R04BY 2022 CRAFT series Rice and Hops 02 I picked this up out of curiosity because it was clearly different from the others. Hops are listed as an ingredient. The rice polishing ratio is 90%. The aroma is like beer. When poured into a sake cup, it has a cloudy light purple color. What is this? The taste is also difficult to understand. It has a fresh and fruity sweetness like nigori sake and the deliciousness of rice as its base, while the bitterness of hops tightens the whole flavor and brings it all together sharply. Despite all this, the overall cohesiveness is beautiful, with a high degree of perfection that allows the taste to flow as a single continuous stream without being scattered around. The hops do not make it a beer, but it is not confined to the framework of sake either. It is a taste that expands the world.

Junmai Daiginjo Tankoba-kumi-Unfiltered I was familiar with this brand, but I picked it up because I saw it in a guise I don't often see. It has the usual Otter taste with a slight effervescence, as is typical of nama-zake. The taste is youthful and fresh, reminiscent of fruit. The bright sweetness and full flavor spread like a burst of flavor, and then seep into the mouth with a gentle aftertaste. It is a quintessential Ottersake. It is a great sake.

Miyakanbai Junmai Daiginjo There are some sakes in the world that you can finish four gou of in one night, and this Miyakanbai is one of them. It is my favorite brand of sake from my hometown in Miyagi Prefecture, and it is always delicious. It always tastes good. It tastes like it makes your soul happy. Once you put it in your mouth, its fresh sweetness and gorgeous flavor bloom. The aftertaste, which is neither strong nor cloying, is as satisfying as after eating an elegant Japanese confectionary. It is a taste that leaves one speechless, and is also a taste that leaves nothing to be said. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Special Junmai A-Un This sake is a collaboration with Abe-kan, a brewery also located in Shiogama, Miyagi Prefecture. The phoenix flapping its wings on the label was created by an artist with ties to Miyagi Prefecture. It is very cool. It is very good. The pleasant aroma spreads softly. The taste is very well-balanced and non-habitual, and it sways as if it were nestled close to you. The taste is well-balanced and non-habit-forming, and yet it has a very high degree of perfection, with a single core of umami that does not allow it to be called watery. This is quintessential Urakasumi.

Special Junmai A A is not the A of Abe-kan...but the A of A-Un. It is a collaboration sake with Urakasumi, and Urakasumi is in charge of the A-Un side, and it seems to be becoming an annual collaboration. More flirting Abe-kan and Urakasumi. The brave dragon adorning the label is the work of an artist with ties to Miyagi Prefecture. It was a no-brainer to buy a packet. The taste is more sharp than usual. It has a clean mouthfeel, a refreshing aroma, and a smooth texture, while keeping the spread of umami to a certain extent in check. The aftertaste has that Abe-kan feeling. While retaining its umami, it disappears gracefully and can be drunk indefinitely. This is a sake born in a port town and should definitely be paired with seafood.

Junmai Ginjo Betsujikomi Cat label series, October is Jack-o'-lantern cat. It is easy to drink as usual with its usual refreshing sweetness. The aftertaste is like a shooting star or fireworks. It is comfortable to drink forever while basking in the autumn temperatures. You can't go wrong with a cat label. Thanks to all the cats in the world.

Junmai Ginjo Maneki The label has two layers, the first of which is a patchwork beckoning cat on a red background. The first label is a patchwork beckoning cat on a red background, which is said to be the work of a painter from Miyagi Prefecture. When you roll up the beckoning cat, the second label appears below it, but you will have to wait until you get it to see what it depicts. The taste is dense. If you are not careful, you will keep tasting this sake and water alternately. This sake is a frightening sake that pretends to be a cute cat.

Miyakanume. It is a sake that is so familiar to the body that it is the number one liquid I would like to have intravenously injected instead of saline solution if I could not get it. Among Miyagi sake, it has the best balance of sweetness and umami. It has a refreshing umami at its core, the kind you get when you take a bite of raw rice, and at the same time, it has a pleasant, gently swaying umami that drowns out the greenish smell, inviting me to a paradise. I guess it is also very nice to see the plum blossoms after the Mid-Autumn Moon has passed.

Junmai Ginjo Summer Sake with Goldfish Label At first glance, the label is pure white with only the name of the sake. However, if you turn the bottle around and look through the back, you will see a school of goldfish swimming in the sake. What a stylish presentation. I came across this sake when I was just starting out in the world of sake, and that was the end of my luck. Every summer, I buy a bottle to relive the excitement I felt when I looked at the label from the back. The taste is also nothing to write home about, of course. It is sharp and slightly dry. The taste is cool and refreshing, just like a goldfish swaying in the cool air. It tastes as if the image of summer sake has been extracted directly from the bottle, and with each sip, memories of summer seem to flow directly from the taste buds into the brain. As usual, the brewery produces sake that is old-fashioned and honest rather than so-called modern, yet not outdated.

Junmai Daiginjo Sanmai Hashi Read as "sanmai hashi". It is said to be a sake brewed by combining three different types of rice to produce eight different tastes. It is a delicious sake made by Miyakanbai, one of my favorite sake brewers in Miyagi Prefecture. It has a very elegant taste, which is due to the fact that it has been polished. It has a solid sweetness in its base, which keeps the overall flavor from being diffused. Naturally, the sweetness is not overpowering and does not detract from the elegance of Junmai Daiginjo, but the taste is deep and fragrant, and the aftertaste is full of the umami of the rice. The complexity and strangeness of the flavor is truly a masterpiece, just as the name "eight delicious flavors" suggests. Oh, our Miyakanbai. Praise be to Miyakanme.

