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。

I went to Koike Sake Brewery in Hoshigaoka to look for Aouda Honjozo by Kitaya, but I could not find it, so I gave up. Instead, I went looking for a sake I had never tried before and chose Kuroryu Ichikyorai Jungin, a standard sake brewed by the Kuroryu Sake Brewery in Fukui. I heard that it will be renamed from Kuroryu Jungin in April 2025. The rice used is Gohyakumangoku from Fukui Prefecture. Rice polishing ratio is 55 The alcohol content is 15.5 degrees. Sake degree is +3.5 When the bottle is opened, the aroma is discreet, with a hint of orange peel and coconut. When poured into the sake cup, it has a pale yellow-green color and smooth texture. The first sip has a smooth, clear mouthfeel. A slight acidity spreads in the mouth, along with a soft and deep umami flavor. While giving a sense of aromatic fermentation, a slight bitterness tightens the taste. The aftertaste is smooth and clean. The taste is very much to my liking, and I find myself pouring sake after sake. It seems to be excellent as a food sake. It is of course delicious chilled, but it is also very tempting to try heating it up.

Collaboration sake by SENKOKU and UNITED ARROWS This sake is made using Edo period techniques, such as using "Kame-no-o," a native variety of rice, no added yeast (brewer's yeast), brewing in wooden vats, and using a sake yeast base made from raw yeast, and then maturing this sake for five years.  After that, fresh "ori" is added to the aged base to promote secondary fermentation in the bottle. I jumped at the idea of a five-year aging process, but was surprised at the price, which is quite reasonable. ‼️ The rice used is 100% Domaine Sakura Kame-no-o. The alcohol content is 14%. The specifications are as follows: sake yeast, wooden vat, five-year aging, second fermentation in the bottle. Like a sparkler, it has a crown stopper💦 which means... be careful when opening the bottle: ⚠️ I had been keeping it for 4 months, but I spewed it... I'm not good with crowns. When I poured it into the sake cup, it had fine bubbles and strong effervescence from the secondary fermentation. The ori is dark, with a slightly yellowish color and a smooth, silky texture. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is almost imperceptible, with a hint of sweetness. When you take a sip, the fine bubbles spread a moist and delicious flavor in the mouth. It has a strong dryness and a clean finish. It is characterized by its flavor from aging, naturally occurring carbonation and fine bubbles that are only possible with secondary fermentation in the bottle.

DATE SEVEN" is a limited edition brewed by seven prestigious breweries in Miyagi Prefecture. This season, as Episode 4, the leader breweries are "Urakasumi" and "Hakurakusei". Hakurakusei and Urakasumi use the same materials and specifications, but compete on the basis of their "breweries' individuality. The individuality and technical skills of the breweries can be clearly felt in this bottle. This is "Urakasumi style Umi bottle" 😄. Rice: Zenkura / Rice washing: Katsuyama Shuzo / Koji: Suminoe Shuzo / Sake mother: Hagino Shuzo / Shishu: Kawatakei Shoten / Pressing: Yamawa Shuzo Brewery The raw material rice is "Yamadanishiki," a top grade rice produced in Hyogo Prefecture, Polishing ratio is 48 Alcohol content 15%. Junmai Daiginjo (hiya-under-fire) Double yeast: Miyagi yeast and Association 12 yeast When the bottle is opened, the aroma is mild and refreshing, with a slight hint of fresh sweet and sour apples and strawberries. When poured into the sake cup, it has a clear and silky texture. The first sip reveals the same fresh texture as Hakurakusei-style, followed by white grape and strawberry-like flavors that spread quickly in the mouth. The mid-palate is round and soft with a good balance of fresh acidity and full-bodied sweetness. The aroma of ripe fruit and the clean, refreshing taste make it enjoyable on its own 🍶😍. Comparing the two bottles, I wondered how the expression could be so different despite the same ingredients and specs.

The fresh acidity and gentle sweetness overlap each other to create a rich flavor, and the sharpness of the swallow is pale and clean 😄. The finish is fresh, refreshing, and calm. Modern yet easy to drink, recommended as a food sake. As expected of Hakurakusei😍.

