Comment from the Sake Brewer THE KAN, a sake that can be enjoyed like brewing coffee, is now on sale with a new label. The label is friendly to beginners of heating sake, and the aroma spreads gently as it warms up. This sake is a perfect match with food and is like a light that illuminates the dining table during the fall and winter months. We recommend heating it to lukewarm to high temperature. If you are not sure what to serve tonight, how about a glass of THE KAN with oden? The label is by TO2KAKU, the same as the previous one. (From the website of Yamatoya Sakepo) This bottle was a gift. I drank it warmed, and it is delicious with a strong umami flavor. I think it really goes well with simmered dishes!

Year-round products of this very popular series Flavor -Take a whiff Apple, pineapple, and a hint of melon. Every time you open the bottle, you will be enveloped by the aroma. First ~Hold it in your mouth The first taste is light and smooth, but later the flavor rises slowly. The excellent balance of sweetness, acidity, and bitterness is harmonized with the rich flavor of grains. Second - Swallow. The lingering taste is dominated by apple flavor. It is a sake to enjoy the aftertaste rather than the sharpness. The softness lingers on the tongue and nose. Comment This is a year-round product of the "Kuo" series by the famous Tochigi brewery, Amataka Shuzo! This is the only year-round product in the "Kuo" series, which is produced in small quantities under a different theme each time. It is made from 100% Tochigi grown Eggplant Hikari rice so that the quality of Tochigi's rice can be better known. The Ten-Taka Brewery is known for its famous sake "Ten-Taka," which is known for its dry taste, but "Kuo" is a brand line that is not limited to a single image, but uses advanced technology to create innovative sake. (From the Meishu Center website) Mmmm.... It is refreshing and tasty! It goes with everything.

It is an unfiltered sake that brings out the flavor of the rice as it is. The color is a beautiful pale yellowish-brown, which is only possible with unfiltered sake. Try it cold, lukewarm (lukewarm) to taste the enhanced aroma of rice, or hot for a sharper aroma and tighter flavor. Now available in bottled cans." From the official website I bought a bottle on my way home from the station. It was delicious with a strong rice flavor. This kind of sake that can be bought casually is also good.

The raw material is "Yumesasara" from Tochigi Prefecture. The nose is subtle, but the fruit aroma spreads gently on the palate. The taste is full of rice flavor with a mild and well-balanced aftertaste." (from the official website) It has a good amount of acidity and a strong flavor. It seems to go well with meat.

The "Seven Crown Horse: Jet-Black S Uma Musume Shimbori Chris S." is a limited-edition sake brewed especially for this collaboration. The sake is made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture's special A district, which boasts the highest quality, and is available in two flavors, "Stillness" and "Movement," to express the horse's majestic appearance and the dynamic energy he displays in the races. -The "Shizuka" flavor is elegant, calm, and well-balanced, while the "Dou" flavor has a gorgeous aroma with a hint of sweetness. (from the official website) I opened the sake that arrived around the time of the Aoba-sho before the Takarazuka Kinen.... Because it was a waste! I have the impression that it is a more honest sake with a less mineral taste than the previous Symbol Rudolph collaboration sake. As expected of Rudolph, the lion's alias was not an achievement. The dynamic sake has a very gorgeous aroma that can be savored on its own, while the quiet sake has a more subdued aroma and is more suited for a medium-barrel meal. The Seven Crown Horse is still delicious!

The "fruit aroma brought out by the patented yeast (PAT.6119881) has been renewed with an even higher level of freshness! Please enjoy the freshness of the surprising "freshness" from the low-temperature fresh storage. The smooth mouthfeel has the mellow flavor of junmai sake and a rich aroma like a daiginjo*. *This sake is not a daiginjo. Compared to glass cups, the Neo cup weighs only 1/10 of a glass cup! The Neo cup weighs about 15 g. The glass cup weighs about 140 g. Great for outdoor events, picnics, travel, and many other occasions! Neo cups are made of lightweight material and are extremely comfortable to carry." (From the official website) I bought this again from the Convenience Store Sake series. It is a light sweet sake with a slight alcohol content. It is such a sake. It is a good drink that can be drunk easily. I sometimes want to drink it without any hesitation.

