Excellent workmanship, isn't it? There is no mistaking Kangiku, but it is also a wonderful work of art. It is gorgeous and light, and you can drink as much as you want. It is good.

It's been a long time since I've had a "Jyushiyo". It's good as it should be. The price has gone up so much recently, even at the regular price, that it has become difficult to get a hold of it, but I think it is unrivaled.

Brewed in December 2021. It has a little bit of hiney aroma, but it has a nice firm flavor and a certain umami that spreads slowly. I paired it with ayu fish wrapped in kelp, both of which went down a treat. It was a good match.

It is a slightly dry, rich sake with a good balance of umami and acidity. It is a good sake that does not interfere with the meal at all.

I was told to be careful when opening the bottle because it was cloudy, but when I got careless, the bottle flew open with great force. I was lucky that the contents did not spill out. It has a soft sweetness and is delicious.

The Yamada-Nishiki from the Shippuda Sake I drank the other day was so good that I bought a Bizen Yumachi. It also has a nice fruitiness, but perhaps it is the low alcohol content that makes it pale. The Yamada-Nishiki was good at 13%, but I prefer it at a higher alcohol content.

This is the first time I've had Sansho. Moderate gasiness and mild flavor. A little sourness. Well-balanced and delicious.

This is fantastic. This is the #1 flavor of the year. The aroma is soft and light, deep and fresh. The taste is gentle and has just the right amount of gas and umami that you want to roll around on your tongue forever. It is a surprise.

At a Japanese restaurant, I unexpectedly encountered an invisible pink unicorn. I saw it for the first time. Together with it, I also saw a Yonotori eating this year's Shinsei Hanpukai Akane Peacock. I was a bit impressed. Compared to the strong flavor of the Akane Kujaku, the Hizaru has a mild and clear taste. I wonder if I will ever taste it again.

It is priced at less than 4,000 yen with a 33% reduction of Dewa Sanzan. The taste is also good, with more than enough umami!

The liquor store I usually go to had purple space for the first time in stock. It certainly has a sweetness and acidity reminiscent of pineapple. It was a good, well-balanced sake.

When opened, it was a bit pungent, but after a while, the umami flavor spread rapidly, but moderately, making it an excellent match with meals.

It is a honjozo (pure brewed sake) priced at less than 3,000 yen, but it is outstanding. I bought it on the liquor store's recommendation. This is amazing. The umami, the aroma, the breadth of flavor, everything is of a high standard. I was blown away.

This sake is produced by a sake brewery and brewed by Toyo Bijin. It is released only once a year in spring. I have no idea what the specifications are, but this year's Harumaki no Sake is also the best, overflowing with flavor.
