Comparison of nigori sake from Wakayama's favorite brands (1) We compared nigori sake from two of our favorite brands, Minakata and Chokyu. First, let's start with Minakata 😄. The first one has a fresh and fruity aroma like apples and a strong fizzy feeling. It has a full, sweet flavor and a crisp, refreshing taste, and is just as delicious as one would imagine 😍. It's been quite a while since I've had Nanpo, but I don't remember it ever being out of place and I think it's a good brand with a high level of quality 😁.

[Power spots for good fortune: ⛩️] The first Kaiun to be drunk in a long time. All Yamada Nishiki, unfiltered raw only at this time of the year. ✌️ It is sweet from the top aroma, and is actually more fruity and sweet-tasting than one might imagine. It has a fresh, slightly effervescent feel typical of nama-shu, and the sweetness and powerful umami in the attack, combined with the smooth acidity in the finish, make it easy to drink and simply delicious😍. I first encountered Kaiun about 10 years ago when I was not yet hooked on sake, when I paired it with sushi at a sushi restaurant in Ito and it was amazingly delicious 😁. It's a brand I remember and I still want to drink it regularly 😊.

I've brought Mr. Super Rare with me. Outside of my hometown, this rare sake is only available by reservation at Kagataya Sake Brewery in Tokyo and Kadoya Sake Brewery in Osaka 😲. I had been through a few years since I knew it existed, but when I saw Rafa's rave reviews last year, I decided to buy it this year 😁. The aroma is mild but sweet, reminiscent of honeyed apples 🍎. The soft sweetness is felt first, followed by the richness and umami that overflows. The aftertaste is slightly spicy and very drinkable and very tasty 🥰. I'll be buying this again next year 😄.

No.1 popular bottle of Murayu 😆]. Murayu Kameguchiri is only available at this time of the year. It has a mild fruity aroma 🥭 and a fresh, slightly effervescent feel, with a soft mouthfeel that makes it very easy to drink. It has a juicy sweetness on the attack, but the aftertaste is clean and spicy with a strong alcohol taste. A gorgeous bottle with a great drinking experience 😁. I paired it with yellowtail teriyaki, and it matched very well because this sake has the strength to go head to head and not be defeated 😋.

[INTENTIONAL FOUL 😝] Sorry for the old terminology... I'm from the slam dunk generation. This is my third foul drink in a row (©T-Kaji). Foul but medal-worthy taste 🏅 (but still foul) A little less Ori this year? (Or maybe it's just my imagination) The taste is the same as always, with a fruity aroma like pear🍐, strong fizziness, and a good sweetness. It's wine yeast, but without the weird sweet and sourness that I don't like, so I can gobble it up 😊. After crab cream croquettes the year before last and soup curry last year, this year's foul marriage is an omelette with rice 🥚. Well, there is no reason why they don't go well together 😋.

[Last year's No. 1 is already back 😍] We got another bottle of the most memorable bottle of 2023 at the end of the year👍. It has a higher alcohol content than the Gorin we had one year ago, and the rich, mature taste is even stronger and richer. It is not very sweet, but it is full of a thick, honey-like flavor, and is still one of my favorites. I have been avoiding Nouguchi because of its high price, but if I can get this much satisfaction, I will have to buy it outside of my hometown 😅... 😅.

Already this year's No.1 candidate appears❗❗❗ I saw the sticker on the back of the bottle and decided to buy it immediately. I love sake that has been aged in ice temperature for almost a year 😍. The top aroma is mild and white ball type. It has a fairly robust umami and a slight matured taste that lingers in the aftertaste that is right up my alley ⚾. Mild and easy to drink with a sense of maturity, it's a real treat 😄. It seems to go well with all kinds of Japanese food, but I loved it with scallops grilled in butter and soy sauce, which is full of flavor 😋. It's only February, but I'm already happy to have found a bottle that will be my personal No.1 this year 🥰🥰.