This is a delicious chilled Yamahai! This Junmai Ginjo-shu is brewed with 100% of Fukushima Prefecture's newly developed "Fukunoka" rice, which is suitable for sake brewing. The "Yamahai" that Kunigon Shuzo aims for is a sake that does not have the unique aroma and taste of Yamahai, but rather a deep, unmistakable flavor. However, due to the characteristics of Yamahai brewing and the fact that the technology is still in its infancy, the acidity and amino acid content of Yamahai sake tends to be higher than those of fast brewing. Therefore, when chilled, the sake tastes acidic and sharp, and when heated, it tends to be fuller. However, the Fukunoka used this time does not produce a lot of acid and amino acids, so the sake is soft and full without being harsh. In addition, the yeast used was F7-01, which is a yeast that does not use aromatic yeast, and was used to bring out the elegant flavor of the sake. The result is a slightly sweet sake. Rice : Fukushima contract-grown Fukunoka Rice polishing ratio : 60 Sake degree : -2 Acidity : 1.5 Amino Acidity : 1.3 Alcohol content : 15 Place of Origin: Fukushima Prefecture, Kunigon Shuzo" (from Yajima Shuten's website) This is one of the bottles on the way to Fuji Ryukan. It is delicious!

Since 2001, we have been working with local farmers to try our hand at brewing Kame-no-o sake. Sake brewed with Kame-no-o is sold as the "Turtle Label" series with an illustration of a turtle on it. Various turtles appear throughout the year, allowing visitors to fully enjoy the charm of Kame-no-o. Kame-no-o is a rice that gives a very different impression depending on the rice polishing ratio and whether or not it is hiya-aged. (See below for details). Kame-label GOLD is a junmai-daiginjo once-hiked sake made from Kame-no-o rice polished to 45%. It has a gorgeous, grape-like ginjo aroma. The delicate and sharp quality of the sake is refreshing all the way down the throat, but after swallowing, there is a slight bitterness from the Kame-no-o that adds a nice accent and keeps you coming back for the next cup." (from the official website) (From the official website) It was fresh to see the gold leaf of the accompanying logo floating on the boar's mouth. I had the impression that it was a bit unusual for a junmai daiginjo, as it had a strong flavor. Since the sake itself has its own flavor, it is more like a drink to be enjoyed with snacks after taking a breather than as a mealtime sake.

When you take a sip, you will notice a light aroma with a hint of fruitiness. It is characterized by its relatively gorgeous aroma and soft flavor, and the moderate acidity at the back end is pleasant and gives it a crisp finish. Enjoy it chilled." From the official website This is the first bottle of sake we bought after visiting a sake brewery during our trip to the Fuji Ryukan. The first sip has a soft apple-like aroma, followed by sourness, but it quickly wears off. It tastes like that (just like the introduction!). It is a very good dish to go with the meat. I have paired it with meat, and the acidity brings out the flavor of the meat, making it delicious. It is indeed a national right!

One day, I had the desire to stay at a nice inn, so I took the plunge and stayed at a hotel called Toryukan in Yunoue Onsen, where I drank a bottle. It was a sparkling sake that was like Mio but not too sweet, and could be drunk with a meal. This was the first time in my life that I stayed at a detached inn, and it was a great decision.... Each room has its own indoor hot spring.... The dinner was stylish and delicious, and the breakfast was a triple set meal that was enough to fill my stomach to overflowing.... I hope to stay there again when I get my bonus. Incidentally, we also visited the Kunigon Sake Brewery to purchase some sake, which I will write about at a later date. I really liked the hotel. Mmmm...

Nigorizake is a long-selling product for more than 50 years with its unique thick and mildly sweet taste. It is an "active sake" that keeps enzymes and yeast alive. The charm of this product is that it can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to six months, even though it is still a pure sake." (from the official website) As a reward for overcoming the end of a hellish fiscal year, I bought a sake I had been curious about at a stationery store. I thought it was a newly released product, but to my surprise, it had a history of over 50 years.... Truly, the depth of sake is bottomless. The taste is thick and slightly sweet, followed by a slightly bitter aftertaste. Hmmm...it would have been my favorite if not for the bitterness...hmmm...

