Pon when opened
A little bit gaseous
Slightly yogurt-like top-end with a hint of plums.
The same gentle aroma as the first sip, soft rice flavor and sweetness spreads with a thick lactic acidity and a pichijuwatto, and it finishes with a slight bitterness.
The sweet and sour taste and gasiness make it easy to drink and gives the impression of wine in the latter half of the bottle, making it a great match with meals and also delicious on its own.
It is also delicious on its own. It went well with lebanila, Vietnamese salad with octopus and wakame seaweed, vinegared dishes, and stewed tsuwa from my wife's parents' house in Nagasaki. ぶんずToday we have a sake from "Toyo no Ume" that we were curious about!
It's a concept worker's selection, a product planned by a liquor store.
I wonder if it's a project of a liquor store? It's interesting to see so many different breweries participating 🤣.
There is no information on the bottle label, but it seems that the yeast is CEL-24!
The yeast seems to be CEL-24! I have high expectations!
It is said to be "oriented", but where?
Oooh! ‼️❣️ Smell of pineapple
A certain Musashi no Hana nana, huh?
Oh, gentle taste, sweet? Gentle taste
Drink, drink, drink....4 gou bottle, over half gone...!
I would like to try another brand from this brewery!

When opened Pon
Moderate gasiness
Slight strawberry and grape-like overtones
The same gentle aroma as on the top, firm umami of rice and moderate sweetness spreads with crisp acidity and finishes with a slight bitterness and dryness of alcohol.
In the first half, the mild aroma and the firm umami of rice can be felt, but in the second half, the classical acidity and the dryness of the alcohol make an interesting change in impression.
It is easy to match with meals, and is also crisp and tasty on its own.
It went well with Maki no Udon's chicken rice, seared chutoro (medium fatty tuna), sashimi of octopus head, and fried half a chicken. Fudo初恋の季節 (First Love)純米生酒 ぶんずToday's look? Drawn to it,
pink yeast sake.
It is a rich and powerful impression of Shimousakuni sake.
But in the season of first love, low alcohol and pink 🩷.
It's spring, isn't it?
Sweet and sour on the palate and taste.
The sake is low in alcohol, and spring has arrived! It's just like spring has come!
It's like spring has sprung, even though it's snowing outside.
It's a bottle that makes me feel excited.

When the bottle is opened, it pops!
Moderate gassiness
Slightly grapefruity top note
The same gentle aroma, soft rice flavor and not too strong sweetness spreads with citrus-like crisp acidity and a slight gassy feeling, and the slight bitterness that rises from the middle part of the bottle makes it crisp and clean.
On the second day, you realize that it was made with oriki (rice cake).
The acidity is enveloped by the creaminess of the rice curd, mellowing the wine.
On the third day, it becomes even mellower, with white wine-like nuances.
The impression is clean, refreshing, slightly dry and delicate, and of course delicious with a meal or on its own.
It went well with homemade meat sauce and salad. Fudo新酒しぼりたて直汲み 純米大吟醸生原酒 美山錦純米大吟醸原酒生酒 Masaaki Sapporo8 → 8.5 points (wife: 7.5 points)

The same fruity aroma as on the top, moist sweetness and full rice flavor, spreading with soft acidity and a touch of gassiness, and finishing with a slight bitterness and alcohol spiciness.
The aroma is soft and slightly sweet and umami, and the overall impression is mild, making it a good match with meals, but also delicious on its own.
About 3 days after the bottle is opened, the aroma of koji (malted rice) comes out and it becomes mellow.
It goes well with "Solo no Gourmet", a Japanese food show, stir-fried pork belly and green onion with salt and leeks, and leek namul. Masaaki Sapporo8.5 points (wife 8 points)

When opened
Almost no gas
Slightly sweet apple and pineapple-like overtones
The same fruity aroma as the first sip, the rounded sweetness and umami of rice spread out with a refreshing acidity, and it finishes quickly with a slight bitterness and a faint aroma of koji malt.
The pleasant aroma and slightly viscous sweet umami spread in the first half of the bottle, and then the acidity and slight bitterness are neatly integrated, leaving a pleasant koji lingering aftertaste.
It is easy to match with meals, and of course it is delicious on its own.
It goes well with dried octopus, soymilk sundubu, and kombu-marinated kaiware. Hanzo半蔵 & 愛山 七代目の想い・・・純米大吟醸 ぶんずToday's sake is "Hanzo" from Iga.
This is elegant, a little sweet, really elegant!
It is a sake that embodies the feeling of accompanying a meal, just like it says on the back.
It's a sake that embodies the feeling of accompanying a meal, as it says on the back.
It has a lot of sweet "Aizan", but it has a drunken feeling.
It's a very drunken sake.
thanks Yuhzakaya (Ezo: Makaei) ma-ki-Good evening, Bunzu-san.
I'm very interested in Hanzo & Aizan: ⤴️
Elegant sake that goes well with food 🤤.
I would definitely get it if I could come across it 😊. ぶんずma-ki-, thanks for your help 😊.
I'm sorry to say that this is my own image,
I thought "Aizan" was a very clear and assertive sake rice.
I had an image of "Aizan" as a very clear and assertive sake rice, but this brewery is... Masaaki Sapporo8.5 points (wife: 8 points)

