全国の日本酒を制覇したいな〜。それが、衰退してる蔵元・日本酒を救うことにつながるかも、と思っています。 こんな美味しいお酒が飲める日本って素晴らしいと思います。フランスで日本酒を飲もうとすると関税もあって(一升瓶で)3万円ですって。 そう考えると1500円程度で十分美味しいものが手に入るんだから、しっかり(飲み過ぎず)飲んで応援しないとね。

. The second sake I bought at Hakurei Brewery. This sake won the gold medal in 2023 at the [Feminaries World Wine Competition], selected by "female" wine experts from around the world. It is a very sweet sake with a minus 20 degree Celsius! It certainly has a gentle taste that can be perceived as white grape juice, and I can understand why it won the award. When we spoke with the brewery, they told us that they produced a few bottles the first year, but they sold out quickly and sold out the next year as well, so they made more this year. It is easy to drink for sake beginners, and for lovers of umami sake, it is easy to drink as a food sake. The clear, sweet flavor is very tasty during this hot and humid season!

. . Koda Premium Unfiltered Nama sake from Hakurei Shuzo! It was hot again today! I bought this at the Hakurei Shuzo brewery in Maizuru. It is refreshing and citrusy on this hot summer day. I drink it on the rocks, as it has the punch of unfiltered raw sake. I bought other sake as well and will review them again.

. Toichi's raw sake. It has a pleasant fruity mouthfeel, yet firm. The final aftertaste is a little tangy, making it a long sip of sake that can be enjoyed all the way through to the end. Serve with homemade taco rice.

. . Ohmine 3grain fire-aged Yamadanishiki Ohmine 3grain ! It has been a little while since I last drank it. It is very mild because it is fire-aged. It is a very gentle, yet flavorful sake. Today is Sunday, so we had a light lunch. We ate bread from Edekker (Germany).

. . Rumiko sake for the first time in two years! Shuwa shuwa fizzy sake. I thought it would be thicker, but the fruity taste is healthy. It is as delicious as ever. It's a good sake to drink on a gloomy day like today!

. Kido's (Kid's) summer gale at ‼️ On a steamy, rainy day like today, I'm in the mood for a refreshing drink, so this is exactly what I'm looking for, a light gale that runs through my mouth like a gale. While it has a slightly tangy mouthfeel, the tangy acidity rises to the back of the mouth and the aftertaste quickly recedes, making it very easy to drink. ‼️ This looks good as a light main course.

. . Eikun's Nama sake! It is a really well-balanced, lovely sake, very full, with depth and umami. I can drink it all the time. I have to work tomorrow morning, so I will enjoy it over the weekend with a little moderation. I drank it at the store run by Saito Shuzo (the brewery) before, but today I bought it and drank it at home. It is really delicious.

. . Have you ever heard of the Asahi Hawk? It is a sake from the brewery of Jyushiyo and is full of freshness and taste similar to Jyushiyo. I drank the first glass today. Very rich taste is happiness. For the sake, I paired it with dried firefly squid.

. . Taisho no Tsuru Unfiltered Nama Sake This is also a new sake for me. It is a slightly deep and delicious sake with a tangy feeling that follows later. The recommended pairing was a rare fish from the deep sea, Mexicali, dried overnight. It is fatty and sizzling. Of course it was delicious!

. . Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake "D" PIANO from Yuho. Sake that has been laid down with classical music. This is Beethoven. It has a firm umami flavor, but the spiciness is quite punchy as well. I usually drink fruity sake, so I felt it was a little spicy. The entrée was a stylish potato salad.

. . Makkou from the local Saito Shuzo brewery in Fushimi! The gentle taste of Fushimi's female water and the tangy, fruity, miscellaneous taste of the raw sake are very well balanced and delicious. Fittingly, with shrimp dumplings.

. . The moment I opened the package, bam! and the cork popped. (^^) It was a strong taste. Today was Father's Day, so I opened the bottle, I was a little confused as to what stance to take with it, as it had a very complex taste, with the richness of nigori sake, slight bubbles, and a bit of sourness. It was just okay. With eel!

. . The first sake of the year from Fukui Yahei Shoten. The snow is drilled through the drizzling stones! I love the sake here and have had it several times in the past. All of Shiga's sake is unique and delicious! This Shizuri-Yuki is a nigori sake, with a deep, robust flavor that is also refreshing and slightly acidic, making it quite complex. It is a little early today, but I started drinking while also doing some light work. It's time to get tipsy.

. . Nigori sake from Momokawa Shuzo. This was my first time drinking it. I try not to drink sake with brewed alcohol in it because I'm the type of person who gets bad drunk, but this one tasted sweet and delicious. I was late for work, so I had just one (two?) light drinks on my way home. It's the first day of the week on Monday. The entrée is ham cutlet. This is a Sembelo type of restaurant.

. . Shirokiku Honey Trap from Shirasugi Shuzo! I've had Shirokiku many times, but this Honey Trap is the best of the bunch, I've never had it before. It is refreshing, sweet, grapey, fruity, with a sizzling, slightly fizzy, complex aftertaste that is quite a nice balance. It is a good drink for a slightly humid day like today! It was truly a honey trap that I fell for! I paired it with dried sparkling firefly squid and dumplings that I received as a tax-deductible gift from my hometown.

. Biwako no Whale! It is a raw sake. It is very fruity and very flavorful. The taste is so attractive that you will want to drink as many glasses as possible! At the legendary Izakaya Kamima in Kyoto. We had tempura and sea urchin for entrée! We had a great time drinking with the manager!

. . It was a challenging day of business travel in the wake of the typhoon. I got home safe and sound, so I had a light tired sake from Fukuoka that I had picked up on my business trip in February. The moment I opened the bottle, the cork blew out! and the cork blew out! 😊. It is a sparkling sake with that much oomph. It has a robust flavor with a clean aftertaste that makes it easy to drink in gulps. I will be careful not to drink too much and enjoy my Saturday night on the weekend!
