The first of three sake tasting (photo left). I never thought I would be able to drink sake from a brewery in Nemuro, Hokkaido, far away from here. It is a so-called "normal sake," but it is easy to drink, viscous, and good as a food sake.

I purchased this bottle without hesitation at Imanishi Shuzo in Nara, as it was a sake sold only during Golden Week. It has a refreshing taste with acidity. But it also has a robust flavor unique to unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. Delicious. I probably should have bought more.

This is the first time I've tasted "Happiness for Life". It is light and easy to drink on the palate, but has a strong Junmai Daiginjo aftertaste. We hope that the hot summer will be a safe one as well, in honor of the happiness of its name and its storage in a snow cellar.

Yamahai Junmai has a fairly strong acidity. It has a strong flavor, but it also has a clean aftertaste that is different from a strong, thick taste.

Purchased at the Kabuki-za Theater in Tokyo. It is made by Tochigi Prefecture's Mifuku Sake Brewery, but it is only available at the Kabuki-za Theater. The label says it is brewed with only rice and rice malt, but "does not meet the standard for junmai-shu. It has a clean and refreshing taste, perfect for a hot and humid day.

Continuing from last weekend, at a festival at a nearby shrine. This was my first time drinking blended sake, but the aroma and flavor are very well balanced and easy to drink. It goes well with festival croquettes. The only ingredients are rice and rice malt, but as it is a blended sake, it does not seem to be strictly junmai sake.

I also bought one! It was a good event to be able to tell people that I became a fan of this sake through Marushin-san. The hydrangea and the stalls were also very nice.

Thank you for your comment, ash! It is a very well-balanced and delicious sake. Every year, Yazawa Sake Brewery sets up a stall at this festival, and we enjoy tasting their delicious sake.

Cup sake for gulping down. It tastes like box sake, but it is Momokawa Junmai, so it is safe to drink.

This sake was also from the Yazawa Sake Brewery in Fukushima Prefecture, which had a stall at a neighborhood festival. I did not ask why the photo of Prince Takamado was displayed on the wall, but it was delicious! The sweetness of the sake was elegant and indescribable. I only tasted the sake this time, but next time I would like to buy a bottle to enjoy it!

Fukushima's Yazawa Sake Brewery had a stall again this year at a nearby shrine festival. This year, too, they served Ginjyan with grilled chicken and freshly fried croquettes. The sake was served on the rocks, and while it was crisp and cool, it was delicious with a mild junmai flavor.

I have never tasted rice from "a bolt from the blue," but sake brewed with 100% of that rice is easy to drink. The ginjo aroma spreading in the mouth is also good.

Purchased in Nara, this was my first time to drink Sanomorosugi as I did not drink it there. It has a mild and well-balanced taste with a slight sourness.

I had purchased this sake when I passed through Maebashi city by train before. It has a slightly sweet aftertaste, but is refreshing and easy to drink. It is light and easy to drink. I would like to buy a four-pack next time.

This is the second restaurant I wandered into on my trip. Since I was in Nara, I wanted to have a drink at Kaze no Mori. When I saw that they had sparkling wine on tap, I ordered it. The refreshing taste made me drink more without any snacks at all.

At the restaurant where I was traveling. Perhaps it is because the store only sells sake made by the Nara Toyosawa Sake Brewery, but a cup of this sake is inexpensive at 350 yen! The sake itself is a junmai (pure rice). You can drink it without hesitation.

This was also served at an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) I entered on my trip. It is a pure rice made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Nara Prefecture. It has a crisp mouthfeel with a sour taste.

Sake from Kuriyama-cho, Hokkaido, which is not often seen. The first sip was light, but the more you drink, the more robust the flavor becomes and the more you can enjoy its junmai-like character.
