This is the 5th bottle of this year's Maikaze series! It's been a while since I've had a "Kantou no Hana", but this is the first Maikaze type, so it's one I've been looking forward to👍. When I opened the bottle and poured it, it was clear and had a slightly fruity aroma. It has a crisp mouthfeel and a gaseous feel, making it refreshing and sharp. I was surprised at the dry taste, which is outstanding among the Maikaze series and other sake from the same brewery that I have had! However, it is not only spicy, but also has the mild sweetness and umami of "Maikaze". The freshness of the lush, raw sake and the bright astringency are also present in this well-proportioned taste ✨. The aftertaste is also refreshing. The aftertaste is also refreshing, similar to that of a Ramune or cider! I was surprised at how different it was from the "Sei", "Meiho Akagi", and "Hizirizm" I have had in the past! But the interesting thing is that I can feel the same atmosphere at the core 👐.

Summer yokohama harvested with beetles! It was last year too, but we are so grateful to have them with us if the timing is right. ☀️ Calm and fresh aroma of pear and green apple type. The palate is clear and light. It is pleasant to drink, flowing cleanly and vividly. When tasted, it has a soft and aromatic tropical fruit, melon, and pear-like juicy sweetness and roundness. The refreshing acidity and spiciness flow through it and finish it off crisply. It has the flavor of tropical fruits and a cool, refreshing feeling like a clear blue sky. It is a delicious taste that brings everlasting summer islands to mind. 🏝️ The same refreshing taste, but different from that of beetle...! I hope to get it again next year ✨

The heat is no longer at a level where the sun hurts😇. It's a little early, but it's time for the beetles that we were lucky enough to harvest again this year! When opened and poured, the nose has a refreshing citrus and white grape aroma. The mouthfeel is cool and refreshing as expected! However, perhaps because it is an Edo-style wine, the balance of acidity and astringency is less sweet and more elegant than the last time I drank it. The lemon squash and citrus sensations are still present, but it also has a delicious white grape and lychee-like beauty! The lightness of the wine disappears quickly with a lingering astringent taste that gradually fades away. The same goes for the caution against overdrinking ✨. The acidic combination with the "wreckage"! I want to get over the heat in the "sky" (impossible 🌞).

Among the Maikaze series, I have long been curious about the Maikaze sake from the Takamusume Brewery. I was so excited to try this one, which is different from "Sakiyami" and "Takamusume"...! The bottle was opened with the lid flying off like a rocket. The aroma is sweet and fresh, with hints of white peaches, apples, and melon. The mouthfeel is refreshing with a solid gasiness. The combination of Maikaze's beautiful sweetness, gasiness, and light acidity gives it a clear, fruity taste. After the fruitiness passes, the minerality and the rich flavor of the rice spread out! The wine is crisp and clear, with a light astringency and spiciness that finishes off the palate. It's a quintessential taste ✨. It reminds me of "Sakiyami" in terms of drinking comfort! I think I will buy this again next year 😋.

The Maikaze from Yuu, which was delicious last year. It is one of the bottles we look forward to drinking, as it is unfiltered, raw, and bagged! When opened and poured, it has a fresh and fruity aroma of banana, melon, and pear. The mouthfeel is smooth and clean. The taste is clear and sharp with a slight astringency. The wine has a refreshing flavor with sweet and sour fruit and rummy notes. The brightness disappears without any change. It still has a hard feeling, but just like last year, it will surely blossom with a change of taste ✨. It has a graceful lightness that is hard to believe it is unfiltered junmai. I would like to try the seasonal version of the "Yuu" series 👍.

Today is a party with friends, with a few days off from drinking! We'll open a bottle of the special one who is not ashamed to be the star of the show✨. The aroma is gorgeous and sparkling, like high-end Muscat or La France, yet calm and elegant. Gorgeous on the palate! The palate is clean and smooth, with a slight gasiness that makes it fresh and pleasant. The taste is full of luscious and elegant fruitiness that is truly worthy of the finest. The taste is accented with a mature accent of acidity and astringency, and it flows beautifully. The taste is so artistically beautiful that words are unnecessary to describe the 14 Worlds! I am so grateful to have been able to obtain it 👏.

