The second Dog Day label bottle was a Junmai Ginjo sake from Dewazakura. It was chilled, but the aroma was mild and the taste was clean, fruity and refreshing. It has a nice sharpness and is good as a mid-meal sake.

Purchased through a project by Dewazakura Sake Brewery to have their own dog on the label for Dog Day on November 1. Dewazakura's signature ginjo-shu has a sweet banana-like aroma and a sweet yet refreshing finish on the palate. It is mellow and delicious!

After returning home, I opened a bottle of this year's new Hououmida sake. Nigori (nigori) sake with a mildly sweet aroma and a fresh, white grape-like flavor on the palate. It also has a bitter taste with a crisp and refreshing aftertaste. Delicious 😋.

A little drink at Sobamon in front of Wako-shi Station. I had hiyashi-mame (soybean) and today's tempura (garland chrysanthemum) with morisoba. Tsushimaya is a brand I have never tried before. The aroma and taste are like melon, sweet, fruity, and delicious!

The top aroma is reserved but fruity, like muscat grapes. In the mouth, it is juicy and sweet with a gaseous taste. The finish is crisp and clean. It has a subtle fruity taste.

I drank it last year and liked it so much that I bought it again this year. I was looking forward to drinking Akatombo, which is now made entirely from sake yeast under the slogan "Edo katari" (return to Edo). It has a refreshing citrusy aroma and a strong grapefruit-like acidity on the palate. It would go well with grilled sansanma.

Good evening, Jyunichi 😃.
Red dragonfly looks delicious.
I haven't met you because I can't buy Senkou's seasonal sake in my hometown unless my timing is right 😅.
I've been drinking Wakanami's Akatombo 🍶.

This sake is made by the Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno City, Saitama. It is brewed with sake rice produced in Saitama Prefecture called "sake musashi. In the mouth, it has a juicy flavor with a hint of sweetness and slight bitterness, while the alcohol content can be felt. The sharpness is very good.

We had a sake brewed in Shuwan, a collaboration with Mimuro Cedar, using the traditional methods of Bodhi yeast and wooden vats. The aroma is modest, with a hint of sweetness like that of wasanbon (a type of Japanese sweetener). On the palate, it tastes like pear with a touch of acidity and a gaseous sensation. The complexity of the wooden vat is also apparent, and the sake is deeply enjoyable. The rice used for this sake is Rohafu, a rice produced in Nara Prefecture, and I would like to try another sake made from a different rice, the Bodaihashimo, made from a wooden vat.

For our sake day dinner, we had a bottle of Senkori Classic Oragara-mi. I really wanted to try this bottle because the hi-iru version, Ichi Shiki, was so delicious. The aroma is fruity and milky with a hint of sweetness. It tastes like fresh grapes with a wonderful sweetness and acidity. I still like it.

I happened to see this Noto support sake at a local liquor store, Matsuzaki Shinjuku. It is a collaboration between Tsuruno Shuzo, a Noto sake brewery that was damaged by last year's earthquake, and Tenryohai Sake Brewery on Sado Island in Niigata Prefecture. While the top aroma is modest, the taste on the palate is fruity and beautiful, like muscat. It is not sweet, but rather clean, crisp, and delicious 😋.

This is my first Yamasan. The initial aroma is milky with a hint of sweetness, perhaps due to the light nigori. In the mouth, the sweetness, acidity, and bitterness are well balanced, and the umami of the rice can also be felt.

Toyo Bijin, which had been on my mind for some time and which I had purchased last month, was opened. The aroma was sweet and the taste was pear-like with a refreshing and crisp aftertaste. I had not heard much about this sake rice called Hashu Honor, but it was developed by Takagi Sake Brewery in Yamagata Prefecture.

Jikkomai is a bottle that I won in a raffle sale at the Matsuzaki Shinjuku liquor store in Kawagoe, Japan. Moreover, it was a bottle! I couldn't decide when to open it. I decided to open it tonight after going to a Yose at a hall of Stella West in Fujimino City, Saitama Prefecture, and listening to a rakugo story about sake by Sanyutei Koyuzo, the master.
I decided to open it tonight after listening to a rakugo story by Sanyutei Koyuzo. The first aroma is elegant, like that of wasanbon. In the mouth, it has a sweet and sour taste like strawberries with a pleasant aftertaste that cuts through quickly. This is a sake to be treasured.

This is the first time I have tried a Junmai Daiginjo from Drunken Whale. It is dry, refreshing, and has a good aftertaste. It is a great sake to pair with meals. The alcohol content can be felt well. The whale's tail on the label is stylish.

I have been curious about Takachiyo for a long time, but this is the first time I have had it tonight. The initial aroma is full of sweetness and acidity, and is pleasant. In the mouth, it is effervescent and tastes and smells like melon soda. It has a good sharpness and a refreshing aftertaste.

We had a bottle of Banshu Issen Junmai Ginjo Aizan from Sanyo Bai Shuzo, one of our favorite sake breweries. It was my first time to taste a sake brewed with Banshu Issen's Aiyama rice.
The aroma on the nose is mild, but in the mouth it has a fruity sweetness like green apples and a sourness that spreads across the palate. Perhaps it is because the rice is made from "shin-gin" polished rice, but it has a nice, clear and smooth texture.

Tonight's dinner was capped off with Kuheiji. It is said to be brewed with Omachi sake, but it is not so heavy and has a refreshing taste. I couldn't help snapping a picture of the cute poster of the Japan Famous Sake Association.

This is the first time I have had Isojiman, a famous sake from Shizuoka Prefecture. I don't often drink honjozo sake, but it has a refreshing taste that is perfect as a food sake. We enjoyed it with our first samma sashimi of the year. As you can see from the menu, there are so many good sakes lined up that I was very confused.

For my second glass of Kazu, I wanted to pair it with sashimi, so I went with a dry Masumi. It is a refreshing drink that goes well with sashimi! The fried bean curd is a chicken ball. It is well seasoned and goes well with sake.

I had a dinner at Kazu, a country house about 5 minutes walk from Kamifukuoka station in Fujimino-shi, Saitama, which I saw in Rui Yoshida's bar wanderings. I am glad that I can walk there from my house!
The first drink was Igarashi from Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno City, my hometown in Saitama Prefecture. Fruity and beautiful sake. I heard that Matsuzaki has started to carry it, so I want to buy some next time.
