The best thing about it is that it's so easy to drink. The taste memory and the actual taste are always the same. The taste memory and the actual sipping are always the same.

Super Kudoki Jozu純米大吟醸 生詰 改良信交

The last of the Yamagata expedition was the Soupaa Kudokidokiwai, which you all know well. It was by far the best sake I tasted at the event (Kamikigen was a close second).
The great thing about sake events is that you can directly tell the sake brewers, "This is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! The person who said it would be happy, and the person who was told would probably be happy, too.

I bought this Yamakawa Mitsuo rice during my recent expedition to Yamagata, Japan. It is said to be made from an ancient rice called Sobei Souhei, which is the parent rice of Kame-no-o (I did a little research).
It has a light summery mouthfeel, a little sweetness, and a good acidity. A little spicy to finish. It is a sake with a good balance, or rather, a good saline taste.

The event was the "Yamagata Fair, Japan's Best Sake Prefecture", and we were able to sample some fresh Jyushidai sake.
We also drank a lot of sake from Yamagata breweries, ate imoni (stewed potatoes), and enjoyed Yamagata to the fullest. It was my first time to attend this event, but it was a great one.

After attending an event in Yamagata last weekend, I bought this sake at a liquor store near Yamagata station.
It's a summer sake...so refreshing...so tasty...

The other day, on the way back from a visit to Okazaki Sake Brewery, I went to a liquor store in Saku and bought a bottle of Sogape...I was lucky enough to find a bottle of Sogape at ✌️. I felt like I had used all my sake luck for the year, running into Sogape after buying Kinkame...
The taste was different from the last time I drank it. It tastes like a mild, mellow, umami-drizzled sake...isn't this the same as my impression of the previous one? But it is delicious.

I was able to buy it, a.k.a. Kinkame (not an abbreviation of King Kamehameha). The other day, I went to the Okazaki Sake Brewery again, and there it was again... Kinkame, thank God, and I bought it immediately.
It's so good, you don't feel the need to explain it. Try it once.

I'll have an early summer sake... After the refreshing crispness comes the umani-ga... It's a summer sake, and by the way, it's supposed to be hot this year, but it's a sake that makes us look forward to summer.

It was the first time I saw it, and I couldn't resist. It is classified as "Other Brewed Sake", but it's just like sake, isn't it? The flavor and aftertaste have a hint of grape, but other than that, it's just like sake. It's a bit noisy, but it's delicious.

This is the second Gagakuyo since the Sake Festival. This time, I went for the entry model "Gekka". This time, I went for the entry model Gekka.
The aroma is more subdued than that of Zuika. The rich umami comes first, but the aftertaste is light and dry. It is well-balanced just like Zuika. It's delicious.

The last of the four sakes I bought during a GW trip to a liquor store in Mito, which seems a long time ago, was Gobashi.
It has a refreshing taste, followed by a smooth aftertaste. I think it would go well with seafood.

I bought this when I went to Mito the other day.
It is a real dry sake...but is it because of the oriented flavor? But maybe it is because of the orikara flavor, the umami flavor follows and disappears quickly. It's a hard-core sake. Sit on your seat and drink it.

Nabeshima, Koei-Kiku, and other Saga sake continue to fascinate me, but this is my first Nanada.
I felt something in common with Nabeshima, Koei-Kiku and Azuma Tsuru, but I don't know how to describe it... refreshing, fresh and a little fruity? No? I'm not very good at expressing myself.

I got it! The other day, when I dropped by a sacred place for sake, I happened to find it on sale, and I found myself standing in line at the cash register with a four-pack in my hand.
When I opened the bottle, it was a shuwa shuwa festival... but the moment I put it in my mouth... I felt like I was being punched in the face with a punch with its rich flavor. This is amazing, I was a bit impressed.

I bought it at a liquor store in Mito on my way home from a business trip to Oarai. I had never seen it before, but I guess you can read "centipede" with this name.
As the name suggests, it has a strong aroma, but the order of flavor is quickly followed by bitter and spicy. It has a high alcohol content. It seems to be a food wine. What would go well with it?

On the way back from a recent trip to Kamo City? I stopped by Hara Sake Brewery on the way back from a recent trip to Kamo City and bought it. This one is 50% polished rice and fresh. It has a delicious taste.

I found Masukagami in the neighborhood (in Kamo city) of the liquor store I stopped by last week when I went shopping in Niigata (Echino Yukitsubaki is also in the neighborhood). Of course, the liquor store also had Muskagami, so I bought it.
It is fresh on the palate, and the umami and karami rush in with a bang. It retains the Niigata sake flavor, while at the same time it has a modern feel. No wonder it was so popular at the Sake-no-jin.

I tasted a bottle of 90PINK at the event (it was really good), but it was not sold at the site. After searching all over the Internet, I found that a certain liquor store in Niigata had it in stock, so I went there last week to buy it.
I went to buy it last week and tried it...I really like it. The first sip is full-blown modern fresh fruity, but the classical bitterness, miscellaneous tastes, and sweetness soon catch up with it and accentuate it nicely. The rice seems to be unusually (dare I say it?) polished to 90%, but I can see why...it's a winner...wonderful!

I opened the package a few days ago. This is my first Zycon for drinking at home. I was a little disappointed when I first sipped it, but it had no characteristics... or it was well-balanced... but when I drank it a few days later, I found that it had a delicious taste beyond the balance. But when I drank it a few days later, I found that there was a umami beyond the balance. I see that it is very deep.
