This series was recommended by the people of Fukui Prefecture. The fact that this sake is loved by the locals gives you a sense of security even before you drink it. Although it claims to be dry, it has a gentle dryness, or rather, a rather mild taste, almost like a medium mouthfeel. On the other hand, it has a clean and sharp taste, and the aftertaste disappears easily without leaving any unpleasant aftertaste. This may be the secret to its long-lasting popularity. I drank a lot of sake this time, and it ran out quickly. My body must have been craving for Ippongi... Thank you very much for the food.

I found another great sake ♫ I want to say, "I found another great sake! It is a fresh, fruity, and quite sweet sake. The subtle petitiveness just before the slight foaming sensation is very enticing to the palate. And the alcohol content is 19%, so you get a big thump right after drinking it! We're all going to have a good time getting drunk today! and opened a bottle of this one, and we all toasted with glasses full of it! Let's go drink it up! I thought to myself, "If I could do this with ......... when I was in my late 20s or early 30s, it would be a happy party...". I've heard that there are a lot of sake in Nagano (not just wine), and I think it has high potential. The peaceful scenery of Kawakami-cho in Minamisaku-gun is one of my precious things. I'd love to drink there again.

This time I drank a ginjo-shu from Shizuoka Prefecture. It was a beautiful sake with a fruity-fruity aroma and rice flavor, although it was a bit old. I guess it is because of the location, and the water they use also contains a lot of richness of nature. I can't explain it well, but it has a very pleasant hard-water texture that the Japanese like. That's what Shizuoka is all about! I would love to visit a sake brewery when I am in the area.

I have an indescribable longing for Saga and Nagasaki prefectures. I sometimes go to Kurume for work, but the scenery I see in front of the station or driving along the river, well, it's not that peculiar. I don't know why I have this impression, but I feel like it's a "hidden prefecture". This product is a top choice that does not betray my impression. The sweetness and spiciness is a little sweet, almost normal. It tastes like clean water with carefully dissolved white sugar. Very refreshing! I would recommend it if you find it in a bar! I poured more than usual and guzzled it down. I would like to drink 2 to 3 more bottles.

I acquired this ginjo-shu by chance, but it was overshadowed by the overly delicious Matsu no Tsukasa that I had drunk a bottle of before, and I finished it without grasping its appeal. I clearly remember that it only tasted like a sake from Hyogo Prefecture.

A wonderful junmai ginjo for the festive New Year! Beyond fruity, tropical! A great New Year has arrived! However, I bought it mistaking 1800 for 720. The shock of the taste on the opening day will not be forgotten for the time being... Although I was excited this time, I also wanted to try the standard sake of Matsuse Sake Brewery.

This is Kyoto's sake! From the moment you drink it, you will say, "Refreshing! Sukkiri!" and it flows down the back of the throat while singing The back of the mouth sings, "Rice! Rice! Kire! Kire!" and disappeared into my stomach. They say that the taste is a description of the taste and not a word, but it is rare that words trickle in with the taste. From the third day after opening the bottle, the taste became slightly milder and more homey. Kinki region sake continues to not be my best, but it was a delicious learning experience.

Ichinokura sweet sake from Miyagi. Sweet! So I tried it. It is a sweet taste based on Ichinokura's taste. It is quite good! If I had to say so, I would say that while it is unscreened and reasonably priced, it tastes a bit bland. However, there is a clear standard, and I think it is good for sake marketing to have a playful spirit to offer such a different type of sake that deviates from that standard. I enjoyed it.

I can assure you that it is a great sake for sake beginners and light users like myself. Because of this refreshing drinking experience, the sweet and light residual aroma, and the ability to reset itself after the second glass of deliciousness! A model of sake! My recommendation! The name and taste are as good as the atmosphere of the rice, the stylish bottle with a very high fighting power, and the appearance that convinces even me, a Niigata Niigata noisy person! If all the izakayas put Kozen Josui on the table, it might take Otter's job. (These are just the drunken impressions of an amateur.) No wonder the price of this wine never goes down, even on the Mercury market! Please come to my house again!

Actually, I already drank a bottle and this is my second one. Why I didn't write about it last time is because I didn't know what to write about. Even I myself asked myself, "Why?" I have no idea how to express myself. Last night, I finished my second bottle and realized. It has no peculiar taste. I can say that the Ishiyo Nihonkai, which I posted before, has a typical peculiar taste. Houou Seitoku can be said to have no peculiar taste. They are both enjoyable and delicious! This is a ridiculously boring opinion piece.

