Special Junmai made from special grade rice from Akaban Omachi The aroma is rather mild, but very fruity and clean with a green melon-like ginjo aroma. The taste is also very fruity with a full-bodied sweet flavor, but it is not the boldness that is typical of Omachi sake, but rather a very delicate and soft flavor. There is not much acidity or alcohol, but it is clear and refreshing, and the aftertaste is like drinking water, in a good sense. Very easy to drink and delicious! Although it is only Tokujun, the quality is usually on the level of Daiginjo. It is a good sake that clearly shows Isobojiman's careful craftsmanship and high technology.

Kamo Nishiki with Akita's Misato Nishiki Is it a coincidence that the theme color is the same as the Viridian of Shinsei? The aroma is a bit melon-like, but there is also a green apple-like aroma, again of the Capueti type. The ginjo aroma is relatively mild but clear and clean. The taste is very mild and at first it feels like drinking water. As it rolls around in the mouth a little, the fruity flavor gradually spreads. The sweetness and acidity are both moderate, emphasizing the delicate umami, and the taste is very elegant and clear. Easy to drink and delicious! It may not be so gorgeous for a high-end sake, but it is easy to understand and usually delicious!

Collaboration with the manga Space Brothers Characterized by a light taste to express the lightness of low gravity The alcohol content is also quite light at 11 The aroma is not so gorgeous, but it is fruity and moderately sweet like green melon. There is also a cool, slightly herbal aroma, which certainly gives it a light image. The taste is fruity with a light sweetness. It is very refreshing with a slight carbonation, and is very easy to drink with a clear flavor and no cloying taste at all. It is not a high-impact type of sake, but it is a delicious sake that you can easily drink anytime, which is typical of daily life.

Kangiku Ken Aizan for the second year Last year, we drank only raw sake, so this time it's fire-brewed. The aroma is very gorgeous! Fruity aroma like apple and peach with a slightly strong alcoholic sweet smell. The taste is characterized by its presence and gentle acidity. The sweet and umami taste gradually spreads in the mouth, but the acidity finishes it off nicely. Despite its mellow flavor, it has a cool and refreshing taste. Compared to Red Diamond's Aizan, Aizan has a very good balance of rich sweetness and ease of drinking, making it a delicious sake that can be drunk easily.

The second Hanpukai of 2024, Flax Cat Kai. It's been out a few times already, with oak and sparkling versions, but this time it's the highest white malted rice ratio ever, with no yellow malted rice used except for the sake mother. So to speak, it's like Nirvana Turtle's rice polishing challenge! The aroma has a strong acidity like lemon or grapefruit. The taste is honestly not so different from that of a normal flax cat. The acidity may in fact be stronger, but compared to high malic acid producing yeast or high acid sake such as sake mother sake, it is a marginal difference. If you think about it, the key point is that even the weak enzymatic power of white malted rice could produce sake properly, and the fact that the taste remained the same should be considered a great success. It has a strong acidity, but it also has a sweet and sour taste, and is deliciously sweet and sour, the usual flax cat!

Aizu is a series based on the concept of "brewing Aizu. I have only seen Daiginjo before, but it seems that the brand has been expanded and developed this year. The aroma is quite gorgeous. Fruity aroma with melon and a bit of citrus acidity. The taste is also fruity and mildly sweet and umami, but the acidity is relatively high, not quite sweet and sour, but refreshing and clean. It is very easy to drink and delicious! It is a delicious sake that surprised me as much as the first time I drank instrumental Masamune.

Sake made by adding the fourth stage of koji amazake and the fifth stage of sake mother to the regular three-stage brewing process for Daruma Masamune's old sake. Sake degree -25, acidity 3 Slightly sweet, sweet and sour taste can be expected. Although it is only six months old, the aroma is a little mature. Grain, caramel and honey sweetness. The taste is quite rich and sweet. It has a thick texture, almost syrupy. A bit of grain complexity and a bit of acidity accentuate the sweetness, but it is not monotonous. Delicious! A classic sweet sake, which is a bit rare nowadays. If you like sweet sake, you must try this one!

Lastly, Kitaya in Fukuoka Looks almost colorless. The yellow color of the other three bottles doesn't seem to have anything to do with the single can. The aroma is gorgeous and fruity. Ginjo aroma is apple-like with a hint of sweetness. The taste is the same apple-like fruity flavor, but not so sweet. So called fruity dry type Polishing ratio is 59%, so the rice is not polished that much, but the taste is quite clear and transparent. The quality is usually high and tasty.

The third bottle is Hikaritake from Saga. The label says Junmai, but the rice polishing ratio is 50%. The color is also yellow, but it is the lightest of the three. It has a fruity ginjo aroma like melon and a slightly strong alcohol taste. The taste is rather dry with a moderate sweetness. The main taste is a full flavor with a slight melon sensation, and while it is very drinkable, it is also clear and transparent. As one would expect from a Daiginjo spec sake! Very high quality and delicious! Don't underestimate it as a mere one-pack can!

Eiko-Fuji's first red yeast Sake strength -64 and acidity 10.5 The numbers may make it look sweet, but sake has a high acidity level of 4 or 5, and even wine usually has an acidity level of 8 or less, so I expect it to actually be sour. The aroma is slightly sour, like that of tomatoes. The taste is quite sour as expected. The sweetness is also quite good, but it is more sour than sweet and sour. It tastes like orange or lemon juice with a little sake flavor added. I like dry and sour red wine, so I think this is good, but if you don't like sourness, it might be a little too sour for you. It has the highest acidity of any sake I know, and it's not really a sake, but it's an interesting sake that challenges the limits of sour sake, so you should definitely try it if you're interested.