Sushi time! It's hot, so we'll start with 🍺 and then we'll have a big bowl of sake 🍶. Mineral and light on the palate. The clear dry taste has a core of umami from the rice. The crispness of the sake is unobtrusive, hard but fresh. It is a perfect accompaniment to sushi, as it does not interfere with the sushi, but is in tune with it with its umami and resets it with its kirei, making it a delicious and perfectly salted accompaniment during a meal. Freshly deconstructed red meat and toro. Freshly deconstructed red meat and toro, seasonal sea bream, kibinago, scallops, striped horse mackerel, and more.... It's a time when your taste buds will not be able to stop smacking their lips!

I got it at a sake brewery on my Manza Onsen trip last year: ♨️ I kept it for a year because I wanted to enjoy it paired with Akizakura. We are now ready to open the bottle 👍. When opened and poured, it has a bright yet aromatic aroma of prunes and kiwi. The mouthfeel is pure and clean, just like Gunma sake. Immediately after, there is a hint of shellfish? Tide? A fresh green feeling? The unique flavor of fresh greenery? Then comes the stimulation of a spicy and astringent taste. After the stimulation is gone, the round flavor of rice spreads out, although it is light and delicate. The bitter taste of caramelized sweetness in the depths, and the sharpness that rounds off the taste in a clear manner. The complex and deep flavors that emerge from the clarity are interesting and delicious! The "Higen" series from the same brewery is one of the sharpest in Gunma in terms of spiciness. While at its core it has the same atmosphere, the different worldview is impressive ✨.

Since it was 6/6, we opened a bottle of Shinmasa, which we had been saving for a year! It has been laid up for a year, so let's have a toast on the day of 6! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a gentle aroma of white peaches and plums, as well as a fresh, green, fresh aroma. The mouthfeel is crisp, but soon after, the wood vat feeling spreads and makes its presence felt. As the woody flavor passes through, the taste is sweet, sour, and astringent, and refreshing. After the sweet, sour, and astringent taste, you can taste the flavor of the rice-like, light, improved Nobukou, and it finishes off in a clean and refreshing manner. It is a truly tiered lineup, a deliciousness beyond description ✨. I served it in a flax cat glass with my partner! We will enjoy it with the 66 pair of "Kaze no Mori" that we just opened 😋.

I had decided to open this one in June! Last year, it was the middle pick type, but this time we are going to use the normal version👍. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is rich and deep with cemedine, berries, tropical fruits, etc. The mouthfeel is mineral and fresh. The mouthfeel is mineral and fresh. The palate has a fresh, citrusy feel with a touch of gas, but also a soft, berry-like flavor with body. It has a freshness like citrus fruits with gas, but it has a soft, berry-like body and deliciousness! The clean, light acidity pulls it up crisply, so it goes on and on despite the complexity of the flavors✨. One of the best bottles I've been able to buy this year! It's almost the turn of the year 🫣.

Tanigawadake" is my second favorite in the Maikaze series after "Akagisan"! This year, too, we were able to obtain a rare raw type of sake, and we are very happy about it! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a crisp, fruity aroma of green melon and green apple. The mouthfeel is refreshing. It has a crisp and spicy lightness that is typical of Tanigawadake. There is a hint of sweetness with a refreshingly juicy apple flavor on top of the acidity. From there, the astringent taste tightens up the refreshing sensation. It is a two-fold deliciousness of coolness and juiciness ✨. Less lush and softer than Akagisan. As with every year, even with the same Maifu, they are all different and all good 👐. If I had tried this brand before "Akagisan" when I was new to Gunma sake, I might have woken up to this one. They are truly a two-top...!

The Maikaze series is something I look forward to every year! The first one is of course "Akagisan" (Mt. Akagi) 🔥. When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a mild aroma of white peaches and pears. The mouthfeel is fresh and clean. The astringent taste of green fruit comes first, followed by a light sweetness that is typical of "Maikaze" with its purity. The freshness of the freshness and the coolness that is typical of "Akagisan" (Mt. Akagi). Akagisan" and its vivid flavor reminds one of the fresh green Akagisan (⛰️)! On the other hand, as you savor it, the full-bodied flavor typical of nama-zake spreads like honey. The trinity of the sake, Akagisan, and Maikaze is well balanced and delicious ✨. Akagisan has finally reached the 90 CI! I'm having a hard time deciding what the 100 will be today 💪.

