Saw Amarokku, an all Amagasaki location movie during GW! It's been about 3 weeks since the movie was released, but it was packed 😳I guess there will be repeaters 🤔. I get excited when I see places I've been to or places I know. After watching the movie, I found this place at Hanshin Department Store in the same commercial facility. I had a hard time deciding between the Ryuriki Shinryu Nishiki Nama Sake and this one, but I bought this one! The rice is Dewanosato. It is refreshing but sweet. It has a strong sense of sake yeast, though it is a little stronger than other Hatsusonjyu I've tasted. I also feel a little lactic acidity. I think I prefer it to the Honkin that I just had 🤔. I can't go wrong with Hatsusun.

Good morning, bouken 😃. I'm curious about Hatsuson, I haven't had it yet! Amarokku, I was wondering about the local response, but I see it's quite loved by the locals. Nun love 🫶.

Good morning bouken 😁. I'm curious about the first grandson, but I've never had it 😰. I've never had any 😋. I'm testing my iPhone 😰.

Hi Aladdin 😃 I have the impression that this brewery seems to be a wholesaler-distributor main brewery, so it doesn't line up in famous local sake stores very often 🤔. I'm glad to know that the photos were taken in Amagasaki and not in some other place. I'm glad to know that the photos were taken in Amagasaki and not in some other place 🤔.

Hi Ao 😃 I think Hatsuson was sometimes stocked at Nomura Ryu Sake Shop 🤔 I've never been there 🤣. They all taste similar but sweet and delicious 😋.

I was completely caught off guard. Even though the bottle was labeled to be opened with caution, I made the mistake of spilling about 1 cup 😭.

I tasted it at the Kobe Hankyu event with Nemuchi-san and pyonpyon-san, and was most impressed with Sakura Masamune. At room temperature. The aroma is classic. The aroma is classic and the mouthfeel is soft and gentle. I guess it is very refreshing when chilled. It is a sake to drink while eating. Not in a negative way, but the top aroma and taste is like that of an alcoholic honjozo or regular sake. I thought it was a bit sweeter when I tasted it 🤔. I thought I could buy it anywhere, but surprisingly, I couldn't find any bottles of it at ●Maya, and only department stores carry 4-gou 💦. When I drank it again, it had a soft sweetness.

I found it when I dropped by Amagasaki Hanshin on my way home from watching John Wick at MOVIX in Kuse Mall. The movie is now complete, but it was the worst in the series 🙄. I searched for it and found Sakeran-san and Hirupeko-san drinking! I thought it was Shinnosuke's 😅. Tart and dark sweet taste. It has an atmosphere like a noble sake or dessert wine. I think it is one of the most delicious sake made from Koshihikari. It is a little sweet and sour. It is a low alcohol type sake, but I thought it was quite drinkable.
Japanese>English

Hello bouken ☀. The label on the rice bag 😆 I would buy the jackets 🎶. If Koshihikari can taste that good, then it's cosy and good 😊👍.

ひるぺこ
Hello, bouken-san. I was wondering why I suddenly got a favorable impression of Takarazan, which I drank a long time ago. I was wondering why. I had forgotten that I used to drink it, so I am glad I remembered it this time 😊.
Japanese>English
bouken
Hi Pon 😃 Is it difficult to make good sake that not many breweries use it? Takarazan is delicious, but there were some breweries that tasted like that 😅. I've seen some breweries that tasted like that 😅.
Japanese>English

I wonder if there are a certain number of people who think that sake made from Koshihikari rice is a bad idea.... I wonder if there are a certain number of people who think that sake made from Koshihikari rice is just a waste of time and money. I'm just guessing. Both of these are just my guesses.

Hi Hirupeko 😃 I search for sakekwa when I have never seen it before or when I don't have much information about sakekwa 😁I sometimes like old posts and remember them 😊.

I see, it's not as established yet, and not recognized by many 🙄 I remember thinking it was a good deal for the same price as Jungin Yamadanishiki, even though it's an Asakaya Mizukagami Daigin 😁.

I hope I can make a lot of good ones and be recognized! Thank you for your valuable input 😊🙏.

In Sake no Wa, it's Sakai Izumi Shuzo, but they changed the company name, so it's now Rikyuzo. Is it the only brewery in Osaka that uses Aizan? It seems to be. According to the official website, the koji rice is Yamadanishiki and the Kake rice is Aizan, but it's not 100% Aizan, but the label says Aizan in big letters, so it's OK, right? Sennori Kyu (a little fast talking) pure silver Aiyama🎵. Sennori Kyu (speak a little fast) Yamato Aiyaama🎵 Clean and fresh feeling. Not fruity sweetness but syrupy sweetness. There is a trace of unique aroma. It doesn't seem to have much of an Aizan feel to it. Is it because Yamada Nishiki is also used? There is a slight fizzy feeling. There was a 100% Aizan unfiltered unpasteurized sake and a nigori sake here, but I missed the timing and couldn't buy them, so I bought this one, but... I may not post for another week or so, but I'll keep pushing the ♥ 😁.

Hi tkmt😄. It's just too bad about this one, but Kinjaku is really meh! I especially recommend the Yamahai Junmai Ginjo😊.

Hi bouken-san, 🐣 I don't know why I've never seen any sake from Osaka (I filled in the map with Akishika), so I'm grateful to see you in the review 😊 bouken-san, good luck 🤗

Good evening. ♪ I chanted somewhat quickly. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. But the label is beautiful, so if I find it, I'll buy it😁.

Mariponnu-san, good evening! Akishika is famous but Osaka doesn't have a good image for sake 😅Other breweries like Katano Sakura and Amano Sake are good. I'm sure you'll be able to find something to suit your needs.

I'll post one more on Thursday and then I'll go silent for a while 😐.

Ane-san, good evening 🌃 I'm sure you're familiar with it, since you've used it to make many different kinds of sake... I'm sure you're familiar with it, but I've had some good ones in the past that weren't made with Aizan, so I'm not sure if I got the wrong one.

I revised the text a little because I wrote it in the rag. The impression is better than the first time I saw it, but the lack of love mountain feeling and the unique unpleasant smell are still the same. Is this scent off-flavor?

I also felt a little juicy sweetness like apricot around the second half.

To describe it in a very positive way, it tastes like Omine. Muscat-like.
