Doど辛　純米生原酒

Preferred ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ A very dry +15. I always see the fire-roasted type, but this is the first time in several years that a fresh one has appeared, so I bought it on recommendation. It's not my favorite, but I wanted to try it to see how dry it was. It was surprisingly soft on the palate, and perhaps because of the freshness and transparency of the sake, it was strangely not as spicy as I had expected. It is delicious. Rolling it over, it has bitterness and a firm umami flavor. The sharpness of the taste suggests that it would be good with Japanese food such as fish and simmered dishes, rather than Chinese or Western food. Because of the strong alcohol content, I drank less than usual.

Preference ★★★★☆ Sake made by Obuse Winery in Nagano. It seems to be very rare, as it is made during the short time when the winery is not working. I was originally a wine drinker before I got into the sake swamp, so I was very interested in sake made by a winery. The aroma is subdued but promising, with a fresh sweet acidity like that of white grapes. The taste was complex yet sweet and sour, and both my husband and I found it delicious (and would drink it again), so I think it is a delicious sake, except for those whose tolerance is extremely narrow. It has broadened my world again.

Preference ★★★★☆ I am not familiar with the brand, so this is the first time I have heard of the brand, but I know how delicious and rare it is just by the fact that it is called Shinmasa. The lot number is written on the label, and it is said that only 2,000 bottles of this sake are made every year. It is a kijoshu, which means it is sweet, but the way the sweetness disappears is superb, and I felt its uniqueness in the way it disappears cleanly and clearly. The beauty of drinking outside is that you can encounter such a rare sake and listen to the fun stories.

Preference ★★★★☆ The fourth drink of the evening was Nakanori, which I am ashamed to admit was the first time I knew its name. The attack is light and sweet and easy to drink, but it has depth and is a delicious sake that I would like to add to my regular lineup like Oshinshu. There are many delicious sakes from Nagano that suit my taste.

Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ The third cup tonight was Hiraizumi. I was curious to try it because it is from the same brewery as Maruhi's Maruhi, which I enjoyed drinking the other day. The conclusion is that I prefer Maruhi. It does not have as much acidity as Maruhi, and when compared, it has a stronger impression of sweetness than Maruhi. I was rather impressed by the sourness rather than the sweetness, so this is delicious, but my preference is for Maruhi.

Preference ★★★★☆ The second drink of the evening is a new to me Daishinshu. The aroma is modest. It has a light sweetness at the beginning, acidity, and a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. As a lover of sweet and tasty sake, I was attracted to this sake because I could feel the sweetness that I like and it was well-balanced and could be easily matched with a meal. My husband also liked it, and if it is available at a local liquor store, I would like to add it to my regular lineup.

Preference ★★★★☆ The first drink of the night, Kameizumi, which I have been wanting to try! The sweet and sour aroma like a ripe pineapple, which is bouquet immediately after the bottle is opened, raises my expectations. Sweet! It was fresh and moist, just like pineapple juice. I want to drink it again.

Preference ★★★★☆ My favorite Omachi and my favorite Ni Usagi 10th anniversary label! Since it was our 10th wedding anniversary just this year, there was no choice but not to buy this. We opened the bottle with a luxurious lunch. It was smooth and well balanced with a light sweetness, while having a strong flavor typical of Omachi.

Jade was delicious when I drank it last year! The fine chile like microbubbles and the clear, watery, slippery taste are perfect for hot summer. It's not very cosy because it's so easy to drink and you can finish a bottle in no time. It was delicious again this year.

Preference ★★★★☆ Miyazumi Meizou brewery, the brewer of Sharaku. Even though I had something to do and visited near the brewery, I didn't have time to go through with it. After that, I stopped by a liquor store in Niigata and bought it. It was my first time to drink kijo sake, so I enjoyed the time I spent imagining the taste before opening the bottle. Naturally, the alcohol was strong and the sake was deep, sweet, and delicious. It was also good that the alcohol settled down and mellowed out the day after opening the bottle.

Preference ★★★★☆ I like it a lot. The acidity comes first and the aftertaste is also acidic. The alcohol content is low at 14 degrees, so it's easy to drink. I want to repeat this. I have been wanting to try Hiraizumi. My husband bought a bottle when he visited Akita, and I was so excited!

Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ Moist and sweet like a ripe melon. It has a strong sake taste, with a rich umami flavor, and while it is heavy, it is clear and beautiful. The sharpness is also to my liking. From the bottle and label (cool image), I imagined it would be a bit lighter, but I was betrayed in a good way.

Preference ★★★★☆ A picture of an empty bottle because I forgot to take a picture. This is another Kachiyo I wanted to try, which I got on a trip to Niigata! I opened a bottle at a gathering with friends, and it was so well received for its sweet and gassy feel that it was easy to drink and gone in no time. It was just as delicious as I imagined it would be, with a slight effervescence reminiscent of summer and the juiciness of a ripe, sweet pineapple.

Preference ★★★★☆ I was able to get a summer limited edition of Kaze no Mori sake! It's very tangy, dry and full of freshness. It is very dry and refreshing. If you leave it in the cup for a while, the sharpness settles down and the sweetness comes out, which is also good. We opened a bottle at a gathering with friends and it was so delicious that it was empty in no time.

Preference ★★★★☆ My favorite sour taste, like lemon water. I drink it in no time, gulping it down like rehydrating on a hot summer day. It was a perfect match for the yakitori with wasabi and sasami, and it was delicious. I was impressed by the fact that sake with such a high acidity is also available, and I realized once again how deep the swamp of sake is.
