I received a new sake from the production area.
I didn't really feel the special new sake feeling because it is always so shwashy and fresh (lol).
Of course it was definitely delicious.
4.0 / 5.0
Like Senkou Classic, it is sweet and sour, but this one is more pronounced in both sweetness and acidity.
It has a stronger sweetness and less bitterness than the classic.
I enjoyed it more as a stand-alone sake than during dinner.
Sake really has a lot of depth to it, as it is possible to get this flavor out of rice.
4.0 / 5.0
It has a sweet, slightly carbonated taste and is delicious on its own, but it also went well with oden.
As always, Mimuro Cedar is so delicious that I drink too much.

Following Senkori, here is another much talked about sake, Iraka Shuzo.
We carefully enjoyed this sake for about a week.
It has a nice fruity aroma.
As soon as you put it in your mouth, the umami comes straight in.
It is very fruity with a refreshing sweetness and moderate acidity.
It is smooth and very tasty on the palate.
Another sake I am looking forward to drinking in the future.

It is very gassy and quite schwishy.
It is sweet and sour, and the bitterness comes out in the second half to reset the palate in a nice way.
It makes you want to take the next sip right away.
Since it is an Edo-style sake, I thought it would go well with Japanese food, so I had it with some vegetable stew that I had at home, and it went very well.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
It's made in the Edo period, but the taste is modern 😋.
I knew it would be delicious since it is from Senkou, but I was surprised when I took the first sip 😆.
Refreshing sourness like apples.
When the lees are mixed, it mellows out and the flavor improves.
It is delicious.
I thought it was sweet at first sip, but as I continued drinking, it became moderately dry and I enjoyed it more as a food sake than as a stand-alone sake.

In a good sense, it lacked the young feeling of nama-shu and seemed more subdued than other shinshu nama-shu.
The alcohol content is 15%, but it is so light that it seems to be much lower than that.
It is delicious.

Good evening, Mr. Sakegakusei 😃.
You seem like a calm and talented young man 🤗.
He does his job casually, but he's very competent, no doubt about it👍.
Because he is a red samurai
I'm like that 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ☀️
Yes, it was indeed a bottle of Akabu 🍶.
I thought it was just like the toji of Akabu 😃I'm a bit of a know-it-all.
I also wanted to drink Jungin Nama Sake, but I guess it's not available anymore 😞.
The aroma is mild.
The sweetness is moderate, and the citrus acidity gives it a refreshing aftertaste.
We enjoyed it with pickled cod and Chinese cabbage kimchi, and the acidity matched perfectly with each other.
The alcohol content is only 13%, so it goes down easy.
4.0 / 5.0
In the mouth, I felt a piquant gas.
The sweetness gives way to bitterness, and the aftertaste is a bit long. The acidity is not so strong.
The rice flavor of the orikarami is also present, and it is so delicious that I finished the sake by itself.
4.0 / 5.0
The aroma is mild, as is typical of junmai sake.
However, when you take a sip, you can feel sweetness and acidity filling your mouth, and the taste is fresh and juicy.
I was surprised at the taste of this standard junmai hi-ire sake.
I would like to keep a bottle of this sake on hand.
I have wanted to drink Wakanami for a long time.
The taste was beyond my expectations.
5.0 / 5.0
Every time you put your face close to the glass, you can smell the good fruity aroma.
The balance of the five tastes is wonderful.
I am going to drink it with care, but I can't resist and it will be gone in no time.
4.0 / 5.0
It is smooth and has a slight effervescence.
It is sweet at first, but as you hold it in your mouth, it gradually begins to tingle on your tongue, followed by a pungent taste from the high alcohol content.
After swallowing, you feel as if your stomach is gradually warmed up, and you feel happy just imagining having it with a pot of hot pot on a snowy day in the coming cold season.
3.5 / 5.0
Not too sweet.
It has a clean acidity that is sharp and good for eating.
I am very much looking forward to seeing what kind of akatombo it will be next season.
3.5 / 5.0
It has a fresh fruity sweetness and moderate acidity.
Moreover, it has a light taste with low alcohol content.
A four-pack of this delicious sake will be gone in no time, and I would recommend it to anyone.
4.5 / 5.0
It is juicy and full of sweetness.
It also has the unique light nigori rice flavor, which is like rice juice and can be enjoyed as a stand-alone sake.
When Shimofuri Romain is released, it is just around the time when frost begins to fall in my area, and this bottle makes me feel that the end of the year is approaching.
4.0 / 5.0
It is less sweet than other packaged sake.
As it approaches room temperature, it also has a tart, citrus-like flavor.
It was fresh and very tasty.

The long-awaited new sake from Atago no Matsumatsu was served with grilled autumn fish.
It was fresh and fruity.
The umami of the orikara flavor combined with the umami of the ingredients made it a perfect match for the meal.
It went very well with the meal.
As this is the first new sake from Shinzawa Brewery, the golden label has been renewed this year, giving it a special feeling.
The new sake season is finally upon us.

The other day I had a bottle of Kafuda Sake Mirai, which was elegant and beautiful, but this Banshu Yamada-Nishiki has more volume of sweetness and umami, and is also very tasty.
The taste is amazing at 13% alcohol by volume.
It was a good decision to buy a bottle.

Since it is Sake Day, I will have a little bit of sake so as not to disturb my work.
Today, we had a bottle of sake named after the rice used to brew sake, which was named in the hope that the future of sake will be bright.
The clear sweetness and acidity gradually gave way to an elegant bitterness, and finally disappeared cleanly and smoothly.
I look forward to sharing more and more about the wonders of sake with you all.

Good evening, Mr. Sake Rakusei.
Here I am waiting in the cellar too, so I'm looking forward to drinking more and more after reading your post 🎵.
Sake is really great 😊.