I drink mostly on weekends, so I don't have a lot of sake bottles on hand, and it takes me a month to finish a 4-gou bottle. Still, I would like to be able to compare sake just as easily as I would beer! In 2024, when I realized the potential of convenience store sake to fulfill such a wish of mine, I found myself dabbling in a masterpiece of convenience store sake. I've been drinking it for a long time, and it's still delicious with a sweet aroma, a sweet, refreshing taste, and a guttural 19 degrees! I looked it up again and found that there are many different kinds of it, so I'm going to try to find some more. Speaking of which, I'm looking for a parallel product that is like an attainment of sake.

The dry Kiku-Masamune is packed in a Yoshinosugi cedar sake barrel, and when it has just the right amount of cedar aroma, it is taken out and packaged in a lightweight, portable paper cup." (from the official website) (from the official website) The last silver cup was delicious, so I bought this one as well and chipped in.... What a surprise! It is mild and easy to drink at room temperature. It doesn't smell like cedar, but...? This is indeed a bottle that can be drunk casually.

REGULUS, the first star of the constellation Leo. It will be the last REGULUS made from 2022 sake rice! (From Yui Sake Shop's website) I bought this bottle because I like stars and was attracted by the name. What can I say, I wondered if there is such a juicy sake. The moment you drink it, the flavor spreads in your mouth. I think this is a bottle that I would like to pair with meat.

To celebrate next year's Year of the Dragon, Hiryu is releasing a limited edition red label! The regular white label uses Asahi rice, but the red label uses Kura-no-Hana. It has an elegant and light texture, with a slightly sweet and gentle umami taste. It has a gentle and cohesive aftertaste. Enjoy it as the ultimate dining sake that goes well with festive banquets. (From Hasegawa Sake Brewery website) When we visited Hasegawa Sake Shop, we were surprised to see a red label of our favorite Hiryu, so we immediately bought it! It tastes less sweet and more refreshing than the regular Hiryu. I think this is good for those who like dry sake. It's encounters like this that make me want to visit the store regularly.

We want to revolutionize the everyday sake. This desire has given birth to an astonishing yeast. It has produced a mellow aroma that "bursts forth" from this low-polished, ordinary sake. When chilled and poured, the surprising "fruity" aroma spreads freshly in the mouth. We hope you will enjoy it at your regular dining table. This is a new sake that will change the concept of everyday sake. (From the official website) I didn't have a good impression of one-cup sake, and I only thought Kikusui Funaguchi was good, but I saw a post on SNS saying it was delicious, so I bought it. I bought it because I saw a post on social media that said it was good. When I drank it chilled, it had a very sharp sweetness and a delicious fruity taste that left a nice aroma on my nose. I'm sorry I underestimated convenience store sake. There are so many things in this world that I didn't know.

Powerful and mellow This is a bottle in which the original flavor of rice can be fully enjoyed by roughly filtering the "moromi" that forms the basis of the sake. It has the original flavor of rice, a rich flavor, and a mellow taste that spreads with a smooth texture on the tongue. This strong, mellow flavor is an excellent match for strong-flavored dishes such as Chinese cuisine. We offer three ways to enjoy a bottle of nigori sake. (1) Shake the bottle slowly to mix and enjoy the uniqueness of nigori sake. (2) Enjoy only the supernatant clear liquid for a different mellowness. (3) Enjoy the strength of the nigori. The flavor will not be blurred even if it is served on the rocks with ice. (From the official website of Amataka) The third bottle for relatives to drink. We bought this bottle when we went to buy mead, which is said to be the best in the world. It was a bottle that destroyed the prejudice that nigori sake is sweet. However, the taste of sake is quite strong, so if you don't pair it with dishes with strong flavors, as described, the taste of the dishes will be reduced to a tiny piece. Tenryaka has been collaborating with VTubers recently, and I think they are growing!
