9.5 The nose is modest, with fresh grassy, fruity notes. In the mouth, sweetness spreads quickly and pineapple aroma spreads. The finish is sharp with bitterness and acidity. Typical Jyushiyo style. It has a high degree of perfection and is quite tasty, but it is not my favorite.

9.2 Muscat and lychee on the nose. In the mouth, the first thing that stands out is the strong acidity. Behind that is sweetness and a strong umami. Toward the finish, the bitterness and aliveness come out strongly. The bitterness is not bad, but the quality of bitterness is unpleasant, medicinal, and gives me a headache...that is my only regret!

9.3 The initial aroma is of melon and lychee-like blue fruits. In the mouth, the umami of rice and a trace of sweetness spreads. The same aroma as the nose on the rise spreads in the mouth. The finish is smooth and crisp while giving off a leesiness. A little more sweetness and lightness would be preferable. Also, the alu-ness of the attack might be a little too strong.

9.4 The initial aroma is calm, fruity, and astringent, like red grape skins. In the mouth, it has a mild sweetness, umami from rice, and a fruity aroma like red grapes. After that, the astringency and acidity are felt, and it finishes quickly. When heated, the aroma becomes more mellow, and the sweet aroma of rice is soft and gentle. In the mouth, there is a soft sweetness and a mild astringency with a tartness that is like the skin of red grapes. It tastes great when heated and gives a relaxing taste.

9.6 The nose has a beautiful cappiness, pineapple peach and cider-like freshness. In the mouth, there is a pleasant sweetness and acidity, pineapple aroma, and melon and other blue flavors in the back. The finish is smooth and clean. I am not a fan of the so-called "Jyushidai" style, but this one is easy to drink and delicious, with a moderate sweetness and alkalinity. I tasted many brands at Miyakanbai warehouses, and all of them were delicious like this. It is a pity that there are not many distributors of this brand.

9.7 The top aroma is quite mellow muscat and apple with a dusty rice sweet aroma behind it. The fruity flavor is too strong, like a flavored soda. In the mouth, a rounded yet strong sweetness spreads with a gentle acidity. The apple flavor is very strong. After that, the dryness and acidity from the muddy taste occupy the whole body and make it sharp and clean. I don't understand how this flavor can be produced with low rice polishing. Sake is amazing. I can't say that I never get tired of drinking it, but among Kangiku's sake, it is very good with its sharpness, acidity, and dryness. It's like a normal volume sake with less acidity than Sei's active sake? Super tasty.

9.3 The top aroma is like banana, lees, and carbon dioxide. In the mouth, gentle sweetness, banana and cloudiness spread. The aftertaste is exactly banana and ice cream made from banana and milk. The taste is thin, but it has a surprisingly strong alcoholic taste and drinkability... The thinness stands out because the sweetness is weaker than that of Sake Komachi. It's like a low-sugar banana cream amazake soda.

9.0 A full aroma of rice. In the mouth, a slight sweetness and natural rice flavor spreads. After that, the aroma of grains and alcohol spreads on the palate, and it finishes with a crisp finish. It is dry, somewhere in the middle of light and mellow. Suitable for eating. It is a bit half-baked. It is a mediocre but high quality dry sake for eating, but the price is not cheap and it is not suitable for everyday drinking.

9.5 The nose has a sweet melon aroma and a slight alcohol taste. When it hits the palate, a rich sweetness spreads. It has a sweetness of rice like amazake, melon, and a little bit of pineapple. Toward the finish, there is a slight bitterness like the aftertaste of cider or soda water. The finish fades out like water. Drinking it by itself, it is just sweet. In a bad way, it is like melon syrup. It's like a Jyushiyo type. Personally, I thought it was too sweet. But it is very tasty when you drink it little by little.

9.7 The top aroma is fresh and muscat-like, with a moderate sweetness. In the mouth, a fresh, mellow, muscat-like sweetness spreads. At the same time, there are hints of sourness, astringency, and bitterness (like grape skins). (like grape skins) spreads and finishes quickly. It is good on its own or during a meal, but it is the type that you get tired of drinking, and after drinking it for a while, you start to feel a strong sense of alcohol, but it is still quite good. It is also pineapple-like when the temperature rises.

