Some say that the aroma is not flashy, but rather subdued, and that one cannot expect much freshness, but for me, the fresh aroma exceeded my expectations for hiyaoroshi. It has a good balance between a calm umami and acidity, and a mild and gentle mouthfeel. I think it is especially good with boiled fish dishes. I enjoyed it cold this time, but next time I would like to try it at room temperature or lukewarm. Another delicious sake I have encountered!

I was lucky enough to encounter Kaze no Mori WEEKS Aizan 607 "Kaze no Mori" brand is an unfiltered, unpasteurized, unpasteurized sake with a slight effervescent taste 🍶. It is a special spec that was released to commemorate the "Kaze no Mori WEEKS" event. It has a strong pineapple taste, but it is delicious. It is mellow and heavy, but the slight effervescence gives it a refreshing taste, and I drank it all down with a smooth throat. It was a precious taste.

The sake rice, Tsurugi Aiyama, is Aiyama produced in Mima City, Tokushima Prefecture, using "Aiyama" as the seed, and is the second sake brewery to produce it, following Miyazumi Meijo, which produced "Sharaku". It has a gorgeous, fruity, white peach-like aroma. It has the creaminess, rice flavor and richness that only orikara-mi can provide. The sweetness and acidity are well balanced, juicy and rich. While retaining a firm umami, it has a refreshing sharpness. It is one of the most gorgeous and juicy of the Kangiku varieties. It is easy to drink yet has a strong body and the presence of rare rice Ken Aizan can be felt, making it a sake with a strong presence that can be enjoyed on its own rather than as a mealtime sake. It is a delicious 😋.

The aroma is modest, but the wine has a fresh, fruity aroma of La France, ripe apples, and muscatel. The taste is delicious from the moment it is opened. It is very light on the palate with a solid sense of effervescence and a refreshing shrieking sensation. The taste is well-balanced, with the tangy flavor and sweetness of rice spreading on the palate, and the acidity and refreshing bitterness bringing the whole thing together sharply. The aftertaste is dry and crisp, and the overall effect is refreshing and modern 🥂. It is outstanding as an aperitif (aperitif) or as an aperitif (aperitif before dinner). Great with Japanese food. Will be purchasing more! This is delicious 😋.

This year's first Hiyoroshi is Hououmida Hiyoroshi Junmai Ginjo-shu, a limited edition sake made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture. This sake is a traditional sake that is pressed in the winter, matured during the summer, and shipped in the fall, giving it a mellow and matured taste. It has a mild aroma, smooth texture, gentle acidity, and a firm yet mellow flavor. The acidity is tangy even from the mid-palate, and a light sweetness spreads in the mouth. Aged for one summer, it is both fresh and mellow. We drank it with grilled high priced Sanma (mackerel), which is an autumn food. It was delicious!

A kijoshu made with junmai (pure rice) sake as part of the brewing water. It has a good balance of sweetness and acidity and can be drunk like a dessert, and is also served on the rocks or with soda. This "Raifuku MELLOW" is a very fruity and easy-drinking sake, like a sweet and sour dessert wine. It has a fresh and lively yeast aroma, and the balance of sweetness and acidity is very well balanced, making it a very dessert-like drink. The aroma, taste, and aftertaste are all kept fresh and flavorful in this bottle. This sake is recommended for those who are not accustomed to drinking sake and for those who like fruity, sweet sake. It was an exquisite, characteristic gem that was sweet but not heavy. This is as good as it gets😋.

I wanted to drink this sake once 🍶. Fruity, gorgeous, peachy, with a unique aroma. On the palate, the sweetness spreads softly and smoothly. The well-balanced sweetness is infused with umami, and the exquisite acidity tightens the sweetness, with a crisp aftertaste that quickly disappears. It has a well-balanced flavor that is not too sweet, and it goes well with a wide range of dishes. It is a refined sake that goes especially well with simmered dishes and fish 🎣. I think I might like this one 😊 Delicious!

Sake made from Gohyakumangoku rice is pressed at the vat and bottled immediately 🍶. Slightly effervescent, refreshingly light and crisp, with a juicy, slightly acidic flavor. Excellent value for money, a food sake to be drunk every day. It has a very high degree of perfection, and each sip makes you feel that it is still delicious. It is also delicious😋. I would like to try other variations (Yamadanishiki, Aizan, etc.).

Second time for me to enjoy Hana-Hojo-Shu 🍶. I couldn't forget the last Junmai Daiginjo-shu, so I bought it... Fragrant and gorgeous, reminiscent of pineapple🍍 and banana🍌 tropical fruits. Refreshingly honey and mango🥭 nuances. Smooth sweet flavor from a gentle and soft mouthfeel. Exquisite balance unique to Huayouyake. The good parts of each are brought out: the rich umami of Yamadanishiki and the complex, weighty feel of Omachi. The lingering aftertaste is a refreshing bitter acidity that slowly fades away. Dangerous deliciousness.

This limited edition sake uses Ogawa yeast, which has a long history, and is made from Yamada-Nishiki polished to 40%. The fruity aroma is reminiscent of firm apples, melons, and muscats. The moment you approach the glass, its gorgeous ginjo aroma and lustrous sweetness spreads. The aroma is gorgeous and fragrant, and the fruity sweetness and umami of the rice is very impressive. The strength of the aroma and mild sweetness may divide some tastes, but the "mellow and gorgeous" and "fine sweetness and umami" or glossy and colorful sweetness, lush fruitiness, and mellow aftertaste are impressive. The acidity is mild and leaves a lingering aftertaste with mild bitterness and sharpness at the end. Delicious even with strong food 😋.

