常に初陣
The first Mie sake that tastes good with everything, Tianyurin. The navy blue label is a refreshing summer sake. Herbal aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will be pleasantly surprised by the softly wafting acidity! It is fruity and very easy to drink, with little harshness or pungency. I drank it in a wine glass that I just purchased, so the refreshing aroma was more noticeable than usual. It is a versatile sake that goes with everything. Pairing: Sashimi with condiments, salmon with avocado, cheese with shiso leaves, fried corn and taro

My first Oita sake, Chiebijin. First time, but behind the scenes! Sweet aroma like pineapple and melon. Slightly effervescent! Like a rice champagne. It tastes firmly of rice. It is fruity but not too sweet. Since it has a bit of a sweetness to it, it goes well with meat, but it also goes well with cheese! I opened a bottle in no time. I would like to try the Chiebijin that is not backed up. Pairings: Beef grilled with sansho (Japanese pepper), tuna and asparagus salad, prosciutto ham and arugula salad, chicken in oil

It's been a long time since I've had a cold chrysanthemum. This is the first time for me to drink True White and I was looking forward to it. I had bought it 2 months ago, but finally opened it on this consecutive holiday. Refreshing aroma of citrus fruits. It has a tangy, slightly effervescent taste with a refreshing acidity and fruity flavor that feels like a summer sake. It is easy to drink with a slight bitterness at the end. It was my very favorite sake! Pairing: Negitoro, caprese, grilled yam, corn and edamame kakiage, char-grilled chicken, homemade soba noodles

This is my first time at Ganki. I asked the sake shop to select a sake that would go well with the eel. The aroma was like a young melon. When you take a sip, you will be surprised at the acidity! It has a sweetness, but the spiciness that passes through the nose is pleasant. It is a sake that is both light and dry, and has a delicious umami taste. I like it very much! It went well with the sweet and spicy sauce of eel and wasabi. Pairing: eel, umaki, grilled eel liver, corn

Tamitsu after a long time. Summer boulleu is perfect for a hot day. Boulleu means "nigori" in Japanese. It has a gorgeous citrus aroma. Refreshing mouthfeel, just like a summer sake! No peculiarities at all, and a perfect balance of sourness and sweetness. This sake goes well with both sour and cheese snacks. It is a summer sake, but even I, who do not like summer sake, could enjoy drinking it. Pairing: Carpaccio, Yellowtail with spices, Caprese, Corn

My first Shikishima! I have been curious about this sake from Aichi for a while. Tropical aroma like mango. When you take a sip, you can feel the tanginess on your tongue. It has a mellow, umami mouthfeel that clings to the palate. It has bitterness, but it is smooth and crisp. It is easy to drink despite its high alcohol content of 18 degrees. Since it is made in Handa City, it seems to go well with fermented foods such as miso and vinegar. Pairing: Chilled Shabu-Namero, eggplant and cheese, strips of yam

This is my first Senkou Kabuto Kabuto! I was lucky enough to find and capture it at my favorite liquor store. The aroma is fresh and lemony. Surprisingly, it has a strong acidity in the mouth! It makes you wonder how this is made from rice. It is low-alcoholic and smooth, and seems to go well with oysters. It is a sake that is hard to find, so I am glad I had a chance to try it. Pairing: Salmon, sesame paste, mackerel, horse mackerel tataki, rolled egg

First time in Urasato! This is my first sake from Ibaraki. The starry sky label is very nice, as Tsukuba is the closest city to space. The aroma is mild.

This is my first time to try Bikyuu. When it comes to Kochi sake, it is dry, isn't it? Gentle aroma of rice. It is spicy, but the refreshing acidity is impressive. Perhaps because it is a summer sake, it is light and the aftertaste is not harsh at all, making it easy to drink. Pairing: Bonito tataki, Inari sushi with soybean raccoon, sesame tofu, rolled egg

Yokoyama Goju after a long time. This time in black! Melon-like sweet aroma. Slightly effervescent and sour. Juicy sweetness spreads.

Hiroshima's Baochien was recommended to me at the liquor store. I have had red and black sake before, but this time it was a white Junmai sake. The aroma is slightly sour. The mouthfeel is as light as water. But it is spicy! And with a refreshing aftertaste, it is very easy to drink. Since we are in Hiroshima, it went well with oyster tsukudani (food boiled down in soy sauce), which we carefully saved! Pairing: Grilled yellowtail with salt, oyster tsukudani, fried edamame shrimp

Finally, we have a bottle of Jyushiyo at home! Today, the bottle was opened with full anticipation. The aroma is gorgeous when you open the lid. The mouthfeel is soft and clear.
