I drank it at home because I enjoyed it so much after drinking it at an offline meeting. 100% Yamadanishiki from District A Alcohol 14%. It has a very smooth texture on the tongue. Sweetness, umami, and bitterness. It's very tasty and not too heavy, so you can drink it easily. ❣️ It is so easy to drink that it reminds me of the nigori that I had sealed up 😂. The next day, it tastes even better with sweetness↑bitterness↓❣️ I searched and found that the rice is 70% polished, but I think it's a good price for 1100 yen including tax with this rice and this taste 👍 Yes, I was told that nigori and curry go well together, so I tried it with curry flavored spaghetti! I also paired it with camembert cheese and it was fantastic 😊. I was also told that nigori tastes great warmed up, so I warmed it up to lukewarm and.... Oh! The sweetness is up and the spiciness comes at the end! This is also good... Thanks to Sake-no-wa, I enjoy it in many ways 😊🙏🙏🙏.

Good evening, Pon 😀 I agree with the opinion that nigori with a bit of a tang goes well with curry 😇. I'm impressed that Pon-chan is able to drink at home the sake that she liked at the offline meeting 😀.

This was the only bottle in the fridge, so I opened it💦. 100% Akita Sake Komachi Koji rice 55%, Kake rice 60% polished rice Alcohol 13%. Aroma: White wine, chili Even after drinking...what? It doesn't taste much like it hasn't been opened yet 😳 White wine flavor or grass? It's like a young water like white wine flavor or grass? After the temperature rises, sweetness is finally found. Looking forward to tomorrow🤔. The next day, sweet and slightly bitter, delicious! And still blue like a meadow After that, it tasted the same. It tastes young, which I have never tasted before, but I prefer the sweet and sour taste of the last one 😁.

Hi Pon, good evening. I'm jealous of the fridge that comes out with the ecru if this is the only one 😁✨. I guess the taste varies from year to year, on the one hand it's fun, but on the other hand it's difficult because I expect it to taste like I remember it 😊.

Good evening, Swissisun 🦉. We always have only 3 or 4 bottles in our store, so if we don't go out and buy more, they run out quickly 💦. Different lots have different flavors 🤔The last one I had was right in the middle of my favorites 😂.

Good evening, Pon. This is the only way to go, Mr. Ecru🤣🤣🤣. I would have gone to the liquor store the moment I saw it to buy alcohol that I can drink on a regular basis 🤣🤣. It's hard to open a bottle unless you have a reason to 😅.

Good evening, Pon-chan 🌛I've only ever drank cosmos, so I'm envious of your rasichi 🤤I also love the grace of being able to open it on an ordinary day ✨️I wish I could meet Shinsei-sama more often🥹.

Ponchan❤️This is the only one I can find⁉️, but I'm not sure if it's the ecru 😱grassy, cool feeling, or the effect of the wooden vats 🧐The same colors but different lots (wooden vats?). Different colors have different flavors 🥰I'm too envious either way💕I want to run to it ‼️

Hi Yasbay, good evening 🦉. Usually it's some occasion, but since I couldn't go out to buy alcohol, I thought okay 😂 I'm still hesitant, but when it comes to my husband, it's none at all🤣 I see, I should have asked him to buy me something 🤣.

Good evening Nao888🦉. I've never had Jikin at home 😅I'm very jealous of you because I've never had Jikin at home 😻 I was able to visit Takimoto for the first time in a while the other day and was like a fish out of water 😂.

Good evening, Mr. Pekho 🦉. Wooden vat! Maybe so 👍👍 anyway, it tasted green 😂 my husband and I both thought it was tasteless when we opened it? It was hard? But after the next day, we had it and thought it tasted good after all 😁.

We're trying a lot of things this year... ♪ <Matsuno-no-Masa> (top left) It is easy to cook because of the soggy lees. It has a pungent taste if you eat it as it is, but if you make amazake with it, you don't mind. It's also delicious with a little coffee added to amazake 😁. The most neutral taste in both amazake and sake lees soup. Monsoon (top right) Sake lees from kijoshu (sake made with sake), even as it is, tastes sweet and tasty without being overpowering. It goes well with amazake (sweet sake) and Japanese dishes, and the sake lees soup is not enough. The picture is with tomatoes, the sourness of the 🍅 and the sweet sake lees went well together. ❣️ bottom left I didn't recognize this one until the label. It is lighter than "Monsoon" and goes well with amazake and Japanese food. The photo shows it with kinpira gobo (burdock root). The dark kinpira matched well with the fruity sake lees. ❣️ Furozumi (bottom right) Because it is pressed by a balance, there is still some sake left in the sake, so it goes well with sake lees soup. Cocky finish 😌. Amazake also has a robust taste, a little twangy I mixed it with cream cheese and served it with spinach, but I think it tastes better made with fruity sake lees🤔.

