When you pour it into a glass, it is bubbly and sizzlingly cloudy. The aroma is clean and unctuous. The carbonation is a nice splash 😊. It's a perfect carbonated drink 😎. I feel a rounded, unctuous sweetness in the middle of my tongue. I don't feel any particular flavor, so I keep on drinking for the flavor😅. As the temperature settles down a bit, the fruity flavor comes out. Anyway, it's easy to drink and you can't slow down your sake cup and keep on drinking 🤤.

Almost colorless and transparent. It has a slight yellowish tinge to it. It smells very fresh 😉. On the palate, you first taste a soft acidity😊. After that, a pleasant astringent and bitter taste spreads from the tip of the tongue, changing to sweetness while it travels from the center to the back of the tongue 😋. The sweetness seems to be a thin wasanbon, and after a while of drinking, the sweetness has a mellowness to it. There is no angularity in the overall flavor, so I just keep accepting it😅. As the temperature settled down, the sweetness increased. On the third day, it became glossy, and it kept on being glossy and flavorful all the time on the palate 😊.

This is the second bottle I drank with you all. The aroma is gorgeous - refreshing 😉. The taste is fruity, but without any emphasis, meek, mellow and gentle ☺️ It has a slight sweetness to it 🤤. My mouth couldn't find any reason to resist and kept drinking it 😅. What a mellow and dangerous drink 😱.

Today we are having a drinking party with people who have been helping us on a daily basis. I brought my sake recommendations on the spot for everyone to drink. ☺️ The first one is Hirotogawa! The aroma is like melon juice 😉. The schwash spread as it entered my mouth. Misumishiiiiiii~! A thin taste of melon juice spreads out. There is also a glimpse of bitterness at the end 😎. I had it with shabu-shabu, and it was delicious without interfering with either 🤤. Everyone I drank with raved about it. You can't go wrong with Hirotogawa😍.

Alcohol content: 10 degrees, content: 500 ml, somewhat moderate. When you put the cap close to your nose, you can smell the sweetness and dried bonito broth 😁. Pouring it into a sake cup, it is a clear yellowish liquid 😊. The taste is light and slightly sour. However, it does not leave a lingering or persistent taste 😎. It's so refreshing and clean that I keep on drinking it because I want to taste it 😅. If you keep doing that, you'll get a dashi-like flavor at the back of your tongue that comes out at the end. But it's discreet to a fault. As the temperature settles down a bit, a bonito broth-like flavor comes out 😋. I can't stop 🤤.

This is the first time I have had Take-no-i Shuzo ☺️ It's sweet and spicy with a fresh aroma. Bon appétit. A jump of acidity! Immediately the sweetness and spiciness comes through, followed by the taste of omachi from the back of the tongue, spreading out Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! The lingering aftertaste continues and fills me with a sense of drinking 😋. It's not too stale, but rather refreshing, so it can be enjoyed in a relaxed manner 🤤.

Clear yellowish liquid. It has a sweet, spicy and fresh aroma. When served cold, it was fresh like whipped cream when it entered the mouth, and soon after, it was enveloped by spicy and rice flavor. In the mouth, there was a sweetness in the center of the tongue, a pungency in the back, and a glimmer of gloss on the tip of the tongue. As the temperature gradually settled down, the sake became dry and a little thicker in the mouth, and the firm rice flavor spread out, leaving a pungent taste at the back of the throat and a glossy feeling on the tongue. It is a sake that leaves you with a sense of taste 😋. The third day after opening the bottle. After the taste settled down and the refreshing mouthfeel was followed by a shiitake mushroom soup-like flavor, the sweet and spicy taste spread from the center of the tongue to the back of the mouth. The flavor increases and you can taste it even more 🤤.

