Gift part 2, small bottles of 180 ml.
There is not much aroma, and the first thing you taste is the rich umami of the rice, followed by the acidity and spiciness.
An orthodox classic type.
Personal evaluation 6.5/10 points
A small 180 ml bottle of the gift
The aroma of ginjo is modest with a hint of banana, and the soft sweetness and umami of the rice spreads when you drink it.
It has a classic taste and is the kind of sake you want to drink every once in a while!
Personal rating 7.0/10 points
A luxurious product made from 33% polished Sasanishiki rice only available in Miyagi Prefecture 😆.
Gorgeous sweetness that is typical of Miyakanbai, with a refreshing aftertaste, but with a deep umami flavor.

Hello Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Please give my best regards to Miyaganbai 🙇.
I'm currently offering "Junmai Ginjo Summer Sake Mr. Summer Time", which is my top pick, although I haven't had it yet this year 💦.
It's been a very long time since I've seen Gakki 😊.
A little sweet melon? I thought it might be a little sweet melon, but it also has a gassy, somewhat fanta-melon taste 🍈.
Finished with a pleasant bitterness from the refreshing sweetness and tasty sourness of the rice.

Hi Manta, good evening 🌙
I didn't like Gakki as much as I like you, but it's been a while since I had it and it was delicious 😁.
1,701 yen for this is a great deal 😲.
As described, sweet at first, then the acidic flavor hits you with a bang 😆 The lingering slightly spicy and alu feeling makes it very drinkable, yet refreshing (дд)uma!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
It's definitely an eye-catching exterior, and I'm a sucker for the word "limited edition" 😅.
Boom 🤔Jewa~🤔 either way it's a very tasty sake!
First time in a long time at Family Camping 🏕.
I was expecting it to be very crowded, but it was a nice campsite and we were able to spend a comfortable time without much trouble 😊.
I was not sure what to drink, but I chose Tobiroki, which had been sitting in the fridge for a while 🍶.
It was sweeter and more fruity than I had expected 😆 The balance of sourness, bitterness, spiciness, and aliveness was excellent.
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
Good evening, Ryuppa-san. This year's GW was a perfect outdoor day blessed with fine weather and I also enjoyed camping 😊To bring Tobiroki is just too good camping sake. Looks like your kids are having fun too💕.
Good morning, Ryupapa 😃.
I like the family camp 🏕️ 🤗
The expression on the child's face in the background tells how much fun he is having 😄The camp food looks so cool and delicious😍Hiroki there would be great ‼️
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 🌧.
The kids said they had a great time and that was the best 😉 Of course the Tobiroki was delicious and the adults were happy with the camp 🏕.
Good morning, Manachie 🌧.
I was looking through the stock at home and I found this one! I brought you HIROKI and it turned out to be a great decision 😉.
Besides the camp rice ajillo, the kids requested beef tongue 😅.
Ryuppa-san konban-ha(o´ω`o)no~~
Your daughter is so cute ((((o(♡´▽`♡)o))))
Ahijo looks delicious too🤤!
The perfect combination of a family camping and a perfect drink (⑅ˊˊˋ⑅)⑅).
Good evening, Eirin 🌙
My daughters are getting older and we don't get to go out together as often as we used to, but we had a great time around the fire and enjoyed ourselves 😊. 💦I always have a hard time deciding!
The label is impressive😆.
We bought it at my wife's parents' liquor store and brought it straight here 😊.
The first impact is a sugary sweetness, but the Junmai Daiginjo taste is so refreshing and the mouthfeel is so good that you will find yourself drinking more and more without even knowing it.
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
Long time no see 😊.
It is fresh and juicy with a hint of gas, typical of Yokoyama, but lighter than the others 😊.
Sweet and tasty, with a slightly heavy acidity and a pleasant bitterness that lingers.
As the label says, it tastes better when chilled 🤤.
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
It is a gift 🍶.
We will not forget the Great East Japan Earthquake. We must not forget the Great East Japan Earthquake and move forward with hope toward the creation of a new town. It is said that this ginjo-shu was designed with the motif of "Miracle Pine Tree" in Rikuzentakata City as a symbol of such a wish.
It has a light and refreshing taste with a hint of sweetness typical of ginjo-shu, and is easy to drink with low alcohol content and no peculiarities.
Personal rating 6.5/10 points
Purchased at a newly opened liquor store nearby 🍶.
The store had a much better selection of whiskey than sake (next time I'll visit for the whiskey 💦).
I asked the kids what the face on the label looked like on their first Ding, and they said it looked like a smiling face, and I thought so too 😊.
The first impact is sweet! But it's not too sticky for not having much acidity, and it has a good bitterness and moderate alu-ness that makes it drinkable on its own or as a food wine (д)uma!
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
Hi Ryuppa 😃
Ding! We haven't had it since our Nagano expedition last year, but we also found it at a new liquor store we discovered ‼️ I hope to get it again next time👍!
It's good to see you smiling 😀.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
It's so exciting to go to a liquor store for the first time 😆.
The owner was so friendly that we stayed for a long time 😅.
I'm looking forward to the next time since there were other brands that I haven't had yet!
I think it's already a summer drink 💦🕶🍉.
It's been a very long time since I've had a Takachiro 🤤.
Maybe it's the label that's pulling me in, but it's a mature rumple 😆.
It's gassy, lightly acidic, and sweet without being peculiar.
It's the type of thing you'll run out of before you know it!
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
Well-balanced with firm rice flavor, gentle sweetness and acidity, it has a round taste with no corners in general.
The cherry blossoms that were in full bloom at the end of last week are now long gone.
Personal evaluation 7.0/10 points
I wanted something a little dry, so I chose this one from Kankoume, which has a strong impression of the seasonal animal series 😊.
The label is stylish, but the taste is also stylish👍Fresh, slightly carbonated, with a clear apple aroma 🍏Slightly sweet, with a slightly fine sake quality.
The second half is refreshingly dry with a refreshing acidity and pleasant bitterness (p.s.) Umah!

