It is light and refreshing with a touch of sweetness. It goes well with meals, but can also be enjoyed as an aperitif. It does not leave a sticky taste in the mouth after drinking. I like sweet sake, so I wasn't sure if I could drink it, but it was too good. It is a good thing that I can drink it without hesitation.

I got hooked on Hinemos and drank many kinds, but they are all delicious. The product names, such as "ichiji" and "niji," are time-based. It's fashionable. All of them are low in alcohol content, so you can drink a lot without worrying about the next day. The products are also pleasing to the eye, with a strong sense of transparency or a cloudy appearance, depending on the product.

This cherry blossom edition is limited to this time of the year. Only rice and rice malt are used to produce this pink color. It is also very tasty. The low alcohol content makes it easy to drink.

It's very, very easy to drink. Like muscat juice. Suitable for beginners. If it is chilled in the refrigerator, it is refreshing and tasty, but if it is chilled at room temperature, it is a bit sweet and tart. It is best to drink it like a sweet, not with a meal.

It has a strong sour taste in the mouth, but the sweetness swells in the mouth. I have never been a fan of strong acidic sake, but I can enjoy drinking this one. It is not too dry and has a slight sweetness.

Very light on the palate. It can be drunk smoothly. It is a junmai daiginjo with a rice polishing ratio of 48%, but the alcohol content is 15%, so you can enjoy drinking it without getting drunk too quickly. It is best to drink it with a meal, not by itself, while savoring it.

This is Nadagiku Shuzo's top quality sake. It is smooth, but has a strong depth and aroma. The rice polishing ratio is 38%, so the price is high, but so is the aroma. It is good to drink with a meal, but if you want to feel its aroma and gorgeousness, it is better to drink it alone.

Sweet and refreshing. Goes very well with meals. Better to drink with a meal than by itself. Both the white and black oden were delicious. The taste is rich and the sake lees is very tasty, I would like to try it again soon.

It is indeed delicious. The aroma seems less, but it tastes good. It is like water. The aroma and taste do not interfere with the meal, for better or worse. However, it doesn't seem to go well with strong flavored snacks.

Very fruity and easy to drink. The first sip goes into the mouth without any habits like water, and the sweet and sour aroma spreads in the mouth. It is easy to drink, although it has a slight tang. There is no habit.

The first sip has a strong aroma and a sharp taste on the nose, but the aftertaste is very refreshing. It is like a typical Japanese sake. It also makes your throat feel hot, but it's very refreshing and tasty.

Shotoku冬の酒 活性にごり

I bought a bottle of "Shotoku Winter Sake Activated Nigori" which was released today and is only available in winter. Similar to Kita-Akita, this nigori sake has a shriveled appearance due to the fermentation (activation) of the yeast in the bottle. Be careful when opening the bottle, as it will overflow. It is quite dry, and has a full flavor that goes into the nose, which is characteristic of nigori sake. Just one glass will make your throat hot. Personally, I prefer to drink it slowly and savor it, rather than to drink it in a gung-ho manner.

Junmai Daiginjo-shu, brewed with a Yamahai sake mother, is very mellow. The aroma passes through the nose. It has a strong aroma and taste, but it is suitable for everyone. Personally, I cannot drink this sake by itself. The aroma has a peculiar flavor, but the taste is so robust that you can feel the sake's goodness even with very solid snacks, such as crab miso and squid wadding, etc.

Easy to drink. It is smooth and easy to drink. However, I personally feel that it tastes better when drunk with a meal rather than as a stand-alone sake. Oily food can negate the goodness of this sake, so it goes well with tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce), simmered dishes, and other meals where you can feel the goodness of the dashi (soup stock).

If you drink this sake alone, the acidity is harsh. It is very acidic and tastes very bad on the nose. However, it is delicious when drunk with a meal. Since this sake has a strong acidity, it goes well with oily or strong-flavored food such as stewed cubes.

Purchased a freshly squeezed (Shiboritate) Fukuju, which can only be purchased at the sake brewery. The aroma is fruity. When you put it in your mouth, it tingles in your nose, and you may feel it is aromatic and a little harsh. It is dry but easy to drink. It is so easy to drink that if you drink it too much, you may get drunk later on.

Not sweet but very drinkable. It has no habits. It goes well with meals and can be drunk smoothly. If you want to drink a crisp sake, you may feel it is not enough.
