The mature aroma and flavor are tremendous. It is this year's nouveau, and yes, it is as sour as the label says! Is sourness a scene of Yoshino? I want to go there.

Certainly dry. When buying at the store, I was told that afri, which is read as "afri," is basically sweet, but this is the only one that is different.
I was told that this is the only one that is different from the other ones. I like dry wines, so this one is fine. The aroma is fruity....................

One of the recommended products for August that I bought at Yamauchiya is "Midsummer Fruits," even though summer is already over.
This is a new sake brewed in summer. The toji (master brewer) is pictured here wearing an aloha as proof of this! He must be a fan of Southern music, considering the name of the sake.
There is no shortage of stories about this bottle, including the Aloha method tag, the use of a never-before-heard-of high-yield Akihikari variety, and the use of yeast derived from Princess Michiko, a rose associated with the Empress Kamihito.
Kamishin Shuzo is a brewery located in Yorishima, Okayama Prefecture, a port town overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. As you can see, it is full of fruitiness, and it is the type of sake that you can easily enjoy. Since it is a draft sake, it was of course served cold, but I got the impression that its sweetness and flavor were enhanced when it was a little cooler than when it was freshly refrigerated.

A liquor store that I had developed in the neighborhood happened to be a special distributor of Nabeshima, and I purchased a bottle of Aiyama Junmai Sake.
Aiyama seems to be an excellent variety, called the diamond of sake rice.
Tomikuchiyo Shuzo is a sake brewery located in an inn town overlooking the Ariake Sea. This Nabeshima is a little sweet, but as it is a CLASSIC type, it has a mild taste that you will never get tired of drinking.

The brand name didn't come up. I had heard of it, but this was my first time buying it. The aroma was so unique that for a moment I flinched, but when I drank it, it was surprisingly orthodox. What is this smoky aroma?

I bought it because it was extremely hot and I needed to cool off. The price is quite cheap compared to other brands in the area, perhaps because of its name value? It may be because of its name value, but it is a refreshing bottle of summer sake.

I had been wanting to try some sake from the Niida family for some time, and the refreshing 🐸 label. I had no choice but to buy it.
It was full of the freshness of summer sake. This is delicious without any price tag.

I am glad that the brand name does not appear, and on the contrary, it is rare. The selection criterion was the name of the place, Nakatsugawa. There is a slight connection. The aroma is strong and surprising, but the taste is mellow. I will drink it slowly with a high alcohol content.

I was determined to buy a bottle this year, but the space in the fridge got to me 🐤 and I ended up buying a four-pack 🥹.
I started with cold sake.
The first aroma is creamy and sweet with a hint of acidity.
The first sip has a creamy sweet aroma with a slight acidity.
It was also served warmed.
The first aroma is sweet with a hint of acidity.
The acidity in the mouth makes it more sharp and sharp.
It's hard to say which is better 🤔.
Tsurunori is delicious again this year 😊.

It was the first rainy night in a long time.
I thought it might ease the dryness a bit, but not so much. The sake felt a little dry to the touch. When the bottle was opened, the ginjo aroma was not so strong, and it was a little sharp. Let's wait a little.

Elegant and juicy♩This is definitely a delicious sake for those who like sweet sake. It has a fresh, fruity sweetness, perhaps a bit like melon, to give an example. The taste is not only fresh, but also rich and complex. It also has acidity and a fruity, tingling sensation on the tongue!
According to the back of the label, Tenmei Leap No. 4 is made once every four years using ethyl caproate yeast with a gorgeous aroma, which is not usually used, and Yamada Nishiki, a type of yeast with a gorgeous aroma, to produce a sake that is both gorgeous and sweet. It is said to have a gorgeous, rich, and sweet sake quality, which is exactly what it is!
This is the first batch. The second batch will be a "Nakadori Leap Go" and the third batch will be a "Hi-ire Leap Go," a special standard sake, to follow!

Thank you for your comment, Kotori! It was very tasty, so if you are a sweet-tooth, I recommend you to buy it when you see it. I used to eat it when I was a little girl when we parted, and I watched the cartoon with nostalgia.

Stylish rosé-colored Junmai-shu. Woodiness behind the slightly sour smell! The sweetness itself felt like that of junmai sake, but with the glaze of a Western-style sake. I think this is because the flavor of oak barrels has been transferred well. Still, it has a surprisingly light acidity that gives the impression of being refreshing, but is also very drinkable. A very good balance! It is different from the image of sake, but it is also delicious!

Aromatic sake future! It has a rich flavor and umami. It is full-bodied and has a long aftertaste. It stimulates the tongue with just a light piquancy. It has a strong self-assertive image, and shines brightly enough on its own without any accompaniments. I think I have a preconceived notion, but it tastes like a "good sake.

Fresh sweetness! It felt like a beautiful Yamada-Nishiki. Although the alcohol content is a little high at 16 ° C, it has a drinkability that lingers. É It has a very slight carbonation, and the aftertaste is a little different from sharp, but the aftertaste is short. It was a very tasty saké!
