My daughter gave me this sake from the Kamidaya Sake Brewery in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, as a Kamikochi souvenir. It is called "Kappa no Yume" and is sold exclusively at Hotel Shirakaba-so. It was a refreshing, slightly dry, easy-drinking sake.

This is a raw sake brewed with flower yeast from Tsukishita Bijin, a sake brewed by Ibaraki Sake Brewery in Akashi City. It was a little schwarziness when opened in the mouth, and although I am not sure about the flower yeast, it was a delicious sake with a slightly dry taste.

It was sold at a supermarket for 500 yen. The label says that it is made by Symphony Yoshida Brewery, a joint venture between Symphony Brewery of Hong Kong and Yoshida Brewery of Hakuryu. The sake is apparently made for export, but why in a Japanese supermarket? It was a delicious sake with a strong acidity and a good rice flavor. I felt special to be able to drink such a sake at such a low price.

This sake is made by the Umaue Sake Brewery in Kumano Town, Hiroshima Prefecture. When we visited the brewery before, it was made by a couple, but a young master brewer joined the company three years ago, and the taste of the sake has changed considerably. This time the sake was juicy but had a robust flavor, with nice bitterness and spiciness.

Purchased at Kyokuho Sake Brewery near my parents' house when I returned to Hiroshima. It is a new brand name, Toriwa. The label is also innovative. It tastes completely different from the previous Asahiho sake. It has a strong acidity, sweet and sour, like a white wine, and can be drunk more and more as a stand-alone sake.

Purchased at the traveling SAKE event at Hankyu Department Store. When I was not interested in sake in the past, I saw many signs for Shichisyo on Route 19, but I never thought I would find it here. The dark, sweet, umami flavor is layered with bitterness and spiciness, making it a very tasty sake that can be drunk on its own.
