I had been drinking it lazily in a bottle, but finally it was empty.
It is unusually high in alcohol content for Koei Kiku.
It has a rich acidic flavor reminiscent of the Kikutaka of old.
The label is really cool.

Toyama Trip Reflections.
In the comparison of drinks, this one stood out above all the others.
It was not just a fruity sake, but something that penetrated through.
I could not understand what it was, but if I have another chance, I would like to try it more carefully.

It is my fault for not checking properly, but I think the color of this bottle is quite misleading. I bought it thinking it was the color of alcohol.
I expected it to taste berry sweet. After all, Laughing Four Seasons excels at sweet sake. I was confused by the gap between the actual flavor and the sweetness, so I didn't enjoy it.
Later, when I drank it blind, I could enjoy the original taste of sake, which was not so sweet, but rather dry with a soft acidity, as if it was an old-style sake. It has nothing to do with red.
The color of the bottle probably spoils it. Both the consumer and the producer.

Excuse me for commenting! I see that you drink a lot of different brands, not just the popular ones! I'm sure there are some brands you haven't encountered yet, but I hope we can enjoy each other's company 😀.

Thank you for your comment, Shota-san. I see that you also enjoy a variety of sake. There are many brands that I am not familiar with, and I use them as a reference. Let's do our best to enjoy each other's sake life.

I had a good drink last time, so I'm going to repeat it.
Nice and thick. It reminds me of lemonade.
It is as intimidating as Etsukaijin.
As one would expect from a brewery that used to brew sake for Kenrishi.
I recently became addicted to boiled eggs marinated in miso.
I realized that it is better to rinse miso lightly.

Finally, Kagawa sake up.
It's been quite a while since I've had a triumph.
Dark!!! Apricots and dried grapes with hidden nutty flavors...and since it's R3, it has an aged feel to it, which makes the flavor complex and interesting. I like it. The flavors are so groovy.
Served with a half-boiled egg marinated in miso.
Straight is too strong for me, so I added soda to triple the amount.
Even so, I can still taste the flavor.
It's like a strain of Kikutaka or Ryujinmaru.
I'd like to try heating it up tonight.

This is my favorite one from the Wind Forest right now.
It has a strong acidity, low alcohol content, and a slight muzzle.
It's especially nice after a run.
I was going to let it sit for a while longer, but I couldn't resist and opened the bottle,
With fish paste and additive-free Kamaboko.
I feel the deliciousness of fish. I wonder if the one Yamaoka-san made in "Aimashinbo" is like this.

Well, I realized that I haven't had a cloudy one yet this year, so I bought this one.
No gassiness, but very refreshing and easy to drink.
When mixed, the dorosity carries the sweetness of the rice, but it is still refreshing.
Maybe because it is basically dry. When I mix it with carbonated water, I can drink it gulp it down.
I also like the label. It depicts an ink painting of a winter scene in the countryside.
The white color, which reminds one of snow, is actually the white of this doburoku.
The background of the label is colorless and transparent.
So if you drink this, the snow will melt and spring will come.
Nice.

My son brought me a box of surume (dried cuttlefish).
I thought it was a nice gesture, but he himself ate most of it.
The sake was soft and watery, with a small triangle of sweet, spicy, and acidic elements. It is a little disappointing that the spicy aftertaste that I felt with the summer sake was not present this time, but the moist flavor is addictive.
By the way, when I saw the number 12, I mistook it for the alcohol content.
Later: After a few days, the taste was refined and became very tasty. What do you mean?

It is said to be extremely dry, but it has a fruity taste and does not feel that dry. The slight carbonation makes it refreshing and easy to drink.
What do the three dates on the edge of the label mean? The year 1550 is said to be the year when Portuguese ships first arrived in Nagasaki. I am not sure about the other two. I would like an explanation by all means.

Memories of a solo trip to Sendai.
A limited edition sake named after the brewer's family name.
This one was very good. The balance of sweetness and acidity is excellent.
I paired it with Sendai beef tongue, and it was just too good.

Some people have already introduced it,
This sake is brewed by Suzuki Sake Brewery, which was damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake, to support the victims of the Noto Peninsula Earthquake. Kadoya Sake Brewery is also participating in this project and will donate a portion of the sales price.
It is really a wonderful project.
The taste is a mature and refreshing jungin. However, it has a mineral taste unique to this brewery. I wanted to see what it was, so I kept drinking more and more. It is gently delicious, but you can feel its core.
Serve with pickled asuyo leaves from Hachijojima Island.

The water is very soft.
The sweetness and sourness come in easily, and the softness makes it easy to drink.
It is delicious. The rice is Toyama sake rice and the yeast is local apple flower yeast. It is truly a local sake.
There are many sake breweries in Toyama, but few of them offer brewery tours.
Among them, Yoshinotomo Sake Brewery was open to visitors who made reservations by phone the day before the tour.
The president of Yoshinotomo Sake Brewery said that they actively accept brewery tours. I was very grateful.
The company also has its own rice-polishing facility, and they polish rice at the request of many other breweries. It is truly a bottom-feeder of Toyama's sake culture.
I learned a lot from him. Thank you very much!

Sake freshly squeezed in Oita yesterday is served in Osaka.
What a luxury.
The simple sweetness of the rice is pleasantly sweet with a slight carbonation and a hint of acidity.
Thanks to the brewer and the Urano Sake Shop.

Hot sake was served at Hama Sushi.
The price was 480 yen per sake cup.
To be honest, I wasn't expecting much, but to my surprise, it was a good sake with lots of chestnut and grain flavors. It was also nice when heated. The only regret is that the sake cup is very cold. I wonder if it was chilled for cold sake.

It is somewhat thick with little or no acidity.
The lack of acidity seems to match the vinegar in the trout sushi.
Aoyama Sohonpo's trout sushi is very good.

I have recently become obsessed with supermarket liquor.
I don't know if it's because it's old, but it's very discounted.
This kind of thing is nothing but a bargain for aged sake lovers.
Sure enough, it was nice and ripe.

We had junmai and shiboritate honmai (at separate restaurants).
Junmai is refreshing and delicious. Goes well with sashimi. It comes at it from a different angle than Niigata's neat, dry sake. No wonder it is so popular.
The Shiboritate Honkai is much more powerful than the Junmai. I'd like to take my time with this one. It might be good warmed up.
The food was from Yatsuhashi-san's place in Toyama City. The fish, or rather the seafood, was exceptional.
They decorated our last night in Toyama.

At a hotel on a trip to Toyama.
The flavor comes in easily.
The price is 800 yen, but it is worth it.
But ...
The level of packaged sushi at the supermarket is too high.
I envy the people of Toyama Prefecture.

Recommended by Kadoya Sake Shop.
Delicious.
The modest shwashuwa and sweetness of the rice is combined with the sharpness of the sake, probably due to the effect of the sake's aluzome (alcohol-added) additives.
The level of Wakanami and this one is too high.
Honjozo is also very reasonably priced, and I'm gradually becoming more and more fond of it.
