I was impressed with the Miyamanishiki Hi-Kiri that I had previously tasted, so I tried the nama-shu as well. It is fruity, sweet and delicious, but a little refreshing. It also seems to have more acidity. The hi-ire version seems more cohesive, but I personally prefer the nama-zake. It tasted good when it was first opened, but on the third day, it's not so good. The bitterness is getting much stronger. I think I would prefer the more stable fire-roasted version.

Ikoma Sake Shop Aizu Homare Tasting (2) Continued from ①. We drank Kitakata Terroir Junmai Ginjo Gohyakumangoku The atmosphere is similar to what we have had so far, but a little spicier. Aizu Homare Junmai Ginjo Fukunoka This one is also quite sweet and tasty. I've never seen this label before and thought it looked unusual. Aizu Homare Yozakura Junmai Ginjo This is said to be a spring sake. It has a classic flavor among the ones we drank this time. Classic but light! Lychee nigori sake The lychee flavor is in full bloom. I thought it would be hard to sell it because I think lychee is not to be liked or disliked. I like lychee myself 😘. Strawberry nigori sake I liked this one the best out of all the liqueurs. It's more strawberry than sake-like, and it's delicious! Chocolate Nigori It is very chocolatey, but it also has a strong alcoholic taste. I was so confused because there were so many sweet ones, but I bought the Fuku-no-Ka. I wondered if the brewer was from Fukushima, but it seems he is a resident of Tokyo. It seems that it was planned to coincide with an event at a department store in the Kansai region.

Ikoma Sake Shop Aizu Homare Tasting (1) The day after Harukas, we had a tasting of Aizu Homare at the nearby Ikoma Sake Shop! I didn't take notes, so I'm going to split this post into two parts because there were so many kinds of sake 😅. I drank Kitakata Terroir Junmai Ginjo Kitakata Yamadanishiki I think they called it Utsukushima Yume Yeast. It's pretty sweet and fresh tasting. Aizu Homare Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki I think they said 1801 yeast. Fruity and quite sweet. Sold out when I was there. Aizu Homare Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki from Banshu It tastes like a richer version of Junmai Ginjo. Kitakata Terroir Junmai Unfiltered Unrefined Genshu Yume no Kaori Fire-brewed but raw and muscat-like Aizu Homare Junmai Ginjo Yume no Kaori This is also fresh and sweet. I think it tastes similar to Karahashi. Yamadanishiki is the same, but the label is a bit similar too 🤔. Aizu Homare Yamadanishiki and Yume no Aroma are available only at two stores, a sake store in Saitama and Ikoma Sake Shop, since they were just released.

I thought it looked unusual and bought it at a business supermarket The Akita dog label is cute🐾. There was some lees in the bottom of the bottle, so I mixed it and poured it out. It was thin and cloudy, but no gassy feeling. It's a clear and fruity sake, but a little thin. I would like a little more umami 🤔. I also feel a little lactic acidity.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑭ Last but not least, Shojo, it's been a super long time since I've been to Shojo. I think it's been since we tasted it at Harukas in 2019 or so. According to Nemuchi's advance information, all of them are aged for one year this time! I drank Zendoiki Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Clean and a little fruity, with a sense of ripeness. Myodo-ki Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu It has just the right amount of sweetness, but also has a strong umami flavor. Gogo Onigami Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu It felt lighter on the palate, but not as sweet as the first two. Koukaku Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Forgot to take a picture💦. I bought and drank this in the past. I reviewed it as nutty back then, but this time it seemed pretty sweet and tasty. I think I drank some of the later demons too 🤔. I couldn't talk to the brewer because there were people there all the time talking 😅 There are many more breweries I haven't tried but that's it for this time!

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑬ ONKYO Booth I was curious about Kunimei, so I tried to drink it. They said they didn't prepare the one without music playing, so I couldn't compare... It was sweeter and a little more modern than the Junmai I've bought at Yodobashi in the past. I was surprised because I imagined it to be rough and dry. I don't know if it's the effect of the music or if it originally tastes like this 🤔.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ⑫ ONKYO Booth It was hard to find Miyoshikiku, so I asked for another sake, and the one that came up was Yamatan Masamune. I could clearly taste the difference. The one with music had a more rounded taste. I guess the vibration has the same effect as aging. I heard that he had them listen to music for about 6 months. I heard that the taste of alcohol submerged in the ocean also changes due to the effect of the waves, so vibrations do have an effect on alcohol 😳. Nice Masamune it was👍

Good evening bouken🌙 I've never heard of music mellowing the taste 😳this is like jazz, but I wonder if the taste changes depending on the genre of music you play 🤔that would be worth researching 😁. Anyway, nice Masamune👍😆.