Junmai Ginjo Betsujikomi Everyone who loves cats and sake is a good person! The Hagi no Tsuru cat label series is a no-brainer purchase, whether it's the jacket or the brand name. All of you instagrammers are welcome to try them. It is often sweet, but this time it is less sweet and slightly more sour. It is not as fragrant and has a mild aftertaste. However, if you taste it carefully, you will realize that it is like a precise glasswork, and that all the tastes are combined in a perfect balance without excesses or deficiencies to create this flavor. The charm of this sake, which is not flashy but can be enjoyed for as long as you like, may be similar to the sound of a wind chime, which is pleasantly yet surely echoing in the cool breeze.

SEASON II episode II Haginotsuru style This is a project in which seven breweries in Miyagi Prefecture collaborate once a year to brew sake. The leader brewery changes every year, and this year's production, the ninth year of the project, has a total of two bottles, with Yamawa Shuzo and Hagino Shuzo each serving as leader. This is Hagino Shuzo's version. The Yamawa Shuzo version was very tasty, but I usually drink Haginotsuru more than the Yamawa version. Therefore, we had higher expectations for this one. The taste was so good that it could not be better than this. Based on the usual Hagi no Tsuru, the flavor is extended in all directions, and yet the overall balance is perfect. It has a sweet and gorgeous aroma and mouthfeel. The body is full of freshness and richness. The outer frame has a hint of acidity and a pleasant umami aftertaste that spreads gently. The taste, which shifts from beginning to end with sweetness at its core, without becoming boring or clingy, scores 500 billion points out of a perfect score of 100. I could not help but smile at the taste, which was right in the middle of my tastes, not to mention the perfection of the sake itself. Can such a delicious liquid really exist? Is it not a dream? I am just grateful for the encounter.

SEASONⅡ episodeⅡ YAMAWA style This is a project in which seven breweries in Miyagi Prefecture collaborate once a year to brew sake. The leader brewery changes every year, and this year's project, the ninth year of the project, has a total of two breweries, each led by the Yamawa Shuzo and Hagino Shuzo breweries. This is Yamawa Shuzo's version. Every year a very high level of sake is brewed, and since seven of our favorite breweries are gathered here, we already know that it is delicious, and the question is how delicious it is. The taste of this sake is so perfect that it easily surpasses such high expectations. It has a slightly refreshing aroma and a soft taste. While the mouthfeel is sharp, it is not what is called a sharp taste, but rather a flavor that is very important. It is followed by a refreshing bitterness and acidity reminiscent of citrus peel, and leaves a gentle aftertaste of umami with a hint of sweetness. While based on the usual Yamawa flavor, the taste has been extended in the direction of the gorgeous and rich umami that I like. It is a versatile sake that can be enjoyed with food or just with sake and water. I am deeply humbled by the efforts of the sake brewers in my hometown of Miyagi, and I am proud to be a member of my hometown, and I am happy to drink this sake again tonight.

Special Junmai Sake Matsubara-source This sake is made by the Kinai Shuzo brewery in Kurihara City, Miyagi Prefecture, and is brewed using hot spring water from Naruko Onsen, one of the three most famous hot springs in Oshu, also in Miyagi Prefecture. It has a mild sweetness and a slightly sour aftertaste. It is not flashy, but has a noble taste. The most notable feature of this sake is its smoothness. I am not sure if it is the effect of onsen water brewing, but it is different from ordinary water and has a soft and smooth texture that is enjoyable to the palate. This is a sake that you can savor at a leisurely pace, letting yourself feel as comfortable as if you were soaking in a hot spring. It is good.

Junmai Daiginjo Extra Fine Sake that soaks into your soul Miyakanbai First of all, it has a very smooth texture. And it has a strong flavor. To be more precise, it has a dense flavor. From the moment you take a sip to the moment you swallow it, it demands that you face the sake without pausing for breath. The taste buds are appealed by the translucent sweetness. The ginjo aroma that passes through the nose. The flavor is neither too strong nor too light, and leaves you immersed in a pleasant aftertaste. The harmony of these flavors is even beautiful. The trouble is that every moment of this flavor is so delicious that you can't stop tipping your sake cup, and the sake cup becomes empty. The sake is so delicious that you can't stop drinking and the sake cup becomes empty. I must not buy it even if I see it, and I must not drink it. I will collect such dangerous goods, so please send them back to me.

Junmai Daiginjo Ginsei 40 Suminoe is a junmai daiginjo made with Gin-no-Iroha, a sake rice recently developed by Miyagi Prefecture. I won't bore you with the details, but Miyagi sake tastes very good when made with this rice. It is a beautiful harmony of the florality of Junmai Daiginjo and the full flavor of Gin-no-Iroha. In a word, this is all there is to it, but I wonder how many other sakes in the world can immerse you in such a deep flavor while maintaining such a noble taste. Thank you for the happiness of encountering this sake.

Junmai Ginjo Hitonatsu no Koi This is a sake that appears every year at this time of the year, but every time I see it, I buy it and end up emptying a quart in a day, which is very annoying. It doesn't bother me. I wish they would sell it all year round. Maybe this feeling is love. The usual Hakurakusei direction is maintained, but it is slightly more gorgeous and has a fresh taste like a summer sake. A hint of sweet and sourness peeks out from the back of the bottle, which is the taste of love. The stylish label makes this sake suitable for both personal use and as a gift, and it can be enjoyed by one or two people. We hope you will try it when you see it.

Quarteto This sake is made by the Kanmei Brewery in Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, the same city as Miyakanme. The first sip gives the impression of being watery. However, if you take the time to taste it, you will find that it has a complex and complex flavor with a sweetness on the outside. The sake is not flashy, so you will find your cup empty before you know it, and you will realize that it is a very dangerous sake. It may not look spectacular, but it is there. As the name suggests, it is a sake like the voice of a Japanese bush warbler echoing in the fresh green.
