Hi Termat ☀☀☀. Pre-business trip rides are the most fun ones 🥰. This "Manazuru" is easy to find and quite tasty, so it comes in handy when you're riding the train ✨.

Hi Jaive, Hi 🌞! Fukui station is a treasure trove of sandesi, thank goodness! You can even choose the Hakudakesen black iron 😳I would have gone with Nanadesi if I didn't have a presentation tomorrow 🤣.

Kuroryu Shuzo is a Daigin brewery, but that does not mean that the Kutouryuu we drink every day has been skimpy! The clean taste and clean mouthfeel of Junmai sake is still there! It's a sake that speaks for itself, a sake that can be drunk without being overbearing, and for that I am grateful! The cheapest sake is also delicious, but it really does have a little bit of an "alu" taste to it. This one is soft and delicious!

A new series from Tanabe Shuzo, which brews Echizen Misaki! This is a limited edition sake from the brewery! It has a mild aroma of 🍏 and 🍌! When you taste it, you will be surprised at the sweetness and umami that flows through the mouth! The aftertaste is fruity! It is not a flashy type of sake, but it asserts its quality and robust flavor when compared to Koei Kiku or Eikoufuji! It seems to be brewed with pesticide-free rice grown by the brewer in Fukui's climate (i.e. no thermal tanks)! Compared to the same Gohyakumangoku rice, this rice is said to dissolve well! I feel that its umami is coming out well 😳. It was nice to talk with the toji-san! Both the brewer and the toji-san were very kind and I was able to ask them many questions! I highly recommend this sake! If you are ever in Fukui, be sure to stop by (there is also Kuroryu Shuzo nearby and Yoshida Shuzo of Eiheiji Hakuryu a little further away)!

Drinking Famous Sake! Koei Kiku, a rising star from Saga! First time but not Sky, first released summer sake! A light cider with little aroma and 🍎 on the palate and a fairly short aftertaste! A little bit of 🍋 and a little bit of rummy, a little bit of sweetness, and a lot of gulping! Hokkaido sake rice and Saga yeast! This beautiful sake is made with low rice polishing! I'm curious to see the other Koeikiku!

Drinking famous sake! Packed tag sake from Niigata, the magical land of sake The design with a cargo tag pasted on the bottle is eye-catching all the way around! Without any ostentatious remarks, let's start with the first sake of the first match! The aroma is mild, as is typical of fine Hokuriku sake! Oh no! The sweet peach is delicious! Not too much acidity! The carbonation is not a bumblebee, but rather a pleasantly sharp carbonation that accelerates the sensation as it rushes down your throat! This carbonation is my personal favorite! It is truly fresh and light! It's not as spicy as I imagined, and it has a juicy texture... It's a nuance, but it's not the same as "mellow," but it's thick. It is juicy and light, which is a pleasant contradiction! In a good way, it is hard to believe that this drink is made from rice! Almost everyone who can consume alcohol will say it is delicious! I wonder if the 8:2 ratio of Gohyakumangoku:Yamadanishiki was also the result of trial and error to achieve this flavor 🧐. There are many varieties of sake with a lot of labels, so I went for the one with the most standard label. ☺️Takachiyo is not available here, but this one will satisfy your desire for a light and juicy sake! I'm not sure how long it will take me to write this review, but it's gone like an idiot..!

One of the best sake brands in Fukui! One of the best sake that makes me glad I came to Fukui! Summer sake is out... but it's just barely spring, isn't it? 🤣 It has a malty but elegant aroma similar to Hakuneri (Hakugakusen Jungin)! After the necessary sweetness, the sweet, sour, and bitter flavors flow like a clear stream with a beautiful effervescence! It's the kind of flavor that makes you want to drink it in gulps! This elegance...Good Echizen quailty..... I'm sure you like Hakugakusen's raw sake! I used to avoid Hakugakuzen's low alcohol seasonal sake because of its low alcohol content, but it's still delicious 🧐.

Japanese>English

Good morning, Termat! I've been chasing "Hakugakusen" every year and sometimes I can't keep up with it because they release a new seasonal sake or a new sake almost every 2 months 🤣. But still, the one I'm after is not on sale🤔.

Hi Gyve 🌞 I see you're out at such a pace 😳 I'm curious about the one that Gyve from Hakugaku Sentong is interested in!

Sabae is famous for Bon, but this Hwasong is also known as a historic sake! This sake is served cold! It slips smoothly, but is quite classic, afternoon tea-like! Sake is junmai, even better when heated." It's a little cold tonight, and this phrase resonates in my head. So I warmed it up for the first time in a while! Yum! It's delicious! I knew it was designed to be heated! The sweetness increases as the temperature is raised and the acidity does not! It's delicious with a warming flavor! It's not the same as sweet potato shochu, but the warm and sweet sake reminds me of my hometown!

