けむとうさんThis seasonal sake comes out around the time the cherry blossoms start blooming in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture. I bought it at my favorite sake store, Nonomi Shuzo, because I still had an image of how good it tasted last year. The sake was bottled from the "arashibari" part of the bottle, so it was slightly cloudy and had a slight "trompe l'oeil" taste. It has a dry taste with a hint of sweetness that is characteristic of sake. This is a delicious sake to enjoy at this time of year!

けむとうさんPurchased at Kozonoe Shoten. Mainly served cold. Refreshing and easy to drink, it feels slightly dry. I don't like dry sake, but I pour it into a glass without any problem. I bought it in a bottle a month ago, but I don't have any 4 gou left.

けむとうさんSupernatant, sweet and sour. Delicious. I was surprised to see a large amount of rice residue on the main body. I was surprised to see a large amount of rice residue. It was like drinking sake "with" rice. The taste is totally different from that of the supernatant. It is easy to drink, so it is dangerous to drink it without hesitation!

けむとうさんPurchased at Kasumi, 1,200 yen for a four-pack. Hitachiota Jizake Project. The name of the sake is "Jizake," which is brewed by Hitachiota citizens who plant and harvest the Miyamanishiki rice produced in Hitachiota and brew it using the water of Hitachiota. It was served cold and then at room temperature. The sake was slightly dry but easy to drink and had a refreshing taste!

けむとうさんThis is a special-order, non-filtered, pure rice sake from Kozonoe Shoten. I used to avoid nama-shu because of the image that it is high in alcohol content, spicy, and difficult to drink, but I was attracted by the label "limited special order nama-shu" and bought it. The first sip was not bad at all, but it was definitely spicy when cold. But it was definitely spicy when cold. I thought what should I do now that I bought a bottle, but by drinking it at room temperature, the dryness of the alcohol content disappeared and it became easier to drink. I keep it in a cold winter storage room because it needs to be kept cold. It is a delicious sake! A bottle costs about 3,000 yen.

けむとうさん23 year old active sake Morohaku. For those who support Tomikyushin, this sake will make you happy and say, "Is this year's sake ready?"! Muddy white sake. There is a hole in the sealing stopper to prevent explosion. It's sweet and easy to drink. The alcohol content is 15-16 degrees, so if you drink too much, "it will come~" the next day. So I have to restrain myself. Before opening this bottle, I opened a white wine that was also activated, so I was drinking it with water from the middle of the bottle. I'm going to store it in a (washed) bottle of wine and challenge myself to see how it changes. I'll drink it in 6 months. I need to get some for New Year's lol.

けむとうさんPurchased at the Nohmi Sake Shop, 2,700 yen. Light, refreshing taste with few peculiarities. The taste differs between room temperature and chilled. When drunk chilled, it has a "dry" taste characteristic of sake. The cost performance is excellent for a junmai daiginjo priced at 2,700 yen!

けむとうさんHitachi City is Osonoe, original sake by Kozonoe Shoji. Brewed by Shiina Shuzo of Tomikushin. One square bottle costs 1,600 yen. I recently purchased some sake from Osonoe and the owner, a big fan of the store, told me that he really wanted me to try it once. It has a full-bodied, deep flavor due to its slightly higher alcohol content of 15-16 degrees. It is a completely different sake from the brewer Shiina Shuzo's Fukushin. I am sorry for the expression, but Manka is like "sake with a wild taste"? So, I added a little kabosu, which I thought was a bad idea but was having trouble finding a use for. It turned out to be an easy-drinking sake! I enjoy it cold, but I think it would go better with "hot sake". It's September now, but maybe I should try heating it up?

けむとうさんPurchased at Kozonoe Shoji Osonoe in Wakaba-machi, Hitachi City. A four-part bottle is priced at 1,660 yen. It was served cold. Wow, it is delicious. It has the sweetness of rice and a refreshing taste. Even though it is sake, it is fruity. The sashimi and smoked hamo (hamo smelt) that we had together with the sake were very tasty. I think I drank at least one gou of sake after opening the first bottle. The white wine we had at the same time was a bit hazy. The father of Osonoe-san enthusiastically recommended this bottle. It was indeed a delicious sake!

