Saku Junmai Daiginjo 2023 Rice Rice Koji Domestic Alcohol 15%. Polishing ratio 50%. Purchased at Shimizu Saburo Shoten in Okage Yokocho, Ise Jingu Shrine on January 2. It was a gorgeous and delicious sake. I thought I would like to drink it hot, perhaps because it was winter, but as usual I drank it cold.

Forgot to put it on! Tenzan Sudachi-shu (Sake made from sudachi) Sake, sudachi fruit, sugar Alcohol 8 This is the same brewery as the previously mentioned Shichida! We bought it together with Shichida. It was a liqueur, but I liked it because it was sake-like and easy to drink. I had it on the rocks and with soda, and I personally preferred it on the rocks!

Miroku <Winter> Special Junmai Rice Rice Koji Domestic Alcohol 16%. Polishing ratio 55 Rice used: 100% Sasanishiki Otokoyama Honten Purchased at a local liquor store This time, the sake is from Miyagi Prefecture, again from the Tohoku region. Apparently, the owner of a nearby liquor store is also fond of Tohoku sake, and he told me that he has a large selection of Tohoku and locally brewed sake. The first sip was not too sweet and had a crisp aftertaste. I am very frustrated with my lack of writing skills, but it is one of the sakes I would like to drink again! The rice is also made from Sasanishiki, so maybe that's why it tasted so refreshing and delicious.

Junmai Ginjo Name Genshu Mansaku no Hana Tank Shizuku 100% Akita Komachi from Akita Rice Rice Malted Rice Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 16%. Hinomaru Brewery Co. Another sake from Tohoku, Mansaku no Hana (Flower of Mansaku), which I've recently become addicted to. It is more crisp and tasty than the last super limited edition sake! It is a sake that you can drink while eating rice. But maybe because the rice is Akita Komachi, it has the sweetness of rice, which I like!

Urakasumi Junmai Shu Aki-agari Rice Rice Koji Rice polishing ratio 65 Saura Corporation Miyagi Another sake from Tohoku! I personally did not like this sake because the rice koji was too strong. It made me think that I have come to understand what kind of sake does not suit me.

Mansaku no Hana Super Limited Junmai Daiginjo once-fired sake Rice: Akita Sake Komachi 54%, Hyogo Yamadanishiki 46 Alcohol 16%. Polishing ratio 45 Hinomaru Sake Brewery Purchased at a liquor store near my house Price: less than 2000 yen Seasonal sake, only available twice a year, with a new production date of September 2023. Continuing from the last time, I happened to come across an Akita sake, Akita Sake Komachi. This time it was a mix of Akita Sake Komachi and Hyogo Yamadanishiki. This was the first time I drank a sake made from a mix of rice since I started paying attention to sake. Personally, I had chosen to drink junmai ginjos because I wanted to try a variety of sake priced around 2,000 yen, so I wondered if junmai daiginjos had been this easy to drink after a long time. I wondered if the Junmai Daiginjo I had been drinking for a while was this easy to drink. The result! It was a delicious sake!

Yamato Shizuku Junmai Sake Yamadanishiki produced in Akita, directly bottled and heated Alcohol 16%. Polishing ratio 90 Rice: 100% Akita Yamadanishiki, rice, rice malted rice Akita Seishu Co. Purchased at Sakaya Kurihara, about 1800 yen Akita Seishu's sake, which I have wanted to drink for a long time. Made from Yamadanishiki produced in Akita, with a rice polishing ratio of 90%. I had it cold, and the aroma of rice was wonderful! And I felt the alcohol was a little strong and spicy. Perhaps it was because I drank Hiko-ichi last time, but it was easy to drink!

Tsukii Sake Brewery Hikoichi Junmai Ginjo 100% Oarai rice Alcohol 16%. About 1800 yen Purchased at the Oarai Sake Brewery Osonoe Shoten in Ibaraki. There was a sake brewery nearby, but we couldn't find it in time. I asked the shopkeeper about local sake. The shop staff recommended this sake. Hikoichi Junmai Ginjo The sake brewery is located in Oarai, and they seem to use rice from Oarai. We recommend drinking it at room temperature or hot. I drank it at room temperature. It is dry, not sweet, but has a strong aroma of rice. I drank it with ankou nabe, which is a dish of grilled squid in a hot pot, and it went very well with it! As the owner says, it is not an easy sake to drink, but I recommend it when you want a strong drink!
