Finally, the Sanshiki bottle of Senkou Etoobari was opened! Sanshiki is a sparkling wine made by secondary fermentation in the bottle. First of all, the carbonation is usually stronger than the recent Tenkaeru! It took a minute or so in the sink, chilled to about zero degrees Celsius! The aroma is pear-like, which is common in sparkling sake, with a bit of milky sweetness, like a snowman or a UA zodiac bottle would do! The taste is strong carbonation at first. And for a moment, the sweetness is stronger than I expected. At the end, the taste disappears and it feels as if you were drinking soda water. To be honest, I would like to see a little more aftertaste, but I think it is quite rare to find such a refreshing and easy-to-drink alcohol. It is a very dangerous type of drink that does not feel like you have drunk it at all. It's a completely different sake from other modern Sengoku, but it's a good sake that deserves to be a new Sengoku!

The sixth of the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac and my own sixth Tazake New Year bottle. The aroma is the usual apple type. The freshness is less than before and the maturity of the fruit seems to have progressed. The taste is definitely low in acidity. The taste is rich and drinkable, with a dense sweetness like ripe apples and a bit of raw material bitterness. The fruity and sweetness is a bit higher than usual for a balanced type of tasake, but it's also delicious as usual! Definitely one of my favorite sakes to drink every New Year's!

Craft saké brewed with Citra hops added The purple color is said to be a polyphenol property of the hops. The color of the 稻 and agave 稻 and pop were similar, but I think this one is a little darker. The aroma is almost entirely grape and citrus from the pop. I think it's more like a craft beer made from rice than a craft saké. Well, it's non-foamed, after all. Taste is definitely more hoppy than saké and pop. The base is definitely the sweetness of the rice, but the grapeiness and the astringency from the hops have a stronger impact. It's good, but not great. It's hard to say how to rate it because it depends on your taste. For those who like hops, one advantage of this beer is that it can be paired with a wider range of foods than craft beers.

Nowadays it is quite rare to find a ginjo that is not junmai. Dry with a sake degree of +8 and a high alcohol content of 18%. The aroma is very floral and can be clearly detected in the bowl. It has a slightly sweet, ripe apple-like aroma. There is also a slight smell of raw materials like grains, probably because it is directly pumped. The taste is fuller than expected, with a sweet umami flavor. Recently, I have been drinking only low alcohol sake, but this kind of strong flavor even when watered down is rather new to me. The final taste is clean and crisp, with a slight spiciness from the alcohol, which is typical of ginjo-shu. It's just an ordinary tasty sake. It's more like a food sake, or a sake that whets your appetite.

Edo Bari Sentori Modern Ori-Garami The aroma is also characteristically sour but mellower, and the overall impression is comparatively sweet I think the carbonation is stronger than that of Zero, probably because of the orikara flavor. The balance of sweet and sour taste is the same, but the overall taste is thicker. Personally, I prefer the clear one, but I guess it depends on your taste. It is a delicious orikarami that is typical of Senkyoku.

Using Tamanae (Yamashu No. 4) and Saitama G yeast The aroma is apple-like and not that spectacular. The taste is slightly sweet and the umami is very full. The taste is very voluptuous and drinkable along with a bit of complexity that is typical of nama sake. Delicious! Good sake with a good balance of fruity and classic flavors.

Nanamizu Junmai 70 Yamada Nishiki I've been drinking Nanamizu for a while, but Yamadanishiki seems a bit rare. It has a slightly unusual fruity aroma that is typical of Nanamizu, with a gourd-like aroma and a kiwi-like acidity. The main taste is clear sweetness and umami. The acidity is also quite tasty, and the aftertaste is refreshing and clean. The final taste is a little complex, but that may be due to the fact that it is junmai. Overall, it is a very clean and tasty sake.

