Sagaminada無濾過生酒 美山錦純米吟醸生酒無濾過

新舘幸樹
I went to the liquor store because there was some sake I wanted, despite the fact that it was stocked in the fridge. After confirming that the sake I wanted was also in the store, I went around the store as usual. I should just buy what I wanted, but I can't do this. It is a saga of a drinker. Then, there was a brand of sake that I had been curious about for a while. I am not fond of sake from Kanagawa because of its hard quality, but there was the desired sake, so I gave it a try. As is typical of nama-shu, there was a hint of ginjo aroma. Even so, I was still 80% anxious. But the aroma did not betray me. It seems to have a good balance of the five tastes. Everything is united and spreads in the mouth. Toward the end, the dry taste comes in and finishes it off. The dry taste comes in the last stage and finishes it off. I paired it with stewed pork, and it was quite good. I was betrayed in a different way. Next time, I would like to try a standard sake.

新舘幸樹
This is my first sake. It has a fruity aroma with a sourness that is typical of a sake brewer's yeast yeast. It also has an Omachi-like aroma. It is not the acidity of today's sake, but the acidity of the sake's origins. The acidity is the main taste, but it is supported by bitterness and sweetness. It has a lingering aftertaste, as is typical of Miyagi.

I went to a liquor store in search of a low-alcohol but dry sake. I had the impression that this brewery was sweet, but it was a challenge. It was not as sweet as I expected. The spiciness and bitterness come rushing in from the slight piquancy and seem to support the amami. The lingering piquancy is long, but not too crisp. It was a bit of a discovery.

This is the first sake I have ever had. It has a good balance of bitterness and spiciness. It gives the impression of being quite hard, but I am satisfied after drinking a hard sake for the first time in a long time.

This is one that I did not pick up because it was too standard. Prices of seasonal sake have gone up dramatically across the board, but I have the impression that prices of standard sake like this have not gone up much. It is a quiet sake, but since it does not interfere with the accompaniments, I think it is a good food sake that can be served with anything. It doesn't have much aroma or taste in the mouth, but it has a nice balance of bitterness and acidity. Then, the sweetness comes in as an accent, which adds thickness. The spiciness can be felt throughout, but I think it is connected to the tightening effect and the crispness at the end. It is a stable sake.

This is the first one in this series in many years. I don't remember much about it, although my own comments from last time indicate that I didn't like it very much. I am half anxious and half hopeful because this year's taste is quite different. The color is almost colorless. The aroma is not flashy either. It has the aroma of so-called "junmai" (pure rice). As expected, it does not have the rich sweetness that I remember from before, but I first felt a tingling sensation on the tip of my tongue. Then, sweetness and sourness in the middle. In the second half, there is a bitter taste followed by a pungent taste. The sweetness and pungency are strong, but they are balanced by the acidity. I had been reluctant to buy Kame-no-o because I did not like it very much, but I think this one is good. Well, I think the main reason is that my tastes have changed. As for what to pair it with, I think it should be something well-seasoned and strong.

I went to the liquor store because I wanted a tangy and refreshing sake after a series of sweet sake recently. The summer sake is already here. I remember drinking this sake, but it was not recorded. In a word, it is crisp and clear. It does not have the piquancy that is typical of summer sake, but the timing of the transition from a moderate piquancy to bitterness is exquisite. The bitterness comes just before the spiciness disappears, and then it disappears. I paired it with a plate of fresh bonito, and although it may be an exaggeration, it was a perfect marriage with the fresh bonito. The sweetness of the sake is brought out in combination with the acidity of the bonito. It was a home run level pairing after a long time.

This is my first sake in two years. I went to a liquor store for another sake, but it happened to catch my eye and I bought it on impulse. Even though it was called "active," I opened the bottle without any difficulty. And the supernatant has a fizzy feeling on the tip of the tongue, and when you roll it around, it entertains you with its fizziness on the tongue. The sweetness is slight. There is a slight bitterness. Now, let's try mixing in the ori. This kind of sake tastes better when mixed. The sweetness is added and the flavor is thicker. Still, the sweetness is kept low, so it is crisp and refreshing, which is good for the coming season.

I realized that I had not had this brand for over a year. I was looking for a cosy sake, but could not find one, and it suddenly caught my eye, so I bought it. It is a standard brand. I knew what I was looking for, so I started off with a glass. It is a stable taste. First of all, you can feel the spiciness on the tip of your tongue. Then, spiciness and bitterness come in the middle. The sweetness disappears quickly in the last half of the drink. After swallowing, the aroma that leaves your nose is also pleasant. It has a taste of traditional sake, but also has a modern taste. It is a satisfying bottle.

I ordered it because it was listed on the menu as "Fudo" and it was a sake made with red yeast. The taste is just as I imagined. It is sweet-sweet and juicy, but light and easy to drink. It is truly a seasonal sake.