Junmai Ginjo-nama sake brewed with "Misato Nishiki" using the famous Shinmasa yeast No. 6. It has a fruity flavor like a mix of apple and grapefruit with a slight gassy sensation from the raw sake. It has a mild ginjo aroma from yeast No. 6, soft sweetness, and refreshing acidity. The fruity yet elegant and clear mouthfeel is well-balanced and refined with the strong and gentle umami and acidity that only No. 6 yeast can produce. It has a delicious assertiveness that is not too strong, and goes well with any meal 😋.

Heart Label! This summer sake has an aroma reminiscent of the juiciness of summer and is refreshing to drink. The low sugar content and light, fresh flavor will keep you going in the hot summer without tiring, and it is a delicious sake that is perfect for a mealtime drink that stimulates the appetite. Hitomebore rice grown in Miyagi Prefecture is used at 55% polished rice. The use of flat milled rice for the hanging rice was used to achieve a clean and light flavor. This method of rice polishing is called "flattened rice polishing" because it produces an effect greater than the milling ratio and the rice is flattened. The refreshing, grapefruit-like acidity is well rounded and sharp, so you will never get tired of drinking it. Is the sweet and sour taste you feel at first "one summer love"? Or is it the bitterness that comes later? From the clear mouthfeel, light spiciness and soft fruity sweetness and acidity mix to create a rich sense of balance. The sharpness afterward is wonderful, leaving a delicious flavor in a refreshing drink. Delicious 😋.

Delicious sake that I don't need to comment on 🍶. First Jikin Special Junmai, Hachitanishiki 80 Yamadanishiki 20 Kakemai 🌾. The subtle gasiness, tangy acidity, and bitterness lead to a clean finish, and the overall perfection is very high. This sake stands out for its fresh, crisp, fruity aroma, moderate sweetness and acidity, and clean aftertaste, all of which are well balanced. It is especially good for a wide range of occasions, with the flavor of the rice, and can be enjoyed both chilled and at room temperature. It is worth drinking at least once if you are a sake lover. Its sweetness and acidity are in harmony, and its fruity and umami flavor makes it a delicious sake that "never gets old no matter how many times you drink it" and "can be drunk easily" perhaps no matter who drinks it 😋🍶.

A summer version of the "top of the line" Junmai Daiginjo! This Junmai Daiginjo is brewed using the rare rice "Watafune Roku", the paternal equivalent of Yamadanishiki. The aroma is fresh and gorgeous. The elegant sweetness of muscat and melon on the palate. The soft mouthfeel and umami spread throughout. The sweetness of the juicy fruitiness gives the impression of a slight acidity that creates a three-dimensional effect. The balance is well blended and you can enjoy a fresh taste with a sense of freshness and weight. The aftertaste disappears with a pleasant sharpness, and the wine goes down smoothly. This is delicious 😋.

The traditional "mellow dry taste" of Drunken Whale has been refined... After about a year of work, Drunken Whale Brewery developed Drunken Whale TYPE25. It is brewed with Asahi rice grown in Okayama Prefecture and two types of yeast: Kochi yeast "AA-41" and our own yeast (from the No. 9 series). In the development process, the brewer placed importance on the "freshly squeezed" freshness of the beer, with a natural slight effervescence from the fermentation process! By taking advantage of this "gassy" feeling, they aimed to create a sake that can be enjoyed by young people, sake beginners, and men and women of all ages. It is true that the sake is fresh and light, with a slight bubbling from the fermentation process, while maintaining the charm of a "food sake. Fruity aroma with a hint of banana that is not too aromatic. A light mouthfeel with good balance. Light on the palate, well-balanced and easy to drink. It goes quickly. This is perfect for summer ☀️ Delicious 😋.

AKABU in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture! Just looking at the brand name "AKABU" in romaji instead of kanji is already delicious 😋. Junmai Ginjo Aizan, a limited edition, only available once a year. The label says it is brewed with passion, love and guts using Aizan from Hyogo Prefecture as the raw material. The label states that it has a soft flavor and aroma that gently spreads on the palate while retaining a freshness that is typical of Aiyama. In the mouth, the sweet, fruity, and gorgeous flavor spreads first, and in the mid-palate, the depth and complexity of the flavor increases, giving it a good balance. It also has a nice slight tingling gas sensation. The juicy acidity on the back end tightens the sweetness, giving it a refreshing summer sake-like quality. It is a sake that goes very well with Japanese food in general. It's got the guts of a young brewer! Delicious 😋.

I was attracted by the white bear label and purchased it. The Kimura Sake Brewery, located in Yuzawa, Akita Prefecture, has been in business for about 400 years. The "Kakuemon" brand is a limited distribution brand named after the third generation of brewers who trained in Itami... It has a refreshing mouthfeel and a delicate fruity aroma that is not overly fragrant, giving it a mellow and crisp taste. When chilled and served in a wine glass, its gentle fruity aroma will ease the heat. The smartness typical of summer sake and the crispness of the aftertaste make it easy to drink. The crisp, dry aftertaste makes the four-pack go by in a blink of an eye.

Kangiku Meikozo has been around for a long time. The description on the label also creates an exciting atmosphere, reminding us of a refreshing summer, the sea and the sky... A bottle with a fresh fruitiness like honey-filled apples and a light sharpness that transforms the rainy season sky into a refreshing one. Delicious 😋. Comment from the brewer This summer version has a refreshing malic acid finish! The refreshing aroma gives it a tropical feel, as if sake were blended with seekers. Inspired by the four seasons of Kujukuri-hama, we will express the seasons in our own way at Kangiku Meikozo. Please enjoy the changing seasons with this sake. The second summer limited edition sake! With a fruity aroma reminiscent of fresh apples and green melons, and crisp acidity, this sake expresses the flavor your body needs at this time of year. It is a bottle that makes you want to surrender yourself to the clear blue sky, the sea, and the pleasant sound of waves just by drinking it☆.
