Timeline
ことりSake seems to be used as part of the brewing water, and it has an extremely sweet taste reminiscent of koji amazake.
It was too sweet to continue drinking as is, so we started drinking it on the rocks or with carbonated water.
The koji aroma, softly sweet and sour, similar to the green plum of plum wine, and
I also feel a hint of bitterness😌.
We enjoyed it with spicy curry 😋. ことりAt the end of May, I had captured it early with the members of the Tochigi Prefectural People's Association, but I refrained from drinking it when it became too hot to handle 🤗.
I drank it cold and it was ⁈Supper😣💦.
I was surprised at how sour it was because I was looking for something as sweet and sour as honey🍯lemon🍋❗️ On the contrary, if it's this sour, I think I can expect it to relieve fatigue 😉Nante 🤭I liked it when the temperature was cooler and it was sweeter😚. アルスThanks for your help, Kotori-san. Have you tried it on the rocks if you feel it has a strong sour taste? It's delicious! ことりHi Ars 🐥.
I've already drunk it 🧊 but it looks good on the rocks too! I'll try it next time 😉 I believe in the citric acid cycle, so I was drinking this sourness to help my body 🤣. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Kotori 😃.
If it wasn't for the Prefectural Association Line we would have gone through this year 😅I appreciate your information 🤗Drinking and recovering from fatigue! Hot summer ☀️ would like to go in the afternoon 😋. ことりGood evening, Jay and Nobby 🐥.
I appreciate the exchange of information on the Kenmin-kai LINE 😉 Even though it is in the northern Kanto region, Utsunomiya is still as hot as a basin, and it's tough 🥵🥵Sweet and sour and nigori types are expected to have ingredients that your body can enjoy 🤭. ことりThe sake that was pre-released at "CRAFT SAKE WEEK 2024" is finally released🤗I was holding off on drinking it on a hot 〰︎ day 🤭.
The sake was brewed with Nikko's Goshinsui (divine water) and delivered as freshly squeezed as possible..........................
It is reasonably priced for a Junmai Daiginjo and the label is cute 😘The first glass on the first day of opening is a strong gassy sensation that hits you right in the throat and makes you gasp in the mouth. The second and third glasses I poured, the bubbles subsided to the level of a Fanta.
Soft pineapple-like ginjo aroma? I also detected a hint of melon and muscat. It is not too sweet, and it was so delicious that I wanted to drink it in gulps 😚. コタローGood evening, Mr. Kotori🌙
I've seen this one a lot lately, so I'm curious about it 😋.
I have an image of Houou Mita as sweet, but it seems to be easy to drink this time of year because of its low sweetness 😊. アルスThanks for your help, Kotori.
I got this one myself. The bubbles look amazing, I'm looking forward to it. lol ことりGood evening, Kotaro-san 🐥.
Compared to the Hououmida wine cellar, which is sparkling but has a silky gasiness... I was surprised by the gasiness on the first day, which was so lively that I could enjoy it through my throat 😆 On the third day, the remaining 1 gou was a little bit sweet and tasty 🥰. ことりArs 🚃Thanks for your time 🐥.
The first day you open the bottle, you need to tilt the glass and pour gently or it will be a bit foamy 😆 It was a new sensation to have this much bubbles without any indication of secondary fermentation in the bottle 🤭Please drink it as soon as possible! T.KISOGood morning, Kotori-san: ☀️
Is this label Phoenix? It's so cute 💕︎ I didn't know there was such a thing!
I'd like to try it because I like fizzier than dry 😋. ことりHello T.KISO 🐥.
Hand-painted phoenix with colored stones (๑˃˃˃)Kawaii!
The coolness and awa- awa-ness of the sake hides its gorgeous slightly sweet taste 😅The more the bubbles settle down, the more muscat-like sweetness and deliciousness it has become 😚. ことりAt room temperature.
The ginjo aroma has a slight apple, apricot, and hay aroma. It has a ginjo aroma with a hint of apple, apricot, and hay, and goes down the throat easily with a soft mouthfeel. It has a slight sweetness and bitterness, a light, clear acidity, followed by umami and full-bodied flavor.
It has a gentle taste with a subdued aroma, somewhere between modern and classic.
A light and refreshing aftertaste due to the effect of the alsobe and acidity. The calm taste that accompanies food gently makes you feel relaxed 😌. ことりFrom the supernatant...a slight white grape or green apple type fresh sweet and sourness and umami~. Slightly alu feel.
Sparkling and firmly pithy 🫧.
The next day...even with the oli mixed in, the bitterness is not so great, and the alu-ness felt the first day blends in nicely, becoming thick, milky, sweet and tasty ↪SFAE7↩. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Kotori 😃.
Oh..................! Finally 🤗J&N100CI commemorative sake ‼️ I only remember that it's delicious 😅It looks like my memory was right 😁. ことりGood morning, Jay & Nobby 🐥Yes ❗️J&N's 100CI anniversary sake 🤗My hometown is near Tsuji-san and I feel safe to buy it anytime 😅I'm glad I could enjoy the difference in taste between the first and second half 😚 Yes ❗️ delicious ❗️🤣 Senkinオーガニック・ナチュール X 2024 sparkling生酛原酒生酒無濾過発泡 ことりThe vividness of the royal 🟦 blue is stunning. It's Sentori! The logo is also really cool ❗️
The culmination of old and new manufacturing....
Be careful when opening the bottle or it will spew 💥.
The aroma is subdued, but there are faint hints of banana? Pear aroma? It has a light gassy feeling and goes down smoothly, but it is dry! But it also has a hint of strawberry? But it is sweet and sour with a hint of strawberry.
There is also a slight grain and rice bran flavor, like that found in Nigori. The low polish gives it a rice flavor...with a lingering bitterness that gives it a greeful feeling.
I like the casual enjoyment of bubbly sake. ことりYour first Narumi (Narumi) CWS, welcome with a nice label🤗.