けむとうさんKozonoe Shoji in Hitachi City, 2,943 yen. Purchased because of the unique label of Mr. Yukio. I am not a fan of dry sake, but it tasted good as long as it was chilled. It changes to dry sake as the temperature rises!

マナチーKemuto, good evening 😆Kozonoe ❗️is quite a maniacal liquor store even though I live in Ibaraki 🤣I used to go there when I was in Hitachi City with a very particular lineup👍.

けむとうさんThank you for your comment, Manachie! I was surprised at the large selection of sake and wine despite being a private store. I see that you spent some time in Hitachi City as well, Manachie-san. We look forward to working with you in the future!

けむとうさんPurchased at Benimaru, 1,200 yen. A four-part bottle. I tried it cold. The sake degree +5 and acidity of 1.8 reminded me of a dry taste. When I drank it cold, it was surprisingly not so dry. It is smooth at a low temperature, but as the temperature rises, the flavor becomes richer and richer. The last Fuji Taikan was not so good, but this sake is a junmai ginjo and a limited edition, so it was a delicious sake!

けむとうさんShoroku Junmai Ginjo from Sasame Sohei Shoten, the third and final bottle of Kasama sake purchased in Kasama during the May holidays. Chilled in the refrigerator before opening. It is an easy-drinking sake with a moderate alcohol content followed by a hint of sweetness. It is not too spicy, yet not too sweet either. It is a sake with just the right depth of nostalgia, so you can't help but finish the sake.

けむとうさんKasama's local sake obtained at the 22nd Touhoku Festival, the second! First, it is sipped at room temperature. It is easy to drink and the sake goes down your throat easily. However, after a few sips, you will notice that it has a deep richness. There is a danger of pouring as many glasses as possible. I decided to be patient and drink it a little chilled. I tasted it chilled. The sweetness characteristic of sake stands out. It is light and easy to drink. The "richness" of the sake was overshadowed by the fact that it was chilled. It is delicious either chilled or at room temperature!

けむとうさんSake I picked up at the 2022 Touhoku Festival, priced at 1,600 yen. I chilled it in the refrigerator as it was made exclusively for cold sake. Light, refreshing sake with a slight sweetness. A little bitterness lingers in the aftertaste. It is a perfect sake to drink cold on a hot day. The blue colored label makes the freshness stand out even more! #Isogura Sake Brewery #Test Brewing Series Composition #Dashing Sake

けむとうさんPurchased at the usual Nohnomi Sake Shop, 2,750 yen. 22 May sake. The owner said it was another brand of Hirotogawa? The owner said it was another brand of Hirotogawa sake. Sake from Ten-ei-mura in Fukushima. First, it was served at room temperature. It has a nice sweetness with a tangy spiciness. It has no strange peculiarities and can be drunk continuously. I thought that a sake with this kind of flavor would be even better when chilled, so I decided to replace the bottle with a four-pack and refrigerate it. It is easier to drink when chilled. This sake also feels slightly dry (to me). It is easy to drink, so I keep pouring more and more. It's a very troublesome sake (lol).

けむとうさんWhen I stopped by the supermarket, I found sake wrapped in newspaper and bought it, attracted by the newspaper. Well, we had just run out of sake. I opened the bottle at room temperature. I got the impression that the sake had a wild taste with a bit of a tangy flavor compared to the sake I usually buy. I will refrigerate it for a day before drinking. So we had it chilled. The wild taste at room temperature is gone, but it is still a dry sake as described.

けむとうさんPurchased at the usual Nohmi Sake Shop, 2,970 yen per bottle. Purchased because it is a sake from Mito, Ibaraki Prefecture and recommended by the owner. After buying it, I looked at the label on the back again and found it to be quite high at 18% alcohol by volume. This was a very dry sake! As I expected, it was more than dry enough for me. But as the temperature rises a bit, I can taste a little sweetness after the spiciness of the higher alcohol content. No matter how many times I drink it, it's still a spicy sake with high alcohol content, lol.
