This GW, I drove home from Toyama to Yokohama for the first time in a while. From Toyama, drive south on Route 41 via the Awa Tunnel to the Matsumoto IC to Yokohama. On the way, I enjoyed soaking in hot springs in Okuhida (Norikura and Hirayu), encountering Japanese monkeys, and buying koshibara, kogomi, and honwasabi (Japanese horseradish) at a roadside station to eat at my parents' house. The sake to be paired with this dish is Akabu's Yunokou. It is made with Yunokou from Iwate Prefecture, with 50% polished rice and 15% alcohol by volume. It is a sake with flavor and sharpness, just like Akabu. It is a stable sake.

A Niigata supermarket, Haranobu, has also set up shop in Toyama City, making it easy to purchase brands that are regularly consumed in Niigata. On the day of the event, we went shopping and purchased some of the օ mochi of Koshino-Kanbai. The brand name is "秩败", made from Niigata Gohyakumangoku rice, 55% polished rice, 14% alcohol by volume. Since it was my birthday, I was allowed to eat whatever I wanted, so I enjoyed the sake with grilled bonito and horse yukke (horse meat), which I always have in the freezer. It is a good sake that does not disturb the meal. The horse yukaye is a product of Chikko Farm in Kumamoto, where I had visited the slaughterhouse with professors from a national research institute a few years before the earthquake in Kumamoto. The nostalgia and sense of security made the sake even better.

Good evening, NASUMAN404! It's been a long time since Albis opened in Fukui, so it looks like a supermarket warring age of rival supermarkets 🤣. It certainly feels like an advantage to be able to buy out-of-prefecture sake✨.

Doburoku" from Hasegawa Sake Brewery, which I have been glancing at every time I go on a business trip. My mother loves doburoku, so I bought some and went home to my parents' house. I immediately tried it. It was an authentic, yet refreshing doburoku. My mother was happy with it. Alcohol content 7%, 300 mL.

I opened a bottle of the bottle that I had stored in the refrigerator at my parents' house a while ago on the same day. Hwang Suisen is one of my favorite brands, with a distinctive taste, and even though it is 13% alcohol, it is not too much. It is one of my favorite brands and can be easily served with meals. It is made from 20% Yamada-Nishiki (80% suitable rice for sake brewing) and 50% polished rice.

Opened a bottle of sake that my mother had purchased at a liquor store in the station closest to my parents' house, next to the flax cat. It was served with whale (fried with garlic and soy sauce), which I hadn't had in a while. It is an orthodox Toyama sake, but it has a strong rice flavor, and yet it is light and easy to drink. Made with Yamada-Nishiki, 50% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume.

We opened a bottle of Shinmasa that we bought at the end of last year at my parents' house. Since we spent New Year's in Toyama, we enjoyed it with my parents in a New Year's mood. The sourness was a little too much for my mother, but my father and I drank it all in no time at all. The sourness accented the sake and made me want to pour it into a wine glass (it seemed more sour than before, but maybe that was just my imagination). It is made from 100% Akita Sake Komachi, 60% polished rice (both koji and kake rice), and 13% alcohol by volume.

I visited Obuse Winery that day after a friend reported that she had purchased a bottle of Obuse Winery's sake at a nearby liquor store. I had no idea it was 1500 mL, but I bought it without hesitation, because I have trouble storing bottles of nama-shu in the fridge, but this one fits in the door side of the fridge (great). But this one fits on the door side of the fridge (great), and I finish it right away. We enjoyed the sake while eating firefly squid with vinegared miso paste and snow crab from the New Year's inventory that we purchased at the supermarket. It is made from 100% Miyamanishiki from Nagano Prefecture in 2024, 59% polished rice, 14% alcohol by volume (transcribed from the back label, Association No. 6 yeast and natural bacteria). As I think every year, it is a beautiful (white wine-like) sake and a wonderful sake that I never get tired of drinking. This year we have 1500 mL so we can have it without hesitation.

At a farewell party held at the end of last year, we drank Haneya's Tsukishita-bi and Tomibigiku junmai sake (and many other local Toyama sake). (Fumigiku is a brand sold mainly locally by the Fumigiku Brewery in Haneya). (Fumigiku is a brand sold mainly locally by the Fumigiku Sake Brewery in Haneya.) Indeed, as a food sake to be enjoyed with oden and grilled fish, this junmai sake is excellent and never gets old, so it is no wonder that it is a local sake. So, I bought it to enjoy Fumikiku again (with Kannon squid sashimi on kelp). Polishing ratio 60%, alcohol content 15%.

Happy belated New Year! I would like to continue uploading sake to "Sake-no-wa" this year, albeit at my own pace. I also spent New Year's hoping that this year will be a year with fewer disasters than last year. Now, the first bottle of 2025 is a Junmai Daiginjo of Kubota. This year, I made a tokoso with it. We are going to drink the rest of it. It is a standard delicious sake. Polishing ratio 50%, alcohol content 15%. Stable quality.

The combination of Tominokoh (a rice variety bred by Toyama Prefecture for sake brewing) and Haneya was a good one to try! So I bought it. It sounded good when I opened the bottle and I was told that it had won the Kuramaster 2024 Jury Award (Junmai-shu category). It is made from 78% Yamadanishiki O Oyamanishiki and 22% Yamadanishiki. Polishing ratio 60%, 16% alcohol by volume. A gorgeous, well-balanced sake. As always.

