AramasaNo.6 Xmas-type 2024純米生酛原酒生酒発泡

I had a 2-week break from drinking due to a common cold, but I finally opened a bottle of Xmas-type, which has been on stand-by since the beginning of the year, not as a celebration of my resumption of drinking, but actually as a way of celebrating my new year! I felt the pressure like champagne, but I opened it without spilling. I'm sure I was able to fix the pressure just right now that it's a clear type. The aroma is mild lactic acidity without the acidity of the Tenfrog clear prototype, and it smells sweet, like ramune! I think it has the best balance of sweet and sour so far in the clear type. The taste is definitely back to about as sweet as the Xmas-type before it became clear, although last year it was less sweet than the X-type Spark from the hanpukai. It was not as sweet as the X-type Spark from the Hanpukai last year, but this is a good sign that Shinsei's clear-type Spark technology is becoming more stable. The number of good sparkling sake has been increasing, but I still think the Xmas-type is the best at 10% or more. I wish they would put more effort into making it a year-round lineup instead of just once a year!

Sake aged 12.3 months at 1.2 degrees for 123rd anniversary The aroma is a bit melon-like, but there is also a grain-like smell, which is common in draft sake, and a honey-like aroma from aging, which is not fruity, but rather a light aged type aroma. The taste is mellow and complex with a sweet umami flavor typical of kijo sake. It also has a rather strong citrus acidity, which makes it rather refreshing to drink. It's still a normal sake, but compared to Yonotori, it has a slightly matured taste that adds depth and a unique flavor that makes it even more delicious. Overall, it is not an aged type of sake, but a light and tasty kijoshu that incorporates the taste of aging well.

The Black Dragon zodiac bottle, which has become an annual tradition The aroma is melon-like, fruity and gorgeous. Alcoholic content of 17%, but not at all stimulating. The taste is very rich and mildly sweet. The taste is clear, clean, and delicious, with no bitterness or other unpleasant flavors. I feel like it tastes even better than last year! The aftertaste is still sharp despite the strong flavor. Smooth and easy to drink At the same time, you don't feel the high alcohol content. It's a good sake with a high quality that is typical of Koryu.

A challenging kijoshu brewed with beer yeast. It is a pure sake but with a lower alcohol content of 12%, 2% lower than the standard Kijoshu Reborn. The aroma is quite mild. Slightly acidic, which is not typical of sake. The taste is definitely more acidic and the sweetness is stronger. Overall, it tastes sweet and sour like Yakult. It's different from the fruity taste of Reborn, but it's delicious in its own way. A good sake that should be made into a regular product.

Sake rice that changes with each Chinese zodiac sign is crossed with Yeast No. 12 in this series. This year is the second year and the sake rice is Hachitan-Nishiki. The aroma has a strong lactic acidity and a banana-like fruity flavor. It is similar to the recent Sengoku and Sancho. The taste is also very acidic and refreshing. Then a mild sweetness and umami comes out, and while it is very drinkable, it has a clear taste that is typical of Hachitan-Nishiki and is delicious. The aftertaste is refreshing and easy to drink. It is a normal tasty sake. Recommended especially for Shinmasa and Sengoku lovers!

Junmai Daiginjo made from special grade Yamadanishiki produced in the special A region of Yoshikawa The aroma is extremely gorgeous. The aroma is fruity and sweet like banana and melon Smooth mouthfeel that only a premium Daiginjo can offer. Very elegant and clear with a sweet flavor that seems to condense the essence of the rice. Watery and refreshing aftertaste I can only describe it as an impeccable and wonderful sake! In fact, I opened the bottle a month ago and refilled it, but I was really surprised to find that the aroma and taste have not diminished at all!

Junmai Daiginjo brewed with the father of Yamadanishiki, Short Stick Watabune (technically, a similar variety, Watabune No. 2). The aroma is mild for a Nabeshima, with a fruity, apple-like flavor. The taste is full yet clear with a sweet umami flavor. A little fruity, but the rice flavor is also quite rich. Overall, it's a little more modern, but it's really very drinkable. Delicious! A little out of character for Nabeshima, but a good sake that balances well while bringing out the characteristics of the rice used to make it.

Junmai Daiginjo brewed with 50% polished rice and limestone hard water The aroma is rather mild. Personally, I feel that there is almost no fruity flavor, but rather a complex smell of raw materials. The taste is mainly rich sweetness and umami. It is very drinkable and not as dry as one might expect. A little classic acidity comes out at the end, with a crisp finish. For a classic sake, it is quite easy to drink and tasty.

Next, of course, Snowman! I would like to drink it again as it will be a new sake yeast yeast yeast from this year! The stopper has a hole in it so it's easy to open, but it takes a little effort to mix it without shaking it. The aroma is a little milky like Sengoku and has a strong lactic acidity. The taste is not so sweet, probably because I'm too used to UA. The sweetness from the nigori is relatively moderate. The combination of carbonation and lactic acidity makes the taste not sour, but quite refreshing. I thought it was a bit un-Nigori-shu like, but that's good because it's just like a snowball! It is a very unique and delicious sake, and you can't talk about nigori sake without drinking it!

Since I was able to drink Jikin this year, I decided to try all three major nigori. First of all, Hirotogawa which is the easiest to buy! The carbonation was not as strong as I expected, and I could open the bottle normally. I could have bought it a long time ago, though! Not very fruity, but mellow and sweet with a rice aroma. The taste is very full rice sweetness and umami, like drinking rice juice! The taste is rich and satisfying, but the carbonation is very refreshing and easy to drink! A little bit dangerous! It's relatively simple, but it's delicious and gives you a strong sense of nigori sake's charm. As expected of a sake that is talked about in the same breath as Jikimatu and Yukidama!

Shinryu Nishiki, a new sake rice from Ryuriki, a cross between Yamada Nishiki and Shinryu and recognized as a suitable rice for sake brewing two years ago. This time it is a Junmai-shu that has matured for about a year and a half in R4BY. The aroma is mild, with a slight sourness with a sense of maturity, but I don't dislike it. The taste is a rich sweet rice flavor. There is a slight raw material taste, but overall the taste is rather clean. The finish is rounded off by a mild acidity. It is a classic sake that is usually delicious.

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.
