日本酒に2021年秋から目醒めた初心者です。 近所に利き酒店を見つけたのがきっかけ。 かつては日本酒は無理やり飲まさせて、翌日残って辛い思い出しかなかったが、 こんなに旨いとは。。知らなかった。 目標は旨くて安い酒を見つけること!

Toyobijin限定純米吟醸愛山

みずくん
Refreshing and pleasant to drink. Fruity aroma. Sweet taste and sharp aftertaste. It is delicious in every way. This is my first Toyo Bijin, and I have become a fan. It may be because of the Aiyama rice, but I would like to try another brand.

Fusano Kankiku純米吟醸 松尾自慢

Matsuo Boast of Kangiku All of Kangiku's sakes are delicious, but this was another delicious sake. My image of Kangiku is sweet, fruity, and mellow, but this one was dry. It is a great sake for a mealtime drink. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is like sweet apples. The first sip is the usual fruity Kangiku, but later I felt the spiciness. The price is also a little cheaper, so it's a good deal. Kangiku is the best!

Just a year ago, I drank this sake at a local restaurant and thought it was delicious. There are many varieties of kuheiji, but this is the only one that is made in the raw form. It is a precious sake that can only be drunk now. It was delicious. The aroma was apple-like. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the fruity sweetness and the spiciness. It is an exquisite harmony. It is delicious!

Hirotogawa純米吟醸

みずくん
My first encounter with Hirotogawa was with a special junmai sake. Since then, this brand has become synonymous with cheap and tasty sake for me. This time, I went all out and selected a junmai ginjo. It was indeed delicious. But is special junmai sake good enough for you? I realized once again that sake from a good brewery is good regardless of its grade. Fruity and spicy, it can be enjoyed both before and during meals. The aroma is also mellow. It is delicious.

A spring version of Kangiku. When you open the lid, you will feel a fizzing sensation. The mouthfeel also has the same fizzy feeling. The taste is sweet and easy to drink with a touch of sourness, and although the alcohol content is 15 degrees Celsius, you don't feel the alcohol at all. It is very tasty. Kangiku is always good, no matter what you drink.

First time registered in Aomori Prefecture. This is indeed Tasake. What a mellow flavor. I bought it at an online liquor store as a special offer for bulk purchases, and it is sad that it runs out so quickly because it is a 4-pack bottle. I am happy to drink Tazake at home with my wife. Nothing could make me happier.

The moment you drink it, you will be surprised, this is amazing. It is an all-around sake with sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. Is it possible for a noble sake to be this rich? It's insanely delicious. No, really. I've been saying it was just fruity, but this is a different genre of sake. Everyone should try it!

Wakanami純米吟醸

みずくん
I bought it because of the influence of a sake YouTuber, Macharu, who was drinking it. I thought Kyushu was a culture of shochu, but it seems there are also good sake. This is Wakanami. It has a fruity yet bitter flavor that is hard to describe. As a food sake, I think it is a sake that can be matched with various dishes without disturbing the taste of the food. I've found another great sake!

Tenbi純米吟醸 生原酒

みずくん
When you bring your mouth close to the glass, a sweet aroma wafts through your nostrils. In the mouth, it tastes sweet and sour, even sweet and sour like a lactic acid beverage. I am impressed that this is indeed a sake made by a woman. I think that this is the result of the company completely breaking away from the "light and dry" style of sake that once dominated the market and pursuing its own unique sake. Of course, this sake is popular among women, but it is also tasty for men. I would like to try Kurotenbi next.

In addition to a slight sweetness, it has a sour and fresh taste. The ginjo aroma when poured into a glass is exceptional. It is best to drink it in a wide-mouthed glass like a wine glass. Delicious.

We got it in last year's hometown tax rush. It is 80% polished rice, but the freshness of the sake is unmistakable. It is very sweet and easy to drink. It is very sweet and easy to drink. I can feel the care that goes into the brewing of this sake, including the cultivation of the rice. This is my first time to try natural sake, and I would like to repeat it again.

Hananomai純米 しぼりたて

みずくん
This is the fourth bottle of Hana-no-Mai. This time it is this year's new sake. It was a gift from a business partner. It is dry and has a mellow taste. I used to prefer sweet sake, but dry sake is also delicious. It was a bit disappointing because the person who brought it to me was not very knowledgeable about sake and did not seem to keep it in the refrigerator. But it was delicious. Thank you!

みずくん
As a New Year's sake. It is indeed a 33% polished Daiginjo. The sweetness, bitterness, and astringency combine well, and despite its fruity aroma and mouthfeel, it has a strong impact. According to the comment on the back of the bottle, Hakutsuru's sake rice is used. If that is the case, Hakutsuru should also produce this kind of delicious sake! I would like to say, "If that's the case, Hakutsuru should also produce this kind of delicious sake! (Maybe I just don't know about it.) It was delicious!

It has been a long time since I have had a cold chrysanthemum. When you take a sip, a fresh breeze flows from your mouth to your nose. It is sweet and delicious. Is this sake? I always think, "Is this really sake? I hear that Chiba Prefecture is known for its hard water, but even such water can be used to make such delicious sake. I would like to meet him again.

Yokoyamasilver7 純米吟醸生酒

The season for new sake has come again this year. We have been waiting for this long-awaited sake. The sake is also good when it is fired, but it is still better when it is fresh. We got it through Furusato tax payment! There are only two months left until the tax payment deadline. I'll pay as much tax as I can! LOL! In my opinion, it is the most popular sake among the sake that can be obtained by Furusato tax payment, along with Kagura. Kagura is a little expensive, but Yokoyama is cheap. It's number one overall.

11/14 I had a drink at home with my co-workers and we compared Murayu, Eiko Fuji, Hanayuup and Yokoyama, and this Yokoyama was the highest rated. Sweet and a little fruity!

Hanayu Omachi. I have had HANA-UP, Dewa Sanzan, Sake Mirai, and Omachi, but Omachi was my favorite. The sweet aroma, mouthfeel, and lingering bitterness on the palate are the same as usual, but the sweetness seems stronger. We will enjoy it as a food sake. It is delicious. I wish it were a little easier to find. Next time, I'll try Aizan, though it's a bit expensive.

Murayu Aki-agari. I found this at a store I stopped by on my way home from a golf outing in a neighboring prefecture. I prepared a lot of refrigerant and was ready to buy even fresh sake. The best match of sweetness and sourness that can be found in Murayu. A mellow taste. It reminds me of tropical fruits. However, the bitterness that lingers in the aftertaste is a bit strong. It is delicious.

Glorious Mt.Fuji酒未来 無濾過生原酒純米大吟醸原酒生酒無濾過

A very prominent green label in a liquor store. The words "Sake Mirai" are written there. Moreover, it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. How could it not be good? So I got it without hesitation. It was very fresh and juicy, reminiscent of a melon. But there was a slight pungency or bitterness in the aftertaste. It also has a bitter aftertaste and a great sharpness, so it's good as a food sake! Delicious!

At a golf review party. At a tavern, I kept a bottle of sake. I probably won't be able to experience such luxury in my life. Anyway, it was delicious. Sweet and fruity. No aftertaste. Nothing to say. I have tried many different kinds of sake in my search for the best, but this is the best! It has a premium price, and the average person can't afford it, but with this flavor, it's as good as, if not better than, a fine wine. If I had to pay tens of thousands of yen for a four-pack of fine wine, I would buy a bottle of Jushiyo.