Tokachi😎, the first Hokkaido sake I have had in a long time. I'll have it with high expectations. I was told that it can be enjoyed cold, room temperature, or lukewarm, so I started with the lukewarm sake! Pouring it into a sake cup, it has a slightly yellowish color. The aroma is sour and refreshing. The sweet and sourness jumped in first, followed by bitterness, and then the freshness spread further down the throat 😚. Instantly, you feel as if you are drinking a light plum wine 😉. When served cold, the flavor was gentler than lukewarm. The freshness of the plum wine is followed by a hint of sourness. The throat feel is very gentle and pleasant 😋. The sourness lingers on the back of the tongue and a bit of bitterness appears 😎. The change in flavor is unusual and keeps me entertained without getting tired of drinking it 🤤.

I don't remember when I drank it before. But I have had it. I opened the bottle! You can faintly detect a melon-like aroma with a strong freshness 😉. Pouring it into a sake cup, it is clear and yellowish. The taste, I thought I felt a refreshing, acidic, fruit juice-like flavor, but it turned into a salty taste? How strange 😱. As you taste the saltiness, an astringent bitterness emerges from the back of your mouth and spreads across the surface of your tongue. As I was enjoying its lingering taste, I also found a faint wagashi that came up even later 😎. As I thought when I drank Naohiko Noguchi Laboratory before, the sake made by Mr. Noguchi is "chemistry"! You seem to enjoy scientific reactions 😉. I drank it while eating yakitori as a snack and it lost its saltiness😅.

The aroma is fresh and sweet Nabeshima aroma 😋 Almost colorless and clear. On the palate, a sugary citrus-like sweetness jumped into the mouth along with a firm acidity, followed by an astringent bitterness from the back of the tongue😊. Finally, after the astringent bitterness, the sweetness of the wasanbon again appeared on the tip of the tongue😎. It's been quite a while since I've had Nabeshima 😚. It's also my first Junmai Daiginjo, so I'm soaking up the afterglow 🤤.

It has a slight yellowish tint. The aroma is a faint smell of alcohol 😉. The soft mouthfeel conveys a refreshing sweetness. Then a moderate acidity and bitterness spread afterwards 😊. There is no cloudiness in the flavor. You can feel freshness in the aftertaste. It is easy to drink as it has no peculiarities 😋.

It smells very refreshing. It is a clear liquid full of micro bubbles 😊. On the palate, delicate acidity as expected! The taste is completely free of peculiarities and is the type of wine you can gobble up 😍Dangerous ‼️ Slight sweetness. You can also taste a hint of rice flavor. There is also a glimmer of sourness 😎. There's also a freshness that comes from the sake's being unpasteurized 😉. Nothing is left in the mouth after drinking, so you can't help but tilt your gulp for the flavor 😅.

To everyone at Sake-no-Wa! Happy New Year ☺️ My own response remains poor as my work situation has not changed, but I wish you all the best for the new year 🙇. Well, I searched for a suitable sake for the first bottle of the New Year from the sake we have in our house now, and I found ......... ‼️ It's "Katsikoma" which we miraculously got at the end of last year ❗ I'll have it 😚. It is clear and a little yellowish. A faint aroma of junmai sake 🤤. The acidity and astringency came through at first, and the sweetness spread from the tip of the tongue to the whole tongue with a time difference. This sweetness seems to be from wasanbon. I cannot describe it well, but this sweetness finally becomes a fruity taste in the center of the tongue. Then, there is a slight astringent taste at the back of the tongue 😎. I can't think of any sake that can compare to it, it tastes like sake 😉. "Sake that knows true luxury", that's the perfect word for it 😍.

Non-pasteurized Future Sake II: The World of High Temperature Fermentation I think this will be the last sake we will have before the end of the year 😉. Kaze no Mori is one of my favorite sakes and I'm really looking forward to it 😁. There is a sticker on the crown that says "The cork may fly off". I was afraid to raise the crown a little and as soon as I did, it flew off 😰. When I regained my composure and poured it into the glass, the aroma was fresh and strong. The aroma is fresh and strong, with a slight yellow tinge. In the mouth, acidity, young melon sweetness, and a roasty bitterness spread from the tip of the tongue all at once 😆. Soft carbonation, pleasant 😋. The astringency and acidity remain in the mouth, leaving a lingering taste that is enjoyable 😍.

