Found this at a liquor store I happened to walk in 🙌 Hyakutenma Ten by Osake Department of Katano Orihime University ⭐️ A crisp, food-friendly sake with a pleasant acidity. Easy to drink, but be careful as it is 17 degrees. By the time I realized it, it was too late and my memory was blown 🤣.

A sake party at my house with Mr. and Mrs. Wakata, who are usually good friends of mine 🍶 Yuki's "Do you want to drink Yamasan? Yuki's sweet temptation of "Do you want to drink Yamasan? and "I'll take care of your children's book report" by Mr. Wakata 🤣. I was so happy to be able to meet him and his wife. I can't buy Yamasan myself, so I'm very happy 😊. It has a gentle sweet and sour taste with a hint of melon🍈 and a slight bitterness, so it's easy to drink. It's so delicious 😋. After that, we drank a bottle of Takashimizu packaged sake brought by Yuki (which was easy to drink and bad 😅) and a bottle we offered from our house, and we became very tongue-tied 🤣. Thank you Yuki and Wakata for your help. Thank you very much 🙇. Thanks to you, my son's book report was a grade school representative👍.

It's been a long time since I've had a day in the sun. They used sake rice given to them by Shinsei. It is very tasty with a sweetness that reminds of sweet citrus fruits like navel and iyokan, and a chili gasiness. Yum! But expensive 😂. This time it was from the hanpukai, but it's one of those bottles that I wouldn't touch on my own.

It's too late now, but the June Sakai branch bring-your-own-party 😅 Thank you Umaisan for being the secretary 🙇Thank you to everyone who attended 🙇. I was forced to buy at the cuddle 🤣 brought some high quality sake. I had to buy it at a cuddle 🤣 I brought a bottle of expensive sake. It's light and dry, with a bit of bitterness, so I guess it's suitable for a mealtime drink. ...But more importantly, Mr. and Mrs. Wakata brought a bottle of Motomine Tsuru Gaba-nigori, which I thought I would like: ☺️ I was so excited! It was thick and creamy, with a strong Kibotsuru flavor. We also mixed nigori with clear sake and drank it. Well, as always, offline meetings are the best. Once again, thank you all very much 😊.

It was hot and humid, and I wanted to schwirl, so I opened a bottle of this one. Although the bottle was warned to be careful when opening, it did not blow at all. It was slightly dry and slightly effervescent, which I felt was perfect for this season. I would be happier if it were a little more effervescent 😊. It was about as gently fizzy as Mistio.

It's been a while since I've had a cold chrysanthemum. I know it's delicious, so my expectations are high even before drinking it😊. The cork that goes out with a swoosh, good aroma like pear🍐.

A gift from my mother-in-law who is a biker. My mother-in-law and I are good friends who give each other sake and sake lees as gifts. We received a bottle of Nakanori's No. 1.

Found by chance at a store💡. I wonder if it has anything to do with last summer's challenge sake, Mizuchi? I looked it up and it looks like they renamed the "ride?" series to Mizuchi. Sake level -62, acidity 6.7, quite an oddball 🫶. It is a sparkling sake with secondary fermentation in the bottle, but the fizz is weak. Fearfully took a sip. It is extremely sweet! Of course the acidity is strong, but it is so sweet that my taste buds are taken over by it. I wonder if they put syrup in it? It's so sweet 😅. Naturally, it doesn't go well with food 😂. It might be good to drink after a hard day's work 🙄. I bought the blue one too. I don't know what to do with it😅
