Last week, I had plans to visit Nagaoka, so I went to Sunmart, a local sake shop. I found a bottle of Gikyo-san standing alone in a refrigerated case at the back of the store! Let's take a look. What a surprise! It was made in October 2023! It's a two-year-old bottle of Nama-wara Oorigarami. It's a contradiction in terms of being vintage even though it's a bottle of nama-wara. (LOL). It was a gamble, but my curiosity got the better of me and I picked it up. Chivalry is one of my favorite brands of sake from outside of the prefecture, so it should be fine! Now it's time to open the package! I like it when sake bottles are wrapped in newspaper for a special touch. Stir the cage well and open the bottle. When poured, it is slightly golden yellow and gives the impression of being aged. There is also oriki and carbon dioxide. The aroma is mild, with a nutty, aged aroma. It has a slightly complex flavor. When drunk, it has the same nutty, aged flavor as the aroma. However, it is more of a flavor than a sweetness or richness. The original flavor of the sake is the umami of Gohyaku-mangoku (five hundred million stone). The light and smooth alcohol taste, combined with the gaseous sensation, makes the sake finish crisp and clean. It is delicious, too delicious! I love Gikyo after all. And thanks to Sunmart, which stocks treasures that you can't find at ordinary liquor stores...

I happened to see this one while shopping at Niigata Isetan last week and was curious about it, so I bought it. It is a standard brand of Tenryohai Sake Brewery on Sado Island, which brews Garakuyo, which is now a nationally known brand. I was attracted by the fact that it is made from 100% Echitanrei, which I love, so I picked it up. When poured, there is a slight bubbling. The aroma is subdued. When you drink it, a sourness reminiscent of citrus spreads. There is a slight alcohol taste, with a slight rice flavor behind it. The low alcohol content of 12.5 ºC makes it light and easy to drink while enjoying the flavor of the sake. However, the flavor has lost much of its flavor the day after opening the bottle, so it must be drunk immediately.

The packaged sake was reimported in February at Shusendo Horiichi-san's head office in Nagoya, Japan. Expectations are high as this one is a fire-brewed sake brewed with Gohyakumangoku. When poured into a glass, it has a fine, slightly effervescent taste. The aroma is subdued. When you drink it, you can taste the fresh flavor of nama-zake. The flavor of Gohyakumangoku can be felt and flows smoothly. Although it is a pure sake, the alcohol content is only 13%, so it is easy to drink without any resistance. The back label describes the flavor of Gohyakumangoku as hardness, and I think I probably like this hardness. I drank it over a period of two weeks after opening the bottle, but because it is fire-aged, the flavor does not easily fade, and I was able to enjoy it until the end. I would not miss Gohyakumangoku after all.

Following Toyobai, I have always wanted to try this series. This is Okuroku, which is often seen these days. I bought it at the famous La Jomon on my way back from the Yamagata Sake Fair in May. It is made with Kame-no-o from Kanegasaki and the new Iwate Prefecture yeast "M7". This M7 yeast seems to have been developed by cultivating the brewery yeast of Kawamura Sake Brewery (Toru Yoemon), which brews all its brands with No. 7 yeast. I had imagined a modern sake, but when I poured it, the pale tortoiseshell color reversed my image. I was convinced that this was a sake with the flavor of rice. The aroma was mild. The aroma is mild, with a slight hint of rice. As you drink it, a soft acidity spreads, and the alcohol feeling goes away slightly and lightly. Then, the umami and sweetness of the rice can be felt, and it lingers in the aftertaste. There is a chili sensation on the tongue, and a closer look at the body reveals a subtle, fine-grained effervescence. While the umami is strong, it is also easy to drink. Oh, this is delicious...! This is a wonderful bottle of a classic Yamahai-brewed sake that has been modernized and refined with the expression of acidity and gassiness. I thought to myself, "This would definitely be delicious heated up," and then I realized that the four-pack was empty. I hope to encounter it again!

