I was threatened that it would blow very hard, so I carefully opened the bottle and was able to drink it without incident. I was recommended to put some ice on top, so I drank it well chilled and refreshed. It was a perfect summer drink.

It was a happy sake with no unpleasant taste, as if the brewer had thought about not only the comfort of drinking it, but also about your body after you finished drinking it and sobered up. It has an excellent balance of umami, sweetness, and a sense of shwariness that is typical of nama-zake. Delicious! I regret why I had not come across this sake when I used to live in Ueda. You can feel the thoughtfulness of the careful makers.

We named it DRY SPARKRING. It was a cup filled with the possibilities of sake Mugen. It was not too sweet, but crisp and refreshing. It is a perfect sake for my colleague who is transferring to Saku for flower arrangement.

A cute etiquette of a thunderbird wearing a 🍑 momo. It has a natural peach scent and is not overpowering. They also have strawberry 🍓, so I'm looking forward to that!

It went well with meat-based snacks. Room temperature◎This is my favorite food sake. It says, "Handmade in extreme cold. Saku is one of the coldest places in Nagano Prefecture, and it will be below minus 10 degrees tomorrow morning. I received this as a crowd funding to support Saku Sparkling. I had the pleasure of not knowing what the return gifts would bring, so I'm very pleased with my new acquaintance!

The second part of the New Year's Sake Festival! The aroma on the nose is gentle, and the flavor is outstanding. The aroma on the nose is gentle, and the flavor is excellent. It's fresh, so I'm glad I have to drink it soon. Let's look to the high heavens and have a humble year!

First part of the New Year's sake fest! I wanted to drink shuwashu at the end of the work year, and it was so shuwashu that I spilled it on my desk. What a waste. The sweet mouthfeel made me open it right up.

I found it at a local local supermarket. Cospa was the strongest. Even though the rice is polished to 70%, it is easy to drink with no habits like Daishinshu. I drank it too much with salmon roe. The fact that it's called "Shin Kura Memorial" also makes me want to support it. I'm going to buy it all at the same time as the store opens tomorrow.

As the new greenery is getting prettier, I wanted to drink some chilled, unpasteurized sake. I like the refreshing green label, but when I pour it, it smells like a melon. It's full of acidity and flavor, which I love. I am also attracted to the fact that it is made with Kinmon Nishiki from Shinshu.

A mouthful of deliciousness and a refreshing acidity through the nose. Miyamanishiki 60%, it is my favorite sake to drink with a meal. It doesn't give me a bad feeling even after a meal. Today we had boiled okogi (a sprout of Japanese barberry) for the first time this spring and simmered pork and turnip. Mizore soup of oyster. I feel I tasted sake properly with the aroma which is not defeated by fragrant snacks. It is a very good combination.

I had a good thing going and bought a fresh, refreshing Daiginjo. It's easy to drink, it's good - I like the swooshing sensation on the tongue, it's a drink that everyone will like. Daishinshu is a royal road.

Warmed slightly to lukewarm. It smells like honey, but not too sweet. It's a two year old sake from 2018. It's the first time I've heard of a sake vintage.

I picked up a bottle of Suwa sake, hoping for a divine crossing of Suwa Lake. When I heated it up lukewarm, it had a clean taste with no miscellaneous flavors. I was able to drink more and more. There is a QR code on the back label, which shows the process of sake brewing, and I could feel the careful handiwork. I like it even more now. It's a great sake that you can buy at your local supermarket.

I had it as I was told it was recommended for heated sake. The rice is polished to 70% and you can enjoy the change in flavor with temperature. It has a nice sweetness and sourness like Shaoxing wine.
