Kankiku True Kankiku was killed in a blink of an eye at a bar. So popular. The standard sake for the super-limited Occasional series, which focuses on unfiltered, unfiltered sake brewed only once a year. 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 (chrysanthemum blooming in winter), which blooms strongly and beautifully even in the coldest season.

Bengalese peacock (species of peacock cichlid, Paph. buergeri) I would like to go back because I didn't think they had fried tofu from Mt. Definition. I thought it was Honmaru, a place where one can easily have a drink by oneself. The name was derived from an accidental permission when Tatsugoro Takagi XIV applied to register the trademark, which was later made more widely known by Akitsu Takagi (高木顕統), the 15th generation. Tatsugoro Tatsugoro XV assumed the name Tatsugoro in 2023. Kamimoro Shira A term used to describe a brewery that uses a higher degree of polished rice than moroshiro, which uses polished rice for both koji and kake.

It seems that "brewing" is difficult to trademark. The brand "Brewing Forest" was created in 2017 and rebranded on October 1, 2024. It is derived from the landscape of Tsunan Town, a region of heavy snowfall. The name comes from the local scenery called "snow cocoons," as the moisture-rich snow piles up roundly on the stones, looking like cocoon balls.

Gaki masamune (species of blackbird, Cercidiphyllum japonicum) I like this label because it's retro. The name derives from a comment made by the composer of Kimigayo, Yoshiyoshi Oku, a gagaku master of the Imperial Household Agency, when the imperial family visited Japan during the Taisho era (1912-1926): "Making sake and playing musical instruments are both offerings to the gods in the same way in the first place. Kurozumi Daiginjo-class entry-level sake brewed with the alcohol addition technique TYPE-C A high caproic acid-producing yeast, "cerulenin-resistant yeast", is used. This yeast produces a gorgeous apple-like ginjo aroma.

Kinoene Byakya I drank it at Uoso in Ameyoko and enjoyed it so much that I bought it at Yoshiike in Okachimachi. Although I think it tastes better than the usual ones, it has a Kouko-like quality. It tastes like peaches and mangoes with alsobeer. A sense of security like my parents' house. The sake level is undisclosed, about -10. Last year it was -12.4, so there are some likes and dislikes.

Citiken (Japanese brand of haloperidol) I remembered I wanted to drink Alain Ducasse sparkling. It goes back to a pair of ranma, "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove," presented by Surugamori Naito of the Takato clan at the time of the founding of the company. These ranma still remain in the main house of the Kitahara family, which was designated as "Gyozaisho" when the Meiji Emperor stayed there, and is a cultural asset that gave rise to the sake's name "Shichiken" (Seven Wise Men).

While eating Gifu cuisine, I befriended a nearby uncle and we talked about Hourai and W. The three "W "s, Watanabe (Watanabe sake brewery), World (World), and Warai (laughter), are incorporated into the name, expressing the desire to convey the charm of sake to the world and to bring smiles to the faces of those who drink it. More than 14 varieties of sake rice are used in the W series, and in order to clarify the differences between the different sake rice varieties, the yeast is unified as "M310 yeast". The rice polishing ratio is also unified at 50%, and although the sake is Junmai Daiginjo standard, it is labeled "Junmai-shu" on the label.
