Ryoseki Shuzo 150th Anniversary Sake 15% polished rice from Akita Prefecture's newest sake rice, Momota and Ippozumi As the label says, it is the culmination of Ryoseki's traditions and new approaches cultivated at Hanayuup and Suitama. Not as gorgeous as Hanayuup, but it has a beautiful, fruity aroma like apples. The taste is a little mild at first, and there seems to be a bit of a blank space. After a while in the mouth, a beautiful, mellow sweet umami flavor develops. It reminds me of the beautiful and cute girls who used Ippozumi and Momota for the first time a few years ago. Compared to the previous Hanayuup, this sake has the mellow sweetness of the previous Hanayuup, but has been refined with high rice polishing to give it an elegant taste that is suitable for a high quality sake. A great sake that will definitely satisfy Hana Yuu fans!

Hanamaru's Junmai Daiginjo was only available in Aizan, but last year, Yamadanishiki has also been upgraded to the specs, and this year I was finally able to buy a Yongo bottle! The aroma is very gorgeous, but relatively simple, with an apple-like aroma and a bit of a pungent sensation. The taste is mellower than the aroma. The taste is mellower than the aroma, with a dense sweetness like apples with honey. Delicious! A little sour and not too sweet, but the aftertaste is a little sweeter than most Hana Yuups. It is just right for those with a sweet tooth, but those with a dry palate may find it a little too sweet. A good sweet sake with a mellow and deep sweetness that is typical of Hanamup.

Fourth bottle of Kijoshu this weekend. Looks the yellowest. The aroma is distinctly sour with a hint of plum. Slightly plum-like The taste has a mellow sweetness and a refreshing acidity, as is typical of kijo sake. It is more sour than Fukukomachi and has a nice sweet and sour taste. Dessert sake is good, but personally, I like this kind of balanced type. The same goes for Yonotori.

Kijoshu made with Junmai Daiginjo as part of the brewing water The aroma is relatively mild. Sweet aroma with a hint of ripe fruit The taste is rich sweetness that fits the image of kijoshu. It is sweet but easy to drink with a bit of apricot and plum acidity. Delicious! There have been a lot of kijoshu recently, but this is a highly recommended one if you want a dessert sake that is truly a kijoshu!

Yoshida Kurau's new product, which showed a very high quality kijoshu at the Noto Ouen-shu (Noto Support Sake) Kinkaku is a native rice of Noto that has recently been revived and is said to be five generations before Koshihikari rice. It was used for the first time last year, and this year it was finally made into a kijoshu! The aroma is strong and the taste is a little wild and sour. The taste is very unique! At first, the strong acidity and the sweetness of kijoshu make it taste sweet and sour for a moment, but it is quickly overridden by the rich umami and it tastes like regular junmai sake. It is a little surprising at first, but once you get used to it, you will find it easy to drink and delicious! They say it doesn't taste like a kijoshu, but it's also a great way to control the wild flavor of yamahai with kijoshu. If you want to try a new taste, I recommend this delicious sake!

The new sake season is coming and I need to save some space in my fridge. Another Yonotori that came out around the same time as Yonotori 10th Anniversary. The 10th anniversary one is a sparkling sake made by a clear process, but this one is a nigori sake made by adding lees and secondary fermentation. I was careful to open the bottle, but it opened normally even after a little mixing. The gas pressure of the latest Shinsei is considered to be Tenkaeru bottle>Champagne cork>Beer crown. The aroma is a little milky, lactic acid, and pear-like, which is common in nigori sake. It seems sweeter than Yonotori Spark, but not as sweet as Yonotori 10th Anniversary without the caramelized taste. The taste is quite rich, with the sweetness of nigori sake added to the sweetness that is typical of Yonotori. The acidity is less pronounced than regular Yonotori, but there is a slight bitterness from the lees instead, so the overall balance is maintained. A simple yet delicious sake reminiscent of the Shinmasa of four or five years ago.

Takachiyo's Oragami Summer Sake The aroma is like a fresh sweet and sour taste like a ramune The taste is clean but simple, with a sweet-savory flavor of rice. There is no pear-like flavor, which is typical of ogara-mi, and the sweetness is balanced by the bitterness of the lees. Although it is sweet, it is rather easy to drink. I was allowed to drink the supernatant, and the absence of lees eliminated the bitterness and brought the sweetness of the rice into full bloom. It is the kind of sake where you can enjoy the sweetness and deliciousness of the original Yonehara rice to the fullest.

This year EXTRA became Hakutsuru Nishiki, but this is still Snow Goddess EXTRA. The aroma is milder than expected. Beautiful aroma like white peach, typical of Jyushidai The taste is quite sweet at first. Then the sourness gradually emerges, and the overall impression is refreshing, with a slight sweet and sour nuance. This is the first time I've tasted a Yuki Megami Jyushiro, but it certainly is a delicious sake with a distinctive character and Jyushiro-ness.

Junmai Ginjo specs in Orikagami It's been four years since the last release, 2020. The nose is melon, banana and a hint of muscat. Fruity and slightly sweet. The taste is sweet like melon at first, but the acidity increases from the middle and the aftertaste is quite dry. It is a type of fruity dry wine. Easy to drink and delicious! It is quite rare to find a dry sake with a dry taste, especially when it is made with ogara-mi. While fruity, it is a good sake for a mealtime drink.

