Mimurosugi菩提酛 山田錦原酒生酒無濾過

コタロー
The nose is sour, rice, and a little grapey. On the palate, it is dry with fruity flavors of chili rice, muscat and apple. However, rather than being crisp and clean, the rice flavor permeates through, and the bitter taste finishes off gently. As the temperature rises, it also has a rummy flavor. I think the complexity is more pronounced than the Romain series. But it is still a Mimuro cedar with a clear taste. It's complex...but it's not a cloying taste...it's a layered complexity. It's like a round reverberation in the mouth. As usual, the low alcohol content was appreciated, and I enjoyed it very much.

This is the one that I end up buying because of its extremely cool...no longer cold appearance 🧊. The aroma is a hint of grape-like sweetness. I think it's sweeter than last year, but less acidic. The next day, the chili-chilis are gone. The next day, the chirichiri-ness disappears, and the nose is filled with the usual Akabu-like aroma of sweet and sour. There is also a fruity flavor like peaches and apples. At the end, there is a soft bitterness. The contrast between sweetness and bitterness may be surprisingly noticeable, but it may be just right to gobble up. It was a delicious taste that I appreciated on a hot day 🍶. I've also included the eel ramen I got the other day. It was the first time for me to try 100% eel broth, but it was delicious, with the aroma of eel and the richness of the broth combined with a touch of savoriness 🍜.

Recently, we have been seeing a lot of Genzai-san. It is a brand named after a retainer of the Aizu clan. The aroma has a slight sourness and rummy flavor. When you take a sip, it is quite a bit chili. The sweetness and richness of the rice gradually come to the side of the tongue...I wonder...if many sake have the image of the flavor spreading horizontally, this one seems to spread vertically. I can't explain it, but.... As it rolls around in the mouth, the temperature rises and a bit of bitterness comes out. The temperature is 15 degrees Celsius, but it feels like 13 degrees Celsius to me. It has a full-bodied flavor with a slight bitterness, and is light, clear, crisp, and delicious 🍶.

コタロー
This year I want to make Umeshu (plum wine) with Sake! and found some for fruit wine 👀 but not commonly sold around here... hmmm.... Hmmm...? I thought that the sake that the "15 degrees is water 🙂‍↔️" people drink at Sake-no-Wa would have something over 20 degrees. So, here it is. And this year, for the first time in 5 years? And this year, for the first time in 5 years, the temperature is over 22 degrees Celsius. Before that, I tasted a little 🍶 at room temperature. The aroma is of rich, rich rice with a salty flavor like mirin (sweet sake) or mitarashi (sweet sake). When I took a sip, I could not help but say, "Wow, it's delicious! I exclaimed. I could still taste the saltiness, but there was also a sweetness like a Western wine...not quite fruity, but sweet, with a rich umami that made the sides of my tongue squeak and my cheeks drop ✨. To be honest, I was expecting it to be harder to drink, but it wasn't. I was expecting it to be more difficult to drink, but it wasn't. It has a heat that comes on when swallowing, and the temperature in the mouth drops immediately afterwards. The sensation of heat when swallowing and the temperature of the mouth dropping immediately afterwards? It is delicious even when it is warmed up...but if I don't drink enough of it, I will run out of plum wine...next time, I want to drink it normally! It's a fresh sake, but I don't have room in my fridge for a bottle of plum wine. But I learned at Sake-no-wa that Tamagawa can be stored at room temperature, so it should be fine! Looking forward to the finished product 🥳.

I went to a liquor store and saw a tasting event. I was allowed to taste four different kinds in turn, and I bought one because it was interesting that it tasted quite different from the three I had drunk before this one. Wassa means "mischief," and it seems to be a test brew that is only brought to tasting events. The aroma is not very strong? It has a slight grapefruit-like acidity. When you drink it, the sourness spreads immediately after a slight chilli sensation! But there is also a firm sweetness, and at the end, there is bitterness. The flavor gradates, then disappears after a squeak on the side of the tongue. When I tasted it, I thought it had more of a yogurt feeling, but when I drank it at home, it wasn't so bad. After a few days, the chili is gone, but the sizzling sweet and sourness remains thick, like apricot or plum. The balance of the flavor is very well balanced, and yet the aftertaste is crisp and easy to drink. It's delicious and interesting.

