When I was out of sake stock, I went to a nearby supermarket and chose this sake, attracted by its mention of "super soft water brewing". Oh, my favorite! It has a refined sweetness and is soft on the palate. I enjoyed it easily. We should look carefully at the supermarket section.
At a certain Yodobashi online. Oh, it has a nice aroma, a moist taste, and a sharp taste. Chiba Prefecture does not have much of an image of sake, but it is a delicious sake.
A collaboration between a sake brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture and Odakyu Line. At an OX near a certain Odakyu Line station.

I had a classical image of this sake, but it was overturned in a good way.
It's nice to be able to try various brands from 1 sake.
Purchased at a 7-Eleven in Tokyo. In case you're interested, here's the official website: https://www.sej.co.jp/products/a/item/021470/
Seven-Eleven, please add some more information about the taste, etc... lol.
I finished 300ml in no time with its clear taste, low sake level (I don't know the real sake level because it is not written on the bottle), and clean aftertaste. Delicious.
Purchased at a certain "Sakagami" supermarket where the sake on hand often hits my taste buds. The sound of "arabashiri" is already cool. It has a slight gassy feeling, but when I opened it, I didn't feel any gas, so was it my imagination? Maybe it was the stimulation on the palate that made me feel that way...it is very deep. And it is delicious.
At Shinjuku Keio Department Store. Super rare! I was defeated by the talk of "super rare!" and after tasting it, I bought it. It has a sweet taste, but not too sweet, and I enjoy it chilled. I like it.
Purchased at a Dentetsu department store located between Tokyo and Kanagawa, this sake was produced in November 2022, so it is what is called new sake. I am glad that Hokusetsu is easily available in Tokyo among the sake from Sado, one of my favorite travel destinations. It has a hint of sweetness at first with a sharp aftertaste. I can't stop myself from having another glass (drunk). I like it.
Bought a packet at a certain electric railway department store in Tokyo. This is...very delicious. The sweetness is clear at first, and there is no unpleasant aftertaste at all. It makes me want to go to Yamagata.... Learning about sake means that you want to go all over Japan...! LOL!
Kurogyu, which I liked from a one-cup bottle. I was beginning to hypothesize that a lower sake content would be more to my liking, but this was very tasty...! I guess you can't tell just by the sake level...it's a very deep thing...!
This one was also available online at Odakyu Department Store. Even I, a beginner, have heard of this famous sake. The first sip gave me an elegant sweetness that melted easily, but then I was surprised by the complexity of the taste...it was a magic ball of deliciousness.
Purchased after tasting at a certain department store in Tokyo. As I am in the middle of my sake training, I am ashamed to admit that this was my first time to taste "Oceto". It has an aroma of melon and lafrance, but after drinking it, it has a hard-edged "bitter" taste. This kind of flavor is also good. Sake is a very deep drink.
Nice to meet you, flatsun 😌.
Thank you for the sake from Kagawa.
Ayagiku" is not flashy, but there are a lot of sakes for a meal 😊.
I think "Oceto" may not be used much in other prefectures.
Purchased at Seijo Ishii in Tokyo. There is not much information about it on the Internet, but it has a low sake content and a refreshing taste. Tasty.
Purchased at Kuze Fuku Shoten in Kanagawa Prefecture. It is good to be able to try out a brand that you hear about but can't get very often.
It has a rich flavor reminiscent of brown sugar. It is delicious.
