フルーティーなお酒が大好きです。飲みたいものを飲みたいだけ飲める歳ではない為、蒸留酒と交互に飲んでます。 4合瓶で2,000円弱のお値段で好みのお酒に出会えると興奮しますね。2,000円以上は、色目で見てみてしまい、それだけで好みのお酒になってしまう(笑) 味の違いがしっかりわかるようになったら、福島を中心とした東北の酒蔵めぐりをするのが夢です。

We received this at the Fukushima Sake Festival in Shinbashi! Three tickets in a small plastic cup! (*5 tickets sold for 1,000 yen) Other sake breweries have one or at most two tickets, but only this one has three! I was curious, so I asked the brother (probably the brewery owner)... He said, "It's a blend of junmai daiginjos from the past seven years! I see, so that's how they make it. Good sake x good sake = even better sake! That's what it means. Now, how does it taste? It's delicious! Slightly sweet, with a refined aroma, It has a deep but not cloying flavor, and the taste is crystal clear. It is a special brew, so it was a reasonable price. I am rather grateful to have encountered it. Thank you, Yumeshin Brewery, for making us dream.

Kunigon GOLD Label" by Kunigon Shuzo of Aizu! Normally, I would not have the courage to buy a four-pack of this level sake myself, but today I was able to find it at the annual "Fukushima Sake Festival at Shinbashi SL Plaza" and enjoyed it. It was labeled "dry," and to be honest, it's a bit different from my taste, But the moment I saw it, I didn't hesitate to offer my ticket to get it! When I took a sip, the clarity was truly exceptional. The taste was so clear that even my dull tongue could clearly distinguish the difference. At this festival, you can buy a 5-pack of tickets for 1,000 yen, and the gold label is for 3 tickets. The plastic cup is only 45 ml even when full, but I was still obsessed with this flavor and couldn't help but have another cup. Zero regrets, rather a great decision. I hope to see this gold label again next year at the Fukushima Sake Festival.

How about drinking a summer-only sake in October? The alcohol content is 14 degrees, which is slightly low, and the gentle feeling is undeniable. It does not have a strong character, and is very soft and easy to drink, with a firm acidity that makes it a very summery sake. The label is also very summery! As expected from Fukushima, as expected from Aizu! I will get it again next year. (I will get it again next year (in the summer!).

The jacket is wonderful - I am in love with it. I put it in my mouth after getting the information that it was refreshingly dry. In my opinion, the spiciness was not that great and the refreshing was definitely -. I prefer fruity sweet, but this one was very tasty, and I was able to finish it, though with company!

Sake-producing region! Finally, I got a bottle of Kumamoto sake! Attracted by the one bottle per person offer, I didn't hesitate to buy it when I saw it at the liquor store! The bottle was marked "Be careful when opening! I opened the bottle with care because it was marked "Be careful when opening the bottle! Just as I was relieved that I could skip the cork, 3 seconds later it flew open and hit the ceiling with all my might. The taste was fruity and shwashy. It tastes like sparkling wine! Thank you for making sake, even though you are in Kumamoto Prefecture!

What is 888? I found out that they made 1,200 prototypes and the 888th of them was the ideal flavor, so that's where they got the name. The taste is so sweet and aromatic that it makes you think it is a white wine. It has a sweetness and aroma that makes you think it is a white wine. For those who are not accustomed to drinking sake or those who want to start drinking sake, especially women, this is a good place to start.

Good morning, Mr. Kappuku! I didn't know 888 meant that😲. I've read your review and it seems to be sweet and sour as well? My imagination is running wild 😁✨✨. I would love to try it if I come across it 😋.

Good evening, ma-ki-. Thank you for your comment. Yes, it is really white wine with a strong acidity. Then I will drink white wine! Please don't say that lol. Since it has a strong personality, I thought it would be good to open it with the first toast when some of us get together. Please try it for a story when you meet them!

Tenmei Sangyo, also purchased at a liquor store in Aizu Sakashita-cho. How many bottles of Tenmei did you buy? I think lol. This one has a sake degree of +5 on the specs. I like sweet sake, but it is still spicy! The umami and the acidity at the end are impressive. It has a strong acidity, which I like a lot. I read the beautiful text on the label. I was strongly impressed by it and drank it with all my heart! Tenmei, Tenmei, Tenmei, and three bottles in one day is giving too many seals lol.

