My daughter was supposed to go home with her boyfriend, but they both contracted corona, making this year's GW holiday a bit lonely. Tonight I am quietly tasting "Kako" by myself, which I had prepared to drink with him whom I will meet for the first time. Eigo Kawashima's "Sake to Tears, Man and Woman" is playing in my mind. It has a very savory taste and has changed my concept of sake. I was deeply moved as I could feel the brewer's thoughts, commitment, and even pride.

Good evening, Mr. Calimero! Your daughter and her boyfriend have contracted corona and I miss them so much 😅 I was looking forward to seeing you. Have a good drink and let Eigo heal you 😋.

Good evening, ma-ki-. I miss you since you are my only daughter: ☺️ My boyfriend was quite nervous about meeting me and now he might be relieved (lol). Thank you. Kako and Eigo-san are healing me: ☺️

Hi Calimero 😃. I know it's nerve wracking to meet him for the first time 😅. But I think I can relax if I have a toast 🥂 at the birthplace! I'm looking forward to the next opportunity 😊.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! If you suddenly said "please give me your daughter" at our first meeting, I would be knocked down 😅. I am very much looking forward to the day when we can toast peacefully in the birthplace😊.

This is a gift from a colleague at work. It's a very nice gift as I rarely see it at the liquor stores I'm familiar with 💕. The fruity ginjo aroma is pleasant 🍏. Fruity freshness, sweetness and umami in harmony, with a clear and clean aftertaste with no clutter. The balance of sweetness, freshness, umami, and a hint of bitterness is exquisite and complete.

I found a gold lettering with the word "Collage" painted on it in the back of a liquor store fridge. I got the last one ✨. A great gift for my Fukushima Prefecture-loving dad♪♪ The aroma of the ginjo is gentle. It has a soft and elegant mouthfeel with a rich sweetness and umami flavor, and a clear acidity and a slight bitterness. Collage = Best balance. It has a deep, deep and rich taste 🌸.

It has a different impression from Sono Kangiku and Eiko Fuji's "Aizan". It has a soft sweetness and umami, with a lingering, distinctive acidity, and a refreshing finish. It has a very light taste and is enjoyable even for those who do not like sake.

Fruity and gentle aroma. Aoyama's full-bodied sweetness and umami are complemented by a refreshing acidity 🫧. The lingering taste is exquisitely bitter and tightens the flavor. The finish is very elegant and mellow 🌸.

While it has the characteristics of a chrysanthemum, it has a sweet and sour taste with a hint of bitterness, and the overall taste is sharp and dry rather than fruity 🫧. Personally, I prefer sweet and fruity kangiku, but this is delicious 🍸🌙.

Good evening, Mr. Carimello! I've heard that Juhikinmu is very dry 🎵. I have a sweet tooth too, but your review about it being delicious even without the sweet-tart chrysanthemum makes me look forward to drinking it more and more 😋.

カリメロ 
Good evening, ma-Ki. Personally, I felt it had a dry taste. Kangiku has a strong impression of being "sweet and fruity," and I like that very much, but the core of sake brewing never wavers, and even if it is dry, its taste will not change, so please look forward to it: ☺️

My wife chose LAPIN because of the adorable rabbit 🐇. You can sense a slightly sweet ginjo aroma. After the modest acidity, the gentle sweetness and umami spreads softly, and the pleasant aftertaste makes me feel happy 🍸✨. Chiebijin is wonderfully delicious 🍸💕 You must have chosen it just because of the pretty label, but your insight to see through to the deliciousness. It's as if they can see right through me and I can't do anything wrong (sweat)!

Sunny Day. It's a White Day gift 2 🍸💕Origarami, exclusive to Koyama Shoten🫧🫧. It is full of gentle sweetness, deliciousness & a shwashy fizzy feeling 🍸🌸. Among the Kangiku series, it seems to have a sharp, dry finish rather than the fruity 🍊. This one is delicious as well♪♪♪ It is a refreshing drink and I think it goes well with any food. 🍽️

This is the first time in my life that I am a Tamitsu. My wife gave it to me as a gift for White Day 💝. It has a sweet and refreshing ginjo aroma with a fruity flavor 🍈. Transparent sweetness and umami spread through the palate, with a slight bitterness that finishes crisp and clean 🍸✨. A very tasty sake with a clean, dry and pleasant aftertaste. I prefer sake with a dry taste, but I don't think our marriage relationship should be dry 💔. I try to express my gratitude in words everyday so that my wife doesn't suddenly declare a mature divorce 😊💦.

