Corked at a friend and his family's house after a lunchtime drink outside.
The fruity sweetness, the delicious rice flavor, and the aftertaste are all to my liking.
I feel that the flamboyance (←personal impression) has been reduced compared to the past.

The bottle is opened with a sizzling sound of gas escaping.
It has a pear-like aroma.
The fruity sweetness, the umami of the rice, and the clean aftertaste make us feel that Jikkoman's Tokujun is still delicious.

Good morning, b.bridge!
Jikin's Tokujun is really delicious 😋.
I'd like to drink it at home sometime 😊.

Thank you, ma-ki-!
It is delicious, isn't it? The store where I used to be able to buy it sometimes has closed, so it seems it will be hard to get it in the future.

At a liquor store on my trip, I found the much talked-about(?) I found CROSS+ at a liquor store in our destination, so I rushed to buy it.
My wife likes Nabeshima Jun Dai Yamadaho (Shin Yamadaho?) and I like Nabeshima Jun Dai Short Neck Watabune (Watabune No. 2). My wife likes Nabeshima's Jun-Dai Yamada-Ho (New Yamada-Ho?) and I like Nabeshima's Jun-Dai Short Zao Watabune (Watabune No. 2), so I had high expectations for this one.
The bottle was opened with a squeal of gas escaping.
The aroma was faintly apple. The sweetness of pineapple and peach is followed by the umami of rice, which is typical of Nabeshima, and finally the astringency of grapefruit.
The second glass had more piquancy and minerality.
(Perhaps it is a memory correction, but) this bottle made me think that Nabeshima is still my favorite.

Thank you very much, Hiro-san. I am sad to say that there is no Nabeshima distributor in my neighborhood, so it is not easy to get it!

Thank you, Pon. I found this when I was thinking of buying some local sake at a local liquor store not in Saga. I'm so glad to have such an encounter.

Aroma like green apple and muscat.
After the juicy peach-like sweetness, you feel the sweetness and umami of the rice, and it seems to disappear quickly.
Japanese>English

Remove the cover and open the bottle with a spontaneous popping sound when you touch the crown.
There is a feeling of gas. The juicy sweetness, acidity, and rice flavor can be felt.
The impression of lactic acidity and grapefruit-like acidity intensifies when the cask is mixed.

The aroma is mild.

February's hanpukai sake and the first packaged sake for drinking at home.
It has a pear-like aroma.
Fruity but clean sweetness and rice flavor.
It is a delicious sake.

My wife was recommended this bottle at a liquor store.
It is an assemblage of Miyamanishiki, Yamadanishiki, and Sakahomare sake.
It has a pear- and peach-like aroma with a hint of gas.
The fruity yet refreshing sweetness and umami of the rice are felt, with some acidity and astringency at the end.
Japanese>English

Good morning, b.bridge😃!
Tsuneyama! I drank it for the first time this year and it was so good 😋I'm curious about the assemblage here too 😍Yum!

Good morning, Jay & Nobby.
It was our first drink too and it was delicious. If your first drink is positive, I'm sure you'll be interested in many other drinks as well.

Eiko Fuji is a recent favorite of mine.
As part of the Save Kumamoto Donation Project, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of this product will be donated to the reconstruction of Kumamoto Castle.
Both the aroma and taste are fruity, which is typical of Eikoufuji (←my personal impression), and the rice flavor can be felt in this bottle.

I have not had this Omine for a long time during a trip to Yamaguchi. I really wanted to buy a draft sake, but due to the restrictions of keeping it cold during the trip, I chose the fire-aged version.
Fruity aroma. Fresh sweetness, followed by the umami of rice, and some acidity.
I had it with yakiniku (grilled meat) and thought it went well with it.

Suiyu, which I've been liking lately (I really like Hanayuup even more, but I can't seem to get my hands on it because they only seem to carry it in one bottle...).
The bottle is opened with a pop and the pressure is released.
The aroma is mildly muscat and melon-like.
After the fresh sweetness of apples and pears, you taste the umami of rice, with a slight astringency at the end.

Probably your first Mutsu Hachisen. This is a limited edition sake for the hanpukai.
The bottle was opened with the sound of gas escaping.
The first thing to do is to start with the top clear.
It has a mild apple-like aroma. Fresh and lush sweetness is followed by a clean rice flavor.
When the ori is added, the sweetness like calpis, the acidity like lactic acid, and the umami of the rice are increased.

Thank you, Jay & Nobby. The Nouveau sounds delicious as well. I would like to try more Mutsu Hachisen in the future!

This is the first time I've had a drink at home outside of the different rice series of the crop.
Fruity aroma. The first impression is of a slightly fruity, yet refreshing and easy-to-drink sake.

b.bridge Vertical drinking of Nabeshima New Moon 2024 and 2021 (comparison of different years of the same brand).
When three of us blind-tested them, we were all able to guess which was the 2024.
Compared to the 2021, the 2024 was much fresher and more tangy, while still having the flamboyance and umami of rice that is typical of Nabeshima (←my personal impression).
In the end, both are very tasty.

When three of us blind tested them, we were all able to guess which was the 2024.
The 2021 was not as fresh and piquant as the 2024, but it had a good fruity sweetness and a delicious rice flavor.

The bottle was opened at a holiday lunchtime drinking party with friends.
It has a fruity aroma like muscat. It has the crispness that only nama-shu can have. There is a fruity sweetness like muscat and peach at first, followed by the umami of the rice, and then the impression that it disappears cleanly.
This is the first time I have had Jikin x Sake Mirai, and it is very delicious.

Good morning, b.bridge!

I want to drink it again 😊.

This is the first Kangiku sake using Sake Mirai that we have ever seen.
It has a sweet and fruity taste that is typical of Kangiku (← my personal impression), but at the same time, it has a delicious rice flavor, and it went down smoothly.

When the cover is removed, the bottle is opened with a vigorous popping sound.
