It is too refreshing when served cold, so warm it up to make it a little richer! The aroma and taste are mellow and just right for a mealtime sake!

The aroma is mild with a creamy melon scent. In the mouth it has a moderate acidity and sweetness with a clean finish. A good saké and a tasty one at that!

I found a 4 year old bottle of "Matsumoto" at a liquor store. I usually don't buy it (lol). The liquor store owner said it was a great bottle because it had been stored at room temperature for 3 years. I was so interested in the work of Mr. HIDEHIKO MATSUMOTO before he quit that I bought it without a second thought. The aroma was subdued, but there was no hint of old age, and the taste was beautiful with a slight acidity and bitterness. The slight acidity and bitterness are beautifully balanced. To be continued at Nichinichi Shuzo: 。。。。

The aroma is fresh and melon-like, and as you put it in your mouth, the flavor spreads further and disappears quickly, as one would expect.

This is a low-priced, low-cost product that costs about 1,000 yen less than Kamonishiki, a well-known packaged sake! The aroma is fruity with a hint of the original rice ingredients. The mouthfeel is mellow, but the feeling that passes through the nose and down the throat is refreshing and pleasant.

The aroma is of lactic acidity behind a gorgeous floral scent. The mouthfeel is tart enough to cling to the tongue, with acidity, sweetness, and some bitterness lingering in the aftertaste.

A series of sake Meimonzakekai (sake connoisseurs) meetings in honor of Risshun (February 4). From Tochigi, Kaika Daiichi and Senkou! Freshly made, shipped first thing in the morning! The aroma is mild, the mouthfeel in Sengoku is less sour and sweet, and the dry finish is easy to drink and refreshing.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Ars😄. I drank Senkou and Kaika Risshun Asashibori last year: 😄♫ I remember the Senkou morning pressing was very tasty 😋 but this year I have bought too much nigori sake so I had to pass on it 😥.

Thanks for the reply, Tsubu. (^^) It is indeed great that you drink both. How much is nigori? (lol)

The aroma is discreet but lactic acid. The mouthfeel is so refreshing and unusual (in a good way) that you may think it is water.

The aroma gives the impression of a light, refreshing acidity, and the taste has a smooth first attack with an unctuous finish. The overall impression is cohesive. It is a good choice for a warmed sake.

Sentori Disco United Arrows collaboration for Christmas! Unlike the regular Snowball, this is an assemblage of two different types. It has a sweet aroma, a hint of gas in the mouth, and a sweet aftertaste. Delicious!

As one would expect from a company that uses five different kinds of assemblages and turtle tails, it is very intricate. The price is reasonable, but...

The color is yellowish, though I usually don't care for the color. The aroma has a buttery, yogurt-like nuance. The mouthfeel is smooth and easy to drink. It has a slightly sweet taste with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. The alcohol content is high. On the third day, I felt a deep flavor. Now that I think about it, I wonder if the aroma is diacetyl?

Yellow, one of the Five Series. White malted rice used for shochu is used. Both taste and aroma are citrus and plum flavors characteristic of citric acid. Tastes different from others.