It has been a long time since I have had Aomori sake since I had Tasake at the beginning of the year. In May, I purchased it at the famous local sake shop Sunmart in Nagaoka City. I have always wanted to try this famous brand. When poured, it is clear with a slight hint of color, but has a smooth texture. The aroma is a type of fruity aroma with no specific fruitiness. The aroma is fragrant, and the ginjo aroma is like a model. When you drink it, the overtly fruity and gorgeous flavor spreads out, just like the aroma. Then, the sweetness and umami of the rice are felt, and it quickly finishes. The flavor, taste and sharpness are beautifully balanced, making it a very excellent sake.

This time we may have stumbled upon something a bit outrageous. Purchased in May at the famous local sake shop Sunmart in Nagaoka City. And it is my first Ishikawa sake! Kaga is chrysanthemum sake. I am a little nervous about this Hokuriku sake place. I started with a cold sake. When poured into a glass, it has a beautiful color of "yamabuki" (wild golden yellow). The beautiful color heightens expectations for the flavor. The aroma is already rich. The aroma is matured and thick, as if the sugar has been boiled down. When you put it in your mouth, you will taste sourness on the outside. Beyond that, there is a matured sweetness and umami that will make your eyes widen! It is difficult to describe this flavor, but it is like a very yellow, sticky, and flaky sweet potato inside. It's so intense and rich, you can't help but fall to your knees. We had no hesitation in heating it up. The acidity mellows out, the sweetness and umami round out, and the overall flavor is cohesive and calm. As the temperature dropped, the umami flavor came out, so perhaps lukewarm heating would be better. It becomes softer when heated, so it goes more smoothly than cold sake. I had heard that people like Kikuhime a lot, but I didn't expect it to be this good. Kikusake, you should be afraid of it.

Hi FSB 😃 Kikuhime is a sake with so many fixed fans that some people only drink it 😄I saw your review and wondered if the fact that it is Yamahai amplifies the Kikuhime character ❓😄.

I had a very good bottle of sake and forgot to raise it. And I forgot to even take a picture of it, but fortunately I had saved the printed bottle because it was so cool, so I took a picture of the empty bottle. (LOL) This is a summer sake from Kochi's pride and joy, Drunken Whale. No need to explain anymore, is that a bit of an exaggeration? It was released in April, which is very early for summer sake, and I thought I would like to try it, but I thought it was okay and almost forgot about it. However, when I happened to visit Hasegawa-ya last month, I came across it and welcomed it with open arms. As usual with drunken whales, the aroma and taste are generally mild, but there is a hint of sourness. Then later, the umami of rice and a sense of grain. However, the flavor is instantly snapped out of it. Ah, it's a drunken whale. It is the best. If I remember, I want to drink it again. (Laughs)

I love you all! It's Abe. Abbe Blue, it's summer sake. Speaking of Abe, the image of sake is that it is alive and well in the bottle, but this time it is fire-brewed. I have never had fire-brewed Abe, so I bought it out of curiosity to see what it would be like. The aroma is mild. The aroma is slightly sweet and refreshing, like that of ramune. When you drink it, it is exactly like a ramune. The refreshing flavor runs through, with a hint of rice flavor at the back. However, the flavor flows smoothly. It is literally a refreshing seasonal sake, as it claims to be a summer sake. To be honest, the flavor is quite similar to the Garakudai no Hiyori I had the other day, but I feel the axis of the sake as Abe. If you are interested in a refreshing and crisp Abe that is different from the usual oriki (oily) and tangy Abe, please check it out.

The second half of June and the beginning of July is the second busiest time of the year for us because of the addition of seasonal work to our regular work. I've been drinking, but I haven't felt like posting on Sake-no-Wawa... Hmmm, I must be tired. I'd like to pick up my pace little by little, as the end of such a period is in sight. Now, sake. Yamagata sake! The classic sake, suitable for warming up. The label on the back says it can be enjoyed lukewarm. I started with it cold (room temperature). When I poured it into a glass, it was a pale tortoiseshell color. Just looking at the color of the sake, my expectations for heating it up were heightened. Just like the color, the aroma and taste have a sweetness like tortoise candy, but with a hint of alcohol. Okay, heated sake. I didn't look at the label carefully at the time and somehow ended up heating it up (laugh). The aroma is full of sourness from the alcohol. When you drink it, the acidity of the alcohol is more pronounced than when it is chilled, and then the umami of the rice comes through. But it has little of the classic peculiarities and is surprisingly refreshing, so even heated sake goes down easy. Heated sake is good!

