Bought this sake on a trip to Fukui. There was a lineup of junmai, junmai ginjo, and junmai daiginjo, and this was recommended to me. I liked the aroma and the unexpected acidity when cold, and thought it might be too acidic when heated, but it turned out to be the best when cooled. A good sake that makes you want to eat snacks. The staff at the store was very friendly and helpful. 770 including tax (300ml)

It is called "top grade", but what makes it "top grade"? By the way, Famima PB has neither "Kaisen" nor "Tokusen". The smell of sake was a little weaker than that of Seven's Onikoroshi. Seven's sake is better when heated. Due to the time of year, it was often used as a cooking sake. 493 including tax (900ml)

The first thing I noticed was the strong acidity from the citrusy aroma on the nose. I have never experienced this before. When heated, the acidity is stronger than the aroma, and I prefer it cold or lower. I asked if it was okay if I was traveling by car. I asked if it was okay while I was traveling in the car and was told it was fine because it was heated. I am glad I bought it because it has character. 850 including tax (300ml)

7-Eleven PB My first impression was that it smelled like alcohol. I left it in a very hot kitchen and it was fine. I would rather drink it heated than cold. I often used it as a cooking sake, but in the end I drank it with carbonated water and lemon. 495 including tax (900ml)

I found this building while walking along the udatsu-lined streets of Mino. This building is a national important cultural property. The site was long and narrow like Kyoto.　　　　It has a nice aroma and a subtle sweetness that is best when it is not too cold. Junmai Ginjo and Junmai Daiginjo are often seen, but I think we don't see Ginjo and Daiginjo so often anymore. 570 (300ml) including tax

If there is a one🐶 cup, then there is also a nyan🐈 cup, named sake. There are three main types of sake and a plum wine. The sake is made from different rice. The sake is junmai ginjo, dry with a nice aroma. The sake is the same as the junmai ginjo in a four-pack, so you can compare the sake and labels if you buy four different cups. The price is not that much different. 473 (180ml) including tax

I like it and it is delicious, with an added sweetness to the snow crescents of the good times. I like it. However, since I drank it while working at this time of the year, I drank it quickly, and even though it is 13%, it is much higher than STO ZERO, so the drunkenness comes later. I think winter is the best time to savor sake. 　I drank it over a period of about three weeks, and it was delicious all the way through. 3795 including tax (1.8L)

Sake with all-in sugar, acidifiers, etc. Recommended for cold brewing. If it is too warm, the acidity will increase, so lukewarm heating is recommended to bring out the flavor and aroma. Since it is this time of year, I often drink it with soda water. 965 including tax (2L)

Good aroma. Sourness and sweetness, a little like a light Koei Kiku. There is also a light color. It has a special junmai label, which is rare for Koei-Kiku. It seems to be a year-round sake, and they also sell a hi-ire version. 　It took me about three weeks to finish it. I never drink sake two days a week, I travel a lot, and I only drink about one cup a day to begin with. I kept it in the fridge so the taste didn't go to the weird side and it tasted good all the way through. You won't regret buying this Kouei Kiku in a bottle. 3278 including tax (1.8L)

Seven-Eleven's PB Junmai Sake. The price and rice polishing ratio are the same as Famima's PB. This one is from Takara Shuzo and that one is from Gekkeikan. Kyoto Fushimi is the same. It has no peculiarities, good or bad. Fill a glass with ice, add half sake and half soda water, and drizzle a little lemon syrup. You can drink it like beer or a highball. It is also cheap. It can be served cold or hot, and can be used sparingly as a cooking sake. The major packaged sakes are sold at around 1,000 yen, but the suggested retail price is actually higher, which is a discount or a double price, though I would say it's better to go with the cheaper price. However, the PB sake is sold at the regular price of 1,000 yen for junmai sake, so the PB sake is cheap. 1097 including tax (1.8L)

If it were not for the black cover, the cork would have been blown off. The sweetness is a bit restrained, but the acidity and umami are delicious, just like Kouei Kiku. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a sweet soufflé cake. The alcohol content is 13%. There was no noticeable change after the bottle was opened, and I finished the bottle in a few days. 　I tend to buy Kouei Kiku in 1 shou bottles, partly because I finish a shogo bottle in no time and partly because the price of a shogo bottle is higher than that of an ippon bottle compared to other sake breweries. 3465 including tax (1.8L)

