2024年03月に宮城県に旅行に出かけた際、これまで日本酒は漠然と純米酒を選んで呑んでいただけだったのに、外飲みで伯楽星に出会い、食中酒としてこれまで呑んだことがない美味さに感動したことがきっかけで、日本酒🍶に興味が😄 日本酒のこと、少しづつ理解を深めながら呑む酒は格別に感じできています。 自分に合う美味しいお酒を探求していきます🧐 暫く飲酒を控えていましたが再開です。ゆっくり杯を重ねます。

Purchased at Maruju Nakano Sake Shop in Tendo, Yamagata Prefecture, which I stopped by during a trip spanning from Miyagi Prefecture to Yamagata Prefecture in September. It is a Dewazakura specialty store that operates next door to the Dewazakura Sake Brewery. The bottle we were served was a collaboration with a sake store in Yamagata Prefecture. As they claim it is a "Yamagata super limited edition," it is only available at 10 specific sake stores and in limited quantities. The raw material rice is 100% Kame-no-o Polishing ratio is 45 Alcohol level is 17 degrees Celsius. Sake level is -3 Yeast used is Association 1901 yeast. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fruity but with an elegant and subdued fruity aroma like ripe apples and pears, with a hint of rice and graininess. When poured into a sake cup, it has a pale, almost transparent color with a very light golden appearance. The mild taste has been reduced and the thickness is moderate. The first sip reveals a soft, fresh mouthfeel with a refreshing flavor. The sweet umami of rice spreads slowly as if accompanying the fruity ginjo aroma. The richness of the umami lingers on the tongue, but the acidity balances the aftertaste and makes it relatively clean and crisp. Kame-no-o has a rich umami flavor and is not too light. It is said to be characterized by its sharpness and lack of cloying taste. It is recommended to be served chilled, but it is also good heated for a richer umami.

This is my first check in Gifu Prefecture. It is a junmai ginjo🍶 brewed by Yamauchi Shuzojo in Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture. Wooden tank shibori is a method of pressing sake using a wooden container called a vat, which was standardized in the Edo period (1603-1868). The sake is then pressed by placing a wooden lid on top and slowly applying pressure until the liquid comes out and becomes sake. The resulting liquid is then pressed to produce a fine, smooth sake with less tangy taste. The rice used is 100% Gohyakumangoku, a rice suitable for sake brewing. Rice polishing ratio is 55 Alcohol level is 15 to 16 degrees Celsius. Sake degree is +7 (dry) Acidity is 1.45 The type of sake is unfiltered unpasteurized sake. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and citrusy, like lemon or grapefruit, with a light freshness in the aroma and a mild, natural aroma of cooked rice and koji derived from rice. When poured into a sake cup, it has a pale golden color that is almost transparent, with a clear and silky nature like water. When you take a sip, it is refreshing and light in the mouth, and the gentle sweetness of the rice spreads. On the tongue, the umami of the rice and light citrus acidity are in good harmony, and the aftertaste is bitter and pungent and quickly resolves. It is neither too light nor too rich, with a refreshing and sharp taste based on the umami of the rice.

The color when poured into the sake cup is clear, transparent, and silky in nature. When you take a sip, the soft, clear mouthfeel is followed by a discreet sweetness.  Afterward, the delicious taste of rice spreads gradually but without heaviness. A citrusy acidity can be detected in the aftertaste.

When I heard that Jay & Nobby-san took me there, I wanted to drink it too. The next day, I visited Mashidaya and took them an Omachi type. The rice used was 100% Omachi. Polishing ratio is 50%. The alcohol content is a low 13%. The sake level was not disclosed, but the impression was that it was more on the sweet side.  When the bottle was opened, the aroma was gentle and gentle, with a sweet aroma reminiscent of ripe fruit like yellow peaches, but not too strong.  When poured into a sake cup, it has a slightly pale golden color with a subdued hue and a slightly thickened character, perhaps due to the flavor derived from Omachi.  When you take a sip, a juicy and thick sweetness spreads in the mouth, giving the impression of yellow peach-like fruit.  It also has the flavor and fullness of rice typical of Omachi, and a sense of calm acidity that tightens and balances out the sweetness. The mild bitterness accentuates the flavor and finishes off the palate with a smooth aftertaste. Overall, it is fruity but not too light, and the umami of the rice can be felt well. I have the impression that Yamada-Nishiki would be easier to drink as it is more refreshing. The Omachi leaves a slight sweetness on the tongue as the saké is poured. It gives the impression of a different flavor vector from the one brewed with Yamada-Nishiki 😍.

