Sake in Fukushima Shizen-go Junmai sev Oki Daikichi Honten, which makes Shizen-go, is a sake brewery in Fukushima Prefecture known for its Gakki Masamune. Both are very popular and hard to find sake. In the mouth, the delicious taste of rice spreads gradually, and a full, gentle sweetness is felt. The aftertaste is clean and crisp, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. The overall taste is well-balanced and clean, which is typical of sake from Fukushima, and you will never get tired of drinking it. Degree of liking 10/10

Yamagata Sake Eikofuji CRIMSON GLORY PINK SAPPHIRE Junmai Daiginjo This is a rare sake that turns slightly pink when poured into a glass. It is as gorgeous as a rosé wine. When you put it in your mouth, you can enjoy its mellow aroma and rich sweetness that fills your mouth. The astonishing sweetness of this sake, with a sake strength of -66, is reminiscent of a noble sake. Moreover, the balance of the exquisite acidity gives it a clean and crisp aftertaste. Among Eiko-Fuji's many sweet sake, this is a very unique sake. Degree of liking 10/10

Akita Sake Yamamoto Dosara Nama This is a draft version of "Dodara", a standard dry sake. It was purchased at Sugakyu Sake Shop in Akita City. I thought it was only available in Akita, but was a little disappointed to see it recently sold in Ibaraki as well. When I give sake as a gift, I often give it to people who like dry sake. Come to think of it, I have given it to people, but I realized that I had never drunk it myself, so I tried it. When I put it in my mouth, it went from a refreshing sweetness that is typical of Yamamoto to a booming dryness. It is refreshing when paired with oily food. It is more refreshing than "Bakuren," even though they are the same dry sake, perhaps due to the fact that it is a draft. Degree of liking 8/10

Fukuoka Sake Wakanami Junmai-shu 1.8L This is Wakanami's standard sake. It has a fresh aroma with a slight sweetness and umami of rice. It has a refreshing aroma, a slight sweetness and umami of rice, and it seems to disappear quickly and easily. Even though it is a junmai sake, it is a beautiful sake with no cloying taste. Moreover, the price is less than 3,000 yen including tax for a bottle. A similar sake, Hirotogawa's Tokubetsu Junmai, is priced at a little over 3,000 yen per bottle, but it is more mellow and sweet, while Wakanami Junmai is more light and dry. Both of them are very cost-effective, so I would like to keep them on hand. Degree of liking 9/10

Akita Sake Tobirazumi Hi-Tsuki type-A This sake specializes in acidity by using "triple acid", which is a combination of three acids: No.77 yeast (malic acid), Yamahai yeast (lactic acid), and white malted rice (citric acidity). Even so, the sake has a Sake meter rating of -16. Because of its strong acidity, it does not have much sweetness. I am not a big fan of sake with strong acidity, but my wife is addicted to SENKYO's "Kabutomushi," so I bought it. My wife's evaluation was, "Compared to Kabutomushi, this sake may have more alcohol taste. She said, "It might be more alcoholic than Kabutomushi. Degree of liking 8/10

Nagano Sake Kame no Kai Junmai Ginjo Nama Yellow Label I bought this sake because I was curious about it on SNS. The aroma is very fruity. It is delicious with juicy sweetness and flavor with a mellow aroma. The aftertaste is a bit sour. It is a clear sake with no sweetness. Compared to YOKOYOMA Silver7, this one has a thicker, mellow, umami taste that I really like. Sake of Nagano is very vigorous even if I see Yamazan and Kame no Umi. Degree of liking 10/10

Good evening, nenemu! Turtle Sea's yellow label is delicious 😋. I had it slowly for the first time at home and thought it was delicious 🎵. Nagano Prefecture's sake certainly has a lot of energy 🤗.

Nagasaki Sake YOKOYAMA SILVER7 Junmai Ginjo Hi-ire Yokoyama" is not easily available in Ibaraki, and I bought it at Hasegawa Sake Shop in Nihonbashi. Compared to the Yokoyama Goju I drank before, the sweet and tasty taste is more refreshing. I prefer it a little thicker, but this is delicious. Degree of liking 9/10

Ibaraki Sake Green Apple Raifuku Junmai Daiginjo Raifuku brews a variety of sake using flower yeast. This sake is made from green apples, but it seems to be made with sunflower flower yeast. It has a fresh aroma and a sweet and sour taste, followed by a bitter and refreshing taste. I like this one better because I feel the sweetness becomes stronger after a few days of drinking.

Yamagata Sake Eikofuji Sake Mirai Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Eikoufuji Sake Mirai is a sake that I look forward to drinking every year. I was able to drink it again this year. The mellow aroma, delicious rice flavor, and elegant sweetness spread on the palate. This mellow, umakuchi taste is just right for my taste buds. If there is still stock, I want to buy a bottle and compare it with Hana Yuu and Collage's Sake Mirai. I like it 10/10

Aomori Sake Tasake Junmai Ginjo Comet This sake is made from "Comet" sake rice produced in Hokkaido. The bottle is bright red and the name "Comet" reminds me of Char from Gundam. The aroma is slightly sweet, but the taste is crisp, and it disappears quickly, just like a summer sake. It may taste even better as a food sake. Degree of liking 8/10

Sake from Tochigi SENKOKU Modern Nishiki Orikarami SENKOKU became a new sake brewer this year. I was curious about it because I like the delicate and complex taste of the sake made from the traditional sake yeast. I was careful to open the bottle because it is an orikagari, but it did not blow out. The aroma is slightly gorgeous. When I put it in my mouth, I got a sour taste and then a bitter taste. What is it? I don't really feel the flavor of rice. Even though there is a shwashiness, it does not taste very good. It might be better as a stand-alone sake or with Western-style side dishes.

