Senkin's zodiac sign bottle, stocked by Mimasu Sake Shop. This year's bottle features a cute snowman on a wooden horse. It has a fresh and sweet top nose, like a yogurt drink or white peaches. There is a slight gassy feeling on the tongue, and after the sweetness of kijo sake, the acidity and bitterness give it a nice crisp aftertaste that is not too sweet.

The second sake of the New Year was a zodiac bottle of Hiran, purchased online from Hamadaya Sake Shop in Oamishirasato, Chiba Prefecture. This time it was brewed at Aizan. The top aroma is mildly lemony and refreshing, with a pleasant slight effervescence on the palate. The taste is sweet like white peaches and bananas, followed by bitterness. Clean and refreshing aftertaste. Delicious!

Happy New Year! I hope to continue to enjoy drinking at a leisurely pace this year. I look forward to working with you again this year! The first sake of the new year is a zodiac sign bottle of Hakurakusei. It has gold leaf and a very cool bottle design. The aroma is mild, and the taste is delicious, with a delicious rice flavor that does not interfere with Osechi dishes or sashimi. It is very tasty and makes you want to drink more.

Happy New Year, Jyunichi 🎍. Hakurakusei's zodiac sign bottle is so cool 🐴. It's just the concept of ultimate food sake that makes osechi and sashimi taste so good 😋.

Happy New Year, soumacho 🌅 and all the best for the new year 🙇. I have been buying Hakurakusei since last year's zodiac bottle and enjoy the New Year's feeling with gold leaf in it. I can understand why it is called the ultimate food sake.

This old sake is a blend of 31-, 23-, and 15-year aged sake from Shinkame Shuzo. The color is amber, and the top aroma is deeply caramel-like. The taste is not too peculiar, with a slight hint of mild, non-toxic acidity. It is best enjoyed cold and sipped slowly.

UA Snowman, purchased at Mimasu Sake Shop, is an assemblage of four different types of sake. When the bottle was opened, lees danced in the bottle like a snow globe, which was beautiful. The top aroma was sweet and sour like yogurt. After the sweetness spreads to the palate, there is a fizzy and bitter taste, and it disappears quickly and sharply.

This is a bottle that I won in a drawing at Mimasu Sake Brewery, with whom I started doing business this year. I had been planning to open it at the end of the year, and opened the bottle with full anticipation. When I opened the bottle, it fizzed energetically, and I opened and closed the bottle several times. The top aroma was milky sweet. After the sweetness is felt, bitterness follows, and the aftertaste is smooth. Although the alcohol content is a little high at 15.5 ºC, it has a delicious flavor that will keep you coming back for more.

*This is a craft saké submission, not sake. This bottle arrived in this month's subs (Mimasu Club) from Mimasu Sake Brewery. It was brewed to celebrate the marriage of craft gin distiller Ayumu Yamaguchi. They use gin distillation residue as one of the ingredients. It tastes refreshing when mixed with tonic water.

The top aroma is a strong sense of acidity derived from the sake brewing process. In the mouth, the acidity comes first, followed by the juicy rice flavor. The taste is juicy, yet crisp, and it cuts through the palate with ease. I really like sake made from Akita Sake Komachi rice, and this brand is also delicious.

Mimuro Sugi is one of my favorite brands. This is the first time I have had a light nigori. The top aroma is modest, but the taste in the mouth is delicious, with a sweetness like that of ramune. It is full of gas and has a pleasant aftertaste that cuts through quickly. It is also delicious 😋.

A light nigori version of Urasato brewed by a young genius Touji, Chikara Urasato. It was kept in storage for enjoyment, but was opened today. The nose has a sweet and sour fruity aroma with a hint of citrus. On the palate, it has a gassy, gusty, shrieky sensation, with a green melon-like sweetness and a slight bitterness. Very tasty 😋.

This year, for the first time, I tried a 39 from Kangiku Meikozo, a sake brewery that is the pride of Chiba Prefecture, where my parents live. The aroma is subdued, but in the mouth it tastes like juicy, sweet pineapple. It is crisp and not at all sweet. The moderate gasiness is also pleasant. It is very tasty!

This is one that I have been interested in for a while. I was able to buy it this year. The aroma is subdued, yet sweet. In the mouth, a milky sweetness with a sense of grain comes first, followed by a gas-derived chouxiness, and then a finish that cuts through with a slight bitterness. The illustration on the label is also nice.

This year again, we receive Senkou Yukidaruma, a seasonal winter sake. It was purchased at Mimasu Sake Shop, a liquor store that has been very helpful to us recently. We started with the supernatant. It has a sweet aroma like white peaches, carbonation, and a sweet and sour taste. When mixed with ori, it is milky, but has a bitter taste at the end and a very nice sharpness. It is easy to see why it is so popular, and I love the taste!

This month's sake from Mimasu Sake Shop Subs and Mimasu Club. Hiraizumi Yamahai Junmai 3-year aged sake. According to the brewer, he recommends drinking it in a flat sake cup, and it certainly has a different flavor over time. It is a classic sake and would be delicious heated.
