It has a sweet taste with acidity that does not tire the drinker. It has a banana-like aroma, and seems prematurely ripe and fresh. A lucky match for Toyo Bijin's Yamadanishiki, I thought! and bought it here and there. Even though it is sweet, the taste is not dull. There are so many different approaches. What is the banana-like aroma? I had wondered what the banana-like aroma was, but now I know for sure ^_^.

The aroma is sweet and mild. The mouthfeel is mild, with no gassy feeling, and a thick texture. The sweetness spreads and at the same time, a slightly bitter aftertaste remains. One step ahead 😭. I prefer it without the gassiness, as I feel the contrast with the bitterness stands out more.

Morishima Omachi! Morishima is known for its gasiness, and once it enters the mouth, the beautiful and full rice flavor comes in. It is the first to run away from the competition. Delicious sake: ‼️ The price is higher than usual, but I'm glad I didn't hesitate to buy it! I had heard about Morishima Yumachi last year and was curious about it. Always a winner, the ace of Morishima's army: 1️⃣❗️ I was curious about it. ⁉️

It has a smoky aroma like sake from a barrel, and the mouthfeel is sweet and tasty like apple honey. The mouthfeel is sweet and tasty like apple honey, and it finishes quickly. It has a stylish taste. It also has a whisky-like taste. The label declares the taste in detail, which I also like ^_^. It is said to be a food sake domanaka, but it is also OK on its own: 🙆‍♀️ For a while now, every time I went to my local liquor store, the price and the label caught my eye. I was thinking of buying it someday, but somehow today. I'm glad I bought this one!

Citrusy and refreshing like a lime 🍋‍🟩 on the palate. It goes down smoothly and cleanly. It seems to blow away the sudden early summer weather. Somehow, Summer Nude by Sincerity Brothers is playing in my brain 🎧. I'm going to get too excited about summer sake. With the sudden change in temperature, I'm lost when it comes to choosing the right drink💦I'm not sure what I want to drink, along with my shallow memory and knowledge, and I'm also worried about the price. I'd like to go back to Kaku-uchi and sip on a variety of sakes. I had an image of dry sake, but this was my first time to try Banshu Ikken. Whatever it is, I'm glad to have found a sake I want to drink in summer: ☺️

Sweet and astringent with hints of white grape, lychee and pineapple. The gassiness is mild. The finish is clean and refreshing. I wanted to drink a sweet and refreshing sake, and I thought, "Yes, let's try Takachiyo! I decided to try Takachiyo! The gasiness was milder than expected, but the Takachiyo was the right choice! When I went to the store, I found a bottle of Mori no Kuma-san Eiko Fuji that had a picture of a cute bear on it. I've never had it, but... I was curious and bought it! So, "Morinokuma-san" is the name of the rice.

There is an oaky feeling right after the smooth mouthfeel, and then it quickly goes sharp. There is also sweetness in the oaky part, but it is the dryness that goes through the nose. Overall, the sweet and sourness is similar to the sweet and sourness of the wine...and if you combine it with strawberries in the fridge, it's kind of nice 🍓. My strawberry marriage following Argo and strawberries✨. Only at this time of the year ^_^ I never drank Yamagata Masamune though I'm a local. I'm glad I could drink it: ❗️ I heated it in the microwave 🍶60cc for 30 seconds. New sensation! The sweetness seems to cover the surface of the mouth 🤩 and a little sourness lingers afterwards. It has a taste both cold and warmed up. ‼️

The first mouthful is sweet and fruity. Then comes the umami, followed by a sweet aftertaste with a bit of astringency ❗️I don't like sweet types that leave a dull aftertaste, but when they leave a dignified aftertaste like this, it's a sight to behold ✨. Behind this helmet, there is no mistaking the sweet mask 😏. I remember years ago, I drank it at 48 fisheries and thought, "Ummm...! I thought, "I've never had this before. I noticed that a liquor store near me sells it, and after hearing that a relative of mine in Iwate who I had not seen in a while recommended it, I started wondering about it again and bought it 😊.