Also purchased in Aizu Sakashita-cho. Continuing on with Tenmei and Aki-agari. It had an apple-like sourness and a more refined taste. It also has a nice aroma that is typical of nama-zake, and I like it. I am getting addicted to Tenmei.

On the way back from a mountain climbing trip to Fukushima with a friend, my friend purchased this sake at a liquor store in Aizu Sakashita-cho! While many obviously good sake were chilling in the fridge, my friend, a challenger, dared to buy the fire-brewed one on the shelf. We returned to our hometown and started the launch of the climb! He opened a bottle of this Tenmei and I had a sip, and what a complex taste it had! I sometimes see the word "complex" used to describe the taste of sake, and this was the kind of sake that I thought must be complex. When I put it in my mouth, there was no strong spiciness or sweetness, and while it went in easily, the flavor changed in my mouth. Moreover, the changed taste changed even more. It was delicious! What is the meaning of this? I couldn't help but say, "It's so good! For someone like me, who used to actively choose and drink nama-sake, this was a very new discovery, and it made me want to try even more of the various Tenmei!

This Ao was purchased at the Gonoi Sake Shop in Aizu Sakashita, Fukushima Prefecture. I was excited from the moment I saw the store because of the large lineup. I bought this O while asking the store staff about various things. The bottle has a strong gassy feeling, so much so that it says to be careful when opening the bottle because it will blow out. The taste, despite its light nigori color, is quite sweet. It has a sharp taste and is easy to drink. If it tastes this good, you will want to drink the other medals one after another!

This sake is from Tokamachi, Niigata Prefecture. Even I, with my inexperienced palate, could tell how delicious this sake was. It was a wonderfully delicious sake with a clear, elegant aroma and no cloying taste. My sense is that it is slightly sweet, yet refreshing and does not leave a residue on the palate. The price is expensive, but I think it is worth it. I would like to give this sake as a gift to someone who has taken care of me!

Akitsuho 657 is my favorite sake that I buy often. The schwashy mouthfeel and fruity aroma are right up my alley. Today, I had a bottle of the "maka-hakuri" (harvested in the middle of the year). It was a little more expensive than the regular version, but when I hear that it is limited edition, I can't help but reach for it. This one is also very tasty, but the normal version, which is available all year round, is a brand that makes me happy as well.

It is fire-aged. It is not labeled hiyaoroshi, but when I looked it up, I found that it is hiyaoroshi. I guess I didn't study hard enough. It tastes like melon, but maybe with more acidity. It has a sweet aroma and is slightly sweet. It was delicious!

This is also an outside drink. A brand I've had a few times. It's called "dry," and it is, well, dry (laughs). It's fun to drink outside where you can challenge yourself in many ways!

I ordered it because I was curious about it when I was out drinking, but I couldn't read the name lol. I see it reads "Michisakari." As the waitress told me, "It's dry," it was clean and sharp, but not as strong and spicy as I expected, and I felt a little astringent. It is fun to be able to casually try brands that are new to me when drinking outside. I thought it was great to enjoy the thrill of drinking without any prior knowledge of the brand.

Tokudan, an easy-to-drink sake with no peculiarities. It is probably medium-hot. It seems to go well as a mid-meal sake. We had it at a restaurant in Akihabara that has a large lineup of sake. Thank you very much!

Okayama Prefecture on the map of Japan is finally covered! The rest is part of Kyushu. I'll do my best! The taste is described as "spicy," but even I, who do not like spicy food, did not feel it to be that spicy and enjoyed it. I wonder why? But good taste is a good thing, so I didn't think too much about it and just drank it as it was delicious.

We had it at a restaurant with a large selection of sake. However, I didn't have the courage to order this, so I shared a little of it with my friend who had a lot of sake. As I expected, it was a little bit bubbly when I swallowed it, just like sake! It was too strong for me, a weak person who drinks only fruity and sweet sake! But it's fun to drink with friends once in a while. You may become addicted to it.
