The moment you feel the umami of rice, you will feel the fresh acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits, a taste that reminds you of summer.
It is best to drink it on a humid rainy season day like today with a summer-seasoned appetizer. ☀️

なまころ
This sake is from Kagoshima, which is a bit unusual.
I had a bad experience with Okinawan sake before, so I honestly did not have high expectations for sake from a tropical country, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it has a good balance of rice flavor and sweetness with acidity, making it a good food sake👍.
It is sold at the store in the departure lobby of Kagoshima Airport, so if you are traveling, please try it as a topic of conversation!

なまころ
Unusually for an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, a firm lychee acidity is firmly present in the mouthfeel, complementing the sweetness and richness of the rice.
A well-balanced sake with both spiciness and sweetness.
Excellent with char with sweet soybean paste 😍.
Japanese>English
なまころ
The mouthfeel is gentle and smooth, but gradually the sweetness and umami of the rice expands.
The taste is full and rich, but not too sweet, with a hint of lychee-like acidity that disappears at the end.
It is said to have won the highest gold medal at the Wineglass Sake Awards, and this robustness is sure to be delicious no matter what you drink it with!

なまころ
In addition to the sweetness of the rice characteristic of nama-shu, it has a fresh acidity reminiscent of orange 🍊 and a slight richness that lingers in the aftertaste, which is characteristic of light nigori sake.
It is a very enjoyable sake to drink on its own, without any other accompaniments. If you want to drink it with a meal, it would be better with something light in flavor.
It is not well known, but I highly recommend it.

なまころ
I had it bottled on the spot at a brewery event.
I can fully enjoy the sake's flavor and sweetness, there is a slight aftertaste of eginess, but I can't quite discern whether it is original or due to not cooling it in a cooler box when I brought it home.
Cost is 1400 yen including tax, so it is not bad cosmetically.
Japanese>English
なまころ
It has a strong acidity on the palate, with a calm and mellow flavor characteristic of Sogen, and finishes with a light finish characteristic of hiyaoroshi.
It has a robust drinking experience that will appeal to sake lovers, and is easy to pair with dishes that have a strong flavor.

なまころ
Compared to other nigori sake, the turbidity is amazing, and the concentration is like drinking yogurt. ❗️
The taste is pleasantly sweet and sour like drinking yogurt, and slightly sour and refreshing like a lactic acid bacteria drink.
It is more like makgeolli or horse milk wine than sake.
I hope you'll try the cream cheese with soy sauce👍.
It flies 😆.

なまころ
I tasted it at the Ponshukan adjacent to Nagaoka Station in Niigata and liked it so much I bought it on the spot: ☺️
Clear, refreshing and fruity taste 🎵.
I like the rich sweet sake with a full-bodied flavor and the sweetness of the rice, but I think I prefer this sake with a slightly more refreshing taste 😊.
The price is also very reasonable at 1500 yen for a bottle of #4, tax not included😃.

Frozen Sake
It is served after it has thawed to a sorbet-like state.
First of all, it tastes like a strong sake with a high alcohol content. It has a strong acidity and a moderate sweetness.
As it gradually melts and becomes more liquid, it becomes fresher and more vibrant.
After it has almost completely melted, the sake is fresh, yet full-bodied and authentic.

なまころ
I had thought that Hiroshima sake might have a bit of an edginess like old-fashioned sake, but this sake has a refreshing taste that breaks through such preconceptions.
I think it is well-balanced and goes well with anything.

なまころ
Delicious as always 😋.
Peach extract rather than sake 🍑.
It is a sake to be enjoyed on its own, like enjoying fruit, rather than to be paired with food 🍶.
Lush, fresh and more than a sake 😊.

なまころ
I have had this sake before, but today I drank it right after opening the bottle.
The mouthfeel has a very firm sweetness. The aftertaste is not too sweet with a moderate acidity.
It is a sake where the umami of the rice can be fully appreciated.
Japanese>English
なまころ
Although it has the richness and sweetness of a pure sake, the aftertaste is relatively clean and crisp.
The ginjo aroma of pears and oranges is pleasant, and it is easy to drink on its own.
The acidity is neither strong nor weak, and is moderate but seems to balance out the flavor.
It is a sake that you can't go wrong with buying.
Japanese>English
なまころ
The slightly lower alcohol content of 12.5 degrees makes it easy to drink, and the sake is well-balanced and of high quality.
This Garakudai series, all of them are delicious and may be hidden masterpieces: ☺️

It has a relatively balanced taste, as one would expect from a Kochi sake with a dry taste.
It has no cloying taste and is easy to drink, so you can easily finish it.

なまころ
A sake I was honestly disappointed in after drinking it at an izakaya in Toyama previously.
Today, I came across an unopened bottle of Katsikoma at an izakaya and ordered it again, thinking that my impression would be different if it had just been opened.
The result was...
It has an unusual taste, with a strong umami and sweetness on the palate, but with a clean aftertaste.
This clean aftertaste is common in dry sake, but it is rare in such sweet umami sake.
It depends on one's taste, but if you want to make a sake with a clean aftertaste to match the fish from Toyama, it would have been better to make it dry from the start to give it a more solid direction.
It is a niche flavor, in my opinion.
Japanese>English
なまころ
There is a fresh acidity in the mouthfeel, but soon after, umami and sweetness are well pronounced.
There was no mention of junmai, etc., but the taste is clearly of high quality.