Good morning Nanka Yokai 😃. Yes, yes! Akabu's sweetness is recognized as good sweetness even by J&N standards 😋. It must be a sweet mask for sure 😌 because it's Akabu 🥰.

Jay & Nobby, these days when I drink sweet sake, I'm wondering if it meets the J &N standards. w It's a good sweetness. ☺️ I think it will be acceptable to the old-fashioned sake drinker ^_^.

I was curious about Ippaku Suisei. I was caught by the last one and bought it temporarily because it was one of the most affordable 💰. What is this outer bag? Is it for fashionable use? Is there an intention? It has the ICHIHAKUSUISUISEI logo on it, and my collecting habit makes a fuss, so I don't throw it away. The aroma is fluffy, juicy, tropical 🏝️ and the taste is sweet and juicy, but there is also acidity, which is not seductive but sharp. The aftertaste is also sweet and refreshing✨. I know I'm going off on a tangent here, but I sometimes get Ichibaku Suisei mixed up with Hakurakusei in my head. I've never had Hakurakusei and I'm curious about it 🌟.

Morishima! Lightly gassy, yogurt-like sweetness and rice flavor. It has a hard texture. The aftertaste is slightly bitter with a hint of sweetness. How was it compared to the Miyamanishiki junmai ginjo I drank before? It is good to be able to look back. Whatever it is, it's delicious 😋.

I took a sip of only the supernatant, not realizing it was nigorigo. It was delicious, with a gaseous, dry, light taste. I always try to drink nigori only with the supernatant, but I thought it was not so good on its own. I tried mixing and drinking it. The concentration is amazing😍The balance of sweetness and spiciness is good and the aftertaste is sharp. It's not like water, but it goes down very smoothly 💦. Eiko Fuji was always recommended by AI. I'm from my home prefecture, but this is the first time I've had it. Nice 😊 I also like the fact that it's a combination of Haenuki and Ogawa yeast👍. The label is lively🎉.

It is said to be unfiltered and bottled sake. It is left at room temperature and is probably chilled at this time of the year. What is it about the sake that gives it a sense of maturity like that of a barrel? The impression is dry and lingering, with little sweetness. After drinking Banjo Kotobuki Akagane, I have been enjoying this kind of sake as a closing drink.

First time I had trouble opening the bottle 💦 but it's fun 😆. "Ah-ramasa, are we ready to go?" Exciting words from the local guesser liquor store✨ How could I not buy this! Out came the Flax Cat Spark 😼. It's been about 2 weeks since I bought it? I opened the bottle on Friday night when my mind was free to think about when I would drink it! Spark at 11 degrees. I thought it would be sweet and sour and gentle? I thought it would be, but it's a yankee cat! It's cute, but it scratches you. Along with sweetness and acidity, there is bitterness. It seems to be playing with gas. The aroma is somewhat chemical. It has a chemical smell. I guess it is a good expression. It was an enjoyable time to open the bottle, not only because it tasted good, but also because we were able to experience various things 😆. Shinmasa, all of them are so unique and have various faces.

Hi Nanka Yokai 😃 Flax Cat Spark! I was so impressed with how good it was when I first drank it 🥹 that it was #1 on the J&N rank 🥇 for a while 🤗 now I drink too many things 😅 not sure what's #1 though 😆.

Hi Jay & Nobby! I see that you have won the prestigious J &N rank first prize. ❗️ I was surprised to see that you can make such a sake! I was so surprised and it was delicious 😃. I'm sure it's difficult to rank first, as my tastes change from time to time depending on my mood, environment, etc. ^_^ There are so many delicious sakes out there! I want to learn from you and drink too much 🫡🍶.

I finished drinking on the 4th day 😼😼The yankee cat gradually mellowed out and felt more comfortable with the goronnya😊. I am even more deeply moved when I think of the feeling of being scratched 🥰.