Sake shop's hanpukai's, Retro's direct pumping light nigori ver. The aroma is clean and fruity, like grapefruit and muscat. When the supernatant is added, it is drier than the aroma suggests! It has a light muscat, rice flavor, and a bit of bitterness. When mixed, it becomes cohesive, with rice and maybe pear. I also sense some calpis. The end is light, fruity and dry. Sweet and sour dry and delicious. After a few days, the taste becomes more cohesive with some chili. It is silky and mildly sweet and acidic grapefruit soda with a fresh yeast-like acidity. 🍋‍🟩 I think this is an Edogari version of last year's Modern Oumachi, but it still tastes a bit different. Both are delicious though ✨

The aroma is rice and rum. When you drink it, it is chili! The taste is slowly and gently rich and umami. It has a fresh mouthfeel even though it has been laid down to rest, and although it is not fruity, it is somehow gorgeous. The sweetness of the rice is also present, but with a light bitterness, and it finishes quickly and crisply. It has a rich flavor, but you can't help but go on drinking it. After a few days, it becomes mellow and mild. It is well-balanced and delicious. After a few more days, the alcohol taste disappears and it becomes mellow and clear like peach juice......also delicious! It reminded me of the owner of a yakitori restaurant I once went to, who said that he doesn't serve yakitori now because it is too delicious and the food would lose out. Well...that's one way of thinking. Indeed, the sake itself seemed to stand out more on its own than during the meal.

Last year, it was also used as a low-alcoholic drink on a hot day. This year, UA ver. The aroma is sour, with a slight alcohol-like rummy taste. When you drink it, you can feel light citrus, light carbonation 🫧, rumney, orange soda 🍊 and rice in the back, and juicy acidity on the side of your tongue. Although it is 9 degrees, it is not too light and satisfying. A few days later, I thought it was sweet and sour like mandarin oranges until a few days ago, but it's now clear on the palate and the bitterness is accentuated by the watery taste. It's like lemonade 🍋 with a little leftover chili, a clean citrus sweetness, and a lemon peel-like bitterness at the end. I enjoyed this year's refreshing citrus soda 🍊🍋 as expected.

Kamikawa Taisetsu with white koji: ❄️ It's getting hotter and when I hear "white koji" I just pick it up. The aroma is sour with a hint of sweetness. When you drink it, it has a pleasant sweet and sour taste with grapefruit and white grape-like acidity and sweetness. It has a smooth mouthfeel that is cut off by a sizzling acidity. The aftertaste is sweet and sour, leaving a lingering sweet and sour aftertaste. After a few days, it seems to have settled down to a slightly sweeter taste. The smooth acidity is still there, making it easy to drink even on a humid day. I think the acidity was a little more noticeable right after opening the bottle, but overall it was light and gentle. I think the acidity was a bit more pronounced right after opening the bottle, but overall it is a light, gentle sweet and sour sake, perfect for this time of year. I enjoyed it to the end ✨.

It has the same specs as the green one 🟢 that was available when it was new, but apparently the yeast and rice production area have changed. The aroma is sour and also a little greenish and fresh, like herbs. On the palate, it is quite chili🫧. The full-bodied flavor seeps in, and then comes a lemony, herbal, and slightly acidic taste. After the light flavor spreads, there is a hint of bitterness, and the sensations converge at a dizzying pace. Overall, it is quite dry. My memory is a little fuzzy, but I think it might be more refreshingly dry than the last time I tasted it. This one is delicious, too. After the next day, it becomes more cohesive. It becomes dry, a little bit calm and smooth. The acidity is very tasty, and the richness and bitterness gradually permeate the taste. The sweetness does not become stronger even after a few days. After a week or so of not drinking it for a while, the sweetness and bitterness increased. I think I like it better if I drink it earlier, as it has a slow, light, and deliciously dry taste. This one was also delicious!

