I visited Yajima Sake Shop, which I had often seen on their online store as well as my hobby of eating out (food logs). I reserved this Kaze no Mori in advance and was able to place a hold on it.
This is my first ALPHA6. The sake rice is Akitsuho produced in Tenri, Nara Prefecture. It is made with No. 6 yeast and white malted rice.
It has a melon? or banana-like aroma.
From the soft sweetness to the umami, the sharp and crisp acidity, it's so delicious!
Good morning, ichiro18!
ALPHA6 is delicious 😋.
I'm not a mid-pack drinker, but I had it for the first time last year and it was absolutely delicious 🎵.
I'd like to try the mid-pack one someday 😊.
Good morning, ma-ki-!
Thank you for your comment ✨
I didn't get to drink the ALPHA6 that was released in March, so I guess next year will be the year for me too 😆.
Immediately after opening the bottle, it was fruity, slightly bitter and sharp 🍶, but after 4 days, it became sweeter 🤗.
Personally, I prefer the taste right after opening the bottle 🥰.
Alcohol content: 16%.
Polishing ratio: 60
Moderate aroma, no gassy feeling. When swallowed, you can feel the alcohol that passes through the nose. It is suitable for a mealtime drink and goes down smoothly.
I visited a liquor store after reading about the arrival of a certain sake, but they did not have it in stock, and the mail order stock was still out of stock, so I was not sure if it had really arrived. I was not sure if it was really in stock or not, but I decided to buy the one that was not in stock.
When I opened the bottle, the lees started to dance and the wine was so sharp that I was afraid it would spill over. It was a little dry on the first day, but after the second day, it became juicy and very tasty. I would like to try a less cloudy Mimuro Cedar.
Good evening, freelancer 😃.
Congratulations on your first tank of Mimuro cedar ㊗️ with Hanaquin🫰 bought by proxy 🎉Check here it's just right 😋 and it's clear and tasty too 🤗.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby ^-^.
Thank you! This is a juicy, catchy, schwarzwaldy drink - if you like modernity, I'm sure you'll love it. I've seen some clear ones, too, so I'd like to give it a try.
In the mouth, it has a honey-like sweetness that is quickly overwhelmed by bitterness.
It is a delicious sake that is not too sweet and has a pleasant alcoholic taste.
Alcohol content: 15%.
Rice polishing ratio: 55
Rice: 100% Aizu rice from Fukushima Prefecture, Yumenokou

The clean, refreshing sweetness is refreshingly sweet, like pear🍐 or watermelon🍉.
As is typical for a draft sake, it occasionally tingles on the tongue.
The bitterness seeps out at the end, leaving you with a sigh of relief.
It is a fusion of the Kafuda-shu character and the Hachitan-Nishiki character, and I thought it had both of these characteristics.
Good morning, freelancer first generation man 😄Same timing as yours ❗️Packaged sake is delicious ❣️I've had many different versions and they are all in the expected range for packaged sake. Really, it's a safe sake to buy 🤗.
Maybe it's because I have hay fever🤧 and my throat is rough, but I can feel the sweet taste but very bitter 😭.
It is recommended to drink it right away, but I think I'll wait and see how it goes 😁.
Alcohol content: 15%.
Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki from Kurodasou
Second day after opening the bottle
It was the usual delicious sake with moderate sweetness and moderate bitterness.
It seemed that my taste buds were out of order due to hay fever. 🙇♀️
There is a slight chili sensation on the tip of the tongue. It is sharper and drier than the sake I have been drinking recently. Since the bottle has just been opened, I would like to see how it changes.
Then, even after an interval of a few days, a slight chili sensation. It seemed to get sweeter with each additional glass.
It's a sake shop's bespoke sake 🍶.
Fruity and rich but not too sour 😄.
Last time I had it, I thought it had lost some of its acidity because I let it sit for a year, but I guess that wasn't the case 😅.
Still, it's a very tasty sake 🥰.
I would like to drink this sake again next year😍.
Alcohol content: 15

My usual restaurant in Kashiwa was closed for delivery, so I decided to visit Yajima Sake Shop for the first time in a while. When I checked, it had been almost a year. It seems they have introduced a point application, but I don't come here often... Aside from that, I finally chose a bottle of kafuda sake, which had been on my mind for a long time. The label is too tasteful.
I was scared of what it would taste like, but when I took a sip, I was very satisfied with the acidity and umami that it had to make me drink it. It tasted fresh and light, but it was different from my own light. I would definitely like to try other specs of this brand.
Good evening, first generation freelancer 😃.
Congratulations on your first shipment bill 🏷️ sake ㊗️ 🎉
We haven't been drinking that much either 😅I had a short straw boat once that was very good 🤗.
I'm curious to know where is your usual place in Kashiwa 🤔
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I'm an amateur, so most of the sake is new to me. I had no idea about that sake rice, I'd love to try it!
My usual liquor store is the one I CI the most, though it is often closed...
