My first Zanso Hourai.
Light, refreshing and fruity. I think I can keep drinking it all the time.

It's been a long time since I've had a chivalrous spirit.
Strong and thick umami followed by lingering acidity. It is a good sake with a deep flavor.

Sunday evening when my wife and daughter go out and I spend time alone. The smooth sweet and savory taste makes me feel rich in my alone time.

Gentle sake with a soft rice sweetness at the forefront. It seems to be able to be drunk all the time without any strong aroma or sourness.

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.

This is my first time to visit Mansyuusen. Omachi Junmai Ginjo Nama.
Good balance of soft sweetness, omachi umami, and a bit of spiciness.

Cho Oroku Unfiltered Junmai.
Yamabuki color as it is an aged sake from 2019. Rich and gutsy flavor. As expected of Oroku.

My first Hokkaido sake, Kamikawa Taisetsu.
It has a subtle aroma and a good balance of sweetness and spiciness.

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.

This is the first Wakakoma we purchased on a recent trip to Utsunomiya. It is an unfiltered unpasteurized sake with a 90% rice polishing ratio of Aizan.
It has a fruity aroma like apple, dry taste, and clear bitterness. It has no sweetness, so it is a sake that goes down easy.

Good evening, Akun 😃.
Welcome to Utsunomiya 🤗 First Wakakoma! Congratulations 🎉 It's a delicious sake 🍶 even though it's low milled 👍.

Thank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby. It is a sake that is not often seen in Tokyo, but it is delicious and dry with a sharp taste. If I find it, I will definitely repeat my purchase.

I have only ever bought No. 4 bottles because of my wife's reservations, but today is the fifth day since I first bought a bottle and drank it all.
I tried it at room temperature, cold, lukewarm, and hot, and found it to be delicious, with a refreshing yet delicious flavor with a subdued aroma. It is a great sake for everyday drinking, and I think it is even better than Hakurakusei.

My daughter, who became a working adult this spring and started living alone, came home temporarily this weekend. And dinner was her favorite, sukiyaki. Before dinner, I had my first Kangiku, which was a flying start for me. The alcohol content is low at 14 degrees, and the fizzy feeling is refreshing and easy to drink. It is an appropriate sake for the happy feeling I am having right now.

Yesterday was my mother's funeral. I offered a toast with my favorite Sharaku. Thank you very much for all you have done for me.

Soft, fresh, and slightly effervescent were the phrases on the bottle, and they were right.
The low alcohol content (13%) makes it easy to drink, and it's perfect to start drinking before dark on a holiday evening.

Today I went on a one-day business trip to Matsue. On the way home, I bought a bottle of Izumo Fuji Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki at Izumo Airport.
It has no strong characteristics, but it is well-balanced. It seems to go well with light-flavored simmered dishes.

Sharaku Junmai Ginjo Akaban Omachi Nama Sake
Melon aroma, fresh, crisp, sweet and delicious. I know it's good before I drink it lol.
When I was in Aizuwakamatsu on a business trip the other day, I went to see the brewery the morning before it opened, and it had a neat appearance.

It has a sourness unique to Yamahai, but it tastes light and refreshing, perhaps because of its 13% alcohol content. It seems that you can continue drinking it for a long time.

Kunmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki
Pair it with a dish of nodoguro tuna ajillo.
The acidity of Kuheiji enhances the flavor of the nodoguro.

My wife, who had been suffering from back pain for many years, was discharged from the hospital today after undergoing surgery for a herniated disc last week and came home. Then, we had a toast.
Perhaps because I was relieved, Sharaku Junmai Sake, which I often drink, seemed more mellow.

Nabeshima Junmai Ginjo Akaban Omachi Nama Sake
Dense umami, sweetness, acidity, and a slight tingling. I've been drinking only dry, refreshing sake lately, but this kind of sake is also good.
