今年65歳になり、この2月から特別支給の老齢厚生年金の受給が始まった、ラグビーと日本酒をこよなく愛するおやじです。日本酒を飲み始めて50年以上になりますが、かつての日本酒とは様変わりした昨今の日本酒は、別物かと思うほど進化しています。進化ではなく、昔ながらの本来の姿に戻っているのかも知れません。 個性的な酒も出てきています。これからも日本酒の世界を楽しみたいと思っています。 よろしくお願いします。

ラグビーおやじ
The well-known Drunken Whale Special Junmai. This time, we bought it in a PET bottle at the Hasegawa Sake Shop in Gransta, Tokyo Station. Some may say that PET bottles are too unattractive or not like sake, but the contents are the same. It was easy to bring it home from Tokyo Station. I brought home three bottles of Atago no Sakura and Kido Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu Haruno Kaorufu.

ラグビーおやじ
This is the first time to drink Shinomine. It is very vigorous because it is a draft sake, so be careful when you open the bottle. It has a subtle effervescence, but you can strongly taste the flavor of the rice. However, it does not have a mild taste, so it is easy to drink. The aroma is very mild, so you can enjoy the true flavor of the sake.

While the sake rice is 100% Yamadanishiki, the flavor is quite rich, perhaps because it is an unfiltered junmai namaishu, and the umami and aroma are mild. It is a perfect sake to be served cold and sipped slowly in a small flat cup.

Junmai Ginjyo Nama-nama sake from Hiroshima Kamerei. It has a fresh taste, but with the umami of rice that is typical of Kamerei, which is typical of Kamerei. I would like to try the dry Junmai Hachikan, which I always love to drink, as it also seems to be available.

This is the second Purple Space. Slightly dessert sake like the Strawberry Label we drank last time. It has a fine, mild sweetness and aroma. It can be served cold as a food sake, but it is probably better to drink it on its own.

ラグビーおやじ
A sake that goes well with fish🐟, it certainly does. When the bottle is opened, a subtle ginjo aroma spreads. It has a strong flavor for a honjozo sake, and is delicious both cold and warmed, similar to Suminoe from Ishinomaki. It is similar to Suminoe, also from Ishinomaki, and has a very good price point. Dry junmai sake is also good, but this one is also highly recommended.

I guess there are many fans of this sake, because it has a high CP.

I've bought two more bottles since then. The Hikkami and Suminoe are delicious 😋.

Again, I am drinking the Hitakami Dry Honjozo. It is still delicious! I think it's a welcome addition to my nightly drinking.

This junmai daiginjo from the Noguchi Shuzo Brewery in Fuchu City, Tokyo, which was revived this spring, is a junmai daiginjo from Kokubutsuru. It has a pleasant aroma and a slightly sweet taste. It is brewed with local water from Fuchu, and the taste suggests slightly soft water.

Not the flavor I had imagined, but quite distinctive. Acidic, but with a doshy taste. May change over time after opening the bottle.

Two days after opening the bottle, the acidity has softened a bit and the umami has come to the fore. I am interested to see how it will be when it is lukewarm.

ラグビーおやじ
Gobashi's Tolatan, until last year I believe it was sold as hiyaoroshi, but this year it is sold normally. Since it is made from out-of-specification Yamada-Nishiki rice, it cannot claim a specific name. However, it is delicious! It is dry, but has a good sweetness and umami flavor.