Ibaraki Sake Gokeijo Junmai Ginjo Summer Nama Sake Gokeijo has been on my mind for a long time. This sake is made by the Aoki Sake Brewery in Furukawa City, Ibaraki Prefecture. I was interested in this sake because it has won many gold medals and is made by Mr. Yanai, the former toji (master brewer) of 寫楽. Aoki Shuzo is not a very big brewery, so it is hard to buy even in Ibaraki, but you can buy it at a local sake bar at Mito Station. The aroma is gorgeous for a summer sake. The clear sweetness and Hitanishiki flavor stand out. Sourness is a bit. There is almost no bitterness. It is similar to Nozomu (bo:), a sake from Tochigi. This is a very tasty sake that can be used all over Japan. It is gorgeous, delicate, clear and juicy. If you can find it, please do. Degree of liking 10/10

Iwate Sake SHI-UCHU Strawberry Label Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu This is a popular sake from Iwate recently. I enjoyed it last year, but it is getting harder and harder to find. This is the Strawberry Label of Murasakyuu. The aroma is gorgeous, as it is called "Strawberry Label. When you put it in your mouth, it has a strong sweet taste. The Iwate yeast "Giovanni no Chikara" has less acidity like Yamagata yeast and Ogawa yeast, but it has a crisp aftertaste, so there is no sweetness. It is delicious. It is a delicious sake to drink by itself rather than as a food sake. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Tochigi Houou Mita Mikumari THE 2nd FLY HIGH Junmai Daiginjo Nama Sake I enjoyed this sake very much last year. It has a gorgeous aroma typical of Houou Mita, and the bubbles are petite like micro carbonation. It has a light sweetness with a slight bitterness that refreshes the palate. I think it is drier than last year. It is also delicious this year. Degree of liking 10/10

Gunma Sake Tsuchida TUCHIDA 12 This is the first time for me to drink this brand. To be exact, a friend of mine brought a bottle of Tsuchida Namikawashiroshi to a camping trip, but I was too drunk to remember what it tasted like. This sake is a challenging sake with 12% alcohol by volume and 90% polished rice. It has a wild rice flavor with a hint of acidity afterwards. I didn't know such a sake existed. Amazing!

Sake from Tochigi Bo: Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku Unfiltered Bottle Heated I have recently been addicted to Nozomu (bo:) sake. I bought this sake because it was on sale in a bottle that was heated. Compared to Hitogokochi's unfiltered raw sake, the aroma and sweetness are generally cleaner, and the bitterness cuts through quickly. This is a sake for summer. Perfect for this time of year.

Nagasaki Sake YOKOYAMA Goju Junmai Daiginjo BLACK Unfiltered Nama-shu Yokoyama Goju is hard to buy in Ibaraki. I bought it at IMADEYA in Ginza. It is a sweet and mellow sake, as it was trained at Toyo Bijin, which is a member of the Jyushidai family. From the rich sweet aroma, the sweet flavor of rice, which is typical of Junmai Daiginjo, is wonderful. After that, it is cut off without acidity and bitterness, so it is best drunk by itself in a wine glass. It is not easy to buy, but when I find it, I buy it immediately. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake in Fukushima, Japan Instrument Masamune JAM SESION Fukunoka There are not many sake shops in Ibaraki that sell Gakki Masamune, so it is very difficult to obtain it. So this is my first time to try it. Even though it is my first time, it is JAMSESION from the brewing test series. The aroma is sweet and sour. It is said to be the sweetest of all the Musical Instrument Masamune, but it has a clean sweetness compared to Eiko Fuji and Hana Yuu. It is good for a mid-meal drink because of its sourness.

Yamagata Sake Bakuren Super Dry Ginjo This sake is produced by Kamenoi Shuzo, which brews Kudoki-Ue. Kudoki-Ue is a sweet-tasting sake made with Ogawa yeast, and Bakuren is a very dry sake with a Sake - +20 degrees. I usually drink only sweet sake, but I happened to find this one and bought it for the regular price of 2,420 yen. The aroma is gorgeous, as is typical of Ogawa yeast. In the mouth, the crisp umami of rice disappears without any bitterness or other unpleasant taste. It is a dry or rather refreshing sake. Speaking of dry sake made with Ogawa yeast, there is Kiri-Tsukuba dry sake, but I would like to compare them next time. Degree of liking 9/10

Good morning, nenemu 😃 I'm surprised I've never had Bakuren 🤔It looks delicious and cosy! I have the impression that dry sake is cheap 😊The Kiri-Tsukuba Dai-harakuchi was also very tasty 😋.

Sake from Saitama, Japan HANA-YOUKAKU OMACHI Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu We let last year's Hana-Abi sit in the refrigerator for a year. I feel that the bitterness at the end of the bottle, which is present in other Hana-Abi, has calmed down. It seems mellower than the Hachitan-nishiki I drank before, which may be due to the fact that I let it sit in the refrigerator for a year. It might be better to separate the evaluation of HANAHEIKOU from that of ORIGARA or PREMIUM. Degree of liking 9/10
