Murasaki-period mutual aid association (i.e. for mutual aid and assistance in the treatment of disabled persons) I had it with a mouthful. It smells like drench cherries and has a strong sweet taste. The brand name is derived from the surname of the brewer, "Murayama," and "Yu" means "to help and bring happiness. The brand also incorporates the German wine concept of ranking wines based on sweetness (the sweeter the wine, the higher the rank).

Asteraceae flowering plant (Parasenecio delphiniifolius) A hidden sake that I was allowed to drink at the restaurant for various reasons. I think it may have been because it had been a while, but at first it smelled like persimmon juice, and when I drank it, I found sour apples. The aftertaste is natto, and overall, it is a creature-like sake with a strong natural wine-like habit. I'm glad I only had half a bottle...by the way, my neighbor who drank it with me had a really great palate. Not recommended for beginners. I got the impression that it was like Kumezakura Chalcis ethnic sake. The name "Miyoshikiku" means "its fragrance is fragrant, its color is light, and its taste is beautiful", which is a reference to Miyoshi City where it is located. The fifth-generation brewer and toji, Ryoichiro Umamiya, has been attracting attention for his unconventional sake brewing and pop labels in the spirit of "Walking on the Wild Side"! He is also active in passing on the tradition to the next generation, with a direct farmer connection to the brewery and the daughters of his three sisters involved in the sake making process!

river in which worshippers wash their hands (and rinse their mouth) prior to entering a shrine I couldn't taste much. Maybe it was because it was a little long. Maybe slightly dry, slightly fruity. Maybe I was also drinking Miyoshikiku at the time so I almost didn't taste it. I thought I would try to buy u next time. The name comes from the Tetori River, a raging river that symbolizes Ishikawa Prefecture, which flows right by the brewery.

Iyokagiya Seiryo Seiryo from Seiryo It is a little dry and refreshing food sake with a cutout of fireworks, which is also summery. Seiryo was founded in 2002 by Seiryo Shuzo, a sake brewery that was named after its founder, who was a "key shop keeper" of a rice brewery before its establishment in the Meiji era.

Kankiku Ocean Ninety-Nine, Oumi I received it with an open mouth. The first bite is a blue melon. Gorgeous sweetness. Very tasty. Mr. Yanagishita, the master brewer, originally worked as an aircraft mechanic for JAL at Narita Airport, but his attachment to his hometown of Chiba and his desire to do a job that only he could do led him to the sake brewing industry. After joining Kangiku Meikozo in the beer brewing department, he was selected to be the toji (master brewer), despite his lack of experience, when the previous master brewer retired. He initially trained under his predecessor and is now in charge of sake brewing as a toji. The name "Kangiku" is said to have come from the appearance of Kangiku (chrysanthemums that bloom in winter), which bloom strongly and beautifully even in the coldest season.

Izu Joou (Japanese dog breed) The label is cute. Maybe it's because I'm drinking it while looking at the label, but the taste is delicious, with a refreshing, easy-going freshness. The aroma is mild. This brand was introduced in 1977 and named after Masayuki Hoshina, the first lord of the Aizu domain, whose official rank was "lieutenant general. In 2021, Yuri Hayashi, the seventh generation head of the brewery and the toji (female toji), will officially take over the brewery, and is currently promoting sake brewing from a woman's perspective while strengthening hygiene.

Eikohji, Sumiretsuyu, Ibuki In France, there were usually candied violets and sweets, but unfortunately I am not familiar with them and I don't recognize violets. They are sweet, juicy and pear-like. The name "Fuji" comes from the character for "glory," which was added to the original sake name "Fuji" when the company was first founded to express the wish for prosperity. It is also said that the symmetrical character "Eiko Fuji" represents the brewery's philosophy of "sake brewing without backs and sides.

Smilax china (species of sarsaparilla) Refreshingly light and dry food sake with sourness and bitterness The name "Zaruso" comes from the local name of the brewery, "Koaza Zaruso" (小字残草). The name "Zanzou" comes from "Koaza Zanzou," the local name for the small area where the brewery is located, and the prestigious "Yomogi" was added to it. I was reading an article a little while ago. The price of processed rice will be raised this fall and the price of rice may double. Agriculture is not going to do well even if a company like Uniqlo does it, and even now it is very hard when the sake drinking population continues to decline. I was wondering if the sake industry is becoming more and more like a domaine, or if they will decide to call even imported rice sake. Speaking of Kanagawa, Izumihashi is now a domaine, isn't it?

