Next to Korogaura is Toryu. This is my first time to try Toryu, but I happened to have some sake available and I am waiting for it 😁. Nagoya Cloud is a group formed by young brewers from Higashiryu, Kintora, Taka no Yume, and Kami no I. It is a group formed by young brewers from Higashiryu, Kintora, Taka no Yume, and Kami no I. It looks like the label was chosen from a public contest. It seems that the other three breweries also have their own sake labels that were chosen in a contest. I thought it would be a classic heated sake because it is junmai, but it is rather modern and fruity. It was delicious with a clean and refreshing taste.

After the Bamboo Spring... Sake that the store owner bought at Bic Camera when he went to the Nagoya venue of YOMOYAMA. They seemed to have a wide variety of Nagoya sake. I guess it's like Yodobashi in Osaka🤔. I wonder if the Bic Camera in Namba used to have a lot of Kansai sake, or how about now? I have the impression that EDION has a good selection of Katanozakura and Kuninochou Osaka sake. Harada Shuzo, famous for Ikumichii sake. The label and bottle look like summer sake, but I guess not😅. It was made last October, so it's a little old, but not unpleasant. It's a little classic, but it's complex, crisp, and delicious 😋.

Ikoma Sake Shop Takezumi Tasting (2) Junmai Ginjyo Omachi Nama-zake Polishing ratio 55% Omachi from Asago City, Japan Sake Beverage +5% Alcohol 17 When I drank it in the past, I had the impression that it was spicy but fresh, sweet and delicious. Slightly effervescent and slightly dry, but with a hint of sweetness. Junmai Yamadanishiki 2014BY 10 years old Polishing ratio 70%, Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, Sake degree +11 Alcohol 14%. It has a dark color. Drink this one warmed up. It has a sense of maturity, but it is not difficult to drink. It has a soft taste, and I definitely think it should be warmed up. I'm sorry for heating up the sake even though I'm sweating," the toji told me. I think I drank a lot of this one alone 🤣. Junmai Ginjo Yuzusyu The last one was Yuzusyu. It was delicious with sourness, moderate sweetness and a touch of bitterness from the yuzu (yuzu). This is the last of the Takezumi...

Sake from the defunct Takeuchi Brewery😿. When Ao and I went on a liquor store tour, we found a discount liquor store that sold it for 330 yen, so we bought it. The regular price should be around 2,700 yen 😅. The aroma is gorgeous. Fruity ginjo aroma on the palate. The overall taste is elegant and the second half is dry. I was worried about its age since it's 24 years old in October, but it was fine. There is a little color on the sake, though. It was even sweeter and easier to drink after a week than when it was freshly opened. The spiciness also seems to have lessened. I feel bad for drinking it at such a low price 🥺. I've already bought one more type of Kou no Izumi, so I'll post it later. Today I attended Rina Aiuchi's 25th anniversary concert at ESAKA MUSE in Esaka! It was great to hear new songs that were just released and songs that I haven't heard in a while 😆. I go to summer concerts every year, but the venues are always in minor places💦. It's on the 4th floor of the building that houses Don Quijote, but you can only enter by stairs 🤣. But the autographs on display at the venue were amazing 😳. There was also SCANDAL, Hitomi Yaida, and aiko!

Purchased at the liquor store where I met up with Ao the day I met her. I haven't had Kameyama sake at home since I bought a bottle of red rice sake at Yodobashi a long time ago. The top aroma is a little floral. Fresh and slightly effervescent. The impression is of banana-like sweetness and a bit of dryness that converges with bitterness. It is more beautiful than I expected. The balance of sweet and spicy is very good. I would like to try many other KAMEMAN sakes!

I've been buying it for a long time. Polishing ratio 60%, pretty polished for this kind of sake. It's getting a little old 😅. The flavor is pretty sweet and punchy. Sweetness with a honey-like atmosphere. The second half is bitter with a strong alu feel. Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so old 🤔.

