備忘録として、はじめました!日本酒は2年前頃から特にはまり、最近趣味で唎酒師を取得しました🍶日本酒とのペアリングが楽しくて日々研究中です。醇酒と薫酒の中間あたり、お米の甘みのあるまろやか旨口系が好きです。 酔った勢いで書いているので、感想はあまり参考になりません😌

Harushikatype-HA純米吟醸生酒

Mellow sake. Harushika's limited edition sake! Harushika has a wide variety of sake, from fresh sake to mellow sake. I bought this one because I heard from the liquor store that this one is easy to match with Western food. The aroma is not so strong, but the aftertaste is amazing! The mild umami and sharp aftertaste go well with cheese and fatty snacks.

Fashionably labeled Tasake! It starts off sweet and mellow, and later on you can taste the sharpness, so it is very satisfying as a stand-alone sake. It is also a good food sake, and when served at room temperature, it goes well with stir-fried dishes.

Smoked sake. The aroma is pineapple. It is irresistibly delicious! The umami is moderate, but the sweetness and depth are strong, so there is no "the sake" feeling. It is very easy to drink.

My friend bought a four-pack after tasting it on a brewery tour. I tasted several other specs and liked this one the best! We were allowed to drink the well water used for brewing water at the brewery and it was very tasty. It is a perfect match with cheese marinated in miso.

During a visit to a sake brewery, I purchased this sake made from rice grown in Tochigi Prefecture and drank it after returning home! Compared to Gohyakumangoku and Yamadanishiki, it had a milder yet more robust flavor.

Hi Jay & Nobby! We enjoyed the sake brewery tour. The milky berries went perfectly with the fruity sake.

It has the richness of junmai-shu and the pichi pichi shuwashi of activated nigori sake! Many people said they liked it.

Last of the day! No memory... I had an image of a blue label, so it was a first time for me to see this Kainaru.

It's mellow and refreshing and can be enjoyed on its own or with food! I'm a sucker for limited editions...😍This was my first time drinking Oroku but I've heard a lot about it and I'd like to try other types of sake again.

I'm glad I got to taste it first this time because I have a 4-pack bottle waiting at home and haven't opened it! Like the other reviews and the owner's recommendation, it's piquant, shrieky, and delicious! Less bitterness and sharpness, but gassy. Looking forward to drinking it at home😊.

Ni-no-shu and Shi-no-shu. Yamadanishiki and Kako. In agreement with the opinions of those around him, he prefers Ni-no-no-no-zakari!

I thought Nito was too acidic for my taste, but it was mildly robust and tasty, probably because it was made from Omachi.

Well-balanced sake! The taste is balanced, with a little bit of refined umami added for a more expansive feel. The first time I heard of Kaze no Mori's original technique, "ikaki pickling," which is a method of collecting sake oozed out by osmotic pressure, and the taste was clearer than usual!

Aged for 7 years, Ichiroman! It's that time of the year for Ichiromant, and I can't believe I got to taste a seven year old bottle. I was served it warm, and the aroma alone was enough to satisfy me. The flavor was also very relaxing as the umami spread softly and gently. The sake is said to have been stored in a sake brewery.

Mellow sake. It has a concentrated flavor of umami and sweetness, yet somehow it is easy to drink. It is a wonder! The pile driver is apparently inspired by a wrestling technique in which the sake is extracted and bottled directly from the top using only gravity.