This time, I chose Koei-Kiku, a brand I had never encountered before (my first time)! This is a brand that I had watched with envy as everyone else drank it at Sakegawa. It is made from 100% Aizan and has an alcohol content of 14%. Opened the bottle at my parents' house. As expected, it was a gorgeous sake, and my parents and I enjoyed it together.

We opened a bottle of sake given to us by a business partner. The taste is calm and reassuring. I learned a lot from a person who checks this sake every morning and talked about sake at an izakaya. I asked the person what kind of sake he likes and he said Yamamoto. Does this influence the direction of sake? The sake is made from 100% Miyamanishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture, with a rice polishing ratio of 59% and an alcohol content of 16%. I served it with dried ebotai (a favorite of mine as a child) sent from my parents' house. Ebotai (sea bream) is rare even in Toyama, where there are many species of fish.

Combination of "Omachi and No. 10 yeast" at Haneya. Purchased again this year based on last year's results. This sake is inspired by the luscious and elegant "Tsukishita Bijin" (beauty under the moon). It is made with 100% Omachi, 60% polished rice, and 15% alcohol. How can it not be good?

A friend reported that he had purchased a bottle of Shinsei at Mizuhata, so I visited there immediately. There were only two bottles left, but I successfully achieved my goal (points are required). This is my first Nirugame. It is said to be a junmai-shu (pure rice sake) brewed with a low milling ratio of 88% for both koji and kake rice in order to revive the essence of sake from the Edo period in the modern age (quoted from the manufacturer's website). It is made from 100% Akita Sake Komachi and has an alcohol content of 13 degrees. It is indeed a low-polishing sake, but you don't feel it. After all, Shinmasa never disappoints.

After finishing today's work, I have dinner. I thought about cutting back on alcohol because I have a reception tomorrow, but something about the non-alcoholic beer seemed a little tasteless, and I contemplated one of the two sake sets, Noto's Shirakiku by Kaze no Mori, a reproduction of an original recipe. Then my wife suggested a little sake because we were out of cooking sake. We had a bottle of Okunoto Shirakiku brewed with Kanazawa yeast and Yamadanishiki, which survived the disaster, and soft water (hard water softened by filtration) at the Aburanaga Sake Brewery in Kaze no Mori (Wind Forest). It is delicious, with a banana-like aroma and a slight bitterness. The flavor and aroma are more distant from the Kaze no Mori atmosphere than the collaboration brew with Kaze no Mori. Junmai Daiginjo-Unfiltered and Hi-ire with a 50% rice polishing ratio and 16% alcohol by volume. Don't stop #Noto's sake!

On the way home from harvesting the spinach and chrysanthemum in my vegetable garden, I stopped by a liquor store and saw a collaboration sake between Kaze no Mori and Okunoto's Shirakiku! So I bought it. I opened the bottle today. The impression I got was that it was a mellow Kaze-no-mori. It is delicious. Junmai Daiginjo, unfiltered and unpasteurized. It is made from 100% Yamadanishiki that survived the disaster, and the rice polishing ratio is 50%. The alcohol content is 16% and Kanazawa yeast is used. We enjoyed it while chewing Komatsu kelp. We look forward to the original version.

I opened a bottle of "Hokuto Zuisho", a souvenir from my recent business trip to Hokkaido, which I purchased at a liquor store in Kitami called "Mayanagi Sake Shop"! My business trip was via Sapporo, Obihiro, Kushiro, Nemuro, Abashiri, and Kitami (Memanbetsu Airport) on my way home. Naturally, I went to an izakaya (Japanese-style pub) on the way, but I decided to limit myself to sake from Hokkaido, so I had a bottle of Nemuro's "Kita no Katsu Shiboritate" in Kushiro. I asked for a recommendation for sake from Hokkaido and was recommended "Kaminokawa Taisetsu". However, I had drunk it some time ago, and after much deliberation, I chose "Hokuto Zuisho," which I had never heard of, and it turned out to be the right choice. It is a beautiful, well-balanced sake with a slightly sweet, fragrant, and crisp taste. It is made from Hokkaido rice, with a rice polishing ratio of 45% and an alcohol content of 16%. Delicious!

On the way back from a business trip to Yokohama, I stopped by the Yokohama Takashimaya Department Store to pick up some sake. After much deliberation, I decided on a classic SENKYO. It is made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture, with a milling ratio of 50% for koji rice and 60% for kake rice. It is brewed with a traditional sake yeast yeast strain. As expected, the 14% alcohol content makes it easy to drink. The classic taste is well-balanced with moderate acidity. It was finished in no time.

Recently, it seems that people in my business circle have come to know that I am a sake lover, and I received another bottle of sake from a teacher I know 😄 (I'm so glad). I didn't know that this sake is a famous sake from Ibaraki, which is also served at the VIP seats of Dodger Stadium. If you watch Otani's video on Youtube while drinking this sake, you may already feel like you are in the VIP seats. The sake has a strong flavor of rice, yet is clean and refreshing, and was awarded the highest gold medal out of 4,570 varieties at a wine competition held in San Francisco. It is made with 50% polished rice and 16% alcohol by volume. By the way, it's being served at Dodger Stadium for $90 😳.

I bought this Sentori at Yokohama Takashimaya during the Bon vacation. It was the first time for me to drink Mukaku, but compared to other SENKYO I have had, it was a sake with no quirks and made the best use of Yamadanishiki. The alcohol content is 14%, and the four-pack bottle was empty in no time. It was delicious. 100% Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki (produced in Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture), Polishing ratio: 50% for Koji rice, 60% for Kake rice.
