I was curious about this Omachi from my favorite Hirotogawa. The aroma is more fruity than the usual Hirotogawa, but when you put it in your mouth, it is the Omachi. The sweetness that comes from the umami is full-fronted. The sweetness is silky, but combined with the mellowness of Hirotogawa, it is delicious. The aftertaste is clean and satisfying on its own. 8.4

I found Oumine at my favorite liquor store. I was excited to buy the expensive Oumine. The aroma was a little muscat, and I took a sip. The sweetness, flavor, and smooth impression without any corners are typical of Omine. The fresh juiciness of Daimine is lessened by the rich sweetness and flavor that is typical of Aizan. I am not sure if it is worth the price of over 2,400 yen, but it is a very tasty sake. It is a sake for those who are not accustomed to drinking sake. 8.8

Bought it for its beautiful green color. It is not a heavy tasting sake, but very easy to drink. It is easy to drink, but it is still a sake brewed from a traditional sake brewer's yeast. It has a complex and rich taste. All NIIDASHIZEN SHUSHU products emphasize the good points of the sake and remove the bad points. This one is especially rich and full-bodied. I like it very much! The taste is strong but fruity, the sweetness is strong but not sticky, and the aftertaste is deep and rich. Quite a favorite, delicious. 9.3

First time at Momoten Katsu, long time no see Tenbi. The stopper blew out just by removing the stopper💦. The aroma is peachy and pear-like. When poured, it has a great shwash. When you put it in your mouth, it goes from refreshingly shwashy to sweet and sour. Not in a bad way, but there is a freshness like biting into a fresh cheap grapefruit. I mean it's not heavy. It's less cloudy and creamy, more juicy and light, with a bitter aftertaste so it doesn't feel dull. Tenbi is well put together. The acidity is strong, so the balance of the sweetness is not tiring. I think it tastes even better because of the strong schwashiness, but I'm also curious to see what happens when the schwashiness is removed. 9

You can see it is thick just by pouring. It is quite cloudy. When you put it in your mouth, it tastes sweet and sour like an apple. The texture is sticky. It is sweet and sour, but the bitter acidity gives a sharp impression. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu, but thanks to the orikarami, you can feel the weight of the rice, so it is very satisfying. I can see why it has a good reputation. 8

This one is famous for its amazing grapefruit. It has a light cloudiness with a hint of corkage. Fresh, acidic, and sweet from the moment you put it in your mouth. There is a bitter aftertaste. It is a grapefruit, but the bitterness is less than expected, so it is easy to drink. It is fresh and light, but does not feel thin and is very drinkable. I have only had Takachiyo's dry sake, but this is by far the best. The balance is excellent, and it is very drinkable. It's a great hiragana Takachiyo. 9

The apple-like sweetness is a major pillar of the flavor, but it is moderate without being peculiar. The center of the sweetness has a light honey-like sweetness, and while it is silky and light, it is satisfying? Light but heavy? It has such a contradictory impression. There is an astringent taste on the back end that tightens up the whole taste, giving the impression of a beautiful sake that is smooth from entrance to exit. It is light and delicious, typical of spring sake. 8.3

This is my first Gazan style, both back and front. I chose something that is not too amateurish. I don't feel the fragrance because I have hay fever, but I do feel fruity. It has a fruity taste, but it's very light and sweet. When I took a sip, it was very light and silky with a little sweetness and a little spiciness at the back of my throat. It is very refreshing, but rather light. It is easy to drink, but it is not short, and just because this is a strain that is not to my taste does not mean it is not tasty. I might like to drink this fresh flavor when the temperature is warmer, though the acidity is low. 6.8

It is a bit pricey, but I was curious so I bought it. I have hay fever and sinusitis, so I don't really smell it, but it does have an apple-like flavor. The mouth feel is very soft. It has a slight, silky sweetness, which gives the impression of being dry, but the sweetness continues until after swallowing. The volume is small, and it is what one would call a beautiful sake. It is delicious, but the price seems high. 7.2

Takeyoshi's dry sake. I had drunk it at a restaurant before, but I drank it again in one cup at home. The yellowish color is a mellow flavor with a sense of maturity. The aroma is a bit smoky, and it wafts into the nose. The moment it rolls on the tongue, you can taste the umami, and it spreads through the mouth, but when you swallow it, it seeps in with a crisp, dry taste. However, it is not so sharp and clean. You can feel the lingering umami. It is a good choice for a hearty mealtime sake. 7.5

