Echino Kanmei Sake. I rarely drink sake, but I received a bottle of Echino Kanmei sake. My honest impression was, "Oh, it's sake. I have not even drunk enough sake to compare them, but they all seem to have a similar taste. I had the impression that even if the brand name was Koshinokanbai, it would be no different than a packaged sake from the supermarket. Maybe it would be different if we compared the sake.

Nanbu Bijin Junmai Ginjo, once fired. Wow, delicious😃. Just a little bit of muscat, silky rice flavor and sweetness, rich milkyness that spreads, moderate and just right acidity, and a long aftertaste. I think it's in the "sharp, light, dry" genre, but you can taste the transition of flavors and sweetness. I love this kind of sake. It is a happy sake that makes you want to keep drinking it slowly. When I buy sake at a liquor store, I tend to buy raw sake, so I'm going to go with the fire-brewed sake series for a while, even though I can get it home from the supermarket. Well, this time it is Nanbu Bijin, so you can't find it everywhere, but at my local Japan Meat, you can usually find it in the corner where it is not refrigerated.

It is tasake. And it is made with 100% of my favorite comet. How could I not drink it? Actually, this is the first time for me to drink Tasake. I really wanted to drink it while comparing it with the Sake Komachi that I bought together with it, but I bought this one as a gift, so I can't compare them this time. This is Comet's Tasake, and I thought, "Wow, it's really good. It opens up better when left a little longer than when the bottle is just opened. The flavor is complex yet powerful. First minerality, then juicy with a punch, then rice flavor, and all flavors are rich. No wonder Tazake is so popular. It made me want to try other Tasake as well.

I thought it would be light and dry since it is a Fukui sake, but I was wrong. I see, it has an old-fashioned, slightly old-fashioned hut aroma and a thick core. I wonder if it would be better if it were warmed up.

I like Fukuju and drink it often, but I didn't hesitate to buy it when I saw the label Sousei, which means "fresh" in Japanese. Fukuju itself is relatively rich, so I was very curious to find out what it would be like with the title "Sousei" and the name "Nama-shu. The result was a strong, punchy sake with the usual Fukuju base boosted by the strength and richness of nama-shu. It was not refreshing or invigorating, and although the title may not be appropriate, the sake was delicious. The taste was so strong that even when paired with grilled mackerel kimchi, it was not overpowered at all.

Dry! Really dry! Even spicier than the skunk cabbage I had the other day! You can feel the spiciness and minerality. It is like drinking fizzy hard water. Recommended for those who like dry taste. For me, I would have liked to taste a little more umami.

Tenmei is my favorite brand. It has a juicy aroma of pineapple, sourness, rice flavor, and sweetness, all in good balance. I have never felt so much juiciness in my usual Tenmei, but I feel juiciness in this sake.

This is a raw, unblended sake from Shibarihizuru. In the mouth, there is a slight sweetness and melon, followed by a mellow rice flavor, and a crisp finish that lingers. The overall impression is crisp, rich, and rough. I was surprised that it was darker and had a thicker core than I had expected.

I found a fresh storehouse of skunk cabbage, which I raved about the other day. Yes, it was just as good as expected. Compared to the last skunk cabbage, it is much thicker. But the basic characteristics are the same. It is a little strange that it seems so thick for a summer sake, but that is to be expected from a skunk cabbage. I'll be sure to get a bottle of skunk cabbage when I find it!

Well, the aroma of brewer's alcohol lingers in the taste. It is more like drinking sake-flavored alcohol than sake. The 18% alcohol content may have something to do with it. What's wrong with Kuroryu? It's like a one-cup or packaged sake.

First time for Isobojiman. Purchased at Tokyo Station Hasegawa Sake Shop. It is light and dry. The moment it enters the mouth, there is a slight spiciness, followed by a slight bitterness. No fruity aroma. The mild umami of rice spreads from there. The umami is strong. However, the aftertaste is short and sharp at the end. A manly sake. I was surprised because I thought Isobojiman was a fruity and mellow type of sake. It was delicious, but I felt a slight alcohol taste consistently, and it didn't have a clear feeling in the mouth. I did not like the taste in this area. So, it's not that famous brands are universally tasty. For the same price, I would definitely prefer Katsuyama Sen.

This is the second sake I bought on my trip to Gunma. It is from the same Nagai Shuzo brewery as Tobikara. It is also light and dry. It has a stronger flavor than Tobikara. On the other hand, light-bodied dry sake tends to have a thin taste, but this one does not have a thin taste. It is light and dry, but it is more mellow. It has a slightly fruity aroma and a mild, powdery rice flavor. It is neither thin nor harsh, with just the right amount of umami. The balance is very good, and it is delicious. It was an ideal sake for my taste. I had never heard of Basho, but it was a great discovery. Very tasty. I would never have picked up a bottle if I hadn't been on vacation, so I'm glad to have had this encounter.

