#Sake rice: Misato Nishiki #Polishing ratio: 50 #Alcohol content: 16 Recently, there have been a lot of refreshing sake, but this one is a umami-guchi type. I drank it with satsuma-age and yakitori, and it was perfect. ‼️🤤

#Sake rice: Satoumi rice Akebono (Okayama Prefecture) #Polishing ratio: 58 #Yeast: 901 yeast #Alcohol percentage: 14.5 #Brewing water: Takahashi River subsoil water from Okayama's three major rivers My personal feeling when I took the first sip, Sweet! (Rice is sweet, isn't it?) (Rice is sweet, isn't it?)" "Shuwa shuwa" feeling is strong! (Is it because it's a medium-brewed rice?)" "Surprisingly strong aftertaste (lingering)" (It's a medium-bodied rice, so it has all the good points? (I don't understand the logic 😅)" Sake made with edible rice, not rice for sake brewing, has a different character and is very interesting. #I think it's a luxury considering the recent rice shortage.

The first sip is so refreshing and fresh that it makes you want to rush in 🍋🍏🍐. The aroma is rather subdued.

I bought this Sado sake at Yoshiike when I went to Ueno the other day to see the cherry blossoms. It has a clean and crisp taste, typical of 500kg. My wife, who basically can't drink alcohol, seems to like it, but for me, it would be good if it had a little more character (peculiarity) 🤔. I guess you could say it's such an easy-drinking sake.

It is a sake from Taniguchi Sake Brewery of "Jakuchu" which we had been impressed by at this restaurant before. It was the perfect sake to end the day. 😋

Since my wife is from Ibaraki, we often receive sake from Ibaraki Prefecture and often drink sake from the Tsukii Sake Brewery, but we don't often have a chance to drink the Hikoichi brand! The acidity of the sake tightens up the mouth and makes it a good match with strong food.

I love Fukushima sake such as Sharaku and Hirotogawa, but I personally find Tobiroki a bit special. It is "delicious ❗" without any logic. I am sorry for my lack of vocabulary. For me, it was a gem that moved me that much. By the way, this is a light nigori sake.

This is a sake from Shimizu Seizaburo Shoten, a well-known "Saku" company. This may be my first time drinking it. Saku" is characterized by a very gorgeous aroma, but this one is not so much. I think the mouthfeel is on the mellow side. My first impression was that it was sweet. Accompaniments, Sashimi (sea bream and swordfish) Squid and taro stew I had both light and moist snacks, but either one would be fine. I finished them in no time 😊.

It's been a long time since I've been to Kuroryu. I went to a neighborhood yakitori restaurant and found it in there. It's a smooth and pleasant sake. Since it was the middle of the week, I only had one drink that day.

This is the second of two bottles I purchased during my recent expedition to Kasama, Ibaraki. I feel like it's been a while since I drank lees😅. If you want to enjoy mainly the taste of rice, you can enjoy nigori (orikarami). ☺️

#Sake Rice: Hitanishiki (produced in Kasama) #Polishing ratio: 65 #Alcohol content: 15 The wife barks "I want to eat chestnut sweets, let's go to Kasama❗". (`o')<<< As I am not a fan of sweets, I put my mother-in-law's condition, "If we stop by a place where we can buy Ibaraki's local sake". 😎. So, I made an expedition to Kasama, Ibaraki Prefecture. So I went to Isokura Nagaya and bought one of the two bottles I purchased. It is Isokura Shuzo's flagship, junmai-shu (with fire-working). The first sip was a "umami-kuchi type? The first sip is a "umami-guchi" type of sake, but it quickly goes down smoothly, and the sake goes down well. Personally, I thought it would go well with dashi (Japanese soup stock) type meals.

This is the second of two bottles I recently purchased for Koedo in Kawagoe. Like the earlier Orikarami, it is a robust umakuchi type. I wonder if this is a characteristic of the sake rice (sake musashi) 🤔. It might be good warmed up or heated (I'm not a big fan of warm sake, so I choose cold sake only 😅).

#Sake rice: sake musashi Kagamiyama Ooragarami, one of two bottles we purchased on a recent visit to Koedo, Kawagoe, Saitama Prefecture. It is fruity but also has a firm umami flavor. Maybe it is because of the sake's tailing? Accompanying it was Miso Sansho Cream Cheese purchased at Cardi's. I guess it's because they are both fermented foods, but they go well together. ☺️
