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.

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!

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

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).

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.

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.

Junmai Ginjo of Fukushin, light nigori. The cherry and pink label evokes a spring-only product. It is bottled from a slightly cloudy portion called arabashiri, so it is slightly cloudy when poured into a cup. It has 16% alcohol by volume and +1 sake, so it feels spicy to me. After this spiciness, the unique sweetness of sake appears. Easy to drink sake!

Ran-no-yu "Sakura-kei" Junmai Ginjo-shu, a sake received from a friend of my wife's. My wife's friend is related to the brewer, Yamasei Shuzo, and we have ordered from them on the Internet before. We are very happy to receive this sake! The first sip is sweet, as is typical of today's sake, but then the spiciness characteristic of this brewery spreads in the mouth. There is no indication of the sake level, but it seems to be on the positive side. The alcohol content is high at 16~17 degrees. It is close to the original sake, which is the specialty of Yamanari Shuzo. I wonder if you can register "Yamanari Shuzo" in this app.

Purchased at Gami Sake Store in Hitachi City, 2,920 yen per bottle. Stored in a shed outside. It has a clean taste, a refreshing sweetness, and a good acidity. I thought it would be spicy with a sake content of +2, but it's a refreshing sake that doesn't feel spicy. Well, it's a very tasty sake! It's delicious!

Shirakawa-go Nigori-shu is available in every store, and I bought it because of the sake feature in the March 2022 issue of dancyu. The ingredients are rice and malted rice, the rice is 100% domestic rice, and the milling ratio is 70%, and the specifications are clearly stated. The ingredients are rice and koji, the rice is 100% domestic rice, and the milling ratio is 70%. I hesitate to buy sake when it says "brewing alcohol" (personal opinion). The bottle is 1,200 yen. The taste is, well, easy to drink! But the taste is lighter than it looks. I drank it on the rocks with ice. It was so easy to drink that I went on drinking until I was about 1cm below the label. However, to be clear, the local nigorizake was better. Tomorrow is the first day of a three-day weekend, so that's all I have time for today.

This sake was recommended to us by the owner, who said that it was well received when he opened it at New Year's. It is a tangy, dry sake that is light on the palate. It has an alcohol content of 16~17 degrees and a sake strength of +1, so if you drink it at room temperature (stored outside in a shed in winter), you may feel that the alcohol content is too strong. I'll try chilling it in the refrigerator before drinking it. I wonder how rice, water, and koji can produce such a clear sake. It was served cold. On the first day, I was bothered by the sake's distinctive positive alcohol content and its unique flavor, but today, the second day, the sake's distinctive flavor has disappeared and the taste has changed to a refreshing one!

Purchased at Nogami Sake Store, 1980 yen per bottle. The sake is bottled from the mash during the production process, so it is still alive inside the bottle. It contains carbon dioxide gas, so it is a bit chewy, and the lid has a hole in it to let the gas escape. It must be kept chilled, but since the refrigerator will not hold a full bottle, it is stored outside in a shed. It is a very easy to drink sake! There is a lot of maltiness in the drink and you can feel the petite carbon dioxide. It is very thick. It is a seasonal sake that is only sold during the cold season! This sake is easy to drink, so be careful not to drink too much.

We bought it at a sake shop in Tsuchiura station. 1500 yen for a four-pack. I tasted 4 kinds of sake and bought it. I thought it was easy to drink because it was like wine, so I tried it with my parents, but... Sake is sake, lol. When we drank it carefully, we found that it was a sour sake. It is a "test brew", so we expect it to improve in the future!

Purchased at Shiina Shuzo, the brewer of Fukushin, 3,250 yen per bottle. The junmai ginjo sold in the store is made with Miyamanishiki, but this ginjo-shu is made with Yamadanishiki. This Yamada Nishiki Junmai Ginjo can only be purchased at the Shiina Shuzo brewery located in the mountains from the center of Hitachi City. Shiina Shuzo is located in a wonderful environment with plenty of mountain water in the highland area. This sake has a fruity then light sweetness that stands out. It is very easy to drink! We have been drinking it at room temperature, but we would like to try it cold. I tried drinking it chilled. Whoa, the sweetness became more assertive than at room temperature. It tastes better cold than at room temperature! I'm afraid I'm going to run out of one bottle soon lol.

Purchased at the Co-op, Yogo bottle. Junmai Ginjo sake brewed with wine yeast. A sake based wine that is completely different from wine! It is more sour than normal sake, but then the sweetness of the rice comes out. It is easier to drink than normal sake. It is a new dimension of sake that is completely different from the sake of the past! It's a very assertive sake, so I'm going to use it as a sake for blending!

I bought this because I wanted to experience a bubbly sake. Of course, I had to chill it sufficiently before opening the bottle. It's a dry, bubbly sake. As a novice to bubbly sake, I find it easier to drink sweet sake. It is less bubbly than sparkling wine. It's good with ice, so I made it on the rocks, and the dryness disappeared, making it easy to drink. I recommend drinking it on the rocks!

Purchased at Nogami Sake Shop, 3480 yen for a bottle. The owner recommended it to me last month and again this month. First of all, have a glass at room temperature. What a surprise! It is a very fruity sake. It is refreshing and easy to drink. It's like a white wine made from rice. I immediately transferred it to a four-pack bottle and chilled it in the refrigerator.

Purchased at Roadside Station Hirata. Old sake 1997. It's a light amber color, and the recommendation is to drink it at room temperature or hot, so I tried it at room temperature. I tried to drink it at room temperature, but it was not good for hot summer. Hiratamura has sake like this. It's a performance to be reckoned with!