I chose this Chiebijin as my first bottle to drink in the Oita Prefecture area. I had only known the name, but had not been able to purchase it, so I had not had much luck with it. DOLCE...I picked it up without prior knowledge. I didn't know it was a noble sake. It's okay though, because it's delicious. The rice used is 100% Yamadanishiki and Hinohikari produced in Kitsuki. Rice polishing ratio is 70%. Alcohol level is 15 degrees Celsius. Sake degree -39 Once-fired. This is a noble sake brewed with sake instead of brewing water. After one year of aging, it is said to have a deep flavor with sweetness and a thickening effect. When the bottle is opened, the aroma reminds one of ripe grapes and chocolate cake. When poured into the sake cup, it has a thick yellowish flavor. When you take a sip, a pleasant, soft sweetness spreads in the mouth, followed by a bright acidity and a slight bitterness. It has a profound flavor, and the aftertaste is crisp and tight without being overly sweet. It is so delicious that you can't help but drink more of it. I paired it with chocolate this time and it goes well with it 😄.

KUWAGATA" assembled by United Arrows with Sentori's "Kabutomushi" as a pace...2024 Label is a seal type We woke up "Kuwagata" which had been hibernating for a year. After this, this year's "Kuwagata" is coming up, so I am planning to compare them. The rice used is 80% Yamadanishiki from Domaine Sakura and 80% Kame-no-o from Domaine Sakura. Domaine Sakura Kame-no-o: 20%. Polishing ratio is 90 Alcohol level is 14 degrees Celsius. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is not very fragrant, with a faint, fresh smell. When poured into the sake cup, it has a slightly yellowish color and smooth texture. When you take a sip, the taste is clean and light on the palate. The sweetness and acidity are well balanced, giving it a rich flavor, and the slight bitterness forms a depth of flavor. Honey lemon soaked in citrus peel is an odd thing to say 😄.  It's like an adult lemonade that has become very rounded, probably because it's been sitting for a year.  It is like a sweet and sour "Kabutomushi" like lemon squash, but with a rich "Kokusamame" flavor, making it very tasty.  Sentori is still delicious when drunk in this way.  I'm looking forward to opening a bottle of UA Kuwagata, which has returned to Edo this season.

It was sold in January during the prohibition period, and I managed to just buy a bottle and put it to bed for six months. Because of the prohibition period, I couldn't open the bottle right away. Recently, my taste for dry sake has been changing, and I have not been able to get my hands on it, but I wanted to drink a modern taste once in a while, so I awakened it from its half-year slumber. SENKOKU and SAKELABO TOKYO's limited PB 4th Ganbarou Ishikawa label The 4th is a light cloudy sake brewed with SENKYO's Edo-style brewing philosophy. The raw material rice is Domaine Sakura. 100% Yamadanishiki Alcohol content is 13 degrees Celsius When the bottle is opened, the aroma is gentle and lactic, with faint hints of banana and lychee. When poured into the sake cup, it is slightly cloudy and smooth. When you take a sip, you can still feel the slight fizzy, chili-like sensation. Perhaps it has been left too long. The sake has a good acidity and a clear, not-too-sweet umami. It is a sake yeast yeast yeast, but it is not heavy. It is light and refreshing, but you can also enjoy the richness of the original sake. It is light and juicy, with a lingering acidity that is typical of Sengoku. It is refreshing and delicious to drink. It is not too sweet, and the slight bitterness at the end is a nice accent. I recommend this bottle to everyone.

As a first for the Hokkaido area, we chose a dry special junmai sake from Kamikawa Taisetsu. The raw material rice is Ginpu from Aibetsu Town, Hokkaido. Polishing ratio is 60 Alcohol level is 16 degrees Celsius. It is a special junmai fire-aged sake. Sake degree is +6 dry. The bottle is opened with a screw cap. When the bottle is opened, the mild aroma spreads softly. A faint smell of grain can be detected. When poured into the sake cup, it is clear and silky. When you take a sip, the mouthfeel is as clear as water. The rice flavor slowly spreads in the mouth, and as the flavor spreads, a light sweetness and beautiful acidity form a dry taste that gives it a deep flavor. When swallowed, the dry spiciness follows with a crisp and light throat, and the aftertaste is crisp. It is dry and tasty, just the way I like it these days. It would also be delicious heated 😍.

