madamarr(まだまーThe seventh and final sake of the Sake no Jin is Garakudai Zuika from Tenryohai Shuzo brewery on Sado Island, which has been the talk of the town for a while now. I took a sip and found it to be perfectly balanced. A little bit of tangy sweetness, followed by umami that spreads and disappears with a faint aftertaste. I felt that nothing was too much, and it had a sense of refinement. This will be a regular at next year's sake festival, though there are too many regulars (laugh).

imayotsukasaガチャ限定 純米酒

madamarr(まだまーWe visited the Imadaiji Sake Brewery, which is located near Niigata Station. After the tour of the brewery, there was a gacha (a Japanese sake machine), and I couldn't help but try it. By the way, the man who was explaining the brewery tour, who seemed to be the toji (master brewer), was too funny. I recommend this place when you visit Niigata.

Koshinoyukitsubakiプレミアムキュベ 102 袋取り しずく酒

madamarr(まだまーThe sixth sake of the Sake-no-jin is Echino Yukitsubaki by Yukitsubaki Shuzo. After tasting it at the brewery, I decided to buy it immediately. It wasn't cheap (sweat), but I have to admit that it is still delicious, and the flavor spreads after the schwa. By the way, it seems that this brewery, Kamonishiki and F40's Masukagami are both breweries in Kamo city, and their atmosphere may be similar.... I visited the area around the brewery the other day, so I added some photos.

Shoku1st prototype HOP SAKE ほっぺ
19
madamarr(まだまーThe fifth sake brewery in the Sake Festival is Lagoon Brewery's Shozora. It's not a sake, so it's a bit of a change of pace, but it's a good combination of sake and beer. The aroma of hops and sake are mixed together and it goes into the nose, and the sweetness and bitterness are also mixed in. I think this is a good idea.

madamarr(まだまーThe fourth sake of the sake camp is "Kanaderu", an ambitious sake produced by the Obata Shuzo brewery of "Manotsuru". It is said to be a slightly sparkling sake, but it is not a slightly sparkling sake, but a full-fledged sparkling sake...it is good, but.... But there are many delicious sakes from Sado Island, aren't there?

madamarr(まだまーThe third sake festival in Niigata is Marubin, which is the most famous sake festival in Niigata. When I tasted the sake, it was so good that I impulsively tweeted on a certain social networking site, "This year's Marubin is the best ever"...and to top it all off, I grabbed a person who I thought was related to the brewery and said, "I always drink the sake with a package tag, but this year's Marubin is too good! Thank you very much. It's a very fresh sake, so I recommend you to drink it as soon as possible, not to say within two months... In any case, I'm glad I was able to drink it again this year, that I am.

madamarr(まだまーThe second sake tasting is from Hara Sake Brewery of Koshinohomare. Actually, the best one we tasted at the Hara Sake Brewery was "Koshinohomare 90 Pink", but the brewer told us that it was sold out before the Sake-no-jin... so we bought the second best one. But of course, it is delicious and sweet. It's close to Kouraku, which I've had so far. It's very close to Kakuraku.

madamarr(まだまーI went to the Niigata Sake Festival again this year, and the first one was "Kosumori". I had already decided to buy this one before the tasting, but I was able to buy it easily without waiting in line. My impression was... it was like being hit in the head with a fruity sensation. Anyway, I wonder how many more will be released this year... I'm looking forward to it!

Shinshu Kirei山恵錦 純米吟醸 無濾過生原酒

madamarr(まだまーI bought Shinshu Kamerei again. Because it was there, I had no choice but to buy it. It is made from local sake rice, Yamae-Nishiki, and it is a bit spicy and fresh, and it is great when you put it in your mouth and let it go down your throat!

Yamamoto6号酵母

madamarr(まだまーAccording to its website, it seems to be made with yeast No. 6 derived from Shinsei. My impression is... it's delicious, well-balanced, and has no weak points. The original Yamamoto is also good, but it's a different one...there seems to be a No.7 yeast one, so I'd like to try that one too, that I would.

madamarr(まだまーThe climax of this winter season for me is HANA-YOUKAKU, which has been hard to find these days. I'm so glad that I finally got it (I don't know how many times I went to the distributor), I've had it before, but this is my first time to try it in winter. I'm glad I was able to buy it, and I'm glad I drank it.

Imanishi純米吟醸 朝日

madamarr(まだまーIt just so happens that there is a series of sake from Nara Prefecture...not that it's a coincidence, but isn't the taste similar to that of Kaze-no-mori? It's easy to drink. It's refreshing and easy to drink, probably for the second time at Imanishi.
