ニ五郎(ニゴロウ)
Today was the main shrine of the OSAKA Tenjin Festival (the day when fireworks were to be displayed). The area will be very crowded, so we did not go to see the fireworks. I drank a one-cup "Hanabi" from Omine Sake Brewery, which is my favorite brewery in the history of Japan. It was still delicious. Great job, Omine! The water source is "Benten Pond," one of the 100 best water sources in Japan, and the water is very clean. The sake is made in a place where the water is very clean, and it is as easy to drink as water. Despite the fact that the sake is made in a place with very clean water, it is as easy to drink as water. Incidentally, there are three kinds of one-cup fireworks patterns. I got three kinds on 07/13 (Sat.), so there are only two kinds left. I will drink them with midsummer. === Oumine/One-cup Fireworks=== Date drunk: 2024/07 Date of drinking:2024/07/25(Thu) Date of purchase:2024/07/13(Sat) Price:385 yen(100ml) Rice polishing ratio: Undisclosed Alcohol content:14.5%(undiluted) Manufacturer: Daimine Shuzo K.K.

Impression: From the perspective of the quest for low alcohol, it has a strong alcoholic aroma, but I managed to drink it because of its rounded, angular taste. On the palate: No sweetness, acidity, or fruity notes. The impression is that it is more like a classic ginjo modern. I had it as a food sake, but the presence of KID was too strong (personal impression by a low-alcohol seeker). ==Kido/KID Junmai-shu One-cup == Price: 341 yen including tax *As of 2024/05/18 (Sat.)

You can feel the careful attention that went into every drop. Impression: It is a wonderful sake that can be enjoyed as a food sake or as a main course. Design: The mermaid princess by Misaki Tanaka is depicted on the bottle. As in the fable, the bottle and sake embody "essential things and love" that are pure and fleeting and disappear. It is a wonderful work of art that makes us think about the essence and philosophy of what it means to live. ==Ohmine / Summer's coming (Ohmine3train:Ohmine3grain)== Price: 3,190 yen including tax *As of 2024/04/27 (Sat.)

Intuition: Sweetness < bitterness, astringency, gasiness, strong presence Impression: As I am in search of sweet and tasty, low-alcohol sake, it was not a good match for me (no repeat purchase). Special note: Because it is a collaboration with the popular sake brewer Shinmasa (Shinmasa Kyokai No. 6 yeast), which is difficult to obtain, we were limited to purchasing two bottles, and the purchase ended as soon as they were sold out. The medal on the bottle is reversible (Shinsei side and Kaze no Mori side). ===Kaze no Mori / Respect for No.6, 2023 Price: 1,980 yen including tax(*)Purchased on 2024/04/06 (Sat) ■Content: 500ml ■Yeast: No.6 yeast Rice: Nara Prefecture/Akitsuho (grower: Tsunenaga Muneoka) Brewing water:Ultra soft water, deep groundwater from the Katsuragi mountain range (hardness: around 250mg/ℓ) ■Fermentation time: 32 days ■Since this sake is delicately designed, please enjoy it by the end of June Sake: Nara-shu Junmai-shu Unfiltered unpasteurized raw salmon Ingredients : Rice(domestic), Rice malt(domestic) 100% Akitsubo produced in Nara prefecture ■Polishing ratio 70%.

On a quest for low-alcohol sake. Found it in the sake section of the supermarket and got it! The moment I opened the bottle and transferred it to a glass: it already had almost no pizzazz. The catchphrase was "a refreshing sake soda that is clean and not sweet. It's definitely not sweet. It was definitely not sweet. It tasted like carbonated water without any Ki. While modern sake is gaining popularity, we can feel Nihon Zakari's challenge. ==Nihon Zakari JAPAN SODA=== Price: 248 yen (including tax) Price: 248 yen (excluding tax) Name: Japanese sake (sparkling) Content: 180ml (bottle can) Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic), carbonic acid Alcohol content: 7 or more but less than 8 Producer: Nippon Zakari Co.

In my search for low-alcohol sake, I got a bottle of pink muddy sake during the spring sales season on 04/01 (Mon.) and waited in the fridge - finally opened the bottle. I finally opened the bottle. I have now conquered both of the twin low alcohol sake "Sanuki Kuraudai" (2024/03/10) and "Niwa no Uguisu Doburoku (limited time doburoku pink)" (2024/05/03). Sanuki Kuraudai, which is like yogurt with a sour taste The less acidic amazake-like "Niwa no Uguisu Doburoku Pink" (2024/05/03) We are now deeply impressed by the pleasure and depth of sake. You can drink this one like a juice. I had it with salmon sushi along with the salmon pink color! I will definitely repeat the same experience. I want to keep this sake in my refrigerator (doburoku pink is only available for a limited time, so I want to get the regular doburoku). ====Yingin doburoku pink==== Price: 1,879 yen including tax (1,700 yen without tax) Item name:Nagarizake Alcohol content: 9 degrees Ingredients : rice(domestic), rice malt(domestic) Storage Method:Keep in a cool and dark place.