When opened, the bottle was filled with a "shupon" (a Japanese word meaning "to pour").
No gassy feeling
Slightly ripe melon-like top note
The same fruity aroma as the first sip, with a slight sweetness and a rather robust umami that spreads out with a light acidity, leaving a slightly bitter aftertaste with a lingering rice flavor and a smooth finish.
The overall impression is well-balanced, with neither a strong sweetness nor a strong alcohol taste, making it easy to pair with meals, and of course, it is delicious on its own as well.
It went well with steak, corn soup, and French toast with strawberries and ice cream. Sugata初すがた 純米吟醸 無濾過生原酒純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過 Masaaki Sapporo8 points (wife 8 points)

Shu when opened
No gassiness
Slightly young banana-like top note
The same aroma as the gentle top rise, with a melon-like aroma behind the aroma, a rather firm rice flavor and soft sweetness that gradually spreads with citrus acidity, and a slight bitterness and a little alcohol spiciness that quickly fades away.
It may be the freshness or the alcohol taste in the latter half that stands out, or it may be a little clumpy, but it goes well with a meal and is also delicious on its own.
Seasoned Jingisukan (Matsuo Jingisukan) or
It went well with seasoned Jingisukan (Matsuo Jingisukan) and Iburi Gokko with cream cheese! ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Masaaki Sapporo 😃.
First appearance in the snow! Nice 🤗
I used to eat Matsuo's Jingisukan when I was working overnight with a contractor in Hokkaido a long time ago 😌 I miss it! ぶんずI was curious about this "figure" after drinking it in Kinugawa.
I found it at a sake shop in Maei, Sapporo.
The smell of pineapple from the moment I opened the bottle!
This aroma is so promising!
Yee...! Yiii! Gentle and without attack
It sinks in all the time, Shimono's sake, the best!
(But, Shimotsukare, is 、、、、、)
Glad you found it!
thanks Yuhzakaya (Sapporo:Mae) ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Bunzu-san 😃.
It's great to meet you in Kinugawa and see you again in Hokkaido 🤗Sigure! Please continue to enjoy 😋.
We, too, shimotsukare, ha 、、、、 ぶんずHi Jay & Novi, I am looking for a new product.
I understand 🫡I have checked dealers for Ona.
I can't seem to find a distributor for Chung-Ai.
There are no special dealers listed on the website.
I will look for it.
I got it from a local menu at an inn in Kinugawa.
Well, I'm sure you have many opinions. ぶんずToday's sake is a test brew from the holy city of Shibukawa, Kamishu!
I get a thrill from labels like this.
I have a new-fangled side.
The koji rice is Gohyakumangoku and the kake rice is Hitomebore.
I'm not a big fan of sake brewing, so let's see how it goes! Opening the bottle
The lid is opened with great energy, and the aroma is sweet and pleasant.
The taste is not like a sake yeast yeast.
It has a soft sweetness with a little bit of a crunchy texture.
Is it apricot? A little low 14°.
It is a full-scale production!
thanks Yuhzakaya (Sapporo:Makaei) 
みやび♪♪♪♪
It was hard to get (or is it a regional problem?). It is a sake from Kagawa prefecture!
Umami and acidity from the mild aroma! ← See the label on the back w
Wow, it's delicious!
Being a Kagawa sake, I paired it with olives as a snack...
Yum!
I think this has a wine-like quality to it, don't you? I'm just giving you my opinion ← this is just my opinion 😑.
No, it's rice wine ← according to Mrs. W
This quality in a junmai sake? ←Mrs. W marveled
Conclusion...it's delicious! 🤣
The snacks were
Onion crostini (homemade)
boiled maitake mushrooms, prosciutto ham and black olives (homemade)
Tomato bruschetta (homemade)
It was a very delicious dish!
Since it's a Kagawa sake, I went all out on the olives: 🙇♂️ ジェイ&ノビィHi Miyabi 😃
Congratulations on your first Kagawa sake 🎉㊗️
We have only one Kagawa sake 😅 here's our next Kagawa sake 🍶 on our list 🤗. みやびHi Jay & Nobby😊.
Thank you for congratulating ㊗️ ☺️
My wife was drinking this drink with soda water.
She said it was delicious! She said it was delicious!
If you see it, please give it a try! みやび♪♪♪♪♪
Yes, I have had the same thing for years! Yum!
It sounds like the concept is "sake with a sour taste like a lemon", but I speculated from this text: ☺️
Not only sourness, but also umami and aroma, right?
And the conclusion I came up with was "tomato" 😀←What are you talking about?
So, I prepared "tomatoes" and "seafood" as snacks...they go great with tomatoes, don't they? ← No, I know it's total including seasonings, but wow!
And this is easy to drink! It may be a low alcohol content, but the taste is not like sake (sorry if the word is misleading 🥺), so it may be easy to accept for new drinkers.
It's delicious!
Incidentally, it went well with the vegetable-filled keema curry I had prepared for dinner! I wonder if it was the synergy of the sweetness and deliciousness of the vegetables?
Was it good that I made it less spicy? 😅
As for snacks
Mugen tomato salad (homemade)←Refer to Buzz recipe
Nigiri squid (supermarket)
Keema curry full of vegetables (homemade)←It's not a snack but a staple food, right?
It's not a snack but a staple food! ☺️ BunrakuBunraku Reborn Raindrop特別純米原酒生酒無濾過 ぶんずToday is Bunraku at AGEO in Musashikuni!
It was uploaded on the insta of the sake shop, 20 days after it was uploaded.
I visited the store hoping to get it and I got it!
Yes👍I'm glad I bought it!
The acidity and sweetness melt in your mouth,
It is a good sake.
It is a good sake.
Sara is Chitose and Bunraku is Maei.
I must run to them when I find them!

