Suigei純米吟醸 吟麗 summer

The summery label is perfect for the day of Risshatsu. The sweet ginjo aroma is drier than expected on the palate. The taste is refreshing and crisp, just like summer. It was served with sashimi of kinmedai (sea bream), also from Kochi.

My first sake from Ibaraki. It has a faintly sweet aroma. When you take a sip, you also feel a slight gassy sensation. The mouthfeel is dry, but the rice flavor gradually fills the mouth. It was served with freshly harvested bamboo shoots stewed in chikuzen (bamboo shoots stewed in soy sauce), which is in season now.

Found them in Hiroshima too! Spring pink label. Refreshing aroma, mild gasiness. The balance of riceiness and acidity is good, although I did not feel that much citrus. I had it with seared oysters and a bowl of rice topped with seafood and shirasu.

To celebrate my son's success in passing the high school entrance exam, I toasted him with Seikagami Gen, the best local sake in Hiroshima. (Passing the exam is not a dream!!!). It has a calm but full aroma and a smooth texture on the tongue. And a soft and gentle aftertaste. Not flashy at all, but always a delicious sake. We had it with assorted sashimi (tuna, sea bream, octopus) and fried chicken.

Today's dinner was decided to be tempura, so I hurriedly bought it at a nearby Aeon. It is fermented with natural yeast and is bubbly and slightly cloudy, like a spring haze. The slight cloudiness is like a spring haze. The aroma is subdued and there is a hint of bitterness from the gas. We enjoyed it with tempura of spring vegetables such as kogomi and rape blossoms.

It smells sweet and sour upon opening the bottle. It has a sweet and sour aroma upon opening the bottle. It is not too overpowering, but there is a strong sense of rice in between. I enjoyed it with motsunabe (motsunabe is a meat stew with a light soy sauce broth).

Hakuten Bi, which had been warmed (or chilled) for about two weeks after purchase. It has an elegant aroma reminiscent of white grapes. In the mouth, there is another elegant gaseous feeling. It has a refreshing mouthfeel, but with a crisp rice flavor that does not overpower the richly seasoned dishes. I enjoyed it with boiled nodoguro and octopus and flatfish sashimi.

This is the third Okayama local sake. It has a moderate aroma, a light texture, and a clear throat. It has a watery taste and lacks a little impact. We enjoyed it with snow crab which we received as a tax payment.

New Year's Day is a time for local sake. It smells gently, and the delicate gas neutralizes the punch of Omachi in the mouth. It is dry on the throat and goes well with all kinds of food. We enjoyed it with Japanese New Year's Day dishes and ozoni.

The second Okayama local sake. Hakuto yeast is used as in Okayama. It retains the richness of Omachi, but has a fresh taste. I enjoyed it with a well-seasoned teriyaki yellowtail.

When I went back to my parents' home, I found Okayama's local sake... It has a gorgeous ginjo scent and an elegant texture on the tongue. It is very refreshing and easy to drink. We enjoyed it with oysters on the half shell from Okayama.

This is a brand that we plan to finish drinking this year. It has a light mouthfeel and a pleasant gassy feeling. It has a refreshing taste, but with a strong aftertaste of rice. We enjoyed it with sashimi of sea bream and cochineal.

The "Kaze no Mori" that I have been longing for, there was an authorized dealer in Hiroshima. It has a solid rice aroma that is a little different from the gorgeous aroma. It has a gassy taste as expected, and an outstanding presence that can be enjoyed with any kind of food. We enjoyed it with beef steak (wasabi soy sauce).

It doesn't have the elegant scent of other moons after rain. On the other hand, it has a smooth texture and gentle sweetness like no other. I enjoyed it with raw oysters from Kurahashijima, Kure City, where Aihara Sake Brewery is located.

I bought salted sea squirt at a Miyagi products exhibition held at a local department store, so I had some Miyagi sake. It is slightly origarami. It smells of soft melon and delicate gas. It has an elegant sweetness that doesn't linger. We enjoyed it with sashimi of bonito and salted sea squirt.

It has a mild aroma and smoothness through the throat. You don't feel the heaviness of Omachi so much, and it has a light taste that doesn't linger in a good way. I wonder if it will "mature strongly" as the label says after a few days. We enjoyed it with Tori-ten (chicken tempura) and Chawanmushi (steamed egg custard).

The aroma is not too assertive, with a hint of fresh green apple. The taste is as clean and refreshing as the form. We were happy to be able to buy Gifu sake at the liquor shop of an ordinary supermarket in Hiroshima. We enjoyed it with grilled salmon with saikyo, simmered squid and mustard lotus root.

Sake Day. This is a local sake from Yamaguchi, brewed by the female toji of Saku and Kawatsuru, two of my favorite sake brands. Even though it is not a ginjo sake, it has a rich aroma, a good sense of gas, and a nice aftertaste that makes it addictive. We enjoyed it with sashimi of yellowtail, which has a good amount of fat and a clean aftertaste as well.
