We will continue our discussion. Last summer was extremely hot. This affected the sake rice as well, making the rice less soluble. Also, due to the low rainfall, the harvest was down 30% in Takayuki and almost 40% in Tenjinbara. Since sake is made under these conditions, it is inevitable that the harvest will be more affected than in previous years. Last summer was a difficult summer for Miyamanishiki. First, we will try to grasp the situation with Miyamanishiki from Genmai.

About this year's Sogapère. First of all, to my surprise, the most difficult to obtain, Le Sachet Naturelle 90, was not sold. The images are from last year and the year before. The number of bottles sold is extremely small, and it is the only precious sake available, in small 375 ml bottles. The brewery seems to have given up on it because the sake rice harvest was too small. Next, the number of bottles available for order. This data was made public for the first time. This is the maximum number of bottles that can be ordered by a sake distributor, and this is the number of bottles that are normally ordered. There is a figure of 88 bottles for 750 ml Numérosis, but the maximum I remember is 66 bottles. As for this one, it is a big deal. The 750 ml is in units of 11 bottles per box. Also, the number of bottles is for one particular distributor and varies from distributor to distributor. This particular distributor, by the way, is a small liquor store. However, it is a store that handles Sogapère wines well and should not be underestimated. The special distributor I purchased three bottles of Le Sacquet Naturelle last year, but this distributor had six bottles.

Today, we can confirm the release of next year's Sogapere Efis. However, we have already entered the New Year's holiday travel season and will not be able to visit Nagano Prefecture until January 6 after the New Year. Dear Kotori. Please make Sogapère home drinking a reality.

Mr. Kawamizuru! It was a 6 magnum, but I got it. 💪🏻 It was worth coming all the way out to Tokyo from a long way away! 😭Thank you for all the careful information you have provided so far🙏🏻

Dear Kotori. I am glad to hear that. A certain distributor in Nagano Prefecture could only keep it in stock for less than 2 hours. Please enjoy it.

Mr. Kawamizuryu, I also saw the situation of that distributor on the web 😳A certain distributor sold out in about 20 minutes 😔The sogape I have longed for is from 6 at first... I will be grateful for it... 😌.

Competition tends to be fierce in rural areas because there are only a few distributors. If a product is sold out in 20 minutes, even I cannot get it.

I hope to be able to go back to the store at some point (with my sights set on 🤭) to buy some more 😊I hope you can get what you're after, too, Riverstream: 🙏🏻

Mr. Kotori. Was it Matsuchiyo-sama who introduced the special agent this time?

Kawamizuru. I had done my research, but when it came time to go and buy...😔Matsuchiyo-san gave me detailed information about which areas along the route would be easy to get around, what kind of arrangements might be made...etc. 🤭.

I had heard that Magnum was also available in some places for stores... so I am a first-time customer (me), but I am glad I was able to get it at the first store I visited when I thought it was a bad idea 🥹.

Is that so? Matsuchiyo-sama is also a frequent visitor to my articles.

From the image, some may think it is Kinmon-nishiki. There is no indication of Hitogokochi on the front label. It is a bit muddy and has a lighter taste compared to Shinkame. Hitogokochi has not been released for several years, and this is the first time I have tasted it. I think it tastes a little light, so there is more sweetness in it than in Nobukame. Still, it scores well over 90 points, and is probably within the range of taste.

It is made from Tojo-produced Yamada-Nishiki polished to 35% and has an alcohol content of 16%. It is similar to hi-ire-naizu, but it is sold outside of the refrigerator and is probably fire-aged. It boasts a unique sake quality, with its umami and spiciness locked in a mellow, yet spicy taste. It is a sake that boasts a unique quality. It is Hi-ire-zashi for its freshness and 88 for its calmness. Although expensive, this sake is well worth the price and does not betray expectations. This time, the sake was served at room temperature as it was bought. It is supposed to be stored in a refrigerator, so next time it will be served cold. I also saw Ishitaya and Nizaemon for the first time at a sake store. Although the number of bottles of both of them is limited, we have a good prospect to obtain them. We have no plans to buy any at this time.

I had the opportunity to drink the ginjo nama sake again this year. Because last year's was perfect, this year's rating seems to be minus a little bit in every category. Perhaps it is because of the sake rice. The number of distributors who received the sake was very limited. Last year, we had to go to Nagano Prefecture, but this year we were able to obtain it from a distributor in Tokyo.

It has warmed up a bit and is not pinging. It is cooling down, so please wait a moment. (About 1 hour has passed.) And now that it's cooled down, it's back on. Somehow, it reminds me of Gekko. But it tastes like a medicine, like yarakashita gekko. The name "Seikai" is written "Sky," but it doesn't taste like that. The sake rice is Yuyamanishiki, but there are too many problems. Can this be used for cooking sake?

It is made from 80% Omachi rice produced in Akaban. The taste is both sharp and plump and warm. The taste is both sharp and warm, and the Yamada-Nishiki rice is half Tojo rice and half Yoshikawa rice. Perhaps because of the rice used, the price is close to 3,000 yen for a four-pack. It is not a cheap sake, but it has an interesting flavor that I have never experienced before. I felt the depth of sake.

Ryoseki Shuzo is well-known for its Hana Yuu, but Suitama has a unique flavor. In this case, Yamadanishiki from Yuzawa City, Akita Prefecture, is used. What happens when southern sake rice is grown in a cold region? We were curious and bought it. The taste is the same as other Suidama. However, it has none of the characteristics of Yamadanishiki. It is more like Miyamanishiki. If I were to blind test it, I think most people would say it was Miyamanishiki. One wonders if this is a test brew, but it is unusual in that it has none of the flavor of Yamadanishiki.

What shall we do next year? In previous years, it was sogapere from January to the first half of April. Except for the Rusake Naturel in the picture, it is not so difficult to obtain. This is also the time when Shinshu Kamerei's nama-shu comes out. Shinshu Kamerei is an orthodox brewery that separates hi-ire and nama-shu according to the season. When the temperature rises, it is hi-ire. Therefore, the nama-zake is only available until spring. This year's Sogapale was partially dry, probably due to the rice used for the sake. It was the first time I have tasted such a thing. For now, we will continue with Genshu Mai. The others I can't say yet.

It was the first time I could drink it. Last year there was a poor harvest of sake rice and the sake shops did not receive any. We returned the sake rice to the donor of the rice with sake, and the remainder just came in. The specs are: special junmai, nama-shu, Miyamanishiki, 59%. 16% alcohol by volume. Unlike the refined taste of Genmai, the flavor of Miyamanishiki is brilliant. It is a wonderful sake. There are two types of sake: nama-shu and hi-airi, and we chose the nama-shu. This sake does not choose its temperature.