It has no peculiarities, good or bad, so besides room temperature cold sake and warmed sake, it is actually best as a sour with an equal amount of soda water and a little fruit juice. It can also be used as a cooking sake. It can be left at room temperature, so there is no problem to have a bottle in the kitchen. It is also inexpensive at around 1,000 yen. However, convenience stores and one-packs may not go well together, and some stores do not carry it even though it is a PB product. 1097 including tax (1.8L)

A family member bought it, saying it was a half price sticker at the supermarket. The same thing happened before. I warmed it up and compared it with Tomikyumusume. The one with sugar and acidifier had more flavor. I usually drink only one or two gou of sake, but I drank three gou in no time. 　I think this sake is well made. 405 including tax (900ml)

It is manufactured at the Nirasaki Plant in Yamanashi Prefecture. I didn't know this brand still existed. 　It used to be a big brand in Nada with TV commercials, but after some scandals, the Tomikumusume brand was transferred to Fukutokucho Shuzo, the president of Tomikumusume Shuzo was fired, the company name was changed, and they now make canned chu-hai. 　It was on sale at a drugstore for 800 yen. Surprisingly, the cold sake was the easiest to drink. The bitter taste of heated sake did not suit me. To be honest, I couldn't taste any umami or sweetness in this sake, which is a typical cheap sake. 　I am tired of drinking junmai sake and sake with alcohol, which have little aroma or flavor, and call it a food sake that does not interfere with the meal. Why not just drink water or tea? It is interesting to compare various inexpensive lines of sake.

I wanted a single bottle. What the heck, I got it at Yodobashi.com at a fixed price with free shipping. I wondered if they make any money on free shipping. I immediately heated it up in the microwave. It was easy to drink, with a nice aged aroma, and I finished it in no time, but it was 17 degrees, so the drunkenness followed. Kenrishi can be found in all supermarkets, probably because it is in constant demand. It is a good sake. Tax included 380 (180ml)

A regular fire-aged standard sake. There is nothing special about the aroma or taste, and at worst, it is characterless. To put it better, it is a beautiful classic food sake. Recently, Hatsukame has been drinking Jungin, unfiltered Nama sake, and Shusaku, all of which have a modern feel, so there is a big gap between the two. Jungin is a better pairing as a food sake, so it is a bit tough.

I bought the M version at a liquor store in Niigata last year and enjoyed it so much that I bought the nama-shu version as well. It has an aroma and flavor that can be enjoyed on its own, and is not like an inexpensive alsode regular sake. It is easy to drink. This time I bought a four-pack, but I recommend buying a one-pack because it is more expensive. A bottle of sake is less than 2,500 yen including tax. I wish more sake like this would be available. 1540 including tax

Nama sake is sold once a year at this time of year. This is quite good. The aroma and taste are strong and flow from sour-sweet to bitter. This is a very special sake, but I wish all breweries would make this level of special junmai sake the norm. It was a gift, but it was wonderful that they chose a bottle of this. I finished it in about two weeks. The flavor did not deteriorate significantly after opening the bottle, and I enjoyed it. I guess there are many local sake that turn into something else within a few days. If I had one wish, it would be to change the label to one that is easier to peel off.

It's like a gin-pack version of Kita Akita. Kita Akita is sold everywhere, but this is the first time I have seen it. It says "brewed with fragrant yeast," but it's not the fancy, modern style. It is 15 degrees Celsius. It can be served at any temperature, but I think it should be served at room temperature or lower. The aroma and flavor will deteriorate after a few days, so please drink it as soon as possible after opening the bottle. 1042 including tax (1.8L)

The aroma, acidity, and sweetness seem subdued. I thought it would be a bit more showy. I guess it is an easy-to-drink food sake. However, 1,640 yen for a four-pack of sake that has neither strong nor weak characteristics is expensive. Sake prices will continue to rise, but it is a difficult time for consumers of all ages, whose incomes are not likely to increase. Sake breweries and liquor stores will probably shift their focus to exports and high-end products. 1639 including tax