In May, I bought it at Sunmart, a local sake shop in Nagaoka City. I was so happy when I could buy a four-pack of Hanamup! I am so happy! And this time it was Akita Sake Komachi! It is a sake rice that is often used to make sweet sake, which is not at all what I like, but I kind of like it. The aroma is mild, with a strawberry-like top note. When you drink it, you can taste the strawberry-like flavor that you have sensed in the aroma. I recently drank Goktaka's Aizan, which has a similar strawberry flavor, but it is a bit flat and sweet, like Marukawa's fusen gum. On the other hand, this Akita Sake Komachi is like a fruit strawberry, with a sweetness and a tartness. I don't like strawberries at all, but I like Akita Sake Komachi because I feel this tartness is cute. And this Hana Yuu has the flavor of Akita Sake Komachi, but with the richness of the rice! It is truly a rich mellow sweet taste. It is sweet and delicious. But it's not too strong, which is why I like Hanayuup. And I also like Akita Sake Komachi. I also want to drink Dewa Sanzu and Omachi... (laughs)

Sado is a young famous brewery that is rapidly gaining popularity outside Niigata Prefecture, Garakudai by Tenryohai Shuzo. It is so popular that I tend to think, "Well, everyone is drinking it, so why not? But I had an opportunity to recommend a sake to someone, so I bought it. When I poured it, the body was slightly effervescent. The aroma was slightly sweet and refreshing, like a rummy. When I drank it, the combination of the slight effervescence and the refreshing flavor made it a true Ramune. And the aftertaste is refreshing. It tastes like a modern expression of a light sake. The low alcohol content of 12.5 degrees Celsius makes it easy to drink. It became a little old after about a week of opening the bottle, so it must be drunk immediately.

My third favorite brand! Iti! I went to the booth to buy the limited edition sake at the sake camp, but it was already sold out, so I bought this Junmai Namaishu... I did the same thing at last year's Sake-no-jin, didn't I? I never learn, do I? (LOL). Junmai sake has a better balance of umami and sharpness than Jungin sake, but I personally prefer Junmai sake. The aroma is mild, yet fruity with pineapple and muscatelike flavors. When drinking, it has a pineapple-like flavor similar to that of the top shelf. The freshness of the flavor and the pungency of the alcohol combine to create a crisp and clean finish. I like this sharpness very much! Since it is a nama-shu, it is basically a cold sake, but when it is at about a chilled temperature, the umami of the rice comes out and it becomes even more drinkable. For a moment, you would think it was an Echigo-Tanrei. I was surprised at how much rice flavor can be obtained with Gohyakumangoku. I like "Itaru" this year, too!

This is the first alphabetical takaichiyo I've seen since the Bear in the Woods. I had always been curious about a sake rice called Aizan, so I was looking for this Goktaka, but could not find it. Around April, when I went to Yoshikawa Sake Shop to buy a thunderbolt, they happened to have it and I was able to get it in time. The body of the poured bottle was slightly effervescent. The aroma is sweet like strawberries. In the mouth, the strawberry flavor is more obvious than the aroma. Then, there was a subtle flavor of rice and a slight bitterness. Combined with the slight bubbles, the taste is clean and crisp. From the color of the label and the vague image of Aizan, I thought it would be cute and strawberry-like, but the flavor was just as I imagined. Akita Sake Komachi is in a similar vein, but I think Akita Sake Komachi has the edge in terms of cuteness. The flavors are similar, but the sweetness and acidity are what separates the two. Alphabetakachiyo is very good in that it is made to be light and refreshing while showing off the characteristics of the sake rice, which seems to bring out the individuality of the sake rice even more.