This is the first time since last July that I have been to Yamori. I was looking forward to this year's event. I quickly opened the bottle. As usual, it started with a "jouwer" and then a "ponk". First, the aroma. Hmmm...the aroma is not as strong as I expected. Well, it's Junmai, so it's not that bad. I put it in my mouth thinking, "Well, it's Junmai, so it's not like this. First of all, I was surprised to find a freshness that I had never experienced before. Then, there was a big change in taste. The taste is different from the rich, sweet and juicy taste of the past, with the sweetness being suppressed and the acidity standing out. From the middle to the latter half of the bottle, the bitterness comes in and disappears. This is quite a shock to those who have been drinking it up until now. Simply put, it has adapted to the trend. Personally, I prefer it as it was before. However, it gives the impression of being very hard just after opening the bottle, so I would like to enjoy it slowly.

With the recent price hikes in sake, I took on the challenge of finding a low-priced sake. I was attracted by the price of 2,090 yen (including tax) for a bottle of sake, saying that I did not have a bad impression of Shizuoka's sake. Even at worst, it can be used as a cooking sake. I had it cold on the day I opened the bottle. It has a slight sweetness, but not much pungency or bitterness. It is not enough to drink by itself, but it is good as a food sake because it does not interfere with the accompaniments. When I put it in the refrigerator to make it cold, the sweetness disappeared and the bitterness and pungency became too assertive and unbalanced. The aftertaste is not as good as it used to be. It is a thin sake, so it does not interfere with the taste. It tastes much better when served cold.

This is one I look forward to every year. This year, after opening the Corona, I finally got to go to the brewery opening and spent a satisfying day there. So, here is the tasting. As is the case every year, the first day the bottle is opened, the five flavors seem to be fighting with each other. On the second day, the overall cohesiveness improves, probably due to exposure to air, and the freshness of the unfiltered, unpasteurized sake can be tasted. Then, on the fourth day. I recommend drinking it slowly over a week or so, enjoying the changes in flavor.

I went to a liquor store and was browsing the refrigerators when it caught my eye. I had a strong impression that this brand was sweet, so I did not pick it up, but since the rice was Hachitan-Nishiki, I gave it a try. When I poured it into a sake cup, it was colorless and clear. The first sip. Hmmm. It is lighter than I expected. It has a strong sweetness, but it is not a rich sweetness. The label on the back says that the alcohol content is 13%. I took another sip, and found it to be a little tangy, bitter, and sweet. There is not much pungency. The aftertaste is not sharp, but it disappears nicely. There is a sweetness, but not so much that it interferes with the meal, so it is good for those who are a little more used to sake.

It's been a year since we last met. In these days and times, the price of sake has gone up so much that I have to choose affordable sake. Since it is a spring sake, the gentle freshness is pleasant. Like last year, it has a good balance of five tastes and is easy to drink. This brand does not fluctuate much from year to year, so it is a bottle that I always pick up with a sense of security.

I think this is another brand that is new to me. I didn't pick it up because I had a sweet image of it. First, let's start with the supernatant. The bitterness from the soft aroma comes, but as expected, the sweetness is strong. I tried mixing in the oli, but since it had been given a lot of rest, it did not mix well. Still, after struggling for a while, we managed to make nigorizake. Nigori (nigori) sake must be mixed. The expression changes from the sweetness of the supernatant. It is not so silky, but the flavor of the rice gives the sake a richness. However, there is almost no sharpness. The back of the bottle says that it can be served warmed, so I will give it a try.

This will be my first time at Ozura again. In the mouth, it is very soft. First, sweetness. Then the sweetness asserts itself. The bitterness and pungency are almost imperceptible. It is like sugar water with alcohol. It has a very good mouthfeel, but it is not sharp and not to my taste.

This is the first time I have tasted this brewery. It has a gorgeous aroma because it is a draft sake, but the aroma is not fruity like in Niigata, but more like rice. My first impression is that it has a good balance between classic and modern. A slight piquancy is immediately followed by an unexpected sweetness. Then comes bitterness and spiciness. The aftertaste is not sharp, as is typical of Niigata, but it finishes nicely. It is fun to drink outside for the first time in a while.

I was drawn to this pale pink label. I quickly picked it up without hesitation. I am glad that I was able to open the bottle without any problems this year. The supernatant has a freshness different from that of new sake. It has a slight effervescence and sweetness. Then it changes from bitter to spicy. When the sake is mixed with Ori, the sweetness fades away and the bitterness and spiciness at the end of the bottle finish it off as they did last year. It is not as sharp as last year, but it still has a predictable taste and can be purchased with confidence.

This is my first visit to a sake brewery. Recently, I have been drinking a lot of strong sake, so I went to a liquor store for low-alcohol sake. I thought it would be quickest to ask the clerk, but I wanted to check out the fridge. This is the sake that caught my eye. I bought it because of the comment that it is easy to drink and goes down smoothly. First of all, I opened the bottle. It started with a "sizzle" and then a "pop". When I put it in my mouth, I was hit with the freshness of new sake. It was more pungent than I expected, but it was not pungent. Then, the sweetness soon arrives and passes down the throat with the piquancy. Sake from Kyushu has a strong sweetness, but I think many of them also have a sourness. However, this sake does not have much of it. However, it is full of freshness and low in alcohol, so it is definitely easy to enjoy. Personally, my impression is that the sweetness is a bit strong. I feel that this feeling makes it go off too quickly.
