The label is austere and cool🫶. the whisker lettering on the label Looks like a cross between Asahi and Asahi? There's a picture of rice underneath 🌾. Alcohol content: 15 degrees I drank it heated because it was cold ❄ Slightly yellowish in color, with a sweet aroma when poured. When you put it in your mouth, you feel a little tangy at first. The sweet rice aroma spreads slowly (maybe because it's warmed up). The aftertaste is not sticky, just a gentle sweetness. It's easy to drink even when heated, and doesn't overpower the food. Even people who don't like hot sake can drink it easily 😳. It's good to have it on hand at home. 🙆🏻‍♀️

Harushika屠蘇酒

The first sake of 2025 is a tokoso sake🐍. This is the first time I've had a slaughter sake from the Harushika brewery 👏. It's a liqueur but I'm giving it away: 🙋‍♀️ Alcohol content: 12 Extract: 16% or more Ingredients: mirin, sake, sansho peel, cinnamon peel, mandarin orange peel, Chinese bellflower root, hamabokaze, okera stem leaves Yellow in color with a soft aroma. Gently sweet, with a fresh cinnamon-like aroma that fills the mouth 🤍. It is easy to drink and not so peculiar. I think it tastes better when it is chilled. It goes well with black soybeans for Osechi. I want to enjoy drinking in 2025 while taking care of my health. 🙂‍↕️

I bought this sake when I visited Hase Temple last year. Nakayama Sake Shop is located in the middle of the approach to the temple, I read that you can only buy it here, so I bought it! I let it sleep too long until now 😂. The label looks like a Haseji motif. Alcohol content: 20 degrees Celsius Sake with color The sweet aroma of rice comes through with a bang 🌾. Warmed up because of the cold weather 🍶. Sweet on the palate, it was surprisingly not heavy when drunk! The alcohol and aroma gave it a punch!

Shikizakuraとちぎの星純米酒

Utsunomiya Shuzo Tochigi

Long time no record keeping ✍️ I bought this at a convenience store 🥟 when I went on my Utsunomiya gyoza trip. Beautiful label, stylish, and the color of the bottle makes me want to use sea glass✨. Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 15 Rice used: 100% Tochigi no Hoshi The aroma of the rice was a bit strong when it was cold, but when it was warmed up, it became fluffy. I prefer it hot rather than cold. It's clear when cold, but a little yellowish when heated. It has a mild flavor without any harshness, which makes me want to drink it slowly 🐢. But it has a sharp taste with no aftertaste.

Japanese>English

Good evening, sake and nail polish. ⭐️ First of all, I'm too jealous of your Utsunomiya gyoza trip😍and I never thought I'd find a sake that heats up at a convenience store! Welcome back sakewa😊.

Harushika純米超辛口生原酒仕込第壱號 -2023BY FIRST BREW SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION-

4/16/2024, 1:17:11 PM

Courier sake 📦 from my visit to Harushika's brewery. The mirrored look of the label is cool️🩵. I want it on my nails🫧. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 18%. It has a clear and fresh aroma. When you drink it, the sweetness and melon-like aroma spreads on the palate with a fresh feel on the tongue. The sharpness of the super dry taste makes it a little numbing, and it does not become sticky at the end of drinking. The lingering aroma lingers in the mouth. You can enjoy it just by drinking it without rice. It's good cold, but at room temperature, it has more gusto and a strong taste. ✊🏻

It's been a long time since I've had a drunken whale. The whale flying on the label is beautiful 🐋. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 15 Rice：100% Yamadanishiki When put in a glass, it looks colorless and transparent, with a slightly sweet aroma. It has a strong and sharp taste, which fades away as soon as you put it in your mouth. The sharpness is really good 👐. There is no lingering aftertaste, but the fruity aroma remains in the mouth. It's refreshing though and doesn't bother me. I liked it 🙈. A little after opening the mouth, the acidity also comes out and it's twice as enjoyable. Looks like it should be served cold in a glass 😶. I drank it with bonito tataki and it was delicious with a crisp cut along with the aroma of burnt bonito 🐟.