Good evening, Pon. Cooking with sakekasu is also a wonderful way to make use of sake lees: ⤴️ The only thing I could think of was sake lees soup, but there are so many ways to make it 😋. And I'm glad you've recovered to be able to lead a normal life🍀.

I couldn't find the active nigori that everyone was drinking, but I found this one and got it right away! Polishing ratio 65 Alcohol 17%. Classic aroma, fresh and crisp! The taste is also classic, but it is half modern and half sour, making it easy to drink. There is a slight bitterness at the end and a nice spiciness. The next day, it has a good balance of sweetness, flavor and acidity, and is very drinkable and delicious. ❣️ After that, it tasted juicy and easy to drink. Lomang is of course delicious as well 😊. Thanks to you, I can live my life as usual 🙏. I just wanted to drink it as soon as I got better and ended up not drinking it for 5 days 🤣.

Good morning, Koizo 🐥🐥. Yes, it's true! This is my first colored label from this brewery🤣This was easy to drink, but I guess there are only a few of them because they are not listed on Sake no Wawa very often 🤔.

I was going to drink it all up on Feb 22, but I got home from the off day and couldn't drink anymore 😂. 100% Akita Sake Komachi Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 13%. Aroma like white wine, chili with a strong acidity. Slightly bitter aftertaste. The next day, the acidity has settled down and the taste is well-balanced. The bitterness is almost gone and it tastes good. ❣️ After that, the sweetness settles down and the curd is rounded off. It was my first time to drink clear sake at home. I'm not good at strong carbonation, so I might like it better than Spark.

Good evening, Pon. I see you left the flax cat for Nyan Cat Day 😻I guess if it's not shwashy, the pressure to finish it as soon as possible is lessened and you can savor it more calmly. I'm jealous because I don't have any experience with this type of drink.

I went to a lecture for the local community.â I went to the class and was told that there was a sake comparison, so I casually went and tasted 5 different kinds of sake! I was asked to choose one that was easy to understand, but I could only match Kubota, which is stupid 😂. The first round was a bit of a pain, but the second round I was drunk and had a spicy taste in my mouth. I was really impressed with the people who can do sake tasting ✨ We had a get-together later with sake tasting and snacks! Among them was Shuho, which is 33% polished so it was not only aromatic but also tasty and well-flavored. ❣️ I missed it even though it was delicious 🤣. By the way, the participation fee was 1000 yen. It was a fun and inexpensive learning experience 🙏.

Good morning, Pon-chan 😃 We are not familiar with this kind of drinking event 😅I noticed it when you raised it 😳I guess it's too late 🥲 for a few years now 😓I'll try to drink like you next year even if it's a little late 😌.

Risshun morning squeeze from my hometown in Kyoto, purchased at Asano's in Kyoto â Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 16%. Almost no aroma, just a little bit of a chilli. Not much taste? Can't tell? Lightly acidic Fresh anyway The next day, it is fragrant and delicious with a good balance of sweetness and acidity. ❣️ Easy to drink, classic taste. The third day, the sweetness is reduced, but the taste is still delicious and tasty. I haven't had any Tsuki no Katsura except nigori for a long time. I would like to try the others because they are so good.

Japanese>English

ひるぺこ

Good evening, Pon. I love that you have two local varieties of Risshun Asa Shibori 💕I can feel spring just by looking at the picture of the bottle. I tend to put off drinking Tsuki no Katsura because I think I can drink it anytime, but it tastes so good when I drink it like this 😊.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Ponchan 🌙 Geez, isn't that ❗️ Tsuki no Katsura 😳 I only remember drinking nigori nigori in Fushimi, but it was a good sake 🤗. I've promised myself to make a reservation for next year to drink Risshun Asashimusubi ❤️

Good morning, Ponchan 😁. I see you drank Risshun Asa Shibori 😊. I've been meaning to buy one every year but haven't yet 👌. I've been meaning to buy it every year but haven't been able to, so I'll definitely buy it next time 😊. I'm going to drink it at Asano-san's store this year😅

Hi Peco 🐦. Expectations? Prejudice? I got this one thinking that if it's a Risshun morning pressing, it must be good no matter which one I drink 😁I didn't know they brew fresh ones like this 😳I have to remind myself to drink some of the brands I drank in the past 😅.

Japanese>English

ポンちゃん

Hi Hiro 🐦. Yes, nigori is delicious, isn't it? I was just looking forward to trying it when I saw the Okura-san on a TV show in Kansai. It's hard to keep the fridge stocked this time of year, but there are many delicious ones, so please come back next year 😊.