I was able to purchase it in a drawing at my favorite liquor store 😎. It's my reward on the last day of work for the year 😁. What's that? The stopper is tight. It's stuck! I turned it with all my might and it worked. Little by little, little by little, it made a shhhhhhhhhhhh sound. The sound became quieter, so I opened it all the way! I turned it to ......... and it started to leak. And then it came out. I waited a little and opened the cork all the way and found a heap of bubbles in the mouth of the bottle! When I poured it into a gulping cup, it was full of bubbles and I thought it was going to overflow, but it managed to stop just in time. Finally, it was ready to drink😅. It's a light cloudy color with a yellowish tint. It's very light and light, and the carbonation is very strong. The carbonation is a little rough. The taste is completely muscat ❗ Slightly sweet and sour muscat❗ There is no way to stop gulping as it is not disgusting at all 😰. I even got the astringent aftertaste of grapes 🤤.

My favorite turtle sea❗ It smells fresh and sweet 😉. A light yellow color. Light acidity comes in and the freshness spreads. A light melon-like sweetness is transmitted from the tip of the tongue, which turns pungent when it reaches the back of the tongue 😎. Furthermore, after that, the entire mouth was enveloped in a delicious flavor 😋. As the temperature settles down, sweetness starts to appear. After that, it becomes glossy, and the ua-jaw enjoys the lingering glossy taste 😚. By the second day, the flavor has increased 🤤 and finally a melon-like aroma escapes through the nose. I like it 😋.

On my way home from work, I passed by a temporary store as I was changing stations. There I happened to find a bottle of Nihonmori Junmai Daiginjo Nama Sake. It was the cheapest price I had ever seen for Junmai Daiginjo! I bought it on impulse! I will have a sip. It smells like regular sake 😉. When poured, it is clear and has a yellowish tinge. The spiciness and acidity jumped in at once. It's just right. ‼️ The flavor is robust and I don't feel like I'm missing anything. With a time lag, I felt a creamy sheen from the center to the back of my tongue, and an astringent taste appeared further back on the tongue 😎. There is no complexity in the flavor, but each flavor is simple and fully enjoyable. I prefer it when it is well chilled as it gets a little peculiar when the temperature settles down 😋. and on the third day after opening the bottle, the acidity appeared first, followed by the complex sweet and spicy flavors. It is not heavy. Looks like I should have let it sit for a bit 😉.

It is transparent with a slight yellowish tinge. Sweetness came to the palate first 😚. Moderate acidity. I'm trying to figure out what the sweetness is, it's peachy. It's a pleasant sweetness that I want to soak in forever 😋. Uaah, it's refreshing all over the chin. I'm in trouble😰. I'm the type of person who keeps drinking it with a smile on my face 🤤. The peach taste stays with me the whole time 😅. It's also coming out of my nose. How can I stop it without tasting like alcohol at all? It's the most dangerous sake I've ever had 😁.

It has a slight yellow tinge. The scent is very refreshing. ☺️ In the mouth, the pungency and acidity came through at first. Immediately after that, a honey-like sweetness spreads, then the acidity appears again, and finally a lingering bitter taste appears at the back of the tongue 😎. It is a delicious sake that you can feel the changes in flavor and never get tired of drinking 😋.

I noticed it at a liquor store I usually visit and asked about it. I was told that it is the first product of Sake Brooklyn LAB, a project by Sake Brooklyn Brew-ing CO. The brewer is Mr. Ueda, a graduate of Abe Sake Brewery. Let's try it 😚. It is cloudy white, a little spicy, and has a refreshing aroma. In the mouth, it is a gentle drink without much shwashiness. The freshness is strong and gorgeous. The taste is clear, soft, sweet and spicy rather than spicy. It spreads out gradually and the flavor comes through. ☺️ It is so easy to drink that you can easily drink more sake without any tsumami (Japanese rice wine) 😋. After a few days, a soft spiciness was followed by a soft sweetness and then a slight taste of rice 😎.
