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.

This nigori sake had been sitting in the refrigerator for several months after purchase. The separation was so great that I mixed it well and opened the bottle.
I thought it would be easy to drink while the acidity was strong, but after a few minutes of opening the bottle, it had already solidified in the bottle. After mixing it well again, it became thick and coarse like amazake, and the acidity was not felt that much anymore.
This is an interesting nigori sake that changes in flavor as time goes by. It may be hard to find a nigori that is this thick and coarse.

Another sake bought at a brewery in Shodoshima.
It has a clean yet robust flavor. I've only had two different kinds of sake from the Shodoshima brewery, but both are robust and perhaps this flavor is what makes them so special. I would like to try the other one again.

Purchased at Shodoshima Shuzo, a brewery on Shodoshima. I chose Junmai (pure rice) from the many varieties available.
It has a very robust flavor with a hint of acidity. It is very drinkable. Along with the chicken we happened to purchase today, we ate and drank Kagawa Prefecture's products.

Purchased at Okayama Station on the way back from a trip. Omachi is famous in Okayama. This junmai ginjo brewed with rice from that region has a viscous but light aftertaste with a hint of ginjo aroma and is very easy to drink.

Okayama doesn't have any "corel" sake, but on the contrary, all of them are good.
After Gozenshuu, I guess...
After Gozenshu, is sake the next best thing?

Cold (room temperature) Yoshinogawa for a body chilled by the cold rain. The dry taste is good. Enjoy the downtown atmosphere at a popular izakaya (izakaya is used for various filming purposes).

First time in Gunma Prefecture. It is made from 100% Maikaze sake rice produced in Midori-shi, Gunma Prefecture. It is not so heavy and easy to drink. It has a slight ginjo aroma. I am drinking it with tsumemina, but it would be good as a food sake as well.

It was on sale at a local supermarket, which was unusual for me, so I bought it immediately. When I opened the bottle, I heard the sound of air escaping. The taste is very easy to drink, with a sour but firm body. Delicious!

Unlike Dewazakura's "Dewazanzan Birthday Commemoration", which is also made by Dewazakura, it tastes lighter when chilled. When the sake is cooled down to "chilled" temperature, the junmai-like character comes out, and I prefer this one.

At a familiar corner bar. It tastes easy to drink even though it is a Yamahai.

At an eel restaurant. When we were allowed to taste it with a sake cup, which we were told is quite different for different tastes, we found that the sourness and slight bubbles certainly gave it a peculiar taste.
When we drank it in a glass, the more we drank, the less peculiar it tasted, and the lower the alcohol content, the more robust the flavor was. When I asked for a refill, I was surprised by the owner of the restaurant. It is also a good marriage with eel.

The color of the sake is quite dark, but it is crisp and clean. It has no habits and is easy to drink.

A crisp, ultra-dry junmai. It has a strong umami flavor, but has a clean aftertaste for an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. The Konaki jijii (old man) label is also cute.

For the past few years, I have almost always purchased this Masumi for New Year's. I had purchased it for New Year's, but my wife had the flu and was unable to drink it.
I had bought it for New Year's, but my wife had the flu and was unable to drink it, so I put it aside. Finally, today, I opened the bottle.
The aroma of fresh cedar barrels wafts in the mouth. The robust flavor, which is unique to nama sake, is also very drinkable.

A bottle of sake received as a year-end gift for the New Year's holiday. It is a sake for the start of the New Year. It is easy to drink without any habits. Be careful not to drink too much from the New Year.

It's been a long time since I've had a Shibotan, and it's a standard Toyorei. Dry and crisp.

It is crisp and refreshing, partly due to the fact that it is chilled. It has a refreshing taste, and is a sake of the northern land.

It has been about 20 years since I last drank Jyushiyo, which was still reasonably drinkable 20 years ago, but is now a sake that is hard to find.
It has a slightly yellowish color, moderate viscosity, and well-balanced sweetness. I wish it were a little more palatable.