Good evening, Mr. Carimero! How nice that your wife gave you sake for White Day ✨. I've received Tamitsu a few times and it's delicious 😋. It's an important way to show your appreciation 😊. Good sake time ✨

MA-KI-. Good evening. Thank you very much. After consulting with the owner, he chose a sake that perfectly matches my taste and gave it to me as a gift. I am very happy with that thoughtfulness♪ Tamitsu has a refreshing taste and is very easy to drink. Even though we are husband and wife, we are still strangers, so I think the secret of a happy marriage is to express our feelings to each other in words. I hope you too, ma-ki-, enjoy a relaxing moment with a delicious drink 🍸✨.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. Thanks for your comments. Tamitsu, tonight we are drinking it mixed with ori😊. It enhances the flavor of the rice and is also delicious 🍸✨✨. My wife can't drink so she's sitting next to me eating her favorite baked goods😅.

Fruity and gentle aroma🍊🍎. The rich sweetness and flavor of Aizan is complemented by a refreshing acidity, which is then tightened by an exquisite bitterness🍊🍎. Red Diamond's elegant and mellow flavor is nothing short of amazing. 🍸🌾. You can't go wrong with any of the brands in the Kangiku series, they are all consistent and delicious sake 🍸. The juicy, fruity taste will surely put even Jenny from the 80's rock band 🎸 "Juicy Fruit's" hit song "Jenny's in a Good Mood" in a good mood🌸.

Saga Prefecture is a memorable place that I first visited to support my daughter who participated in the Inter-High School Championships. It is also the birthplace of Egashira 2:50. Egashira is a comedian whose likes and dislikes are clearly divided, but I, being an "ataoka," love him (laughs). Everyone already knows how delicious Nabeshima is, so my only comment is "umashira~". It has a mellow, fresh flavor that reminds me of tropical fruit. It is a finish that you can taste from the bottom of your heart🍸✨✨. The cutting edge of modern taste, if you don't put the brakes on yourself, you'll drink too much 😅.

Gotemba Ishikawa Brewery is a new sake brewery that was created in January 2025. Fuji and "Gotemba Koshihikari" (rice) were attractive to me, so I bought some at the brewery🗻. Fuji & limited quantity serial number 41 (drunk). I'm kind of excited♪♪ The taste has a slight sweetness, followed by an alty feeling, and then an astringent & bitter aftertaste that passes down the throat 🍶. If you like classical sake, this is the sake for you 🍶.

Aroma: Sweet and tart. After the soft sweetness and piquant acidity, it goes down your throat smoothly without any aliveness or bitterness🍊🌾. Fresh & refreshing, very easy to drink and very tasty 🍸. The theme of the flavor is expressed by the color of the label, which is cool. I also like the fact that it is wrapped in plastic to protect it from UV rays. Cosy and I love it 🍸✨.

Tenei Village, where Matsuzaki Brewery is located, is surrounded by rich nature and beautiful countryside, just like Moomin Valley, with very beautiful scenery 🌳. Gorgeous aroma. It has an elegant sweetness and umami flavor that fills the mouth, with a slight spiciness that gives it a crisp, clean taste. It has a sweeter taste than last year🍎. The rich, yet uncluttered taste gives the impression of Hirotogawa's high quality. The water from Ten'ei Village and the deliciousness of the rice are expressed in a very nice finish. Sake from Fukushima Prefecture is truly delicious 🍸✨.

Fruity, subtle aroma. From its elegant sweetness and acidity, the tight bitterness is like the taste of sweet and sour love. However, I have no experience of sweet and sour love... The bitterness gives it a crisp and refreshing taste, making it a great flavor to enjoy with food. Today is the Doll's Festival 🎎. I'm enjoying "kangiku" while eating steak with garlic sauce made by my wife and bitter wild vegetables sent by my daughter 🍸✨. It goes surprisingly well with hina arare (rice crackers).

This is the first time in my life that I have been in Jiran. It's a souvenir for myself from my trip to Nagasaki♪♪ It was on my list of sake I wanted to drink. I finally got my wish and was able to drink it 🍸✨I'm so happy ☺️ Lactic sweet aroma. It has a soft sweetness, followed by a sourness and a moderate spiciness, with a slight bitterness and a crisp aftertaste 🍸. It is a refreshing sake with a taste that can be enjoyed with a meal✨. I had an image of dry sake in my mind, but "Hiran Classic" is modern, easy to drink and very tasty.

This is the first time in my life that I have been to Yokoyama. I went to Nagasaki for a tour of Gunkanjima (Battleship Island). I took the tram and bought it at the Yoshida Sake Shop closest to my hotel 🍸. It has a very sweet aroma. The taste is very sweet, and when you put it in your mouth, you can taste the sourness, and then the mellow sweetness and umami. It tastes fresh and fruity 🍊 and refreshing. The conversation with the proprietress of the sake store was a pleasant memory of my trip to Nagasaki 😊.

ma-ki-. Good evening 🌙. Thank you for your comment. I have always wanted to try Yokoyamaya Tobiaran. If you have a chance, please give it a try. Gunkanjima is worth seeing. I recommend it because it has an emotional impact that cannot be conveyed through images.
