This is my first time to try Shichihonjari. I was interested in it when I watched a rare Sake Labo CH, which also introduced a rare dry sake.
Almost no aroma. There is a slight graininess. The gas has been roughly released, probably due to the bottle's stopper.
When you drink it, it is... delicious! There is still some freshness, but the taste is not violent and it is very smooth.
It has a graininess, with a hint of banana. The mild aroma, the umami, and the sudden dry finish make this a perfect food wine. It's good, I like it! LOL!
It goes well with any kind of sake! It goes well with pork miso soup, grilled mackerel, kimchi nabe, hot pot, soy milk nabe, salt nabe............................all nabe! LOL!
As a single sake, the first half and the second half are completely different from each other. Compared to Abe, which "somehow goes well with food" and Zanzou Hourai, which "somehow goes well as a stand-alone sake," this sake has a different character that allows you to taste two different kinds of sake with just one. Oh, if you are not used to drinking sake, you will probably feel it is much drier.
Sake Labo is basically a channel that introduces easy-to-digest sakes that are either sweet or fruity, so this selection is typical of them as an "easy-to-drink sake" even though it is a dry sake!

Akabu's new sake (?) "Amber" was too good for autumn sake. The sake is a ginjo-shu. It has been a while since I have tasted a sake that is not junmai (pure rice).
The aroma is slight, but not strong enough to describe. It smells of peaches and apples. As the temperature rises, it becomes brown sugar-like.
What is this? Moist and soft...! The brown sugar-like richness and sweetness are present, but it is moist and soft, so there is no unpleasant feeling at all! This brown sugar and pear/melon taste is Akabu's style, as it was in the autumn sake.
There is no particular sense of fizz, and again, I thought it would be more sake-like, but it is just beautiful. I thought it would be more like sake, but it is just beautiful. The very rounded mouthfeel leads to the beautifulness, and it is quite different from what I imagined, in a good way!
It doesn't lose its meloniness for about a week. It is a beautiful sake with a soft mouthfeel and is delicious all the time, either on its own or with a meal...!
The quality of this sake, which lives up to its reputation, is unbelievably impressive. It doesn't matter if it is junmai or not, what is good is good... I was very impressed!

I thought I'd probably drink Brewing Forest someday, but I didn't think I'd ever have the chance... But after reading your review here, I suddenly felt the urge to drink it, so I went to the restaurant for the first time. ...
I can't really imagine what it tastes like because there is surprisingly little standing aroma, but I guess it's kind of strong and umami.
When I sipped it... how easy to understand and how delicious it was! The fruity sweetness is delicious! Absolutely everyone loves it! It is fun to see the sweetness change to umami in the middle of the bottle. It's fun to see how the sweetness disappears, and to realize that the acidity is the reason for this!
The freshness and clarity of the acidity, somewhat like that of a soft drink, comes from the middle to the end. The end is a bitter and pungent taste that finishes with a kick. The length of the aftertaste is medium.
It is a wonderful sake that people would drink this sake whenever they want to drink sweet and tart sake. The price is also very reasonable, as a 300ml bottle costs about 800 yen, and a No. 4 bottle costs about 1,650 yen.
To be honest, it is similar to Abeno Jungin Nama, but the price for this flavor is quite shocking, and combined with the good cost performance, it is very impressive!

Marubi from Hiraizumi, which I got on my way home from visiting a grave.
She accompanied me for dinner because she wanted to try some sake!
My second son and my 🍶♥♥♥♥ mother 😭💕!
Now, how sour is it?
I thought the sourness and sweetness would stand out, but the milder the sourness, the more you bite into it, the more the sweeter the sweetness comes through, making it very well-balanced!
I wonder what it would be like if it were warmed up? I'd like to try it next time!

Good morning, ma-ki! He was impressed with the first sip 😃, but the bitterness of the sake was still too mature for him and he could only lick the amount, but I would love to drink with him again 😃.

In Miyagi, it was already sold out and I couldn't buy it, but
But I was able to buy it in Tokyo.
When I opened the lid, I could smell the sweet aroma of strawberries.
It was a sweet and sour strawberry flavor that melted in my mouth.
The low alcohol content (11%) makes it easy to drink and I drank the whole bottle in no time😅.
(Ummm....yum!