Was it March? I was looking at the display at Hasegawa-ya, thinking that I haven't had Murayu for a while, when I found Hanakoshiji, a local brand of Murayu Sake Brewery! I was curious about this one! Speaking of Murayu, it is a sweet style that goes the opposite way of Niigata light and dry, but how about this one? The aroma is mild. Sweet aroma that is typical of rice(!). The mouthfeel is sweet, or rather, delicious! When you put it in your mouth, it is sweet, or rather, delicious! It has the umami of rice and the sweetness derived from it! Um, this umami is Koshitanrei, right? It is a characteristic of the Murayu Brewery that all specifications are undisclosed, but this is Koshitanrei, isn't it? It has been a week since the bottle was opened. When you drink it, the sweetness settles down, and there is an alcoholic feeling and a slight spiciness. And the umami of rice. No matter how you think about it, there's no way not to warm up this sake. I warmed it to lukewarm for the first time. The aroma is sweet with a hint of alcohol-derived acidity. In the mouth, there is alcohol and acidity, and the umami of rice spreads! Hmmm. If the alcohol and acidity are typical of Murayusuke, the remaining umami can only be attributed to Koshitanrei. I don't think even Gohyakumangoku can produce this level of umami. Sake made by the Murayu Sake Brewery is basically a stand-alone sake. Karokaro is no exception, but it can be paired with cheese or other rich flavors.

Nara Sake. Purchased in February at Sake Sento Horiichi-san's main store in Nagoya. Tomoko Yamaguchi also visited the brewery on her YouTube channel. The aroma is refreshing, like muscat and ramune. In the mouth, the flavor is as refreshing as the aroma, with a refreshing alcohol taste. It is not dry, but it is very easy to drink with a clean finish, but with a light sweetness. Even though it is not a draft sake, there is a fine, slight bubbling in the body that helps make it easy to drink. The fullness of the Yamadanishiki flavor emerges later. It is suitable for cold sake, but as the temperature approaches chilled, the Yamadanishiki flavor becomes more apparent and lingering, so you can enjoy it more slowly than you might expect. After the second day, the freshness subsides and the Yamada flavor can be enjoyed in its full glory. The touch is quite sharp, but the sweetness and the umami of Yamada Nishiki are still there in the base. This is a well-balanced bottle that is both easy to drink and tasty without being boring.

Yesterday I visited the "Japan's Most Beautiful Sake Prefecture Yamagata Fair," a sake tasting event in neighboring Yamagata. This event features sake, craft beer, wine, and other sake products from breweries in Yamagata Prefecture. I love Yamagata sake, I love Go Ariake, but I know very little about the rest, so it was great to meet all the new people. Also, Yamagata's sweet potato stew is unbelievably delicious. After the event, we went to Shikisai Ishikura, an izakaya that I had been curious about. There were many brands to choose from, but I ordered the sake tasting set. Of the three, the one on the right had a lower sake level than the one on the left. The most delicious one was Fudoi no En. It has a soft lactic acidity that is typical of a sake yeast yeast yeast, and the rice flavor is also there, but it finishes well. It is a good sake with a good axis. The owner also served us other rare brands that were not on the menu, and we stayed for about two hours while he drank a little at the end of the meal. I am filled with gratitude for their hospitality to us travelers. It was my first visit to Yamagata, and I quickly fell in love with this town.

Purchased at Yoshikawa Sake Shop in April. I first encountered this lightning at Hanazono Jun's, which I visited during the sake camp night. Koshi Meikozo is a famous Tochio brewery that produces Koshinotsuru, Motomasa, Ichijo, and Yamashiroya. Among them, this Thunderbolt, positioned as a limited time-only sake from Ichijo, is made with a focus on Koshitanrei. I could not forget the taste I experienced at Hanazono Jun and had to have it. The aroma is crisp and acidic with hints of citrus and alcohol. The aroma of rice is layered on top of the aroma. When you drink it, the same sourness as the aroma spreads, and at the same time, the overwhelming umami of Koshitanrei dominates the mouth. ！！！！ This is it! Yummy! ！！！！ Then it finishes with a bitter aftertaste, and it goes away without any aftertaste. It is a pure sake, and has a mysterious slight bubbling. It has a modern style, but the taste is easy-drinking classic. No, this would be great as a heated sake. So we heated it up. I really like the flavor of Koshitanrei when it is heated up. I really like the flavor of Koshitanrei when it is heated up. It's like freshly steamed sweet chestnuts. The difference from Yukikohbai is the sourness and bitterness. You can feel the umami and drink it neatly without any aftertaste. Koshitanrei is the best. ！！！！

