bragging about one's success at the end of a long road Fresh grapefruit-like aroma and bitterness. Slightly effervescent and tangy. Aroma of rice and smoky aroma in the depths. Dry and easy to drink. Purchased at a liquor store in Oami, Chiba. I went to a sake brewery in Kujukuri during GW, but they were sold out of Matsuo Boast. As one would expect. I was able to find a liquor store that "sells it if it's still available" and bought it without incident.

Slightly sweet if you say it with the sense of tongue. Like water. (Usui) The third SAKE country tourism achievement giveaway. I bought Chiba's sake bypassing it even though I still have some left, so the pressure in the fridge is tremendous.

Shiga Izumi Sake Brewery Delicious good. Apple aroma. Sweet and delicious with fruity and juicy acidity. Slightly effervescent and lively. Slight bitterness. It's refreshing and crisp. Umeyuee. I like it. Purchased at Zenkojiya Sake Brewery, a liquor store in Nakano City. It is located between Marusei Sake Brewery and Igaya Sake Brewery. If you are not driving, you can taste it. I bought it for myself while I went to buy the hottest souvenir of Nagano Prefecture, "Tsuki no Usagi no Unko" (a rabbit of the moon). Next time, I would like to buy Shigaizumi as a souvenir.

ume (plum) unripe plum blossoms boiled in soy sauce with mirin Delicious. Sweet aroma of grape type + yogurt. Numb but soft on the tongue. The flavor is strong, yet not cloying. Purchased at Mikiya, a direct sales store near Umeichirin Sake Brewery. They sell Ume-Ichirin sake, sake cups, and other goods, but they also sell boxed lunches and other items, just like a convenience store. I bought this one, which had a pop-up sign saying it was the most popular. I found out about this place at a bar in Matsumoto the other day, and since it is a sake brewery in Kujukuri, I went there since it was the GW season and Kangiku was close by. The back of Cheeba-kun's head. Umeichirin Sake Brewery is doing quite well for a local sake and is expanding nationwide. I heard from another nearby sake brewery (Moriya Sake Brewery) that they are expanding their business nationwide.

cold war Little aroma. Full-bodied. A little bit of umami. It is very mild but tasty. It is also delicious when served with dashi broth. We are currently exploring izakaya in front of Matsumoto station. However, the cost is very expensive, so we are trying to keep it moderate. It is a very small restaurant located along the Otowa River. It is full of regular customers, but it is a very nice restaurant that creates a comfortable atmosphere even for first-time customers. I was surprised at the leek balls. They have a wide selection of sakes that you don't see in the Matsumoto area, which is very appealing. The sake offered in the set of three different kinds of sake was Izumo Fuji, Izumo Izumi, and Gokeijo. I don't know all of them.

The toji explained this to us when he opened the brewery in the past. SAKE Country Tourism Achievement Prizes. The third prize is from the Takeju Sake Brewery in Saku. It is one of my personal favorite sake breweries. The second batch of sake still remains, so the pressure in the refrigerator was tremendous. The following will be posted separately.

Catskill Little aroma, slight solvent aroma. Slightly piquant. Dry in the mouth. Overall, it is clean and refreshing. It could use a little more flavor, but that's okay. Obtained through crowdfunding. This is an American SAKE that came to Japan through a partnership with Hakkaisan. It does not taste strange at all, and is as good as Japanese Sake. If this is the case, is there any reason other than the rarity of choosing an American SAKE to drink in Japan? Price-wise.

Kurihara (Kyoto and Osaka) A faint, subtle candy aroma. Clean and light. Mmmm... Shinshu Kiso-cho Spring Brewery Opening on 4/19. KURIHARA is named after the founder, Mr. Kurihara. Tasting sake while listening to the toji, who is like a comical storyteller, talk about his experiences is a special experience. The lovely label was painted by the toji's wife.

Rhizopogon rubescens (species of edible mushroom) Aroma is quite fragrant, as is typical of old sake. I like it. Woody aroma and flavor. Numbness on the tongue. The astringency and acidity left on the palate makes it even better with snacks. It's a great taste for a great price. Amazing. It was a new experience for me. Purchased at a sake brewery in January. Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. It has a cafe and a store and was crowded with regular customers. Shiga Prefecture's famous popping-out boy is a ninja in Koka City.

biwacho Yellow. A fresh aroma like some kind of gum passes through the nose, and there is also the aroma of rice. The taste is delicious. It is light and refreshing. When you drink it, your tongue feels a bit irritated. A little astringency. It's delicious. The cherry blossoms on the bottle are lovely. It was purchased at a sake brewery in January. Takashima City, on the west side of Lake Biwa, is a fishing port or an area where fishmongers are flourishing. I thought it would be too early to see cherry blossoms, but it turned out to be a good time.

common squid (Todarodes pacificus) It has a citrusy aroma. Soft mouthfeel, acidity, and a hint of sweetness. Fruity, but with a strong aroma of rice in the depths. It is good. It is delicious. Quite to my liking. We bought it at a liquor store in Niigata City. I went to the Niigata Sake-no-Taien (Sake Festival). While enjoying a bottle of Hi-iri Ichijozo Junmai at the Koshi Meijo booth, I asked about the special feature of this sake, which is that it is named "domaine ikazuchi" and is made from local rice. Nagaoka? I was surprised to hear that it is made with local rice. I have no good photos because they are blurry, so I'll add photos of the trip to and from Toki Messe. Note that typing in "Sake no Wani Ichibrew" will associate it with a liquor store.

modern-style room Sweet aroma. Like candy. Very slight effervescence. Aroma of rice. Sourness and umami come in jabba-jabba. It's so good, it's so good. Purchased at a sake shop. The Imanishiki Tadpole Series is a limited edition sake made only from rice grown in the terraced rice fields near the brewery (worth a visit). Each season, the sake is released with different levels of maturity and with hind legs and front legs. This sake was purchased last month and is about to grow legs.

three famous ancient calligraphers: Emperor Saga and Tachibana (no) Nama sake is slightly effervescent. The aroma is fruity or floral. It has a sweetness. Surprisingly dry and dry. It has a light impression with a slight bitterness and numbness at the end. Slightly effervescent when heated. The aroma of rice and softness is relatively dry and light. I think I like this one better because it has more umami. Obtained through crowdfunding. This is a new brand from Misuzu Shuzo. It's a new low alcohol challenge for the sake brewery, and since it's from Matsumotohira, we have no choice but to support it.

Purchased at the Niigata Sake-no-jin (Sake Festival) on March 8 and 9. 4 sessions in the morning and afternoon. Attracted by the "secret sake" on the flyer handed out in the opening line, I went straight there right after the entrance, but it was already sold out at the session I attended. Oh no.

Shimehatsu Tatsura! Seasonal Nama sake. Sweet aroma. Slightly effervescent. Soft sweetness. Slight bitterness at the end. It is elegant and coherent. So this is Yamada-Nishiki... Purchased at a sake brewery. I was at the Niigata Sake Festival. The booth of "Shimehari Tsuru" was very popular. While waiting in line, I heard from the brewery that they were selling directly to the public, so I went to Murakami the next day. The next day, I went to Murakami in a residential area a little far from the city center. We were given a short tour of the magnificent 200-year-old building. The exhibition space was converted from a room where labels used to be pasted. Currently, rice milling and bottling are done at another factory across the river. As a side note, a very polite lady gave us a very good impression of the Miyao Brewery.