A cup of Atago no Matsu sake, Musubi Maru version, purchased with ZAO at Marushu Sake Shop in Shiroishi City during a trip to Miyagi Prefecture. It is a special pure rice. The rice used is domestic rice. Polishing ratio is polished up to 60% by flattening. The alcohol content is 15 degrees Celsius. The aroma when the bottle is opened is light and wafting. It has a gentle sweet smell like melon. When poured into the sake cup, it is clear and smooth. As you take a sip, a gentle sweetness spreads slightly in the mouth, followed by a light pungency or bitterness. As it is swallowed, it disappears quickly and crisply. This sharpness makes it easy to drink despite its alcohol content. It is perfect as a food sake, and its flavor increases when paired with a meal.

I had to abstain from drinking for a week due to an inspection. I chose Urakasumi Junmai Summer Sake🍶 from Miyagi Prefecture as my first sake after a week of sobriety.  I was excited to see what this summer sake from Urakasumi, which I usually drink, would taste like, as it was my first time drinking it. The rice used was "Manamusume" from Miyagi Prefecture. Rice polishing ratio is 65 Alcohol level is 15 Fire-aged & watered type We changed the sake cup from the traditional snake-eyed cup to the "SHUWAN" cup, I finally changed it to "SHUWAN". When the sake cup gets bigger, you have to be careful not to drink too much: ⚠️ 🖐️ The aroma when the bottle is opened smells like melon. When poured into the sake cup, it is very clear and smooth. When you take a sip, it is light on the palate. A slight sweetness like melon pulp spreads in the mouth, but it quickly fades away like water. When swallowed, a slight bitterness can be felt, and it has a clear and crisp taste. Although it is said to be watered down, it never feels diluted. The balance between umami and sweetness is refreshing and just right. It is light on the palate for its alcohol content, so you can drink it in large gulps 😱. Summer Sake Yabashi ☀️ It tastes great chilled 😋.

Continuing from the previous issue, this bottle was purchased at Izumiya Sake Shop in Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture. I would have preferred to buy it at the brewery, but with my schedule, I bought it here. This is the second sake from the Niida family, following the "Odayaka" we had last year. The rice used for this sake is naturally grown rice called Toyonishiki. Polishing ratio is 85%. The alcohol content is a low 13%. Kumi-dashi four-stage brewing with sake brewer's yeast Bottle is once fired to preserve the freshness. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and sweet. When poured into the sake cup, it has a gentle, slightly effervescent, light nigorigo color. When you take a sip, you will feel the lightness of the slight effervescence with a gentle mouthfeel. A round sweetness and a sourness derived from the sake's traditional sake brewing process spread through the mouth. When swallowed, the slight bitterness quickly fades away, leaving a clear aftertaste. Shizenshu is very easy to drink, with a good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity. It is a gubigubi type of sake, yet it is very intoxicating and delicious 😋.

This bottle was purchased at Izumiya Sake Shop in Koriyama, Fukushima Prefecture. The store was overflowing with customers who came to the store incessantly, including myself 😱. The bottle I bought at Izumiya Sake Shop was "Gakki Masamune", which was a first for me. I was attracted by the retro label and picked it up. I was told that it was a daiginjo-shu with the specs of a sake to be entered in a sake competition. The rice used is Yumeko, with brewing alcohol added. Rice polishing ratio is 43%. The alcohol content is 15 degrees Celsius. When the bottle is opened, it has a fresh aroma. When poured into the sake cup, the sake is clear and smooth. When you take a sip, you can smell the green apple-like ginjo aroma that spreads in the mouth. The palate is smooth, with a slight gasiness and a clear, crisp taste. After that, the calm umami and sweetness swell, but they disappear quickly and crisply, leaving behind a refreshing aftertaste. The brewer's alcohol is not overly assertive, but rather harmonizes nicely with the flavorful finish. The rest of the lineup is also something to look forward to.

Like the "Houhai Junmai Daiginjo" uploaded earlier, this was a gift from the end of last year. It is brewed by Miura Shuzo in Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture. The rice used is domestic rice, specially cultivated Yamadanishiki produced in Nishiwaki, Hyogo Prefecture. Polishing ratio is 39%. Sake degree is +1 Alcohol level is 15 When the bottle is opened, the aroma is mild and sweet like muscat. When poured into the sake cup, it has a clear, slightly thickened texture. The first sip is smooth, and the fresh, full flavor spreads quickly. The sweetness is subtle and less pronounced than that of Toyobai's limited edition. The umami is stronger than the sweetness. Later, the acidity spreads in the mouth and a slight astringency is felt. The sweet aroma that accompanies swallowing rises to the surface. The lingering sweet umami lingers heavily on the palate, thickening on the tongue while remaining crisp and clean. Personally, I have the impression that Toyobai is a delicious sake that can be enjoyed on its own.

