理華A staff member told us that this year's Snoclet is rather dry and less sweet than before.
This year's Snoclet is a little sweeter and drier than before...
I was expecting it to be sweet like before, so I was a little disappointed,
But I still wanted to try it ❕.
When I opened the lid a little, it started stirring automatically.
Repeatedly and safely opened the bottle 🙌
It's so refreshing!
And it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ⤴️😍!
It's definitely less sweet than before, but I can feel the grapefruit even more 🎊.
It's still so yummy 😋😋😋.
I'm so glad I didn't give up and buy it 😍.

Hey, let's have a drink together again at ❣️🎶🎶! ポンちゃんRika, I look forward to working with you again this year 😊.
Kouei Kiku, I was so confused by the monthly releases that I passed on the Yamada Nishiki this time 💦 but the reviews look delicious💕I'm tempted to drink it 😆👍 理華Ponchan❣️The New Year has passed 😂Let's keep it up this year too❣️
I know 😂I've been wondering what to buy since they are releasing so many new euphoric chrysanthemums 😆 I've been going through the pattern of not buying any of the ones that have been released since then because I'm so confused lol ジョセフィンHappy New Year 🎍⛩.
I wish you a happy new year.
Please be careful if you are in the vicinity of the earthquake and other serious events since New Year's Day.
Here is the sake for the New Year, which I chose by the label. The cat wearing a dragon's headdress is cute🐈.
According to the store's description, it has "a fruity flavor and a clear taste typical of a well-polished junmai daiginjo.
I've been sick since New Year's Eve and only tasted a sip, but I couldn't taste much. I will drink it again after I get better. 🙇♀️

Gorgeous aroma, grapefruit, gassy
Osechi cuisine ジョセフィンI bought it because I thought it was a Christmasy label🎄.
I've never had kijoshu before, but this one is sparkling, refreshing and easy to drink.
On the palate, it has a peach? It is sweet like nectar, not heavy, crisp and refreshing. Delicious and makes you want to drink more and more.
We had it with Christmas chicken🍗 and cake.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 14deg.
300㎖ ¥1,155 理華Yum!
Hiragana Takachiyo, though I've tried a few,
I love the blue label so much😍😍
This is it!
The sweetness, the fruity taste, the cloudiness...
It's sweet and fruity and cloudy... I love it! ❣️❣️ 
理華Attracted by the pop that says 🍈 like a young melon🍈, ❣️
And my first time in Ehime: ❣️
Finally one step closer to the map painting comp 😆.
Light, refreshing and summery!
Very well-balanced sake 🎶.
It goes well with all kinds of dishes 👏.
But not as melon as I expected.
A little disappointed 🤣 MAJHi Rika! Hello Rika!
Finally you reached my hometown Ehime 😆👍Young melon means light melon🍈, right? 🤔 遥瑛チチGood evening, Rika 🌆.
Congratulations on your first time in Ehime: ㊗️
I didn't know there was such a summer sake in Ishizuchi: ❗️
I love melon🍈 so I want to try it!
Oh, but it's young melon, not fully ripe...
Hmmm... 理華MAJ 😆 Yes I finally got there Ehime ❣️😂
I was expecting a bit more melon flavor, but it was more of a urchin blue flavor than a light one 😆 I love being young 😆. 理華Haruei Chichi 😆 First time in Ehime❣️ slow steps to conquer the whole country a little closer 😆.
I'll have to try other Ishizuchi flavors 😂This time it was refreshing like a summer sake 😆.
But if anything I prefer sweet and ripe too 😂. 
理華I was drawn to the citrus flavor 🍊 pop, so I bought it: ❣️
Simple label, but I was really attracted to it!
The 🍊 is as refreshingly citrusy as the pop-up says 🍊!
It was like grapefruit on the first day.
After a couple of days, it became sweeter and more like 🍊Mikan 🍊😍.
Refreshing yet fruity 🎶.