Spend GW with this girl! This is a very limited edition sake from Tsuneyama that sits only in a limited number of distributors! I was hesitant to buy it because it's a bit pricey & it's a bottle, but I bought it after reading Nork's review! I was hesitant to buy it because it was a bit pricey & only available at a limited number of dealers, but I bought it after reading Nork's review! The picture below shows a gorgeous bottle of this sake made from a pure Daigin standard of Gohyakumangoku (Tsuneyama Kyokyu?) with a lot of sake lees from Sakahomare brewed with the same sake! Open the bottle! The pressure was so strong that I thought my fingers would be blown off 😂They are very vigorous! Automatic stirring as a matter of course lol... The aroma is quite mild. It has a nice sakekasu aroma! If it's a polar base, it will turn into melon in time 🍈. When you include it...it's delicious! 🫨🤣🫨🤣 Well, it's a Tsuneyama, so it's what you'd expect, but it's a dry, refined Tsuneyama with a stronger than usual carbonation! It's dry when cold and melon-like sweetness as the temperature rises. ☺️ It was quite dry at first sip, but after about an hour it became sweet, delicious and spicy carbonated, quite different from the Tsuneyama Kyoku. ☺️ Echizen dry is the best! It's designed to stick straight to those who properly like Tsuneyama!

Hi Termat 😃. The atmospheric appearance of the Kyokushizuku looks amazing😍I would love to drink it at least once 🥹. We have a fresh bottle of Tsuneyama Fei waiting for me in our fridge 🤗I'm looking forward to drinking it 😙.

Jay and Nobby, good evening to you 😃 Great job!　I'd love to drink the non-tailored shizuku sake one day 🥹. Tsuneyama Hisho! I like it 🤣 I remember it being dry AND fruity and bitty! My recommendation is kinky 😆.

Terroir sake brewed with Echizen-machi rice by Niu Shuzo of Echizen-machi, Fukui! Asukai The sake here is easy to drink and quite dry and delicious! This is a new item, a pure rice sake with no additives! The label is impressive! I'm going to explore the frontier because it's hard to find reviews on the net! I'm going to pioneer the frontier! Interesting specs: no additive yeast. That means only brewed? 🧐 The aroma is a blue melon type? Mild but beautiful! When you drink it, the umami acidity is strongly assertive! But it's on very clean water and disappears quickly with the sweetness. It is probably quite dry, but there is no cloying taste and it is very easy to drink! It is very robust even when served cold! It will probably be great warmed up, but I think I'll just drink it all cold 😂. I'm smiling at the refined high alu classic 😄The type of sake my body craves after a long day of modern types. I'm sure this type of sake will have some unpleasant taste, but it's great that it doesn't have any unpleasant taste! It seems that there was a time when the brewery was connected with a current toji, but now it seems that Mr. Io is brewing sake from the hip. It is a small brewery with little distribution, so if you see it, please pick it up.

It still goes well with 🐟! It brings sweetness!

First sogape, a shocking encounter🫨. The long sentence on the back of the label gives me a sense of the philosophy, and my expectations are high! The yeast mixture sounds really interesting! After reading the past reviews, I had a glass of it cold. As the back label says, the fragrance is restrained, and there is a yogurt feeling. It tastes ...... good when you drink it 🫨 This is delicious without bias... Very moderate sweetness, makes you understand that sweetness should be this much. And the characteristic acidity... The chemical reaction between the traditional sake yeast and wine brewing know-how is extraordinary. ......... This mellow acidity establishes a solid framework even when the sake is cold! Delicious! It's like a sake with wine in its previous life. As the temperature rises, the sweetness comes out as usual, but I would like to drink this sake cold. It is hard to find, but I can understand why it has a strong fan base. It is delicious! I want to buy it as soon as I find it. I seem to be under the spell of Sogape too! I went to Echizen Sake Noten Hayashi with the intention of stocking up on about three bottles of undrinkable sake. It's a magnum, so the shape is different from other bottles and it really stood out... Apparently there was a cancellation and it was a miracle that I was able to pick it up 😂I was seriously close to buying it because I hesitated to buy it for a moment...

Japanese>English

I thought it was a progressive sake, but it's insanely sophisticated! Like Tenpyo from my hometown Nishi Brewery, I can see how a brewery that has reached the top of its game in a certain sake category can apply its know-how to other genres of sake as well!

Hi Jay and Nobby😃I'm looking forward to following the changes! But be careful not to drink too much, as it is very strong and you will drink more and more 🤣If you have it, don't hesitate to buy more than one or even a magnum, you won't regret it!

First time loman! It's hard to read when you're sober for the first time😅. It has a melon aroma! It was quite bitter on the first sip, and it was hard to drink. After a little time, the clear sweetness came forward. ☺️ sweetness! I'm not sure if it's a bit too sweet or too sweet! I didn't feel any fruity acidity, but it had a white wine flavor. It seems like it could be sweet, but it is indeed a jun-daigin, and it is very refreshing. Or is this also the work of the famous sake Romain?