This is my first time to drink Shiga Prefecture's sake. I've always been curious about this sake... I was attracted by the label, so I bought it on impulse😅. Savor the flavor" which uses "flower yeast" has been improved as Pt.2. Brewing number: 48 The raw material rice is Watabune No. 2 produced in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. Polishing ratio: 50%. Yeast: Tokyo University of Agriculture Flower Yeast Sakura Alcohol content is 15 When the bottle is opened, the aroma is faintly sweet, which is probably due to the flower yeast. When poured into the sake cup, it has a clear, slightly thickened texture. When you take a sip, the delicate sweetness and umami spread quickly in your mouth. The aroma becomes more intense and the flavor richer as you sip. The aftertaste is also soft, and the calm acidity from the sake brewing process combines with the umami to give it a deep flavor. It has a lingering aftertaste that is different from the other sakes we have had so far. Anyway, the aroma stands out, and the complex flavor, sweetness, and calm acidity combine to give a satisfying feeling. Personally, I can enjoy this 🍶 by itself.

This cup of sake was purchased at the JA Kokora Azuma store in Fukushima Prefecture, which I visited in search of cherries🍒. It is a honjozo dry sake brewed by Okunomatsu Shuzo in Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture, which won the world's top prize in a sake contest. It is designed with a red beko stuck in the boar's mouth. It is a jacket purchase at first sight😊. Ingredient rice is domestic rice. Brewing alcohol added. Polishing ratio is 65 Alcohol content is 15 Sake degree is +2 The aroma upon opening the bottle is slightly sweet with a hint of alcohol, but it is not harsh. The sake in the cup is clear and smooth. The first sip is unexpectedly smooth, with a hint of sweetness that spreads in the mouth but fades away, leaving a clean, crisp, dry taste down the throat. It has a solid structure, and as you continue to drink it, the flavor seems to deepen. You will never get tired of drinking it. Personally, I used to think that honjozo sake was not my favorite, but I was able to enjoy it, perhaps due to a change in taste. I may have been too much afraid of it because of my dislike for it.

Taking a sip, it has a smooth mouthfeel with a round sweetness that spreads in the mouth. The acidity is restrained, leaving a clean and crisp aftertaste.

This is a gift from the Miura Sake Brewery in Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture. It is a limited edition sake that is sold only at the sake brewery's direct sales outlets. It was produced in October 2024, so it has been laid down for about half a year. Toyobai is the first time🍶. The first Toyobai is a limited edition only at the brewery...it's a luxurious taste. The rice used is "unknown". Polishing ratio is 49%. Alcohol level is 15-16 degrees Celsius. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is discreet, with a faint, light sweet smell. When poured into the sake cup, it has a clear, slightly thickened texture. The sweetness has a coherent sweetness that spreads in a soft mouthfeel, and the umami has a simple but coarse impression, with 70% sweetness and 30% umami. The sweet aroma that accompanies swallowing is sweet, with a slight hint of sourness and astringency that tightens the overall flavor. The sweet flavor lingers until the end. The taste is crisp and clean, while thickening on the tongue. Personally, it is a delicious 🍶 that can be savored on its own 😊.

The rice used is 100% Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki. Polishing ratio is 50% for Koji rice Kake rice: 60 Alcohol level is 14 degrees. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and citrusy. When poured into the sake cup, it has a clear, silky texture. When you take a sip, a refreshing, clear acidity precedes the first sip. After the acidity, the umami of rice can be felt in the mouth. You will be impressed by the umami without any cloying taste. The acidity, described as lemon squash, lingers as an aftertaste. It has a sourness and umami that makes you want to drink more 😊. I can understand why it pairs well with tempura and other fried foods.

When the bottle is opened, the aroma is slightly fruity. When poured into the sake cup, it has a smooth, slightly yellowish flavor. When you sip it, it has a clear mouthfeel. The mouth is filled with a rich, dense sweetness, while the tongue is filled with an enveloping acidity that gives it a fruity peach and berry-like flavor. Finally, a slight bitterness finishes it off. This is delicious 😋 You can drink it smoothly without feeling the alcohol of 16 degrees Celsius.
