake.

I bought it in a set with "Tare Kuchi". It is slightly yellowish in color, and has a soft and mellow taste like Fushimi sake. It is the opposite of the "tare kuchi" we drank earlier. I think it is a sake recommended for women.