Finally, my most favorite grade of my most favorite brand. Purchased at the Uonuma Sake Brewery booth at the sake camp in March. Why do I go to the sake camp every year? To buy this, which is only available at the Sake no Jin, not anywhere else. I am glad I was able to buy it again this year. The aroma is like a new sake, with a burst of freshness. When you drink it, you feel the overwhelming umami and mild sweetness of Koshitanrei. The alcohol is not too strong, and it quickly passes through the mouth and finishes off. Of course, the freshness of the new sake is perfect. It has no modern elements, so it is a classic, but it is the supple alcohol and sharpness that distinguish it from other dry sake. Above all, it is the umami of Koshitanrei! This is the best! This is Niigata sake! I love it again this year.

Purchased in February at Sakaendo Horiichi-san's main store. Despite being Niigata sake, this packaged sake is not distributed in Niigata Prefecture. It is a reimportation of Rambo rage. The image of packaged sake is that it is unpasteurized, but since there is no special notation on the label, I wonder if this is a fire-aged sake. The aroma is subdued. Recently, I am thinking of changing to a wine glass type sake cup because the sake I open at home is difficult to smell. When I drink it, what spreads in my mouth is a meadow. It is young grass. I can only describe it as young grass. It is a flavor I have never felt before. Speaking of Hachitan-nishiki, the Hachitan-nishiki of Tsushimaya in Gifu, which I drank before starting Sake-no-wa, was very tropical and tropical. This Hachitan-Nishiki has a pineapple-like flavor, but it is not so fruity and gorgeous as tropical. Anyway, it is young grass. The texture is smooth. The finish is not so much sharp as it is clean and flowing. The more one drinks, the more one senses the high quality and precision of the sake. On the other hand, it is too delicate because of its precision. I have a feeling that you have to drink it literally freshly squeezed to really appreciate the true value of the sake. I have a feeling that the true value of the sake cannot be fully appreciated without drinking it literally freshly squeezed. The fact that it is not distributed within the prefecture seems to be a result of the wholesaler's quality control considerations, so it is now a work of art.

I have always been curious about this brand of Aichi sake, GIN. It is a brand of sake made by Shibata Shuzo, a brewery in Okazaki City that brews Ko-no-Masa, a sake made using the traditional method of making sake from the yeast and the yeast. I was told that Sakaizendo Horiichi does not carry this brand and that it is mainly distributed locally, so I purchased it at the brewery's official online store. We started with it cold (room temperature). The poured body was slightly golden yellow and clear. There is almost no aroma. There is a faint aroma of rice. When you drink it, you will be hit with a slightly fruity acidity, like raisins or prunes. There is also a hint of rice flavor. The texture is very smooth and pleasant to the palate, thanks to the use of Kanzui, a very soft water. The taste is well rounded with a smooth and refreshing aftertaste. Next, we tried heating the sake (50°C). After boiling the water and turning off the heat, the sake was soaked for 3 minutes. The aroma remained subdued, with a faint scent of alcohol. There is also a faint aroma of rice. When drunk, the acidity felt in the cold sake has settled down to a soft acidity derived from lactic acidity, which is typical of a sake made from the traditional sake brewing method of "sekiyake" (sake brewing). The umami of the rice can be felt more clearly than in the cold sake. The taste is quite soothing. I like the soft acidity of a sake made from the oldest sake yeast, Yamahai, and the umami of the rice when it is heated up.
