ラグビーおやじラグビーおやじ
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
This arabashiri is packed with the Junmai flavor typical of Itsuhashi. It has a slightly high alcohol content and a slightly effervescent taste, with strength and freshness coexisting. It is a bottle unique to this time of year.

ラグビーおやじ
It has a fruity aroma reminiscent of pears, a clear and dry taste with a deep umami flavor, and is a versatile sake that can be drunk as a mid-meal drink, aperitif, or after-meal drink. I was very impressed with this first Harushika. We hope everyone will give it a try.

ラグビーおやじ
Fruity aroma reminiscent of white grapes, with a slight gassiness that enhances its freshness and crispness. Although the rice is polished to 65%, the potential of the heart white Yamada-Nishiki is brought out well.

ラグビーおやじ
It has a thick, rich flavor characteristic of Omachi, and the aroma is subdued. The sense of gas is only faintly perceptible, but not much, perhaps due to the time that has passed since bottling. The first impression is rich.

The first aroma is fruity, with a hint of fruity. The taste is a dry, slightly refreshing and dry type. This is the first time I have had this sake, and it is quite excellent. The recent breweries in Mie Prefecture should be on your radar.

Although it is dry, it is not too light and has a strong umami flavor. The aroma is not very strong, but the taste has depth, making it a good sake for a meal. The price of 2,200 yen (tax not included) is very reasonable.

ラグビーおやじ
First encounter with a Hokkaido sake brewed with Kitashizuku and Nanatsuboshi, 55% polished rice ginjo-shu specs. The aroma is already banana-like, with a juicy flavor. I have never had this type of sake before. I felt that Sanzen Sakura, which moved its brewery from Gifu to Hokkaido, might be quite promising.

ラグビーおやじ
It has been a while since I have tried Dewazakura. It is canned and reasonably priced. Although it is a Daiginjo with 50% polished rice, neither the standing aroma nor the hint of aroma is very good. Perhaps it is because it is al-soaked, but it does not have much umami (flavor). The image of Dewa Sakura has changed a little.