Akabu's sparkling is GALAXY using Ginga Ginga, but this one has similar specs, but is made from Daiginjo Yunokou with 40% polished rice. The bottle was slightly spilled when opened, but the carbonation was not too strong. The aroma is surprisingly acidic, with a hint of lactic acidity added to the pear aroma often found in nigori. The taste also has a full flavor, but overall it is a bit sour. It is refreshing, easy to drink, and delicious while still being very drinkable. It is not as sour as champagne, but I think it is close to its position in sake. Sour and dry with a relatively complex flavor, making it a very versatile type of pairing.

Craft saké based on the "Hana-Hashiroku" method of making doburoku from the Tohoku region using the Oriental hop "Karakaso", and also containing hops similar to those used in beer. This time, Sencha green tea from Shizuoka's main mountain is added to this special order! We used beer bottles, but the carbonation is not that strong. Mildly fizzy compared to regular activated nigori The aroma is of blue grass, flowers, citrus and grapes from the hops, and a refreshing hint of tea. Complex, yet very fresh, with a beautiful finish that is rarely found in craft beers. The main flavor is the sweetness of the rice. The taste is mainly rice sweetness with a hint of grapeiness from the hops and a touch of chouxiness. There is also a slight tea flavor and astringency, making it a very deep beer. Delicious! I also enjoyed the hops with agave, and I wonder if rice sake might be a better match for hops than beer made with malted barley.

This is of course the first day of the New Year Senkyo's zodiac bottle for the third year The bottle was opened a little carelessly and spilled a little. It's been quite a while since I've had such a strong carbonation! The aroma is the familiar strong sweetness and lactic acidity. Nice fruity aroma like melon juice. The only thing is that it smells a little like ethyl acetate, which is like cemedine, which is a bit of a letdown. Tastes sweet and fruity like melon juice The strong carbonation makes it sweet but quite refreshing. I'm starting to think it tastes even better than last year. A delicious drink that I definitely want to have every year!

Since I was able to buy so much this year, I'm going to spend New Year's Eve with Jyushiro today! A 35% polished special A Yamada-Nishiki sake. The sake is said to be made by selecting the best unrefined sake and storing and aging the best ones after fire-quenching. The price is probably between Gokujo Morohaku and Nanadaru Nijukan. The aroma is gorgeous and apple-like. The aroma is gorgeous and apple-like, with a hint of peach and white flowers. The taste is still a little fresh and shows the greatness of Jyushi-Dai's unique fire-working technique. The main taste is fruity and mildly sweet like apple and melon. It has a slightly sweet taste, but the aftertaste is clear and not too harsh, making it easy to drink. A model of the sweet and tasty type of sake. When drunk in a sake bowl, a caramel-like sweetness derived from aging is added to give it a fuller, richer flavor, making it even more delicious. Easy to drink, highly satisfying and delicious!

Daiginjo Shizukusyu made with Yamadanishiki produced in Yoshikawa The aroma is very mild for a daiginjo. The aroma is very clean with only a slight hint of ginjo aroma. It might be more pleasant at higher temperatures. The taste is very clean and clear, as is typical of Shizuku-shu. The sweetness of the rice and alcohol are blended together for a very smooth taste. There is almost no acidity, but it has a clean and crisp aftertaste, probably due to the fact that it is alkyu-soaked. Simply delicious! The aroma and taste are relatively modest and lack impact at first glance, but overall the balance is exquisite without any unpleasantness, and it is a very well-made daiginjo.

Nabeshima made with Yamadanishiki produced in Yoshikawa An entry-level sake in the Daiginjo range of Nabeshima The aroma is relatively mild. Fruity and slightly sweet aroma like melon Still a little carbonation in the mouth Surprisingly, the acidity is quite strong. The overall taste is a little dry, with a mild sweet melon or melon-like flavor combined with sourness, and a fairly refreshing aftertaste. To be honest, I couldn't really taste much of its characteristics, but it is a normal, easy-drinking, delicious sake with no noticeable flaws.

This is KIYOMIZU from the same hanpukai. The difference is that Maikaze from Gunma Prefecture is used instead of Gohyakumangoku. The aroma is the same as SAKAEMASU, but milder. The taste is surprisingly less cloying than SAKAEMASU. There are not many rice varieties that have a cleaner sake quality than Gohyakumangoku. The sweetness is also relatively strong and full-bodied.

