2023年春頃から上司(自称日本酒マイスター)の影響で日本酒が好きになりました。色々飲み慣れましたが、基本は変わらず果実系でアルコール感のあまりしないタイプが好き。特定の味は相変わらず苦手みたいです。引き続き全国制覇目指します。 北海道在住。近い酒蔵は碧雲蔵まで車で20分。ちなみに上司の推し店は神奈川にある日本酒原価酒蔵さん。私も出張先でついて行きましたが素晴らしい。あの店北海道に欲しいですね。

I had Matsu no Tsukasa hot sake. It was easy to drink, with the spiciness softened by the assumption that the Matsu no Tsukasa is supposed to be spicy. It had a slightly fermented aroma like natto (fermented soybeans), but it was not bad.

I thought Ganki might be spicy because of its name, but it was not so spicy and was fresh and easy to drink on the first sip. It is a pineapple type of fruity sake. The acidity is also a bit strong.

It is a hana-yosu. The sake rice is different from the one we drank before, so we are looking forward to it. The aroma is strong and smells good even in a cup. I felt the alcohol taste was a little strong. It is an easy-drinking green apple type of sake, but I thought the Hachitan-nishiki was a little spicy.

Yokoyama Goju was the one for me. First of all, the sweetness stands out, with a slight fluffy feeling of baked sweets and a moderate aftertaste. Well, I can't say for sure, since I have been drinking a lot so far, I am getting used to the spiciness and the tangy taste, but I think it is quite easy to drink.

This is Yuho from Ishikawa Prefecture. Ishikawa Prefecture is worried about many things due to natural disasters. I drink it while imagining how precious it is, but it is the type where the pungent taste comes first. The sweetness comes quickly, so I thought it was easy to drink, but it has a strong alcohol taste. I wonder if the alcohol content is too high.

Wakanami. Compared to the other two bottles I drank earlier, the first one hit me first. The sweetness of the Omachi rice stands out and the sweetness of the rice, rather than the fruitiness, makes it easy to drink. The spiciness is normal and comes first.

At the sake meeting, there was no time to check in, so I followed along with my notes. Hakuin Masamune started out fresh and went down smoothly, but the spiciness was strong. The spiciness was a bit different from other sake, and I felt it was a characteristic sake. The sweetness is moderate.

A sake party is being held at the local Tokachikan. We toasted with Imi. It is fresh and easy to drink. The slight effervescence that lingers afterwards is irresistible.

When I went to a liquor store to purchase tickets for an upcoming sake meeting in my hometown, I was surprised to find a bottle of Shinmasa Cosmos on the shelf. Cosmos was the pioneer of getting into Shinsei. It was also reasonably priced. With so little on hand (now's your chance, right?), I bought it immediately. We drank a glass of the wine at home with delight. The fruity, wine-like taste of the sake comes in like water, with a nice accent of the impurities of junmai sake, followed by the sweetness, and the sweetness of the No. 6 yeast is irresistible. As I taste it, the inside of the cup goes faster than the rest of the sake. Before you know it, half of the four-pack is gone. This is the cosmos of Shinmasa. I can't stop, I can't stop. I think it should be my personal No. 1 or No. 2. It is delicious. If you have a chance, please give it a try.

I came across it while I was at the liquor store to check out the items and bought it immediately. I got lucky with the last bottle at this store. It is a different sake rice from Toyo Bijin, this time Hakutsuru Nishiki. This is a limited edition sake made from Hakutsuru brewery's sake rice. I tried it right away and found it to be sweeter than the other Toyo Bijin. It is not a fruity sweetness, but more like the taste of the ingredients, like cotton candy or mizuame. It is still easy to drink and tastes great with almost no pungency, but it is still sweet. It is a top candidate among the ones I have had so far.

Good news Simosa, hello. Toyo Bijin is delicious, isn't it? ⤴️ I had a variety of them this year, but Hakutsuru-nishiki is the one I felt had the most sweetness ✨. I want to drink it again 😊.

