Since it was New Year's, I was a little excited. It is a type of Isoboast that is rarely available outside of Shizuoka. It has a fruity taste and is popular among all people. Thankfully, I have the New Year's vacation, so I will be drinking it in small doses.

I have been drinking Kubota since I was a student, but I am ashamed to say that this is the first time I have learned that there is a regular Junmai Daiginjo sake in addition to Manju and Senju. In my opinion, Niigata sake has no habits and is really easy to drink. I can't count the number of times I had a rough time with it when I was younger... Tonight is New Year's Eve, so I intend to drink to my heart's content.

My wife had contracted corona and was in close contact with the disease, so my parents' mother thoughtfully sent me some sake. Although I had already bought sake for New Year's separately, I was glad for the thought. I immediately tried it, but it didn't feel dry at first. It was more of a "nabe" (hot pot) taste. I thought it would taste even better if served over a hot pot. I will drink it again when I can eat nabe with my wife.

This is a classic Shizuoka sake that is available at most of the izakayas (Japanese-style pubs) I have visited since moving to Shizuoka. It is easy to drink, with a clean, dry taste, and is a favorite of my boss who lives in Nagoya and is a sake lover. It is easy to drink. We bought it for drinking at home because we think it goes well with nabe (hot pot). It is also cost-effective, as the No. 4 bottle costs about 1,300 yen.

Selected as a return gift from Minamiuonuma City's hometown tax payment. When I was a student looking for good sake, I remembered drinking a lot of Niigata sake, partly because a junior student happened to be from Niigata. Easy to drink and mellow. Delicious.

Purchased at Yaizu Sakana Center for watching Japan's World Cup game at home. The price was about 1,800 yen for 720 ml. I have had Eikun's Daiginjo before, but this one is more dry and to my liking. Go, Nippon!

This is the second recommendation from the restaurant. The Yorokobi Gaijin was also delicious, but I personally prefer this one because it is more spicy.

I had a sudden urge to drink good sake, so I visited the restaurant. I asked the owner for a dry sake recommendation and was served this one. I was told that it is called "Yorokobi Gaijin" (meaning "joyful person" in Japanese). It was the first time I had ever heard of it and the first time I had ever had it, but it was certainly dry and delicious.

A recent favorite for affordable home drinking. It is a little sweet, but easy to drink. The price is low, 980 yen for a four-pack at a local drugstore, but considering the cosmetic value, it is a very good deal.

Purchased at a local convenience store. It is reasonably priced and easy to drink. Perhaps it is because I am used to drinking Shizuoka's local sake, but the first sip is a little unsatisfying, and then it comes in a big splash later on.

A little dry and tasty. Personally, I highly recommend it to those who like dry sake. There are many restaurants that serve local sake in Shizuoka, so places where you can drink this kind of sake are very precious.
