Urakasumi特別純米酒

Sara Miyagi

じじ

I drank a glass of sake in the evening, feeling down after being hit by the big plunge. I bought a bottle of Urakasumi, which I bought at a closing sale at a nearby convenience store, and drank it cold. But it is a famous sake from Shiogama, and it is not bad. It is a refreshing sake with a hint of sweetness, and I thought it was a good food sake. It has a light but not thin taste. It is a rare Sasanishiki sake. The rice is not good, and I wonder if the price of sake will go up. Rice: Sasanishiki produced in Miyagi Prefecture Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 15%.

Okunoto no shiragiku純米吟醸（湯川酒造代行醸造）

Hakuto Shuzoten Ishikawa

じじ

Shirafuji Sake Brewery is located in Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture. The Noto Peninsula earthquake caused severe damage to the brewery, but the rice for the sake was safe and sound, so the Yukawa Brewery in Kiso took custody of the rice and brewed the sake on behalf of the brewery. The sake was brewed jointly with Shirafuji Sake Brewery, a product of Ishikawa meets Nagano. I compared it cold and at room temperature, and I felt that the rich acidity and umami of this sake could be tasted better at room temperature. It is a slow-opening type of sake. Rice: 64% Gohyakumangoku, 36% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol content: 15%.

Roman純米吟醸　一回火入れ

Hanaizumi Shuzo Fukushima

じじ

Made by the Hanaizumi Sake Brewery in Aizu, Fukushima. The word "romance" dances on the golden label. The brewery uses a four-stage glutinous rice brewing method, in which glutinous rice is used in addition to the normal brewing process. The sake is made with Aizu rice, yeast, and craftsmanship, which is the romance of sake brewing. I put it in a cool bag and drank it outside over the weekend. It was not too sweet, but had a refreshing flavor, and I couldn't help but drink too much of it. Rice: Koji rice / Gohyakumangoku Kake rice / Yumenokou 　　　　　Yondan rice／Himenomochi Polishing ratio: 55 Yeast: Utsukushima Yume Yeast Alcohol content: 15%.

Kyokuho Shuzo Hiroshima

じじ

Obtained from a liquor store we pioneered in our neighborhood. Hiroshima's Asahiho Shuzo was founded in the Keio period. Its representative brand is Kyokuho, but a new brand started by a young 7th generation brewer is called Urin. The label depicts a crow and a circle, and the word "Urin" itself is said to represent the sun. Since it is a draft sake, it is served well chilled. It has a slightly greenish taste reminiscent of cucumber, which I thought was suitable for summer. I drank it in a flutter and ended up opening almost half of the bottle (too much)! Rice: Hachitan-Nishiki Rice polishing ratio: 80 Alcohol content: 17

Gifu's Watanabe Sake Brewery is known for its "Hida no Dobu" and "Irootoko. Every year in March, they invite Yoshimoto and hold a grand opening of the brewery, and the bottles of sake that were served at the festival were found at a local supermarket, so we protected them. I found a bottle of sake bottles that were served at the festival washed up at a local supermarket, so I protected it. It has a sweet and bitter flavor that I don't dislike. 19 degrees, so it might go well in an icebox. Rice: Hidahomare Rice polishing ratio: 68 Sake meter: -2 Acidity: 1.8 Alcohol content: 19%.

This bottle is from Yamaguchi Shuzo, a long-established sake brewery in Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture. I bought it because of its cute retro label with a Japanese bush warbler on it. The refreshing sweet and sour taste is like Calpis for adults. On a hot day like this, it is best served chilled. I can imagine how it would be like if you put ginger in it to make it more like a chilled candy. It is also a good idea to add ginger to it to make it more like a chilled candy.

This local sake is produced in Yoshino, Nara Prefecture, famous for its cherry blossoms, by the Kitamura Sake Brewery. Gin-no-sato is a member of the Yamadanishiki family of sake rice, and the rice used for this sake is from Yoshino. I first tried it on the rocks because it is a pure sake, but this was a bit of a mistake as it is not spicy. It has a sweetness that is not too sweet and a firm umami flavor, so it is best served at room temperature.

This is a long-selling junmai sake for plum wine made with locally produced rice. Compared to making white liquor, only half the amount of glacial sugar is needed, so we pickle one kilogram of plums and 500 grams of glacial sugar to one kilogram of Fukyu-nishiki. I tasted a little bit of the original sake while I was making it, and it was a delicious sake with a deliciously bitter taste. We are looking forward to seeing the finished product in half a year!

This is a bottle with a surprisingly good sense of naming that makes the word "comet" read "sha". It is a product of the Endo Sake Brewery in Suzaka, Shinshu. The brewery's website says only that it is as impressive as a comet! It is probably a reference to Char Aznable, the Red Comet, but it is too early to say. I had been curious about this sake for a long time, so I picked it up at the sake corner of Bic Camera Shinjuku West Exit Store. The refreshing acidity is a modern taste. It is fruity and easy to drink, and I could drink it three times as much as usual. Alcohol content: 15%.

One of the 2018 brewing at the time of the release of the movie "In This Corner of the World". The film depicts the life of Suzu-san, who came to marry in the wartime military port city of Kure. I remember seeing it for the first time in the movie theater and was hit by a wave of emotion that cannot be described in words of emotion, and it dragged me back to the point of going to see it again a week later. It has aged well over the past 6 years and has turned into a sweet, rich, mellow beer. Miyake Honten, which brews Senpuku, is a sake brewery in Kure, Hiroshima Prefecture, where the film is set. The company was in charge of brewing sake for the Imperial Navy's naval vessels, and for a time before World War II, it was the largest sake brewery in Japan in terms of production, earning it the title of "King of Sake. This sake is a drink that brings back memories and history. Rice polishing ratio: 60 Rice used: Senbon-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture Alcohol content: 16.5%.

Taisetsukei Brewery is located in Azumino, Shinshu. It is a very alpine sake brewery that takes its name from the Hakuba Daisetsuekei mountain range and advocates "mountain sake. This product bears the name of Mt. It has an apple-like ginjo aroma, a characteristic of the Alpine yeast born in Nagano. It is sweet, fruity, and easy to drink, but because it is a pure sake, you will find yourself getting drunk before you know it, making it a bit of a dangerous drink.

The name "Asakai" is said to be derived from the name of a boat that the founder, a samurai from the Nanbu domain, used to row early in the morning when he quit his job as a samurai and started brewing sake. I bought a small bottle with a beautiful design of the character for "iwa," which means "rock" in Japanese. It had a sweet and bitter taste that spread gradually and gently.

Thank you Jay & Nobby and Eririn for your comments. As you pointed out, this is the Dragon Eye in Hachimantai, Iwate! It seems that the eye opened earlier than usual, perhaps due to global warming.
