I thought I've had a lot of Miyagi sake, but this is the first brand I've had. Sake from the mountains of Miyagi. As the name suggests, this brand uses the underground water from Mt. Kurikoma, and it is soft, mild, lazy, and delicious. Cold tomatoes, hot cabbage rolls, Enjoying sake at room temperature in an air-conditioned room after taking a bath. The cold and room temperature sake were good, but the hot sake was too good. The balance of umami and cleanliness was so good that I could drink it forever. The warmed sake had a heavier umami and bitterness that was also delicious. By the way, I heard that Kurihara City was ranked No. 1 in the countryside where people want to live, and there is a cotton shop in Kurihara City.

Yakiniku at home. I like Halami when it comes to yakiniku. Shinomine, about 2 weeks after opening the bottle. Unfiltered raw sake at room temperature. It is light and easy to drink when cold. When it is brought back to room temperature, the deliciousness of the rice is in full bloom. It is easy to drink with a strong sake-like flavor and acidity, perhaps in consideration of the recent trend. I would like to try Shinomine's local sake someday.

A gift from a branch office in Miyagi. It was delivered as a year-end gift. Since no one took it home with them, we gratefully received it. Katsuyama is a brewery in Sendai City, and this is the first time I have had this brand, but it is still a Miyagi sake with a calm taste and a delicious rice flavor. It is really delicious. It was this good on the day the bottle was opened. I am looking forward to drinking it in the future. Bonito tataki is good, but sashimi is also delicious. I am happy to drink with tasty snacks.

In summer, aji sashimi and cold tomatoes. I will be serving Joyo, a locally brewed sake from Yamashiro, Kyoto. This brand is sometimes seen at liquor stores in Osaka and Kyoto. It has the image of a sake for drinkers who are faithful to the basics and have a strong core. Unusually for such a Joyo, I thought it was a good summer sake with a fizzy and light taste until about the third day after opening. After a week, the taste became a quiet delight for connoisseurs and sake drinkers. It is hot even though the rainy season has not yet ended.

Gokayama's sake, San-Shoraku. Sanjoraku is a delicious raw sake. The other day, I drank a Yamahai Yamahai with water added and hi-iru, which was a waste of time. It is beautiful but punchy. It is an excellent sake that is easy to drink and has a great sake flavor that can be enjoyed in turn. It is a good sake that you can enjoy the drinkability and the taste of sake in turn. I thought it was a flashy sake, but it was not. It is also good with broccoli and kiriboshi-daikon (dried radish), which are side dishes at Famima. It is a sake that can be enjoyed even with dried daikon radish or broccoli from the Family Mart. It is too luxurious, but it is a sake that is comfortable for the body and should be a regular drink.

Speaking of Wakayama's sake Kido is the most popular sake in Wakayama. I would like to push Kurogyu. Of course, I think Kido is a good sake. I also like Kurumizaka. I thought Kurogyu made a punchy, umami sake. But when I looked at the label, I realized that the toji was from the Noto Toji lineage. That makes sense. Now, Kurogyu. It shows the potential of sake. It is a great match for fatty fried hormones and other strong-flavored foods such as fried eggplant and sweet-and-sour pork. It is interesting even when the temperature is raised, and also tastes great when cooled. Kurogyu is a brewery that produces a lot of new sake, such as unpasteurized sake and seasonal sake. Although Kurogyu is a brewery that produces a lot of new sake I like this orthodox Junmai the best, just like Kurogyu.

On the way home from a company drinking party. Stopped at the supermarket. Have another drink at home. I thought I'd have a drink. It's been sitting in the fridge for a long time. Tenpoichi in Fukuyama, Hiroshima. It is a dry sake with a sharp taste, as the old saying goes. In the hot season, a sharp cold sake can be drunk forever. The next morning after falling asleep, I drank it at room temperature. It is a quintessential Hiroshima sake and has a deep flavor. Personally, I preferred it at room temperature. Welcoming sake is also good.