Drinking famous sake! We stocked up on our first Jikin with a full bottle of sake! The Yongo bottles were already gone, so I took the plunge and got the Ichimasu bottles! It was the first Jikin to be released! Please try it 🫡! The aroma is mild, but the 🍏 yogurt aroma, which I also get from Kuroryu, really opens up! Tropical on the palate! The slight carbonation tickles your tongue even though it is fire-brewed! The balance of sweet, sour, and astringent aromas is excellent, and it flows smoothly! This is what you call minerality... The aftertaste is elegant 🍐. As the temperature rises, the elegant sweetness comes to the fore! Delicious 😋. It's not the type of sake that tries to win with one trick, but rather a hard-edged, honors sake that has stuck to the high standards. Mie terroir is also good! Also, the fact that it is not low alcohol with this taste is a good point!

Good evening, Termat-san 🌛. First time drinking "Jikin" at home? Congratulations 🎉! I'm envious of you because I haven't had "Jikin" at home yet either 🥰.

A new series of Kuroryu with different sake rice! Brewed with Kuroryu's original method and brewer's yeast! Is it sake rice from Hokkaido? ☺️ It has a good reputation! Day 1! A typical elegant Kuroryu! It's good, but it's hard to tell the difference from other Kuroryu, or is it too hard? Maybe I expected too much...? 🧐 3rd day!　It's sweet! The tart, elegant sweetness spreads in a ripe banana-like manner ☺️ It's quite sweet, but the elegant bitterness makes me drink more and more of it! This change is why I can't stop drinking at home!

After the taste change, the sake quality remained stable until the end and was delicious. As expected of Kuroryu!

This year, Kutouryuu Jungin Dareguchi was overshadowed by Kuroryu Jungin Dareguchi and could not be found at all! The Kutouryuu series is characterized by its high cost performance and the use of sake rice produced in Fukui! Last year, when we had a first contact with this sake, we were impressed by its rich and fresh melon flavor. ...... is a twist, isn't it? I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a bottle of sake that's been in production for 6 months.... I'm not sure I would have noticed the twist if I hadn't had the experience of drinking it. On a side note, the master of the liquor store told me that Kutouryuu's new autumn sake will be hiyaoroshi, which is a hiyaoroshi with a dripping mouth. Sounds sweet!

Is that a twist gone? Is that possible?　Melon feeling is coming!

Today is a fine day in Fukui! So, we will have spring sake from Tsunezan! The spring and fall seasonal sake comes from "Eika Gingetsu," which means to love the season and enjoy it honestly, which is wonderful! Gingetsu is also very tasty! The sake rice is Sakahomare! It is a variety characterized by its elegant sweetness! Aroma like melon or peach when you drink it. The chili flavor supports the sweetness and is delicious! This spring sake is a perfect match for the cherry blossoms along the Ashiba River (and the sake brewery is close by)! (And it's close to a sake brewery.) p.s. Maybe it's because Tsuneyama's reputation for seasonal sake has grown this year, but the larger liquor stores were out of stock, so I had to make the rounds of the liquor stores to get my hands on some!

Japanese>English

まぁー

Good evening, Termat-san. I went on a trip to Fukui the other day and loved the cherry blossoms of the Ashiba River in full bloom🌸. This time I drank sake in the city, but if I have the chance to go back, I would love to enjoy Fukui's spring sake while admiring the cherry blossoms along the Ashiba River 😊.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Maa-san! I was looking forward to seeing how you enjoyed your trip to Fukui! Various breweries are offering spring sake, so it would be fun to have a hanami banquet! Please come back to Fukui where you can enjoy seasonal sake while viewing the ocean in the summer, rice fields in the fall, and snow in the winter!

Good evening, Termat-san 🌛. Hanami-sake at "Tsuneyama" while viewing the cherry blossoms at Asaba Kawahara...very intoxicating🌸🍶. I was going to do some hanami-sake myself, but the timing wasn't right, so I'll complement it with Termat's photos ✨.

Good evening, Mr. Jive! The cherry blossoms along the Ashiba River are wonderful! I got to spend time with my guess sake, so it's eating into my life's best hanami sake 😳.

Takachiyo stocked up in Osaka! I've been waiting all week for this 😍 What's up with going down south to stock up on sake from the north? I'm not sure 🧐. Since it's an orikara, I'll start with the top clear...oooh! Bichishuwa! It's a dry carbonated juice! Next, I shook it well and drank it with ori. Well, it is a rice cider! The sweetness increases, and you feel like you are drinking a moderately dry carbonated beverage! It is dry but thick, and I felt the limit of my ability to express myself in this area! If I didn't have to worry about money and my liver cells, I would pour this into a mug, cool it down, and drink it while it lasts! I want to drink this in summer!
