Manazuru純米大吟釀 美山錦
ひでさん
This is the first sake of the year. I went to Sendai station at the end of the year and bought this sake because it was sold at many stores. It is a slightly spicy and sour sake with a sweet sake-like aroma. I first drank it at room temperature, but the spiciness and acidity became stronger when it was heated.

Strangely enough, being wrapped in newspaper makes me want to buy it. Various words were lined up and I bought it.
I first felt the sourness and then the umami.
Many things happened suddenly today, but I am thankful to God and everyone for allowing me to drink sake at home as usual.
I hope to be able to enjoy drinking sake again tomorrow.

This is a special pure rice sake made using the traditional Kimotozukuri method, which has now become the signature product of Manazuru. It is a traditional autumn sake (similar to hiyaoroshi) that expresses the original richness and flavor of a traditional men's sake. The rice is Miyamanishiki, the prefecture's best rice for sake brewing, and the taste is characterized by dryness and firm acidity.

Japanese people are fond of living things. Japanese people are fond of living creatures. Names of alcoholic beverages include dragons, tigers, dragonflies, cicadas, butterflies, and so on. As an aside, it is said that only in Japan do people love insects. In addition, plants such as chrysanthemums and cherry blossoms are also used in sake names. Among these, cranes and turtles are often used as symbols of happiness, but cranes seem to be used more often than turtles. And the individual name "Manazuru. This is wonderful.
The name alone is wonderful, but the sake is also very authentic. It has a mellow mouthfeel and a delicious fall flavor. It is even better when heated. It has more sweetness and more umami. It is a perfect match for autumnal delicacies. It also has the crispness typical of Miyamanishiki.
By the way, cranes are the king, Hakutsuru, Kamotsuru, Kagatsuru, and many others come to mind, but turtles are Kamerei, Kameizumi, Kame-no-umi, and others.

Hi WOM 🐦.
I thought there might be a lot of turtles, but when you put it that way, cranes come out more 😆.
Turtle, turtle... new turtle and first turtle!

Good evening, WOM 😃.
Yes! It seems that Japan is the only country that keeps insects!
And you're right 🤔I can't think of any sake 🍶 with a turtle attached to it... except for Pon-chan's addition 🧐.

Thanks Pon, 😊Chappie told me that there are 122 cases of cranes and more than 10 cases of turtles. Is the reason for this difference because of their position in the story, e.g., crane's position in the story, turtle in Urashima Taro, etc.? The swamp seems to be getting deeper. There were both river cranes and river turtles.

Thanks, Jay & Nobby! Ace Senkou in Tochigi is also a crane. In the cranes vs. tortoises, are cranes the best in number? There are also Hakutsuru and Sawanotsuru, cranes in quantity? There are many ways to enjoy sake, including insects, and I feel like I've found another swamp. Oh, there is the legendary Kamikame.

It has a gorgeous but rather classic aroma and taste.
It is about half sweet and half spicy, with a hint of umami.
Although it is a daiginjo, it seems to be good even when heated.

Since we had a series of aged sake, we decided to go with this one today.
I bought it at a hotel store in Minamisanriku in July. It was wrapped in newspaper. When I opened the package today, I found the inside was normal.
It was a delicious sake with a soft taste.

2025/6/17-6/19, there is an event called [Gurutonami Chigasaki 2025] and we are going to an event where we can enjoy our first izakaya or snack bar.
It's a good plan to explore new restaurants 🤗.
It has almost no aroma, but I think it is a sharp and dry sake with sourness and bitterness on the palate.
