It is no longer a summer term. The Sacred Bird Beetle.
We caught them by accident this year, too.
Sweet and sour as usual and a little lactic acidic.
The first sip always surprises me a little.
From the second day, the sourness has settled down a little and the taste has become more familiar.
I prefer it if I leave it a little longer, but it disappears soon.
It's strange.
Hi sikamaru 😃
A summer season word that you can catch without being aware of it! Beetle 🌈, isn't it 😆.
And I noticed that you are over 400 🎉 Congratulations on your ㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️
I went straight to the liquor store on my way home from work. I found an unfamiliar sake and bought it. It was my first Yamanashi sake.
When I opened the bottle, the aroma was mild. Although it is a nama-shu, the sense of freshness is moderate. The acidity is weak, and the sweetness and umami are not too assertive. It did not have any special characteristics, but it was a good drink.
It is clean and beautiful, with a good acidity. Although the rice used is Yamadanishiki, I thought the sweetness was restrained. However, as the temperature rises slightly, the sweetness seems to increase, and the taste reminds me of pears. The aftertaste is surprisingly bitter. It also has a full-bodied taste.
It has a crisp yet lingering acidity! Casual and light drinking, perhaps due to the 13.5 alcohol content. I think the acidity is fruity. It is not strong, but I feel there is some natural sweetness and bitterness. According to the back of the label, "Usually Gagakuyo is designed with a sake quality that does not produce acidity. It is true that the ones I have had so far seem to have less acidity as the main ingredient. I thought this sake was just right for the end of this hot summer.
Spring Tenmei, Peach Heaven🍑 has arrived!
Flowering is finally declared 🌸
They say it's 2 weeks later than last year!
Fresh and citrusy 🍊 sweet and tasty!
Okay, spring is in full bloom, let's go 😁.

Apple sensation, definitely there! Fruity acidity in the aftertaste. I think it is connected to the appleiness. Very fizzy mouthfeel. The taste has umami, or depth. I wonder if this is the effect of brewing in wooden vats. If I were to introduce this sake simply, it would be a delicious apple cider vinegar that can be guzzled down. The rice used is 100% Omachi.
Clear sake with a "hard" image. It has a bittersweetness, but also a gorgeousness that opens up in the mouth. Therefore, the sweetness is extremely restrained. The acidity may also contribute to the "hard" image. There is also a slight sense of alcohol. The specs are once-fired, but it doesn't seem as fresh as I thought it would be.
I prefer it after a day. It seems to have more flavor!
This sake claims to be the ultimate food sake. As a whole, the acidity stands out. There is also a light sweet nuance on the palate, but the bitter impression that follows is stronger. It is a sake with few peculiarities, and has a sharpness that resets the palate. This seems to complement food well.
Summer mood, good mood! Because of its flavor, it tastes great even when served over ice. Not only because it was chilled to a crisp, but also because it has a cool aftertaste. I was able to drink it on the rocks for the first time in over two years.
The unctuous sweetness lingers in the mouth. I thought it would be more refreshing since it is an amami, but considering that it is a junmai daiginjo, it is very flavorful! Perhaps it is because of the gasiness, but the heaviness is not that strong, and I felt it was just the right mouthfeel. It has a delicious flavor, and I wonder if it has a little bit of a grain-like nuance.
Hiroki Shuzo Honten Hiroki Junmai Daiginjo served cold.
This is the Junmai Daiginjo that I have longed for.
It was a birthday celebration for myself.
Elegant aroma.
Smooth flavor and acidity on the palate.
I found myself emptying the bottle...
Transparent Yamadanishiki! Sweetness is restrained. The initial mouthfeel is a bit floral, and sweet nuances are felt. Overall, bitterness may slightly prevail. The color is a little yellowish and there is a light acidity that gives it a refreshing feel. The Yamada-Nishiki feeling is not fully apparent, but I think I can catch a glimpse of it.
Dry, but with a little sweet nuance! It is light and crisp. É It gives a sweet impression especially on the palate. It is a very easy-drinking sake, perhaps thanks to its freshness. It has a complex flavor, and I thought it had a light umami and richness. However, overall, it is refreshing and makes the cup go down a treat!
The sake rice is Dewanosato and Ogawa yeast (Association No. 10) is used.
Mild sake with a clear taste. Light bitterness and acidity! There is also a hint of sweetness. You will not get tired of drinking it. On the back of the front label, there is a red and black goldfish illustration. It looks like a goldfish bowl. It gives a sense of coolness from its appearance.
Strong impact when just opened! Sweetness plus a fruity acidity that is different from citrus. There is also a bitter aftertaste. Tingling on the tongue, strong acidity. The taste is complex and gives the impression of being somewhat dense. At first I thought it didn't seem like Omachi, but in the end it was still Omachi.
The cool, sweet ♩ taste receded quickly and left a light impression on the tongue. Although the taste is clear, it is surprisingly not boring to drink. A delicious sake that can be recommended to those who like sweet sake. I haven't had many drinks with brewer's alcohol added, but I got a good image of it!
Refreshing summer sake! It is very refreshing, with a real light soozing sensation in the mouth. The taste is sweet and sour, similar to fruit. Perhaps because the rice used is Yamada-Nishiki, the sweetness is a little more pronounced. Therefore, the sweetness lingers on the tongue. I thought this was a sake that one could associate with summer.
From the moment it enters the mouth, the lightness and sweet-sourness of this sake make it very approachable. It has a complex aftertaste in some areas, but the overall impression is refreshing! The alcohol content of 14 degrees may be one of the reasons for this.
This sake is made by an assemblage of sake mixtures. The rice used is listed as 20% Kame-no-o, 50% Yamada-Nishiki, and 30% Omachi. On the back of the label, there is also a Ukrainian flag and STOP WAR. The message of the assemblage, that all we need is to join hands and get together, really resonated with me.
It tastes better after a few days!
Gentle and dry! Clean, clear, watery mouthfeel. Acidity can be felt, but it is not the type that cuts through. The aftertaste is light and bitter. Although it is made from Yamada-Nishiki, it does not have a characteristic sweetness. I think it has a high degree of perfection as a food sake!
This is a raw sake with a touch of sweetness. It has a ginjo aroma and a gentle mouthfeel immediately after opening. After a little while after pouring, it gives a different impression. The crisp acidity is very good, and the aftertaste is complex! The sweetness does not linger, but rather lingers in the elegant aftertaste. There is just a tiny orikori floating on the surface, leaving a delicious taste on the tongue.
I see more umami riding on it as the day goes on! The acidity has settled down and is a bit mild.