Hello, Hiro-san. Do you have a speaker attached to the tank and the vibration makes it age better? I think it will change depending on the genre of music 🤔. I wonder what would happen if I let them listen to some heavy rock 🎸.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO10 A sales person who visited Icoma Sake Shop last year was there. We drank Josen Honjozo I already drink it at home, but they said it can also be heated, so we compared cold and heated sake! At home I drink it at room temperature, but it doesn't change much at any temperature, so I guess it's versatile? Matsu no Hana Junmai Sake Classic but easy to drink Shiboritate Honjozo Nama Sake I drank this at home a while ago and compared cold sake and heated sake. Surprisingly, the heated sake tasted better! Honjozo Nama-no-Harazake This one was quite robust, but had a delicious flavor. Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake I've bought and drank this in the past, but I tasted this one too. I was not as impressed with this one as some of the others I drank this time. Junmai Nama-nihonjyu Shiboritate Light Nigori I forgot to take a picture💦The label has changed, but it looks like I've had this one in the past. A little spicy? Matsu no Hana Junmai Ginjo Well, it tasted a little off-flavored and the taste was subtle... Matsunohana Daiginjo Fujiki Forgot to take a picture💦. Yamadanishiki with a 40% polished rice ratio. The taste is a little different from the others, probably because the rice is different. Tamakae is not suitable for high milling because it tends to crack when polished, so it seems to be Yamada-Nishiki. The salesman was very interesting and unique.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ⑨ Miyogiku, a brewery in the Kansai region but rarely had a chance to drink it. I drank Junmai Yamato What do you recommend? When I asked him, he said this is the first one. It seems to be a basic sake of the brewery. I imagined it to be a classic sake, but it is not so, and easy to drink. Relatively sweet Gohyakumangoku Junmai-Ginjo Nakadori Unfiltered Nama-Shu Gohyakumangoku Much sweeter and tastier than I imagined. Would have bought it if I had visited first 🤔. MIYORIKIKIKU Mizumoto Brewed with Nara Uruhashi Yeast I expected 🫶 since it's mizu-hashimoto, but it didn't impress me much... Hakusu Daiginjo It had a gorgeous ginjo aroma and rich taste! MIYOKIKU LIGHT Kijoshu Jungin Brewing It is a kijoshu but a little light. MIYOKIKU STRONG Kijoshu Jungin-brewed Alcohol 17%. I've had this one in the past. I don't know if this time it was a draft or not, but it tasted just as sweet and rich as the last time. They asked me which one was my favorite, the kijoshu or the kijoshu. I said STRONG 😁.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑧ Hyo-taiko, which is rarely seen outside of Kintetsu Department Store events We drank Hyo-Taiko Junmai Nama Nama Sake Akisakari I didn't know about this rice, so I asked about it and was told that it is edible rice from Tokushima Prefecture. It wasn't very sweet, but it had a good volume of flavor. Hyoho Taikoh Junmai Ginjo Namaishiki I didn't take a picture of it because I drank it in the past but I didn't buy it 😅I should have taken a picture 💦. This was my favorite of all the draft sake I had this time. Honor student type sweet and tasty sake. Hyoutaiko - Low-polished Junmai Namaishiki They wanted to offer a slightly different sake from the others. Sake with 80% polished rice and quite 🫶 with a complex flavor. Sake with a low-polished rice base This is the base of the low-polished raw sake, so we tasted this one as well. It is indeed a very peculiar sake. I felt it was suitable for warming up. Hyoho Taikoh Junmai Ginjo I liked this one the best because of its strong sweetness. When I told them I couldn't buy it because of my refrigerator, they said they would be coming to the basement in May for tasting and sales, so I thought I would remember to go and buy it!

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ⑦ Asahi Shuzo Brewery, where I couldn't help but stop to look at the unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake of Manju. I drank Kubota Manju Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu I have been wanting to try this sake since it was released. Unlike the hi-ire type, it was beautifully sweet and tasty! I hope it will be released during the year-end and New Year holidays. Kubota Manju Junmai Daiginjo No photo. The impression is the same as before: light, elegant and dry. A little weak after drinking unfiltered raw sake. Kubota Senju Ginjo Nama Nama Sake No photo because I bought it. I didn't expect much, but it was heavy, sweet and tasty, so I bought it 😋. The brewer told me that I bought a lot of sake in my basket, but I thought there were many more people who bought more than that 🤣. Are you okay? Do you want me to bring a cart? It was a little funny 🤣. Maybe I should have talked a little more 😁.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑥ I knew I had to go to Koshi Meikozo based on Nemuchi's advance information. It was always crowded, so I flew there as soon as it was open😅. I drank Motomasa Junmai Ginjyo Kameguchi Directly filtered raw sake No picture because I bought it. I didn't write it down, but it's a raw sake. Nemuchi-san recommended it. It was sweet and fruity and delicious. Koshinotsuru PREMIUM Junmai Sake - Takane Nishiki Unfiltered It is said to be dry, but it was not as dry as I expected, but fruity. The floral and acidity are impressive. Koshinotsuru PREMIUM Junmai Ginjo Nakadori Gohyakumangoku Transparent taste, but sweetness is also present. Koshinotsuru Tsuruhi Chishaku Yuki Activated Nigori Sake They said it was left over for the Harukas event. They said it was out of gas, but it was slightly effervescent with a trace of sweetness and a strong rice flavor. Koshinotsuru Bessen Normal Sake The cost performance is very good. Easy to drink. It's a regular sake, but it tastes great even when drunk cold. I also drank some other sake, such as Fukuro-hozuri and 21% rice polishing ratio, but I will not go into details because I was told that it is not allowed to upload on SNS 😌.

