Fruity aroma, mild and light sweetness on the palate, with a strong umami and bitterness.

Kuchiman's standard sake. It has a clear, clear sake quality and is slightly acidic and light. It is similar to Kubota's Senju. It has a little more umami and sweetness than Kubota. However, this is not my favorite type of sake.
Sake rice: Aizu rice (Gohyakumangoku, Yumenokou, Himenomochi)
Rice polishing ratio: 55
Alcohol content→15%.
Yeast→Utsukushima dream yeast

Delicious watery cleanness. A little fresh, crisp, muscat-like beautiful sweetness from the It has a firm, Omachi-like flavor, but is gentle and smooth on the palate. It is delicious!
Sake rice: 77% Bizen Omachi (Kake rice)
Polishing ratio→60
Alcohol content: 15 degrees Celsius

It has a fresh and beautiful sake quality, but the fresh youthfulness seems to be rough and the taste is not well integrated in my personal opinion. I wonder if the balance between acidity and astringency is not quite right!
In the grand scheme of things, though, it's delicious!
Sake rice → 80% Izuwasanzu from Yamagata Prefecture
Polishing ratio→50
Alcohol content→14 degrees Celsius

Sharp, acidic, clean, sweet and tasty. I can also taste the flavor of wooden vats. I like the balance of refreshing acidity and umami.
According to information I found on the Internet, the flavor is a bit hard right after opening the bottle, and it tastes even better after a few days.
Normally I would drink about 3 gou of it at once, but today I think I will hold out for about 1 gou and let it grow!
Sake rice→100% Hachitan-Nishiki
Alcohol content→14 degrees
(Postscript after 3 days)
The sharpness has decreased, and the woody flavor has also decreased a lot. However, I don't have a very sensitive tongue, so I don't feel that much difference. In my personal opinion, I even think it is better the first day.
(A postscript after 5 days)
I think the acidity has softened and the umami has increased.
I am glad I let it sit. I think it tastes better now.

The second bottle I drank during GW was a limited collaboration sake from SAKELABO TOKYO, a famous YouTuber located in Jujo, Kita-ku, Tokyo, and SENGOKU!
SENKOKU HelloWorld by Sakerabo Tokyo
Last year, it was sold out immediately when I went to the store to buy it, but this year, I managed to get it on the day it went on sale by sticking to my computer and using a Saketaku,
This year, I managed to get a bottle by using a saketak after I was stuck on the computer on the day of release. I thought it was just a "Yukidaruma", but the taste was absolutely superb! It was one of the top 3 tastes of the year!
The crown is perforated, so you expect a fizzy feeling, but when you take a sip, it is a very mild lactic acid drink!
The taste is soft, sweet and smooth with a low alcohol content of 13 degrees.
A refined sweet and tasty nigori sake like Snowman<UA Snowman<UA Dragon (eto)<HelloWorld
This was a definite recommendation for those who like Sentori & sweet & tasty!
SakeLab Tokyo seems to have some in stock, so if you can come to the area, you should definitely try this bottle!
Rice Polishing Ratio : Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 60% (Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki)
Alcohol content: 13%.

Good morning, Kumakichi 😃.
You seem to have a lot of good stock 🤗🤗I'm going to start with the Kamerei behind you now, and this Sentori 🥲, a bottle that no one got even in Tochigi Pref. association ‼️.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby! I like to visit liquor stores, so I go around a lot, but when I am alone, I am too lazy to open a bottle... Actually, I also opened a bottle of Houou Mita on the same day! I love this one too!

ヒロ
Home Drinking.
Sake bought by the name on the label 🍶.
100% Yamadanishiki produced in Tottori
When opened, there is not much aroma.
The color is clear with bits of rice floating in the air. It is not nigori.
When drunk, it has a light and refreshing mouthfeel.
There is no sweetness, but instead a heavy umami flavor. It stands out because there is no extra flavor. It is right in the middle of junmai sake 🍶🌾🎯.
Occasionally, a sour aftertaste comes with a piquancy ⚡️. The sensation is so numbing that it could be mistaken for spiciness. If I wasn't used to drinking sake, I might have thought it was spicy.
Perhaps it is a classic type of sake, but it was easy to drink without feeling alcoholic 😄.
The sake 🍶 by itself is well worth a look 😤.

First Hirotogawa Nigori 🍶.
Immediately after opening the bottle, it was so fizzy that it gushed out: 🤦🏻♂️
The sweetness was subdued, but the shwashiness and the silky nigori was very tasty!

This is a firm favorite.
It is similar to chrysanthemum, but juicier and less peculiar.
It tastes just like juice.
No wonder it is so popular 🍶.

I had been curious about this brand for a while. It was said to have "a fruity sensation that bursts in your mouth" but I didn't really feel it.
It is said that the brewery specializes in Yamahai, and this one also had a Yamahai-like feel to it. When heated up, it was like a classic.
It was not my favorite.

HIROKI
Mango🥭 in the mouth? After a clean, fruity mouthfeel, the sweetness and umami spread moderately 😁.
It is a sake future, so it tastes reminiscent of Jyushiyo 🤤.
The sweetness is strong, but I guess it's covered up by the sharpness, it doesn't leave any residue on the palate 😀.
Very tasty 🤤🍶🍶.

HIROKI
It has a nice color and smells like it has matured 😊The rich umami flavor spreads in the mouth as you drink it 😀.
I felt the rich umami and a little sourness that only a sake brewed with a traditional sake yeast yeast stock can give. ❗️
The alcohol content was 15.5, but I felt it might be a little higher 🍶It is very delicious 🤤🍶.
Japanese>English
HIROKI
The palate is soft, fruity and citrusy sweet, like grapefruit or banana 😊.
It is not so bitter or pungent, but sometimes astringent 🍶.
The aftertaste is clean and lingering 🤤.
It is a very cosy sake 🍶.
Very tasty 🍶🤤.
Japanese>English
HIROKI
It has a nice aroma of muscat and peach🍑🤤.
With an alcohol content of 13%, it is very easy to drink and goes down very well. It has a rich aroma, a slight effervescence, a juicy and sweet flavor, and a strong bitterness with the depth of Omachi aftertaste 😊.
It's like an adult's rum 😀.
Very tasty 🍶.

Tenmei純米吟醸 秋あがり50 本生
酔nosuke
Tenmei's Autumn Sake! Autumn Sake 50, which has been aged as unpasteurized, unpasteurized, unpasteurized sake.
The first day after opening the mouth, a honey-like aroma and sweet flavor flood in, with almost no acidity and slightly bitter and spicy accents.
Everything is rich, including the umami, but it is mellow and has no curdles, and the word "mature" is exactly right for this delicious Aki-agari.
