🌸"Kudokibe Junmai Daiginjo"✨ This is a special limited edition sake from Hasegawa Sake Shop! First, pour it into a glass and you'll be entranced by its clear, transparent color 👀✨✨. As you approach the aroma, a gorgeous sweet aroma reminiscent of ripe strawberries 🍓 spreads softly. As soon as you take a sip, the juicy, muscat-like flavor bursts onto your tongue, leaving a light yet profound aftertaste...it was truly a "sake that tastes like fruit" 😋. What was even more surprising was about the rice used for this sake, Kokuryo Miyako. Kokuryo Miyako was grown all over Kyushu before World War II, but it was labor intensive to cultivate and had the disadvantage of being tall and prone to fall over. As a result, it gradually disappeared and became a "phantom rice" that only remains in records. However! With the cooperation of local farmers, the rice miraculously made a comeback from only 12 grains of seed rice 🌱✨. The rice was so honored that it was chosen as the rice offering for the Emperor Showa's accession to the throne, and to think that it has been revived in the modern age and delivered to us as sake... it is deeply moving 🥹. As the name of the brand "Kudokibe" suggests, it has a gentle and fruity feel on the palate, and I found myself being drawn to it more and more.

I went to CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills the other day! And... the 7th drink 👀✨ The first day I attended the event, we were treated to a special event by Shinmasa Sake Brewery 《🟣紫八咫🐦‍⬛》🍶! What a surprise, the sake they had prepared for the event had sold out, so they offered us this precious cup as a special quota 🥹 A true surprise gift. The freshness of the sake spreads in the mouth, followed by a rich, luxurious sweetness that envelops the tongue. The deep flavor and aroma combine to create a blissful experience that lingers for a while after you finish the drink...✨. Thank you so much, President Yusuke! It was the perfect drink to end the day 😋.

I went to CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills the other day! And... the 6th drink 👀✨ This time I was served 《Sando Kako x Yamadanishiki》. When you put it in your mouth, you first feel a refreshing fizzy sensation, which is followed by a nutty aroma. It was like a duet of flavors, very unique 🍶. The soft sweetness of the Kako and the umami of the Yamadanishiki combine perfectly for a clean aftertaste. The lingering aroma lingered for a long time, and it was so delicious that I kept reaching for another sip 😋.

I went to CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills the other day! And... the 5th drink 👀✨ I was served 《Kafuda Sake Sake Mirai》. From the moment I held the glass, I was entranced by the aroma that rose up. The fresh and gorgeous sweetness spreads in the mouth with a fizzy and bubbly sensation 🍶. The more you drink, the clearer and juicier it becomes, just like a fruit. It was gorgeous but not too heavy, and was so delicious that you could enjoy it as many times as you wanted...!

I went to CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills the other day! And... the 4th drink 👀! I was served Shinmasa No.6🍶. When you put the glass close to the glass, you can smell the slight aroma of wooden vats, which gives you a nostalgic feeling. In the mouth, a refreshing rummy flavor spreads along with the sip... this is delicious 😋. The sweetness is moderate, yet gorgeous, and the sharpness is good, so it fills you up quickly. The clear, transparent flavor typical of No. 6, combined with the heat of the venue, lifted my spirits to new heights ✨. No matter how many times I drink it, Niimasa is still special.

I went to UTAGE 2025 this past March!
A little time has passed, but I'm looking back and posting as I remember 🍶. And the last one I had was... SILVER 7✨ It had a refined and well-balanced flavor, perfect for a drink to end the UTAGE. The gentle sweet aroma rose softly from the glass, and the natural sweetness spread in the mouth, giving the drink a comforting feeling as if it were easily absorbed into the body 😋 It was a bottle that was easy to drink with no quirks, but also had a solid core. Among the unique lineup, this sake was the reason I was able to enjoy it comfortably until the end.
Once again, UTAGE was great. I want to go back next year!

I went to UTAGE 2025 this March! Shinsei: An Introduction to Farmer's Art This bottle of sake is brewed with "Rikuu 132", a classical sake rice that originated in Akita in the Taisho era. Moreover, it is made with special Rikuwa rice grown in Shinsei Brewery's own rice fields in Uyo, a pesticide-free sake rice hometown, making it truly a "sake with a story. The taste was very elegant and luxurious, with a coexistence of rice flavor and transparency. The taste was classical, but with a refined, modern sensibility that really left a lasting impression.

It has a nice sweetness and a crisp aftertaste...it was a hit with everyone 😋! Not too flashy, but perfectly balanced to leave a lasting impression. It was the type of sake that is easy to drink and makes you want another glass.

