Purchased at my usual liquor store with mansaku flowers. I thought this would be my New Year's Eve sake. As last year, I am thankful in many ways. It has been a while since I drank it, so I don't remember much about it, but I am sure that it was as clear, sweet, and delicious as last year's sake. The reason for the long interval was that I started feeling sick around the 4th, and the next day I had a fever of 40 degrees Celsius and tested positive for influenza. I didn't think I would catch it; Naturally, I had no time to drink alcohol... The fever went down, but I still could not drink the cough medicine I was still taking because alcohol is strictly prohibited. The half of the alcohol I opened on New Year's Day has been left unopened for more than a week. I wonder what it tastes like?

This is also purchased at Fujihara Sake Specialty Store. This is a liquor store that is very helpful in providing accurate recommendations when you tell them what you like. I had had a very good sake called "Kozo-mori" in the past, so I chose Jungin Nama-zake for sure. Although I knew it would be a good choice, the fruity-sweet flavor that reminded me of citrus fruits was too good to be true. It is a good sake, but it is also dangerous because when the glass is empty, I unconsciously try to pour... This is the second year since I started Sake-no-wa. I don't know how long I can keep doing this, but I wish you a happy New Year ^-^.

When I heard about this sake, I wanted to try it, so I called the distributor to check the stock. I was told that it is made with white malted rice and tastes like white wine, so I took a sip and sure enough, it tasted like that...I haven't had white wine for years, so I may be speaking out of turn...^-^; It was delicious chilled, so I would like to try heating the other bottle. I would like to try heating the other bottle (I bought two bottles by mistake).

When I went to buy it, I asked him if he had any good sake, and he let me try some and bought this one as well. I hadn't had a slightly carbonated sake since that one, but this one was fresh, sweet and tasty because it was a draft sake. It tasted even better because I had broken my several-day drinking habit to avoid drinking it until my cold symptoms subsided. My nose and throat are still not back to normal at the moment.

A friend of mine was going on a trip to several hot springs in Gunma, so I asked him to buy me some Gunma sake. I asked him to choose a fire-brewed sake just in case, and it came in a big box and looked expensive, but it was safe to say that it was only about 1,800 yen. I opened the bottle right after the machine and drank it, so my first impression was a bit light, but after the next day I enjoyed it as a sweet, clear, fruity sake. I would like to try some of this sake. Or rather, I would like to dig for more Gunma sake.

Sake No. 3 from Miyoshiya Sake Shop: Takachiyo Sake Brewery was also selected because it is not often seen in the neighborhood. Takachiyo sake is delicious, so I figured I wouldn't miss it; It is also a fruity sake with a moderate sweetness, and I enjoyed it. According to Tomoyuki Kumagai, it seems to be a trial product, and I guess I was lucky to have it in my hands. I would like to drink more Takachiyo and Makiko, but they are not sold near me... I missed J&N's post about his visit to Oto, so I looked back at my own post when I was there, and it seems that he drank not only No.6 but also Flax Cat (which was in the picture). I like to drink rare sake at an izakaya once in a while, but I prefer to drink at home because it's easier.

Hello, Jay and Nobby! Yes, it was Mr. Oto. I haven't been able to drink Niimasa since then, but that's OK, because there are many other good ones. Utsunomiya seems to have many good liquor stores and izakaya (Japanese style pubs).

I was originally planning to buy three kinds of Sake at Miyoshiya Sake Shop, but I changed my mind when I saw the wide variety of Sake in the store. I was sure that the sake would be good because I had read the posts of the predecessors at Sake-no-Wawa, but it was far better than I had expected! I can only say that it is sweet and fruity with my poor writing skills, but I feel that it is one of the best in its lineage...just my personal opinion. I would like to follow this brand. The new back dungeon in Dracula 3 was so painful that I got mad.

Senkori, which claims to return to Edo in the renewal. I was thinking about where to buy it when I saw the name Miyoshiya Sake Brewery mentioned in a sakelabo video, so I decided "I have to buy it here first" and visited there for the first time in about 10 months. I had a chance to talk a little with the brewer about his 20-year relationship with the company, but I regretted that I forgot to ask him something important. I was expecting a classic before the renewal, but the bubbles were unexpected. The dryness in the mouth gave me the impression of the snowman we had last year, but it was delicious with a citrus-like acidity, which is typical of Senkyoku. I would definitely like to drink the other two bottles. Recently, I have been playing the remake of Dracula 3, but it is a problem that I rapidly become sleepy when I play it after drinking it; It's my fault for playing after drinking.

I headed to the store around 2:00 p.m. on the day of arrival, but was told that it had not arrived yet. To kill time, I went to see an ophthalmologist whom I had not seen for a long time, but it had been 6 or 7 years and his chart had been destroyed ^^^. Due to a shortage of staff, the afternoon reception was only one hour, and I felt uneasy about the future of Japanese society. After the doctor's visit, I headed to the liquor store again, and after a while it came in and I was able to purchase it safely, but there was something that bothered me a little (not a good story, so I will describe it later). It may have been because I had abstained from drinking for a few days due to a medical checkup, but it tasted insanely good. The sweet and delicious silky taste was the same as last year, but it tasted better than last year, and I finished it in two days, which is unusual for me. I would like to repeat it, but there are so many notable sakes these days... like Sengoku. When I purchased this sake, the manager told me that I should chill it more at home before drinking it, and that it arrived by room temperature delivery from Seino (Transport). He said that there was a cooler in the package which was almost meaningless.... Is it normal to ship fresh sake from a brewery to a liquor store at room temperature instead of cool delivery, because it's November, or because it won't be a problem for a day or so? I didn't think it was deteriorating, which is fine, but it did bother me a bit.