All of the Koshinotsuru PREMIUMs were fresh like raw sake. I was surprised at how different it was from Yamashiroya. Yamashiroya seems to be limited to outside Niigata Prefecture. The guy at the brewery talked a lot 😁. He was like a comedian from Kanto!

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑤. Kawazu Sake Brewery is often seen at events held at the Kintetsu Department Store. I thought, "Well, I've never tasted sake before," and went there. I have only tasted the fire-brewed Hanayuki in the past. I drank Hanayuki Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-shu I was curious about this one when I saw that there was a raw version. I liked it because it had an even richer sweetness than the hi-ire version. Junmai Unfiltered Hanayuki Ageha Sparkling It was delicious with no peculiarities and mainly sweetness, but I did not buy it because of the price and the stopper that looked difficult to open. Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu No sweetness at all, quite dry and crisp. Dry like Yamaboshi. Nama-hoshi-ishu, freshly squeezed and unpasteurized. I was curious about the use of rice I had never heard of called Akigeshiki. Is it Kumamoto's rice rice? It was quite sweet and tasty with a strong umami flavor. To be honest, I was wondering if this one would be okay too 😅😅 but I bought the Hanayuki. But I bought Hanayuki😅.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ④ We were not able to taste the sake at the Takashimaya event. Quite refreshing but tasted like muscat 😋. I also tasted Kizakura, which I already tasted at Takashimaya last year, and Shirayuki, which I already drank at home. The Kizakura was quite tasty with a strong flavor. Last year's review said the Kizakura was thin, but I guess I felt it was thicker this time because there were a lot of refreshing beers. It's a pity that I couldn't drink Yizuisuishin because it wasn't thawed.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ③. The sake brewery I was interested in was crowded all the time, so I gave up and went to an empty booth for frozen raw sake. Many of them I had already had, but I was allowed to taste all the thawed ones! We started with Haneda Sake Brewery's Hatsuhinode! I've had the unfrozen version before, but I don't remember much about it, so it was like drinking it for the first time! Well, it's a little bitter, isn't it? It's like cemedine. It felt pretty dry😅. When I drank Goshin after this, it felt sweeter. Maybe because it was after the first sunrise?

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO ② Mizuguchi Shuzo, a first time participant as well as Saka Shuzo I drank Nikitatsu Daiginjo at the Ogimachi Park event last year. Memory I drank Iyo's Awamozakura It had a clean and refreshing taste. I imagined it to be sweet, but it was light and dry. Junmai Ginjo Sakurahime Yeast Using Ehime's own flower yeast, Sakurahime yeast. It tastes sweet and fruity. The 4-unit bottle was sold out, so I bought a bottle of Zandesi. Hitotsu Daiginjo 35 I drank it at Ogimachi Park last year and it is still as gorgeous and delicious as ever! Nikitatsu 2024 Junmai Daiginjo I heard that this sake is made for overseas consumption with a rice polishing ratio of 30%. Gorgeous and absolutely delicious! They said it was a commemorative sake for the renewal of Dogo Onsen. NIKITATSU Daiginjo-genshu This sake is a raw sake version of Daiginjo 35, aged at a low temperature. Although it is a daiginjo, it has a strong umami flavor and is delicious! He said there are not many places in Kansai where you can buy Nikitatsu.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO① I visited the Sake Expo held at the Kintetsu Main Store in Abeno Harukas! First, let's start with Saka Sake Brewery, which Nemuchi scouted out for us. We drank Junmai Ginjo Nama They said it was so popular that there were only a few left. Slightly bitter taste. He said he recommended drinking it on the rocks. It was delicious, but I preferred the special junmai namae, so I bought that one. Special Junmai Nama No picture because I bought it💦. The Italian brewer recommended this one. It was fruity, sweet and delicious. When I told him I liked this one better, he said maybe he and I have similar senses 😁. She spoke really fluent Japanese! I wanted to talk with her some more, but there were quite a few people coming, so I moved on! If you want to see Kuraray's face, please check out Neemuchi's post 😌.

New brands handled by Icoma Sake Shop Fresh, slightly effervescent, sweet and delicious. Despite the label, the taste is quite modern. It has a bitter taste towards the end. The taste itself is comparable to popular brands. I would recommend it to people who like Hana 00. Personally, I think the label could be a little better 🤔. I had a chance to try some samples of Honshu Ichiban the other day, and there were a lot of fruity ones, so I'm looking forward to their future arrivals!

I drank Oeyama at an event at Keihan Department Store, but this is the first time I've ever had a draft sake. I saw it at Hanshin Department Store and bought it. It seems to be a sake brewed at Kagetsu, which also brews Kaga no Tsuki in Ishikawa Prefecture. The rice is 5,000,000goku and 1,000,000goku no shiro, and the rice polishing ratio is 50%, which is a daiginjo spec. It has a fresh, greenish mouthfeel with a sweet, gentle umami taste. The second half has a classic sake-like spiciness and alcohol. Sake with a sense of power.