Onsen trip, one at a ryokan: ♨️ The faceted boar cups are nice and captured together. The little cherries on the label? The symbol that looks like a small cherry is casual and cute 🍒. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 15-16 degrees Celsius Clear and colorless, without much aroma from the graph. A little banana-like aroma at first if not paired with food. It is neither light nor heavy, and it gradually disappears from the mouth with an image that is neither clear nor sharp. It was easy to drink and matched any meal at the ryokan without interfering. 🙆🏻‍♀️ I drank it cold, but I'd like to try it warmed as well 🍶.

Sake 2🦌 purchased on a trip to Nara Continuation of purchases at the souvenir shop in front of Toshodaiji Temple A quick shot with the Gassho Serval Cat that I got from a gacha. The picture of Toshodaiji and Yakushiji Temple on the label is a good souvenir 🎁. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 16%. The aroma is not so strong and has a slight yellowish taste. A few days after opening the mouth, you can taste a round, rich sweetness and a soft, floral aroma. When drinking, the sourness comes and then slowly fades away. I enjoyed it more at room temperature than cold. It is not so habitual, so it can be paired with various meals without disturbing the taste. It was great with chocolate 🍫.

Rice polishing ratio: 58 Alcohol content: 15 Seller: Wholesale Sake Brewers of Atami (Ito City) I used it to make a slaughterhouse 🐉. It was my first time to make a tokoso, and the sweet taste and Chinese herbal-like aroma made it unique but surprisingly tasty 🫶. The sake itself is The sake itself is clear and colorless, without much aroma when poured. It was sweet on the palate, and although the aroma was not strong, the alcohol was noticeable in the nose. I think it would have been better to drink it warmed. I wasn't sure about the deep sea water blend🥹.

The annual wintertime Spring Deer: ⛄️ The label and bottle colors are wintery and pretty 🙈💕 Drinking to go with Osechi! Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 19%. When poured into a glass, it has a slightly yellowish color, The aroma is a little floral. When you drink it, the freshness of the sake comes through with a gusto because it is raw plus 19% alcohol, The end result is a soft, gentle sweetness. At the end, there is no lingering aftertaste, but a sticky sweetness. It's like a girl hiding a little sweetness in the strength. 👧🏻 It's a raw sake, so I drank it cold and with a glass of Harushika 🦌. I look forward to 2024 🐉.

Purchased on a trip to Izu because I was curious about the shape of the bottle, which I don't see very often. ♨️ The 300 ml bottle is an easy size to buy and take home. Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 15 Slightly colored, with a sour taste and aroma of rice spreading on the palate. It has no sweetness and is tangy and spicy. It is not sweet, but rather tangy and dry, I prefer to drink it warmed 🫣. It was a great match with soba noodles 😸.

I bought this sake back in May and had it sitting in the fridge until I finally opened it✨ Sawaya Matsumoto is not sold in many liquor stores, so I'm happy to be able to buy it 👏. Rice polishing ratio: not stated Alcohol content: 15%. Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki Production Date: 21.1 When I first opened it, the lid flew off like champagne 🍾. When you put it in a glass, the bubbles stick to the glass and it is slightly carbonated. When you drink it, it has a banana-like aroma and sweetness. It has a sweetness to it with a slight sweetness, The end result is a nice sharp taste. It is good to drink it chilled in a glass. 🙆🏻‍♀️ It was good when I drank it with Bakudan.

Sake purchased on a trip to Nara 🦌. Purchased at the souvenir shop right in front of Toshodaiji Temple. There is a pop-up saying you can only buy it here 👀. A quick shot with the Zazen platypus I got from a gacha 💕. Rice polishing ratio: 50%. Alcohol content: 16%. When you put it in a glass, it has a slight yellow tint and a fresh aroma. When you drink it, the aroma is not so strong and refreshing, and there is no cloying feeling. 🙅‍♀️ There is a slight tanginess in the throat at the end of drinking. It's a quiet and solemn sake because it's a sake from Yamato. At room temperature, the sweetness of the rice lingers as an aftertaste. I think it tastes best cold, as the aroma stands out the most. It is easy to drink because it has no habits.