SAKAEMASU, the main brand of Shimizuya Brewery, which uses wine bottles and corks to promote value enhancement through aging and vintage sake. Usually stored fresh, but the hanpukai is a special draft version! The aroma is slightly mild and banana-like. Slightly acidic, typical of junmai sake. The taste is quite complex. In addition to the banana, there is a sweet umami taste of rice, and a complex taste of grain and bran, reminiscent of the recent Nirvana Turtle, which is a low-polished sake. I have only had aged sake, but my impression was that it was more mellow. Well, it's not that it's bad, but it's not for everyone... I don't think it's for my taste.

New this year, 40% polished rice of Gohyakumangoku Gorgeous aroma Sourness like apple and a little pineapple Almost no sweetness, but the characteristics of Gohyakumangoku combined with the high polished rice make it the cleanest and most refreshing Hana-yoso. The taste is surprisingly quite sweet. No, it really is sweeter than the Omachi of two or three years ago! It has a dense sweet flavor like an apple with honey, and the taste is very drinkable, just like Huahiangyoku! Delicious! The characteristics of Gohyakumangoku are also utilized, and the taste is very clear with no cloying taste at all. The aftertaste is rather refreshing with a pineapple-like acidity. I never thought that Gohyakumangoku, which was at the bottom of my ranking of Hahyokuso, had become so delicious.

Kangiku no 39 has already become a year-end staple. Today, I'll have the regular draft version first. The aroma is apple-like, typical of Kangiku. Compared to last year, the pineapple-like acidity is less pronounced. The taste is very clean and sweet. It has a full flavor, but it also maintains a sense of transparency, which is really great! I am not sure if it is pineapple or not, but the tropical and fruity acidity finishes the taste refreshingly. Not only delicious, but also very beautiful! Personally, I might actually like last year's saké, but the quality of this year's saké is better than last year's, and you can tell that it is improving every year! A great sake worthy of Kangiku's signature!

Mikumari series is brewed with Nikko's God's water. I can't help but think that the low list price is the best feature of this product. Gorgeous aroma like ripe apples. Not too sweet for a Houou Mita. It is said to be characterized by a slight effervescence, but personally, my first Hououmida was a fresh Black Phoenix, so I think it has a carbonation that is typical of Hououmida. The taste has a mild sweet flavor and a comparatively strong acidity, and it's very refreshing and light. It's not so dry, but it's very easy to drink among Hououmida, and you can't stop drinking! I'm not sure if it's new or not, but I think it's a great sake!

Asahi Koh's sake to be entered in a sake competition A brand with great technique, but I have the impression that it is not widely distributed outside the prefecture. The aroma is capsule-like and very floral. Even the sake bowl is a little too gorgeous. Fruity aroma with hints of green apple, Fuji, and pineapple. In addition to the fruity flavor, it has a dense yet clear sweet and delicious taste. The slightly higher alcohol content makes it very drinkable, and you can feel the smoothness of the daiginjo-like mouthfeel. I've been drinking a lot of low alcohol sake lately, so this one has more of an impact. You may not like the taste, but it's amazing that I couldn't find any negative points at all! It's the kind of sake that has won a lot of awards!

The last bottle of the day was a UA Snowman. It was supposed to be skipped this year, but they made a big change in the assemblage and decided to base it on Grand Natural, so I rushed to buy it! The carbonation was pretty strong, took about a minute to open the bottle. The aroma is relatively mild, but there is a milky sweetness and slight lactic acidity that seems to be typical of Senkou's nigori sake lately! The mouthfeel is strongly carbonated. After the carbonation, it becomes silky and mellow. The taste is clear for a nigori sake with moderate sweetness. The acidity is only carbonation and a thin lactic acidity, but the balance with the sweetness is just right, refreshing and easy to drink. Delicious! Compared to the previous UA Snowball, the acidity has been reduced and the milky sweetness that is characteristic of snowballs is more apparent. It's definitely a very tasty sake, but I wonder if the next one will be different since the Grand Natural is sort of a limited edition this year.
