Tengumai能登初桜 酒蔵復興応援酒

It is said to be a blend of Noto Hatsusakura Honjozo + Tengumai, which miraculously survived the Noto Peninsula earthquake. Hoping for recovery... 😌. The nose has a slight grain and alkaloa aroma, and the palate has cotton candy and honey nuances. It has a somewhat classic impression, but the soft, smooth mouthfeel with sweet flavor and crisp, sharp acidity leaves a clean, refreshing aftertaste like a bite of a young apple. It is a medium to slightly dry, light and umami type of sake. The entrée was mentaiko (cod roe) and fluffy omelet, and the 🧄salted pork guts had an irresistible crunchy texture 😋. Thank you for the food 😚😛.

出羽桜桜花吟醸酒 本生吟醸生酒にごり酒

Seasonal limited edition 🤗 The aroma is mildly fruity, with a pleasant microbubbly gaseous sensation like that of a pure sake, and a light nigori (light mist). It has a lingering flavor with a little bit of koji sweetness, a little bit of alkali, and a little bit of saltiness. It went well with sashimi. The next day, the alu feeling that had been bothering me was well adjusted and it became smooth and delicious.

We welcomed you here in February🤗. I think my heart was leaking out of my mouth when I saw it on the liquor shelf at the supermarket...⁉️Why is it in the supermarket? I asked about it, and it seemed to be a project to support Hokuriku. The bottling time is 2021.1...the shipment is 2024.1 After 3 years... 😌. The top aroma is sweet and mature with sourness, quince, bitter cocoa and fruity coffee, and umami spreads with a deep savory flavor like soy sauce mash. There is a slight saltiness, a lingering sweet and sour aftertaste like after eating dried fruits, and a lingering aroma like Shaoxing wine on the nose.... I can't wait to drink more as I explore the flavors. The other day, I went back to this supermarket and found 2 bottles of the same one left...discounted to 1400 yen 😫....a bit frustrating...!

Hello, Kotori-san! I would guess that the person in charge of purchasing at this supermarket is quite a sake lover (laughs). However, it is hard for supermarkets to keep it in stock forever. Let the sake lovers around you buy it!

Tomoyuki Kumagai, Hi 😊At the time of the Hokkaido Fair, Kamikawa also 🤭and at the same time, Colonel Lalu was also asked to come here and it might have been a nationwide Benimaru project 😆At the Kyushu Fair, I also asked for Miyazaki sake... 🤣.

I found an unfamiliar label mixed in with the local Tochigi sake at the supermarket.... I picked it up because it looked like there was some left over from the Kamikawa Taisetsu ⁉︎ Goryo or Tokachi ⁉︎ Hokkaido Fair 🤗. The aroma is subdued, but sweet like a cherry drop if you include it. It has a malted rice aroma and a bitter aftertaste. I think I'll try the other half with warmed sake... On the second day, I warmed it up to lukewarm and it tasted sweet and sour, another delicious taste 😚...but the bitterness remained. I want to be able to say "this is delicious! I'd like to be able to say that it is delicious...along with cheese crackers, a souvenir from Hokkaido.

Again, at Benimaru. I always patrol the sake corner when shopping for food...well, I always patrol the sake corner 😊Local sake: Mitatsuru, Kirifuri, Shikizakura, Sawahime, Sohyo, etc., and a wide selection of seasonal fruit wine is also available, which is a nice touch! The cherry blossoms are beginning to fall 🌸🍃 and the spring sake corner is just about the last spurt of pink and crowded. The number of sake with carbonated water has been increasing, hasn't it? Sweet and sour or slightly sparkling... I like it. It was delicious with a refreshing, sweet and sour taste with a strawberry-like aroma 🍓Is this a characteristic of red yeast? I'll have to drink more to find out 😋I'm also curious what pink sake lees tastes like. I need to drink it again.

I was curious about your review. Kubota Nigori. I found it at the sake corner of Benimaru! Smooth on the palate. Fine-grained, light type of ori. Soft, fruity, gorgeous ginjo aroma. Elegant, with a slight white dumpling-like quality. It's so sweet, I think I'm going to drink too much😋. but... tomorrow is my annual physical checkup 😣. I am glad that I am allowed to drink up to 1 gou of sake the day before. I want to drink again Sake degree -33

Hi Eririn 😊I was very nervous for about 10 days after the checkup as I was waiting for the results. The picture of Harukoyi that Eririn-san posted before looked really cute and delicious, so I immediately went to the liquor store to get some 🛵I'll treat myself after the checkup!
