I intend to drink more summer sake this year than last year
Cold sake
It has a lively attack and acidity that is typical of nama sake.
Slightly voluptuous, but the aftertaste is quite sharp.
Went well with sashimi of tuna.
Because of its strong acidity, it would go well with summer dishes with stamina such as vegetable curry or stir-fried pork and eggplant.

I think a Sake YouTuber once said this is the one to pair with Chinese food...

First purchase of the popular Hirotogawa Nigori finally 🥳.
Automatic stirring starts 💦 when you open the cork.
Like the Fukkai Nigori, it has a melon-like aroma with a hint of sweetness.
Slightly sweet aroma with a hint of melon.
Great balance of silky sweetness and juicy flavor in the mouth ✨✨.
Almost alcohol free 👌Easy to drink
It's definitely a dangerously tasty drink 🤭🤭🤭.
Compared to Fukkai Nigori 🤭🤭.
Both are delicious 🤤, but Hirotogawa leans more towards sweetness.
Great to drink with kamaboko and boiled fish 🥰.
Reminds me of a fun night in Nagasaki!
Purchased at liquor stores. Rarity is higher in some areas.
At room temperature.
The aroma is subdued.
It has a subdued taste, similar to the Junmai-shu of Shichibonspear that I drank before, probably because it uses the sake rice Tamaei. This one may have a little more acidity.
The sake level is over +10 degrees, but my personal impression is that it is not that dry.
When heated up, the rice flavor gradually spreads to the palate.
Ideal as a food sake.
Suitable for intermediate to advanced drinkers.
Purchased at a liquor store.
I bought it and kept it because it happened to be on sale last week. Extremely rare.
Cold sake.
Aroma is a mixture of citrus freshness and green apple bitters.
Slightly carbonated and moderately sweet. Dry but with a slight bitterness from the mid-palate. The aftertaste is normal.
If you like Kaze no Mori, you will be hooked.
We had it with chicken. It seems to go well with somewhat strong dishes.
Recommended for sake beginners.
Purchased at a liquor store.
Rare because it is not often seen even in Kansai.
At room temperature.
It was supposed to be thick and rich, but in fact it tasted creamy and easy to drink.
It is classified as super dry with a sake degree of 14 degrees, but I personally don't find it to be that dry.
However, it has a very good balance of sharpness and gentle aftertaste after swallowing. It is even better when heated.
Recommended for intermediate level sake drinkers.

I was worried about the days, but the label was cute and I bought it.

Cold sake.
Slightly pear-like aroma.
Slightly slightly carbonated. Although modern, the freshness and juiciness are not too strong, and it is easy to drink with a good throat action.
I have the impression that most Ishikawa sake is more classic, but I felt a little heaviness in this one as well.
The aftertaste is normal.

Slightly floral yet calm taste.
Slightly light, with a very good balance of sweetness, umami and weight. No astringency.
Slightly acidic aftertaste. The aftertaste is normal.
Personally, I can compare it to a person who does not stand out that much in a class or group, but is an indispensable part of it. It is like Luigi. While there are many popular brands of sake in Miyagi, such as Hakurakusei, Miyakanbai, and Hitakami, this sake is rather rare. However, it is very good as a food sake and gives the impression of being Miyagi's eternal second best.

The same slightly fruity aroma as the first sip, soft rice flavor and sweetness spreads with a gentle acidity and a slight bitterness, and it finishes quickly while retaining the rice flavor.
It is mild and fresh, well-balanced, and goes well with meals, but is also delicious on its own.
It goes well with meat udon noodles, kamaei tempura, and rice with clams.

Hi Masaaki Sapporo!
I see that your wife is also from Nagasaki city. ❗️
I'm from Nagasaki and I remember my son in Yagami commuting to school using GENkawa 💡.