I went on a trip to Gunma and bought some local sake. Nagai Sake Brewery in Kawaba Village. I was attracted by the name "Tobikara". It is said that the sake was made with the aim of making it extra dry. This is delicious! It is light and dry. It starts with a refreshing clear stream, and the powdery rice flavor spreads without any fruity aroma or other unpleasant taste. I imagined it to be sharp and spicy that would stimulate the tongue, but it is mellow and soft. There is no minerality. It is soft water with only the umami of rice. It does not lose its sharpness, and the aftertaste lingers pleasantly. The fact that there are no unnecessary aromas at all is wonderful. It was very delicious. All the Nagai sake brewery's products are delicious. If I find it somewhere, I will buy it again.

The aroma of melon, bitterness, and rich rice flavor spreads. It is rich and full-bodied. It is quite rough. I had imagined it to be slightly effervescent, fruity, white wine, and light, based on the name "Yui Yui" and the image of a female toji, but it was not at all what I had in mind. Personally, I found it too heavy and bitter. If I had drunk it in the cold season, my impression might have been a little different.

Delicious! The light, refreshing taste is softly followed by a slight muscat, a soft, gentle rice flavor supported by a slight bitterness, and gradually the umami becomes more mellow. This sake is almost in the ideal strike zone. Kamonishiki goes well with anything. It is not only a favorite of mine, but also has no unpleasant flavors at all, and the sweetness and richness are just right. It is so good that I dare to say that I would like to have more of the ginjo aroma or the feeling of alcohol at the moment of swallowing. If you drink this sake without any accompaniment, the bitterness will be amplified because the alcohol taste you had before still remains in your mouth. It is also good in terms of cosmetics.

Tsururei's raw sake has a completely different expression from that of fire-aged Tsururei. While regular Tsururei is like a thin, beautiful boy standing in a snowy landscape, this sake is like a strong young man sweating as he removes snow from the ground. The Tsururei flavor is preserved, but it is surprisingly thicker and has a stronger core. This is fine, but I like Tsururei's light and soft taste. I think I prefer the hi-ire style.

Kamo Nishiki's cargo tag sake. 80% Gohyakumangoku. Stable Kamo Nishiki. The melon flavor is followed by a refreshing sweetness and mild umami. There is also a consistent slight bitterness. Perhaps because it is supported by the bitterness, the sweetness is not harsh and gives a dry impression. Personally, however, I would have preferred a little less bitterness. The bitterness bothered me a little, or rather, I was distracted by it. I think the direction of the concept is good, and it is a delicious sake, but personally, it bothered me, so I will not drink it again. But I still like Kamonishiki.

Katsuyama Sen. It is one of my favorite sake. It is a little expensive, so I buy it as a reward for hard work. It is said to be like sake in a wine glass, and it is true that the first sip of the day feels like white wine, but from the second sip, it is still sake. But this sake flavor is unique. After all, it is creamy. It's like a fluffy shaved ice with condensed milk made with natural water that melts away. Moreover, it is a two-step booster formula, or rather, once the flavor has spread, it feels as if it has been boosted by one more step. I love this creaminess, so delicious that I want to keep it in my mouth forever. The milk is supported by a slight refreshing acidity and a really faint melon aroma. These are the one and only Katsuyama's that I have ever had. The downside is that it costs 2,800 yen. If anyone has any recommendations for similar reasonably priced sake, please let me know!

Sake from Yanagawa, Fukuoka Prefecture. Full-bodied and very rich, just like Kyushu. From a slight muscat aroma, the richness spreads rapidly. The rice flavor, which is suitable for warming up, is the core of the taste, which transitions to bitterness and azuki beans. A slight grassy aroma at the end. No butteriness. Is it the bitterness? I don't know how to describe this warming-oriented flavor, but it tastes like normal Shinkame. It has an old-fashioned aroma. It may be hard to describe, but if you know what I mean, please let me know. I generally don't like sake with this flavor. But I tried it with beef stew and it was good!

When the bottle was first opened, it was foamy and the flavor was not consistent, but after a little time, it really came into its own. The entry was lemon-flavored acidity, which was quickly followed by a softly swelling rice flavor. It claims to be mellow, but it is indeed mellow, but it is supported by the acidity, so it doesn't feel that mellow. It is a strange sensation, but I felt a powdery sensation in the mellowness. That is why it is so smooth, the mellowness is diminished, and the dryness is enhanced. On a side note, it was a perfect marriage with chicken skin. The fatty taste of the chicken skin was refreshed, but the richness that was not completely refreshed was like a heavenly sensation together with the mellow part of this sake. It is delicious, but the acidity is a little stronger than I like. I like it a little softer.
