Unknown Sake 4

???

Don't even remember drinking this one. Anyone know the brewery?

Super Cup

?

Cup of sake bought in Japan. Strong alcohol taste with a melon aftertaste. Alcohol mellows out when temperature warms.

O

Ginjo

Very watery, very dry. After initial taste very strong alcohol. Cup of sake bought in japan. I think the "O" is actually a grain of rice so if anyone can tell me the brewery they would be great.

Unknown Sake 3

Junmai?

Not sure, I think a junmai with a strong alcohol taste. A bit dry with a alcohol aftertaste. Clear. Not bad but not a huge fan of dry. Hint of melon. Cup of sake bought in japan. If anyone can read the bottle please let me know the brewery.

Hanshin Tigers Sake

Junmai

Melon taste. Very smooth with a nice even alcohol taste. Surprised of quality considering when I bought it in Japan I thought it was more of a novelty.

Unknown Sake 2


Junmai ginjo 

Sweet melon smell. Smooth with little alcohol taste. One of the best, 5 stars. Purchased in Kyoto. If anyone can read the brewery name please post in comments.

Tamanohikari

Junmai ginjo 

Tamanohikari Sake Brewing Corp in Kyoto. Pours a light gold color. Smooth, sweet, and very delicious. Website is sake.com. This is one of the best! Sweet melon. Barley taste alcohol. So sad I don't have anymore.

Japanese Scotch


Single Malt

From Suntory.  Not great.  I made the whisky face after every sip.  Doesn't compare to a nice UK $30-50 bottle.  Sorry! 

Shoutoku Syuzo



Junmai ginjo

From Shoutoku brewery Co. in Kyoto, Japan. Pours lite yellow. Strong alcohol but mellows out. Hint of melon. Very very dry. Not bad but wouldn't buy again

Unknown Junmai Daiginjo



Junmai Daiginjo

Pours mostly clear just a hint of yellow. Very sweet melon. Strong alchohol for first few sips but mellows out. Tasty but my hair wasn't blown back. Purchased in Kyoto Japan. If someone can read the bottle and give me the name of the brewery that would rule!