It has a refreshing aroma reminiscent of green apple, muscatel, and lychee. It has a gentle lactic acidity, a silky, slightly cloudy gasiness, a slight peachy sweetness, and a subtle salty and umami flavor.
The fruity astringency and acidity, with a clean and crisp aftertaste, made a good impression on us. まつちよHello Kotori🐣.
I've never had this Narumi, but it seems that many of the sakes here have a lactic acidic sourness to them, which I'm personally interested in. ymdazHi Kotori 😃
I thought it was a nice label and I see it's CWS.
It looks like the type of taste you like so I would like to drink it 😊. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Kotori 😃.
Congratulations on your first Narumi 🎉㊗️
Nigori in evening calm 😌I see what you mean, it's a label like that 😊Great review that makes me want to drink it as always 😋. ことりGood evening, Mr. Matsuchiyo 🐥I was curious to know that Mr. Yuzuru Kikuchi, who has worked on popular brands such as "Zanko Horai", "Suifu Boast", and "Yuto", will be transferred to the brewery from 2020 and will be the chief brewer. I was curious to know that Mr. Kikuchi will be transferred to the new company and will be the toji (master brewer) of the new brand. ことりGood evening, ymdaz-san 🐥I found this bottle from September last year in the refrigerator of a sake store I visited the other day.
I heard that the current Tidal Wave has an acidity of 4.5. I want to drink the aggressive one 🤭. ことりJay & Nobby, good evening 🐥I was impressed with the Aizu Nakasyo light nigori recommended by Nobby, and I sought it out because of that image 🤗It tastes like a more casual version of Senkyoku... 🤭It is easy to drink. ことりMarch 15. As it is a day of great luck, which comes only a few days a year, I went to visit my local Omae Ebisu Shrine ⛩️
The sky was clear and blue, the smell of plum blossoms was in the air, and I felt refreshed. I prayed for peace and gratitude.
Third picture: Ebisu-sama, about 20 meters high
The 4th picture, a motorcycle ema, is very rare 🙄.
We stopped at a sake store on our way back home🤗.
The aroma is mild. It has a very slight graininess, a slightly sweet and bitter cocoa taste, umami, and a firm acidity, and after swallowing it, you feel your throat get very hot. Perhaps it is the effect of the acidity, but the aftertaste is so refreshing that you do not feel the al 18 degrees. まつちよGood evening Kotori-san 🐣.
I see you bought a bottle of Yamahai 😊and a bottle at that!
Did you drink it at room temperature?
It's quite good when it's warmed up, the acidity comes out stronger.
Ebisu-san 😂 ことりGood morning, Matsuchiyo-san 🐣Piyo⁈Cute〜😊I can't go there often and I want to enjoy the change, so I thought I'll just have one square 🤭On the warmer ♨️ I could taste the sweet and sour umami taste that has been increased and the bottom taste has been raised 😚. マナチーGood morning, Kotori-san ☀☀☀ This shrine here is famous for motorcyclists... I think I'll go to write an ema next time too 🏍️ ことりGood morning, Manachie 😊Please stop by for motorcycle ema writing 😆There is a fee to enter the Ebisu-sama and make a wish 😆 You can ring the golden bell 😆 The mysterious hole-in-the-wall sake store is also close to Tsuji-san. 🏍️ ことりMild on the tongue, very slightly chili. Light grain aroma, apricot-like with a sense of maturity? It has a sweet and savory taste.
It has a slightly rich and calm taste....
The aftertaste is slightly bitter and acidic.
Hmm? The more the day goes by, the more bitter cocoa taste appears. ことりThe low-polished grain aroma is a little bit annoying, but the taste is calm and mature 🤔.
I had it at room temperature, but I think it is best served warm.
It has a mild taste due to its three-year aging. The richness and umami spread slowly, and the taste reminds me of an old house.... The sweet and sour taste follows, and it slowly fades away. It has a slightly dry aftertaste. ことりInspired by Hirupeko's review of Sanko Tenshi... I welcomed it because I wanted to taste "spicy" 🤗.
It has a Shaoxing wine-like flavor, with a savory aged aroma like miso barrels, and a sweet but spicy flavor reminiscent of brown sugar and buckwheat honey... I thought, "This is it! ⁉︎. The acidity comes on strong, and you can feel the spread of the flavor.
If I were to describe it in terms of genre, I would say that it is a strong and peculiar type.
It has a robust flavor, but it is not sticky and has a refreshing aftertaste.
I enjoyed it with some jumbo dumplings (🥟) I bought at a souvenir store in the station building on my way home from a recent sake and wine event.
Warmed up and cooled down...a hint of bitter chocolate appeared! まつちよHi Kotori 🍶.
I haven't opened it yet, but I bought one the other day from the same year.
I took a picture of it, but I saw the same thing on the Kakinoki's tag.
By the way, did you drink it chilled? ことりHi Matsuchiyo 😊I am becoming fascinated by the different taste from modern sake. Everything was kept in the fridge at the distributor, so I put it in the fridge once I got back. I had it cold to room temperature. I'm looking forward to heating it up 🤭kicky📸 lol ひるぺこGood evening, Kotori-san. I'm glad to see another Sanko Tenpyo following in the footsteps of Matsuchiyo 😻I personally like aged sake from Omachi. It tastes even better if you let it sit for about a month after you uncork it and drink it slowly 😋. ことりHi Hirupeko, good evening 😊I want to taste Tororincho too 😚The note on the back of the tag says to strain if you are worried about floating matter/sediment 😅When I was at Tsuchida99, there was a fuzzy sediment...I thought it was marimo 😂. ことりOrganic Naturals W 2023 kijoshu
It is a noble sake, so it is sweet, but not too thick, and has a nice fine, silky gasiness. The mild lactic acidity and the fresh taste of apricot jam and citrus honey are enchanting (**).

