Akita Sake Suitama Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu This sake is produced by Ryoseki Shuzo, the brewer of Hanayu. Suitama means emerald. When you drink it, the mellow aroma is followed by a light sweetness and acidity that quickly fades away. Compared to Hana Yuu, this one is lighter. Compared to other sakes, it is easy to drink and tasty, but the problem is that if you find Suiyu and Hana Yuu in a liquor store, you will buy Hana Yuu. However, Sui-yu has a four-pack bottle, so it is easy to give as a gift. Degree of liking 10/10

Good evening, nenemu! Suiyu is delicious 😋. My friend gave it to me as a gift a few years ago and I was hooked 😁✨. I'd love to compare the different types of sake rice they have now 😊.

Sake in Chiba Kangiku Haruhi Special Yell Unfiltered Nama Sake This is a limited edition spring sake from Kangiku. The rich sweetness disappears from the gorgeous aroma without any unpleasant taste, which is just like THE KANGIKU. It is extremely delicious. I think Ocean99's Aomi will be released soon, so I am looking forward to this one as well. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Saitama, Japan Hana-Abi Junmai-Ginjo Hachitan-Nishiki Unfiltered Nama-Shu This is Hana-Abiko, which is not orihagara-mi. I like the color scheme of this year's Hachitan-Nishiki best among the Hana-Abiko labels. The label on the Hanahan-nishiki label does not come off cleanly, no matter how many times I tried. I think the Hachitan-nishiki is more gorgeous and less bitter than the sake Musashi I drank the other day. This Hachitan-nishiki is my favorite among the Hanahyoshis. Degree of liking 9/10

Sake from Iwate SHI-UCHU Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Harajuku, Activated Nigori, Polka Dot Label Last year, I had my first taste of SHI-CHU and was blown away by its deliciousness. A little while ago, the topic of Murasakiu was talked about on social networking sites as being better than Jyushiyo. It is an active nigori sake. The yeast used for Murasakiu is Giovanni no Yume, which is unique to Iwate, but I think it is similar to Yamagata yeast in that it has less acidity. The taste has a petit carbonation that makes the sweet taste refreshing. There is quite a bit more nigori lees. It is like a more refreshing version of Eiko Fuji's Shiryoh. I feel it is similar to Urasato Nigori. In short, I love the taste. I would like to drink it again next year. Degree of liking 10/10

Akita Sake Hanamaru Omachi Junmai Ginjo Namaishu Compared to last year, Hanamup has become more difficult to obtain. Even so, I bought the Omachi, which I like the most. It has an elegant sweetness like white peaches, a delicious taste of rice, and a nice bitterness after swallowing. It is still delicious. It is my favorite sake. Degree of liking 10/10

Chiba Sake Kangiku Hisashinmoku Hazy Moon Unrefined Unrefined Nama Sake This is the first Sono Shangiku sake using Fukuoka's sake rice "Jushinmu". It is also orikara! The cork did not fly open, although I was told to be careful when opening the bottle. The aroma was weak for a Kangiku sake. It has a great shwashiness. Although it is an orihara of Kangiku, it is not as sweet and delicious as Densho-Kiku, and the aftertaste is dry due to the carbonation. I also felt the same with Eikoufuji's Jyukinmu, but maybe the rice used for Jyukinmu sake is drier? Degree of liking 9/10

Fukushima Sake HIROKI Special Junmai Namazume This is a premium sake from Fukushima. At a certain liquor store, you can buy five bottles of Tobiroki on a points system. When I drank it at an izakaya, I didn't like it that much, but when I drank it at home, I could taste the beautiful rice flavor from the mildly sweet aroma. It is not a sweet-tasting sake, but rather a well-balanced sake as is typical of Fukushima sake. It has a lighter flavor than Hirotogawa. After about a week in the refrigerator, the taste has mellowed and it has become easier to drink. This is a sake that can be transformed into a good sake when served with a meal.

Yamagata Sake Eikoufuji Jyushinmoku Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Kotobukinmu is the name of a relatively new sake rice produced in Fukuoka Prefecture. The sake has a Sake Brix of ±0 degrees, which is unusual for Eikofuji, which often produces sweet sake. The aroma is not so rich, but when you put it in your mouth, it has a sweetness that is typical of Eikoufuji, and it disappears with the umami of the rice. As one would expect from Eikoufuji! I think it is similar to the Eikoufuji Shin that I drank before. However, I prefer Eikoufuji's sweet flavor. Degree of liking 9/10

Yamagata Sake Eikofuji Arahata Shogen Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu There is not much information about Eikoufuji's new series. I thought Eikoufuji only made seasonal products, but they have launched the New Arata series as a year-round product. Among them, Shogen is said to be a junmai ginjo-shu. I bought it at the Keisei Department Store in Mito. There were no other Eikoufuji seasonal products, so maybe they only carry the new series. I wish there was a Eikoufuji dealer in Mito. The taste is less sweet and more refreshing than Eikoufuji's seasonal products. It is a sake that seems to be popular with everyone, as if it has no characteristics because of that.

