I was lured into buying it by a pop-up saying it was the liquor store clerk's number one seller. Kamokin is said to use Omachi in many cases, but this bottle was a challenge to Aizan. It is said that Aizan is a rice that melts more easily than Omachi, making it peppy and difficult to handle. It tastes fruity, like banana, melon, and peach, and is very mild, fresh, and delicious. After opening the bottle, the fruity flavor was strong, but after a week or so, it seemed to have calmed down somewhat. It is said to be made with the No. 9 series yeast, and No. 9 has a low acidity. I think it would go well with fresh cheese.

I happened to get this one by accident at the airplane's in-flight meal. I thought it was called "Uguchi," but it turned out to be "Noguchi Naohiko. He is said to have played a role in the ginjo-shu boom and the Yamahai project. I wanted to try it. The taste is more like a classic with umami. If I had to say more, I would say banana or melon. However, the rice flavor is not too strong, and it is well balanced. It is delicious when paired with Japanese dishes such as dashi and simmered dishes. It also goes well with chirashi sushi. Maybe it is better to drink it at room temperature.

Hakutsuru-Nishiki is a rice developed by Hakutsuru Sake Brewery, and is probably a kind of sibling rice crossed with Yamadanishiki, which is a cross between Yamadaho and Watabune. The fact that it has been reduced to 33% means that it can only be a good sake by any stretch of the imagination. When we drank it, the acidity was as low as ever, and it contained a little melon-like nuance in the peach flavor. The taste is as stable as ever, typical of Kudokutei. It can be drunk with peace of mind. It is delicious on its own, and it would be interesting to drink it with cream cheese.

Pure Black is Yamamoto's flagship sake. While there are various seasonal sake, we believe that our standard sake is the most spirited. It is the face of the brewery. This sake was created by Mr. Yamamoto, the brewery's head brewer, who went through a lot of trial and error while the brewery was in the bottom of its management and the toji retired. The story is first and foremost muneatsu. When you drink it, you can taste a slight citrus acidity along with umami. It is an extremely good sake that is easy to drink, with a slight sweetness and no unpleasant alcohol taste at all. The intent is to have a "sharp sharpness like a Japanese sword. I see, it does not have a sweetness. It is said to go well with cream cheese and iburi goko (pickled ginger). It certainly seems to go well with them. It is very tasty!

It is the season for new sake. The new sake from Akabu is now available; the "F" stands for "For you" in "For you.... The rice is made from edible Hitomebore rice, or something like that. However, do not underestimate it. It has a fruity melon sweetness and a clean taste that does not leave too much aftertaste. It is fresh and extremely tasty! Does Iwate yeast have a melon-like flavor? I also found similar flavors in other varieties of Akabu. Whatever it is, it is insanely delicious. I think it would go well with white meat fish sashimi.

Machida Sake Brewery is said to be a fairly small brewery. This brand is characterized by the characteristic of its freshness, which is achieved by directly bottling all the sake after it is squeezed. Furthermore, the rice used is Omachi. I have the impression that Omachi is a slightly peppy rice that best expresses the characteristics of the sake brewer. We are looking forward to it. The taste is quite ricey, but also melon-like and fruity. The sensation is of a dark, sweet sake. Because of its richness, it would go well with a strong-tasting white sauce or something like that. The sake is delicious enough on its own.

It is now the season for Kudoki-ue's Yuki-Jinja. Snow Goddess is a rice produced in Yamagata Prefecture and is suitable for highly polished Junmai Daiginjo. I myself love sake made with Snow Goddess, so I had high expectations for this one. This one is a bit surprisingly highly polished at 29%. When I drank it, I found it to be a true Kudo Ute. It has a mildly sweet taste with little acidity. The peachiness of the kudoki-ish taste comes out well. I have the impression that the characteristics are especially strong in the Yuki no Meishin. It seems to go well with white sauce and other mildly sweet dishes, but considering that it is to be drunk chilled, it should be served at a reasonably low temperature. Maybe a cold potage? It is also delicious as a stand-alone alcoholic beverage.

I've been buying Masamune instrumental inexpensively and fruity more often lately, and Queen is a low-alcohol type at 12 degrees, something about it being a card-carrying Queen. Was the yellowish-green label of the label dragging down my impression of the flavor? It tastes like muscat and fresh melon. It has a moderate sweetness and can be drunk like a juice. This is delicious. It is recommended to be served chilled, and fresh cheese would go well with it.

First of all, the label is eye-catching. I don't know what it reads, but it is typical of KAWATSURU. When I drank it, I found it to be quite acidic. It is like a grapefruit that is not bitter. Looking at the label carefully, I see that it is made with white malted rice, which gives it that kind of sourness. If anything, it tastes like wine. Among the sakes we drank at the restaurant, this one had a particularly strong impact on us.

We had a hiyaoroshi from Naraman, which we had always been curious about but never got around to trying. Hiyoroshi is a somewhat classic style of sake with a lot of umami and suitable for room temperature, which is a hurdle for beginners. However, Naraman has both fruity and umami flavors and is very tasty. After much research, it seems to be a fresh sake. It was described as a ripe pear, and it may indeed be like that.