Hiyokizakura Sandesi was left in the fridge because I forgot when I bought it. I remember the reason I purchased it was because it was a sake from Tottori, a prefecture I had not yet tasted. I would like to drop by again if I have a chance because they had a wide variety of rather small volume bottles. I was also allowed to sample something, but I forget the brand name... I can feel the umami of the rice, but to be honest, it seems to be a light and dry sake with a watery impression.

Last year, it was in stock around noon, and when I visited around 1:00 p.m., expecting it to be in stock around the same time this year, it was still not. While killing time for a while, I looked at the Nihon-ya Twitter feed and saw a bulletin about its arrival, so I bought it safely around 2:00 p.m. Three people, including myself, came to buy it as fast as they could. Three people, including myself, came to buy it as fast as they could.

I am not sure how it differs from last year's, but this year's was sweet and tasty, fresh and very tasty.

I wanted to try some Miyoshikiku, so I did some research and found out that the closest store to me seemed to be Kamasuya in Hachioji, so I visited there and bought some. I had other things to do, and I visited a liquor store I had never been to before, so it must have been a good experience. I'm sure it was a good experience. I heard that Miyoshigiku is said to have a strong taste, but this one had a nice, mildly sour taste, probably because it had been cooked. It was a bit peculiar, though. The label is cute and unique. It's a little scary, but I'd like to try a sharp one with a lot of peculiarities.

Hello, freelancer! Thanks for the trip to the liquor store 😌I'm sure the new store will be a lot of fun 🤗I thought Tokushima would be filled with Miyoshigiku 🤔 but I've been drinking Naruto Tai and Yoshimizu and haven't tried Miyoshigiku yet 🥲.

Hello, Jay and Nobby! Visiting a liquor store can be fun, but at first glance, the atmosphere in the store can often be very tense ^^; I myself was in Tokushima first for Naruto Tai... I miscalculated that there were no liquor stores that stocked Miyoshigiku at all!

I bought it together with Denshogiku. It was a test brew with no back label or bar code, so I thought it was a rarity. However, I had only had a taste of Yukino Kayasha once before... I had an image of mellow umami-kuchi (flavorful taste) in the past, but this one, while having a sake degree of +2.0, is fruity and light, and I felt it was a type of sake that I could easily drink. I would appreciate it if this sake becomes a standard item and becomes more accessible.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby ^-^. If it is a test brew from a brewery that makes no mistakes, I feel a certain sense of security. It was actually delicious, so that's even better. But it was over 2,000 yen... I guess it can't be helped that it is from Yamada in the special A district?

Purchased at Nihon-ya. I had two objectives for the day: to buy Densho-Kiku and Shisui no Dawn reservations, so I had to make a stop, but the first time I visited, the store was closed. The price had gone up about 50 yen since last year, but considering the recent price hikes, I guess it can't be helped. This was the first time for me to check in again with the same brand, but I knew it was good, and when I actually drank it, I found it to be sweet and tasty, with a slight effervescence, and it tasted great. I wrote something similar in last year's check-in, and it makes me realize how little progress I've made (lol). It took me 3 days to finish it this year.

This was also purchased at Sake Watanabe. Loman was also at the top of the sake series that I wanted to try, and here it finally came true: there were three varieties on the line, but I chose this one, which had the most recent production date. I took a sip, expecting it to be a dense, sweet-tasting sake, but instead I was pleasantly surprised to find a clear, refreshing taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and fruity flavor. It is like the juicy dry version of "Kudokibe Jr." (this is my personal impression). (This is my personal impression.) I would like to drink another label later.

Purchased at Watanabe sake shop. I felt nostalgia for this area around Yahashira because I used to visit pet stores here when I lived in Matsudo during my junior high school days because a rakugo artist friend of mine kept tropical fish. One of the guppy stores closed down a long time ago... The name of the fish makes me imagine it to be light and dry (in the Echino sense), but I have bought it after reading your post on Sake-no-wa, and it is still sweet and tasty. The temperature has suddenly dropped recently, but it seems as if spring has come to my heart or not.

The second sake I bought at Fujihara Sake Specialty Store, which I visited because it is a Narumi distributor. I had been planning to buy it when I saw it since I saw KIRATASO's post half a year ago. It's too painful that Haradaya in Ichikawa (a distributor) seems to have had an internal dispute and is still closed... I had seen the post, but had almost forgotten about the taste, so I didn't really know what it tasted like, but when I put it in my mouth, it was juicy and delicious, reminiscent of sour citrus fruits. There are still some good brands of Chiba sake as well, and there were two others in the lineup that I would like to buy.

I bought this bottle when I bought Shuroku at Furuya Soy Sauce Brewery. This one was also found chilling in a corner of the fridge. I'm sorry I really completely forgot about it 😖. It's a very refreshing sake with a clear taste, as is typical of Niigata sake. It has a refreshing taste and is good as a food sake. It was a new experience for me that I didn't feel any kind of strange sweetness from the aluzoe. This kind of sake is totally fine.

I checked the liquor stores in the neighborhood again and found that there were quite a few different kinds, so I bought some at a liquor store that I visited anyway. Among the four brands introduced to me, I chose this one, which I thought I had seen at Sake-no-Wa. Of the remaining three, two were Kouji and Kangiku. The first day after opening the bottle, I felt it was slightly difficult to drink, but it was a normal sweet-alty-fruity sake that was very tasty. I am grateful to the owner for accurately recommending my favorite sake. When I told him what I liked, he just said, "I like Nabeshima," or something like that. I was just saying, "I like Nabeshima." The fact that Kangiku and Koshi are not served here means that I am a small fish as a resident of Chiba Prefecture.
