Today I had a bit of a bad day and I was feeling a little cranky so I decided to let the booze solve it 😓. So I'm setting off fireworks to change my mood 🌻. The top notes are melon and white peach, not so strong. When you take a sip, the same melon and white peach aroma as the top aroma spreads, then a slightly stronger acidity due to the summer sake, then an elegant sweetness and umami, and as the name suggests due to the low alcohol content of 11.5%, it is smooth and all of these are in good harmony 😊. There is almost no gasiness and the bitterness at the end is not too much to worry about, so as the name suggests, it was very easy to drink ✨. This is just my personal opinion, but I thought it tasted similar to Senkou's Kabutomushi, and I thought it was more refreshing with less gas and bitterness of Kabutomushi 🤔. ↑I know I'm repeating myself, but it's just my "personal" impression 😅

Good evening, Mr. Chirsta😄. Did you have a successful fireworks display? I hope you feel better and refreshed and silky smooth...☺️ people live in many ways, but it's okay to turn to alcohol at such times 🥰I hope you can smile tomorrow ✨.

Hot, hot, hot 💢. And with the humidity coming along, it's just plain uncomfortable 💢. In times like this, let's let the alcohol solve the problem 🍶. So I opened a bottle of this sake that I had stocked in the fridge 🍾. When I went to my favorite liquor store, I wanted to buy a bottle of Kudoki-age's 150th anniversary limited edition sake, but I was told that it was sold out in a blink of an eye. Now, let's look at the taste. First of all, the aroma is grape. Unlike the other two I drank last time, "Tonatsu musume" and "summer blue", I think the smell of alcohol is a little stronger 🤔. I'm told it's an ogara-mi, so I'll start with the supernatant first 😋. The first sip has a sweet and tasty grape-like flavor that spreads quickly as the name suggests, and you can immediately feel the tangy, slightly carbonated taste 🫧. The lingering taste is short to medium and I think there is little bitterness. The sweetness and flavor of the grape is more pronounced when mixed with the cage, and as other reviewers have said, it feels like a Fatty Grape to me and I gobbled it up 😊. The sweetness of the grapes is more pronounced, and as other reviewers have said, it feels like a Fatty Fat grape and I gobbled it up! I bought a bottle of SHUWAN, the hottest one right now 👀.

Today is Father's Day! My child gave me an origami gift that he made at daycare: ☺️ And my wife said she'll buy him a bottle of his favorite liquor, so I chose this one. I'm not sure what to do with it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. First of all, from the aroma, it smells like a ripe fruit like melon, but not so much of a top shelf aroma. Then, when you take a sip, you will be surprised by the fruity melon aroma and the delicious rice flavor that fills your mouth 😋. The alcohol content was a little strong, but the lingering sweetness and umami flavor camouflaged it well, so I didn't get tired of drinking it, but it was a very impressive sake with a lot of volume 🍶.

I was stressed to the max from work and the humidity, so I couldn't resist opening a bottle of the limited edition sake I bought at Mori Sake Brewery's brewery opening 😅! This one is brewed with "HY2" yeast and their specialty rice "Nikkomaru" 😊. I drank it at the brewery opening, but I could only drink one cup, so I drank it slowly and generously in a wine glass at home 🍷. First of all, the top aroma is a bit like melon and pear 🤔. Then, when you take a sip, you feel a nice sweetness first, then the umami of the rice spreads rapidly, and since it is unfiltered raw, there is a sense of gas and some acidity 😊. The sweetness, umami, acidity, and gasiness are in perfect harmony, and the lingering taste is medium to slightly long, finishing with a pleasant mild bitterness 😋. What sake would you recommend? If I were asked what sake I would recommend, I could immediately answer "Hiran".