Sake from Fukushima Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori Sake Nama Yogobottle This is the last Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori sake of the year. I will leave it until December. In the end, I drank one bottle and three bottles of Yongo. Hirotogawa has always had a good balance of sweetness, umami, acidity, and bitterness, and I think it is a sake that is liked by everyone, regardless of whether you are a dry or sweet drinker. In particular, the junmai nigori sake has a very special umami flavor. It is understandable that it is popular, but if it becomes too popular, it will be difficult to obtain. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Fukushima Tenmei Nakadori Sangou Junmai Oorigarami Unfiltered Nama-shu Among them, Tenmei's Nakadori series has various themes. The Nakadori Sango is "our deliciousness." When you drink it, you will find that the sweetness is just a little bit sweet and the acidity comes out after the gentle rice flavor. It goes well with sashimi. After a few days of drinking, the combination of the umami and the acidity becomes mellower. The overall balance is very good, as is typical of Fukushima sake. Degree of liking 9/10

Fukushima Sake Kasumi Romain Junmai Ginjo Usu Nigori Nama-shu This sake has the sweetest taste among the Loman series. I was shocked by the taste when I drank it last year and drank other Romans, but Kasumi Romans was the most delicious. It is sweet and juicy with a fresh and complex aftertaste. I don't know if this is due to the four-stage brewing process using glutinous rice or not, but it is like making a sake with a fresh yeast yeast. I am glad I could drink it again this year.

Ibaraki Sake Raifuku Junmai Namaishu (pure rice sake) Mamashi-shu This sake is produced by the Raifuku Sake Brewery in Chikusei City, Ibaraki Prefecture. Originally, Raifuku brews sake using a variety of flower yeasts, but we were unable to determine which flower yeast was used for this sake. When I drank it, I found it to be very sweet, as it is called moromi sake. It is also a perforated crown that is activated in the bottle, so it is a very lively sake with a lot of pizzazz when drunk. It is recommended for those who like sweet and tangy sake without sourness and bitterness. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Saitama HANAHODAKE Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Sakare Musashi This is a hard-to-find sake, Hanaoyokko. It used to be sold quietly at a local liquor store, but word has gradually spread that it is being sold, and even there it has become difficult to buy. I've had several bottles of Huayoukou, and I think it is more suited to drinking as a food sake than on its own, as it has a more subdued aroma than Houou Mita, less pineapple-like than Kameizumi CEL24, and a longer lingering bitter aftertaste. Considering the price and difficulty of obtaining it, I think Hanayuup or Hououmida would be fine. Degree of liking 8/10

Sake from Miyagi Prefecture Miyakanbai Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nakadori Nama-shu This is my favorite Miyakanbai. The aroma is so mellow that you would think it was Houou Mita. When you put it in your mouth, the umami and sweetness spread at once, and a little bit of acidity refreshes the aftertaste. Everything is elegant, so it is easy to drink. It is a delicious wine after all. Degree of liking 10/10

Aomori Sake Tazake Kojo-zake This is the most popular Kijo-zake among Tazake. This is the first time for me to drink kijoshu itself. As a lover of sweet and tasty sake, I felt obliged to drink it. I had actually gone to buy a bottle of Tasake's light nigori, but I bought the last remaining bottle of kijoshu. It was so sweet that when I put it in my mouth, I could not help but exclaim, "Sweet! It was so sweet that when I put it in my mouth, I said "Sweet! It was like honey. But the sweetness was followed by sourness and a clean aftertaste. After a few days, the sweetness is reduced and it becomes easier to drink. Degree of liking 9/10

Sake from Fukushima Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori Sake Nama Bottle I finally bought a bottle of sake. Now I have two Yongo bottles, one Ichimasu bottle, and one more Yongo bottle that I haven't drunk yet. It was delicious again this year. It has a good balance of sweetness, sourness, and bitterness, and is suitable for both drinking on its own and as a mid-meal drink. Recently it has become so popular that it is difficult to buy it, but I am grateful that there is a special distributor near me. As far as I can get, Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori Sake and Urasato Usu Nigori are the best. The Urasato Usunigori was sold out in the blink of an eye even in my hometown. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Fukushima Keiraku Junmai Ginjyo Oorigarami Sangou This is a unique sake for this time of year. It is very popular and hard to find, so when you find it, buy it immediately. It has a gorgeous fruity aroma that is typical of 寫楽, and the delicious rice flavor blooms and quickly breaks through, so it is not too sweet. It is a well-balanced sake. It is extremely delicious. Like Hirotogawa, there are many well-balanced sakes from Fukushima. Degree of liking 10/10

Sake from Chiba, Japan Denshokiku Yamadanishiki 50 Super Limited Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Denshogiku is very popular. Compared to last year, it has become more difficult to obtain. It is lucky to be able to buy it with Oorigarami. It is a gently sweet-tasting sake with little acidity. Compared to ogara-mi, this one is more refreshing and suitable as a food sake. Both are delicious. Sono Kangiku is never out of place, and every one is delicious. If you want to taste the sweetness and the deliciousness of rice, this is the sake for you. Degree of liking 10/10

Akita Sake Hanamup Yamadanishiki Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki Junmai Daiginjo, the highest grade of Hanamai, brewed by Ryoseki Shuzo. Hanamup's Junmai Daiginjo is made from Aizan and Yamadanishiki sake rice. This Yamada-Nishiki is also very hard to find and can only be purchased in a bundle. The quality of this sake is similar to that of Jyushiyo, but I think this one is more gorgeous. Compared to the Hanayu Aizan Junmai Daiginjo we had a while ago, this one was more refined and had less bitterness and acidity. So, I compared the two drinks, and I am not sure how good they both are, but they are both great tasting. Degree of liking 10/10