A blend of Pecora and La fée des fleurs with red yeast. It has a peachy color, but the alcohol content and sweet and sour taste are close to those of regular sake. Fruity aroma with strawberry and berry-like sweet and sour notes. The taste has some sweet and sour nuances, but overall it is a medium-bodied sake with a sake-like flavor. The texture is creamy with a hint of orikara, so the mouthfeel is soft yet rich, and the sake is very tasty and satisfying in spite of its light taste. This is not just a blend, but a good sake that really shows the potential of blended sake!

19 named for the Italian word for sheep. There was also a Pecora with Junmai Ginjo specs, but this blue bottle is a renewed Junmai Daiginjo with 35% Dewa Sanzu The aroma is apple-like and fruity. There is also a slight citrus acidity. In the mouth, it tastes slightly sweet and fruity like apples at first. From the middle, the acidity becomes stronger and finishes the taste, making it slightly dry. It is easy to drink and tastes like a 19. It can be enjoyed on its own, but since it is a relatively calm type of wine, the best way to enjoy it is with simple snacks.

Hishiko's summer sake, which was left for a year after mistakenly thinking it had been drunk The aroma is still very fresh, not at all like a year old sake. It smells like green apples and is fruity. The taste has a slightly nutty, aged flavor, but the refreshing acidity does not bother me too much. The overall balance is just right with a full-bodied flavor. It tastes much better than I expected. A good summer sake that is both refreshing and drinkable.

The label has a retro atmosphere. It is said to be the basic sake of Urakasumi. The aroma is only faint, but it is a classic aroma with a delicious rice flavor. The taste is clearer than expected, with a full-bodied rice sweetness and umami, but very mild and easy to drink. Although it is an alcoholic sake, the alcohol content is not high at 15%, so it is not very smooth, but the aftertaste is as refreshing as if you were drinking water. You can drink as much as you want! Personally, I wouldn't drink it on a daily basis, but it's a plainly delicious sake for people who drink it every day and feel like it goes along with their daily life.

Sake that won the highest gold medal at the San Francisco IWC and is served in ANA international lounges and the Dodgers VIP room All Yamada-Nishiki from Mito grown under contract The aroma is mild, with a classic rice and grain aroma. The taste is rich and full of sweetness and umami. You can clearly taste the original flavor of rice as if you were drinking rice soup. As expected from a daiginjo, the taste is very clean and pure, with no bitterness or other unpleasant tastes at all, and the acidity is kept quite low. It is my first time drinking this type of sake and I was a little surprised, but the more I drink it, the more I understand its depth. It seems to have great potential especially as a food sake, and it would be interesting to pair it with rice as a substitute.

A summer sake blending Hitogochi, Yamadanishiki, and Aizan Junmai Daiginjos with a lower alcohol content of 14%. The aroma is apple, but relatively mild and sweet. The aroma is apple, but relatively mild and not too sweet, giving it a refreshing summery taste. The taste is refreshing with a hint of umami, but overall it is quite light and refreshing. It is very easy to drink, just like drinking water. It is one of the most easy to drink sake I have ever had! This is the type of sake that I would drink on a hot day.

Isoboast's Blue Bottle Series Using only rice from the fields of Furuya, Nishido, and Tsuneda in the Tojo Akitsu district, the production area of Toku-A Yamadanishiki, this sake is like a single vineyard in wine! The aroma is gorgeous and complex. The aroma is fresh and fruity, with a hint of green melon, white flowers, herbs, and a hint of sweetness, as if the fruit is still in the process of ripening. The taste is quite full, with a refined sweetness and umami. Not only does it combine rice and melon flavors, but it also has a delicate and deep taste with just the right amount of alcohol sweetness and bitterness. It has a smooth mouthfeel without the stimulating spiciness of alcohol. Compared to the Isobojimas I have had so far, this sake seems to be a step above in quality! I said yesterday that I prefer Omachi to Yamada-Nishiki, but now I have to change my opinion.

The third bottle in the Pichika series. Sour&Bitter was just the right amount of sweetness, Sweet&Sour was as sweet as a lactic acid drink, but I wonder how sweet Extra Sweet really is! The aroma is lactic acid and pear-like, which is typical of sparkling sake. There is also a distinct sugary sweet smell. The taste was not so sweet at first due to the lactic acidity and carbonation, but soon the dense sweetness swelled up and it was still super sweet! The weak acidity makes it sweeter than ordinary cider, but the alcohol does not leave a strong taste in the mouth. It's usually tasty and dangerous, but on balance, I would only recommend it to people who usually prefer sweet drinks.

Comparison of Isobojimachi's Omachi Almost the same specs when it comes to acidity except for rice polishing ratio The aroma is the same blue melon type, but there is a distinct difference. Floral and alcoholic aroma can also be detected. The main taste is more pure and umami compared to Omachi 53. Then the sweetness of rice and alcohol comes out, and it finishes with the bitterness of alcohol. The taste is clean but also deep and rich, as is typical of Isoboast's daiginjos. Delicious! Compared to Isoboast's Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi's sweetness and umami of rice comes out more in the front, and it is more satisfying to drink, which I personally highly appreciate.