This is one that you don't see very often, and has been gaining a lot of attention lately: Gagakuyo. It is called "Utashiro" in Japanese. It has been a while since I drank this one, too. It is a light dry sake from Niigata, but it is supposed to be gorgeous. It tastes like a modern dry wine. It tastes fruity, but with little cloying taste and not too much sweetness, so it doesn't linger in the mouth. It would be great with white fish sashimi or other refreshing dishes.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. It is a bit colorful when you read it Masayo. This modern dry sake, not too sweet but aromatic, can be recommended to sake beginners. It is not too forward in its assertion, so it may be suitable as a food sake.

Aomori's famous sake that needs no explanation. Recently, it seems to be gaining popularity and is rarely seen at liquor stores. It is probably because it is distributed only to izakaya (Japanese style pubs). When I tasted it before, I felt a very apple-like fruity flavor, and the appleiness is the same this time. On the other hand, I also felt a strong flavor of rice along with the fruity taste. The umami flavor is strong, so it may go well with Japanese food. The match with sashimi was not bad.

This is one of the original specs of the liquor store. It is a daiginjo made from Yamada-Nishiki Tokubu A, reduced to 45%. This liquor store is a genius at specifying specifications, so we have high expectations for this one. The waiter said that "the aroma is restrained and it goes well with everything," and indeed, it is hard to imagine any fruit associated with it when drinking it. However, it has a rich flavor and fruity acidity, and is very drinkable. If I were to use an analogy, it has a lactic acidity and sweetness like Yakult. It may go well with sashimi, grilled fish, or anything else. It is a very delicious sake. No wonder it has a high repeat rate.

I know it has been a while since I have had a Kangiku, but I can assure you that it is definitely delicious. This is another sake using "Ken Aiyama," which is quite interesting. Aiyama is a rare rice that is almost 100% produced in Hyogo Prefecture, and its production is not that large to begin with. It is a diamond of sake rice. This sake has quite a story behind it, as it is brewed with Tokushima-grown Ken-Aiyama. The taste is a mixture of fruity acidity, bitterness, and sweetness along with a lactic acidity. This is a grape in my opinion. I don't know if grape calpis is the right way to describe it, but it has a nice sourness and slight bitterness. I thought Kangiku was sweet, but I don't think this one is as sweet. I found a very tasty sake. It is good enough to drink by itself, but I think it would also go well with salty cured ham.

Akabu no Amber is the one I got last year and enjoyed very much. As for the taste, it is clear, sweet and fruity as the label says, but with a low acidity. It is somewhat like a Japanese pear. Last year it seemed to feel like a melon, and when I think about it, it certainly has the sweetness and freshness of a ripe melon. To be honest, I am not a fan of autumn sake, but this sake has a fresh fruity feeling with a little autumn flavor.

While many autumn sakes are matured and have a great flavor, this one was a bottle of Ohmine, which is a raw ogara-mi sake and Omachi, which can only be imagined as fruity. I couldn't resist the urge to buy it. After opening the bottle, it had a nice aroma, and when I drank it, the acidity was quite gentle, and the expression "yellow peach" was exactly right. In addition to the mildness of the molasses, the alcohol content is only 13%, which makes it easy to drink too much. This sake is one of the most delicious sake of the year that I have ever tasted.

The label is not clear at first glance, but it appears to be a brand called Mutsugorozan from Tocho. I quite like Saga sake with a sweet fruity taste, so I have high expectations for this one. The taste is delicious, with the sweet fruity flavor of Saga coming through well. I remember thinking that it has some acidity. The brewer commented that it goes well with cheese and chicken. It certainly seems to be a good match.

Halloween label of Takachiyo, which can only be drunk at this time of the year. A cute label that is highly likely to get a reaction when you take your kids to the liquor store. According to the liquor store, this one sells out before Halloween. After opening the bottle, it has a fruity flavor typical of Takachiyo and a sharp acidity characteristic that is evident from the specification that it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized orikarami sake. It is said to be described as a ripe pineapple, but I personally thought it was closer to a sweet grapefruit. Although it is sharp, it is easy enough to drink for beginners. It is very tasty.

This is a series of KID's Challenge Sake, and this one seems to have been prepared with a low alcohol content and designed to be drunk smoothly. Although fire-brewed, it had a slightly fizzy and energetic feeling when opened, but when we drank it, we found it was easy to drink, with little acidity and bitterness. Although there is some sweetness. The aftertaste is quite refreshing. It is faintly melon-like. KID has a lot of interesting challenge series like this, but this kind of sake makes me want to drink their regular lineup again.

I got a rare sake. Kamimorohaku is read as "Jomorohaku," which seems to imply that the rice has been shaved down quite a bit. It sounds very high quality, with its "Nakadori," "Banshu Aizan," and "high rice polishing. The taste is as fruity as ever. It does not have a sharp taste, perhaps because it is highly polished rice, but it is overwhelmingly refreshingly fruity and has a sweetness that is typical of Jyushidai. Taste-wise, it is like a grape. The bitterness is extremely weak. Jyushidai is a sake that you can't get very often, so it's good to drink it together. It is definitely a delicious sake.
