2022年元旦から家呑みを記録しています✏️ 外呑みも記録したいけど色々忘れるので😅 最近は事情により開栓数は減っているし、コメントも得意じゃないですが、皆さんの記録で発見があったり楽しんでいます😆 地元茨城のお酒を応援しているので、まだ飲んだことない方が興味を持ってくれるきっかけにもなれば嬉しいです🙋

Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 14%. Date of production: August 2025 The gas is released with a bushy puff at the opening and it is thin and cloudy when poured into a vessel. The freshness with a piquant gasiness and sweet and sour fruity taste makes it very easy to drink 👌. Okay, I thought "this tastes 💡" but when I bought it, I forgot that it's been a year since it was rebranded from [Brewing Forest] 😅I liked the cute label of Brewing Forest, but this simple label is also nice ✨.

100% Kame-no-o Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15 Production date: October 2025 It has a nice aroma when the bottle is opened, even if it is chilled. The color is clear and gaseous. It has a fruity taste with sweetness and sourness. I wondered what kind of fruit this tasted like. I drank it while thinking about it, but it was empty without any inspiration😅. I heard that if you make rice balls with turtle tail, it is light but the grains are firm and the taste doesn't fade even if it gets cold 💡I want to try it😆.

100% Miyamanishiki Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15 Date of production: August 2005 The aroma is subdued, and the taste is sweet and umami with a little sourness. The aroma is moderate, with a little sourness, sweetness, and umami, and it passes through the nose softly. Morishima's hi-iri series has a gaseous taste, though not as gaseous as the raw sake.... o○. I've gotten used to seeing the high-end hi-iri cap design ✨.

Rice polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content: 17 Polishing ratio September 2025 The cap was plain silver, so it was not photographed. Refreshing aroma and fruity acidity. I had had it at a restaurant but honestly couldn't remember what it tasted like, and this time I was able to sample it at the liquor store but I was driving and couldn't drink it... I brought it home and was satisfied with the taste 😆. I've been drinking more sake now that the temperature has calmed down a lot 😅.

Rice polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15%. Production date: August 2025 Even when the bottle is opened right after taking it out of the refrigerator, it has a soft aroma. It has not only matured flavor but also freshness. It is one of my favorite bottles that I can't help but buy every year when I find it at the store. I couldn't stop drinking it with the mackerel that we had a good catch of this year 😆.

Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol content 15 Production date: May 2025 The impact of the Kumatori and the words "very dry" might make you think it is hard to get your hands on it, but it is indeed easy to drink with its acidic and crisp taste and the sweetness behind it. It has been a while since I had a chance to drink it, and it was a little after the production date, but it was delicious 👌.

100% Hitanishiki Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15 Production date: July 2025 At first, it has a strong acidity, but as it is paired with food, the acidity becomes less of an issue and the sake becomes more refreshing 👌. The rice shortage is no exception for sake rice, and it seems that the availability of "Hitanishiki" sake rice in Ibaraki Prefecture is very difficult this year 😵Ibaraki's sake "Pure Ibaraki" is in big trouble: ‼️

Rice polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 Production date: June 2025 This sake has a mild aroma and a clear appearance and taste. It is gradually becoming more and more common to see it placed in restaurants in Ibaraki Prefecture where sake refrigerators can be seen👍. Morishima's label is almost all the way around the top and bottom of the bottle, so I always wonder how best to photograph the bottle😅.

Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content: 17 to 18 degrees Celsius Production date: March 2025 The aroma of koji malt is soft. It is clear and crisp with both dryness and umami. This sake is a brand I learned when I was still drinking sake only when it was recommended to me 💡 It had a white label, but this one has a very beautiful blue bottle. It was a gift from a friend, and although it was quite old, it was so delicious that we both finished it 😆.

Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 13%. Date of production: June 2025 The bottle was opened carefully because of the warning 💧It has been refrigerated since we bought it, so nothing happened and it was quiet 😅When we poured it into a cup, it was carbonated and bubbly ✨The light nigori, slightly lower alcohol content, sake brewed in the traditional way, was refreshingly sweet and sour 😋. The light nigorigo and slightly low alcohol content of the sake makes it easy to enjoy and sip. The bicycle label has become a Takeyuki staple 🚲 I drank a lot of it, shook the bottle lightly, and poured it.

100% Yamada-Nishiki used Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 15 Date of production: May 2005 The aroma is subdued. It has a spicy gasiness and acidity on the palate. It is a fire-brewed sake, but it is recommended to be refrigerated and placed vertically. When you drink it, the aroma comes through strongly from the nose💨. It would be good to cool it down and drink it outdoors in the hot summer. Oh, I heard they changed the design of the lid since Hi-ire: ☺️

100% Hitanishiki produced in Ibaraki Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 16%. Production date: April 2025 When poured into a vessel, it has a sweet aroma. It has a gaseous and juicy flavor, just like the label on the back. I know it's delicious, but I haven't had it for a while," I said to my husband as we took a sip and we both groaned at the same time 😆.

Hello, Chizu! It's a good time for you and your wife to have a drink together ✨ I haven't had a sip of the Gokei but I'd like to take a sip and groan 😍. Looks delicious 🤤.

Thank you, ma-ki- ✨ It's a sake that would make a great gift because of its congratulatory name 😉 If you get a chance, please give it a try 🙋.

100% Miyamanishiki Polishing ratio 65 Alcohol content 15%. When I opened the bottle, there were a few bubbles in the bottle, a gaseous taste with a thick Junmai sake-like flavor, and a freshness like green apple (my husband said it was melon... but everyone has their own taste buds 😅). We had a late breakfast today, so we skipped lunch and came home from the fish shop with some sashimi and started drinking sake right away... from 3pm😁The weather was cloudy and the humidity gauge in the room was at 76%, but it felt good to be doing something that felt like a holiday 😆.

100% Omachi Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 Production date: April 2025 When the bottle is opened, the gas is released and the aroma is clear and mild. The first sip is full of gaseous, sweet and sour freshness that is typical of sake 👌After that, there is a slight bitterness in the sweetness, so you can drink more and more without getting tired of it while eating 👌. Special limited edition sake with No. 14 yeast. Last year we compared 3 bottles of regular Omachi and Hi-iri, but this year we are getting less sake so we opened the bottle without waiting for the Hi-iri 😅.

The label on the back of the bottle says, "Please drink as soon as possible because of its dry taste. I drank a lot of it, though I wasn't conscious of it 😋.

A fruity sake with a gaseous taste and a firm flavor. The beautifully colored label is a limited edition spring sake 😆 perfect for this season when the cherry blossoms have fallen and the leaves have appeared. We enjoyed it very much this year too 😋.

100% Comet Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 Production date: February 2025 When the bottle is opened, it has a soft and gorgeous aroma. When you sip it, it is full of gas and sweeter than other Morishima... As you drink it, the acidity also becomes stronger. I am happy to drink comet again this year 😆. I hear that more and more farmers are stopping producing rice for sake and producing rice for food these days, which is going to affect sake brewing 😓.

Polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 55 Alcohol content 15 Manufacture date August 2024 I love this sake, but I haven't had it for a while, right? I bought it with the intention of drinking it, but it had been carefully stored in the back of the fridge for a long time 😅 so I was prepared for it to be a bit squeaky clean when I opened the bottle, but it was perfectly fine👌. I read the back of the bottle as a letter from the brewer 😆.

100% Omachi Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 Production date: December 2024 The aroma is subdued. I thought it was clear, but when I filled it up in a snake eyes boar cup, it turned out to be a bit dark ‼️ (clear after drinking half of it). I love Shiboritate 😆 It has a gaseous taste and the strength of Omachi comes through the nose in a clear flavor with a standard balance of sourness and sweetness 💨. Actually, I checked in late, so I compared it with Miyamanishiki, which I'll post later, and rewrote a lot of my impressions from the draft 😅.