This bottle was brought to us in August from Izumiya Sake Brewery in Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture. It is a ginjo-shu designed by Tsurunoe Shuzo for summer only. The raw material rice is prefectural rice, mainly from Aizu, Fukushima Prefecture Rice polishing ratio is 55 Alcohol level is 14 Sake meter is +1 to +2, slightly medium to dry. The specifications are usually fire-quenched and stored in tanks. It is bottled before shipping.  The aroma when the bottle is opened is cool and refreshing without being too gorgeous, with a hint of fruity aroma like peaches and cherries.  When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear, clean, pale golden color with a smooth and silky nature.  When you take a sip, a slight, gentle sweetness lightly spreads in your mouth. It also has a strong rice flavor, and has a depth that does not end with mere sweetness. The refreshing citrus acidity and bitterness in the aftertaste tighten the overall flavor, and the crisp, clear taste makes it light and pleasant to the palate. It is a light and refreshing summer gin that becomes more appealing when drunk cooled down to a crisp.

I didn't know that Omine Shuzo was releasing two types of hiyaoroshi. I was torn between the Omachi, which is mellow and rich in flavor, and the Yamada Nishiki, which is clear and fresh in acidity. After much deliberation, I decided to go with the hiyaoroshi brewed with Yamadanishiki for its freshness and gorgeousness. The rice used is 100% Yamadanishiki. Polishing ratio is 60 The alcohol content is 14.5 The specification is to be bottled fresh after one time fire-fermentation.  When the bottle is opened, the aroma has a fresh fruit aroma reminiscent of muscat and green apple, and a sweet and sour floral note, but the aroma itself is subdued.  When poured into a sake cup, it has a clean, faintly very pale golden color and a mild, smooth thickening that is derived from its maturity.  When you take a sip, you will feel fresh, juicy, sweet and sour with a hint of citrus and muscat. The mouthfeel is soft and translucent, and the full-bodied rice flavor spreads. It is mellow and full-bodied, with a clear acidity that tightens the entire flavor. The aftertaste retains a sense of transparency, with a lingering sense of calm umami derived from aging. The slight bitterness is well balanced and can be enjoyed as a food sake. Since it is served chilled, it has a strong fruity flavor, but it seems that heating it up will bring out its mildness and umami.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃. I see that you brought home some Omachi. Omachi has a thicker umami and sweetness. However, Yamada Nishiki may be easier to drink with its juicy and clear sweetness 😊I would have loved to compare 😩.

I chose Honkin from the Nunoya Honkin Sake Brewery in Suwa, Nagano Prefecture, a sake I had never tried before, which I was taken to the Saito Sake Shop when I visited the Nasu area. The production date was 0707. The rice used is 100% Omachi from Okayama Prefecture. Rice polishing ratio is 55%. Alcohol level is 16 degrees Celsius Heated in a bottle Sake strength is +3 with a slightly dry taste and a clean finish. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is gentle and calm, with citrusy tones like lime and tangerine, and a slight floral coolness. After a while, the sweetness of steamed rice, typical of Omachi, wafts softly through the air. When poured into the sake cup, it has a very light golden color and is light and refreshing. When you take a sip, you will feel a soft sweetness with a calm mouthfeel. The richness and fullness of Omachi's typical umami spreads out gradually. It has a good balance between a grain-like puffiness and a hint of sweetness, and the lingering aftertaste of calm acidity and bitterness makes it a perfect food sake.

Mimuro Sugi's Yume-Roman series. It is made from Nara Prefecture's only rice suitable for sake brewing, Rohafu, and is bottled and fire-aged after top-fermentation. This is the first Mimurosugi. The raw material rice is 100% dewy wind. Polishing ratio is 60 Alcohol level is 15 Sake degree is +6  When the bottle is opened, the aroma is gentle and calm. It has a subtle hint of rice fullness, with a subdued fruity quality.  When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear and clean character. It is not cloudy or strongly colored, and has a slight pale golden color. Perhaps because of the pure rice flavor, it is not as smooth as water. It is very lightly thickened.  When you take a sip, the soft and fresh rice flavor spreads, but the mouthfeel is subdued and calm. The mouthfeel is full of umami, but the acidity is also effective in balancing the flavor. The finish is crisp and clean while retaining a slight umami of rice. Although it is considered dry, the umami and acidity give the sake structure, making it both light and pleasant to drink. It has a slightly thicker umami than the light dry style, which makes it easier to pair with meals. It is my favorite sake because you can taste the umami flavor of the sake on its own.

