I found myself sleeping for a year. Here it is. This is a sake rice called Jinriki. I have never heard of it. The aroma is modest. It has a cold aroma that gives off a bit of a twang. It goes in smoothly, with a slight acidity, sweetness, and a feeling of aftertaste. The spiciness spreads in the mouth. The aftertaste is also pungent, but not to the point of braking. It is an excellent food sake. The acidity is restrained for a Koei Kiku sake. This may be due to the characteristics of the sake rice.

It's Golden Week. I want to drink something that strikes my fancy! That's why I chose this sake. It's been a long time since I've had this sake. It is Miyamanishiki. It is Miyamanishiki, but It has an aroma right after the bottle is opened. Ah, ah, it doesn't betray you. The aroma is a little lactic acid. No, it is a perfect lactic acidity. The sweetness that spreads softly in the mouth is just as expected. The lingering aftertaste is a refreshing bitterness. Can we say that it is a typical Miyamanishiki sake? It is not too sweet for a hanayoshoku. But it is good. It is still good. I can't believe I've already drunk this much! It is a sake that says, "I've already drunk this much!

I went to an izakaya that has sake from all 47 prefectures. Then, I knew I had to have a sake from a prefecture I haven't had before! Yes, Miyazaki Prefecture. We were served a sake from Miyazaki Prefecture, which is not easy to find. It has a modest aroma and a slight rice flavor. A slight sense of rice. When I sipped it, I could feel the same rice flavor in a refreshing way. I was already moderately drunk, so I don't remember much. I was already moderately drunk, so I don't remember much, but the above impression is all I have left. I don't know if I like it or not.

Gunma's Kitchen Sake (sorry, I'm saying it as I please), This is "Hijirizumu" (I'm sorry, I just say it as I like it). This sake has a name I don't understand, like hijirizumu. It is very cloudy. And beware of fizzing. It did not betray my expectations, When we opened the bottle, it blew out. It was the right decision to open it in the sink. But it was a waste because it overflowed! Wow! Great gas! It's so shwashy. It's full of lactic acidity. Yogurt? Is this a Christmas version of No. 6? That's my impression. Too much gas on the first day. On the second day, it calmed down a little (but still strong). I could taste it. And if you look closely, you can see the following The alcohol content is 5°. (°д°)! That's a bit too low for my taste. This is the first drink of the party.

Sarah with a slightly different atmosphere. I wouldn't notice if it weren't for the diagonal cut decoration. No, I wouldn't recognize it even if it was there. A little bit expensive Sarah. I was worried because I didn't like the expensive Sarah at the end of the year, but I was afraid I would regret if I didn't drink it, so I decided to buy it! LOL! The aroma is weak. It is like trying hard to sniff out the twang and milky feeling in a weak one. Gentle on the palate. Slightly gassy. Next comes the lactic acidity, Then the lactic acidity comes next, and then the sharpness. There are too many "sensations. Can't you describe it better (I don't have enough vocabulary)? Overall, it is refreshing. It is also full-bodied. It's my favorite brand, so I'd rate it harshly. One more step. Sorry, it's just my taste. It is a good one that can be drunk easily.

I want to drink a definite drink today. That's why I chose this one. The word "Itaru" is a little sparkling. It looks like it is a draft sake. Oh! The aroma is perfect right after opening the bottle. Oh, thank goodness! The aroma is a little bit nasally. And the mouthfeel is soft. The mouthfeel is soft. Sweetness spreads In the mouth. Then the pungency of 17 degrees alcohol spreads in the mouth. Tingling. It's a nice design that doesn't stop at sweet. Well, I knew. I knew it was my kind of sake. But I'm so thankful that it doesn't betray that. It's nice.

They said it was a new brewery handled by a liquor store. The owner's silent pressure got the better of me and I bought it. The label is stylish. The sake rice is 100% Ginotome. I had never heard of this sake rice. There are so many different sake rice varieties these days that I can't remember them all lol. The aroma is weak, with a trace of sweetness. Good mouthfeel, Some sweetness. Then bitterness spreads in the mouth and it finishes. It is light. It is not my favorite, but it is easy to drink, But it is easy to drink.

I'm going to Tokushima, what kind of sake would you like? He asked me what kind of sake I would like. I said, "I want something sweet. I said, "I'd like a sweet one. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The name is very straightforward. The aroma is like alcohol. The mouthfeel is sweet, but not too strong. Then, it has a pungent alcohol taste. I thought it was easy to drink, and when I drank it, I fell asleep. I fell asleep. The alcohol content was 20 percent! The alcohol content does not lie.

When I find them, I buy them before I think about it. It has become such a brand name. Kangiku. Yamadanishiki and Omachi. Well, what do you think? Open the bottle! Nuh! Nuh-uh! What is it? This aroma! Citrusy! Is this the aroma of sake? It smells gassy, like unfiltered raw sake. But it is moderate. The sweetness spreads in the mouth, and the lingering aftertaste is a bitter Oumachi-like flavor. Sweet but refreshing. Easy to drink. It's good. This is good. But the aroma is the best. You can smell it all the time!

They sell out quickly. Chrysanthemum. Moreover, it is Aizan. The labels are as beautiful as ever. Since today is our wedding anniversary(?) Let's open this one. It smells so good from the moment I open it! Oh, I can only hope! But the aroma is not so strong from the glass. I wonder if my nose has already been attacked. But it is a sweet aroma. And it has a good gasiness. It has a sweet mouthfeel. The aftertaste is also sweet. This is a perfect match. It's very nice.

