2023年元旦からさけのわ再スタート。 長年の転勤生活で行った先のウイスキー、ワイン、そして何より日本酒にハマり、今に至る。 家飲みやカウンター居酒屋が中心ですが、ウィズコロナで気を付けながら、蔵開きや酒蔵ツーリズム、角打ち、呑み鉄、銭湯＆湯上がり呑みなど、外で交流しながら日本酒を楽しみたい。

A famous liquor store in the neighborhood and TNU held a blind tasting and this sake came in first place. A clean ginjo aroma from the moment it is opened. Well-balanced sweetness and acidity. Even my daughter, who is not much of a drinker, was impressed.

My favorite brewery since I lived in Fukui about 20 years ago. This is a refined version in the current style. It was a little sweet but refreshing Junmai Daiginjo.

He tasted sake from the same brewery at a tasting and was so impressed that he purchased it at a liquor store on his trip. This brewery is not seen in Tokyo, but the cleanliness is wonderful and I want to remember it.

Purchased at a local liquor store with the intention of supporting Ishikawa Prefecture. I am also going to Kanazawa at the end of this month. It is a Daigin from a quintessentially popular brewery. Great balance with a little fizziness. Not too sweet, not too spicy. The umami is also strong but not too strong. Even my wife, who is not a drinker, gave her opinion.

I bought it at a local liquor store because it was recommended by the clerk. I had never had much Aizan sake, but it is quite gorgeous and punchy. The sweetness of the aroma lured me in, but the aftertaste was firm. It is a drinker's curse.

Encountered for the first time on the second floor of a public bathhouse in Ota-ku, Tokyo. A very well-balanced Daigin. It is full of flavor, but not too sweet, and has a sharp taste. It is very good.

A limited edition sake made only 360 bottles. The idea is that it is a by-product of the rice paddies. This is true local production for local consumption. Even if you are not an omatologist, you will love the contradictory taste of richness plus freshness due to sweet and sourness.

I wanted to buy sake from a brewery that was affected by the Noto earthquake, so I went online and found sake from Nakanoto. They say it is a true handmade sake. It is a slightly sweet but refreshing sake with not too strong aroma, good enough for eating.

At a famous corner bar in Yotsuya. There is no such a high level cup of sake. The balance of ginjo aroma, sweetness, and acidity is excellent.

Purchased with the intention of supporting earthquake reconstruction. The sake from Okunoto was sold out, so I went with Nakanoto. It is a mellow, sweet and graceful sake typical of Ishikawa Prefecture. This kind of sake is suitable for winter even if it is served crisp and cold. Praying for the reconstruction of the area, we will enjoy it.

A single bottle (!) at a long-established ryokan in Gero. The bottle is a single-bottle (!). It is a slightly mellow, but basically dry and refreshing sake for a meal. I drank it after a full meal, so it may have been half as good as it could have been...

We had a drink comparison at the standing bar on the second floor of the liquor store. Junmai Daiginjo, once-hired Junmai Ginjo, once-hiked Uraroman Junmai Ginjo, once-hiked Three of the following Fukushima's sake is never out of place, but this sake, including the melon aroma, was of a very high level and seemed to be popular with everyone. Especially the Ura was excellent.

One of a set of 8 bottles of Nada no Nama Ippon. I got it with my hometown tax payment in honor of my alma mater. Kenrishi was playing with aged sake, and while it was mellow, it was very well balanced with little of the characteristic tugging that is often found in aged sake.

At a restaurant associated with Akita located on a former railroad bed near Shimokitazawa. Recommended by a regular customer. As is typical of Akita sake, it was clean and refreshing, with a hint of melon, and quite good.

One of the major Hakutsuru's young projects. Although the sake is produced by a brewery with which we are familiar, we feel that the brand has been damaged by the image of mass production, but we would like to support this kind of interesting project. The alcohol content is low, in the low 12s, but it is a slightly sticky, sweet sake that is fine as an after-dinner drink, but it is also a blend of a little acidity and just the right amount of richness that gave me hope for a new world to explore.

Sake made from Akita Prefecture's sake rice, Koudou-Shinko. An elegant attack from the light ginjo aroma. The acidity and sweetness are well-balanced, though modest, and the finish is considered to be to everyone's liking. It can be served with or without food.

At a long-established yakitori restaurant in front of Komae station. It is dry and goes well with the sweet tuna stew. It has a pleasant sourness and leaves no aftertaste, which gives the impression that it was chosen by a long-established restaurant.

I had no idea that Kumagusu Minakata was the son of a sake brewer, and I wonder if it is some kind of fate that we met at this kind of lunchtime drinking place. It is a very unique sake, extremely hot and 20% alcohol by volume, but it is a beautiful sake that makes you feel no alcohol content.