Good morning, Chanmaya P. 😃 This was the one the waiter enthusiastically recommended to another customer at a familiar restaurant I visited yesterday! I didn't go through with it because I was looking for another sake, but if it's this year's No.1 candidate, I'll have to bring it back next time...

Yes, I have a ministry. I've been wondering about it for a while. Chanmaya P. thanks a lot & good morning 🌅. I didn't know there was a draft sake! (Was it originally only fire-aged?). I wonder if it's Yamahai? I'm so curious!

Good evening, Chanmaya P. 😊. I was curious to find it because of the rave reviews, I bought the regular version and am drinking it tonight. Delicious. I'm curious about the "ice-aged for almost a year" version, 😅

I heard that Sakaeran also sells a limited amount of raw sake every year! I've always been curious about this brand, but I've never tried it.

Hiraccio, the store I bought it from only had this version, so I didn't know there was a regular version of the sake 😅. I drank it up so quickly, I'm considering getting another 😁.

Red Beko✕Red Echigo🐂] Aka Echigo was purchased for the first time in three years. It has a fresh, apple-like aroma on the nose. The attack is full of umami, followed by a firm spiciness. The overall impression is mellow, and the alcohol taste that spreads after finishing the bottle makes it very satisfying to drink 😆. This is addictive flavor 😄. I paired it with sukiyaki, which is a very punchy sake, so it matched well without being overpowered 😋.

Nigori Sake (Japanese rice wine) First time drinking Chokyu's nigori 😊. I always buy Chokyu when I see the new label ✌. The ori is quite a bit more and has a strong fizzy feel to it. It has a lot of umami and a hint of sweetness that is typical of Chokyu, and yet it has a clean dryness that makes it a dangerous sake that you can drink with gusto 🤭. The impression is quite similar to Hirotogawa's nigori👍 It goes well with western food, and the omelette was a nice match 😋.

It's different from the impression I had on my own, but it's good 😆. I have never had a chance to drink Kitajima until now. Limited edition unfiltered raw sake directly pumped ✌️ The top aroma is mild but sweet. It is as fresh and crisp as the specs, with a moderate sweetness but very clean acidity and a clean finish 😄. I had imagined it to be a bit more robust, but it is juicier than I expected 🥤. However, the sweetness is not outstanding, and the flavor and acidity are strong and well balanced 🥰.

Sour cream 寫楽] 寫楽's seasonal, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake: ✌️ The aroma is like a mixture of white eggs and banana🍌, with a reasonably strong effervescence. It has a somewhat creamy flavor that cuts through with acidity. The hint of aroma is also banana-like🍌. The sweetness increases from the third day after opening the bottle, giving it a more rounded impression 😄. It has been a while since I drank 寫樂 at home, but it is a popular brand and is easy to understand 🥰.

[White triple star 😁] Fully made-to-order, medium-order version of the triple star. It has a sweet aroma like ripe melon🍈 with a slight effervescence and is very fresh. The mellow flavor with soft sweetness fills the mouth, and the aftertaste is sharp with sourness and spiciness. Very well-balanced flavor, very drinkable and very tasty😍😍. I paired it with chicken nanban this time, but I think fried foods with a slight sourness would go well with it 😋😋.

Furusato Tax: Hakuro Taruzu Drinking Comparison (2) Drinking comparison of 2 bottles of Jun Daigin set of Hakuro Taruzu with the Furusato tax return gift from Tsuruoka city. ✌️ The second bottle is Rashinban, my personal No.2 brand from last year. Ordered again this year with Furusato tax return 😂. This is an ice-aged Jun Daigin made from the beautifully named Yuki-Onogami sake rice, polished to 33%. The top aroma is tropical fruit🥭 type. On the palate, the sweetness and umami are firm, but the finish is quick and curiously refreshing. The aftertaste is full of ripeness and spiciness, and the taste is delicious from start to finish.

