The best of the fantastic Oroku. It has an aroma derived from oak barrels and a lively, dense but unique flavor, as is typical of nama-shu.

Good evening. I am a cold sake supremacist. But sometimes I want to know the goodness of room temperature sake. I bought a bottle of Gunma-izumi at the first store I went to with this in mind! It is a representative of cold and hot sake! What do you think? Let's get to it!
The aroma is more intense than floral, with a strong, full, sweet rice aroma. The soft mouthfeel has a sweetness as if you are eating fluffy rice, and the sourness that surrounds it is very nice. It is an amazing sake that makes you realize that this is what the flavor of rice is all about. It is a strong, full-bodied sake with a lot of sharpness. It is a classic sake, and I think it is a sake for a select group of people. However, it is a dangerous sake in the sense that it disappears before you know it if you keep drinking it with half a doubt in your mind. If you really want to enjoy a classic sake, you should drink Gunma-izumi. I don't have any at the moment, but I will write about my impressions of the hot sake later, so please wait a little while. Thank you again for the food and drink tonight!
P.S.
I tried heating it up. Oh, the good aroma of the rice is still there, but the umami of the rice has been added to the richness, the acidity has become sharper, and finally there is a moment of concentrated sweetness and a strong sharpness, just like a classic royal road.

Takasago純米大吟醸 火入

I saw your post about how you are enjoying Halloween and I regret a bit that my Halloween ended in September 🤣🤣.
Tomorrow is November and I have a lot of exciting events like exams, medical checkups, and work related trips 😅.
I used to study with sake in my hand 😁I just get sleepy when I don't feel like doing anything 🤣I'm going to spend my mornings and evenings at McDonald's (McD in Kansai 😅).
Well, I've written about whatever came to mind, but this time I'm going to visit Mr. Takasago from the Kiyamasa Sake Brewery of Jikin 😍.
It has a banana🍌-like aroma with a hint of gas. The mouthfeel is gentle, with a refreshing umami and a citrus-like acidity that is gradually felt. It is a refreshing sake with no bitterness. The nose also has hints of banana and melon.
On the third day, the gas disappears and the sweetness becomes stronger, and it is easy to drink with a clear sweet flavor and refreshing acidity 😁.
I think the price is calm among junmai daiginjos and it was delicious, but I don't think I will repeat it because there are many cheap and good sake 🤔.

Hanaizumi純米無濾過生原酒 上げ桶直詰め

Unfortunately, the BayStars lost, and I was supposed to take a rest day, but I ended up drinking 😅.
Another brand from Hanaizumi in Lo Mang ✨.
Mild aroma, I wonder what this aroma is 🤔 I felt it wasn't fruity. It has a beautiful mouthfeel and a hint of petit gas. It has a strong clear sweet flavor, but it's also very drinkable 🥰The acidity is also very strong, and I don't detect any bitterness, but it's refreshing and tasty ✨.
Second day
It smells of banana and melon. Huh? It's still fruity 🤔Clear sweetness becomes stronger. The acidity is a little sharp and the aftertaste is also bitter. More delicious 😁.
I tried it because it looks good in heated sake in a review by a liquor store,
Warmed to human skin, the sweetness expands!
Lukewarm: The mouthfeel is mild and smooth, with a full-bodied sweetness and a hint of acidity.
Kamikan (warmed up) It is sweet, but also full of acidity.
It has a sweet taste, but the acidity is also very high.
It is a delicious sake with good cost performance, so if you are interested in it, please try it!

Hello, Chirsta 😃
We lost, but we were in this position despite many injuries, so yes, I agree! I thought it would be better to drink it cold since it was described as a direct-filling of the vat of raw sake, but it was also good warmed up. I thought it would be better to drink it cold, but it was also delicious warmed up!

I bought it because it is the brand name of Nishida Sake Brewery of Tasake 😁Zenchidori (Utou) was established as the bird of Aomori City 🐦⬛ and is a seabird of about 30 cm in height.
The "Hyakushikan" is found at Nishida Sake Brewery and is called "Hanamoi". The name "Hyakushika" is derived from the fact that the name of the strain before the rice was named was "Aokei Sake No. 140" (Blue Sake No. 140). Nishida Shuzo uses the name Hyakushikan 😃.
Bon appétit ✨
The aroma is like grape🍇, but with a fuller flavor. No gas. The mouthfeel is beautiful, with a touch of translucent sweetness, and there is a strong sweet juiciness to it. The nose has a fruity aroma like green apples. After that comes a feeling of alcoholiness, which is a bit like a massage 🤔At first, to be honest, I didn't feel that it was similar to Tazake.
Third day
The sweetness has increased and it feels clearer, but the sugar content has increased. The acidity is also clearing up ✨As with the last Tasake I reviewed, I personally preferred it after a few days 🥰.
So I was the last to do so, but it was a 200 check-in: ㊗️