900 Check in ㊗️ I thought I might meet you at the destination, but I'm going to have a stable "Akagisan" this time too! All brewed in Gunma Prefecture, "Yamamurasaki"✨. When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was slightly sweet, peachy and aromatic, beautiful and calm. The mouthfeel is clear and soft. It has a rounded and pleasant taste with a hint of pure sweetness. The crisp spiciness that is typical of Akagisan and the light flavor of the rice come together to create a refreshingly enjoyable taste! Then comes the astringent taste of kiwi and green fruits in between. This accent is also good, and the beautiful sharpness that disappears without a hitch keeps the sake flowing👍. Finally, the 1000th is in sight...! I'm going to relax and enjoy each and every encounter 🍶.

In Takamatsu, we enjoyed a combination of olive yellowtail and wine cocktail, and the classic chicken on the bone and beer pairing! And the post-drinking Sanuki Udon noodles were exceptional as well✨. While soaking up the afterglow, we continued with Sakura Horyo! Upon opening the bottle, the aroma was fragrant with spices, nuts, and honeyed apples. The mouthfeel is clean and round. The beginning has a grain-like, fluffy sweetness and a firm, rice-like umami. From there, there is a powerful triple attack of spicy, acidic, and astringent flavors! It leaves a lingering astringent aftertaste, but it goes down smoothly, making it easy to pair with an accompaniment (jakoten)! When I woke up, I found myself in a familiar view of Tokyo. It was truly a dreamlike moment.

After that, we moved on to Kotohira and then to Utazu to visit a park that offers a panoramic view of the Seto Ohashi Bridge! The grandeur of the Seto Ohashi Bridge. The smoke from the industrial complex in Sakaide. The soothing sound of the sea and the sea breeze. It was a fitting end to our trip to the Seto Inland Sea. After drinking in Takamatsu, we took an overnight trip across the Seto Inland Sea at night. We ended our trip with some of the best sake from Kotohira and Bicchu Matsuyama. When you open the bottle, you will find a mellow and rich aroma of grain. The mouthfeel is a bit on the refreshing side. The banana-like richness contrasts with the acidity that immediately stimulates the tongue. The astringent and pungent accents are added to make it crisp and dry. It is a delicious wine that can be drunk without hesitation!

After visiting Kintohira, we had Sanuki udon noodles and went to Kinryo Sake Brewery, which we had our eye on. The collection of sake cups and the history of the brewery in the museum are well worth seeing! While soaking up the afterglow of the visit, we enjoyed a tasting at the store attached to the brewery...and that's about all we have to say so far. The last one was Jun Dai! Floral and gorgeous aroma. The mouthfeel is more refreshing. The pleasant sweetness and umami of Yamada-Nishiki was gently felt, followed by the spicy acidity and astringency that tightened up the taste. It is a deep taste that is elegantly wrapped up by the lush astringency that comes at the end of the bottle! There was also a selection of limited edition sake from the brewery, as well as a selection of souvenirs! We had so much fun that we forgot how tired we were 🍶.

After visiting Marugame, we went to the innermost part of the temple, the 1368-step Kintohira mairi. The lush nature and scenery along the way and the majestic main shrine at the end of the path were both refreshing and solemn. There are many shrines along the way, so we received a lot of power. I will skip the visit to Kinryo Brewery in the next post. Then, "Kusunokami"! Melon and pear type aroma. It was moist and as described, juicy with a sweet astringent taste like grapes. When tasted thoroughly, it has a mellow flavor with a rich rice-like umami. However, there is a lingering acidic and astringent aftertaste that tightens up the taste, so you can enjoy the expansion and contraction of flavors! Thus, after touring the mountains and hills of Bicchu Matsuyama and Marugame, both legs had run out of energy.

Round sweetness like banana or tropical fruits. Immediately after, there is a punch of spicy acidity, but there is no unique flavor such as a sense of maturity, and it is refreshing. The sharpness of the astringent taste that comes in at the end of the bottle is habitually delicious👍. Now, Hirosaki is the only existing castle tower that has not yet been visited!

In addition to jakoten and spanish mackerel, I also found some ume-nishiki, which I will drink at the hotel ✨. When you open the bottle, it has a softly sweet aroma of custard and sugarcane. The mouthfeel is round and soft. The soft sweetness is tightened by acidity and astringency. It is not too sticky and is easy to drink! It goes well with jako-ten (fish cake) and spanish mackerel. The day ended with me wanting to eat jakoten endlessly. Leading up to today👍
