Chizu
Rice polishing ratio 40 Alcohol content 17 The aroma is sweet and unobtrusive. The sweetness is the first impression, followed by sourness and umami. It was a gift, but it reminds me of when I visited Ise. The afternoon before visiting the Inner Shrine, I had some time to spare, so I went to the brewery to check it out, found it, and drank a lot of sake while listening to the stories of the people there. It was hard to say which was more important, the visit to the shrine or the sake, but it was a lot of fun and I would like to go back again ✈.

Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 16%. Production date: November 2022 It is beautifully clear and colorless, with a fruity aroma. The aroma is fruity and the taste is moderate, but when you take a sip, you can taste the acidity. It is listed as having its own yeast, but it is unknown if it is brewed in the brewery or not😅. As I continue drinking...what? The aroma is much stronger than before! Maybe I chilled it a little too much. I felt like the Snow Kayasha was looking at me in the refrigerator of the liquor store. I bought it thinking that I probably didn't drink it at home last year. It was delicious from mid-meal to after dinner.

100% Yamadanishiki, 40% polished rice Alcohol content 15%. Winner of the top prize in the Junmai-shu category of the 103rd (2022) Nanbu Touji Sake Competition As soon as the bottle is opened, it has a gorgeous aroma. It has a slightly colored, strong and robust flavor. As you continue to drink, the spiciness comes in spurts. Happy New Year, everyone! I have been looking forward to the opening of the first bottle of the new year, having decided to drink this one from the moment I got it, while taking better care of myself than usual. It is a very limited 21 bottles from the same tank that was awarded the top prize by Morishima Shuzo, whose "Morishima" is now the center of attention. It's the most expensive sake I've ever had, but New Year's Day is special✨. Let's have some good sake this year!

100% Watafune (short-stalked) produced in Ibaraki Prefecture Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. When the bottle is opened, there is a pus-pus-pus-pus sound typical of nama-zake and a gorgeous aroma that is typical of ginjo-zake. The first sip has the fresh, juicy, thick flavor you would expect. The taste is sweet, but as you continue drinking, you can feel the spiciness. A satisfying bottle to end the year with. This year I started "Sake-no-wa" on New Year's Day. I really enjoyed drinking sake while reading back my own records and learning about sake that I have not encountered in your records. I hope you all have a happy New Year. See you all next year!

Chizu
Polishing ratio 69% (super flat polished rice) Alcohol content 15%. It has a barrel aroma and flavor that seems a bit sour. We buy it every year because it is delicious and we are happy that the sake brewer puts a mouthful of it from the barrel into the sake bottle. I wanted to enjoy the original aroma of the sake but I also wanted to know the original aroma of the sake. I don't often use this sake container for other sake because the aroma is too strong, but it was very relaxing.

100% Yamagata rice, Dewa Tsanzan (new rice) Polishing ratio 45 Alcohol content 16%. Sake degree -5, Acidity 1.5 Yeast: Yamagata yeast YK009 A high pitched pop when the bottle is opened. When pouring it into a vessel, it makes a nice tok-tok sound. Is this sound caused by the shape of the bottle? When you take a sip, it has a sweet, fresh taste with a tangy, gaseous sensation that is typical of nama sake. Even sake is nouveau because a new local sake is released in November. I hope it becomes as well recognized as wine☆.

100% Miyamanishiki, Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. When the bottle is opened, there is a high sound. The aroma is subdued. When you take a sip, an apple-like aroma escapes your nose and makes you tingle. It is fresh with acidity. This is the first bottle of Miyamanishiki Shiboritate of Morishima's new sake year. Since it was this sake opened at the end of the year that I recorded at New Year's this year, this completes the total of 11 Morishima bottles that I have opened. Glad I didn't miss a beat!

100% Short-stalked boat, Polishing ratio undisclosed Alcohol content 15 degrees When the cork is opened, there is a nice popping sound. The aroma is gorgeous, and when you take a sip with high expectations, you will be surprised to find that the flavor is unmistakably delicious. It has a strong acidity and sweetness, and I never get tired of drinking it, but it's a waste, so I'm going to keep some for myself. I have been trying not to keep a record of the same brand, but I drank this terroir on New Year's Day this year, soon after I started "Sake-no-wa". Almost a year has passed.... It is labeled 2021, but I wondered if I should tag it as "hiyaoroshi" since it was made in April this year and released in October (^^)

Chizu
Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol content 15 degrees There seems to be just a little bit of color. The aroma is subdued but kind of sweet. When you drink it, it has a sourness, so much so that you can feel a tingling that is not gas, this is indeed a very dry sake. It's been a long time since I've had Hyakujuro. The kumatori label has a strong impact, and the color and background design differs depending on the brewing, so I wanted to collect them and bought them whenever I found them. The simplicity of this akazuri label is as cool as ever!

Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 The color is beautifully clear and colorless. Perhaps because it was just taken out of the refrigerator, the aroma is almost imperceptible. However, when you take a sip, the aroma escapes through the nose, and the taste is sweet and delicious at first, and then becomes sharp and spicy later. The label gave the impression of deep autumn and mellow, but it tasted more like fresh melon or cucumber. I had the room well warmed, so I enjoyed it cold.

100% Hitogochiki grown in Tochigi Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 17 Sake degree +7.5, Acidity 1.5 The aroma is sweet and powdery. There is a slight color, and although it is a pure sake, it tastes light and light, and the alcohol content is quite high. (And this is what I thought when I opened the bottle a few days ago.) It says to drink it "cold," but when I heated it up, the aroma and taste became more acidic and spicy. In my opinion, I like the aroma better cold, but the taste is better warmed up.

Super limited aged sake Alcohol content 19%. As it is a regular sake, the rice polishing ratio is not stated. The color is only slightly discernible in a white vessel, and the aroma is mild. Taking a sip, it is surprisingly sweet and does not seem to have a high alcohol content. This is the first sake I have had as a gift. I don't usually drink alcohol-sweetened sake, but since it was numbered, I was looking forward to opening the bottle. It was a little sweet for me, so I warmed it up halfway through and the impression of spiciness became stronger.

100% Omachi from Okayama Prefecture, Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 16%. There is a slight color. The aroma is mild and sweet on the palate, but it is dry and light. As you drink it and the temperature rises, the taste and aroma become more robust. I will keep some of this and warm it up at a later date. This is probably the first time I have had this sake. The Miroku series is shipped in accordance with the four seasons. I would like to try other seasonal sakes as well.

I heated it up tonight! The aroma is much better, and the sweetness or umami is stronger while remaining refreshing, so it was the right choice.

Rice polishing ratio 58 Alcohol content 15%. It has a slight color, a gaseous and fruity taste. To be honest, I had avoided drinking it because of the image of a rather strong sake, but it was recommended by a liquor store that knew my taste, and when I heard that Takeyu had taken care of the remaining sake from the Yuki Brewery, which had burned down in May, I was impressed by the fact that they were both local rival breweries. I was also impressed by the fact that Takeyu had immediately decided on a place to store their sake, despite the fact that they were both local rival breweries!

It is so spicy and powerful that it makes your tongue tingle. Tonight we had a lot of strong flavored food, so the light sake would have been outclassed, so it was perfect! I drank it all, but because of the high alcohol content, I was quite dizzy. Even though it was a weekday.

100% Miyamanishiki, 65% polished rice ratio Alcohol content 15%. The aroma is moderate. It has a moderate acidity and a junmai-like flavor, and because it is not heavy, it is easy to drink like a junmai ginjo. Even though tonight was Monday, we had a lot of it. Fuji Taikan is also delicious, but recently it has been getting a lot of attention among brands from Ibaraki Prefecture, and since it is close to my parents' house, I tend to hijack it. There are no shipments in October, so I finally caught up after a month's delay ((sweat)).

100% Hitogochi grown in Tochigi Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15%. The aroma is moderate, and the color of the Hiragana label and the atmosphere on the palate suggest sweetness, but after drinking it, it is quite dry and refreshing. It can be served with both sashimi and simmered dishes without disturbing them, making it a good sake for a meal. I had never thought of a sharp and refreshing sake like this before. I had no idea what a "sharp and clean" sake was, but now I know for sure that this is what it is! I could clearly see it in my mouth.

Sake meter degree -1, Acidity 1.8 Yeast: Association 1401, Association 1801 The aroma is mild and the taste is mildly sweet, but it is quite spicy as you drink it. There are five kinds of rice used! The same rice is used in different milling ratios and in different proportions...the back label is a bit of a surprise (lol)!

100% Ipponshime produced in Uonuma, rice polishing ratio 48 Gorgeous aroma, even fresh from the refrigerator. It has a slight color and gasiness. The sweet, umami juicy flavor perfectly matches the aroma. It was very tasty for me, but it was a little sweet for my husband. It is "Aki-agari" even though it was produced in August. Recently, all breweries are shipping their products early. I feel that the season of sake is getting earlier and earlier every year.

100% Miyamanishiki from Akita Prefecture, 55% polished rice Alcohol content 15%. No.6 yeast The aroma is subdued yet gorgeous. It has a strong umami flavor, but the light acidity and sweetness make it easy to continue drinking. It is a fire-aged version of the raw sake produced in December last year and drunk in January. The bottle was finally opened today. (Manufactured in June). Is the nama sake also 100% Miyamanishiki? I checked and found that there was 2% Akita Komachi in the mix. I honestly can't tell the difference, but it has no gasiness and the image of orange is not so strong, but if you have ever had Yamamoto, you will agree that it is delicious.