Japanese white pine (Pinus parviflora) Firmly sweet with almost no sourness or bitterness. Melon Named after a brewery that learned from "Kamotsuru" in Hiroshima, the name "Shinanotsuru" was borrowed from one of the characters for "crane". Since 2001, the brewery has converted to a pure rice brewery for all of its products. Currently all Ginjo-style brewing (low-temperature, long-term brewing). The name derives from the nickname and haiku name of the first president, Kujiro Kitahara. He used the character "satsuki" (皐, satsuki, satsuki), which is the same character as the character "sawa" in Tazawa Shuzo, the predecessor of Choseisha, as his haiga name.

Aizumusume Omachi During a walk, my wife said, "I'm thinking it's time to get serious about Aizu Musume," so somewhat bewildered, I went out to buy one. Named to symbolize the locality of Aizu and the brewer's desire to express it in a friendly way. It has a slightly melon-like, fresh, grassy aroma and bitterness, and as you drink it, it seems to get sweeter.

The name was derived from an accidental approval when Tatsugoro Takagi XIV applied to register it as a trademark, and it was later made more widely known by Akitsuna Takagi XV. Tatsugoro Tatsugoro XV assumed the name Tatsugoro in 2023.

Urakasumi Zen This time I thought a little about what I would do when I bring someone a drink 100% to their liking, regardless of the season or relationship. My father-in-law came to Tokyo to watch a baseball game with an old friend and gave it to me as a gift. The sake I received tasted the best. My father-in-law loves Urakasumi Zen, so it is a memorable sake for me as well. By the way, my father-in-law is very active and plays golf. The name "Urakasumi" comes from a waka poem written in the Kamakura period (1185-1333) about the haze of Shiogama's Ura (the elegant view of the haze in spring), and the brewery is located in Shiogama, a scenic spot. The taste is mild. The aftertaste is clean and dry, a little like a white wine.

chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) Although I thought the name was quite assertive, when I tried it, I found it easy to drink and tasty, with a strong sweetness from the strong umami of the rice, even though the sake is +1 and has an alcohol content of 16%. The name of the sake is the same as that of the brewery's president and chief brewer, Mr. Tomonori Yoshida. It is a limited edition sake made by the president himself, bottled from the middle portion of the best brewing tank in the brewery that year.

The young toji, Yuichi Tanaka (born in 1992), is a self-taught sake brewer who started a new challenge while learning to make sake, and his Kafudazake sake became a big hit in 2015. Kamo City is called "Little Kyoto in Hokuetsu," from which the name "Nishiki" for sake is said to have come.

Tenmei era (1781.4.2-1789.1.25) The label is more fancy than last year. It's very summery. The brewery name "Akebono" is derived from a passage in "The Pillow Book", "Haru wa Akebono", and "Tenmei" was chosen as a synonym for the brand name! Akebono has a history of three generations of female brewers, which is rare for a sake brewery. Since 2011, the 6th generation, Koichi Suzuki (male brewer) has led the brewery, which includes many female staff members, and has been making sake with a lively spirit.

Congratulations on winning the highest trophy in the 2025 IWC (International Wine Challenge) SAKE category Junmai-shu and becoming the champion sake. The current president, Takeshi Sakurai, graduated from the University of Agriculture, and after training at Dewazakura, he returned to the brewery. The year he returned to the brewery, Mt. Asama erupted, and he chose the symbolic mountain as the name of the brand.

striped cotton fabric imported from Sri Lanka I thought the label was easy to understand with a handsome gorilla and a map of Aichi. The name comes from a haiku by Hon'i Nobunaga, "Shikishima no Yamato shin wo hito inquired Hito ha Asahi ni kagafu yamazakura hana" (Yamazakura blossoms that smell in the morning sun). Shikishima is another name for Japan, which is a pillow word for Yamato, meaning an island country with a large and rich land In case you are wondering, the translation is My heart, as a Japanese, is such a heart that knows the beauty of mountain cherry blossoms shining in the morning sun and is moved by their beauty.
