Purchased in October at Sunmart, a well-known local sake shop in Nagaoka. Here it is! It's Kikuhime! I am now completely captivated by Kikuhime. After hi-ire, the brewer inspects the sake in the storage tanks to check the degree of maturity and any abnormalities. This process is called "nakagiri" because the mouthpiece of the storage tank is cut off during this process, and the sake that the brewer drinks during this process, in other words, the sake before watering, is called nakagiri sake. This is why it is called "nadiri-hara-sake. It is always impressive to see how rice can be brewed in such a way that it becomes so rich and full-flavored. Hooray for Kikuhime and Yamahai.

Hello, FSB! I see you're a sucker for Kikuhime 😍. I had a chance to drink it outside a while ago and it was easy to drink and delicious 😋. I'd like to try it at home this time 🤗.

Hi, ma-ki-! Thank you for your comments! Kikuhime is delicious, isn't it? It's also great to have a nice warmed sake at home 🍶.

Purchased at Kanese Shoten in Nagaoka in September. I had seen this brand here and there and was curious about it. It is now moving from summer sake to hiyaoroshi (cold-aged sake). Now, the actual tasting. The aroma is subdued. The first thing you feel when you drink it is the acidity. It is hard to find an appropriate word to describe it, but it is combined with bitterness to give a unique taste. It has a crisp and refreshing aftertaste that is typical of Gohyakumangoku. It seems that G2 yeast (Gifu yeast) is used. Gifu also has a variety of good sake. There is also Tsushimaya and W. When I visited Gifu City two years ago, I could not touch sake very much, so I would like to go to Gifu for sake next time.

On the last day of our trip to Joetsu, we bought this at Sake-no-Aizawa. It is my favorite summer sake, Kanehatsu Kazayawaraka. Kazeyawaraka is characterized by the umami of Gohyakumangoku and softness of flavor. I was curious about this sake because it seems to have a good reputation for its nama-zake. The silver package is very cool. The color of the sake is only slightly tinted. When you put your nose close to the bottle, you can smell the fresh and crisp aroma typical of nama-shu. When you drink it, the freshness of the sake bursts forth just like the aroma. It has the umami of rice and the crisp, bright sharpness typical of Gohyakumangoku. There is also a hint of gas. This is delicious and easy to drink! It may be surprisingly rare to find a Niigata sake that is fresh and full of freshness. This is a sake I want to check out every year. But I also want to try the Junmai Hi-ire!

Birthday celebration at a small restaurant in Joetsu City (8). We ended with a brand we encountered for the first time. As soon as I entered the restaurant and sat down, a bottle of Jyushidai sitting on top of the cold case caught my eye. I was excited to see it listed on the menu, but one of the regulars who was already there asked, "Do you have a bottle of Jyushiro?" and the answer was 🙅‍♀️. After my excitement subsided, I looked at the menu again and found a mysterious Shinshu brand that was similar to but not the same as the Jyushiyo. I wondered what it was, and ordered it at the end of the day. The glass poured out had a wonderful tortoiseshell color. There was no doubt about it. It is rich, yet somehow easy to drink. The label on the back of the glass reads, "Would you like it heated up a little? I was lured in by those words and asked to try heating it up. I was invited to try it cold and then heated. The umami extended, the acidity softened, and it was delicious. No doubt about it. It was a very different sake from the Jyushidai, but it was a very nice encounter.

Sorry, actually it was still there. Post-birthday celebration, a small restaurant in Joetsu City (7). Hidakami is well-known for its sake that goes well with sashimi. It has a light alcohol taste with a spiciness and sharpness, while giving a taste of rice. It is described as super dry, but it is more like refreshing and crisp. It is a perfect sake for sashimi and as a food sake.

Birthday post-birthday celebration at a small restaurant (6) in Joetsu City. The master told us that he buys sake from a liquor store in Nagano, and that there are some that are not listed on the menu, so if we ask him, he will serve them. I never thought I would encounter it in my life. I didn't know that Katsuma was a Toyama sake. One word after drinking it. Silky! Is there such a silky special bottle? I was astonished. I will never forget this taste. Thank you, Master...

Birthday post-birthday celebration at a small restaurant in Joetsu City (5). I met AKABU again. And F is alsobe, isn't it? In contrast to the seisonal AKABU, it has a ginjo-style alcohol taste and a clear, light flavor. According to the master, many customers in Joetsu prefer light sake, and he tries to offer a selection of light sake in his store. The food is simple but carefully prepared and goes well with all the sake, so I was impressed by the thought that went into it.

Post-birthday celebration, a small restaurant in Joetsu City ④. Yamasan, often seen at Sawa-no-wa! I wanted to drink this. I thought it might be modern and unfiltered, but it was the first sake brewed with Yamae-Nishiki, so I gulped it down with a curious look on my face. This... A sense of minerality! If you want to call it modern, it is modern, but if you want to cite it, it is a type of sake like Kaze no Mori or something like that, which is characterized by that kind of complexity. It is quite an interesting and delicious sake. I would like to try other Yamazan and also sake brewed with Yamae Nishiki. ... Shinshu Kamerei, for example. (Laughs)

Post-birthday celebration, a small restaurant in Joetsu City (3). I never thought I would run into you again...! Dinshu! I am delighted. Joetsu's izakaya have a much better selection of out-of-prefecture sake than Niigata City's izakaya. Glad I chose this place... 😭 Gorgeous fruity. Illusion of ginjo aroma even though it's a special pure sake. I have nothing more to say. It is wonderful....

