This is the first time I have ever smelled flowers.
It seems that the Hana-no-Ka brand is now limited to the prefecture, but I was able to buy it.
It is Junmai Daiginjo, but the price is cheap. It has a delicious aroma and flavor.
I am looking forward to the sansho I bought with it.
It is characterized by its freshness and clear mouthfeel, and its citrus fruit-like acidity that dashingly spreads on the tongue and tightens up the taste.
A five-grain version of the Omine Shuzo's iconic rice logo was created as a test brew series, with all specifications such as raw material rice, rice polishing ratio, and sake level undisclosed, in the hopes that customers will enjoy this bottle without preconceived notions.
Juicy flavor reminiscent of fresh black apples. The roasted hazelnut aroma is very appetizing. The ginjo aroma is kept low to marry with delicate food.
Hachikaisan's "Awashu".
It is a second fermentation sake in the bottle.
It is a awash sake, so it is very effervescent. I carefully opened the cork, but it hit the ceiling.
I wanted to take a sip of the 350 ml bottle, but I couldn't put the cork back (ToT).
I had no choice but to empty the entire bottle.
It tastes dry and has a low sweetness, but the carbonation is harsh.
It is an active nigori of Kameizumi cel24. This is the first time. I'm sure I couldn't find it even if I looked for it in many places. Only two stores in my hometown, Kochi, carry it. It is super limited.
But this nigori and the activeness is unbelievable! Just a little rinsing of the cap and the blow up and mixing in the bottle is amazing. Looks and tastes like a creamy version of the usual Kameizumi. It was thorny on the first day of opening the bottle, but after three days it's milder and easier to drink. It is delicious.
This is a set of Jikin from a liquor store in Mie.
Written on this bottle is the words "Beware of explosion when opening the bottle.
Is Hakusake doburoku? Rice grains are mussels.
It's so shwashy!
It is a kotatsu cat of Hagi no Tsuru.
The aroma is gorgeous and nice. It has a light sweetness in the mouth and is easy to drink without bitterness.
Rice used: Miyamanishiki
Polishing ratio ... 50%.

This is "WAKAZE / THE CLASSIC", a French sake. I was curious to buy it because I have seen it so often recently.
French rice, French water, French wine yeast, all made in France and made by a Japanese.
It is already a wine when you put it in your mouth. It has a light sweetness, acidity, and a slight bitterness.
However, it has a distinctive taste. And I don't know how to open the bottle. Maybe it's because I don't drink wine.
The label on the lid said to be careful opening the bottle. Sure enough, the lid hit the ceiling after the pushto (^_^;)
The first thing I tasted was a light acidity. There is a light sweetness, but soon there is a slight bitterness. It's like a slightly carbonated cider. The rice is polished to 30%, so you can't taste any miscellaneous flavors. It's delicious (^-^)/.
I bought two bottles of this two years ago and let them sit. The aroma is fruity, and the sting of two years ago has mellowed out. It's getting tastier.
The first one I found was Junmai Ginjo, and I was surprised at how good it was. I wondered why it wasn't on the top of the list at saketimes.
This time, it was the Junmai Daiginjo from Jyosu Mori. A little too much time has passed. 2021.02
It's a little more aged than refreshing. It's a bit sweet and a bit dark. I'll have to buy another bottle and drink it soon to compare.
The label said to drink it by the end of September, but I kept it in the fridge and thought it would be fine. When I opened it, what was it? It smells like a freshly dried Kappa! And in my mouth? No good! I can't drink it. I'm sorry.