Hi, Ao-chan 🐦. I've been to Asano-san and they have up to 6 different kinds of sake. I was just buying it because the one I wanted to drink hadn't arrived yet when I visited 😊👍😢I thought I only had this one bottle and then I got a tel from a liquor store in Shiga 😂.

I couldn't find this one at the liquor store where I usually buy Wakamusume, so I thought it was a bad idea. Do you have pink wakamusume? I asked them if they had any pink wakamusume, and they looked for it in the back and brought it to me! I'm glad I said so 😊. Saito no Shizuku 100% Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15.5 Gorgeous aroma, piquant, sweet and fruity Slightly bitter After the next day, it becomes juicy with sweet flavor. It is very tasty both when opened and afterwards. ❣️ It is a sake that makes you feel happy and reminds you of spring 🌸. If I wanted to, I would have liked to drink light nigori 🤭.

Hello Kotaro🐦. If you go to a liquor store often, they will remember your face even if you have never talked to them before, so you can ask them what kind of alcohol you want 😊If they don't have it, you can get some information from them 👍.

Purchased at Isetan Kyoto Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol 17 Very nice aroma, not too much chilli, but fresh. Not much sweetness, but a refreshing umami and acidity. Slowly spiciness... As the temperature rises, sweetness comes in. The next day, the sweetness comes out and it is well balanced and very tasty. ❣️ Somewhat banana-like flavor. The 3rd day, it is delicious with a calm and delicious flavor. 4th day, easy to drink, classic flavor. I bought this sake at the tasting and sale by the brewer! He talked a lot of interesting things and made us feel like we were in a bar halfway through the tasting 😆. I had a hard time deciding between this one, Junmai-Niho and Hyakumangoku White out of the 5 or so sakes I had, but since it was this time of year, I went for the Shiboritate! I want to drink the other two again 😊.

Purchased at Takimoto's. ♪ 100% Miyamanishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture Polishing ratio 59 Alcohol 14%. Magnum bottle was kept in the vegetable compartment at an angle💦. Almost no aroma, hard taste and bitterness. On the third day, there was a faint aroma of white wine and a faint taste of white wine. Taste and acidity are apparent, with a touch of bitterness Still hard. On the fifth day, the aroma is more pronounced. The taste is clearer and easier to drink than on the 3rd day, but it is not open yet. On the 6th day, the sweetness has come out and it seems to have opened up. A white wine that tends toward sake has become a sake that tends toward white wine. On the 7th day, the acidity has increased and the balance of sweetness and acidity is good. The bitterness has softened. This may be a sign that the wine has opened up! On the 10th day, the aroma is like sake, the acidity is sharp, and the flavor is delicious! It's gone now, but I'm curious to see how it will change in the future. I liked it on day 6-7. ❣️

I was hungry after skiing 20 years before that, and I drank this one with a nice mouthfeel 😅.

Thanks again for this one, Kojo 😊. I thought it was sweet too...but it was sweet! I don't feel like I'm sweet anymore 😢 Maybe I don't feel it anymore because of the increase in sweet drinks 😂.

Hello, Pon-chan😄♪ Pon, you must have had the curse of the cloudy taste 🫢. If that's the case, I might have the whiskey curse 😜I drank too much when I was super young and I haven't broken the seal yet 😂.

Good evening, Tsubu 🦉. The whiskey curse! That was scary 😱I had a painful experience when I was younger but for some reason I didn't get cursed 😆 I think the niggles were substantial 😂I'm relieved to hear you all have them 🤣.

at Naoki's (in Kyoto) I told them I wanted something fruity, and they said they didn't have much of that, but they recommended this one to me 😊. It has a nice aroma, acidity, sweetness and umami, and is easy to drink. And the unique flavor of Asakayasou, or quirkiness 🤔. It went well with the shirako ponzu vinegar. ❣️ This is my first time to try this sake, but I always forget about it because it was released early in September 😅. I was happy to be able to drink the brand I wanted to drink! I want to visit Hirai Shoten again! As for the rest, We had a freshly opened bottle of "Wataya Tokusyu Miyamanishiki"! It has almost no aroma, a little bit of umami and acidity, and is very refreshing! It went well with light sashimi as well as darker flavors such as amberjack. Sanrensei Jungin Nakadori Unfiltered Nama Sake, also freshly opened! Nice aroma, soft sweetness and umami! It was delicious and drained off the oil from the chicken cutlet!

Good evening, Pon-chan. I have the impression that I liked Minakotsukagari because I could feel the unique peculiarity of Asakayousei 😋. Well, I haven't had Asakayasheng recently 🤔.

