I like cold sake and modern sake, but now that it is getting colder, I wanted to try heated sake, so I chose Hirotogawa's special junmai! I paired it with shishamo at room temperature. The delicious taste of the rice stimulated my taste buds. It resets the saltiness of the shishamo. Next, at about lukewarm temperature, oden🍢 flavor and bitterness spread, and this was also an exquisite partner for oden.

First Niigata sake in a long time (only the second since I recorded it)! I brought home a bottle of "Takachiyo" that I've been wanting to drink for a long time... and it's my favorite orikara-mi! The first sip of the bottle melted me with its sweet and juicy flavor... The ripe grapefruit flavor and, if I may say so, the slight bitterness in the aftertaste... On the second day, I poured only the supernatant and paired it with sashimi. This one was crisp and sharp, and I enjoyed the change in taste!

At Kichijoji Platstand Moto-san I chose FUZZY GREEN Honjozo (60ml, 500 yen), which I had not yet purchased, because it had the same flavor of fresh muscat. No wonder it is modern and favored by young people and beginners. I have been reluctant to try Honjozo, so I could never get my hands on the Masamune Green, but here I am... I'll bring some home next time!

NEWBORN Akabu Junmai I drank the Junmai Junmai before, which is a year-round product, and it was so delicious that I raised my expectations for this new sake.... The first sip of this new sake exceeded my expectations with its fresh, pear-like fruity flavor! Some reviewers said it was as smooth as water, but it was more like a lingering sweetness and umami flavor that lingered even after it passed the throat. Next, a new junmai ginjo will be released, and I'd like to compare them, but I'm afraid I'll open it in a few days 😂.

Clean, crisp, dry taste Slight gas feeling after opening the bottle is pleasant. As you drink it, you can gradually feel the full flavor of the rice. It is easy to match with meals, and the stewed rice balls and firefly squid with ginger and soy sauce are the best for the first evening drink in November!

As the weather cooled down, I wanted to try heating sake, so I had a cup of sake. I chose "Toyo no Aki" Tokubetsu Junmai. It is recommended to be served lukewarm, so we had it with firefly squid and maki rolls. It's a legitimate dry sake and matched well with the food. I've never been a fan of sake in a cup for a long time, but it's nice to have a cup that suits the occasion.

After drinking the Hanamup series, we finally arrived at Junmai Daiginjyo Yamadanishiki! Smooth sweetness and rice flavor typical of Hanamup Finished with a crisp aftertaste! It was a masterpiece of perfection! Is this the last of this year's Hanamup series? I hear that the price of sake will be raised next year due to the rice price, and I wonder if Hanamup will also become more difficult to afford...

Sake Exploration in Noge, a Mecca for Drinkers We had a junmai ginjo unfiltered raw sake made from Aikoku No. 3 in figure. The deep flavor of the rice soaked through. It was a cup with a strong body and a great drinking experience.

It's my first Mitsui-Eikiku! Excited because it is a popular modern sake brewery with a label design that invites purchase! I purchased a special junmai sukai. Soft acidity and clean sweetness It goes down the throat quickly and comfortably. I couldn't help but squeal with delight! The harmony of acidity and sweetness is exquisite, so you will never get tired of drinking it, and it can be easily matched with all kinds of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes. Since it is a bottle, I would like to enjoy it with a glass of Koei Kikuban for a while.

It has been a long time since it was made. It is made with Hyogo Prefecture's top grade Yamadanishiki. It has an elegant sweetness, umami flavor, and a refreshing crispness. You can feel the passion of Isshirousuisei for sake brewing. It is perfect for a mealtime drink and goes down a treat!

Luckily, the second bottle of Jishin is on its way home! I will have it with sushi on a good day. The elegant mouthfeel makes you feel like you are drinking a top quality sake. The deep flavor of rice disappears as it seeps into your throat, and if you eat sushi with it, there is no need for words. I wish you another good day 🙏.

The sweet flavor that is typical of Kangiku fills the mouth. It has a long aftertaste, but it is well settled with a sharp finish. It's really good as I thought. That's all I can say.

First time in Oita Prefecture Receiving Chiebijin's Nama-ripened Hachitan-Nishiki It is made by letting it mature for half a year in its raw state. In the mouth, sweetness, umami, bitterness, and acidity swell. As the label says, it goes well with cheese and dishes with strong flavors. It is also good to pour it into a wine glass and drink it at a calm time before going to bed.

First Jikin Purchased a while ago, but corked for a special occasion The mouthfeel is crisp and hard-edged. The lingering aftertaste is firm and umami. I would like to encounter various Jikin while being thankful for the environment where I can drink Jikin.

Ocean Series in Kangiku The fourth one this year? I guess. The first impact right after opening the bottle is the chili gas sensation, followed by the sweetness and umami that you can say is the true Kangiku, which spreads in your mouth and leaves you with a lingering feeling of "Kangiku never disappoints! If you want to taste a modern royal road, Kangiku is the one!

Sentori since the early days of my sake swamp addiction. This is the first time I have tasted SENKOKU even after the new alcohol. I had been afraid to drink it because of its acidic taste, but it has been a long time since I have had it. I still felt sourness when I drank it by itself, but I thought it would be a perfect match for sushi and sashimi. No doubt! It is a synergistic effect that further enhances the flavor of the sushi. The acidity, which I don't like, doesn't interfere with it at all. It was a great evening drink!

Hi Yoshi 😃 It's been a while since we've had Senkou 🤗. We felt the acidity was lessened by the return to Edo 😅 but it was perfect for sushi and sashimi 😋.

I was missing melon sake, so I chose Naraman's for a long time. I heard that this Naraman is only available at a limited number of distributors. Of course, Koyama Shoten had it! Now, let's open the bottle! The flavor is juicy melon, as expected, The body and flavor of the 17% alcohol content are solid. Naraman is delicious after all! It is a versatile sake that can be easily paired with any meal!

Long time no see Houou Mita & Tochigi Prefecture I found Mikumari when I wandered into the sanctuary today! I bought it without hesitation. Now, open the bottle. When I poured it into the glass, it was full of bubbles like carbonated water. The sweet aroma stimulates the nose. When you put it in your mouth, the sweet and delicious flavor spreads in your mouth with a slight carbonation accent... this is delicious... The fusion of freshness and flavor is exquisite. The only drawback is that it is so delicious that a four-pack of it runs out in no time! Well, here I come!

It has become my favorite brand so much so that I have become a Kudokidokiwari fan. This time, it is the Ogawa yeast of the Jr. series, which follows the previous Maha-Mystery-chan. While the juicy sweetness of Maka Mystery-chan stood out, this Ogawa yeast has a crispness with a sweetness that comes at first, but soon turns into a dry aftertaste. The Ogawa yeast is sweet at first, but soon turns into a dry aftertaste with a crispness. This is an excellent sake to pair with sushi and sashimi.