Today is the entrance ceremony for my eldest daughter's vocational school🌸
Hi-Q! It was held at the Kammei Arena Sendai (former Sendai City Gymnasium), the sacred place of HIQUE!
So we opened a bottle of spring-like Shihoru Sakura Label 😆.
It has a slight gaseous taste and is generally soft and gentle 😊It also has a moderate acidity and a nice sharpness 😊Umah!
Cherry blossoms were in full bloom in Sendai🌸
Personal rating 8.5/10 points
Ryupapa Good evening ^_^!
Hi-Q! I would like to visit the sacred place of "Hi-Q", but Sendai is too far away!
I'm planning to visit Yokohama on the 21st, and I saw this sake in the stock list of the liquor store I'm planning to stop by 😊.
Good evening, Manta-san 🌙.
My oldest daughter played volleyball in elementary, middle and high school, so of course I got into HIQ! 😅
I drank Shihu at an izakaya before and it was really good, so I was very happy to drink it at home this time 😆.
Ryuppapa-san konbanhar (o´ omega`o)no~~~
Shihu_Hiroshi_⭐️
There are so many new ones out there that I can't keep up with them...... shittatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat.
I'm looking for a new good sake but can't find one that fits my taste as well as purple space😁.
Hi Ryuppa 😃
Congratulations to your eldest daughter for starting school 🌸🎉My daughter is into Haikyuu, but I've never seen it 😅I'm definitely into the purple space one though 😆.
Good morning ✨Congratulations on your eldest daughter starting school ㊗The entrance ceremony was held at the Kamei Arena! It was a big scale entrance ceremony, wasn't it? It's nice that you could celebrate with Purple Space's cherry blossom label!
Erin, good evening 🌙
Purple air is really delicious 🤤.
I don't think I can drink it for a while next time 😭 since it's not available at the liquor store near me.
Sashiu-san, good evening 🌙
Thank you m(_ _)m
It was like a modern entrance ceremony, and parents could enjoy the welcome party by current students 😅.
The purple space was delicious too 🤤.
Good morning, Ryuppa, ☀️Congratulations on your daughter's enrollment 🌸㊗️🎉The holy land of Haikyuu ‼︎ ✨My daughter loves it too 😆I'd love to visit it 😆.
I haven't had Purple Space yet 🌸the label looks delicious 😋.
Good evening, Tsubu.
Thank you very much m(_ _)m
Your daughter also likes HIQUE! I see you like it 😆 By the way, I saw the theater version by myself 😭.
I've only had purple space twice but it's really delicious 🤤.
It's been a long time since I've been to Eiko-Fuji🤤.
It has the gorgeousness that is typical of Eikoufuji, a rich, sweet and tasty yet clear taste with just the right amount of acidity and bitterness.
It's a good drink!