Next up is Nagasaki's Kinegawa Sake Brewery. Reimei was one of the company names before the merger, and now it is a pure rice brand using Yamadanishiki produced in Isahaya City. We helped to start the Reimei brand of Taiseki Brewery, the only sake brewery in Okinawa. This one also looks a little yellow. The aroma is mild. Sweet aroma with a hint of banana and melon The main taste is a rich rice sweetness. There is also a slight melon-like fruity flavor. The final taste has a slightly strong acidity that gives it a nice sharpness, but overall it is very mild and tasty. It can be enjoyed on its own, but it has a strong umami flavor, so I think it will be even more effective as a food sake.

JR Kyushu Collaboration of Souvenir Sake in a Single-Goupe Can From Oita Yurikuri Brewing Company Looks distinctly yellow. Maybe unfiltered? The aroma is strong banana with a hint of grain. The taste is neither modern nor classic, with a banana-like fruity flavor and a grain complexity. It has a rich rice sweetness and flavor, and it is not too sharp, so it is easy to drink. Not my type, but better than expected.

Sake given to me as a souvenir. The international shipping costs are not worth it, so I don't get a chance to drink cheap alcohol. The aroma is a little more floral than I expected. Aroma like rice with a slight ginjo aroma. The taste is mildly sweet and tasty, with no hint of alcohol, making it quite easy to drink. It is a little surprising that there is no bitterness at all. Simple taste with no impact or depth at all, but tasty as usual.

Refreshing aroma with a mild, slight smell of melon rind. The taste is rice-based and has a sweetness in spite of its super dryness. The taste is more of a classic type, but not heavy and easy to drink. It's just an ordinary tasty sake.

The third Yonotori Spark draft from this year's hanpukai! It was released as a stand-in for the Nirvana Kame Kai that failed to brew, so it is not so different from the regular Yonotori Spark. The only difference between the two is that the normal product is fire-aged and this one is a draft. The other hanpukai sakes are often recommended to be aged for 10 years, so let's open this regular one first! The aroma is less sweet and more acidic than the regular Yonotori. The taste is definitely dry for a Yonotori. It's not that it's not sweet, but it's less sweet than expected, and the sourness is comparatively sour with the addition of the acidity from the carbonation. There is also a woody flavor from the wood vat brewing process, which makes the taste quite complex and deep. The H-types and A-types are usually sweeter and more dangerous than the recent Shinmasa. I wonder if they made some adjustments to this one for the hanpukai. It's a slightly different but usually tasty sake that is typical of the Shinmasa hanpukai!

A fire-aged version of the active sake mother sake we drank the other day. It doesn't seem to be cloudy, so maybe it's not too cloudy, so maybe it's not too cloudy. It is not labeled sparkling because it is fire-aged, but the carbonation is very strong, so be very careful when opening the bottle! More violent than the recent Amaeru. The aroma is simply sweet and sour like a lactic acid drink without the pear-like aroma often found in nigori sake. It has the same sake mother, but it's totally different from the Bodai-izumi I had last week. It's almost like a sour&bitter sparkling sake Pichika by Yamana Shuzo! The taste is normal sweet and sour. The sourness is a little more pronounced and refreshing, making it very easy to drink. The active one was a little too sweet and gave the impression of being more of a sugar-sweetened beverage than a sake, but this one has a good balance and is delicious! Highly recommended as a low-alcohol sparkling sake!

Haruyo rice produced in Tango, Kyoto yeast Kyo-no-Hana and Kyo-no-Saki are used. The characteristic 4MMP smell of Shunyo is very strong. The aroma is often described as muscat or lychee-like, but it is quite disconcerting, perhaps because it is too strong or not sweet enough. The taste has a momentary sweetness from the alcohol, but overall it is quite dry and sharp. And the aroma of 4MMP has softened comparatively, so I can say it's fruity. Personally, I would classify it as fruity and dry. It has a special aroma that may not be to everyone's taste, but once you get used to it, I think it's a fairly tasty sake. I recommend using a sake cup with a wide mouth like an inokuchi or a flat sake cup instead of a wine glass.

Sake rice developed to be grown in northern Hyogo Prefecture Parentage is Yamada-Nishiki, but the characteristics are an early maturing variety instead of Gohyakumangoku. The variety name was written in Roman characters for the first time in Japan with the aim of exporting. Yamana Sake Brewery's Hyogo Sake 85 is available in sparkling, kijoshu and sherry cask in addition to the regular version. It is aged in oak barrels and has a pale yellowish color. The aroma is sweet apple, still close to sake, but it has a concentrated sweetness like raisins and a slightly smoky woody flavor. The slightly smoky woodiness definitely shows the influence of the sherry casks. The taste has a stronger dried fruit and oakiness, and is more reminiscent of a sherry cask whiskey with water than sake. The sweetness and umami that is typical of sake starts to emerge from the mid-part, and the tannin astringency finishes the taste. Overall, the sake is not very sake-like, but the balance of barrel aging is superb, making it a very drinkable and tasty sake.

The last one is Nanamizu. 55% polished rice but out of the normal range, so it is a normal sake. It looks yellow, so it is assumed to have matured to some extent. The aroma is still fruity but not fresh. Instead, it has a little honey taste. The taste is sweet with a bit of graininess. Not a bad aging result for a fruity sake, but I'm not sure it tastes quite the same as the original. Still, it is interesting that the degree of maturity is so different for the same production time and under the same storage conditions. If it's not the right sake, it's better to drink it as soon as possible. Since this is a one-time-only limited edition sake, I'll note the description on the back label: Ripe passion fruit aroma. Juicy flavor mixed with a crisp, clear acidity, making it easy to drink.
