旅先の福井で黒龍純吟と梵Goldのダブルパンチで開眼し、清酒沼にずぶずぶはまった元ドイツワイン党。  お酒はなるべくペダルを漕いで(もちろん非電化車両)、人力で買いに行くよう心掛ける2輪ライダー。  いい歳なんだから、楽して美味しいもんにありついちゃ駄目っす(笑)

A watery type that comes in easily. It is light, slightly dry, and more acidic than umami. This is one of the bottles we bought during the "Spring Tokaido Sake Brewery Tour" at the end of March. It is a delicious sake that plays a supporting role and accompanies meals. It is a special junmai, and the name "special" is not a given!

Wow! Sweet and tasty with a bang and acidity! Fresh and fruity! Mellow It's like a mild lemon squash with alcohol. There are many more in the Takachiyo 59 series that we missed this season, but this one is a must repeat. I hope to see you again next year!

Sourness type, then umami. It has a mild aroma and is not assertive. This is one of the local sake with the same design label often found on the shelves of supermarkets, probably in the Aeon series. The other sake often seen side by side is Asakai from Iwate.

It has a subtle banana aroma, a tangy gasiness, and a delicious sweetness that goes down smoothly. But it also has an aftertaste like no other sake. I can't stop drinking Hiragana Takachiyo. The pressure in the fridge is at an unusual level.... The person who was drinking next to me said to the person on the other side, "There are 6 bottles in the fridge..." I'm sorry, there are 3 times as many bottles in a 4-pack....

Dry, not strong but good aroma, slightly thick and torrid mouthfeel. It has a slightly thick and mild mouthfeel. It does not have the classic sake feel, and has a slight acidity. It was a delicious chilled summer sake.

I went to Wajima by chance. This is the second sake I drank there. It was a somewhat light, refreshing, classic sake type. Even my colleagues, who do not usually drink sake, liked it. It was not the type of sake I usually like, but as I drank more and more of it, it started to taste good in my throat, which was a somewhat strange experience. Sake Boutique Okuda 3-65 Hozhi Hatakeda, Wajima City The sake was purchased at Sake Boutique Okuda, 3-65 Hozhi Hatakeda, Wajima. It was still in business after the earthquake. They had a variety of Noto's local sake such as Takeba.

I went to Wajima by chance. This is the first sake I drank there. As the label says, it is light, more like a classic sake, with a low alcohol content of 9%, which makes it easy to drink. It has both umami and acidity. While many stores in downtown Wajima have yet to reopen for business, we purchased this sake at Freshland Maruko, one of the few supermarkets that remained open until relatively easy to use hours. It has been almost five months since the disaster, and there are still many collapsed houses blocking the roads, but the media coverage of the disaster is decreasing, and the local people are worried that the disaster will be forgotten. As in the case of the Great East Japan Earthquake, we ask for everyone's continued support. We should not forget about Tohoku, though.

Thick mouthfeel, fruity aroma, acidity and sweetness. Slight gassy feeling on the tip of the tongue. Delicious. It is hard to believe that this is a 65% polished sake. It is a Junmai Ginjo class taste. The price is reasonable, but.... We also have a leaflet of Kagura-sama designed by Mai Yoneyama.

The aroma is very classic sake. It is a "kamishige" style sake, as it should be. It has a mild, mildly dry, refreshing taste. After drinking it down, you will feel a sharp sensation in your throat. The label has a cute flower design, but it is Otokoyama's label. I thought I would try Kamikawa Taisetsu for my first Hokkaido sake, but I couldn't beat the Hokkaido Fair that I saw... lol.

The milk from Jersey cows must be so rich that it even smells slightly like natural cheese. However, it is not as strong as the yogurt sake from the Matsui Sake Brewery in Kyoto, which we previously reported on, and can be poured easily (laugh). The alcohol content is only 5%, so it is light and easy to drink. It was a delicious alcoholic drinkable yogurt. I accidentally let the expiration date pass, so I pulled it out and am drinking it now ^_^;.

