It's been a long time since I've been in Shinomine.
It has a pleasantly refreshing acidity, but the rice flavor comes through in the nose, and the bitterness spreads on the back of the mouth.
It is a delicious sake that you will never get tired of drinking!

たかさん
This is the first label I have seen, and I bought it on the recommendation of the owner.
Association No. 8 yeast, Hachitan-Nishiki, 80% polished
It is a triple-eight!
The aroma is a bit like that of old-fashioned sake,
When you drink it, you can feel the sweetness and umami of the rice!
The bitter taste is followed by a dry finish.
This is a delicious sake!

It has been a long time since I have been in Shinomine.
The aroma is subdued, but sweet with a hint of rice.
When you take a sip..,
"What? I thought this was super spicy, didn't I?"
You can feel the sweetness of the rice as well as the aroma.
When you drink it with a meal
The aftertaste is acidity and a moderate bitterness that lingers in the back of the tongue.
It was definitely dry.
It is a delicious sake.

This is a new sake from Akizuka.
The aroma is subdued.
When you drink it, the first thing that hits you is the acidity.
It has a very dry, crisp mouthfeel.
It goes perfectly with oseki-style dishes!
It is a delicious sake.

It is a first guess fall deer.
I bought it without hesitation when I saw the label for the first time.
The label was a first for me, but I had no hesitation in buying it.
When I opened the bottle, there was a slight alcohol smell that I did not mind, but it was a nice rice-like aroma.
When you drink it, the aroma of rice escapes into your nose.
It has a tangy acidity and a moderate bitterness that lingers at the back of the tongue and wears off.
The aftertaste is medium dry, with just a hint of alcohol remaining.
You can't help but reach for the next sip.
It is a delicious sake!

It is hiyaoroshi from Akishika.
It is so delicious again this year!
This is the sake that got me hooked on sake.
The aroma is slightly fruity.
When you drink it, you will feel the sweetness of rice and the acidity that numbs your tongue 🌾.
You do not feel any alcohol.
The aftertaste is clean and leaves a dry sharpness.
During my 7 years in Tokyo, I never saw Aki-Rika, but since returning to Osaka, I often see it at liquor stores and izakaya (Japanese style pubs). It is one of the things that makes me feel that I am back in Osaka.

Sake bought on a liquor store tour with Rafa papa and Nemuchi (7)
Takama Sake Shop in Ibaraki. I knew it existed, but it was far from the station, so thanks to Rafa papa, I was able to visit this time.
I think many people know them as a distributor of Genmai, but I got the impression from their website that they seem to have a strong habit, but when I went there, it was not so bad 😁.
They carry Akiga, Kawanakajima, Taiyo, Furozumi, Shinomine, Mutou, Takaten, Katanozakura, etc.
They also seem to carry Iwashimizu, but the website says they are all out of stock.
The website seems to indicate that they have had some minor Nagano sake in stock in the past. If I have good access, I'd like to check this store regularly.
I found out about this brand for the first time at the store. I had to buy it 🤣.
I was actually interested in the Genmai Omachi Shiboritate and Special Honjozo set 😅.
Low alcohol sake made with Nagano R yeast. Condensed fruity sweet-tartness. Refreshing sweet and sour sake. This label is called Mie Special and seems to be the toji's special sake. There seem to be other kinds of sake.
This one also has a 9 ticks rice polishing ratio 😁.

It's true that the store looks very brave to enter for the first time 😅.
It takes courage to enter for the first time 😅.
And here we have 9 ticks 😆.

Hello Choroki 😊
If I was alone I might not have had the courage to go in 😅.
I'm so lazy that I sometimes come to the front of the liquor store and leave without going in😅.
I got in the habit of looking at the rice polishing ratio when I buy Nagano sake🤣.

Hello bouken, ☀️
I read it the same way as Manta 🤣There are many delicious looking Nagano sake, and the fact that you bought this one is typical bouken 👍The store owner might have been surprised that 3 people came to his store 😁.

Good evening Rafa😊.
The store looked more like a long-established Japanese sweets shop than a liquor store 😁I was relieved to see that the owner seemed like a nice guy😅.
It seems this is the only place in the Kansai area 🤔.

Good evening, bouken 🌇.
It's hard to go into a restaurant that looks peculiar 😅.
In that sense, going with someone you know is a relief 🤗
Did you not buy the "Ale⁉️ Genshiryoku Mai" ❓

Good evening, Mr. Chichi 😃.
It's hard to be brave just to go to a store for the first time, but it's even harder when you go into a habit 🤣It was reassuring that there was someone who had experience visiting 🤗I went through with the intention of buying Genmai at another liquor store, but I couldn't go there 😭.

I bought a bottle of Mutabu at Takama, but I didn't drink it because it was twisted 😭 it's going to a cooking sake...

Rafa, when was the production date?

It was March 22. I don't think it's old enough to twist...

The Machida brewery I bought it from was in Feb 22 and I could drink it normally 😅maybe it depends on the quality of the sake 😢.