I went to a liquor store and the brewer was there. This is a Buy it! I was told to buy it. He explained it to me in detail. I had no choice but to buy it. I bought this sake, which I was told was the most recent one. It is labeled "dry". The aroma is like... lactic acidity with a touch of alcohol added. I took a sip and wondered if it was spicy. It was a little sweet? After that, the spiciness of the alcohol taste spreads in the mouth. Not bad! The alcohol content is high, but I have the impression that it is not that strong. It is not my favorite, but it is not bad (for the second time). It is surprisingly easy to drink.

I think this might be the first time I've ever had a Risshun Shibori. I wasn't really interested in it. And I don't know why they squeeze it in Risshun. Sorry, it's an ancient custom. Senkinka - it must have a sour taste. I thought, and opened the bottle. Hmmm? What is this? ......... Water! Are you drunk? Me. It's watery when it's perfectly chilled. If you let it sit for a week, you can taste the sourness even if it's perfectly chilled. Yes, it's like Senkin. If you let it sit for two weeks... Yeah, it's ready to drink, isn't it? I think it's right to drink it right away because it's a pure sake, but for me, it was ready to drink after two weeks. I guess there are many different kinds of sake because tastes differ from person to person.

This is my first brand. Waka Ebisu? How do you read that? Waka Ebisu! I asked the liquor store owner to tell me. This was the most popular brand at this liquor store. This brand name. So I bought it. The aroma is 100 points! It has a sweet aroma that I like. When you sip it... it's sweet... but not too sweet. Not too sweet. It snaps right away. It has a grippy feel to it, and it's sharp. It's not my favorite, but it's easy to drink. It seems to be good as a food sake. I would like to try other brands.

Rum. It's a collaboration. I thought it was just this one, but they came out one after another. Collaboration? The price is expensive. The sake rice is 100% Kitakata-produced Yume-no-Kou. The aroma has a sharp alcohol taste. Nuh! Is this a bad one? Gulp! Huh? Oh, maaaay! It's so sweet. It's low-alcohol (13%), so you can drink it smoothly. It might be okay as a collaboration product. It seems to be okay even for those who bought it for the sake of Rum-chan. It was a little too sweet, but it was easy to drink.

Nagi-Spring Misty 100% Omachi This seems to be the only one of the orikara varieties of Kangiku. I didn't know that. So I bought it without a second thought. It has a sweet aroma. But it is modest. It is gentle on the palate, but the gas comes soon. Not that strong, but strong enough for me. I prefer it on the second day. I prefer the second day. If you don't entwine oli, it's refreshing. When you mix it with oli, it becomes full-bodied. The second day when it is mixed with the oli is the best time for me to drink it. The aftertaste is not so long and not too strong. It is just right. It is a good one that I like.

This is my first time. The label on the back says "extra" and "legit". Is it legitimate even though it is "extra"? I am not sure. The label smells like a kitchen (rude!). I'm not sure if it's a "legitimate" label or not. And the other brands are labeled only with a mark. It's cool, but I still feel the kitchen (sorry for repeating this). The aroma is neither too strong nor too weak. The aroma is not too sweet. But it has a nice mouthfeel! And the moderate sweetness spreads in the mouth. With a slight gassy feeling. And a not too long aftertaste. Oh my! It's good! Sorry for calling it "kitchen"! I'd like to try other brands of this one. The challenge succeeded!

This is the first sake opened in 2023. Since I opened several bottles at the end of last year without finishing them, I drank them during the New Year's holidays, so this is the first opening of the new year, albeit a little late. Since it was so late, I opened it for the first time. So we decided on this one! The bottle cost me a lot of money! LOL! Well, here we go! Now it's time to open the bottle! The aroma comes out. Is it sweet for a moment? But the aroma is a bit alcoholic. When you take a sip, it is soft and mild. The sweetness spreads, but soon changes to a spiciness derived from the alcohol. The sharpness is good. It is not my favorite, but I think it is good as a food sake. I hope it will be another delicious sake this year. I've been drinking since the end of the year, so I need to take a day off from drinking! But I'm still drinking today.

This is the last drink of 2022. And the first camp sake in a long time. The place is Kujukuri (I didn't ask). It's Sairai's premium sake! It's golden! I think the direction of the slant is different from usual. It's such a premium sake. The expectations are so high. Let's open the bottle. The aroma is surprisingly subdued. The mouthfeel is gentle and not too sweet. The lingering aftertaste is smooth and fades away quickly. ... ...... ......... Hmmm... I don't know, it's not enough. Is it because my expectations were too high? It's different from the usual Sairai. No, that's because it's premium! It's just that... It's just that! This is my personal opinion. I can't say...that I like it. Yes it is! Maybe it was too cold because it was winter camp! Yes, I'm sure it was. I put it down for a bit, but it was unfiltered raw sake, so that didn't make sense either. It is just a matter of taste.

I was patient and laid it down for a year (2021). Then I managed to get this year's bottle (2022). There was only one bottle left, but I wanted to compare them, so I bought it without hesitation (well, I hesitated a little). The aroma was oh...nice. If anything, 2021 is stronger (others said 2022 was stronger. I have a stupid nose too?) I think 2021 is stronger than 2022. The sweetness spreads in the mouth with good mouthfeel. The 2022 has a gassy feeling, while the other has a very slight gassy feeling. I see that the gassiness is reduced to this level in one year. Other than that, it is almost the same. It is amazing. Isn't it an amazing technology to be able to make the same flavor? Then, I noticed something. This is origami. But this impression was superlative! Let's write something involving additional ori.

The second glass was properly mixed with Ori. The 2021 does not seem to have much of an oriental flavor, but the 2022 has a perfect oriental flavor! The color! But the flavors are both fuller and richer. Yum! Wonderful!