Slightly effervescent, medium-mouthful sake that can be enjoyed lightly. At 12% alcohol, it is relatively light. Compared to SORAH from the same brewery, it tastes more like sake. I bought a bottle and drank it at the brewery, where I stayed diagonally across the street to use the corner bar. You can try it in a plastic cup at the store, but it is just a taste test, so I am drinking the one I bought at the inn. It is delicious.

It has a slight tangy gas feeling on the tip of the tongue, moderate acidity, and a fair amount of umami. It is a Junmai Daiginjo, so it has a clear taste with no cloying flavors. It was more modern than the Unfolded Sake (Jun Dai) from the same Un series. I bought it because it will be discontinued after this season, but I would have liked to drink more of it.

Slightly acidic. Slightly dry, slightly light. It is the only Junmai Daiginjo in the Tanohata series, so it has a clear taste, but it is a beautiful sake that is not too polished to the point of being difficult to understand. It was an excellent product to be enjoyed with a meal.

The aroma is subdued, with a slight zing. It has a mellow mouthfeel and is refreshing with a predominantly acidic flavor. I thought it was a standard sake that was modest and had little assertiveness. I thought it was kind that the reading was written at the bottom of the label. I don't think most people can read it, though (lol).

It was quite thick, so I had it with soda. It was delicious. I bought this on a spring tour of Tokaido sake breweries. I don't feel so much salt. It may be a secret flavor or an effect to enhance the flavor of the yuzu, but it tastes good without any discomfort. It is healthier than regular sake because it has a lower alcohol content than regular sake.

It was a skippy adult rum. Not too sweet, not too spicy, it was like a soft drink with alcohol. It is delicious. It popped when I opened the bottle, but there were no bubbles. but there were no bubbles and no overflowing. That's just our case. The first sip was quite heavy on the throat, but it calmed down as the sipping progressed.

I went to the Ayu Masamune Fair starting today. I ordered a very limited set of sake to compare. Junmai Daiginjyo Nama Sake "Ayu" is indeed a junmai daiginjo, and I can only describe it as delicious. It has a mellow mouthfeel, mild flavor, and a bit of acidity. The next sake, unfiltered junmai nama sake "AYUMASAMUNE" is as delicious as the jun Dai. It is mellow, acidic and full-bodied, with the difference being the junmai's lack of over-polishing. Then there was the junmai nigori sake "Sakororo," an alcoholic amazake with a refreshingly sour taste. Of course it was delicious. Finally, I ordered a separate Junmai Ginjo "Hatsuayu" that I wanted to try from the standard set. It was both sweet and sour, and had a refreshing taste like a junmai ginjo. After that, we visited Hankyu Umeda, Hanshin Umeda, Daimaru Umeda, Yamanaka Sake no Eki Marche, and also visited Edion Sake Store and Sake no Yamamoto! Whity's Niigata Okome had a lineup of Sake-no-jin limited edition junmai and junmai spring-fermented sake. I would have brought him home if I had less stock at home....

First time at Kuheiji's. Oh, wow.... It's really good. It has a moderate acidity, and if we were to say it is sweet or spicy, it would be about the middle of the range. It seems to be closer to the middle of the range of sake than I had imagined.

It is sweet and tasty, a little sour, light and gassy, and a little spicy, which is a little surprising. The second type, Shin Takachiyo, is just as delicious as expected. It is a bit frustrating that so many new varieties are released in a row this season that it is difficult to catch up with them all.

The aroma is subdued. The clean, pleasant acidity and the alcohol kick that comes later in the throat give it a less classic sake feel, despite its faint yellow appearance. It has won the gold medal of the "Delicious Sake in a Wine Glass Award" for three consecutive years starting in 2019. I made a hasty selection at a kiosk I entered when changing trains at Okayama Station, and it was a winner.