Niigata sake today because Tochioage was on sale at the supermarket I often go to. The only Niigata sake that is sold at a local liquor store is this one, Yukinuchubai's "Normal Sake". My definition of sake is a sake with added sugar. To be honest, I don't like to drink it, but Yukinakubai is an exception. Honjozo is good, but for me personally, this is the best sake. Alcoholic sake is often criticized for its strong alcoholic smell, but I think the smell of alcohol is what makes this sake so good. The flavor of soybeans from Tochio-age (fried horse mackerel) and the flavor of big slices of aji (horse mackerel). The umami of horse mackerel cut into large pieces and the umami of soy sauce. The alcohol and the sake's deliciousness do not lose out to the deliciousness of the ingredients. Who said that Niigata sake is light and dry? Good sake, Yukichubai!

Hi Maruwa 😊 Regular sake from Yukichubai 👍. This bottle is labeled "Niigata" and is commonly known as "Niigata Label". It is a sake that has a sake-like character, including the alcohol smell👍. It has a certain elegance to it, which is another characteristic of Yukichubai.

I like to pair Tochi-age with regular sake "Ryu" from Echino Keitora, I see what Mr. Maruwa means when he says, "Alcohol and sake are as good as the flavor of soybeans (ingredients).

Good evening, Mr. Hiraccio. Yukinaka Ume, it's so deeply delicious. While it is said to give a sense of elegance. It has the sticky sweetness of ordinary sake. I feel like I am drinking sake. I'd like to drink it with red chochin.

I'm also interested in Keitora. Is there a sake that has local roots? It's not easy to find this sake in Osaka.

The sticky sweetness of regular sake, yes 😅. But it's a good drink that you're drinking 👍like you'd want to drink it with a red lantern 🏮. The Honjozo you know has a more dignified profile.

It's also a junmai sake, It is an excellent sake with almost no alcohol or sake smell, but it is a light and tasty Junmai sake that warms up well.

Whenever I go to Kyoto, I stop by a liquor store, which is a special distributor of Matsunotsu no Tsukasa. The special junmai is a rare class of sake that only a limited number of liquor stores carry. This time, however, they had a bottle of nama-shu on hand, so I bought a four-pack of nama-shu and a bottle of hi-iru (hi-iri). It is interesting to note that the sake and acidity levels change between the nama and hi-iru versions. Today's sake was the first. The first sip was delicious. Sweet but delicious. I was at a loss for words. Matsu no Tsukasa is one of my favorite brands of sweet sake with a sharp aftertaste, so it is easy to pair with sashimi and other dishes. And above all, heated sake is delicious. But it's hot. I was sweating after drinking hot sake.

Nagano Sake's favorite Meikyojosui al-soaked ginjo sake. Hamazushi's favorite fried broccoli and cartilage. Yunomi's favorite Karatsu. A little special, on a day when you want to pamper yourself. The rice flavor and ease of drinking, an excellent balance, is typical of Nagano.

One of the pleasures of business trips is drinking at business hotels. At my regular hotel in Kokura, I have a drink with snacks I bought at MaxValue. Fukuoka has great sake, fish, and meat. I also want to eat ramen. Sake is from Kitaya. A brewery that makes a good honjozo is sure to be good. It is delicious. This is my favorite Fukuoka sake. Kitaya and Morinokura. A traditional and delightful sake. This business trip lasted three days. We compared a 65% polished Yamada for a distributor and a 60% polished special honjozo for the local market. Now, which sake should I bring back this time?

I'm happy to say that it's for work. I travel to Fukuoka a couple of times a year. Each time, I always pack my suitcase, but I always buy this Morinokura. This sake is sold at a supermarket near my usual business hotel. There is nothing special about it. There's nothing special about it, but you'll know it when you drink it. One sip and you will understand the excellence of this humble and unassuming sake. It's June and everyone is drinking summer sake, but there's still plenty of time for heated sake. but heated sake is still delicious these days.