I like it 👍
I asked the staff at the liquor store what dishes it would go well with,
I asked the staff at the liquor store what appetizers would go well with it, for example, a grapefruit salad ❕❕.
But it's not the season for grapefruit,
I couldn't prepare anything that fancy🤣.
I put a lot of pulpy tangerine jelly on top of the salad 😂 messy 🤣 lol.
But ❕It went well with sake 😍.
Messy 🤣
I want to be a better cook 😂😅😅 ma-ki-Good evening, Rika-san.
I had an image that Kochi sake was dry (although I have never drunk that much 💧), but there is a refreshing sweet and tasty sake with citrus flavor ✨.
I don't often come across sake from Shikoku, so I'll be referring to this! ポンちゃんRika, good evening 🌙
Salad with mandarin orange jelly 🍊😳It's so innovative👍!
And the taste from there also goes well with sake 😳 kanRika Good morning ☀️
What a great label 😊.
My favorite word.
Simple is best 😊 マナチーHi Rika 😃Grapefruit salad with something that goes well with it...you're a waiter who brings out things that I don't usually eat at home 🤣I wish you'd bring out more things that I would usually eat as snacks 😂. MantaHi Rika ^ ^
Refreshing citrus 🍊 drink sounds delicious✨
After all, citrus drinks have citrus food 👍.
I think a salad with pulpy mandarin orange jelly might be a good and innovative idea 😁. ジェイ&ノビィHi Rika 😃
I'm curious because I love the taste of 🍊mikan 🍊s 😊I love the idea of mandarin orange jelly in a salad 🥗😆. 理華ma-ki-San⤴️Yes❕Kochi sake has an image of being crisp and dry 😆but it seems to be different these days☝️Sake using Kochi yeast cel24, sweet and fruity❣️Kameizumi cel24 is recommended 👍 理華Ponchan 😆 No matter how I wanted to prepare something similar to the salad recommended by the staff, I just adopted the mandarin orange jelly that came down from heaven lol 😆 I really wanted to drink it with grapefruit salad 🤣. 理華Kan 💕Simple is Best⤴️Yeah, just like kan's image👍😍I prefer clean and crisp too❣️ 理華Manachie 😂I was also like whoa 😲 really 🤣 when the group fruit salad came out 😂I wouldn't normally prepare it 😅but yesterday at another liquor store, they said grapefruit salad lol 😂that's the trend ❔. 理華Manta 💕I'm finally learning about what goes well with alcohol 😂One other day, I made a salad with orange olive oil and salt and it went great 😍I wish it wasn't jelly lol. 理華Jay & Nobby 💕I love citrus fruits so when it comes to citrus, I buy sake too 😍The salad with mikan jelly on top surprised even my husband 🤣I'll keep grapefruit on hand for the season lol. 
理華If you see hiragana takachiyo, you must buy it ❕😆 if you fail to buy it, there will be no next time 😂.
grape, light nigori, active
if it is, more and more ❕.
But the first day 😂
I'm sorry, but I don't know 🤣.
It's indeed an active fresh 🎶 It's very vigorous 🎶 and sweet, which is also my favorite 😋.
But as the activity settles down a bit and oxidizes, the flavor starts to resemble group 🍇 juice 😍.
I asked at the restaurant what dish would go well with this ❔ and they said sautéed pork ⤴️
They said they wanted me to drink it as a berry sauce that would help to drain off the fat!
Genius ❕😆
I followed the lecture and paired it with the sautéed pork, and I was right - ❣️ ポンちゃんRika, good evening 🌙
Grape🍇 takachiyo looks delicious💕I'm drinking a different color of takachiyo right now😊.
It must be hard to answer which dish it goes well with, but it's amazing 😳👍and I'm glad it's delicious 😆👍💕. T.KISORika, good morning ☀️
I drank it the other day and it was really grapey and delicious.
I want to drink it again...❣️ 遥瑛チチHi Rika 😃
This is the very grape juice 🍇 itself ❗️
Ale❓
Why are you not in the group despite all the praise?
