Koeigiku月影 雄山錦 2021.4原酒生酒無濾過

The impression is that of an apricot soaked in lactic acid. It is sweet and sour and I like it very much. You can feel the bitterness and deliciousness, and the balance between the sweet and sour is excellent. After a while, you can feel the mellowness strongly. Kouyoungiku is delicious every time and it makes me really happy. I would like to enjoy Tsukiage by letting it sit for a few days so that I can enjoy the change of taste.

This is my first Murasuke. The sweetness is outstanding as they say. I was afraid it would be too sweet, but my fears were unfounded. It is just right and sweet. The umami and bitterness are also excellent. The taste at this price is astonishing. The mystery of why it is so sweet and tasty just right only deepens, so I wanted to try the others.

This is my first work in a long time. It's my first time to try Honochi, and I'm surprised that it's unexpectedly robust. It's fruity, sweet and delicious, although I don't think I like it heavy. I can't say it's my favorite because it's too dry, but it is what it is. I think I'll be drinking a variety of the crop from now on.

I had the fire-roasted version of Omachi, which was my favorite among the Jikan. I was surprised when I tried it. I like the Hi-ire version even better. I feel the sweetness and umami strongly. The bitterness and acidity are also strong, and it makes me happy because it is just like Omachi. As with the raw Omachi, the taste is strong, but it is easy to drink and can be drunk with ease. Compared to the raw version, the flavor is stronger and the overall taste is mellower and more rounded. This is the goodness of Hi-ire.

Junior is new to me. It's so delicious from the first sip. The balance of sweetness, acidity, flavor and bitterness is excellent. Each flavor stands out, yet it is clean and refreshing. Simply, I like it very much. I was convinced of the rumor that "Kudokukidake" never fails.

This is the second bottle of Kankiku. It's a wonderful sake that doesn't betray our expectations. The taste is strong and delicious. The sweetness in particular is clearly felt. The umami and acidity are also strong, making it a solid drinker. I thought it was just right for early autumn.

This is my first W. I've always been curious about it from the impact of the label. The aroma is gorgeous and fruity. The sweetness, deliciousness, and moderate acidity are clearly defined. However, perhaps because of the 17° alcohol content, it has a strong sense of solidity. It's delicious, but it's a little too heavy for me. As a result, I thought it was not my favorite overall.

This is the first time for me to taste both Takanaga and Bodacious sake. I took a sip and was surprised at the fullness. I have been avoiding Junmai, but I like this one. I'm sure it's the only Junmai. It has a great umami, and I have a strong impression that it is fuller than the sweetness of the -28°C sake content. Personally, I had the impression that it was similar to a dessert wine. I can't compare it to Akitsuho 507, but I am very happy to have found Takanaga.

It's been a long time since I've had Akitsuho 507. It is delicious and very happy. The gasiness, the sweetness, the sweetness, the bitterness that comes later, everything is great. When I drank it before, I thought I would prefer 657, but again, 507 is also very good. Although it has a strong statement, it is easy to drink and I realized again that it is a dangerous drink. It was too different from the Takanaga we compared it to, but I felt the consistency of the careful sake making.

This is the first Hiyaoroshi of this year. And it is Nabeshima after a long time. I don't know why Hiyaoroshi and the recent Nabeshima don't appeal to me much. I can feel the umami, but the sweetness is moderate, and I thought it was a little dry. After drinking all the Moon series, I ended up liking the New Moon the best.

It is dry. I remember that the last Nishito no Shizuku was sweet, but the Omachi is refreshingly sweet. For Omachi, it doesn't have such a strong taste, but it does have a strong umami and acidity. Unfortunately, I don't like Toyo Bijin that much this time, but I felt that this is what it should be.

This is my first chrysanthemum, and it's great. It's sweet, delicious, sour, and all the flavors are strong and I like it very much. I finished one bottle in no time. I thought it was the same taste I had somewhere else, but I also felt it was the best solution to everything. I had heard rumors about it, but I was surprised how good it tasted. I loved it in one shot.

It's sour and it's soooo good. Even though it's so sour, you can feel it as a balance of sweetness, bitterness, and flavor, which is great. I especially like the feeling of bitterness that comes after the strength of the acid. I haven't had the non-trial Sunburst yet, so I'd love to try the regular Sunburst next.

I am very grateful that this is an aged unfiltered, unpasteurized version of Tensei. I feel that the taste has become rounder because of the aging process. Also, the sweetness and umami have become stronger. Above all, the umami is felt thickly, and the impression is that it is dry and well worth drinking.

As the label says, it was light and dry. And the name "Tsukihaku" is so cool. The impression is a little different from other kafuda-shu we have drunk. However, it has a clear and moderate sweetness, with a beautiful hint of sweetness and acidity, and we feel that it is a Kafuda-shu after all. It is good to drink in summer, especially when it is fresh out of the refrigerator. Tsukihaku is not my favorite kind of sake, but I personally reaffirmed that the elegant and easy drinking taste is typical of Kafuda-shu.

This is my first time drinking Tenbi. I like it very much. I could feel the peaches from the smell to the taste. I can't deny that I drank it while eating peaches, but my mouth was full of peaches before I ate them. It's a mystery. Even after eating the peaches, it's still peachy. It has the perfect balance of sweetness, flavor, bitterness, and acidity. Anyway, I liked it and was very satisfied.

It's soooo mild. There is almost no sweetness, and I think it is dry. It is a beautiful sake with little bitterness or other miscellaneous flavors. Unfortunately, it's not my favorite, but I'm sure there are people who like this kind of sake.

I've been curious about this Shinshu Kameari, and finally got to drink it for the first time. I like it as expected. It is sweet, delicious and tasty. The sourness and sharpness are also clear. It also has a dry taste, which I feel is typical of summer sake.

It is sweet, delicious and sour, which I like very much. I was very grateful to have it because Hello Honored Chrysanthemum was miraculously available at this time. I can understand why it is so popular. The aroma is gorgeous and the sweetness and flavor are well combined. The acidity is also just right for my taste. For a Yamada Nishiki, I feel the overall taste is clear. I had the impression that it was somewhat similar to the No.6 of my favorite Shinsei.

It is gorgeous like Hououmida and has a beautiful sweetness. The gorgeousness is in full bloom from the aroma. It has a full body until the sweetness. It is gorgeous, beautiful, and you can feel it is Hououmida. It is the first time to drink Hououmida after a long time, but it was a stable taste.
