じじJunmai-shu by Sakura Masamune of Nada, the originator of Masamune. This bottle has a cute cherry blossom label, but as retro as it looks, it tastes a bit classic. It was better chilled. After a little while after opening the bottle, the taste calmed down and it became a soothing taste at room temperature. I heard that it is suitable for warming up, so I will try it next time.

水を編む-根本有機農園 haccoba 浪江醸造所

じじA bottle I got at the "NEW NEW SAKE WEEK" event at Newman Shinjuku. It was purchased from a brewer named haccoba in Namie, Fukushima Prefecture. When the bottle is opened, gas and oli float to the surface at once. It is said to be brewed with a kind of hop called Karakaso, so it is like drinking a juicy grapefruit. When you peel off the bottle exterior, a poem describing the countryside appears, making it a refreshing pop sake.

じじPurchased at a supermarket on the way out. At room temperature, the alcohol taste was not so strong, but when heated up, the taste became rounder and more pleasant. As it is a Toyama sake, it went well with yellowtail sashimi.

じじDrinking comparison at danchu festival. The brewer poured us a glass. As the name suggests, the taste was clean and refreshing, but Hitogokochi had a better acidity and tasted better. I thought, "I'll buy it next time! I looked up the price and found that it was at a premium everywhere, so it will be a while before I can drink it again.

kzsh1017Currently, there is not enough sake even in the state of limiting the number of bottles sold at the brewery to one.

じじThanks for the information, kzsh1037! It seems this was a more valuable opportunity than I thought.

kzsh1017That's right, in many cases, when they do come in, they are sold only to customers or with conditions. And then they are resold at outrageous prices.

じじThe Shirafuji Sake Brewery in Wajima was severely damaged, but they will continue to brew sake at the Yukawa Sake Brewery in neighboring Nagano Prefecture. This is a bottle brewed with pesticide-free rice. The first sip is a bit harsh on the throat, but the taste is refreshing. I felt it was suitable for a mealtime sake that goes well with Japanese food. After a few days after opening the bottle, the flavor becomes more rounded, and it is a real treat.

じじA bottle of Terada Honke's aspiration to create natural sake Purchased at the Kozaki Fermentation Festival It is a nigori sake, a blend of amazake and junmai sake. The taste is almost like amazake, but the junmai sake part has a smoky aftertaste due to the maniacal Bodai-hashiro method.

じじIn "Late Night Sake Review," an interesting sake essay by Seiko Yamauchi, a sake master of my heart, this bottle was introduced with unusual enthusiasm: "Local people drink a lot of this sake on a daily basis and make me drink it," "I want to prepare at least two bottles because I can drink it quickly," and so on. On a business trip to Gunma, I bought it at a convenience store in Takasaki, where it was normally sold. It is a man's sake! It is easy to drink with a fresh fruity taste, and I thought it could be a good choice for both men and women.

じじI bought it at a liquor store in Zao because it had an amazing presence! It was named after the fact that it broke the rule of fire-brewing. It has a strong alcohol taste like a pure sake, and I felt it was just right on the rocks.

じじSnow Man from Aoki Sake Brewery in Uonuma was served with curry rice on snowy Mt. Naturally, it was cold, so the sharp dryness stood out and was a perfect match with the curry (laugh).

じじHonjozo, Tanzawa Baka Ridge At YAMA CAFE in Okura, at the foot of Mt. The name is a common name for the Okura ridge at the foot of Mt. It was a refreshing and refreshing sake to relieve the fatigue of mountain climbing!
