やっぱり酒がすき
I thought it would be better served cold because it is unfiltered raw sake, but the bitterness was strong and not so good.
It tastes better when heated!
But I prefer Kannon Shita.
Next time, I would like to try a hi-ire honjozo.

A bottle that had been sitting in the refrigerator since I bought it in 2021 at the Yukiguni Shuho Kanazawa-ya Sake Brewery.
Finally opened the bottle.
Ishikawa's 🍶, first time for me.
It is a junmai, unfiltered, raw sake brewed by the Naohiko Noguchi Sake Brewery.
The rice used is
100% Gohyakumangoku rice from the Matsudo district of Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
Rice polishing ratio is 60
Alcohol content is 18%.
Bottling date: November 2020
Shipping date: September 2021
The following is a summary of my impressions of the aroma and taste, although I cannot deny that they are a bit twisted due to the fact that the bottle was put to sleep.
The aroma when the bottle is opened is a gentle floral aroma.
When poured into the sake cup, it has a smooth, almost transparent, slightly yellowish flavor.
When you take a sip, despite the gentle aroma, it has a distinctly strong attack in the mouth.
A light, gentle sweetness spreads in the mouth along with a smooth umami from the aging process.
The taste is rather light and delicate, and disappears quickly after swallowing.
While the depth of flavor is felt, a light lingering aftertaste is left.
Personally, I like to drink it chilled, but the closer it gets to room temperature, the more pronounced the umami and sweetness become. I think it is better to drink it by itself to enjoy the changes 😁.

Brand names you have been wondering about
Kannon-shita - Kanagaso - the name of the place where the Naohiko Noguchi Institute is located.
The aroma has a strong acidity 🍌.
The mouthfeel is clean and refreshing, yet the taste is deep and complex with a sweetness that is unique to aged sake,
The taste is clean and refreshing, but with a complex sweetness that is unique to matured sake.
The aftertaste is tangy and dry, and although the alcohol content is 20
It is surprisingly drinkable!
I really liked the deep sweet aroma that lingers in the nose☺.
I enjoyed it with Chinese food.

Next, a recommendation from the store
Naohiko Noguchi's lineup of about 10 different types of four-pack bottles, even though it is in Fukuoka.
We ordered a bottle of Naohiko Noguchi Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake and drank it together (although I think I drank about half of it 🤣).
A little sourness
Fresh and refreshing
Slightly bitter and a little complex?
I asked for a bottle and some people drank it. Everyone who drank it said it was delicious.
My son's daughter-in-law's sister's husband is American. He liked it too🥳.
Yobuko squid, I've never seen anything like it 🦑.
It was delicious 😋.

The squid in Yobuko was fresh and delicious with salt 🥳.

This is Aizan.
The aroma is subdued. Nuts are faint.
The alcohol content is 19 degrees. It has a strong flavor, but it is also sour and not too sweet! Since the alcohol content is 19%, the aftertaste is spicy.
Somehow, the images of Omachi and Aizan are opposite.

This one was purchased at a stand bar at Kanazawa station.
I decided to drink the Gohyakumangoku, so I bought a small bottle of Yamahai as a souvenir. I wanted at least 1 gou of Yamahai.
It's aluzome, isn't it? The alcohol content is 18 degrees Celsius. Omachi.
The aroma is dairy-like. It smells like cheese. Then there are nuts. Quite sweet.

The first time I visited Mr. Noguchi's stand bar at Kanazawa station.
This is a bottle I bought at a liquor store in Omimachi Market before that. I bought a small 300ml bottle because most of them are expensive.
I heard that 2019 is the year of the rice harvest.
The alcohol content is 19%, so it has a strong alcoholic taste. It also has a slightly savory aroma.
It was made in 2019 or 2020 and bottled in 2024, so it tastes like it has been aged. The color is yellow.
The description of the stand bar described the tingling as a white pepper flavor, and I wonder if this is like that.
The flavor is enhanced when combined with konka.

It has a matured sake-like aroma, a robust flavor, and a deep caramel-like sweetness. However, in the second half, the taste quickly fades away and the sake never gets tired.

Three types of Kanazawa sake to compare at a standing bar in Kanazawa Station. They asked us to drink the three types of sake, from left to right: Nama, Junmai Daiginjo, and Daiginjo. I think 3,000 yen is a bit expensive for this amount of sake. I think I prefer the raw one the best.

Classic type. Impression of solidity. Complex fruity on the palate, with hints of muscat and caramel. The middle taste is full-bodied. Aftertaste is clean.
A solid and tasty sake. A good drink when you want to get drunk at a reasonable price.