The aroma is like a hard blue melon, and the mouthfeel is characterized by a gaseous sensation; modern. The taste is dry without sweetness, and finishes with a light, refreshing finish. Morishima is conquering well this season: ❗️ This is a seasonal sake that comes in different rice varieties, so I want to experience it as I gather information about the rice. What are the characteristics of Hitachi-Nishiki? You mean that it is the characteristic of the rice that makes it so refreshing. What is it that makes it gassy or not? If you look it up on AI, the information will come up in some way. You have to experience the taste to know. I want to connect information and experience well and enjoy it 🍶. Morishima, I finally got it at the store where I really wanted to buy it! I'm so glad ☺️ was the last one 💦.

The nose has melon, banana and peach. The mouthfeel has a smooth, tart texture and a fluffy sweetness. It is delicious! And the aftertaste is light and refreshing. I like the taste, the name, and the label. The raised cap of Brahma is also good. This is one of my favorites that was recommended to me by a barista who recommended it to me. Thanks 🙏.

Gorgeous aroma. It is the most pleasant aroma I have ever had. The mouthfeel is sweet and sour like white grapes, and the alcohol taste is very pleasant. The aftertaste is astringent and lingers gently. The alcohol content is 13%. It is not that strong, but the taste is delicate and powerful. Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. It's been about 3 weeks since I bought it? I was hesitant about when to open the bottle, but finally opened it! I didn't even take off the amiami packaging, I took good care of it. The bottle is so stylish! I'm in love with it ✨The stopper is also cool with glass 🤩. The next lot is said to be Dewa Sanzan 🌾. Second day of opening the bottle. The aroma has calmed down gently. The astringency of the aftertaste is pleasant, like Delaware with a taste of grape skin 🍇This is also a pleasant taste: ☺️ A medium shallow roasted Guatemala: 🇬🇹⁉️

Koei Kiku is a brand that La jomon has recently started a relationship with. At one time there was only a 1-sho bottle available, and I hesitated, but when the 4-gou bottle was restocked, I bought it without hesitation! As the owner said, it was fresh! The gassiness is modest. The freshness is followed by a fresh and refreshing sweetness. Slight bitterness in the aftertaste. It's a delicious liquid 🫠. Looks like it would be suitable for a sacred place like a sacred sake. Actually, I made a big mistake. I only looked at the label and didn't realize it was a draft sake and left it in the car for about a day on a warm Sunday💦I was nervous to see what would happen to it, but what if it was actually even better than this 😵. I couldn't stop at the beginning of the week 🍸.

The day I felt the spring breeze, we met again 😂The sake that started it all for me, "Kazan Zozen". Kazezan Zozan, the sake that started it all for me. I recommend drinking it at room temperature! I had it in the fridge, so I started drinking it when it was about snow cold. It has a sharp citrus and freshness from the first sip. Slightly gassy. Delicious! However, it certainly seems a little different from last year. Drink slowly and the temperature rises to room temperature. The mouthfeel becomes mellow and sweet. It tastes like white grapes. However, the sharpness of the aftertaste is not so different! Last year, it was fire-aged, but I remember that it had a sweeter sake punch on the palate and a sharp aftertaste. This year, the crispness of the aftertaste leaves a refreshing lemon-like acidity. I wonder if it will be available in the next month or so. I'm also looking forward to the fire-brewing. I wonder if I can buy it at the right time? I couldn't find the character for "sozan" in Kazan-zozan, so I searched for it on the Internet. I liked this character. (4th photo)

First time in my life 🍶 I had fun 🍶 ‼️ I probably missed one. Aradama's nigori sake, Bondara. Bondara" is a dialect of "Tsurara". I've never used it, though. I had an image of nigori sake as sweet or milky, but BONDARA was clear and light! I thought Aradama's nigori sake was supposed to be mellow, but I didn't expect it to be like this. ‼️ It's like drinking fresh melted water from the bottara. (Not that I've ever drank water with melted icicles in it 💦) I'd like to visit Kaku-uchi again sometime.