Post-birthday celebration, a small restaurant in Joetsu City (2). It was the first brand I had ever seen! I thought it was a new brand, but it was a different brand produced by Wakanami brewery in Fukuoka. I ordered it thinking it would be somewhat light, but it had a slightly fruity sweetness and rice flavor with a light aftertaste. It is easy to drink and delicious. It betrayed my imagination in a good way. I would like to try Wakanami as well, since I have not had it yet.

Actually, I was drinking a lot in October. (LOL) I will continue to post more. Birthday post-birthday celebration(?) I went on a trip to Joetsu City for a post-birthday celebration(?). I went to the Sakaguchi Memorial Museum to admire the achievements of Dr. Kinichiro Sakaguchi, a sake doctor, and went on a ramen tour. When I opened the sake menu, I was astonished. I was astonished when I opened the menu and found a parade of rare sake and other brands I had always wanted to try! I was so impressed by the parade of sake brands that I knew I had to try even before ordering! Even before ordering, I knew I had made the right choice. First, let's start with Fukui's famous sake! It tastes as soft and refreshing as water. The lightness typical of Gohyakumangoku pervades the whole body. It is just right for a starter. I like Fukui sake after all.

Purchased at Sota Watanabe Shoten in August. This bottle was also served at an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) during a trip to Aizu, Fukushima City, and was very tasty. Also, the unusual brand name "Kunigon" left an impression on me. It has a dry taste with moderate umami and sweetness, accented by acidity.

Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan⑥. The last drink will be the first Osaka sake! The last drink will be my first Osaka sake! I had been curious about Aki-shika since I read on the POP of Kanese Shoten that it was a brand that classic lovers would be excited about. My memory of it is a little hazy now, I remember thinking, "This is Akishika with its rich, mellow flavor and guttural alcohol taste! I think I thought, "This is Aki-Rika! I would like to heat it up. I've been drinking heated sake more and more lately, so I'm considering getting a sake heater. (Laughs) Before drinking it here, I bought another Aki-Rika at Kanese Shoten and haven't touched it yet, so I'll get to that one soon.

Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan⑤. Classic zone. And the first Hyogo sake! Hyogo is home to many large sake breweries such as Ozeki, Hakutsuru, Takara Shuzo, Sawanotsuru, etc. Although Hyogo ranks first in Japan in sake shipments, how about local sake? I was not so sure about the local sake. This is also a brand I had never encountered before. It has a nice rice flavor and sharpness! (Laughs) Delicious! It's a memory from a month ago, so nothing more can come out... (laughs)

Pre-Birthday Celebration Sake Love Japan 2. Continuing with the Halloween menu. First Koei Kiku! I didn't expect to find them here... I had a prestigious image from the brand name, but the sake was far beyond my imagination. When you drink it, you can feel the orange! Orange! 🍊! Is it really sake? It is like that. Like AKABU, this is also assumed to be fire-aged, as there is no mention of unfiltered raw sake. Then I looked at the label again and noticed that there is no mention of the rice polishing ratio. I noticed that it is a Tokutei Meisho sake. In order to state on the label that the sake is a Tokutei Mei Sake, it is necessary to state the rice polishing ratio that meets the requirements. Conversely, if the sake does not claim the specific name, it does not need to list the rice polishing ratio. So, since Anastasia Orange is not labeled as a Tokutei Meisho, it is considered as a regular sake. This was a great learning experience.

I was taken to Sake Koi Japan for a pre-birthday celebration. Since it was before Halloween, the sake lineup was also set up accordingly. First, let's take a look at the sake. Here it is. It's not every day you come across AKABU in Niigata, so you can't miss it. The freshness and a fruity sensation reminiscent of oranges fills the mouth! As expected of a representative of the modern popular horseman, the unfiltered, raw, overwhelming presence of the wine! But when I looked at the bottle, there was no mention of unfiltered or even unfiltered draft. I checked and to my surprise, it was fire-aged. Too scary. It would be difficult to drink this and not think it is unfiltered nama sake. I wonder what kind of process is used to make such an intense taste. Now I have a reason to go back to my hometown...

Purchased at Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station in August. I had decided not to buy sake in Tokyo, but I could not pass up Morishima. Because you can't buy it in Niigata... I always wanted to try it because I had an image of it being modern and light. When I drank it, I found that the sweetness had been cut down quite a bit, and it was sharper and paler than I had imagined. It has a refreshing fruitiness and a moderate acidity, making it easy to drink. It has a light flavor, so it can be paired with any meal, but I think it would look better with Western food. Carpaccio, for example. I would like to try the other Morishima.

Purchased at Sota Watanabe Shoten in August. We brought along a brand that we enjoyed drinking at a tavern we entered on our trip to Fukushima City and Aizu. I think it was one of the sake that I was offered by the owner when I told him I wanted to try a sake with a good taste of rice. It was already full of rice flavor! It had a hint of sweetness and fullness, but was balanced without leaving too much of a lingering aftertaste. The mouthfeel is not heavy and easy to drink. It has jumped to the top ranker of my favorite Fukushima sake brands. It is a good sake.