I went to UTAGE 2025 in March this year! I've been saying that I've been to UTAGE 2025 this past March, but I forgot to update this 💦. The second drink I had was Tenzan Sparkling 🍶✨. It had a pleasantly fizzy, dry and crisp taste. The sweetness was subdued and the umami flavor was well expressed in this bottle. Overall, it has a refreshing taste and seems to go well with a meal. It gave the impression of an adult sparkling wine that is not too glamorous, and gave me the perfect rhythm for the second glass 😋.

I visited CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills the other day! First of all, the second drink 👀! I had... Shinmasa Yonotori✨. The aroma of the wooden vat that spreads in your mouth is very pleasant, and the gentle sweetness is combined with it... really delicious 😋. It is not too acidic or peculiar, and has a mild and gentle taste. It had a polite and core flavor, just like a "Yonotori". It is a bottle that makes you want to savor it carefully, with its individuality and yet gentle and easy-going taste. The second cup already left me with a deep sense of satisfaction...!

I recently visited CRAFT SAKE WEEK @ Roppongi Hills 🍶✨. The first sake we chose was... SANDO Kako Bespoke! I was excited from the moment I held the glass in my hand. The soft sweetness typical of Yamada-Nishiki and a pleasantly effervescent feeling, with a soft flavor derived from Kako (?). The soft and fluffy flavor from the Kago (or is it from Kago?) accents the taste and it is very tasty. It was a hit from the very first glass, and the tension went through the roof!

Kame-no-o Junmai Daiginjyo 🍶📮Luggage tag sake When poured into a glass, it has a very beautiful clear and transparent color. The aroma is fresh and cool, and the anticipation is high even before you drink it. In the mouth, an elegant sweetness like honey spreads softly, followed by a slight bitterness... the balance is exquisite. The aroma, sweetness, and bitterness are not overly assertive, but are nicely integrated and very easy to drink. While it has the fullness that is typical of Kame-no-o, it is overall light and goes in easily.

❄️Hana no Koka Yukihana❄️ When poured into a glass, the soft cloudiness and thick texture unique to ogara-mi are impressive. The aroma is subtly sweet, and although it is subdued, it is somehow soothing and gentle. When you put it in your mouth... the bubbly and sweet taste spreads at once, and the fresh and lush aroma, like that of a melon, explodes at once🍈✨. This is a bit of a shock level of deliciousness 😋. The balance of thickness, gasiness, aroma, and sweetness is exquisite, and the taste is sophisticated and different from just a "sweet" taste. It was a perfect treat for me.

Respect for the Wind Forest Mid-Mining No. 6, 2024🍶. This year's tag is "stamped leather"✨! It has a luxurious feel even before you open it, and just holding it in your hand will make you feel good. When poured into a glass, it has a beautiful, clear color. The aroma is clean and subdued, quietly welcoming the drinker. In the mouth, a gentle sweetness spreads with a pleasant effervescence, followed by a slight bitterness...you will be enchanted by its good balance. I look forward to this series every year. This year, too, the taste did not betray my expectations. It is a bottle with a long aftertaste that conveys that it was carefully crafted 🌿.

🌸Hana-no-Kou Sakurabana🌸 This is one that I was attracted to from the name. The color is clear and transparent. The aroma is subdued, but the moment you take a glass to your mouth, the sweetness spreads softly and gently... The refreshing and delicate taste made me let out an unintentional "delicious..." 😋✨. Not too gorgeous, but elegant enough to leave a lasting impression. It is the kind of sake that can be drunk with a meal or just to accompany a casual evening. This is a sakura sake that you will want to drink all year round, not just in the spring.

🌿Filland Nama Sake 🍶. Soft and beautiful from the outside with a gentle cloudiness with a hint of a hint of ogiri ✨. When you put your glass close to it, you can smell the gorgeous fruity aroma, almost like lychee 🍈. The gentle sweetness on the palate and the slight carbonation that lingers on the tongue is irresistibly pleasant 😋... The taste is delicate, yet has a strong character, and it seems to seep into your body. It was exactly the kind of "natural yet impressive" nama-zake that is so modern. I will definitely repeat this...!

🃏 Fei Lan BLACKJACK🍶 The color is slightly cloudy. It has a fresh melon-like aroma and a tangy, refreshing aftertaste. The contrast was addictive and delicious! And...I've heard that it is recommended to be mixed with soda, so I'm excited to try it with soda next time 🥂. The label is unique, and as the name suggests, this bottle is a bit playful. It is easy to get into even for sake beginners, yet still has a strong personality. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy a "modern" sake!

Hazy Moon🌕Kangiku The cloudy color of this ogara-mi is a perfect match for the "Hazy" moonlit night. When you approach the glass, the fresh and gentle melon-like aroma spreads softly 🍈✨. The palate has a slight sweetness, followed by an impressive lingering bitter aftertaste. This balance of sweetness and bitterness is a taste that is "Kangiku-like". It is not only gorgeous and easy to drink, but also has a depth that makes it addictive. This is a bottle to enjoy quietly while watching the moon.