We brought a drunken whale we saw in the supermarket. The rice used was domestic rice Polishing ratio is 55 Alcohol level is 15 Sake degree is +7 Association No. 9 yeast is used as the base yeast. When the bottle is first opened, the aroma is slightly sharp and dry, with a hint of grain and nuts. The aroma is mixed with a light sourness. The fruity flavor is quite subdued. When poured into a sake cup, it is like clear water with a strong sense of transparency, and has a smooth, light character. When you take a sip, the mouthfeel is sharp and clear. The sweetness is subdued and the dry dryness stands out from the start, but there is also a hint of rice flavor. In the mouth, umami and acidity spread in good balance. The acidity tightens the aftertaste and gives a clean taste that disappears easily with little clutter. It has a modest aroma, dryness, and acidity to tighten the taste, and umami to support the overall flavor, which is the nature of a so-called "food sake. It is not so dry as to be dry, but you can fully taste the umami. Delicious 😋. I've had it for a few years now,

It's been a long time since I've had Hakurakusei 🤩 which got me hooked on sake 🍶 and this will be my first cold wholesale, so I have high expectations. The rice used is Kura-no-Hana. Polishing ratio is 55%. Alcohol level is 15 Sake degree is +4 When the bottle is opened, the aroma is gently fruity and sweet like bananas and melons. This is followed by citrusy aromas like fresh lime and green apple. When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear, pale golden color with no strong cloudiness or coloration. The thickening is not very strong, and it has a slippery, fluid feel. It is light and smooth. The mouthfeel is moist and soft, with no alcohol horniness. It has a fresh fruitiness like melon and pear. A discreet sweetness and a gradual umami flavor spreads in the mouth. The refreshing citrus acidity tightens the aftertaste, leaving no sweetness on the tongue. It has a short aftertaste, so it can be used as a mid-meal sake that does not interfere with meals 😄. Hakurakusei is a definite choice 😋.

OCEAN99 series by KANGiku Meikozo This is the first time for me to introduce you to Tomiomi. The label color is orange, reminiscent of the setting sun. The orange color of the label is reminiscent of the sunset, and is said to be inspired by the image of an airplane passing over Kujukuri at sunset and landing "arrival". The rice used for the brewing is 100% domestic rice suitable for sake brewing. Rice polishing ratio is 55%. Alcohol content is 15 degrees. Sake degree -5 Fire-aged, single-strain, unfiltered unpasteurized sake When the bottle is opened, the aroma is sweet and floral, with fresh and juicy orange fruit aroma mixed with tropical sweet fruit aroma like pineapple, and a fluffy sweet and sour aroma. When poured into a sake cup, it is clear with no cloudiness and a slight pale golden color nuance. It has a thick texture, probably due to its sugar content and umami flavor. The first sip reminds one of sweet and sour fruits such as orange, pineapple, and mango. The sweetness and umami swell in the mouth, and the fruity acidity tightens the whole. The sweetness does not linger, and the acidity and light bitterness, like orange peel, quickly dissipate. This junmai ginjo-shu has a fruity, juicy, fresh sweet and sour taste, and a sharpness that is completed by a hint of bitterness and acidity. It has a dangerous mouthfeel that makes it easy to drink in large gulps.

