I was on vacation, so I opened the bottle while chewing on the happiness of being able to drink it whenever I wanted without worrying about the timing. It is light, modern, and has a great sharpness. It is a sake that is intuitively delicious without any difficulty.

This is a limited edition Nabeshima sake, known as "Ura-Nabeshima," which I have been curious about for some time. The aroma is of tropical fruits, and the sweetness comes with a bang at first, followed by mellow umami and acidity from the middle to the end of the bottle, which slowly fades away with a touch of astringency. There is no gassiness, and the aftertaste is long. I have another bottle in stock, so I'll give it some time before drinking!

After three months of absence, I immediately pulled this chilled bottle out of the refrigerator at home. It has a refreshing fruity aroma and a light, low-alcoholic mouthfeel with a gentle sweetness and acidity. It tastes like it would complement food as a mealtime sake. It is delicious 😋.

Good evening, Gin Neko! Thank you for coming home for the first time in 3 months🍀. URARA is delicious, isn't it😋? I had one a while ago and I like it because it's easy to drink 🤗. It's also good that you can drink it smoothly with low alcohol 😁.

Good evening, ma-ki- san! URARA was delicious. I surely drank it like water 😅It's been hot lately, so I'd like to drink it cold 😋.

I was lucky enough to be able to buy a bottle of Sake Musashi from Huahiyo-yoku. The taste is a little different depending on the sake rice, but it is still a HanayoYauke. The juicy umami, rich sweetness, and refreshing aftertaste are all fused together at a high level of deliciousness 😋I would like to buy a bottle next time.

I had decided to drink this daiginjo on a special occasion, but there was no sign of it even coming, so I opened the bottle. The special junmai is delicious enough, but it has a very good balance of flavors and is light and supremely delicious 😋 It is a carefully brewed sake that deserves to be called bishu.

Daiginjo-shu made with Aomori Gin-Torikabuto. The aroma is refreshing melon🍈 and pear🍐, the mouthfeel is thick, and the umami has depth and no miscellaneous flavors. Very elegant finish and very satisfying. I would drink it again if I had the chance😋.

It was too easy to drink, and I opened the bottle while reflecting on the fact that the last time I drank it all in one night. As usual, there is no alu feeling, and the acidity is impressive, surpassing the refreshing sweetness in the schwash. The mouthfeel is reminiscent of a lactic acidic carbonated beverage, and it still goes down very well 😋 I left half of the bottle, so I am looking forward to the changes tomorrow and beyond.

Urobon, I didn't realize you had 5 in front of you. 😢It's so frustrating. ⤵️ They sell out quickly after they go on sale, so next time I find one, I won't hesitate to buy it!

This is my first Chibijin. It is highly carbonated, with a slight sweetness in the schwash, and the overall impression is fresh and clear. I expect it to be a bit more rounded after tomorrow... In any case, it is a sake that is classified as a caution against drinking too much 😋.

The cork of the sake I was going to drink was too hard to open, so I opened this one in a hurry. It has a fruity melon-like aroma, a wonderful balance of sweetness and acidity, and a refreshingly delicious aftertaste. Compared to the Junmai we drank earlier, it was a step above in glamour and to our liking.

Still available, spring sake. We opened a bottle of Nabeshima Blossom🌸Moon🌙. The aroma is citrusy and the mouthfeel is quite light, with a strong umami, but the lingering aftertaste is short and the bitter acidity cuts through it nicely. It has a slightly different taste from the rich type of Nabeshima, but I think it is an excellent sake that can be enjoyed on its own or with food. It is delicious 😋.

Gin Neko, good evening! BlossomsMoon is delicious 🎵! When I first started to work at Sake-no-Wa, this was the first Nabe-sama I had and I remember thinking it was so delicious 😋! I remember thinking it was delicious 😋.

This is the first Mikotsuru I have had, a sake brewed with Yamae Nishiki. The aroma is slightly citrusy, and the taste is sweet but not cloying, and the bitterness is controlled, leaving a long, refreshing sweet aftertaste. The label is more classical, but the taste is very elegant and refined 😋.

Yamae Nishiki in Nagano, numb, Nice.... Hana-yokuyo in the modern style, Toichi, Kamokin, which is good even though it's old-fashioned. Hard to buy, but you're drinking good stuff 😋.

Thank you for your comment, KomeChidori. I have been curious about Gokotsuru for a while, and it was as good as I expected. I'm having trouble with the number of brands I like these days.

Opened a bottle of Kangiku Aizan, which has a beautiful label design. The aroma is gorgeous, and you can enjoy a beautiful sweetness and acidity with a hint of gas. It is light and easy to drink 😋. It gives the impression of a beautiful sake that has been carefully brewed without any unpleasant taste. It is delicious.

It's been a while since I opened a bottle of Huayouyasui, and I was a little nervous. It is a fruity sweetness and acidity that reminds me of tropical fruit 🍍🥭🥭🏝️, which no longer needs explanation. There are numerous sake varieties in existence, but this flavor is unique. Once again, I realized the deliciousness of Hanayo.

It is the most strongly carbonated sake I have had in recent years, and for a 13% sake, it has a strong sake taste and a strong rice flavor. It is not too sweet, so you can continue drinking it without getting tired of it 😀.

Even though I live in a country with everlasting summer, I felt a strange sense of duty to drink spring sake before it gets too hot, so I opened the bottle💦. It has a gentle sweet aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, the soft sweetness and sourness spread to your palate 😋 It is very easy to drink with a light, light, non-habitual taste. The slight sweet and sourness lasts for a while and leaves you with a happy aftertaste 😊I bought it because I liked the design, and it was a great decision. It is delicious.

This sake is brewed from Jukinmu rice, which is a rice suitable for sake brewing. It has a mild ginjo aroma and a gentle sweetness and umami flavor on the palate. The finish is slightly dry and disappears quickly, so it is excellent as a food sake 😋 It is a daiginjo-shu, as one would expect - delicious.