We went to an izakaya in town to celebrate the renewal exam. I wondered if they had any sake, but they had Kitanokatsu, which I had never had before. I immediately tried it for the first time. I thought it might be too spicy with a 70% rice polishing ratio, but it was surprisingly easy to drink and tasted good enough for grilled meat. There was also a bottle of Ottersai, so I was happy to compare them. The person from Nemuro said the limited edition sake was even better, so if you have a chance, try it.

Fukushima Prefecture is known for its Sharaku, but Hirotogawa is just as good. When you open the cork, you can smell the sweet aroma. When you drink it right away, you will find that it has a strong umami flavor with almost no impurities. It is easy to drink, but the spiciness is a little bit bothersome, so if you want something a little spicy, it would be good to give it a try.

It caught my eye and I bought it because the label seemed to put a lot of thought into the use of No. 10 yeast. When I drank it, it did indeed have a pineapple taste, but I personally think it was a white wine. It is the type of wine that tastes even better when drunk very cold.

The last sake of the day is Nirugame. This sake has a target rice polishing ratio of 88%. It is as if Shinmasa's technology can make a delicious sake without polishing. When you drink it, you will find it to be a very strong sake. As expected, the sweetness is moderate. It has a spiciness and tastes like a mature carbonated drink. It has a fizzy and refreshing taste. It also retains the Shinsei feeling. It has less carbonation and sweetness than Amaerokeru, so it is more suited for a mealtime sake, but it can also be enjoyed with a glass of sake in the evening. Shinsei is still great.

I finally drank some Niimasa Yonotori. The regular one was enough, but a suspicious package came out from the back. According to the manager, it was a directly pumped Yonotori. The rice polishing ratio is 55%65% instead of 40%60%. The alcohol content is usually 15%, but 13% for the direct pumping. Now, let's compare them. Both are delicious. The Kisoushu is easy to drink. The naoikumi sake has a rich and rich taste, while the regular sake tastes a little lighter and fresher. Both have their good points, but the rarity makes me feel that the directly pumped one is better. Both have the same alcohol taste.

Kurei liked the challenge sake, but I think this dry type is originally popular. The alcohol seems harsh, but the aroma is good. I think it is easy to drink even if it is dry. It is not sweet, but has a sharpness that makes it suitable for a mid-meal drink. The potato salad with which it was paired was even better.

I checked in two together, although they are from different breweries. This was my first time drinking Dateseven, but this time the stars of the show were Katsuyama and Sumisuirie, a pair of Orihime and Hikoboshi label types, so I tried them both. Orihime was easier to drink for me, but both were spicy and sharp, and I felt they were suitable for a mid-meal drink. I think it is a good sake with more umami than sweetness. I think Dateseven makes a different one every time, so I would like to drink next year's if I have a chance.

旭川の隣町東川で生産した彗星を佐賀県の東鶴酒造で製造した小川商店のブランド酒。青木さんと尾上さんが作ったのでこの銘柄。飲んでみるとコチラも甘さ控えめの旨み重視で食中酒向きの味。飲みやすいけど晩酌向きではないかなぁ、しかし居酒屋でこう言うスッキリ系飲んでしまうと飯が進みます。

I went to a local liquor store and found a new rice from Toyo Bijin, so I bought it. I drank it with high expectations, as Hazhu Honor is the same rice used for Jyushiyo. I knew Toyo Bijin would be like this. It has a fresh feel on the palate. From the very first shot, I was filled with joy. After that, the sweetness circulated moderately, and the taste, which at first I thought was fruity, was established with a rice-like flavor. The spiciness and miscellaneous tastes appear when you drink it with different ingredients, and they suppress the sweetness perfectly. It is a good sake. Toyo Bijin is delicious after all. I can't wait to enjoy it with various rice substitutes. I enjoyed it tonight with smoked scallops. Thank you very much.
