This is the first lime label in two years. I'll spare you the details, as I've already reviewed it before. It's still as piquant, fresh and sweet as ever. I was right to choose this one instead of the Mimuro Cedar I saw at the first Mochizuki I stopped by🥰.

It was displayed in the refrigerated case at the store along with two kinds of Ura-Suiyu, and this was the last bottle, so I chose this one. This was probably the easiest to drink among the low-alcohol sweet sake I have had so far. The specs are as follows Rice used: Ippozumi Rice polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = -18.5 Acidity = 1.8 Amino acidity = 0.7 Yeast used = brewer's yeast (From the Aihara Sake Shop website) I also took a picture of the specs from the store where I bought it, Mikawaya, so I've uploaded that as well. It's been a while since I found a bottle that I thought "This is it! I think I have found a bottle that I can think "this is it" after a long time. _.) __(..._...)

This is the first freshly squeezed raw sake from Zancho Horai. Because it is a tokuso-jun, the ginjo aroma is low. In the mouth, there is a light gasiness, followed by a nutty sweetness that is nothing short of delicious. The specs are as follows Rice used: Chiba rice Polishing ratio = 60 Sake meter = -3.0 Acidity = 2.0 (From Kamakura Yamadaya website) After seeing the brewery's Instagram, I was right to go straight to the liquor store after work. So, a bottle from one of my favorite breweries in Kanagawa, Japan, was delicious. _.) _(. _.)

Did you drink the new sake of a certain grape wine last week? I enjoyed it very much. So, here is a bottle for you this time. It's been a while since I've had one from Shizuoka, hasn't it? This time, it is from Kamizawagawa Sake Brewery, which has a brewery in Shimizu City (now Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City), the familiar place where Chibimaruko-chan was filmed. Although it is a junmai-daigin, the ginjo aroma is modest. However, its fruity sweetness is unique. The specs are as follows Rice used: Yamadaho (for both koji and kake) Polishing ratio = 50%. Sake degree = +3.5 Acidity = 1.1 (From Sabun Sake Shop website) The documents for the year-end adjustment were safely prepared, and we only had to submit the original documents. This time it was more like an after-dinner drink, but it could be enjoyed either as an after-dinner drink or on its own. _.) _(..._...)

It has been a long time since the last Imadaiji, this time a low-alcohol Junmai. The brand name is Izayoi, named after the famous moon "Juroku-no-Yoru" (Sixteen Nights of the Moon), which is highly esteemed along with the famous moon of mid-autumn. Although it is junmai, it has a cider-like aroma. The flavor is similar to that of white wine. The specs are as follows Rice used: Niigata Gohyakumangoku (both for the koji and the kake) Polishing ratio = 60% (50%) Sake meter = -2.5 (From Koshiya Sake Brewery website) I think this bottle is in the category of Autumn Limited, or hiyaoshi. It was served with stir-fried meat, which was a side dish for dinner. I personally recommend to enjoy this bottle with sweets for a long time rather than as a food sake........ I am very happy to have enjoyed it. _.) _(..._...)

How many bottles in total? Kano Yamamoto brewed in a wooden vat made from 200-year-old Akita cedar trees, and used Kyokai No. 1 yeast. The label is also made from a photo of the surface of the wooden vat (from the back of the bottle). (From the bottle label) Perhaps it was because it was right after drinking Aoyamori, but I didn't notice much of the characteristic acidity... and the specs are as follows Rice used: Miyamanishiki Rice polishing ratio = 70%. Yeast used: Kyokai No. 1 yeast Sake meter = +1 Acidity = 1.8 (From the Sabun Sake Shop website) According to the website, this is a limited edition sake. It has a sake-like flavor with a certain rice flavor and sweetness. This is a famous sake brewery that is part of the NEXT5 (currently inactive). It would have been more interesting if it had a woody aroma like Kikumasa's barrel sake... Next time, I would like to try Nishida's summer-only Zenchidori (Utou) in Aomori. So, a bottle of one of the most prestigious sake representing the country of Hago, and it was delicious _(. _.) _

