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.

This sake is brewed with Hakutsuru Nishiki. The aroma is mildly fruity, with a juicy sweetness and a rich umami flavor. It is a well-balanced, easy-drinking sake that you can drink as many glasses as you want. It is delicious!

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 😀.

Good evening, KomeChidori. I have been drinking a little bit while paying respect to Imanishi Sake Brewery's philosophy of sake brewing.

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.

Slightly carbonated, very easy to drink with a perfect balance of sweetness and sourness. 15%, but I don't feel the alu feeling and the bitterness is controlled, so I think it would be suitable for those who don't like Japanese sake. Personally, I would have liked a little more impact of some sort😊.

Corked a bottle of Tazake with a cute label. The gorgeous aroma reminds us of spring. It has a clear and sharp taste with a firm rice flavor. As one would expect from Tasake's ginjo-shu, it is delicious 😋.

I don't buy from resellers. Excellent. Sake such as Danshu, Nabeshima, Kaze no Mori, Sharaku, etc. are exorbitant prices even in regular supermarkets. I also try not to buy them. I also try not to buy them.

Good evening KomeChidori. In order to support sake breweries and authorized dealers, I try not to buy from individuals or companies that resell sake at high prices. There are still many sakes that are not available, but we are always looking for ways to purchase them.

Gin Neko 2025 January lot was opened. The gas is strong, the sweetness comes to the forefront, and the alu-ness, bitterness, and astringency are quite subdued. I wanted to enjoy the changes in flavor over a few days, but it was so easy to drink that the four-pack was quickly consumed 😋 It is delicious!

Despite my true desire to try more sake I've never had, I keep coming back to Nabeshima. The freshness of the sake's unadulterated, freshness enhances the flavor of the Tokujun even more 😋. Be careful not to drink too much.

Hi Gin Neko! I know what you mean 😁✨ I have a favorite sake that I just can't resist. I haven't tried Nabesama's special junmai yet, so I'd like to drink it someday 😋.

Gin Neko
Hi ma-ki-san! I have a special attachment to Nabesama because it was the sake that got me hooked on the Sake Swamp 😀 So I have a habit of impulsively buying it whenever I find it 😁 It's a shame that you haven't tried it yet. Please give it a try!

After a brief vacation, we are back in a hot as shit country 😓We quickly opened a bottle of the cool looking Kuroryu as the first bottle. The aroma is melon, and a rich sweetness spreads in the mouth. I thought for a moment that it was a little different from what I had imagined, but the spiciness came immediately and then it was gone. It is difficult to describe, but it was a sweet and delicious dry type of sake. It was so easy to drink that I almost finished the four-pack in 30 minutes. I realized later that it is 17 degrees Celsius 😅.

The aroma is mild banana, and the balance of sweet, sour, and bitter tastes is pleasant. It is not spectacular, but a sake to be savored for its robust rice flavor. It is also good as a heated sake 😋.

Sake brewed with Kami no Ho. It has a slight melon aroma, and when you drink it, you will taste a gentle sweetness followed by a sourness and a slight dryness at the end. Overall, the impression is light. This is my first time drinking Tamitsu, but it is delicious.

We opened a bottle of Dewazakura, which we received as a gift. On the first day, the ginjo aroma was strong, but after the second day, the aroma became milder and the flavor more rounded. I think it is a very beautiful sake with no cloying taste.
