The aroma is sweet rice? A little bit of classicism. There is also a sourness like tangerines 🍊. When you drink it, you will feel the smoothness in your mouth, a little bit of sweetness, and the bitter acidity will cut through your throat. It is delicious as it is, but I think it would be even better if paired well...! I remember the other day, Tsubu-chan wrote that it goes well with fruit.... I paired it with some pears and some Shine Muscat that I had at home at that time. It's delicious, and it's good on its own, but I definitely prefer to pair it with fruit! Pears especially go well 🍐 Japanese style of pears? The mild but juicy, low-acid sweetness is already perfect! Malo's mild sweetness and pear's freshness are too synergistic. Repetition of sweetness 🔁. At first I thought it would be a little sweet, so I thought it would be like a little sip, but I'd drink this in a heartbeat. After a few days, it becomes even clearer and smoother like fruity water. Pairing is really great. Pears, they went together so well 🍐.

I opened a bottle of 2 year old Yamazan that I was looking forward to: ⛰️ We started with Hitokochiki. The aroma is citrus, white grape type with a clean acidity. When you drink it, it is quite chili shuwa🫧 full and clear with a hint of grapefruit and forest! The last is a bit bitter and cuts off quickly. It is sharp, yet light and mellow. The sweetness of the rice spreads softly. Wow, it's delicious! I wonder if it becomes more grape-like and a little sweeter as the temperature rises. I like it kinky. After a few days, the aroma becomes fluffy and milky. When you drink it, the chili is alive and well, with a forest aroma of juicy sweetness and deliciousness, and a light bitterness. It's amazing how it establishes all this sweetness, bitterness, and acidity. It is not heavy in spite of its maturity. It's round, yet still light ✨. The slight tanginess of the alcohol is a nice accent. Fruity and clear rice 🌾. Clear and crisp as usual ✂️ Hitogochachi is usually a bit more sharp and bitter than Yamazan, but when aged, it becomes smoother and mellower. It was delicious...I hope to drink Yamae Nishiki soon.

They said it was a renewal of what they had been serving as "Mr. Apple Born in a Wooden Barrel" until last year. The aroma is faintly citrus and maybe some apple? When you include it, it is faintly chili. The first thing you notice is a simple sourness, and as you roll it over, you can feel the fullness of the flavor on the side of your tongue! Slightly rice, apple-like acidity, and finally, bitterness to finish. The label on the back of the bottle says that the acidity tastes best when chilled, so it may be a little bitter when it is close to room temperature. It is not that bad. However, I like it better chilled! It was delicious with salads and vinegar-based meals. 🍽️

Wakaizumi, which was served by Wakata and looked delicious: ⛲️ I went to buy it as soon as I found a store near me that carried it. The aroma is grapefruit and rumney. When I take a sip, it tastes sweet...? But the sourness is also assertive...strange! Is the aroma sweet when you include it? And yet, the taste itself is sharply acidic. It ends with bitterness. As the day goes on, it gradually becomes milder and mellower. It has a light, refreshing sweet and sour taste with a clean, dry finish. This is the kind of wine that makes you want to drink more and more of it! The liquor store I bought it from was one I don't usually go to, but upon closer inspection, I found that they carry a brand I've never had before, which was exciting! It's fun to be connected in this way ✨.

Rumored to be a high-cost main brew 🍶. The aroma is muscat, citrus, and maybe some rumminess. Overall, refreshing. On the palate, I get a little chilli grapefruit. The sweetness of the rice comes in softly and tightens up. Delicious...I really like this light and balanced taste! I could drink it all the time. Wakanami's Oumachi Wakasama and Dragonfly series were also delicious, so I would like to pursue them if the timing is right. Not related to sake, but I've recently become addicted to "Omasari" peanuts (I'm sure they are familiar to those in Chiba, but boiled in salt they are so delicious I think I'll eat them until my nose bleeds.... It is also perfect as a snack! If you haven't tried it, you should 🙌!

As a Mimuro cedar lover, I wanted to try it Imanishi💪. The aroma is rummy, sour and softly rice sweet. I feel the wind of Mimuro cedar... When you drink it, it's chili, soft and sweet, but with great clarity! Delicious the next day too. Chilli rhumune and rice transparency ✨And the acidity that squeezes in your throat is good too. Sweet but mild and moderately puffy, with a clear mouthfeel and no clinginess. It has a nice crisp aftertaste and is refreshing overall. It was a delicious sake that I could easily have another one on its own or with a meal 🍶.

Aroma, acidity, maybe a little alcohol? Very chili when you include it! I've put it down quite a bit and it's amazing. The soft grapefruit and rice sweetness comes, but is quickly swept away by the chili and clear mouthfeel. It's like being treated with a light bitter acidity. Wow, I love this. Delicious! Even after a few days, the impression is still there. It is packed with acidity. But it is well-balanced, modern and light. Its subtle umami flavor is perfect for the autumn taste! The instruments are delicious, but I'm starting to wonder about the other Shizenkou wines as well.

I tasted it at a craft saké event and it was so good I brought it home 🍶. I've seen a little bit of Librom here and there, but this is the first time I've bought it 🎉. The aroma is totally passion fruit! Tropical 🏝️ with a fresh sweet and sour aroma. When you take a sip, it's like a juicy passion soda 🫧. What is this, just rice, rice malt, and passion fruit? No flavoring, no sugar...too good to be true. I think it tastes more lilikoi than Islander's Mystery Junmai (lilikoi in) that I bought in Hawaii last year... The Hawaiian one tasted more like sake and I could taste the astringency of the seeds, so it tasted fresher, while this one tastes like a delicious lilikoi soda that you can drink even if you don't like alcohol 🍹. It's a bit expensive, but I'd like to try other kinds of sodas as well.

