Junmai Daiginjo Nigori Sake from Sudo Honke in Ibaraki Prefecture, founded in the 1100s and said to be the oldest sake brewery in Japan. It is brewed with local rice. I started drinking it in preparation for the Nadeshiko Japan game. It has a pleasantly crisp and fizzy taste with almost no sweetness. It matches my current mood on a holiday evening.

It is still light, but I taste Tomikunaga Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki while my wife and daughter are out. It has a gentle, round sweetness. It is a good and delicious sake.

We visited a sake brewery in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture, and bought a bottle of Junmai Sake after comparing the two. The sake is brewed using spring water from one of the 100 best springs in Japan. The sake, including the Junmai Daiginjo, is basically dry with a touch of acidity. It tastes better warmed than cold.

Tasted a Junmai Daiginjo from Fukui Prefecture's Hakugakusen that I happened to purchase. It is made only from Gohyakumangoku grapes grown in Fukui Prefecture. The soft acidity is followed by a refreshing spiciness. I had never heard of the name, but it is an elegant tasting sake.

I received a wooden box of Kamotsuru and took my time at home. The aroma is subdued, and the sake is polished to 32%, so it has a clear and elegant sweetness that cuts through. It is a beautiful sake.

Yesterday, during a visit to Utsunomiya, I bought my first Chuaiai at a liquor store near the station. Contrary to the impression of the burly label, it has a gentle, almost feminine, sweetness of rice. This is a delicious sake.

Hi, ah-kun 😃. Welcome to Utsunomiya 🤗Congratulations on your first chuai ㊗️ 🎉I've never had chuai here but it looks delicious 😋.

Jay & Nobby, thank you for your comments. It took me a while to notice. Every time I go to Utsunomiya, I buy Tochigi sake at M Sake Shop near the station. Tochigi prefecture has many unique and good sake. I am envious.

The first "Raifuku" super dry sake. It was served in a Nosaku sake cup given to me as a gift for the inauguration of the president of a business partner. It is true that there is almost no sweetness. Perhaps it is because of the thicker mouth of the sake cup, but I feel the taste is stronger.

I bought Abe-kan again in Tokyo after enjoying it at a dinner in Sendai on a business trip. It is a good sake with a clear, spicy taste that wears off.

On my way back from a business trip to Matsuyama, I bought a bottle of Ehime sake at Matsuyama Airport. So I bought a bottle of Ishizuchi Junmai Daiginjo. It has a beautiful sweet taste that quickly wears off. It is a good sake that reminds me of the gentle tropical sunshine.

At Izumo Airport, where I stopped on a business trip, I tasted Izumo Fuji Junmai Ginjo, which was sold only in the Izumo area. It is a gentle sake with a modest aroma and sweetness that can be drunk all the time.

On a business trip, I was attracted by the phrase "Ponshukan limited edition" and bought it at Nagaoka Station. I imagined it to be a light, dry Niigata-style sake, but it was unexpectedly fruity and sweet. Encounters like this are one of the pleasures of business trips.

This is the first daily brew. It has the same fizziness as Sawaya Matsumoto, where HIDEHIKO MATSUMOTO used to be. The sweetness is clearer and tastier. Easy to drink at 13% alcohol by volume. This is a good sake.

Tasting Kinsho, which was recommended to me the other day because it is the only sake brewery in the city and was purchased at the product center at the west exit of Fukushima Station. Perhaps because it is brewed by a female president, it has a gentle taste with a hint of rice sweetness.