After much deliberation with Yamori, I decided to go for this one, of which there were only two bottles left, because I thought it was already sold out. The flavor is as easy to drink as a white wine, but with a strong sake flavor, and it is simply "delicious. The specs are as follows Rice used: Hitogochi and Yamae-Nishiki (both from Nagano Prefecture) Polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = -3 Acidity = 1.6 Amino acidity = 1 (From the Yutaka Meishu website) This would be fine for eating, or even on its own, or with sweets or cookie lines. When this one becomes available, I would like to get a bottle of Yamori, which I passed up on this time. So, I enjoyed this bottle from one of the prestigious breweries that represent the five breweries of Suwa in Shinshu. _.) _

The second stage of hiyaoroshi is a hiyaoroshi from the Sei series of Kagatobi, a famous sake from Ishikawa, the country of Kaga. With a moderate ginjo aroma and the crispness that only Kagatobi can offer, this local sake from Kaga Hyakumangoku is no exception. The specs are as follows Rice used = Japanese rice Polishing ratio = 60 Sake degree = +5 Acidity = 1.5 Yeast used = In-house yeast (From Y! Shopping website) It has the umami and sharpness of hiyaoroshi. It is a good match with Kayasha, which I drank earlier. This one is likely to run out soon.......so we enjoyed this famous sake from Ishikawa, the country of Kaga_(. _.) _

It's September, the long month of autumn. It is the season of hiyaoroshi, so I took home a bottle of Kayasha hiyaoroshi that caught my eye while I was shopping. It was easy to drink, with a mouthfeel like tasake (rice wine). And the specs are Rice used: Yamadaho Polishing ratio = 50-50 Sake meter = +2.8 Acidity = 1.5 (From the website of Okuhiroya, a local sake brewery) Hiyoroshi in autumn, a modern one is good, but a good old brand is also good, isn't it? So, a bottle of Akita's prestigious brewery was delicious. _.) __(. _...)

First Tomio. I bought it expecting it to be sweet and tasty, looking at the Alc. and Sake degree. As I expected, it was sweet and tasty, and I was right to buy it. The specs were as follows. Rice used = Japanese rice (place of origin unknown/koji and koji) Rice polishing ratio = 60:80 Alcohol content = 13 Sake meter = -34.0 Acidity = 4.3 (From the brewery's website) A versatile low-alcohol junmai sake that can be served with grilled pork belly, cheese, sashimi, or anything else. We can't help but hope for the release of a sparkling Premiere Amour (((^^;))), so we enjoyed this bottle from a prestigious brewery in Fushimi, Kyoto. _.) _(..._...)

The second brand of Etchu-Toyama is a famous sake from Kurobe, Ginban. It is an Aeon's original Jun-dai with Tominoko polished to 50%, but perhaps because it has been on the Buddhist altar as a sacred sake for a long time, it has a slightly better color. The specs were not known except for the rice used and the milling ratio. It was the first time in my life that I served nameko (fish with kipper) as a side dish. Although it is a little matured, it is easy to drink and can be paired with salted fish. We enjoyed the famous sake from Kurobe in Etchu. _.) __(..._...)

The second one is from Fukushima, Aizu, and it's been a while since I've had a chance to try it. It is a special bottle made from Aizan rice from Hyogo Prefecture, which is called the diamond of sake rice. The first bottle is not as good as Ocean, but it has a freshness that spreads immediately after drinking, and a good sweetness of rice. Aizu is proud of its excellent sake. It is truly a famous sake that Aizu is proud of throughout Japan. And the specs Rice used: All Aizan from Hyogo Prefecture Rice polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = ... Acidity = ... (From Sakaya Kurihara's website) This sake is also a good match with sea bream skin, but they do not interfere with each other, making it an excellent food poisoning sake. This is a great sake that represents Aizu and is delicious. _.) __(. _...)

It's been a while since we've had an Ocean Series from Kangiku, this time with Aomi, a summer sake. It was so fresh that the bottle was opened before the black blister was peeled off. The sake is so fresh that the stopper pops before the black blister is even peeled off. One sip and the first thing that comes to mind is "Soda apple juice! The low alcohol content of 13 degrees combined with the high alcohol content makes the drink go faster and faster. Rice used = Dewa Rice polishing ratio = 50%. Sake degree = ... Acidity = ... It is an excellent bottle that is not too heavy when served with salted kombu (kelp) with boiled sea bream skin. It is a quintessential brand of Kangiku Meikozo. It reminds me of the blue sea in summer. _.) __(. _...)