I've been wanting to try a super dry 🦎 from DuLai. The aroma is sour. When you take a sip, you feel the sweetness of the chili mouthfeel and plump rice, which is immediately followed by white grape and citrus acidity. For a moment you think it's sweet, but it cuts through nicely. This is delicious! After a few days, it smooths out and clears, and feels more on the sappy side. Bitter acidity with a grapefruit feel, clean and crisp! Delicious even after a day. Overall, it is well-balanced, with just the right amount of umami and a clean, dry finish 🍶. I'd like to try the other DuLai ✨.

On the palate, ooey gooey chile juice, then water! It goes on and on with a slushy throat. Thick sweetness like grapes, but not too deep, and acidic and light ✨. It has a clear mouthfeel, and while it's very drinkable, it's refreshing and clear...just as you'd expect from Omine's summer sake! It was delicious this year too 🎐.

This is the one I would drink without thinking... 🥂. I bought a champagne stopper before and used it here and there, and it was still properly shwiswed the next day! And the next day, I just put the stopper on and forgot to let the air out, and it was completely gassed out: ☁️ ...but even though the bubbles are gone, it doesn't get sweet, and the flavor of the rice and the light, dry feeling is still there! It's delicious too. The usual sweet aroma of Akabu is moderate, and the citrusy, refreshing taste is maintained. Rice + light + dry, a delicious sake that is easy to pair with food 🍶.

The sake rice called kinmu is the oldest ancestor of Koshihikari 🌾. The aroma is like a lactobacillus drink. When you drink it, it is chili, and contrary to what you might expect from the aroma, it has a savory, grain-like flavor and a refreshing acidity. It ends with a slight bitterness and disappears quickly. It's amazing...there is almost no aftertaste. The next day, it is even more crisp. A freshness like lemon or herbs comes in a flash, then the sourness and bitterness pass by and disappear...just like that. It's strange, but it's delicious! I just can't stop drinking it. Yoshida Kurau makes a lot of different types of Ishikawa rice, but overall it is light and refreshing, so it is easy to try. And it is usually delicious. I opened this on Sept. 9th, so it reminded me of Erle No.13. Wow, I miss it ♬⛵️🏴‍☠️

I opened it with trepidation because of its activity, but it was quiet...it seems to be the type that settles down over time. The aroma is sour and citrusy. When the supernatant is included, it is chiri-chiri-chi. The rice sweetness comes with a slightly smooth mouthfeel, and it finishes with a bitter, refreshing sensation.

It is from a liquor store's hanpukai. The aroma is of gorgeous white grapes. When you drink it, the fruity taste of white grapes and refreshing acidity spreads. I had imagined it to be sweet based on the image of Hououmida that I have received, but it is more refreshing than I expected. After a little time, a bit of bitterness may appear. The aroma is sweet. I thought I would like the fruity-sukkiri taste at first... But as time goes by, the fruity sweetness and flavor of the rice is present, but the taste is clear and crisp, and it is easy to drink! It is easy to drink. Mixing multiple tanks to sublimate the flavor is once again an amazing technique 👀.

I felt that the Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki🧡 I had previously had did not have the Yamasan feel to it, so I thought I would pass on this one. However, I saw a post on Sake-no-wa that said it looked delicious, so I went out and got it! The aroma is rummy and citrus? When you include it, it is sizzlingly rummy, rice sweet and full of fruity richness! The forest-like feeling that I often get from Yamazan(?) I think it's a bit thin. 🤔Refreshing as always✨ It's not about which flavor, but the overall taste. I don't think it's a matter of which flavor, but rather the image of the whole being condensed. I felt this at the time of Aizan too. I appreciate the balance of sweet and tasty without being heavy. I enjoyed it both during the meal and on its own.

The one I ended up buying before I thought about the refrigerator situation 🌝. The aroma is soft and sweet rice. When you take a sip, it's still fluffy and sweet with a hint of chili. I don't know, maybe it's because it doesn't have a complex aroma in a good way, or maybe it's because it has sweetness, but it goes in smoothly and honestly. The aftertaste is clean and crisp! It is crisp and clear. I feel it is the crispest among the other Nabeshima I have tasted so far. Maybe it's because it's aluzo-sweetened? It has the freshness that is typical of Nabeshima and the sweetness of rice, but it finishes so crisp and clean that you can't help but drink more. It is light on the palate, but also very drinkable. It seems to be easy to pair with any meal, and is delicious on its own. As expected from Nabe-sama✨.

The one that had a pure white label last year was delicious, so I'll have it again this year. The addition of the light blue fudori on the Āmodori letters made it more refreshing✨. I don't have a picture of it, but the stopper was also clear plastic-like, giving it a more summery look. The aroma is citrusy, sour, and rice. On the palate, it's as schwishy and squeaky sour as you'd expect! The bitterness comes to the side of the tongue, which is more sour. The fluffy rice sweetness and sourness are in good balance, and combined with the effervescence, it tightens to a refreshing dryness. This is a good summer sake 🎐. I think it is more sour and tasty than last year! ...but maybe I just don't remember! I'm sure I'm not the only one 😝.

Good evening, Jay and Nobby! The previous Nopojo label was interesting too 😚 As you said, if you say white malic acid and malic acid, I have no choice but to drink it ‼️ and bought it again this year 😆 I hope to see it over the next few years as the flavor may have evolved 👍.