Maybe it's because
There are some outliers in hiragana takachiyos too 😁. 理華Ponchan❣️ hiragana takachiyos, they are delicious no matter which one you choose 😆 but here, they are sold out as soon as they are lined up in the store, so it's rare to come across them 😂.
The waitresses are geniuses who can suggest dishes that go well with the food: ⤴️ 理華T.KISO❣️I don't mean to be presumptuous, but you and T.KISO have similar tastes, and we both enjoy drinking grape🍇feeling drinks 😍I can't help but buy them if you say so 😍I'd love to drink them again 😆. 理華Haruei Chichi-san ❣️ ❔There is a Takachiyo club ❔😲 I just didn't know about it until now 😂.
I'd love to try many different kinds of hiragana takachiyo, but I usually lose the battle with T Sake Shop 😂. 
理華It's my guess ❣️'s sake from Wakanami Brewery!
The Dragonfly series
It is less fruity and gorgeous than the regular Wakanami series 🤔.
But when you sniff a freshly opened bottle, the refreshing fruity aroma will lift your spirits 😍.
The taste is also refreshing and perfect for summer ⤴️
It's like grapefruit with a hint of sweetness 🤤.
It's not like the usual "smooth and tasty" but it really makes a statement 😍.
I like it ⤴️⤴️
I knew it, wakasama❣️
The Dragonfly series is also wonderful 🤩.
Recently, when I buy alcohol.
I'm addicted to always asking the shopkeeper to tell me what food matches with it 😆.
They recommend all kinds of fried food!
I tried the fried shrimp 🍤.
As expected, as recommended, it goes really well 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋. ポンちゃんRika, are you okay with the heavy rain? Kyushu has been a disaster 😰.
I drank Wakanami for the first time at the Gura-san's Osaka meeting 😊This is delicious 💕I want to drink various labels and this brand too 😆I'll ask the waiter to teach me too! Rafa papaRika, good evening 😃.
The Dragonfly series summer sake looks delicious 🤣It's NICE to ask the waiter about the matching sake alcohol 👍I said the same thing at a restaurant before and they refused saying they could tell me what sake would go with the food 😭. T.KISOGood evening, Rika😄.
I see there is another series of Wakanami 😳
I've been wanting to drink Wakanami after a long time ❣️
(**○`)o🍺 遥瑛チチHi Rika 😃
It's time to start up the young waves club 😋.
I've never experienced dragonfly 🤣.
Oh, I'll drink at the offline meeting 👋 理華Pon-chan💕I hope your encounter with Wakanami with Gula-chan was delicious ❔😍encountering the unknown is exciting 😆I enjoy talking with the liquor store when I ask about sake and food pairings 💕I'm hooked 😍. 理華Rafa papa ❕ Oh my gosh 😂 I've yet to say "please choose the sake that goes with this dish" 💦 I wonder what the liquor store would say if I did 😂. 理華T.KISO-san❣️It's been a while since I've been in the Wakanami club 😆💕I heard that the Dragonfly series has a different distribution channel than Wakanami and ranks a little lower, but they've recently changed the form or the level of Dragonfly is also higher❣️Come to Fukuoka 🤩. 理華Haruei Chichi ❕What😲😆 have you never experienced Dragonfly ❔❕❔❔❔😆 recently, Dragonfly is serving season sake 😍I want to win all the red, black and ⤴️ 🎶.

Citrus sweetness and acidity, refreshing
Firefly squid pickled in the sea (Toyama souvenir)
grilled mackerel ジョセフィンAlthough out of season, autumn dragonflies.
Not much aroma, but fruity sweetness and clean, light dry taste. It is easy to drink and delicious.
It is best served cold (room temperature) or cold (hanayaka).
The second drink was a sake cocktail called "Ponchu Greer," made with Amaou strawberries.
Pour the sake into a bottle filled with Japanese dried fruit and beet sugar, etc., and stir until the hackberry sugar dissolves to create a sweet, fruity sake cocktail. It is a delicious sake version of sangria.

