I found a brand that was recommended on a liquor store type YouTube that I often watch, so I bought it. It has a fruity, muscat-like flavor, with just the right amount of sweetness. I felt a light bitterness at the end. It is easy to drink.

This is my favorite Kangiku, light nigori. After the sweetness and umami that is typical of Kangiku, the bitterness came through. The bitterness at the end made me feel refreshed.

I bought Aizan, a cold chrysanthemum, immediately. I think all Kangiku is delicious, but this one is the best I have ever tasted. It is naturally fruity and sweet, but it also has a strong umami taste. It is truly sweet and umami. This has become a brand that I cannot miss every year.

This is the second bottle I prepared for the year-end and New Year's holidays, the Hanayu Shigou bottle. If there is a Yongo bottle, I will definitely buy it. This is the first time I have tasted Yamada-Nishiki, and I think the expression "mellow" is exactly right. It is delicious with a strong umami and sweetness. However, the taste is not cloying. This is a jackpot.

Last week I was in Shizuoka and found a bottle of Hatsukame at a liquor store I frequent. I ended up buying a W in Shizuoka, which I don't see in Tokyo, but I didn't think I would, so I bought the first Kame. I can feel the alcohol. It is a refreshing food sake.

This sake was also given to us by a traveler to Aomori. He said that he had found a limited edition of this sake when he went to Hachinohe Sake Brewery. It has a light effervescence and a fruity sweetness at first, but it has a bitter taste at the end. This is my favorite type of sake.
