New Year's Sake #3
Hyper Nova is an extreme supernova from Eiko Fuji.

New Year's Sake #2
Kudo Ue. This sake is unique in that it has a strong sweetness.
It is a sake to be savored by itself rather than as a food sake. It is a delicious sake, but it is also a dangerous sake because it is so easy to drink.

New Year's Sake #1
It is a brewed sake, but I am always impressed by its taste, which is as good as Junmai Ginjo. It goes well with New Year's menu. It has a refreshing sweetness, but it doesn't linger and is refreshing.

After I purchased it, I let it sit in the fridge for a while.
The crown was made to release gas, so when I opened the bottle, it was not as fizzy as last year. I regret that.
Nevertheless, the quality of the sake was so good that once I opened it, I finished it in no time.

The aroma is very nice.
The alcohol content is low at 13%, so you can enjoy it lightly. The bitter taste was a little stronger in a fuller glass, but in a straight glass, it was refreshingly sweet with a hint of bitterness, which I liked.

As the label says, it has a pear-like aroma and a refreshing sweetness like green apple on the palate with a clean finish. It is easy to drink and went well with steamed chicken salad.

This time, Genshu Mai had a light flavor, perhaps because it was not a junmai (pure rice) sake. I have the impression that it is good as a food sake.

It is a yellow labeled Densho Kiku.
It was a beautifully flavored sake, with a little bit of a schwashy, sour and fruity taste. Personally, I prefer the red-labeled Denshogiku, which has an orikara flavor.
Both are delicious, so this is only a comparison of the Denshogiku red and yellow labels.

This is the first time I have had Denshogiku, which I had longed for.

Since it was a three-day weekend, I opened a bottle of Huayoukou that I had stored in the refrigerator to enjoy the change in flavor.
It has a pineapple-like aroma, sweetness, and a subtle bitterness in the aftertaste. On the second day, I paired it with a tofu salad, and the tropical flavor became more pronounced.

Immediately after opening the bottle, you can feel a slight spike.
It is fruity, with a fresh sweetness like pear or apple, and it goes down smoothly. It is also delicious.
It is a bit light in a straight glass, so a glass of whisky would be good to enjoy the aroma.

We decided to have something seasonal, so we had a hiyaoroshi from Fumikiku.
This sake also had a beautiful flavor (clear or refreshing). It was perfect for a mealtime sake and was served with seasonal ingredients and dishes.
Personally, I can buy this brand with no worries.