I often see it at Yamaya, but there are so many kinds of sake in some stores that I didn't know which one to buy 😅. I couldn't find any reviews even after searching 💦. The taste is rich and dark, just like the description says. I got the impression that it has a very small amount of sweetness, sourness, spiciness and alu-ness to finish the second half of the bottle. If it had a little more sweetness, I'd like it a lot 🤔. I think it's a little sweeter than the day I opened the bottle, but I think the bitterness is stronger... After 6 days, I took it out of the fridge and drank it a little later, and it became sweet and tasty. After a week, the nutty taste is getting stronger. It's getting more and more nutty😅

I had a guest over at my house and opened a large bottle of Nara sake, but I got carried away at the end and opened it even though it wasn't the anniversary or the last day of the year😅. It's not often I open it on the same day I bought it 🤔. I opened it on the same day I bought it 🤔. I went to see if they had any Yamae Nishiki, but they didn't and the only ones they had were Kinmon Nishiki and Ginjo Hi-ire, so I went out on a limb and bought this one 😇. I can't remember the last time I bought a sake in a wooden box, except for the Daiginjo from Yizuisuishin or the Ottersai Jiwari Sanbun. Even more expensive sakes are in paper boxes. It's mature but gorgeous, melon-like, sweet and delicious. The finish is clean and crisp. Maybe it's better to drink it at room temperature. I heard there is also a raw or unpasteurized version of this, but I'm sure it's a good one 🤔. I think it's definitely a good one 🤔.

I think this may be the only time I can find Jukinmu. So, Ao and I bought it when we went to Takimoto. Sweet and juicy, with a strong acidity. A little astringent in the second half, but overall a rich sweet sake. Personally, I prefer Shikanaru or Uraharushika 🤔. I wrote "rich sweet" but it also has a refreshing taste.

Aroma is a little peculiar. Sweet and sour, umami and complex flavor. It is a bit spicy among Hanaboe's mizu-hashiro sake. I expected it to be a little sweeter, but compared to other Hanaboe mizu-hashiroshi I have had, I got the impression that it was mainly spicy. Sweet at the beginning but spicy at the end. When I drank it again, it was like sweet, sour, and bitter? After 5 days, it becomes sour and bitter and hard to drink...

The top aroma is unique. Unique flavor that is difficult to describe in the mouth. The impression is that sweetness, bitterness, and spiciness change frequently in the mouth. Freshness peeks out in places. Dry and minerally mouthfeel Nutty taste at the back of the mouth when it gets close to room temperature. And I don't think it's a wooden vat, but it's a little woody atmosphere. The overall impression is spicy and the spiciness lingers in the mouth for a long time, just like koge2's review. On the second day, the sweetness seems to increase, but the smokiness seems to be stronger. I definitely prefer this series to the Kijoshu, Sherry Cask, and Sparkling that I had last year. I think I've had a lot of Okutanba in total, but I can't seem to get into it 🤔. Chitose was pretty impressive though. I wish they'd serve the wooden ticket in four-packs... It's been almost a week now, and it's getting a bit peculiar, but it's getting sweeter and juicier...

After Chiyoda Kura, we had some sake that the store owner had purchased when he went to Tokushima. I was envious that he was drinking Seitama there. I wonder if it's a low-alcoholic and summery sake. I heard it was sold at the Aeon Tokushima store. In rural areas, it's often easier to find local sake at an aeon store than at a liquor store. I don't know about now, but that was 6 years ago. It's pretty clear and thin... or maybe it doesn't have much flavor... Not as good as the sake they brought to the Sake Expo in Harukas 🤔.

Banshu Ikkyo is locally distributed. It is a clear, clean sake with virtually no alkaloids. Muscat and citrus flavors. It has sweetness, but it is also dry and crisp. I wish they would sell this all over Japan. I think it's interesting because it's the opposite type of Masamune. It tastes fresh, as if it was once-fired. It may not be as popular as the sake for special stores, but I think it's a versatile sake that can be served cold or warmed. It can be matched with various types of food.

I bought this wine because I thought it looked rare at the Shugetsu tasting. The moment you put it in your mouth, it is mild, but then a strong umami flavor comes. It is a summer sake, but it has a strong flavor with a lot of gusto. The impression is that it is quite spicy. But it may be light and dry in the Yukihikozan range 🤔. It becomes more square when it gets hotter, and it has a nice sweetness on the palate. It's good 😁. This is a perfect food sake! I like the label a lot. I actually bought the jacket 🤭.
