Shinsei Flaxcat 2023 March 30, 2024 Asahiya Sake Shop 1780 yen I took a vacation for my child's field day and opened a bottle of this one right on the anniversary. The aroma is sour like plums and grapes. The mouthfeel is slightly carbonated. It is mild on the tongue, but when you swallow it down, the sourness spreads. The sour aftertaste reminds one of Delaware. The lingering aftertaste is also very refreshing, making you want to take another sip. A delicious sake with impact.

FUKUUI Tasting, Dry Junmai May 25, 2024 A prototype bottle. We were attracted by the impressive temporary label. The nose and mouthfeel are full of alcohol. It has a melon-like fruitiness in the mouth, but it finishes crisp and clean. It is a dry sake that lives up to its label.

Kaguraki Masamune Special Honjozo Forte Piano Bespoke Medium Crafted Yume no Aroma April 6, 2024 Kagataya Sake Shop 3245 yen This is the first Gakki Masamune in a long time. ♪ In addition to the sweet aroma of fresh apples, it also has a sour citrus aroma. The mouthfeel is carbonated and acidic first, but the sweetness spreads gradually. The aftertaste is light sweetness. It is so fresh and pleasant to drink that it is hard to believe that it is a hi-iru honjozo low-alcohol beer. You can't help but drink too much of this.

Shirakoh Special Junmai Green Label March 17, 2024 Kagoya Shimotakaido 3190 yen A regular junmai that left a good impression at the tasting where the brewer was present. The impression I had in Hiroshima that this was for heated sake was dispelled with one sip. It had a fruity cemedine-like aroma with a carbonation sensation on the palate, a dry taste with more richness and bitterness than sweetness, and a crisp, clean taste. I was disappointed to find that after I bought the sake, I was guiding other people to try the heated sake. I wanted to try the heated sake that the brewer serves... The hot sake has a refreshing taste, while the lukewarm sake has a fuller acidity and flavor.

Takachidai Takaryu Bespoke Nakadori Nama Nama Sake, flat polished and stored at ice temperature May 11, 2024 Kagataya Sake Shop 2850 yen This is a special order of Takachidai's new Takoryu line. About 1 cm of oriki was piled up. I thought the flavor cork would blow out, but the bottle opened quietly. It has a rice-like flavor and an exciting sweet aroma of pineapple and melon. Bubbles in the glass, carbonation and a rich flavor spread to the palate with a bang. Slight bitterness and graininess linger on the palate.

Matsu no Tsukasa Junmai Ginjyo Nama Sake Watafune Hanpukai Brewing February 18, 2024 Sake-no-Ten HAYASHI Hanpukai Matsu no Tsukasa made a good impression in last year's hanpukai. The bottle was opened with high expectations. Mild aroma of grain, bitterness followed by umami, full-bodied and robust. When we quickly warmed it up, it became milky and acidic, with a sweetness and richness that we really liked. I kept it at room temperature, which is taboo, to enjoy heated sake, and it was a delicious sake that I prefer heated.

Kido Tokubetsu Junmai Namaishu Bespoke Direct Kumi Omachi April 6, 2024 Kagataya Sake Shop 3333 yen The aroma is rich, sweet and sour, like a cheerful pineapple with raisins. It also has a hint of grain and lactic acid flavors. Slight carbonation and soft sweetness are followed slowly by sourness, and the sweet and sourness spreads at once as the wine is downed. The sweet and sourness quickly fades, but it is followed by a lingering full-bodied aftertaste that is typical of Omachi. The gap between when it is in the mouth and when it is downed is amazing. It tastes one rank higher than regular Kido.

Gozenshu 1859 Nama-Shu, Bespoke Brewing No. 7, Orikagarami March 23, 2024 Sake-no-Ten HAYASHI Hanpukai Gozenshu brewed in Okayama by a female toji with local Omachi rice. It has an image of modern sake quality, but this is the first time it has been made with Bodeshige yeast. The coarse ori (ori) is fluttering in the air, and the lactic acid aroma and taste give the impression of citrus fruits. The impact of the carbonation and acidity is preceded by bitterness and richness on the back palate. The lingering bitterness in addition to the flavor makes me think of hassaku. When heated, it has a core that is not only sour but also sweet and full-bodied.