理華I heard that they are trying to make delicious sake with 90% rice polishing 🙆🙆I picked it up.
When a sake brewer tells you the story of the sake and the brewery, you become much more interested and attached to it⤴️.
They use natural yeast and brewed in wooden casks 🤔Hmmmmm!
Before I drank it, I thought it would be very different from the SENKYO I've had before.......
Oh my gosh 💕It still has that great SENKYO aroma 🎶 and the taste is just like SENKYO 💕.
And it tastes just like SENKYO 💕.
The usual sweet and sour taste is a bit more refreshing 😍.
I had an image that if the rice polishing ratio is high, it tastes like rice and has a cloying taste, but this has none at all!
It's so delicious ❕🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩.
I think Sentori's acidity is very characteristic.
I think the sweetness increases after a few days.
It tastes good both when opened and after some time 💕💕💕. MAJRika, good evening! 😄
I had somehow passed on the Organic Naturals for no reason. 🤣 But it still looks delicious, I'll buy it next time 😋. 理華MAJ 😂There are so many sakes I want to drink, and so many I'm not even through 😂😂I wonder when I'll be satisfied that I've drunk most of the sake released in the world lol 🤣🤣. 
理華When I ask the staff at the liquor store.
They tell me all kinds of stories.
I love that time 😍😍.
If there's no brand I'm after
I always choose the staff's recommendation in such a conversation 😆.
This time I came across this one 🎶.
It smells more like jelly or candy than fruity 😲 like ramune 😆.
When I put it in my mouth
It's like an apple with high sugar content 💕💕💕💕!
It's so easy to drink.
I thought it was low alcohol, but it's 15% 🤣🤣 oh no!
Oh no, I'm gonna drink more and more lol
If it's carbonated it's like a cider 🍏🍎🤤🤤🤤🍏🍎🤤.
When it first came out in May, it was tart and refreshing.
but the ones being shipped now are supposed to be sweeter and just as good.
The staff said it should be just as good as it was when it came out in May.
That's right 🤩❕❕❕.
I really want to drink this again! つよーだいHi 😁 one summer love...................................................................sounds like a resoraba 😅🤯. 理華Oh no 🤣Tsuyodai lol 🤣🤣 I'm pretty old to know what a Resolava is - lol 🤣🤣 MAJRika, good evening! I'm so happy to see you here 😄
I think I might like this current lot if the sweetness is on it~! 😆 I'll be a candidate for my next stocking 😁😁 きっしーI remember this being delicious 🧡. 理華MAJ 💕This one is really good and I drank it so fast 😂I hope you try it 😍😍🎶. 理華KISSHI 💕💕I took a peek at your past reviews ⤴️⤴️If it was June, it might have been more refreshing than this 🤔😍😍.
Harukoi sounds delicious ❕I want to try Harukoi next time 🤩🤩🤩. ジョセフィンWhen I went to buy Ishizuchi Doyoshu, only one bottle was available, so I bought this one.
This special junmai sake is made from a rare rice called "Shizuku Ehime," an original variety of Ehime Prefecture.
It has a melon-like aroma, refreshing acidity and umami flavor.
As the label says it goes great with summer vegetables, I enjoyed it with boiled corn, tomatoes, and sauteed chicken.
Rice used: 100% Ehime-grown Shizukuhime
Polishing ratio 60
Sake strength +5.5
Acidity 1.6
Yeast used: Home-brewed yeast
Alcohol content 16
720ml ¥1,430 ジョセフィンToday is Father's Day, my husband likes beer so I got him a beer and my daughter a grape rumune. Thank you for everything 🙇♀️.
Light and easy to drink, this umami sake is different from fruity summer sake. After the umami taste, you can feel the summer sake character.
Maybe a bit of a bad type for the first sip? But it is delicious when paired with food due to its robust umami.
Sake is hard to consume when you drink it alone, and the leftovers accumulate in the fridge💦.
We paired it with a bowl of tuna rice topped with fried cheese.
