1 gou? Alcohol 16%, 100% Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, 72% polished rice ratio. It has a slight dryness from Yamada-Nishiki, but it also has a surprising acidity. It's refreshing and not bad!
1.8L 3300 yen Alcohol content 15 degrees Raw material rice: 100% Yamadanishiki, Polishing ratio 60% I bought it with Rakuten, but it is a genuine product. It is a little dry, but it is full-bodied and has the unique flavor and sweetness of Yamadanishiki rice. It also has a little gasiness.
1.8L only 😎 Alcohol 16% Raw material rice Koji rice: Aiyama 84%, Yamadanishiki 16% Kake rice: Aiyama 100% Polishing ratio: both Koji rice and Kake rice: 50% Sake degree: +3.5 Acidity: 1.7 I bought this at Rakuten, but it is not an official product. It's refreshing, but it's also a bit gassy, so it has a bit of a dryness to it as well 🤔 It also has some acidity mixed in, so it has a sharpness to it as well. Not a bad sake, but 🤔200 check-ins achieved with this one: 👍️
Good evening, LUCFFR 🌛.
Congratulations on your 200 CI following your national win 🎉.
I also achieved my national conquest the other day and I feel like I'm on the same pace as 200 CI in a few more days 😁.
Good luck with your next goal 😆.
I bought this on Rakuten around June 🤔I would be happy if I could buy it at an authorized distributor. It is a bit dry because of the acidity mixed with the gassiness 🤔.
1.8L 2640 yen Alcohol content 15% Koji rice: 68% Chiba Gohyakumangoku, Kake rice: 80% Chiba Fusakogane, Sake degree +9 The first after the national championship was made to Koshi, Chiba Prefecture. The place to buy it is an authorized distributor since it is a member of the Japan Sake Association. There are very few official products from Chiba Prefecture and the Kanto area, so I was lucky to find one by chance. When opening the bottle, the lid will fly off if you do not hold it down while opening. It is not so dry for a sake with a sake strength of +9, but the acidity and slight carbonation make it refreshing and easy to drink, and it goes down well.
1.8L 2,850 yen Alcohol content 15.5 degrees Raw material rice Hinohikari Polishing ratio 70% Yeast used: Kyokai No. 9 yeast Sake degree +7 Acidity 1.6 I finally bought it last week on Rakuten. It can be served cold or hot. Today, I will drink it cold. It is not as dry as I thought it would be, but it is full-bodied and well-balanced with sweetness, making it easy to drink. 👍️I have achieved the national victory on this day. ✌️
Nice to meet you, LUCFER 😊.
Congratulations on winning the national championship 🎉.
I'm one of the last remaining prefectures and will achieve it soon too 😁.
I didn't know you already had a goal in mind after you achieved it 😲.
I will think of something too and I will refer to it 🙇.
1.8L 2750 yen Alcohol content 15% Koji rice: 60% Gohyakumangoku from Kitakata Kake rice: 60% Chiyonishiki from Aizu Sake degree -2 Acidity: 1.4 Purchased yesterday at an authorized sake shop in Misawa City. There is a bit of dryness from the rice, but the acidity is a bit stronger. It finishes with a firm kick.
1.8L 4000 yen, 15-16% alcohol by volume, 100% Aomori grown Hanasoui rice, 55% milled rice, -1% sake, 1.5 acidity, purchased 3 days ago at one of the 7 authorized distributors in Aomori city. It is refreshing and easy to drink without any peculiarities. 👍️
The day before yesterday, it arrived in stock and I quickly bought it at the authorized distributor after work. It's a good sake, but it's not carbonated, and it's not carbonated 🤣 Following last month's Yamadanishiki 40%, it has the unique umami and sweetness of Yamadanishiki rice while being refreshing, and the acidity and spiciness of the rice are balanced and mixed well afterwards. 👍️ I think Tasake should stop carbonating everything.
1.5L 3,400 yen Alcohol 16-17% Raw material rice 100% Aomori Prefecture Hana Moui Polishing ratio 55% Sake degree -1 Acidity 1.6 Magnum bottle winter ver. sold in limited quantities every November, which was miraculously left during September. It is refreshing, but it is easier to drink than sweet, although there is a slight dryness to it.
