Purchased at Isego Honten
Murayu is a hit-or-miss product, so I asked the store staff which of the two varieties they had.
I asked the shopkeeper about it and chose the sweeter of the two varieties.
I chose the sweeter one.
It is a sweet sake and close to my taste.
But it smells a little bit like sake.
I think it's hard to drink 4 gou of sake, but I will drink it.
Alcohol content 16 degrees
As spring sakes are starting to appear on the line, the second glass is a pink labeled Sairai.
The sourness of the pink label.
It was my first strawberry-flavored sake 🍓.
I couldn't buy it in the store but it was on the corner menu.
Fruity aroma. Fine gasiness, fresh and clear taste. Clear aftertaste from soft water.
Delicious. ☺️ I wanted to buy a four-pack bottle to take home!
It has been a long time since I have had Genshu Mai. It's been a long time since I got this very fantastic sake. It is a ginjo without junmai (pure rice), which I rarely buy. Moreover, it is a raw sake. I wonder what it tastes like.
The aroma is quite mild. There is a faint capsule aroma. No gassiness.
Very gentle sweetness. A shocking marriage with Kaga's specialty, kabura-zushi, which I happened to be eating.
The second half is really beautiful, with no unpleasant alcohol taste and a smooth, gentle finish.
This is the best food wine of the season. It made the meal very flavorful. I recommend the combination of kaburazushi and sake!
This is the first time I have had Gakki's kijoshu, and it is half as sweet and lighter than other kijoshu.
Slightly effervescent, with some oriki remaining.
After the second day, it was easy to drink and a little unsatisfying, but it was definitely delicious.
As it claims to be a modern Yamahai sake, it has no peculiar smell or peculiar sweetness peculiar to Yamahai and is very natural and fresh.
It is easy to drink with its gentle sweetness and low-alcoholic lightness.
It seems to go well with all kinds of food.
I heard that 10 yen will be donated to the disaster area for every purchase...I can only do what I can do, but I wish for the earliest possible recovery.
Noto Earthquake Charity Sake One after another. As a Hokuriku person, I really can't let this earthquake be someone else's problem. Let's actively participate in charity activities.
I drank Hope! once before, but it was not a good image because it was too thin or crisp, but this Hope!
The aroma is the usual muscat with a bit of cemedine, which I like. No gassy feeling.
The sweet and sour comes on, and then the acidity quickly gets stronger. The acidity quickly fades away, leaving a clean, crisp finish.
A stable Sentori. No disappointment.
The Hokuriku Shinkansen will soon open to Tsuruga! Please come to Hokuriku! (There are a lot of delicious sake!)
Jay & Nobby, sorry for the delay in responding! 🙇🏻
I was in bed all three weekends with a fever... 🥲.
Please go on a Hokuriku tour! There are hot springs, seafood, and great sake!
I was curious to buy it because it was featured in dancyu!!!!
They said it was a new entry.
It is a cool sake with an "astringent" taste as the concept says.
The label is stylish.
It has a somewhat unique aroma, mellow and moderately spicy, with a touch of acidity. Above all, it is a milky and silky food sake with a touch of lactic acidity.
I am looking forward to the taste change on the second day.
Spring Sake!
Snow is sprinkling even in the center of Tokyo...come on spring 🌸
Stable Kangiku 🎵
The sweetness and tartness of the sake was kept, but with a refreshing aftertaste.
With tempura of spring vegetables.
Since grapes are the main ingredient, it's no longer something I should post here, but I thought I'd briefly introduce this interesting sake from a craft saké brewery.
This is a strange grape wine that is a bit different from wine. It smells slightly like white wine. That's right.
It is quite dry. But you don't feel much acidity, so it goes down quickly. The lingering sensation is tannin?
I don't know much about wine (sweat), but it was delicious. My wife was also satisfied.
Came down with a cold and stopped drinking for a few days. I still have a headache, but yeah, let's drink.
I got a bottle of Cel-24 nigori (nigori is a type of sake made from a fermented rice wine) without incident this year. This sake has a strong image of being a rambunctious drinker, but it was safely opened in a few minutes.
The aroma is, of course, pineapple🍍. It is already a winner of the Pineapple of the Year award. The gasiness is quite strong.
It is sweet, sour, and completely pineapple soda. It's hard to drink this as a drink.
It's like a juice, but it's very nice and pleasant to drink all the way through. There is no bitterness, and the aftertaste is beautiful.
Well, this is delicious. I think this sake will expand the range of sake! I think it is a really great sake!
We opened a bottle of Shinshu Kamerei, which we have not had for a very long time. It has been about once a year....
As expected, it has a nice aroma. I imagined it to be apple-like, but it gives the impression of grapes. The gasiness is strong.
The sweetness comes first, but it is not at all dry, not harsh, and beautiful. The acidity comes right after the sweetness, so maybe it's the perfect balance.
The acidity continues and finishes pleasantly, without any unpleasant bitterness.
Wow, it is superbly delicious. The reason I haven't had it for a while is not only because of its popularity, but also because I haven't had the guts to go out and buy it. I think I'm going to turn up the heat a bit again.
Another bottle was opened today. Kawanakajima, which I have not had for quite some time since the sake corner at Ikebukuro Seibu was renovated. I have been seeing it at Isego a lot lately, so I bought a bottle of my favorite Huarin.
The gas pressure was so strong that I thought the name of this sake should be "Schwalin. It took 20 minutes to open the bottle....
Gentle and sweet rice aroma. This is it, this is it.
The gentle sweetness precedes and is super pleasant. A refreshing acidity follows.
The sweetness and acidity continue in a fluffy way, and then quickly disappear.
I haven't had it in about two years, but I am happy to say that it is as good as ever. I would like to drink Genmai again, but I doubt I will be able to....
Alcohol consumption mode. Yesterday, a bottle of wine. In addition, opened a bottle of Tanaka's Bubbles.
Mild aroma. Slightly muscat. Quite a strong gassy feeling, taking about 10 minutes to open the bottle.
The sweetness is quite restrained. The acidity is clear, but not too strong.
The acidity quickly fades away, and a light bitterness quickly arrives and finishes.
It is a dry sake suitable for eating. Since we had oden and hot pot for dinner during the three-day weekend, it was a nice choice for me!