Japanese>English

Good evening, sake and nail polish. I see you went to Kitora. They have a great selection of Nara sake 😆 For some reason I like Yakushi Nyorai at Yakushiji Temple, so I haven't been there in a while 😊.

Harushika純米超辛口中取り熟成生原酒

11/20/2023, 11:34:35 AM

I found a limited edition of Harushika at a liquor store and bought it! The super dry part of the label is a cool pink mirror 🩷. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 18%. When you pour it into a glass, the first thing you notice is the clarity? It has a lustrous aroma. When you put it in your mouth and taste it slowly, the melon-like melon flavor aroma and the mild sweetness of the rice spreads. As soon as you put it in your mouth and swallow it, it immediately becomes crisp as if it were a super dry Harushika. It does not just become zero, but the lingering sweetness of the rice remains. I felt it was a sake whose aroma could be enjoyed in the aftertaste 🍃. It would go well with a cold, thin glass for a refreshing taste 😶. It went best with oden 😸.

Subtitle: "OK Manager's Choice of Delicious Sake from Sake Breweries Super-purchased sake from Nara It seems that Harushika sake brewery collaborated with Bottle World OK, When I went to the supermarket, I was won over by the claim that there were only 580 bottles left 🥹. The picture of a real deer on the label is very Nara-like and I like it 🦌. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 17%. Sold by: Bottle World OK Producer: Imanishi Seibei Shoten Co. Cold at first, a little yellow in the glass, It has a ginjo-shu-like aroma before you drink it. As you drink it, you are enveloped by soft sweetness and aroma At the end, it has some sharpness and the sweet aroma extends slowly. I tried drinking it at room temperature and hot. I like it best when it's hot 🩷. Drinking it while riding the Aoniyoshi was the best 🫠.

I bought the jackets at a liquor store! The label with the moon on the sea is beautiful and my favorite💕 I heard it reads "Umizuki" ✍️ Rice polishing ratio: 50%. Alcohol content: 17 Rice used: 100% Miyamanishiki Gorgeous and sweet aroma wafts from the glass before drinking. The mouthfeel is not so sweet. The umami envelopes you softly. It has a sharp and slightly tangy taste on the palate rather than a lingering aftertaste 🤔. When served chilled with a dark colored sake cup, it makes you feel like you are on the Sea of Japan at night 🌛. If you drink it with bonito, you'll feel like you're at the Sea of Japan at night 🌛. 🙆🏻‍♀️ I could enjoy just the sake without any snacks. The fact that it is a daiginjo but has a proper flavor, I thought it was typical of Yamagata sake 🫠.

Good evening, sake and nails. I love the reflection of the moonlight on the sea 🌕✨It sure makes me want to buy the jackets 😊Nails are great too💕.

When you put it in your mouth, the aroma and flavor of the rice is smooth and smooth. The aftertaste slowly fades away. It is not particularly interesting but seems to be a good value. It tastes better at room temperature than cold, with a mellow and gorgeous aroma. I think it goes well with the strong atmosphere if you drink it with a pottery sake cup.

I thought it was "Ryuriki" for "dragon power", I learned to read it as "tatsu-riki": ✍🏻 I want to know how the rice used to make it is different from the rice made in the special A district 😶. The label red and black line gold is cool and samurai-like! Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 15 Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki (produced in special A district in Hyogo Prefecture) The aroma is gentle and not strong. The palate is soft with a rich sweetness and umami of the rice. The aftertaste is clean and crisp. Unlike the label, it has a light atmosphere and is easy to drink with little peculiarity. It would be good with savory food such as tatami sardines. 🙆‍♀️ It might be better to drink it with ceramic sake cups.
