The sunrise was not visible again this year, and for the fifth year in a row it was the first day of the new year at the beach. The food was delicious, but the alcohol was a little strong for my tired body.

Kame no Kai is rapidly rising in my mind. Local Kinmon-nishiki, pesticide-free sake rice, brewed to the maximum. The sweet aroma through the nose is irresistible. It is a flavor explosion.

This is a freshly pressed gem for the first sake of 2023, in December. We chose this sake because we wanted to incorporate the spirit of being straightforward and open-minded. It has a freshness with a gusto of acidity and 18% alcohol by volume that will cheer you up.

A refreshing drink before a meal. Sweetness and a little acidity. Is this what Omachi is all about? It is easy to drink and goes down smoothly. I want to finish it while it is still delicious.

The orange color of the label, which reads "Yuyake Koyake" (sunset glow), is an eye-catching feature of the bottle's etiquette. The flavor and sweetness spread across the palate, and the alcohol is a little strong on the nose at 16 degrees, which is why it expresses the cool breeze of an autumn evening in Nagano. After all, autumn comes after the Bon Festival in Nagano.

I was threatened that it would blow very hard, so I carefully opened the bottle and was able to drink it without incident. I was recommended to put some ice on top, so I drank it well chilled and refreshed. It was a perfect summer drink.

It was a happy sake with no unpleasant taste, as if the brewer had thought about not only the comfort of drinking it, but also about your body after you finished drinking it and sobered up. It has an excellent balance of umami, sweetness, and a sense of shwariness that is typical of nama-zake. Delicious! I regret why I had not come across this sake when I used to live in Ueda. You can feel the thoughtfulness of the careful makers.

We named it DRY SPARKRING. It was a cup filled with the possibilities of sake Mugen. It was not too sweet, but crisp and refreshing. It is a perfect sake for my colleague who is transferring to Saku for flower arrangement.

A cute etiquette of a thunderbird wearing a 🍑 momo. It has a natural peach scent and is not overpowering. They also have strawberry 🍓, so I'm looking forward to that!

It went well with meat-based snacks. Room temperature◎This is my favorite food sake. It says, "Handmade in extreme cold. Saku is one of the coldest places in Nagano Prefecture, and it will be below minus 10 degrees tomorrow morning. I received this as a crowd funding to support Saku Sparkling. I had the pleasure of not knowing what the return gifts would bring, so I'm very pleased with my new acquaintance!

First part of the New Year's sake fest! I wanted to drink shuwashu at the end of the work year, and it was so shuwashu that I spilled it on my desk. What a waste. The sweet mouthfeel made me open it right up.
