Purchased at a local supermarket.
Tastes like a Japanese sake.
Dry, strong style!
Slightly thicker in the mouth.
It would be better if it had a little more sharpness.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★☆☆☆☆
Purchased at a liquor store in Tokyo Station.
I chose a sake from Hiroshima Prefecture, which I had never tasted before.
It has a slightly fruity flavor, but the sweetness disappears quickly and easily without leaving a sweet taste in the mouth.
I don't like fruity sake, but this one has just the right amount of sweetness!
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★*
Purchased at my favorite Kabukicho liquor store.
There was a section for summer sake, and I chose my favorite dry sake.
It tastes just like a dry sake and is easy to drink.
Perfect to drink in summer when it is cooled down to the perfect temperature!
I hope to drink it again next year.
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★★
I bought it at a department store after a salesperson enthusiastically recommended it to me.
I was able to taste several bottles, so I was happy to be able to choose the one I liked best.
The aroma was not so strong, and the taste was dry and crisp with a moderate sweetness.
The aftertaste is refreshing and perfect for summer!
Best to drink cold.
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★*
I had a drink at a nearby Sushiro.
It was a clean, refreshing sake that did not interfere with the taste of the sushi.
It went in like water and had no peculiarities, good or bad.

At a local supermarket, I chose my favorite sake from Niigata.
The label said it was light and dry, so I had high expectations, but it was not to my liking.
The moment I drank it, I felt the sweetness quite strongly.
The mouthfeel is crisp, but there is no crisp aftertaste.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★☆☆☆✩
Purchased at a liquor store in the next station.
It has a pear-like aroma and taste, with a sweetness that lingers on the palate but leaves a tangy, strong, dry feeling at the end.
It is refreshing on the palate, so it might be good in the summer.
Again, if it were just a little less sweet, I would have liked it more.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★★☆✩
Purchased at my favorite liquor store in Shinjuku.
It has a fresh aroma and a fruity taste, but it has a sharp and clean aftertaste.

Personal Satisfaction:★★★★✩✩
I had to buy it because the label said "Recommended by Rui Yoshida!
The umami flavor spreads in the mouth with a sharp and clean aftertaste.
It also has a touch of sweetness, but it is not harsh and is well balanced.
Very refreshing and easy to drink!
As expected of Rui-san!
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★★
I bought it unexpectedly because it was sold exclusively at an antenna store in Hokkaido.
It is unusual in that the sake is contained in a carved wooden bear-like ceramic!
Pon-epele apparently means "little bear" in Ainu language.
The taste is very refreshing and easy to drink.
It is slightly dry with a sharp aftertaste.
It tastes good with a refreshing aftertaste!

I couldn't help but buy it when I saw the rock-tastic, high-impact label!

The aftertaste is both sweet and bitter.
The sweetness is a bit strong, but it is refreshing and easy to drink.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★☆☆☆☆
Purchased at a local supermarket.
Both the aroma and taste are sweet and fruity.
The label said it was slightly dry, but there was a slight dryness in the aftertaste.
It was not my favorite flavor, but when I tried heating it up, it mellowed out and the sweetness was reduced, making it delicious.
Personal Satisfaction:★☆☆☆☆
I bought it at a discount price at a nearby drugstore.
I had high expectations for this sake because it was from Niigata, my favorite sake region, but I was a little disappointed with its mild taste.
It has a strong bitter taste and not much umami. The aroma was not very good either.
However, when I heated it up, the crisp, dry taste was enhanced and it tasted great.
If it was not good cold, try heating it up!
Personal Satisfaction:★☆☆☆☆
Also bought a bottle of raw sake at a liquor store in Shinjuku.
It is quite clean and dry, with both a slight bitterness and sweetness in the aftertaste.
The taste is well-balanced and habit-free, making it easy to drink!
The sake is also refreshing on the palate and seems to go very well with sashimi.
It was quite delicious!
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★☆
I bought a cheap bottle of raw sake at a liquor store in Shinjuku.
The label says it is super dry, but it has a strong sweetness and a dry aftertaste.
The texture on the tongue is a little tangy.
I would prefer something with a little less sweetness.

A drink at the conveyor-belt sushi chain Fish Restaurant Road.
It is not so aromatic and is quite refreshing and easy to drink!
It is a very dry sake, but the umami flavor is also very good.
I had had a less dry Sawanoi before, but this is definitely more to my liking!
It was delicious with sushi as well.
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★*
A friend gave me this bottle as a birthday present.
It is a limited edition and is apparently hard to find.
The refreshing aroma that goes straight to your nose.
The mouthfeel is slightly smooth.
The moment you put it in your mouth, you feel sweetness, but it soon turns crisp and dry.
The aftertaste is also dry, which is pleasant to me as a dry wine lover!
I am thankful to have found a great bottle!
Personal Satisfaction:★★★★*

I have been talking about liking dry sake for a while now and you gave it to me🎶.

This is one of the 8 different types of Echigo Yuki Koumbai that I purchased at Costco.
It has almost no aroma and tastes super refreshing.
It drinks like water.
There is a hint of sweetness, but it disappears quickly and has a light aftertaste.
Since it has no habits, it may be easy to drink even for those who are new to sake.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★☆☆☆☆