I'm a day late in posting this. I bought it because it was sparkling and low-alcohol, but when I opened the bottle and looked at the bottom, I found something white... I thought "I'm sick! Even though it is a sparkling wine, it is not sweet, but rather dry. And the specs are Rice used: Akita Sake Komachi Polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = +11 Acidity = 1.9 Yeast used = Akita yeast No.12 (From Sakane Sake Brewery website) Well, I think I made the wrong choice this time (((^^;))) I should have chosen Kangiku... but this kind of sake is not bad. So, is it a combination of the sake and the tailings? Sparkling, delicious _(. _.) _

This is a test brew from Hinomaru Brewery, well-known for Mansaku no Hana, and is the hottest sake in Japan with a Sake Degree of +25, comparable to Rokkasen's Yamaboshi Bakurai. As the label says, the flavor and concept of this sake are distinctly different from those of Manzaku no Hana, the sweetness of the rice comes first, followed by the tingling sensation of the +25 sake, and then it quickly wears off. It is clearly different from the mansaku we have had in the past, and is truly a sin mansaku no hana. Personally, I would like to see this become a standard bottle. The specifications are all listed on the back label, so I'll spare you the details. This one is interesting in terms of flavor. It is one of Akita's famous breweries along with Niimasa, and it is delicious. _.) _(. _.) 5/19 3 days after the bottle was opened. I drank it while watching the program of Mr. Ota, and the sweetness of the rice disappeared and it turned into super dry without any real sweetness.

Tobirazumi Honpo is a brewery that has been adamantly sticking to the Yamahai method of brewing sake. The first bottle of Tobirazumi Honpo is one of the lowest-alcohol bottles among the brewery's products. However, this is Yamahai. The unique acidity and freshness combine to create a deep flavor that is hard to believe it is only 14 degrees Celsius. This would be a good pairing with a strong flavor such as simmered fish. The specs are Rice used = Akita Sake Komachi from Akita Prefecture Rice polishing ratio = 60 Sake meter = -13 (From the Jizake no Liaison website) Sweet and sour and easy to drink. We enjoyed this bottle with Dr. Ota through the TV monitor, and it was delicious. _.) _(. _...)

Following yesterday's Tasake, I bought a bottle of Kouei-Kiku Twilight Orange, the first Kouei-Kiku since Hello. This one is a little unusual in that the rice polishing ratio and the specific name are unknown. The rice polishing ratio and the specific name are unknown. However, the low alcohol content, freshness, sweetness, and full flavor are unique to this brand. I went there expecting to find Kangiku Ocean 99 Soroumi in stock, but it was sold out. I chose this one because of the difficulty of obtaining it. The flavor is not overpowered by the salmon yukke, and I can go as much as I want with it. Oh, I'm afraid, I'm afraid ((((...))))) Anyway, the famous Saga sake was delicious _(. _.) _(..._))

This is the first canned rice wine in a long time. Junmai Daigin rank is also a first. The gorgeous ginjo aroma is also unique to junmai-daigin. According to Shizukiya's website, this Hyakuda sake rice is a cross between Sango-Nishiki and Aki-Shyu No. 718, which is Akita's preferred rice for sake brewing. The sake level, acidity, and other specifications are unknown, but it still retains the deliciousness that only tashu can offer. It is a new form of one of Aomori's best sake, and it is delicious. Tomorrow, I am waiting for Koei Kiku's Dusk Orange, which I bought together with my master, Rui, while watching his show 😁.

The second cup was a rice series that uses a different type of rice each month, among the famous Mansaku-no-Hana (Manzaku-no-Hana) rice as well as Shinmasa rice in Akita. Unlike the earlier Kanbongubai Omachi, the Yayoi is not as sharp, but has a slightly bitter taste that adds a nice accent to the mild and refreshing taste. The specifications are as follows Specified name = Junmai Ichigatsu Hi-ire Genshu (pure rice) Rice used: Koji/Kame-no-o from Akita, Kake/Kame-no-o from Akita Rice polishing ratio = 70%. Sake meter = 0.5 Acidity = 1.9 Amino acidity = 1.0 Yeast used = Akita NO12 (From the brewery's website) The second glass has gari-kipper as a snack, but it might be right to choose firefly squid as a snack for the first glass. Because the sake flavor is mild, the sweet and sourness of the gari in the snack enhances the flavor of the kame-no-o. As long as the choice of snacks is right, this is one that will make your cup go down the drain. So, a bottle brewed by a famous brewery in Yokote, Akita, was delicious. _.) _(..._...)
