I recommend heating up a small bottle of Kuromatsu Kenrishi 180ml 🍶, microwaved and served lukewarm. The shape of the bottle is very unique 😁. It has been in business for over 500 years, making it one of the top 3 sake breweries in Japan 😳. The aroma is classic with a hint of alcohol, and when you taste it, it has a very rich and mellow flavor, with a thick umami and acidity, and a sharp aftertaste that makes it very drinkable!

The brewery has been designated as a "Saijo Sake Brewing School" for training sake brewing technicians, and has produced many toji (master brewers). The brand name is derived from the local name "Fukujin" and the fact that the brewery has been aiming for a "full, gentle, and mild taste like a beautiful woman". It has a calm and gentle aroma, a fruity overtone, and a good umami of rice, with a mellow flavor prevailing in the latter half, followed by spiciness and acidity, leaving a refreshing taste 🍶. Tonight I paired it with Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, and it went surprisingly well 😄.

This sake is brewed with white wine yeast from Chablis in Burgundy, France, rice from Shizuoka Prefecture, and groundwater from the Akaishi Mountains 😁. It has a fresh citrusy nose, a soft winey acidity, a light rice-derived sweetness, a hint of bitterness, and as the temperature rises, the umami flavor increases and you can enjoy the change in taste 😋.

Ono Sake Brewery is located in Kitahiroshima-cho and has been in business for over 300 years. I happened to see a cup of sake and decided to take it home to warm up 😊. Warmed it in the microwave for a minute and served lukewarm 🍶. The aroma is a bit matured with a hint of sweetness at first, but as you drink it, the temperature drops and the spiciness comes out. Overall, it is a soft and classic sake 😄. Tonight we had it with dumplings🥟♪

It is made with 100% Hachitan-Nishiki "Kure Miki Rice" produced in Kure City, and is a very limited edition sake with only a small production and only 3 sake stores in Hiroshima carry it in the whole country😳. The aroma is gentle and smooth, with a fruity overtone, a soft sweetness in the mid-palate, and a light dryness in the finish! I paired it with sukiyaki tonight and it was a perfect match 😋.

Tonight I wanted a dry and refreshing Tosa sake, so I chose this one 🍶. Recommended by Rui Yoshida, a bar poet and izakaya explorer 😆. Almost no aroma, but when you drink it, it has a light, dry flavor and acidity, with a smooth, clean finish! We had it with bonito tataki and negitoro donburi (bowl of rice topped with negitoro) 😋.

It is said to be brewed under the theme of "intensely delicious when drunk hot," and matured at low temperatures over one summer. It is recommended to be drunk hot, but we first tried it cold. Almost no aroma, mellow and dry with a soft sense of maturity. Next, we microwaved it and had it hot. Next, I microwaved it and served it hot. The taste was smooth and round on the tongue, with an increase in umami and acidity. It's still delicious hot!

It is a special pure rice sake made from 100% "Oceto", a representative of Kagawa. Kawatsuru Shuzo is famous for their adult Calpis "Sanuki Kuraudai" 😁. It has a fresh fruity ginjo aroma, a punchy and powerful flavor with a high alcohol content, a youthful juicy taste, and a crisp throat with an assertive acidity that gives it the freshness of a draft sake 😋.

Tonight we had it heated 🍶. It has a rich sweetness and mellow flavor, and could be a little more crisp, but it went well with the darkly seasoned yakitori 😄.

A unique sake dedicated to mackerel, designed for pairing with mackerel dishes 🍶. There were also sake dedicated to salmon and oysters in the store, but this time we selected this one 😁. I had it with Seven's grilled mackerel with grated ponzu sauce, and each flavor blended nicely with the other, and the acidity helped to clean away the smell and fat. It has a clean, dry taste 😋 and is very light to drink!

Hyakumangoku No Shiro" is a sake rice from Ishikawa Prefecture that debuted in 2020🌾. u (You)" means "kind" in Chinese characters. The aroma is mild and thin, like cider, and the taste is clear with a sense of minerality when you drink it. The freshness, soft sweetness and fizziness of unfiltered raw sake, and light bitter acidity are pleasant 😋. The alcohol content is moderate and you can feel the gentleness of the "u" 😄.

Selected for its unfamiliar turquoise green color😄. It is said to be a green-labeled, unpasteurized sake that was revived after a 10-year absence, using 100% Gin no Sei, a sake rice developed by Akita Prefecture 🍶. Fruity, elegant, clear aroma, refined, clean, slightly sweet taste, fresh, fresh and petite, with an accent of acidity that cuts through nicely😍. Tonight we had it with fried horse mackerel 😋.

The sake's name "Sawanoi" is derived from the name of the place "Sawai-mura", which was named after the abundant water flowing as a stream. It has a classic aroma with a sense of alcohol, a crisp mouthfeel, a soft umami, and a tangy spiciness with a nice finish 🍶. It is perfect as a complement to food 😄.

This seasonal product is made by bottling the new Junmai Ginjo sake that flows out of the "dripping mouth" of the sake tank. It has a youthful fresh aroma of new sake, apple-like, fruity and gorgeous when you drink it, a slightly sweet, spicy, mellow and clear taste, and a lingering soft acidity on the back of the palate. It has a long, lingering finish with a soft acidity. The alcohol content is high, but it's easy to drink, so it's dangerous 😆 Very tasty 😋.

A sake with an elegant fruity aroma reminiscent of bananas and melons. The elegant fruity aroma reminds us of banana and melon, and when you drink it, it has the freshness and light sweetness of a pure sake, with a sharp sharp finish with refreshing citrus acidity. Juicy flavor increases when mixed with Ori. The refreshing feeling that accompanies any meal is a quintessential 😊.

It is snowing intermittently outside, and on a weekend like this, drinking at home in a warm room is the best 😁. The brewery is the originator of Kumamoto yeast, and this is a new brand from the Kumamoto Sake Brewing Research Institute "Koroh". I've never seen Koroh itself 😌. It is a delicious modern low-alcohol sake with a subtle fruity aroma on the top, a gassy feeling with the flavor and freshness of rice, and a refreshing fruity sweet and sour taste that cuts through quickly! It's easy to drink, and even on its own, you can't help but drink more 😋.

I thought "Daisen" was named after the famous mountain Daisen in the Chugoku region, but the correct name is "Oyama" and it is a Yamagata sake 😀 The name comes from the "Daisen" district in the castle town of Tsuruoka City. The aroma is almost imperceptible, and the mouthfeel is smooth and soft, with a clear acidity that cuts through, making it a slightly dry classic. It has a well-balanced taste suitable for a mid-meal drink. ☺️