I was curious about Kuroemon XVI, another first for us, as I have been seeing him a lot lately at Sake no Wa 😊.
The ginjo aroma gives off a rich, sweet taste 😆.
As the label says, "The royal road to sweetness! As it says on the label
It has a rich sweetness and umami, a sweetness reminiscent of peach and a berry-like acidity that is full without being too heavy, and a lingering sweetness that lingers for a long time.
I didn't realize it was made with a modern taste until I saw the label 😲.
Personal rating 7.5/10 points
Hi Ryuppa 😃
Congratulations on your first 16th Kuroemon ㊗️ 🎉Kochira is the king of sweetness ‼️ graceful 🤗I don't think the one we had before was that sweet 😅I think it's sweeter if you drink it now! I wonder if it would be.
Good evening.
I also recently had my first cup of Kuroemon XVI 😄.
I drank the green apple 🍏 though,
It didn't match the austere label,
I've never had it before, but I'm sure I'll have to try it again soon.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
I've seen it often but finally bought it 😅I too have started to feel that the sweetness that I used to think was just right might be a bit too sweet these days 😲.
Hello, Mr. Brewer!
Was Mr. Brewer's a green apple 🍏?
It's definitely an austere label but gorgeously fruity 😁.
Looks like that's the concept behind Kuroemon XVI 😉.
This is my first visit to Morai, Aomori Prefecture, following my last visit.
The aroma is sweet from the ginjo aroma, sweet and mellow with a pleasant gasiness 🍇 It is quite sweet but has no sticky feeling, and the beautiful acidity and pleasant bitterness make it refreshing.
I had it in a tin cup, which I have always wanted 🤤.
Personal rating 8/10 points
Hi Jay & Nobby 😊
I've been buying more brands lately that I've never had before 😉 Tin cups are great especially for cold sake, there's something magical about the cold feeling when it touches your mouth 🤤.
Good evening, Mr. Ryuppa 😁.
I've been curious about Du Lai, but I'll buy it next time 😄.
Tin is good! I like the tin one 😋 lately, I like the glass with lacquer on it. I'll upload it next time 🤘.
Hi Colonel Lal!
I bought this when I was shopping in Sendai 🍶, as it is only sold in Miyagi by Sake no Kawashima-san.
The tin gulping cups are very strange 😅.
I didn't know lacquer could be applied to glass 😲.
I've been wanting to try the Macho series 💪 after seeing your post.
I was often torn between Yamadanishiki, Omachi, and Aizan Macho, but this time I chose Aizan: ☺️
Actually, I don't like to buy Aizan, but when I tried it this time, I found it to be a great drink!
The aroma is subdued, and the taste is from the freshness of the sake, to the rummy and pineapple feeling 🍍? The taste is rich, sweet and acidic, especially the lingering umami.
It's amazing that it's so sweet and tasty but not sticky 😲.
Personal rating 8/10 points
Fresh gasiness, gentle and soft sweetness and apple-like acidity to a pleasant bitterness for a clean finish (p.s.) Ummm.

𝗻𝗲𝘄 camping🏕you got a friend😊.
Let me know if you find a good campsite 🎶.
By the way, I haven't been able to visit your local liquor store lately 😭
Good evening Erin 🌙
I'm a solo camper these days 😅.
I would recommend Fukiage campsite in Miyagi 🏕I'm hoping to go to Taneyama Kogen Zodiac Forest this year✨.
It's been quite a while since we've had a "Kenkonichi" 😆.
The rice polishing ratio is kept at 70% and it has a lot of umami, a little dry with pear-like sweetness and good acidity, refreshing but also drinkable.
Personal rating: 7.5/10 points
Good evening, Ryuppa 😃.
Oh! I've connected with "Kenkonichi" Tsubu & Kotori's Kenmin-kai review of health first in Kinkonkan 🤗.
I'll contact you next time 👋
Good evening, Ryuppa-san😄.
I see that you have just had a glass of Kenkunichi. ❣️
I wonder if the taste is different from the super dry one we drank...
I'd like to try the others 😋.
I wonder if we can meet at the next Kenmin-kai ⁉️
I'm looking forward to it!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
We are looking forward to seeing you at the Tochigi Pref.
I have your wife's approval, so if it's convenient for you, I'll join you right away 😁.
Good evening, Tsubu-chan!
I was expecting it to be dry, but I found it to be refreshingly sweet and full of flavor 😊.
I will join the Tochigi Prefectural Association if my schedule allows 🙇.