The temperature should not be so high, but the dampness and humidity make it uncomfortable to the max💢. At times like this, summer sake is the only way to go. 🏖️ So I opened this bottle 🍾. I was told to be careful when opening the bottle, so I took about 5 minutes to open it carefully😅. The first thing I noticed was that the top aroma was banana, and when I took a sip, I was hit by a strong gassy feeling and the banana-like taste that I felt in the rum and top aroma 🫧. I felt the richness from the nigori-derived rice flavor. The sweetness is more subdued than I expected and the acidity is not that great, it's pretty dry 🤔. The lingering taste is short, not long, and it was a slightly dry nigori shuwashu summer sake with a medium level of bitterness and a quick kick 🤔☺️ I prefer a little more sweetness, but this one is totally fine and delicious 😄.

I have also succeeded in capturing one after another. ☺️ When I opened the bottle, the first thing I noticed was a grapefruit-like citrus aroma and not much of a rice aroma 🍶. As for the taste, the acidity had a huge impact, with refreshing lemon and grapefruit-like flavors penetrating my nose🍋. It was so refreshing and refreshing that it could be called a lemon squash for adults 😊. Postscript 3rd day after opening the bottle The acidity has settled down, the corners have been removed, and the sweetness has become more noticeable 🤔. The summer sake feeling has diminished, but this is still the same 😊.

I was wondering what to buy when I realized I was on the verge of the 100th check-in, but I decided on this one, although it is 10 times short, because it is the 10th anniversary of Mitsuo Yamakawa 🍶. I've always been curious about Uncle Mitsuo Yamakawa, the label with a sense of melancholy is so cute 😊. As for the taste, it started with a fruity ginjo aroma, and when I put it in my mouth, a fruity aroma like white peaches filled my mouth, then I felt a beautiful sweetness and acidity, and slowly as time went by, the deliciousness of the rice spread. Anyway, it was a very satisfying sake with a beautiful yet strong alcohol taste, rich and full-bodied 😊. I will still continue to explore my favorite sake (ง°`ro°)ง

The alcohol content is strong at 17%, but the sweetness and umami nicely camouflage it, and the mouthfeel is slightly fruity. The nigori flavor is as expected, and the more time goes by, the more it increases gradually 😊. It is not only sweet, but also classic with a sweetness that is not clingy, and although it is nigori, it is a refreshing summer sake that you will find yourself guzzling it down!

The two bottles of Hiran I bought yesterday didn't arrive by the end of the day, so I opened this bottle to review the flavor some other time! Hiro-san raved about it, so I had high expectations even before opening the bottle 😊. I didn't know that Hiragana Takachiyo has a flavor concept on the label 🧐. This one was inspired by a banana, and it is exactly as it sounds, the top aroma is banana itself 🍌. The first sip almost knocked me out with the violence of its sweet and fruity banana-like aroma 🥊. The flavor and the chili gassiness were intertwined well, and I didn't feel that much acidity. After enjoying the umami and gasiness, I felt a slightly stronger bitterness, and then it faded away. ☺️ The silver Summer Blue I drank the other day was also so good that I jumped up and down, but this one is just as good, and once you start drinking it, it's a dangerous sake that you can't stop 😊. Hiragana takachiyo, you should be afraid of it 😋.

The long-awaited brewery opening at Mori Sake Brewery! However, it was raining and I was sick with a cold. The rain calmed down a little in the afternoon, but I decided to drink only the limited-edition brewery-birakihiraki sake. I knew Classic was only sold in Nagasaki Prefecture, but I had no idea there was a nigori version 😊. I thought it was a little less sweet and more nigori, with the sweetness and acidity that you can only get from the "Hiramaran" 🤔. As described, the rice flavor is rich, and it's a refreshing and crisp sake that is perfect for summer. ☺️ I bought an advance ticket so I bought this as a souvenir and will study the difference in taste over the next few days 😊.

I had a chance to go back to my parents' house, so I opened this bottle 🍶. As soon as I opened the bottle, the sweet pineapple-like aroma convinced me that there was no doubt about it, and when I took a sip, I felt like I was in a tropical resort with the incredible pineapple aroma and gas 😊. The fruity aroma lingers for a long time and then fades away with a slightly strong bitterness at the end. ☺️ My grandfather, who is more of a dry sake drinker, thought it was an unusual sake, and we both finished the 4-gouple bottles 😂.
