男女差や年齢、人種などで語ることは苦手なので、全て非公開で失礼します。 初めて日本酒の良さを教えてくれたのは能登の『手取川』 日本酒の無限の可能性を感じたのは、大学を出て日本酒作りを始めた、当時25、6歳の青年、「高木顕統」氏が造った初期の『十四代』を飲んだ時。 今は日本酒の感想を人に上手に伝えたくて、日々勉強しています。 ひとり呑みはしません。 美味しさの基準は銘柄では無く「誰と」です。

Chochin Shuzo's "Chochin Hiyi-oroshi Hiyi-oroshi Junmai Ginjo Nama-Zume-Genshu". All of the small-quantity production junmai sake brewed by the brewery's toji in Tsushima City, Aichi Prefecture, using sake rice from famous regions throughout Japan and subsoil water from the Kiso River, are highly regarded and popular, and have enthusiastic fans throughout the country. This is the autumn limited edition "Hiyoroshi" from the "Newspaper Series," which has many fans among Chochin Shuzo breweries. The sake made in winter is sterilized by fire in spring to calm down the quality of sake, and is shipped after one summer in the brewery when the sake has become mellow and full of flavor. It has a refreshing flavor that is typical of Chochin, and although it may still taste slightly spicy when opened, the flavor gradually deepens and the astringency is softened. It is interesting to mature it in the refrigerator for a few months, half a year, or even years. We recommend drinking it cold, where its beauty and elegant sweetness and umami can easily be felt, at room temperature, or even very tepidly warmed, depending on the person. Rice: Hyogo Yamadanishiki Polishing ratio: Koji 50%, Kake 55 Yeast No. 9 Sake meter degree +9 Acidity 1.9 Alcohol: 18 degrees Celsius Best drinking temperature: 8-13 degrees Celsius

Nishida Shuzo's "Tasake Junmai Ginjo Hyakushoku Beniha" (Tasake Junmai Ginjo Hyakushoku Autumn Leaves) The sake rice used in this product, "Hanasoi," is a crossbreed of Yamadanishiki, the king of sake rice, and Aomori Prefecture's Hanabukiyuki, a rice suitable for sake brewing. The sakura label is produced in winter and shipped in early spring, and the momiji label is produced after a summer of low-temperature storage and mellow maturation. The autumn leaves label has a different atmosphere from that of the early spring. The "tada" of course refers to the rice fields where the rice used to make the sake is harvested, and the sake is completely handmade without using any products other than rice, such as alcohol for brewing.

Sharaku Junmai Ginjo Nagosozake Hashu Honor" by Miyazumi Shuzo Sharaku" Junmai Ginjo-Nagosake, a limited edition sake for the fall season, has undergone ideal aging to bring out its soft flavor and is just about ready to drink. The sake rice used, "Hashu Homare" (羽州名誉), is a rice developed in Yamagata Prefecture for sake brewing, and is also used in Takagi Shuzo's famous sake "Jyushidai". This rice was bred by Tatsugoro Takagi in 2000 and is the result of crossing Miyamanishiki and Tamaryu F10. Sake made from "Hashu Homare" has a particularly good balance of sweetness and acidity, and is remarkably easy to drink. It is rich in rice flavor, yet never boring to drink. Although not as famous as hiyaoroshi, it is called nagoshizake in Chinese characters and is used by a very small number of breweries. In September, when the cool breeze begins to blow, it is a sake that has just passed through the summer and spent one summer in a cool brewery. The astringent and angular taste of new sake has become rounded, and the taste is just the right amount of freshness and richness, with a lightness and mildness that is truly an "Autumn Run" flavor. Rice used: Hashu Honor Rice polishing ratio : 50 Alcohol content : 16 Produced in : Miyazumi Meizo, Fukushima Prefecture

This ultimate junmai daiginjo-shu is shipped in limited quantities twice a year, in spring and fall. When it is poured into a glass and allowed to warm slowly to near room temperature, the elegant ripe aroma that only Junmai Daiginjo can have over time attracts the drinker's attention, and once in the mouth, the soft aroma and flavor spread together and slowly disappear into the back of the throat, creating a deep and gentle taste. The aroma and flavor are soft and pleasant on the palate and slowly disappear into the back of the throat.

Manjyo Brewery's "AGRI KUHEIJI JOSHITO KUHEIJI Inone 5 star". The history and accumulation of the 10 years that Kuheiji has been growing his own sake in Kurodasho, Hyogo Prefecture.... The rice that the brewery grows on its own is called "inone". Since the rice used is grown by the brewery itself, the emphasis is on quality rather than yield, and the brewery has been bold in limiting yields and reducing the use of pesticides. Thanks to this, we aim to produce the best rice (Yamada-Nishiki) for sake. As a result of these long years, only 5-star* rice grown in-house has been produced, which the Kuheiji brewery proudly certifies as 5-star* rice. Using only this rice, it was brewed in the 2022 season and stored for more than 18 months to reach its best drinking potential. The remarkable taste gives the illusion of Yamada-Nishiki grains rising up in the mouth. And while the full presence of the rice can be felt, the aging process gives it a very smooth taste. The acidity, like that of a fine white wine from Burgundy, which is typical of Kuheiji, also enhances the flavor in a round and smooth manner. Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic) Rice used ... 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio ... -0.1 Sake meter (sake meter) Acidity ... - Amino acidity... Yeast used ...

Nabeshima Junmai Daiginjo CROSS+" by Tomikuchiyo Shuzo Nabeshima Cross is a new attempt at a blended sake using Yamadaho and Short-stalked Watarifune, two rice varieties considered precious in the Japanese sake world. By blending both Short-stalked Wataru-bune (Wataru-bune No. 2), considered the father of Yamadanishiki, and Yamadaho, considered the mother of Yamada Nishiki, as a Junmai Daiginjo with 45% polished rice each, we have created a balance and complexity of flavor never before attained. This blend is truly a crossroads of rice pedigrees, with the supple sweetness of Yamadaho and the deep umami of Short-stalked Watabune in perfect harmony. In the mouth, the rich fruitiness and delicate aroma unfolds, followed by an accent of acidity that further deepens the flavor of the sake. The mouthfeel is smooth and the finish is pleasantly crisp, with a long, refined aftertaste. The name "cross," meaning "blend," symbolizes the rich character of this sake. A fusion of tradition and innovation, this drink is truly a gem of the future of sake. Ingredients: Yamadaho, Short-stalked Watarifune Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol percentage: 16 Sake type: Junmai Daiginjo