I was scared to open the bottle, but it was perfectly fine and docile. Aroma: sourness, sake lees, grapefruit? When you drink it, it's not very lively, but there is a slight carbonation. It's deliciously schwashy. The fresh sweetness and sourness are on the tongue, and as it rolls around, you can feel the light and rich flavor. At the end, the bitterness comes in gradually. A delicious, active nigori with a refreshing aftertaste that is perfect for drinking 🫧. Even after a few days, when the fizz is gone, it is still crisp and cohesive. The supernatant alone is more acidic and has a clear, delicious aftertaste, but when mixed, it becomes silky and mellow. I was happy to be able to drink it this year, although it seems that last year there was quite a small amount!

I bought IDEHA together with Epokey, which I drank earlier, and opened this bottle immediately because Epokey was so good. The aroma is... maybe grapefruit, white grape type? When you take a sip, it's smooth without any chili. Light grape sweetness and acidity pass while flowing smoothly. It disappears with a soft, lingering taste of rice. It is like a wine. It is soft on the palate and goes down smoothly. It was a waste of time to finish it... but it was a delicious sake that was soon gone.

It is from a liquor store's hanpukai. Aroma is grapefruit, with some sports drink flavors, like Pocari. A bit of schwash, grapefruit, and potassium in the supernatant. Clear but juicy and fruity. Maybe a sultry lychee with a tight acidity. When you mix it, the soft mash comes. There is a squashiness, and when you bite into the rice, it melts and a refreshing fruity flavor like muscat overflows. The aftertaste is a slight bitterness of salty lychee. The rice flavor makes it very refreshing and juicy, and since it is only 500ml, it is so delicious that I drank it all in an instant!

I saw this series at Sake-no-Wawa and wanted to try it. The aroma is like a honey lemon that makes your mouth water 🍋 The flavor alone is already delicious. When I take a sip, I can feel a slight chilli. It has a concentrated flavor, with a honeyed grapefruit-like acidity, a light bitterness, and a dense sweetness all living together. But it is not heavy at all, and the condensed taste spreads on the tongue with a sizzling sensation. When you swallow it, you can feel a sharp acidity. It's amazingly delicious...! Leave a little and enjoy the taste change with each sip. (I just had a cold and could only take one sip at a time.) 2 days later The transparency has increased? The acidity has calmed down a bit, and it is a slushy type. After 5 days The rice flavor is still there, but the citric acid-like sourness is still there. This is addictive... After 1 week A little more bitter? I like to finish it in a few days! No wonder so many people are chasing it 🍶.

The aroma is sweet tangerine 🍊. When you drink it, it has a richness like mandarin oranges and honey, with a hint of sourness. It has a richness like a noble sake, perhaps because it has been aged for a while. But it's not too strong and has a nice sharpness to it, so it goes down smoothly. It still has a slight tangy taste even after a few days. It may be more tangy than tangy. There is a momentary burst of sweetness, but it dissipates in an instant and flows smoothly. The clarity and drinking comfort is consistent. The kasumi series with its shwashy orikara flavor was delicious, but this one, which is more on the low-alcoholic side but still has a strong flavor, was also delicious.

This is the first time I have had Yamada Nishiki from Yamazan. The aroma is more acidic, muscat, and rice. A little more classical than usual. When you drink it, you get a fresh, woody aroma of muscat on the nose, followed by a light sweetness and a gentle umami flavor. When paired with food, the full-bodied acidity is more perceptible and good! The next day, it has an apple-like acidity and richness. On the first day, I thought it was not so much like Yamazan, but I like this mild acidity. On the third day, the aroma is more citrusy and sour. No chili when you drink it. The taste is fruity but calm, like muscatel, citrus, and mild apple. The richness spreads slowly and the acidity tightens up at the end, and there is a slight alcohol sensation down the throat. It is delicious on its own, but you can enjoy it even more when paired with a meal.
