Wakagoma原酒生酒無濾過おりがらみ

This is the first Wakakoma we purchased on a recent trip to Utsunomiya. It is an unfiltered unpasteurized sake with a 90% rice polishing ratio of Aizan. It has a fruity aroma like apple, dry taste, and clear bitterness. It has no sweetness, so it is a sake that goes down easy.

Good evening, Akun 😃. Welcome to Utsunomiya 🤗 First Wakakoma! Congratulations 🎉 It's a delicious sake 🍶 even though it's low milled 👍.

Thank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby. It is a sake that is not often seen in Tokyo, but it is delicious and dry with a sharp taste. If I find it, I will definitely repeat my purchase.

I have only ever bought No. 4 bottles because of my wife's reservations, but today is the fifth day since I first bought a bottle and drank it all. I tried it at room temperature, cold, lukewarm, and hot, and found it to be delicious, with a refreshing yet delicious flavor with a subdued aroma. It is a great sake for everyday drinking, and I think it is even better than Hakurakusei.

My daughter, who became a working adult this spring and started living alone, came home temporarily this weekend. And dinner was her favorite, sukiyaki. Before dinner, I had my first Kangiku, which was a flying start for me. The alcohol content is low at 14 degrees, and the fizzy feeling is refreshing and easy to drink. It is an appropriate sake for the happy feeling I am having right now.

Soft, fresh, and slightly effervescent were the phrases on the bottle, and they were right. The low alcohol content (13%) makes it easy to drink, and it's perfect to start drinking before dark on a holiday evening.

Today I went on a one-day business trip to Matsue. On the way home, I bought a bottle of Izumo Fuji Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki at Izumo Airport. It has no strong characteristics, but it is well-balanced. It seems to go well with light-flavored simmered dishes.

Sharaku Junmai Ginjo Akaban Omachi Nama Sake Melon aroma, fresh, crisp, sweet and delicious. I know it's good before I drink it lol. When I was in Aizuwakamatsu on a business trip the other day, I went to see the brewery the morning before it opened, and it had a neat appearance.

It has a sourness unique to Yamahai, but it tastes light and refreshing, perhaps because of its 13% alcohol content. It seems that you can continue drinking it for a long time.

My wife, who had been suffering from back pain for many years, was discharged from the hospital today after undergoing surgery for a herniated disc last week and came home. Then, we had a toast. Perhaps because I was relieved, Sharaku Junmai Sake, which I often drink, seemed more mellow.

Nabeshima Junmai Ginjo Akaban Omachi Nama Sake Dense umami, sweetness, acidity, and a slight tingling. I've been drinking only dry, refreshing sake lately, but this kind of sake is also good.

I buy Sharaku Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Black Label every time I find it. I don't know how many bottles I've already had. This time, it is a Banshu Yamadanishiki Nama Sake. It is fresh and has a strong umami flavor, but it is also beautiful and elegant. It goes down smoothly. I am likely to buy it again.

Saku Ganochi was chilled and tasted in a wine glass. The aroma of lychee and the elegant sweetness are typical of sake. I think I can tell by the blind test (probably not possible lol).

I had a bottle of Suminoe Junmai Ginjo Solid. It is said to be a very dry sake, and indeed it is crisp and refreshing when served cold, but as the temperature rises a bit, the gentle rice flavor comes out. It has no floral aroma or sweetness, so it complements the meal very well.

Drunken Whale Junmai Gohyakumangoku is served at room temperature. The aroma is mild, followed by a pungent and sour taste. There is no sweetness or umami. It is a sake that I never get tired of drinking.

Tasting Sai Rai for the first time. Dark sweetness and sourness, followed by juiciness. It doesn't feel like it's going to quit. Is it a sake that can stand alone?

Today I received an unofficial announcement of my appointment as president at my workplace, and I was given a bottle of Tobiroki Junmai Daiginjo to celebrate. As I drink this clear and beautiful sake, I look back on the past, which was painful but enjoyable, and think about my responsibility for the future. For me, it is the perfect sake for a special occasion.

Thank you very much, takeshon. I think it's just a matter of timing in a mutual relationship with the people around me. We have to do our best to make people think that we are happy.

We enjoyed Sharaku Junmai Ginjo Yoshikawa Yamadanishiki. We were allowed to compare it with Tojo Yamadanishiki at the shop, and we chose Yoshikawa Yamadanishiki because it had more sweetness, but it had the perfect balance of beautiful sweetness, umami, and acidity that is typical of Sharaku. It is always stable and delicious.

I wanted to try a fruity sake, so I drank Hekihan Hououmita for the first time in a while. It has a strong aroma of Muscat like Hououmida, and fresh sweetness and acidity. I am satisfied.
