Here is another favorite sake, KID -KID Special Junmai Sake Omachi. We bought a bottle.
Fruity aroma, refreshing sweetness, and good acidity. A hint of lychee.
It was delicious.
Green label of Shiboritate Orikagarami Nama sake from "Takachiyo", one of my favorite sake brands.
It was a rare purchase of a bottle.
Fruity aroma, melon-like sweetness, and a hint of gas. It took us 5 days to finish it as a couple.
The second day after opening the bottle was the most vigorous, and when we uncorked it, it made a louder noise than on the first day, which surprised us.
We could not deny some deterioration on the fourth and fifth days, but it tasted good enough.
Hatsuyuki Light Nigori 2 years aged from Yamazan, my favorite.
This is my first brand.
It was a sake that I found irresistibly delicious, with a firm pear-like sweetness that greatly exceeded the sweetness associated with the gentle ginjo aroma, a slight gassy feeling, and a slight bitterness that left a gentle aftertaste before disappearing.
Although the variety may vary, I would be happy to drink this light nigori sake every evening.
Purchased at Sake-no-Osaka-ya.
Thanks to my wife who always makes a nice selection.
This is the first sake I have ever had.
The name "Shimofuri Romain" is intuitively easy to understand because of its light cloudy color.
It has a gentle, yet firm and elegant sweetness that is appropriate for a soft and gentle ginjo aroma, like that of white peaches.
Purchased at Sake-no-Osaka-ya, selected by my wife.
I would like to drink this sake again if I have a chance.
(I forgot to take a picture of pouring it into a glass 😅)
Dear nabe
Good evening, and thank you for your comment.
I see you are from Minamiaizu.
Not only in Minamiaizu, but also in Fukushima Prefecture, there are many good sake breweries 😋.
Hello Jay & Nobby 😆.
That's great Nagano sake shop trip 😆.
I see you went to Sake-no-Osaka-ya too!
You are right, I never get tired of looking at this refrigerator 😋.
This is the first sake I buy.
The purchase was made at Sake-no-Osaka-ya.
October 01 is both glasses day and sake day, and I had no idea that there was such a collaboration project, but the local sake brewery was out of stock early and I could not buy it, so I had to go to the neighboring Nagano Prefecture.
This was the first time I had tasted Yukawa Shuzo's sake "Sokame," and I liked it very much.
I was told that it was sweet like a white peach, but it was also like a pear.
Junmai Ginjo Hitogochochi 50% light nigori from Yamazan after a long time.
The pear-like sweetness, slight acidity, and moderate gassiness made it one of our favorites.
We were surprised that it did not deteriorate on the second day, but rather seemed to be getting healthier and made a strong sound when we uncorked it.
The price was reasonable at 1,540 yen.
On my way back from visiting the graves of the deceased in Niigata Prefecture, I headed to Nagano Prefecture and visited Sake-no-Osaka-ya for the first time with my wife as my attendant.
I was excited and calmly browsed the selection.
Hiyoroshi from Kido after a long time.
It has a light, refreshing taste and a slightly elegant sweetness.
It was a delicious sake with good cost performance.
Price: ¥1,375-.
Kame no Umi is another sake I like. This time it was a Yuyake Koyake Junmai Ginjo.
It was a delicious sake with a good balance of sweetness and acidity.
This sake is produced by Sei Shuzo and is sold under the "Akagi no Megumi Brand" by the Fujimi Commerce and Industry Association (Fujimi Village Local Products Sales Association), which is responsible for planning, development, and inquiries.
It is available at a nearby roadside station, so I often buy it.
It has the same taste as Seiya and Kantou no Hanana, with a sweetness that we like. It is a refreshing sake with a slight gassy taste.
I have had this sake before, the first time I tasted and bought it at a commercial facility called "Uono-no-Sato" in Niigata Prefecture.
This time, I bought it at Root Shop Kawaraya (distributor).
The concept of this sake seems to be "light and dry," but it has a sweet taste and is easy to drink.
Although it contains brewer's alcohol, the alcohol content is moderate at 15 degrees, making it easy to drink.
The second day after opening the bottle, you can feel it deteriorate.
Machida Shuzo 55 Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku from Machida Sake Brewery, which I haven't had in a while.
This is also delicious 😋.
It is both like rum and pear, with a slight gassy taste that is refreshing and easy to drink.
This is the first sake I've ever had in my hands.
Maruishi Brewery's Maruishi Namaishihashi Junmai Ginjo Hi.
It was a sake with a sour taste similar to the malic acid yeast sake that I have been drinking in succession recently.
The alcohol content was a pleasantly low 14%, making it an easy-drinking sake.
At Aiba Sake Shop, 1,980 yen-.
It has been a long time since I have had Yamazan.
It was a crisp and delicious sake with a refreshing sweetness, good acidity, and a sparkling taste.
My wife selected this sake and bought it for me. Sake-no-Seibu Sake Shop, 1,980 yen-.
Coincidentally, it is followed by a sake with malic acid yeast.
It has the same alcohol content of 13 degrees.
The balance of sweetness and sourness was more to our liking.
My wife bought these sakes at the same store on the same day.
Sake-no-sei Sake Shop, 1,965 yen-.
From Saku-no-Hana, one of my favorites, this sake is made with high-productivity malic acid yeast (Nagano yeast P43-14).
On the first day, it was sweet, sour, and fruity, with a slightly low alcohol content that made it easy to drink and enjoy. On the second day, the sourness decreased and the sweetness became deeper.
First sake.
Kurosho Senjozo, extra edition Kurosho Senjozo test brew sake.
My wife bought this sake when she visited Nagano Prefecture.
When I chilled it well and started drinking it, the sweetness pushed it out.
Without prior knowledge, I thought it was like a Junmai Daiginjo, but it was a Junmai Daiginjo.
As it warmed up to room temperature, it added a nice bitterness and sourness that made it indescribably delicious.
Thanks to my wife's selection.
The impression is completely different from the previous Yamadanishiki activated sake, with the acidity coming first and a refreshing, refreshing taste with just the right amount of sweetness. It is a good match for summer.
It looks similar but tastes completely different.
Takachiyo GOLD custom made pineapple.
As the name suggests, it is a delicious sake with a sweetness that reminds one of pineapple and a good acidity.
Purchased at Aiba Sake Shop ¥1,980-.