Ichinokura is a sake that I consider to be representative of Miyagi Prefecture. Whenever I drink with people from there, it always comes up early on. Some of them say, "I can only buy a limited-edition sake called Shouzumi there, and I always buy it every time I go there! There is also a person who says, "I can only buy a limited edition sake called Shouko there. There must be a lot of fans. Although it is said to be dry, it is not that sharp, and has a slightly above-medium mouthfeel. The dryness is so exquisite that it resets the inside of the mouth and brain every 10 minutes or so, so you can't help but have a second serving. When I opened the bottle, I did not expect it to run down so fast. It made me realize that there are many different types of dry sake, and that you can't judge a sake by its description or preconceived notions. I must try it for myself. Please come to our house again!

It is the image of the sake that grandpa brings out every night at grandpa's house in the countryside. It is not the seasoning or brewing that is popular in 2022, but rather a classic or old school style. It's more like an everyday bottle that is gentle, nostalgic, and reassuring. In winter, warm it up. The aroma is exactly what you would expect from a sake without heating it up. Not too sweet, not too spicy. I won't repeat it, but I learned a lot from it.

Fukushima Aizu has such good sake. Fukushima produces such good rice. I know I talk about Niigata-Niigata, but Fukushima is also a rice-producing region. (I thought it looked delicious from the design of the label, but I was right!) Sweet and light, with a strong fruity aroma and no bitterness after drinking. So I tend to drink more of it... I'll be back for more.

No, no, no, this is amazing. It's sparkling wine, not sake. Melon squash! Apple squash! Lemon squash! I'm sure it will be very popular if you bring it to a gathering of friends. The bottle is stylish and the taste is very casual. Don't drink too much. I'm thinking about ordering some more. However, when I stored the bottle on its side, it leaked overnight, probably because of the micro-firing.

Toyama's sake was also amazing. Phantom Taki. It has a Niigata-style base, which I like, but the sweetness is moderate and the freshness stands out. The sweetness was also surprising with a subtle almond-like aroma. Toyama is a great place! I couldn't help but mutter to myself. And the alcohol taste after going down the throat is gentle and characteristic, as if it had been designed on purpose. (I can't describe this part well, so I need to practice.) I am looking forward to drinking it again tonight. I want to drink it again after I finish it! It is an excellent sake that will remain in your memory even after you finish it.

One of the recommendations from a native of Fukui Prefecture. I was excited to try Junmai Daiginjo! I was excited, but But it was an old sake with an old production date, and its color was amber (laugh). But it was still tasty enough, refreshing and luscious. It was still delicious, yet refreshing and luscious, with absolutely no alcohol feeling after going down the throat, which I can only say is a true feat. It has also been aged to give it a rich, honey-like flavor with additional sweetness and fullness. I finished the bottle with a renewed determination to get a fresh one next time.

Kenbishi. You can buy Kembishi anywhere at a reasonable price. I finally drank it. It's sake, but it's like Shaoxing sake. What is this mellowness? It has a sense of maturity like a brandy. And the aftertaste is sake. It's not that it imitates anything, but the commonality is a sign of sophistication and maturity. It has a sweet mouthfeel, but it quickly cools down. It has a strong sake-like taste and is slightly prone to alcohol abuse. If I had been born there, I would have liked it more, but it did not suit me very much. （I'm sorry, Kembishi, but I drink it every night.) KENRISHI Heavy Industry Co.

The aftertaste is truly Miyagi Prefecture sake. This is the only impression I can give. The mouthfeel is fresh, smooth, and sweet to medium. It is dangerous to drink it whenever it is on hand. The temptation of sake is there. If I could drink this kind of sake every day, I would feel rich, but my sense of common sense would fade away. Junmai Daiginjo is here. Thank you very much for your kindness.

It was Nanbu Bijin from Iwate Prefecture. Once upon a time, when I was on a business trip and hosted a get-together with a client, the client asked for a bottle of Nanbu Bijin. I don't remember the taste at all, but I remember that the customer's simple and honest character, coupled with his "Iwate-bijin, Nanbu-bijin, and Nanbu-bijin, Nanbu-bijin. I don't remember the taste at all, but the simple character of the person who served the sake, coupled with his simple and simple personality, left a deep impression on my memory. I was able to drink it with him. I was allowed to drink it with him, but I don't remember the taste at all... I was fortunate enough to have a chance to purchase this bottle with the above memories in mind. What a surprise! It's so good! It's really tasty! I wondered what the "Nakaguchi" rate was, but once I drank it, I was convinced that it was easy to drink, easy to drink, easy to drink. If I had not grown up in Niigata, Nanbu Bijin would have become a staple in my home. I wish it would spread to many izakayas in Tokyo. It tastes so good that I want to recommend it. It has no peculiarity, no smell, no sake feeling, and is just like water. And it is neither too sweet nor too spicy. It makes you want to drink more and more. The person who made this is amazing.

It contains a 50% ratio of brewer's alcohol. It has a refreshing sharpness in the sweetness typical of Niigata, and has a good feeling of settling in the stomach. It does not seem to be widely distributed, but if you can keep buying it at a reasonable price, it could be a good sake for a regular evening drink. I drank about half of it, but it is a little too good to finish.