1.8L ¥3,630 Alcohol content 15%, 100% Miyamanishiki raw material rice, 48% rice polishing ratio, Sake degree -2, Acidity 1.4 I bought this together with Shiroro Taruzu which I posted yesterday. When I opened the bottle, there was a strong gaseous sensation and the lid flew off 🤣There was some carbonation when I poured it into the glass. It is fruity but also has a dry feel due to the strong gassiness. The carbonation is not as strong as you would expect. It finishes with a dry and slightly bitter taste. It is only available in Aomori prefecture, and I think Ichinokura is the only other authorized distributor in Miyagi prefecture 🤔.
1.8L ¥3,960 Alcohol content 16% Raw material rice: Haguro Shokushinko, 100% Touji Honkatsu Misaku, Polishing ratio 55% Sake degree +1.2 Acidity 1.5 Amino acid degree 1.2 It has been a while since I purchased it at an authorized distributor in Aomori City. It is a little dry, but it has a richness and umami that spreads and finishes well.
I have drunk 40% and 50% of Tasake before, but I hadn't had this 40% yet, so I bought it last week at an authorized distributor. It is easy to drink, without the usual carbonation that Tasake is known for. 👍️ My main goal is to get a Junmai Daiginjo Yamahai, which will be released next month 😎.
1.8L ¥3,960 Alcohol content 15% Raw material rice: 100% Tokushima Kenaiyama, Polishing ratio 50% Sake degree -6 Acidity 1.4 Amino acidity 0.7 There are no authorized distributors in Aomori Prefecture, so I purchased this bottle on Rakuten. When I opened the bottle while holding the lid, I could feel gas. When you start drinking it, you can feel the dryness due to the gaseous taste and the slight carbonation. The micro carbonation was weak, but the spiciness and sweetness mixed together and it was very sharp.
1.8L, 2,950 yen Alcohol content 16% Koji rice - Gin no Sei 55% Kake rice - Akita Sake Komachi 58% Yeast used Akita New Yeast Sake degree +3 Acidity 1.2 Purchased at an authorized sake shop in Misawa City. It is easy to drink and the dryness spreads while it finishes well.

It is one of the seven stores in Aomori city. 😎 Unusually for a sake made by Morisho in Shichinohe town, it has an acidity, but it is not as strong as I expected and is easy to drink with a crisp and clear taste.
1.8L ¥3,960 Alcohol content 15% Raw material rice 100% Ginga from Iwate Prefecture Polishing ratio 50% Sake degree +2 Acidity 1.3 Since it was a 3-day weekend vacation, I stopped by a liquor store in Goshogawara City on my way home from Ajigasawa town and bought it at the regular price. It is a little acidic, but fruity and juicy, easy to drink, and tastes great 👌.
1.8L 3880 yen Alcohol content 15 degrees Koji rice Gohyakumangoku 55% Kake rice Gohyakumangoku, 100% Niigata rice 55% Sake degree +2 Acidity 1.1 It has been a long time since I purchased Beniju at an authorized distributor. It can be served cold to lukewarm, and it is easy to drink and tastes good, although it is a bit dry due to its light and dry taste. It is easy to drink and tastes better when lukewarm, with a softer dryness.
1.8L 3300 yen Alcohol content 14% Koji rice: Domaine Sakura, Yamadanishiki 50% Kake rice: Yamadanishiki 60% I had not yet drank Sentori, one of the two biggest brands in Tochigi Prefecture, so I bought it officially on Rakuten. When opening the bottle, it is better to hold the lid while opening the bottle as it has a gaseous feeling. It was sweet and sour and juicy. Surprisingly, there was no carbonation, so it was easy to drink.
1.8L 3190yen Alcohol content 16%Precipitating rice Gin no IrohaPolishing ratio 60%Nihon Shudo+4 Acidity 1.6 I bought this yesterday at a liquor store in Aomori city from an authorized distributor.