9.9 Weak top note, gentle lactic acidity, lychee, muscat, pear-like sweet aroma. The mouthfeel is smooth and watery. First, an elegant yet intense sweet and sourness explodes in the mouth. The flavor is fresh fruit like pear and muscat. The taste reminded me of cherries and sweet strawberries. As the temperature rises in the mouth, the sweet and sourness becomes more intense, but at the end, it is as smooth as water. It is too good. The aftertaste is strong like pear. Compared to the Rokunoh brew, it is less complex, clearer, and juicier. It tastes like a fruit wine.

9.7 The top aroma is slightly subdued and sweet muscat. In the mouth, it has a mild and moderate sweetness, with aromas of banana and discreet muscat lychee. Immediately after that, you can taste a natural acidity like that of muscat. The finish is sharp and clean, leaving a pleasant tingling sensation in the back of the tongue, like after drinking cider. It is delicious. I like it because it is sharp and refreshing and I never get tired of drinking it. It's good!

9.4 The top aroma was sweet, milky, and reminiscent of vanilla ice cream and calpis. The aroma itself is not that strong. In the mouth, a modest and elegant sweetness spreads first, and then the soft umami of rice, which seems to come from the muddiness, is gradually felt. It is like a thin sweet sake or calpis. The flavors are subdued, but they are pear and lychee. The combination of lightness and muddy umami is interesting.

9.4 The top aroma is mildly sweet with pear and muscat. It is a nice aroma with no harshness. In the mouth, it is richly sweet and slightly nutty. At the same time, the citrus and pear-muscat flavors are discreet and spread out. The bitterness is followed by a bitter taste. The bitterness and rich sweetness give the impression of grapefruit with low acidity. The bitterness has a caramelized bitterness and a core of delicious rice flavor.

9.4 The initial aroma is citrus-driven, with a refreshing lactic acidity. In the mouth, medium sweetness, strong acidity, and fruity flavors reminiscent of citrus fruits such as yellow and orange spread out, followed by bitterness and a touch of alcohol. It finishes with a sharp sharp finish, but the bitterness and alcohol taste remain in the aftertaste. The citrus and alcohol taste is the main taste. It is a bit more on the mid-palate side, but the sweetness is also strong, and it is delicious on its own. There is also a bit of a rummy aftertaste.

At the same time, a slightly chemical bitterness spreads. The finish is somewhat peculiar, with a nutty atmosphere. It tastes good, but at worst it tastes like strawberry-flavored cold syrup. The bitterness is very special.

9.9 The nose has an elegant and mellow aroma of white peaches and muscat, with a slight lactic acid nuance. In the mouth, a rich, mellow sweetness spreads. After that, a small amount of acidity and pleasant bitterness comes in softly and finishes with a crisp finish. There is a slight lingering bitterness. It is an example of a mellow and sharp type of wine. The sweetness and aroma are strong, but the sharpness and balance are good. The bitterness and alty taste do not bother the palate. It's good!

9.9 The nose has a sweet banana-like aroma and a lactic acidic rice aroma. In the mouth, a light nigori (light nigori) flavor is followed by a refreshing cider-like sweetness and a slight umami flavor. After that, a melon-like aroma appears and persists until the end. At the same time, it finishes with a pleasant acidity and a slight tanginess on the tongue. This sake is like an easy-drinking, refreshingly sweet version of Sancho. Meta-damn good. This may be my favorite sake ever. Love the scent of flowers!

9.4 The initial aroma is lactic sweet, like drinking yogurt with added sugar. In the mouth, a languid sweetness spreads first, then gradually rounded acidity, pleasant bitterness like grapefruit, and a refreshing citrus aroma. The mild sweetness spreads again toward the finish and continues downwards with a slight alcohol taste. It is not just a bit sharp. The name may be pulling you in, but it really feels like an orange or blood orange. Good, but I'd prefer something a little lighter.
