Souvenirs from Iwate.
I don't (can't) buy them myself, so they were given to me.
I appreciate it.
A strong ginjo aroma.
Rich rice sweetness and acidity.
The sweetness is refreshing and not too strong.
Goes well with sweet food.

It was given to me as a souvenir from Miyagi.
The flavor of the rice, the acidity, and the final cleanliness.
I think there is no Japanese food that does not go well with this.
I have been drinking a lot of deliciously sweet and juicy sake recently, so I was able to reconfirm that I like this kind of classic flavor as well.

Purchased at a nearby mass merchandiser at a reasonable price.
It is light and refreshing with little acidity, but you can also taste the flavor of the rice. Easy to match with meals.
Great value for money.

Last time it was a lion. This time it was a bear.
To be honest, I couldn't taste the difference in taste, but the sake rice is different.
It has a darker flavor that goes well with meat.
I thought it would go well with mayonnaise or sauce,
I paired it with takoyaki (octopus dumplings) and it was very good.

Nito純米 萬歳七十 火
いとか
It has a good balance of umami and acidity.
At first sip, I thought it had a strong flavor, but it was not dull and I never got tired of drinking it.
It can be served with food or as a stand-alone drink.
I wonder what kind of snacks would go well with it.
I drank it all before I could find something.
This is delicious. I will buy it again.

いとか
Refreshing and mild on the palate.
It has a gentle sweetness from the rice and an acidity that seems to accompany it.
As you hold it in your mouth, the umami slowly spreads in a complex way, and at the end, you feel a slight astringency.
It was a sake that broadened my concept of sake.
It is delicious!

Rich and voluptuous flavor, sweetness and acidity.
It is very drinkable.
The impression is that it is a beautiful sake, perhaps because it has no astringency.

Fruity aroma.
Sweet and sour taste is exquisite.
Since it is an undiluted sake, it is also good on the rocks.

I told them I wanted a sake with a lot of umami and acidity, and bought it on the recommendation of a liquor store I was familiar with.
Indeed, it has a strong umami of rice and enough acidity from the Yamahai process.
The final sharpness was satisfying.
I enjoyed the changes from cold sake to room temperature by warming it by hand.
Too bad it ran out before I could warm it up.
I might buy it again in the winter.

I will buy it again.

It was love at first sight with the Chosan label.
Despite its sweet aroma, it has a light and refreshing mouthfeel. The harmony of acidity, sweetness, and astringency is wonderful, and it has a long finish.
It does not have a strong individuality, but the balance of flavors is unique.
I liked it. I will buy it again.

Nice to meet you, Itoka!
I'm a sake drinker living near your brewery 🙇♂️
Chosan has been a character for a long time, not sure why you are pushing it now, but the Chosan series is indeed catchy and all 👍!
Keep up the good work 😊.

Hi Jurian.
I looked up the character and found that he is from the Showa era.
I see that there are other Chosan series.
If I find one, I would like to buy it.
Thanks for your comment.

Although it is labeled as dry, it is not crisp and dry.
It has a good balance of umami and acidity.
It is refreshing, but not light.
It finishes with a beautiful acidity, but it disappears from the mouth very naturally.
It is not dry, but it is not dry at all.
It is interesting that after drinking it, one has the impression that it was dry.

Umami and acidity first.
Some sweetness follows.
The umami takes the lead, but it finishes crisp and clean.
Overall, the sake is mild and perfectly matches the impression on the label.
Cheap for such a good taste.
I look forward to drinking it again next year.

Slightly effervescent.
The sweet aroma is followed by the soft sweetness of rice.
But then, the alcohol hits you hard.

Transparent acidity.
Clear sweetness.
The umami of rice also comes later.
The alcohol taste that goes through the nose is pleasant because it is a pure sake.
It has a good sharpness.

The highest grade of elegant sweetness with no cloying taste.
Calm acidity and moist, deep sweetness.
The wine was very good, with a nice balance and a nice sweetness.
I drank a little at a time over the course of a week and enjoyed it without losing its balance by the end.
It is a little over my budget, but I am glad I bought it.
Thank you for the treat.