Checking in for the first time in Toyama Prefecture😄. This is a bottle of raw Haneya Junmai Ginjo brewed by Tomikiku Shuzo. It is fire-aged before storage and then bottled and shipped raw without being fire-aged at the time of shipment. It is brewed in the spring, matured in the summer, and shipped in the fall, which is called hiyaoroshi. The rice used is Gohyakumangoku produced in Toyama Prefecture. Rice polishing ratio is 60 Alcohol level is 14 degrees Celsius. Sake degree +5 Only one time of fire-fermentation and bottled fresh The aroma when the bottle is opened is fresh, citrusy, clear, mild, and refreshing. The hint of aroma is fruity like a pear, but with a calm smell. When poured into a sake cup, it has a very light golden color and a smooth and silky texture. When you take a sip, the soft sweetness and fresh acidity spread in your mouth. It is light and clear with a rounded flavor. The sweetness is swollen with a clean umami derived from sake rice, but the sweetness, acidity, and umami are well balanced, and the roundness from aging adds depth to the umami. The aftertaste is moderately acidic, and the flavor profile is clear and disappears quickly. It has a light and crisp finish with both sharpness and softness without any cloying flavors. Personally, I think you can enjoy the harmony of the balance of umami and acidity more at room temperature than when it is chilled and fresh 😆.

The hot days are still continuing, but the season of autumn sake has arrived. The first autumn sake we welcomed this season was AKABU's Amber. We were able to purchase it again after last year. The raw material rice is Iwate rice Polishing ratio is 50%. Alcohol level is 13%. Yeast used: Iwate yeast When the bottle is opened, the aroma is soft, gentle, sweet, and calm, with a gorgeous fruity flavor like fruit or yogurt. When poured into a sake cup, it is almost colorless, with a very pale, transparent color and a light, smooth texture. When sipped, the low alcohol content makes it soft on the palate, and a refreshing acidity and juicy, apple- and muscat-like fruitiness spreads in the mouth. As for the taste, the rice-derived flavor and light sweetness are well-balanced and fluffy, with a mild alcohol taste, while the sweetness like muscat or white peach disappears moistly, while the refreshing acidity tightens up the taste. Bitterness and astringency are barely perceptible. The freshness as a new sake is rounded, and the balance of mild acidity and rice flavor is harmonious. The soft aroma and moist, subdued flavor make it a hiyaoroshi sake. Personally, I find it tastes better at room temperature.

This one was manufactured in 2024.11. Screw cap without a hole for venting. Receiving the third snowball of the season. The rice used for the production is from Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture      90% Yamadanishiki from Domaine Sakura      Domaine Sakura Kame-no-o 10%. Polishing ratio is 90 Alcohol content is 13%. Specifications: Nama-Hashimoto style / Nama-Shu / Second fermentation in the bottle / Nama-Shu Assemblage of Snowball as a base with 3 other varieties When the bottle is opened, the aroma is refreshing due to the rising gas from the micro-foaming, with a fruity aroma of fresh green apples and pears, and a light, gentle, sweet and sour, milky smell of yogurt also rising. When poured into a sake cup, it has a slightly thickened texture and a cloudy milky white color. There is a lot of lees and fine bubbles that boil slightly. The first sip reveals a juicy, round sweetness like green apple or muscat, followed by a refreshing acidity that compensates for the umami and sweetness of the rice. The lactic acidity from the sake's natural yeast gives the taste a sense of depth. The acidity and bubbles cut through the sweetness, leaving a light aftertaste. The fruity sweetness spreads in the mouth more than the normal Snowman ⛄️. The balance of sweetness and sourness and silky texture on the tongue add to the delicious flavor. Delicious 🍶.

Yamanashi Prefecture, first time checking in 🎉. We chose "Tadashi" Yamahai Junmai Ginjo, which we were finally able to bring along. The rice used was 100% Bizen Omachi. Rice polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol level: 15 degrees Celsius When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and fruity, like melon or green apple, with a lactic acid smell like yogurt, with a hint of the plump sweet aroma of Omachi and a cool, refreshing smell like green bamboo. When poured into the sake cup, it has a pale yellowish-yamabuki color and a dense, smooth, creamy texture. The first sip is soft and fresh on the palate, with a sweetness reminiscent of melon or pear spreading softly. On the tongue, the umami of rice gradually swells, and a pleasant acidity tightens the sweetness and gives a sense of lactic acidity. The aftertaste is a sharp change from the fruitiness, with bitterness and astringency, and the lingering aftertaste is crisp and sweet without leaving a lingering aftertaste. The balance between umami and acidity is exquisite and keeps it from becoming heavy. Personally, I prefer it when it is near room temperature after some time, as the acidity and graininess make the gorgeous, layered, wave-like flavor more apparent.