The firefly squid is almost finished. So, I pulled out my favorite sake. Atago no Matsu Honjozo This is a really nice sake with a beautiful, unadorned mouthfeel and a great balance of umami. Not too light, not too heavy, and not too tiring to drink, this sake is just right for everyday drinking. Junmai Ginjo and Daiginjo are also delicious, but this deliciousness and drinkability can only be achieved with Honjozo. This sake is good to drink at room temperature with a cup of hot water, but it is also very drinkable chilled. The combination with firefly squid with vinegared miso is perfect!

This is a heavyweight sake with a Tamagawa feel that looks great warmed up. A really good heated sake can be served with sashimi or without any snacks. According to the brewery, this sake is still in the easy-drinking category, and there are other brands that are more aggressive and punchy.

There are three sakes that I have been drinking that I must buy when I see them. Shoyuki's hiyaoroshi, Tsukibotan's barrel sake, and Matsu-no-Masa's nama-hashiori raw sake. The umami is amazing. It is outstanding, but easy to drink and can be served with meat, fish, vegetables, or anything else. However, the sake is the star of the show, not the food. Anyway, it is delicious. Although the sake is -5 on the sake scale, this is a food sake. Sake by itself is good, but this is a too good sake to be enjoyed with a meal.

Sasakama, kinpira, hijiki, Just go to a convenience store, it's a convenient time. Yamahai Junmai, clean taste and fresh aroma. To be honest, I am not a fan of fruity sake, but sake that tastes good and smells fresh and azure is delicious just by putting it in your mouth. I bought this sake at a GW event, but it is not easy to find in Osaka. When I drank it in the past, it was a junmai genmai sake, a sake that exploded with the flavor of rice, but I didn't know there was also a sake that could be drunk refreshingly. I am glad to hear that. It is a brand I would like to pursue.

Local sake for local food. Aji sashimi and a glass of sake. Spring has come, the weather is warming up, and the horse mackerels are starting to get fat. A famous Shizuoka sake, Kikusen at room temperature. The taste of aji, soy sauce, and sake. Slowly, slowly, slowly. Luxury. It would have been great with some sudachi (Japanese citrus fruit).

What is good about Nagano sake? Even though the sake is easy to drink The sake is easy to drink, but it is also very assertive and assertive. This 70% polished sake from Matsumoto, Alpine Masamune, is wonderful warmed up, heavy-boned, spicy, and full of eels. The label on this sake says that it is a very dry junmai sake, and as such, it is quite dry with a hardness. It is said that no sake goes well with eel, but I personally think that fatty eel and dry sake go well together. The sauce is very little and extravagant, And above all, sake is the most luxurious thing to drink from noon!

I also like Nagano sake, The clarity and the taste ride is not like the neighboring prefecture of Niigata Prefecture. A bowl of eel from noon is a luxury. I also like to enjoy the taste of the eel itself with less sauce. 👍

Hello, Mr. Hiraccio. I see that Nagano and Niigata are neighboring prefectures. I looked at the map again, and both prefectures are large from north to south. It would be fun to compare the different regions of the prefectures. There are many good breweries in both Niigata and Nagano.

I went all the way to Namba, where Shirakiku is sold, to buy some bonito that looked good at a nearby fish shop. Shizuoka and Miyagi are good, but I prefer Kochi sake for the bonito. This sake is called "Zanshin," but it's not really dry. It is rather soft and gentle. It is even more so when heated. Kochi sake is often thought of as a rugged, dry sake, but for me personally, it is more than dry; it is easy to drink, with a pleasant thirst-quenching taste and a pronounced flavor that is easy to savor. Shirakiku in particular is easy to drink. You can drink it forever.

This is the taste of sake from long ago. It is nostalgic. Sweet, sweet and a little sticky. Reminds me of when I was young and broke. A warming drink. The horse mackerel is also delicious. The atmosphere of Takaraiya changes at once when you go up to the special junmai class. It has a firm flavor and crispness that is typical of Oita. However, I feel most at home with honjozo.

Good evening, Maruwa 😊. I have had Takaraiya's special junmai in one cup and it was a good sake, but the honjozo with horse mackerels sounds good too.