Jyushidai Junmai Daiginjyo Ryu no Otoko Daijokijo Nama December 24, 2023 6700 yen After my child's entrance ceremony, I opened a bottle of this one, which had been laying in wait since the end of last year, to celebrate. The aroma is closed off when served cold, but it has a mild aroma of peaches and apples. In the mouth, light carbonation and elegant sweetness spread throughout. The light acidity supports the sweetness, and as you finish it, you can taste the lingering sweetness that you like, as well as the richness and bitterness in the back of the mouth. I was reminded again that this is a delicious sake that I like. It was a great addition to the celebration with Jikin.

Jikin Senbon Nishiki Junmai Ginjyo Nama Shu February 18, 2024 Sake-no-Ten HAYASHI Hanpukai Opened to celebrate a child's entrance to school. Jikin Senbon Nishiki, which we tasted last year as well, has a sweet and sour strawberry ice cream atmosphere, perfect for cherry blossoms in full bloom. The aroma is of yogurt and dry figs, similar to the Sairai we opened the other day. The slight carbonation and lingering sweet and sourness invite the next sip, making it a dangerous sake to keep drinking.

HIROKI Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake January 20, 2024 Sake-no-Ten Hayashi A luxurious fixed point for this time of year. Alcoholic on the palate and spiky on the taste, but a robust, full-bodied drink. As it settles down, it has a banana-like aroma and soft acidity. The soft mouthfeel is followed by the sweetness of bananas. The acidity cuts through the aftertaste, and the juicy, full-bodied mouthfeel leaves a good impression.

Sairai Junmai Ginjyo Betsu Betsu Mutenfuki Nama Shu Nao Kumi March 23, 2024 Sake-no-Ten Hayashi Sairai from Saitama, which had been talked about in Sake-no-wa, was the first to be ordered separately. The aroma of yogurt is obvious when served cold. It also has an elegant aroma of flowers and peaches. When you sip it, the sweetness is preceded by a slight carbonation, followed by sourness and bitterness. The sweetness is impressive, but the sourness and bitterness are not so impressive. The sweetness is impressive, but the refreshing aftertaste calls for the next cup. When served cold, the bitterness decreases as the body tightens, and the light carbonation and elegant sweetness make it a dangerous sake that is easy to drink.

As the carbonation on the tongue fades, the sweetness and umami are felt. A sweet and sour sake that makes you want to drink it outside on a spring day.

Shirakoh Junmai Nama Shochu Dry 4-Step Brewing March 17, 2024 Kagoya Shimotakaido Store The brewer came to the tasting. It has a fresh mouthfeel with a slight carbonation. The impression of heated sake I had in Hiroshima was dispelled. According to the brewer, it is a sweet and spicy sake. It has a melon-like flavor, with a rich sweet and sourness that spreads out, but has a nice sharpness. We bought a bottle of regular junmai for home use.

It has a fruity aroma beyond imagination. In addition to apples, it has a milky flavor. Fresh sweet and sourness spreads on the tongue. The richness is similar to hi-iru, but the lively acidity and aftertaste on the palate are unique to nama-shu. Regular junmai with this taste is the best.

The bottle was opened normally with a perforated stopper. The aroma was grape-like and the carbonation was stimulating. It has a robust drinking experience that is unique to Takeyoshi. More robust than Kido Nigori, it is delicious.

After opening the bottle, the sake gradually opens up to a sweet and sour taste.

When poured into a glass, good aromas of strawberries and apples spread. The mouthfeel is calm, with a hint of sourness on the tongue and a light sweetness. The lingering acidity and umami after drinking are long. Even when lukewarm, the acidity stands up and the umami spreads in a mellow and delicious way. I still prefer the Araoshi merger and will buy more.

Hayaseura Bespoke Tokubetsu Junmai Nama Nama Sake November 19, 2023 Sake-no-Ten HAYASHI Hanpukai Directly pumped but mild both when opened and when poured. The nose is rich and viscous with hints of pear and alcohol. The acidity is prevalent and spreads quickly, and the sake seems to rush into the mouth like a big lump, and it is swallowed with great vigor. The lingering aftertaste on the nose is good, and the sharpness of the sake keeps you going with the next sip. The second half of the bottle is left at room temperature and drunk hot. As always with men's sake, it goes well with sashimi.
