(Left photo) In and out in a snap It is as smooth as water. Beautiful sweetness and flavor when tasted well. I think this is the first sake of this level (in terms of price), but it is well-balanced and appropriate. It seems to be best served cold in the snow, but as the temperature rises, it becomes easier to taste the gentle sweetness and acidity. 4.50

First Shinshu Kamerei Very delicious! As soon as you open the bottle, even before pouring, you can smell the gorgeous and beautiful aroma of apples! The rich sweetness, balanced umami and acidity spread out. The aftertaste is not heavy at all, but a slight astringency lingers pleasantly. 5.00 It is best to finish it as soon as possible after the bottle is opened.

Mild aroma and sweetness Sourness comes first, followed by a slight sweetness and bitterness, and then the powerful flavor of Omachi comes out. However, it is well-balanced. 4.25 Ni-Utari 10th anniversary label is good.

Beautiful aroma like lychee. The aroma is strong and core with a strong umami, but the aroma is still very clear on the tongue and in the nose. After a slight bitterness, the umami lingers on the palate. The sweetness of the special junmai is more easily sensed. It is perfect as a food sake. It's good, but I think it's worth the price. 4.00

Very light in mouthfeel, but with a good balance of sweetness and acidity. Everything is not too strong, not too harsh, and pleasant! This is delicious! I want to drink Hozu and Kako for the second time soon! 5.00

Freshness that you would not expect from a fire-roasted sake. The quality of the sake is exactly like Kaze no Mori, with a well-balanced sweetness and flavor, and the acidity produced by the Bodeshime yeast. The taste is suitable for bringing the charm of sake to the world. However, I prefer Nama-shu. 4.25

Soft, mellow sweetness and umami without being overpowering. The lingering finish is rather long, with a pleasant bitterness and astringency that finishes crisply. This beautiful astringent bitterness is wonderful! No wonder it is hard to find! 5.00

It was hot enough to be hard to believe that it was mid-November, but it was the perfect sake to drink outside in such weather! It has a beautiful aroma that is typical of Masamune, and while the sweetness and acidity are well expressed, I have the impression that the sharpness has improved. It tastes great at room temperature. There is also a sense of gas. This is a god at this cosy price! 5.00

When drunk cold, it has a subdued Kaze no Mori feeling. The aroma is not as mellow and delicate as usual. Warmed up to lukewarm. Sourness and complexity, typical of the Bodhi yeast and Kaze no Mori's ALPHA series, come together at once! At the same time, it also has a freshness. The sweetness and umami, perhaps derived from kijo sake, is not too strong, but it is stronger than the original Kaze no Mori Akitsuho with a light aftertaste. Kaze no Mori is great for warming up! 5.00

The bottle was in pretty good health, and we almost opened it, but we managed to get it safe. After the crispness spreads on the tongue, the concentrated grapefruit-like acidity, melon-like sweetness, and umami open up in a flash! The finish is sharp and clean with a touch of bitterness. 4.50

Kunifutsuru is the only rice that is currently labeled as a raw material. However, the ratio of polished rice is not disclosed. Sakura Fukuhime is no exception to the gentle, light aroma and smooth taste that is common to all Kunifutsuru wines. However, the fruity, juicy, and acidic characteristics of this wine, as described in the product description, are designed to set it apart from other wines. I prefer it to junmai, junmai dry or junmai daiginjo, but it does not have the impact of regular sake. Maybe my expectations were too high. 4.00

Nama-zake limited to the unveiling tasting event The aroma of this sake was so pleasant that I thought it was a daiginjo, and the mild acidity was so beautifully fruity and fresh that I was surprised when I first tasted it. I have always preferred sake at room temperature to cold, but I think this one should be served cold! I hope it will be commercialized! Considering the cost performance of regular sake, I think this is a good choice. 4.75

The aroma, sweetness, and umami are similar to those of junmai and junmai-daiginjo-style dry wines, but with a more graceful and beautifully balanced finish. It is not particularly light in the mouthfeel or aftertaste, but you can taste the umami and the sweetness, which is typical of Kunitatsuru Junmai Daiginjos. 4.00

I received a set of 8 bottles from Costco to compare, so I started with Kita-Akita. I had already had Junmai Daiginjo, so I omitted it. It's gorgeous and light, with a touch of daiginjo in the mouthfeel. Considering the price range and availability, it is delicious enough! I honestly can't tell the difference between it and Jun Daigin. 3.75

The aroma was mild, but slightly dry compared to the impression of sweetness. Light on the palate, with a pleasant gasiness and the richness and acidity of a traditional sake brewed with sake yeast. When the temperature range is raised, the sweetness and umami can be felt in a certain way, but it may be too much for a mid-meal drink. The aroma opens up after a few days of drinking. It's delicious, but I'd like to consider its cost performance. 4.00