Slightly sweet grapefruit-like topfeel
The same gentle aroma as on the top, the rich rice flavor and sweetness spreads with beautiful acidity and gasiness, and it finishes with a soft bitterness.
The overall impression is calm with a beautiful balance that leans toward modernity. It goes well with meals and is of course delicious on its own.
It went well with sauteed pork and garlic shoots, kipper, and chilled tofu. ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Masaaki Sapporo 😃.
I've been wanting to buy a bottle of this one! It's cool and I've been wanting to get one 😍 but I've been missing out 🥲The pichiswa bitter sharpness looks delicious 😋It would go well with a full meal too ‼️ Masaaki SapporoGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😃It was a sake with just the right amount of sweetness that I want to repeat ✨It's still morning and I'm looking forward to more tonight 😋. さけランGood evening, M.Sapporo!

Shupon when opened
Moderate gassiness
Slight melon and grape-like overtones
The same fruity aroma as the first sip, the aroma of rice malt, the full flavor and sweetness of rice, and the subtle gasiness and fine acidity spread out with a whiff of gas and fine acidity.
It has a good balance of richness, sweetness and umami, and finishes gently, leaving a pleasant aftertaste in the second half. It is easy to pair with meals, and is also delicious on its own.
It goes well with snow crab (from Kushiro), which was extremely inexpensive for its size, fried chicken from Nakasatsunai, and fried white meat.
It also went well with aqua pazza using anglerfish. ジェイ&ノビィHi Masaaki Sapporo 😃
This looks like a delicious review😊There are so many different kinds of purple space, it's hard to decide which one to drink 🤗.
But a big snow crab 🦀 for less than 1000 yen 😳I'm jealous 😋. Masaaki SapporoJay & Nobby, good evening 🌛The purple space was delicious, but it's rare to find a Hokkaido snow crab of this size for 980 yen even here 😅The meat and crab miso was normally packed and delicious 😋.

There is a slight green apple-like overtone at the back of the rice malt.
The same aroma as the topping, rather firm rice flavor and soft sweetness spreads pichijuwatto with apple-like acidity, leaving a lingering sweetness and a mildly bitter, sharp finish.
The umami of rice can be felt well for its 13% alcohol content, but the acidity that rises from the mid-part of the bottle and the bitterness of the second half give it a refreshing impression. It goes well with meals and is also delicious on its own.
It went well with a recipe from "Boys' Gohan" (a Japanese cooking program for men): braised sea bream, stewed beef tendon, octopus macaroni salad, and oyster and egg soup.
It also went well with the mysterious salami that Mr. Funau, a mountain guide, gave me as a souvenir from Chamonix. みやび♪♪♪♪♪
It is a purple space following a clear sky!
I had done the foolish thing (I let my instincts get the better of me) of going to the liquor store to buy a different brand of purple space the last two times I went to buy purple space!
It's called Strawberry Label, but to be honest, I'm being pulled in.
Impressions are amazing, aren't they?
I am pulled to "Strawberry" by appearance and hearing.
But you know, they are fruity and delicious! And they cut them neatly! ←It's just my subjective opinion.
Delicious! みやび♪♪♪♪♪
I don't have any particular event w
It's a sunny day! ←Who's?
Oh no, is it also delicious?
Sweet, tasty, and sharp (refreshing)!
It's my favorite drink. w
It is brewed with comet, but I also love sake brewed with this rice.
Today's snack is...
Stewed pork cubes (homemade)
Bonito tataki (handmade)
Namenro of bonito (handmade)
Sasa-kamaboko topped with pickled wasabi (handmade) So what?) ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Miyabi 😃.
Congratulations on your first appearance in sunny 🌸 & your first Tochigi sake ㊗️ 🎉It's perfect for homemade and handmade entrée 🤗. みやびGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It was indeed my first Tochigi sake! Thanks 😊
Sometimes you have to cut corners, right?
I'll have less time to drink w ← there? RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