I tried a sake from Yamaguchi Prefecture, this time Ottersai (Junmai Daiginjo 45). I am weak against sake, and my limiter is around 10 degrees ALC, but I was able to drink Ottersai 45 easily. Intuition: Mild sweetness in the mouth and a refreshing ALC feeling that goes away quickly. It has an ALC of 15 degrees, but it is easy to drink. (This may be due to the fact that the rice is polished to 45%.) I had it as a mealtime sake with dinner (Japanese food). It seems to support the delicate taste of Japanese food by adding shades. I would like to keep a bottle of Otters in my refrigerator at all times. I'm sure I'll drink it again! ==Ottersai/Junmai Daiginjo 45 Price: 1,815 yen (tax included) Contents: 720ml Name: Sake Alcohol content: 15 Polishing ratio: 45 Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic) Producer: Asahi Shuzo Corporation (2167-4 Otogoshi, Shuto-cho, Iwakuni-shi, Yamaguchi)

It was the first time for us to drink Beaumichel, and we are very happy to repeat the experience. Do not be careless when opening the bottle: Although it was not as difficult as the opening of the Terada Honke "Musuhi", this time we were about to lose the sake because of the bubbles. As soon as the bottle was opened after moving it up and down to even out the sediment, the bubbles came gushing out all the way to the opening. I was in a great hurry. I quickly closed the lid and got away with it. It was bad. Foam: The size of the grains is medium and the texture is quite sharp. Intuition: The presence is differentiated by the sweet and sour taste with a clear uneven presence. Low-alcohol Sanuki Kuraudei-style lactobacillus juice-like taste. I experienced firsthand that modern sake is on the rise. I would like to try other lineups. ==Beau Michelle/Cotton Candy Beau Michelle/cotton candy Contents: 500ml Price: 1,815 yen (including tax), 1,650 yen (excluding tax) Limited draft sake Polishing ratio: 60 (100% sake brewing rice) Alcohol content: 8 Producer: Banno Shuzo Co.

I am excited to try Sentori for the first time! Intuition: Easy to drink due to its low alcohol content (ALC 10 degrees). Aroma: Slightly sour aroma like wine (subjective). Mouthfeel: Sourness followed by mild sweetness. Subsequent changes: The acidity fades out delicately like a sparkler. Impression: I could feel the sincerity of the maker's side from each drop. So I took it with care and attention. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to taste it, as it is difficult to obtain Senkou in our area." I hope to be able to drink "Snowman" and "Hello World" someday. ==Sentori Green Naturals A supernatural sake revived using an ancient technique.

Anyway, I was impressed by the beautiful spring-like color! Aroma: No strong stimulation due to the low alcohol content. Sense in the mouth: Exquisite balance of sourness and sweetness with a fine, squashy texture. Gap between sight and taste: I thought it might taste like strawberry, but it's not (it was a common nigori sake). The taste of the sake is very good, but it's not a strawberry flavor (it's a common nigori sake). I learned from experience that if you go for it with the same saltiness as Sanuki Kuraudai (ALC 6 degrees), you will get into trouble. Impression: I would like to face my constitution (weak against alcohol), narrow down to low-alcohol drinks that I think are suitable for me, and challenge myself further. ==Snowdrift in Oze (Junmai Daiginjyo/Peach color nigori) == Price: 1,980 yen (tax included) Contents: 720ml Special note: No coloring agents of any kind are used.

I started to get interested in exploring the sake breweries of Yamaguchi Prefecture. I asked the owner of a local sake store about otters. He said, "Otters tend to focus on the smaller polished rice percentage, but I personally recommend 39. He advised me, "There is a view that over-polishing is not interesting. There is also a view that too much polish is not interesting. I found a bottle of Otters 39 and bought it immediately when it arrived on Thursday, March 14. Aroma: (I am sensitive to smells, so I felt a twang in my nose. Mouthfeel: Harmony of mild sweetness and sourness. Aftertaste: The lingering aftertaste is like the fading of a large, fine-grained firework. Food wine: with vegetable hot pot. Special note: The vegetables and tofu taste sweeter than ever, and I was able to savor them carefully. Souce: I was able to savor the sake with a lot of time, free from the concept of time. I would like to try Otters' other lineups at my own pace. == Otters, unfiltered Junmai Daiginjo-Nama, 30% and 90% Polishing, Funabagumi == Price: 2,990 yen Price: 2,970 yen (tax included) Capacity: 720ml Alcohol content: 16 Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic) Rice polishing ratio: 39 Producer: Asahi Shuzo Co.

