Enjoy hiyaoroshi in conjunction with local autumn festivals! I thought it would be a summer festival, but it was so hot (high temp. 34°C) that I thought it would be a summer festival. But it was so hot (high temperature of 34 degrees Celsius) that I thought it would be a summer festival! I personally think it is the best summer sake, Yoshida Kurau's Night&Dance. I love the low alcohol content and the refreshing minerality! It's going to be hot for a while yet, so I'll be drinking this for dinner for a while!

I bought it again this year, attracted by the cute label of a cat cooling off in the evening during a heat wave. It's refreshing and you can drink it all the time. The slight bitterness that comes afterwards is also an accent 🍶. The label says, "Everyone who loves cats and sake is a good person. I'm a dog person. Like the cat on the label, I'm going to enjoy the cool of the evening while sipping slowly and leisurely with a side of fried burdock with sweet and spicy sauce ✨.

What do you mean by "evil"? and I bought it because of the naming and the cute little devil label design! Not too sweet, not too spicy, just the right balance. And the fruity feeling comes moderately. The side dish was a piece of guts of a basyo marlin with vinegared miso, which was given to me by a fisherman I know! Fisherman's rice that is hard to find 🐟. The fisherman told me, "You can't call yourself a 'sake drinker' if you don't drink sake with this. I'm trying it right away 🍶.

The last time I drank Hana Yuu's "Junmai Ginjo Omachi" was delicious, so next time I bought a different sake rice, "Junmai Rikuwada" 🍶. I had never heard of Rikuwada sake rice before, but I heard it is quite rare! The aroma was subdued, sweet and spicy at the same time, and I enjoyed the difference from the Omachi version ♫. The Omachi version was a great change in flavor after a few days in the fridge after opening the bottle, so I'm going to let this one sit in the fridge for a few days.

Hana Yuu, which I have been wanting to try for a long time. At a liquor store I often go to, When I heard that it was finally in stock, I went to buy it! I was surprised to find that everyone else at Sake-no-Wa was raving about it, It's delicious! The sweetness comes in a flash and goes away quickly. This feeling is so enjoyable that in no time at all the sake cup is empty 🍶. Rather than wondering what to serve with it, I would rather enjoy the taste of this sake on its own, unencumbered by other flavors. That's the kind of sake I want to enjoy by itself, unencumbered by other flavors.

Enjoying yakitori with my companion, I drink my first brand of yakitori, "The Great Order." The dish is described as having the flavor of white wine and lychee. The taste is not so refreshing, but the fruity taste comes forward (^^) Served with bonjiri and chicken thigh tataki

It's been a long time since Sogen's pure drunken innocence The word "Sogen" on the label is cool. As the name implies, "starting out with a pure and innocent heart", it is sometimes given as a housewarming or construction celebration in my hometown in Ishikawa Prefecture! I got this from a liquor store (lol). I drank it cooled to a crisp, and it was easy to drink with a distinctly refreshing taste. As it returns to room temperature, the spiciness gradually comes to the fore and this process is enjoyable ♫. I've aged to the point where I can no longer honestly say that it is pure and innocent, but as a person who is renewing my mind for a fresh start, this may be the perfect sake for me 🍶.

Chicara for a long time The semi-label is cute☆. The taste of malic acid, or perhaps it is the taste of the malic acid, is so refreshing that it doesn't interfere with the food. It fits the name of "Summer Jungin" perfectly! We had it with sauteed Spanish mackerel sautéed in butter and marinated red squid as a side dish! Mitsui no Kotobuki can be enjoyed again after a few days of drinking, so I look forward to opening the bottle every time.

The best sake I drank last year. It is no exaggeration to say that "Tedorigawa u Night&Dance" was the best sake I drank last year. I bought it because it was on sale again this year ♫ It's light and refreshing with low alcohol (al9), but you can still taste the Junmai Daiginjo-class flavor. The image of dancing on a summer night fits perfectly! Yakitori and sashimi of red squid were served as side dishes.

This drink is a tradition every summer! As the name suggests, I love the shwashy, slightly sweet fizzy taste ♥ When I sip it for the first time in a year, the taste comes back to my mouth every year. I love the way the taste comes back to my mouth after a year's absence.

When I think of the most delicious sake I've had in recent years, the first thing that comes to mind is "Yoshidagura u". As someone who also promotes the sake rice Hyakumangoku No Shiro, I buy this sake whenever I see it at the liquor store! I became even more of a fan last year after hearing the young president of the Yoshida Sake Brewery talk about his passion for sake brewing! The low alcohol content of 13% al makes it light on the palate and easy to drink! Menchikatsu (fried pork cutlets) is my favorite snack.

Toyo Bijin using Yamaguchi Prefecture's own sake rice, "Saito no Shizuku I originally love the taste of Toyo Bijin, but I feel that it has a little more rice sweetness than others. Is this a characteristic of Saito no Shizuku? I served it with simmered vegetables and fried chicken flavored with yuzu pepper as a snack (*^^*).

It's wrapped in newspaper, but that's the label✋a clear bottle wrapped in newspaper, with the product label on top of the newspaper for a unique look! I couldn't help but look twice at it at the liquor store (lol). The taste is moderately spicy with a fruity ginjo aroma. This is my first Ehime sake, but it's good.

When I traveled to Akita Prefecture in the past, the bus guide of the sightseeing bus I was on listed "Hiduyoshi" as his favorite brand. At the time, I was not that fond of sake, so I passed it up. When I stopped by a nearby liquor store, it was in stock, so I bought it on impulse (laugh). As the name suggests, this sake is made by mixing moromi with a blender to make it finer. It's like yogurt, but not too sweet, and the spiciness follows afterwards, making it easy to drink (^^) According to the liquor store People who are addicted to this sake will be repeaters for a long time. I can understand that.

I have been wanting to try Sanzen Sakura for a while. It is a Hokkaido sake and I was wondering when I would be able to drink it, but my local liquor store had it in stock. Limited edition sake made to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Asahikawa's "Peace Shopping Park," the nation's first pedestrian-only road. It's not Hokkaido where I live, but why was the limited edition sake in stock at my local liquor store? It's a mystery. lol The label design is by an illustrator who is active in Hokkaido... I like the Fujiko A Fujio-like illustration (^^) It has a refreshing taste with a melon-type flavor.

I bought this sake because it is rare to see Hokkaido sake in my hometown. I bought it last spring. Maybe that's why it was relatively cheap. Junmai Ginjo made from 100% Hokkaido rice called "Kitashizuku When you put it in your mouth, the sweet flavor comes first, but the spiciness comes later for a moment, and then it quickly wears off.