Ama ama, like a cold chrysanthemum, but with less total sweetness. It is not a bad thing, but the sweetness is a little sticky. After that, there is the umami (flavor) and astringency that is typical of Aizan. As I do not like too much sweetness, it is easy to drink because of its restrained sweetness and astringency for a Kangiku. It has a light flavor for Aizan, but it is delicious in its own way. Excellent as an aperitif, but I wonder what would be best to pair it with a meal. 7.4

I found a liquor I had never seen before from Raifuku that I like quite a bit, even if it is fruity. It's a jackpot purchase. It's silky but sweet with a strong sweetness and little clutter. It doesn't have a sense of weight, but it doesn't feel thin. The aroma is gorgeous, just like the impression of Raifuku, and it has a good balance of umami and flavor. I paired it with a canned oyster with lemon, but it didn't go well with it! It's rare that they don't go well together, I was surprised. 7.3

Muscat-like aroma. Fresh, juicy, sweet flavor as if biting into a pear. While there is a slight astringency in the aftertaste, the impression remains refreshing. The umami feeling of Hirotogawa is lessened by the fact that it is a nama-shu, but the level of deliciousness remains the same. The freshness is stronger, so it has less Hirotogawa flavor, but it is still delicious. It is a modern sake like modern sake, but it has a sweetness that is not sticky, so it is easy to drink. 8.6

This is a sake that I had been curious about for a long time, but it was a bit expensive and I hadn't had a chance to drink it. The aroma is mellow and muscat-like, typical of Hououmida. Surprised when I put it in my mouth! It starts with a molasses-like sweetness and a soft but sharp-edged impression with nothing unnecessary removed. While the sweetness spreads to the aftertaste, the astringency is gradually felt, giving a refreshing impression without lingering. Yes, it has been a while since I drank an overpriced sake that I was satisfied with. It is wonderful. 9

First time chivalry. Before I bought it, I only knew it was a newspaper liquor. The aroma is apple-like. The moment you put it in your mouth, you get a gulp of umami! This is the top level of umami among all the sake I have ever had. At the same time as the umami, you feel sweet and sour, and the bitterness seeps into the back of your throat. This is delicious. I can't really explain it, but even though it's a voluminous sake, it doesn't feel heavy and is easy to drink. It is not too sweet among the umami bombs, but it has a good balance of sourness. I would like to try other Gikyo. 8.9

A snowman that I put to bed. This is the second one this season. It seems to have a slight yellow tinge. The opening schwash and pouring schwash seems to be a little weaker, but the schwash is stronger in the mouth. The sweetness settles down and the sizzling flavor spreads, and I think it has a milky but slightly more graininess. It's delicious. I'm looking forward to next season. 8.5

I bought this at the airport during a trip to Matsuyama. I bought it because I had an extra National Travel Discount coupon. First, I sipped it cold. The acidity was strong and dry, and I thought it would be delicious warmed. First, I boiled it in hot water for a little bit to human skin temperature, and yes, the acidity was stronger, and the flavor blossomed. If you raise the temperature a little more, the acidity and umami will be well balanced. Yes, it is better to warm it up. 7

I was able to buy Miyazumi nigori, which is reputed to be delicious, for the first time. When I opened the bottle, the lid blew off just by unscrewing the stopper. It was so shwashy that it almost overflowed, so I hurriedly tightened the lid and waited for it to settle down. When I poured it, I could see more of the great schwash. Without mixing the inside of the bottle, I drank the first sip with a light mixture of the first sips. The cloudy color is slightly white, and the aroma is like that of rum. When you put it in your mouth, it has a strong, fresh, juicy, sweet, but not sticky and refreshing taste. The aftertaste is long and lingers in the back of the throat. It's an adult's Ramune. Delicious. 9

I bought it because I thought it looked delicious in terms of image, although it was my first time to buy a clear Kirizukuba, Hatsu Shibori. It was not too thick even when mixed with Nigori-nagori, and was light nigori as shown on the label. It is very fresh and smooth, but has a strong sweetness. The rim of the bottle is sticky. The creaminess that is typical of nigori sake is not so great, but I think that is what makes it so mild. The aftertaste is astringent and refreshing, so it goes down smoothly. 7.9
