After comparing with Arabashiri, I preferred Seste (more acidic and tastier than Arabashiri) and my husband preferred Arabashiri (pichi shuwa).

天覧山直汲み無濾過原酒 十水仕込み
ochi
Preferred ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
I have never had this type of wine before.
Soft acidity at the beginning. (You can also taste the acidity from the aroma.)
It has a juicy sweet and sour taste like when you bite into a grape, but because it is made with Jumizu, it has a concentrated, rich taste and a strong alcohol taste.
Because of its richness, it is not a food wine, and pairing is difficult. If I had to say, cheese, sweet miso paste, or bean paste?
It was another new discovery.

SNOW is one of the most popular red beads and is always in a battle every year.
It is fine and silky. It drinks like a sparkling wine and goes well with Western food.
It is also good in terms of both beer and taste.

The moment I drank it, I naturally smiled, and this is it! This! and my husband and I roared at its deliciousness.
The freshness of a new sake, the deep flavor of junmai, and the rich sweetness. NEWBORN is exceptional.
It was a gift from my boss, so my husband and I took good care of it.

Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
This sake was made under the theme of "fire-brewed sake that is good to drink in summer."
It has a pleasant bitter aftertaste!
Since it is a summer sake, the mouthfeel is light and not too sweet, with a pleasantly bitter aftertaste.

This is SENKYO we got in Tochigi!
You can forget that it is sake and drink it easily. If I had to pick a favorite, I would prefer the more acidic Kabutomushi.

We opened a bottle of Zuika, a gift from Garakudai, who was shocked by its clear, uncluttered taste.
At first sip, I was surprised by the strong chirichiri-ness on the tip of my tongue, but the fleetingness that quickly disappeared reminded me of Zuika (snowflakes).
Like the other Gagakuyo, it is as if only the most beautiful parts were carefully collected and grained to form a shape.
Delicate and refined taste.
It was very delicious.
I recommend drinking it well chilled.

Hiraizumi山廃純米酒 百田
ochi
Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
I was so captivated by the acidity of Marubi that I wanted to try another brand, so I bought this Yamahai from Hiraizumi.
As the label says, it is not a clear sweet/acid type, but rather a dry sake that is perfect as a food sake.
It is not overly acidic like Maruhi, but rather mild and naturally acidic.

It was purchased at a roadside station during an expedition to Tochigi.
It seems to be a limited brand of Senkou in Tochigi prefecture.
It is not as acidic as Kabutomushi and has a natural taste.
The low alcohol content helped me to drink more, and before I knew it, it was gone in no time.
I envy Tochigi residents who can buy this daily.

Good evening, OCHI 😃.
Yes, I am a Tochigi resident! I'm a Tochigi resident who can buy it at a local supermarket 🤗I really appreciate the privilege of being a citizen of the prefecture ‼️😇

Natsutafuyuzo純米大吟醸 星あかり40
ochi
Preference ★★★★☆
Amanoto's Natsuda Fuyukura was met on an expedition to Akita.
I opened a bottle of Hoshiakari that I had purchased.
It has a mild mouthfeel and a pleasant soft, full-bodied sweetness. I also like the way it disappears quickly, leaving a lingering aftertaste.
When I drank Akita Sake Komachi, I naturally thought of Yuki-Onna (snow woman). The image of a pure white, cold, clear, dignified, and beautiful woman came to mind.
Compared to that, I felt Hoshiakari had more warmth and depth.

It is written "Shinba" and reads "Nippa".
Purchased at a liquor store in Tochigi Prefecture.
According to what the owner told me, the rice used here was grown by Kiyoshi Tanaka, a rice farmer who grows NIPPA rice in an area called Shinba (Nippa) in Tochigi City, Tochigi Prefecture.
And this Mr. Kiyoshi Tanaka.
Mr. Kiyoshi Tanaka is the model for Tonomura, a character in Jun Ikeido's famous "Shitamachi Rocket".
If he spoke so passionately, how could I not be interested in this book? So I decided to purchase the book.
The taste is condensed yet lightly sweet and tasty, with a hint of sourness. My favorite type.
Personally, I felt it tasted better when I let it come to room temperature, as it became softer.
When you know the producer's face and the story behind it, it tastes even better, and you will be more and more addicted to it. I also look forward to seeing the same Iinuma Meizo.

Toyobijin限定純米吟醸 愛山
ochi
Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
My favorite Toyo Bijin.
After Sake Mirai, Hakutsuru Nishiki, and Omachi, this time it was Aizan.
They all share the same sweet and delicious taste, but they are all different and all good.
Sake Mirai stands out for its dense sweetness and sharpness.
Hakutsuru-nishiki, with the same dense sweetness and crispness as Sake Mirai, was the juiciest.
Omachi, with its sweetness and strong, dark flavor.
Compared to the other three, Aizan was the lightest in sweetness with a hint of acidity. It has a mild texture and a light aftertaste without a hint of alcohol.

It was a day when we wanted to drink it with a meal, but the already-opened Omine was too sweet, so we decided to open another bottle of Yamasan.
It seems that our usual liquor store has recently started to carry it, and I was delighted when I found this one in the store.
It has a chili sensation on the tip of the tongue, a soft sweetness, and a slight citrus peel-like bitterness in the aftertaste. The overall impression is cohesive and refined. Despite its elegant flavor, it is light and easy to drink, making it a good toast.

I bought two bottles of Hiyoroshi Namazume Omachi on the day it arrived this year because I liked it so much after drinking it last year!
It is one of my favorite Omine wines with a particularly strong sweetness, and I was so captivated by its smooth, silky texture and concentrated sweetness that I had been waiting for a year for it to arrive.
The sweetness is as thick as honey, but it is not heavy, and I love the fact that I can drink it like water.
I am glad I bought two bottles.
It was very tasty again this year.
Quote from the website
A subtle floral aroma reminiscent of dahlia.
Thick texture with layers of concentrated sweetness and flavor.
