Shoutoku era (1711.4.25-1716.6.22) Purchased at Kyoto station as it was said to be limited edition. I had it on the Shinkansen. I enjoyed it. It is from one of the Zen words, "Fufu-masu Toku-sho" (to invite virtue with good fortune). The brewery was founded in Shoho 2 (1645) in Rakuchu, and later moved to Fushimi.

Katano cherry Eurya japonica (species of evergreen related to sakaki) I had this for lunch at Sushi Juraku in Kitashinchi when I visited Osaka. It was a Yamahai with a heavy and robust flavor. The name of the restaurant is derived from Katano, the old name of the area where the Amano River, the origin of the Japanese Tanabata legend, is located nearby and was a famous cherry blossom viewing spot in the Heian period.

Kid Haywa. I didn't put it up. Modern construction. Fruity and delicious. Since I visited Osaka Expo, I went to Heiwa Doburoku Namba Brewery in the basement of Osaka Takashimaya with a wish for peace. Freshly made doburoku and kiddies from the server are available. A coined word combining "Kii-no-kuni," the old name of Wakayama, and "land (do). Agara is a Wakayama dialect word for us. During the chaotic postwar period, sake brewing had to be suspended, but Yasumasa Yamamoto, the second generation brewer, made a petition speech to the Diet and received permission to resume the brewery. The desire at this time to "brew sake in peaceful times" was the origin of the brewery's name, "Heiwa Shuzo" ("Peace Brewery").

Kinoene Yakou Iinuma There was a tasting at Kawachiya in Hongo and it was delicious, so I purchased Yakou and Hekihoshi. I quite like the label, although it doesn't match the taste. If I had to say something, I would say that the green color is melon-like. The Yagyo is a fire-brewed version of the Byakuya, with a sake level of -8, low acidity, fruity, a little matured, with a firm sweetness and little bitterness. It has a slight gaseous taste. It seems to go well with strong flavored dishes. It has a candy-like pure dew or mead feeling. Good for sake beginners.

The sweetness and acidity are strong and the taste is red apple. It was delicious. Brand renewal in 23 years. There was a replacement in November 2012, making it the 16th generation. The 12th head of the family was born in the year of Koshi, and the sake was named after him.

kachikoma Kiyoto Kachikoma Kiyoto is a very small brewery, producing only a few hundred koku per year. The brewery is a "handmade" brewery where the brewer himself is involved in all processes. The text on the label is by Mitsuo Ikeda, an artist who is a fan of Katsuma. The origin of the name "Katsikoma" comes from Keisuke Seito, the first brewery owner, who returned from the Russo-Japanese War in 1906 (the year after the war ended) and opened a sake brewery in his hometown, Takaoka City, and named it "Katsikoma" to commemorate his victory in the war. The intent of the piece is not known.

one's wife (sometimes esp. a nagging wife) This is the first time I have had Yamasan, which I was curious about. The label is simple and cool with a sense of Kumiko. When the Kanai family, the founders of the company, started their business, it was rooted in the community as "Yamasan Shoten" dealing in rice, miso, sake, etc. The name of the brewery was also changed to "Yamasan Sake Brewery" as it is. The brewery stopped brewing its own sake around 2015, but it is now closed due to aging facilities and aging brewers.  However, sake brewing resumed in February 2023. Started out on a small scale (about 60 koku).  There appears to have been considerable investment in equipment, with a refrigeration facility, temperature-controlled tanks, and a re-equipped koji room listed.

Kankiku Occasional Monochrome A super-limited Occasional series focusing on unfiltered, unfiltered sake brewed only once a year. Mr. Yanagishita, the toji, originally worked as an aircraft mechanic for JAL at Narita Airport, but his attachment to his hometown of Chiba and his desire to do work 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.

Tenmei era (1781.4.2-1789.1.25) Akebono (lake monster said to be one of the most wicked and powerful fish in Japan) The label is more fancy than last year. It looks 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 sixth generation, Koichi Suzuki (male brewer) has led the brewery, which includes many female staff members, to create a vibrant brewery.

Hudou rape seedlings The Edo shogunate granted the right to manufacture ironware called "nabeza" to the prominent families in various regions. The predecessor of this brewery was the one that was entrusted with nabeza in the Shimousa area. In the Genroku period (1688-1704), the Sakura Clan, which ruled this area, gave the brewery shares and began brewing sake in front of the Narita Mountain gate, known as "Narita no Ofudo-sama. At that time, long-established breweries were called "Onana," and it is said that the name "Nabe-ten" came from the combination of "Nabe-za" and "Onana," thus giving the brewery the name "Nabe-ten.

Eikohuji Crimson Glory It was so good at Uoso that I had to have another one at Posha. I don't really like the fact that they use Dom Perignon Rosé on the label. It was a little more mild than the last one I had, with a sake level of -64, an acidity of 2.5, red yeast, and a strawberry-like sweetness. It tasted totally good on the rocks or with lemon and soda. Delicious. The name of the sake comes from the character for "glory" that was added to the original sake name "Fuji" at the time of its establishment to express the wish for prosperity. It is also said that the symmetrical character "Eiko Fuji" represents the brewery's philosophy of "sake brewing with no two sides of the same coin.

Eikohuji Hinowa Edible rice "Tsuyahime" is used. I quite like the label, which seems to be well-liked by men. Compared to the image of Eikofuji, it is more of a food sake, and its fruity and aroma is a bit more subdued and less assertive, while the flavor is stronger. The name "Eiko-Fuji" comes from the fact that the character for "Eiko-Fuji" was added to the original name "Fuji" in the early days of the company with a wish for prosperity. It is also said that the symmetrical character "Eiko Fuji" represents the brewery's philosophy of "sake brewing with no two sides of the same coin.