Thank you very much Yasubeyesan! It's a really small brewery in the shopping arcade 😊It's close to Lake Biwa, so you can buy some and have lunch there 😉I wish there were one or two more breweries around 💦.

Hi Hanapin 🐦. This little plate of food is the appetizer 😳as you said, you can drink a lot with just this 😆I was ready to order but I could only eat three more dishes 😂.

Hi, soumacho 🐦. There were a number of small bowls of food that you could have if you were drinking alone 😆 The albacore is delicious - I was happy too 😋. Shiga sake has a lot of robust flavors to go with the meal 😊.

Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦. I'm always happy and grateful to receive these little things, wondering how many hours it would take me to make them at home 😁 You can't convert everything 😂.

Hi ma-ki-! This place seems to be a popular izakaya and I couldn't get a reservation 😳 and I don't drink out much so it was fun! And since I don't drink out much, it's fun! My goal is to make it my favorite place like you do 😁.

Hi bouken 🐦. I agree, there is a unique flavor of asakayo 😁I like this one, but it may be different for different tastes 🤔.

Good evening, Pon-chan. Asameo, this is the first time I have heard of this brand. There are many kinds of Shiga sake. The izakaya seems to have a good choice of sake and food, and is a place I would like to visit.

Good evening, Maruwa-san 🦉. Shiga has many small breweries, so many of them are not nationally known 💦 This one is easy to drink even for Shiga sake, so I recommend it 😊If you come across it in Shiga or Kyoto, please do!

こぞう

Pon. Good evening... Yo, yo, I can't read...💦 Unusual name for a brewery and sake 🤩I've never seen or heard of it before! The sake is fascinating, but all the snacks lined up seem to go well with sake 🤤.

Thank you very much, Koizo! I googled "asajio" 😊I saw that it is sparsely populated with chigaya (a kind of silver grass) 🤣. This store was recently on Ota-san's show 😳

This is Xmas 😂 I was curious about it so I brought it home with me along with the kudoki-niu! Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol 14 degrees Sandesi. When loosened, the lees rises and rises like snow ❄ A light white rice aroma, a little bit of a shwashwa. It has a refreshing sweet and sour taste, with a strong acidity. Slightly dry with a bitter taste. Is this really a kijoshu? It's so refreshing 😳 I left a little and drank it on the third day, but it was still very refreshing. The sweetness has gone up a bit, but the acidity is strong and there is bitterness. I think I should have drunk it all freshly opened 🤔. Still, I enjoyed it with a smoked salmon sandwich 😋.

Good evening, Ponchan 🌛I was curious about this one because of the label, but it's a kijoshu ✨️ I've never had a kijoshu, but it looks sweet and sour and delicious 🤤It's nice that you can try it at Sandesi 🍶.

Good evening, Pon-chan. I like the Xmas label: ⤴️ Is it a refreshing kijoshu? I haven't had any kijoshu in a long time 🎵. I'm sure it's easy to try Sandesi 😊.

Good morning Pon, good morning ☀️ Christmas sake a month late 😁. I've never had this 😅I have an image that I don't like kijoshu... But I think I can drink it from your review 😊.

Hi Yasbay 🐦. I just wondered what would happen the next day 💦 I also felt that the two of you would have had a drink in no time and it would have been better to drink that day 😂.

Hi Yutaro 🐦. I too wish they made this in four-pack bottles 😊. It's a sandesi but it's fairly priced, so I guess no one bought it after Xmas 🤔 I was lucky to have some left 😁.

Hi chika 🐦. I would buy a sparkling sake, even a nigori one, if it was a kijoshu 😉. Tasake Valentine's Day label 💝It doesn't miss 👍✨.

Hi Nao888 🐦. Sparkling🫧 of kijoshu is very rare, isn't it? And it's nigori and Sandesi is asking me to buy it for you 😆 It was more acidic than other kijoshu 🤔.

ポンちゃん

Hi ma-ki-chan🐦! I'm a new sake drinker this time of year, and since there are a lot of nigori sake, I don't get around to kijoshu 😂I wanted to try something different, so I picked this up 😊It was on the lighter side of kijoshu 😋.

Hi T.KISO 🐦 I just realized this was my first time drinking this 😆 I want to drink the regular one next time 😊I wouldn't know if you didn't say it's easy to drink but it's definitely not enough in T.KISO's house I just realized that this was my first time drinking Ippaku Suisei 😆 I want to drink the regular one next time 😊I don't know if you don't call it kijoshu, it's easy to drink but it's definitely not enough in T.KISO's house 😂.
