あーくん
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.

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.

あーくん
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.

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.

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.

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

あーくん
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.

あーくん
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.
Japanese>English
ジェイ&ノビィ
Good evening, Akun 😃. Welcome to Utsunomiya 🤗 First Wakakoma! Congratulations 🎉 It's a delicious sake 🍶 even though it's low milled 👍.
Japanese>English
あーくん
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.

あーくん
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.

あーくん
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.

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.