I looked for non-alcoholic "Ufufu no moto" at a Terada Honke store, but unfortunately they said they did not carry it. I thought I would just buy Terada Honke's iron plate "Musuhi" and go home, but then I found Terada Honke's non-alcoholic (amazake), so I immediately got it. When I drank a fermented amazake from another company, my mind was filled with the sorrow of not being able to drink it because it was too sour...but I was surprised to find that the amazake from Terada Honke was the same. The mild sweetness derived from rice is honestly delicious! The slight sourness that accompanies the sweetness is a perfect balance. I'm sure I'll be back to try it again to support my intestinal activities. I would like to try Daigo no Shizuku.

Ganki is a sake brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture. I tried to find it on the Internet, but it was always sold out. I had given up on it, but then a beautiful light blue bottle appeared in a certain store, just like an oasis appearing out of the desert. A beautiful light blue bottle appeared in a certain store. I got it immediately. Opening time: about 15 minutes (Terada Honke's "Musuhi" took 30 minutes, so it was easier this time) Aroma: Round, soft and sweet. Mouthfeel: Medium-fine bubbles with a gentle sweetness in harmony. After that change: the last taste tightens up with a little bitterness. Impression: It was a perfect match for creamy sake-kasu and white miso nabe. We are grateful to have encountered a refined sake that does not bring its presence to the forefront, but rather accompanies the dish and brings out the deliciousness of the ingredients (sweetness of vegetables). Ganki is not easy to obtain, but I would like to build a relationship of trust with the owner and challenge other lines of Ganki. ====GANKI Sparkling Junmai Happo-Nigori Raw Raw Sake ==== Price: 2,140 yen (tax included) Contents: 720ml Ingredients : rice flour(domestic), rice malt(domestic) Rice Polishing Ratio:60 Alcohol content:14 Production Date:24.02 Producer:Hachiyoshin Shuzo Co.

I was personally interested in this sake from the brewery "Omine Shuzo". Miraculously, I came across it. Moreover, it is a wallet-friendly one-cup. The design is a spring-like motif of cherry blossoms and leaves. I didn't hesitate to get it! We had it with dinner (Izakaya MENU: grilled fish and petit yudofu). I had a glass of Daimine One-Cup (cold). Aroma: No alcohol stimulation like traditional sake (I'm glad). Sensation in the mouth: Rounded sensation with no corners (This is good!) Afterward change: No nausea. It accompanies the pace of drinking at home. ■Points: Sake is made from the water source of Beppu Benten Pond in Mine City, Yamaguchi Prefecture (one of the 100 best water sources in Japan). ■Impressions: Natural sake made from a beautiful water source feels natural to the body. I am very happy to have found a great sake brewery's sake. I would like to try other lines from the same brewery. ===Oumine one-cup 100ml ====Price: 350 yen without tax Price: 350 yen without tax Manufactured by: Omine Shuzo Co.

I tried "Sanuki Kuraudei" for the first time today for lunch (miso nabe with sake lees). I was so happy with the perfect match that I tried another pairing experiment. I tried another pairing experiment. (Homemade sweets) A simple sweet with strawberries and pure whipped cream (35%) on top. This is also a creamy sweet. I thought the creamy "Sanuki Kuraudei" would go well with it... (I didn't have the energy to bake a rice flour crepe to wrap the aforementioned.) I gave it a try. The sweetness of the sweets and the sweetness with a hint of sourness of "Sanuki Kuraudii" matched perfectly! A perfect match! The depth of sake is amazing... The experiment was very worthwhile and rewarding.

A new challenge for nigori sake. Easy to drink. I am sure to repeat it! Aroma: No alcohol taste that tingles in the nose, which is common in sake (I'm glad). Texture: Not even a juice, very easy to drink with a mild sweetness. Change: I'm not a big sake drinker, but this one is easy to drink. Impression: I paired it with a creamy sake-kasu miso nabe and it was the best match! I'm sure I'll be back for more.
