Kure河童特別純米生酒

My favorite Kurei summer sake was there, so I reflexively bought it. The aroma is like green apple and grapefruit. One sip. Yes, it is thick and thick, which you cannot imagine from the aroma. The umami flavor is abundant and the acidity is juicy. It is quite heavy, but the acidity is strong, so it is relatively refreshing. The aftertaste is not crisp, but rather dry, with the umami spreading out in a jolt. It does not have the freshness of nama-shu, but it does not feel heavy, which is typical of nama-shu. It is heavy for a summer sake, so it is not my favorite, but it is definitely my favorite strain. 8.1

Hachinohe Sake Brewery's Summer Doburokku, the mainstay of the summer season. This sake was the best summer sake we drank last year, and was also one of the top summer sake we drank during the year! When we opened the bottle, it was shrieking and shuffling! It was a bit too much, but not to the point of overflowing. It almost overflowed when I poured it. Take a sip. The moment I put it in my mouth, it was already shuwa shuwa shuwa shuwa! It's completely a calpis sour! The sweet and sour taste spreads in the mouth after the sizzle, and the creaminess of the muddiness envelops you afterward. I personally think it rivals Sengoku's Snowman and Hirotogawa Junmai in terms of nigorizumi. 9.4

It's been a while since I've bought a jacket, and it's been hot, so I chose something cool. And the reason was that it was smooth and dry. Almost no aroma. As soon as you put it in your mouth, you immediately taste the sweetness of the rice, not amateurish because of its low whiteness, but dry and dry right away. The acidity in the aftertaste is refreshing and perfect for this hot season. It is delicious. 8.3

I bought it again this year, the third year in a row. Grapefruit from the aroma, I'll take it. The acidity is immediately greefruity, the sweetness is mild and overshadowed by the acidity, but wraps around the whole thing. It is even lighter than last year. Rather thin. The aftertaste is grefrouge-like bitterness and a little bit of umami that shows its face. This bitterness is exquisite. But it's a bit more restrained than last year, which I guess is a trend. It will be more delicious when the temperature is a little warmer. 7.3

It's been a long time since I've had Sentori. I like Sentori more classic than modern. This is my first time to try Omachi. It has a strong acidity that is typical of Sentori. It has a mild impression though it has a strong umami like Oumachi. It is dry with a touch of umami and sweetness. Then there is more umami. The umami is strong, but it also has a lightness that is typical of a 14% sake, which makes it seem a little thin. The silhouette is a little vague. It is delicious, but not my favorite. 7

This is a rare repeat of Kurei's Tokujun, which I enjoyed drinking before. The aroma is subdued, with a hint of acidity. When you take a sip, you can taste the umami. However, the umami of the rice is moderate, so it is not harsh. Later, the sweetness of the rice overlaps with the acidity, and the umami overlaps with the sweetness of the rice, creating happiness on the tongue. It is not as sharp as it should be, but it is crisp and not tiring to drink. Kurei is delicious, and I like it just as much as Kitajima. 8.6

I like Koei Chrysanthemum, which I have not had for a long time, because of its strong acidity. I can tell from the aroma that it is going to be very sour. When I put it in my mouth, I immediately feel the sweet and sour, and from there, awesome orange! It's a little more like a watery, cheap orange than a rich tangerine. I guess this can't be helped because of the low alcohol volume. And the refreshment is stronger because of that. The aftertaste is astringent like grapefruit, but very weak. Of course it has a freshness because it is a nama-shu, but the lighter it is as you drink it, the more you are concerned about its lightness. I think it's great that it's so fresh and light, but it's a little different from my favorite strain. But I bought it because I could imagine that, so there is no problem. I think it will taste even better when the temperature is higher. 7.9

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