Furusato Tax: Hakuro Taruzu Drinking Comparison (1) We compared 2 bottles of Hakuro Taruhu Jun Daigin set with the Hometown Tax return gift from Tsuruoka City. ✌️ First, let's start with Dewa Sanzan 😄. The aroma is fruity with a hint of sourness. The label says it is mellow and umaguchi, and while it is certainly umaguchi, it is characterized by its sharpness, leaving the impression of acidity and dryness in the aftertaste. It has a strong sense of transparency and is both mildly sweet and spicy, making it a good mid-meal sake. It has a wide strike zone for temperature, and can be served cold, of course, but it also shows its potential at temperatures that are close to room temperature.

Ko Tatsu vs. Cho Ichi Ryu (2) Aomori Sake Zodiac Bottle Drinking Comparison 🐲. Both are the same 50% polished rice of Hanasou, also pun intended 😁. Tasake following Hato Masamune. The top aroma is also gorgeous apple 🍎. I really love the smell of Tasake💘 The attack is a little subdued, with a slight bubbly feeling, and the Hato Masamune has a sweeter taste, but the Tasake is stronger from there. The aftertaste is clean, bitter and spicy. It is truly a top-notch and delicious sake, and the pun on the bottle is true 😁.

The top aroma is apple🍎 and there is almost no sense of fizz. There is a gorgeous sweetness on the attack at the moment of drinking, which is quickly broken up by a slight sweet-sourness and spiciness. This was my first time drinking Hato Masamune, but all Aomori sake is delicious 😄.

[Good thing I'm in a hurry 💨]. If you find it in a store, you want to hurry up and buy it before it runs out 🏃. From the moment the bottle is opened, you can smell the sweet aroma of pear 🍐. The fizziness is a little stronger, and it is full of the freshness of nama-zake. It is sweet and full of flavor, but thanks to the effervescence and crisp acidity, it is surprisingly refreshing and good to drink 😍. After about the 4th day, the fizziness almost disappears and the sweet and sourness becomes a little more pronounced, so you might want to hurry up and finish it 😁.

Fresh Oroku It is a new sake, which is quite rare among Ohroku, which is basically shipped after maturing 😆. This is the first time I've ever had an unaged Oroku ✨. Not much of an overtone, but a bit of greenish grassy aroma 🌿. The taste is full of minerality, with a sharp spiciness and acidity. Fresh and tasty dry sake, but I think it lacks some characteristics for an Ohroku 😅... This bottle reminded me again that I want my Ohroku to have a fresh and ripe taste👍.

[The theory that sake jackets almost never miss 😍] This is the first time I bought and drank it properly. I bought a packet of the beautiful snow label 😁. But this is delicious ❗ It is fresh, has a moderate chirichiri-ness and a hint of sweetness, and has a crisp aftertaste. It is easy to drink with a slight effervescence and does not make you tired, so I think it is the perfect sake to drink while lounging around with Osechi as a snack 😊.

Happy New Year, Chanmaya P. 🎍. I look forward to working with you again this year 🤲. It's true that you can't go wrong with a jacket: ❗️ I guess that's why they put so much effort into label design, because they are so confident!

Akememe kotoyoro 2024🎍] I bought this Tateno River zodiac bottle as a birthday present and New Year's gift for my father. It is a juicy, sweet and sour sake with a light mouthfeel, just as I expected 😁. It's not the type of sake I would normally buy, but my father likes this type of sake and it's suitable for New Year's Day, so it's perfect for drinking at my parents' house when I go home 😄. I'll be posting again this year as I go along, so if you can take a look, please let me know 🙇. I hope the damage from the earthquake in Noto is as little as possible 🙏.

Akemae, Pon-chan! I bring sake with me every year when I go back home for New Year's, and it's fun to choose from here too. I actually have a zodiac sign bottle of Tasake, but I wanted to drink that alone so I decided not to bring it 😁.