Love Tochigi 🥰.

...expressing sweetness and bitterness in a clean taste, it was inspired by a honey lemon pickled with its peel...".
There is no gasiness, and the taste is whey-like with a strong lactic acidity. It was so easy to drink that you could not feel the alcohol.

Hi there!
I also drank it the other day and it was exactly as you described. ことりHi Kozou 😃I agree with what you said about the pleasant acidity that is not suppai 😊The mild throatiness of the 14% alu made me drink more than ever 😋and the chicken skin dumplings 👍🏻 ベータアラニンI had my first Stag Beetle yesterday and it was delicious! I didn't expect it to come out! ことりHi Beta Alanine 😃I was so excited to see the wonderful and varied selection of items that everyone calls the master of the Kurata store the teacher 😃. ベータアラニンIt's fun to share the same interests, isn't it? ことりWe selected this Junmai Daiginjo from the refrigerator to go with scallops and tuna sashimi, and it was the only one in the tank that was made using Aomori yeast "Jyo" as the raw material rice.
The label design gives it a classical image...but there is no gasiness.
The top aroma is a gorgeous ginjo aroma like sweet melon and pear, and the aroma reminds of a deep forest behind the sweet fruitiness and the full flavor. Is it sweet? The citrus-like acidity is in harmony with the clean aftertaste.
Rice polishing ratio : 50
Alcohol content : 17%. ことりGood evening, chika-san - you drink a lot of Aomori sake. ☺️ I bought this one around spring at Sekiguchi Honten in Moka City, Tochigi Prefecture. I like it because it is a hole-in-the-wall kind of sake store. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Kotori 😃.
I think you drank a different Ajigasawa before 🤔we have never had it, but is it your favorite brand ❓But you always express the taste so well 🤗 ことりGood evening, Jay & Nobby, I'm the little guy who can't just drop by ☺️ and leave empty-handed 😅 trusting the taste buds of the store owner who stocked it? I'd like to enjoy the encounter with a brand you don't see very often 😊. ことりAroma: A sweet, mature aroma with no gassy feeling. After the gentle acidity, there was a slight bitterness, followed by a mushroom-like taste, and then the umami spread to the palate. It was delicious with grilled fatty salmon kama.
Rice polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 18%. ことりIt is completely different from the Junmai Ginjo Seha Mangetsu (hiyaoroshi) released in the fall, and the spring version is a blend of several different types of sake. It has a gentle ginjo aroma and a clean, slightly bitter taste, but it also has a delicious flavor and is easy to drink. The best thing about it is that I was surprised at its cost performance 😳.

Slightly effervescent 🫧Lasting refreshing acidity, light fruity taste, slight sweetness, and a hint of astringency, but easy to drink. The sake cup is probably better to use a ceramic one than a clear glass, as it does not look dirty.
Oh, my! I found a piece of wooden vat at the bottom of the bottle! Super precious! But I drank it before I knew it😳.

Alcohol content 13%. Bo生酛純米酒 秋田酒こまち純米生酛無濾過にごり酒発泡 ことりWhile researching sake, I learned that lactobacilli play an important role in the production of sake. I visited a sake shop in search of active nigori sake and was told that this one, which is made using the traditional sake yeast, was recommended. We headed home with high expectations for our first sake with a hole in the bottle!
The fruity complexity of the aroma, along with the acidity and sweetness that burst in my mouth 🫧I was shocked at how delicious it was since I have spent most of my life without drinking sake except for life events 😳.
The second day...third day...and as the gas settled down, the sweetness gradually became more noticeable 🤔I was impressed by the changing taste and deliciousness of sake as the days went by 🥹.
