今までいろいろ飲んでますが、心機一転、今後の記録を取っていきます。 基本家飲み。お店だと開栓日とか、保存方法とかまちまちなので。燗酒セットも買ったので、向き不向き関わらずに試してみます。 自分用の備忘録ですが、もし参考になれば。

Meikyoshisui日本の夏純米
26
かつおThis is the first time I drink Meikyojo-jo-sui. It has a clear color and a slight sweet smell. It is easy to drink clean, with a slight sweetness and a moderate bitterness that wears off. It is quite easy to drink, as it is called "Japanese summer" and you drink it like water 😃. It seems to be lacking on its own, but on the other hand, it can be paired with any snacks. It is easy to drink but it is 15 degrees so enjoy it slowly 😋.

Senkinオーガニックナチュール原酒貴醸酒
25
かつおI have had a lot of Sentori, but this is my first organic naturals. I still haven't caught the rhinoceros beetle, and once I do, it's naturals. It has a slight yellow tinge, but is almost colorless. The aroma is that it is a noble sake, so it is stiffly sweet and has a hint of origami. A sip reveals that it is just like this! It has a fizziness and is sweet like honey, filling the mouth. It is sweet like honey and it fills your mouth. It is sweet, but it does not feel sluggish, and it wears off while leaving a pleasant mouthfeel. It is so delicious, you can't help but sigh. It can be enjoyed on its own. Today is Friday. I will enjoy it while chewing slowly 😋.

百黙純米大吟醸原酒無濾過
22
かつおI have newly registered. Kikumasamune is well-known, but it is a regional brand Hyakushoku, sold only in Hyogo. I guess you could say that it tastes so good that even if a hundred people drink it, it will shut them up. My family who went to Hyogo bought it for me. It is almost colorless and has a sweet aroma. This is my favorite flavor 🙌! It's so sweet and rich. It has a rich sweet aftertaste. This is the kind of sake that I would pair with snacks, or rather, it's the kind of sake that accentuates the taste of many drinks. It is sweet, but has a high alcohol content, so I would like to drink it slowly while chewing it. I would like to taste it again at a restaurant in Hyogo, the home of this sake.

Hanaabi山田錦純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過
27
かつおI drank the last Hanahayo Yoku that I haven't had in a while and it was so good that I got excited and bought it again ❗️. This time, it is an unfiltered raw Yamadanishiki sake. It has a slightly yellowish color and the smell is not so sweet. When you take a sip, a soft sweetness rides on your tongue and you can hardly feel bitterness. It is easy to drink like water, but it tastes so good that you can't help but sigh. You can also feel the richness, but it is not unpleasant, and the lingering sensation takes you further down the sip. I have prepared the best snacks, so I will savor it slowly tonight 😋.

Atagonomatsuはるこい純米吟醸生酒にごり酒
26
かつおI drank it last year, Harukoi. Rumor has it that it gets better every year. I was looking forward to it 🙌. First, the supernatant. Yes! I just can't get enough of this richness! Not too sweet and just the right amount of bitterness. There was a warning about opening the bottle, but it was fine, so I shook it. The amount of oli is not enough to fully mix, but I took a sip when it was just right. The sweetness was reduced, and it became a rich, sour, strawberry-like, fizzy cup, just as it looks. It's also quite low in alcohol content, so you'll be able to open a quart of this 💦. I'll enjoy it while feeling the soon-to-be-ending spring 😋.

Kubota純米吟醸にごり酒
27
かつおI knew that Kubota, the representative of light, dry sake, has been evolving year by year, or rather, has been releasing various kinds of sake according to the times, but finally, nigori is released! So I bought it without hesitation. The cool label gave me high expectations. There was about 10% ori, but I opened the bottle without any ori. The aroma was not so sweet, but when I took a sip, I couldn't help but notice how sweet it was! It is sweeter than expected. It has enough flavor, which I like. Mix it. It has turned pure white. When I mix it, the sweetness is suppressed and the taste is fruity and refreshing. I prefer to keep drinking this one 😃. The alcohol content is also low at 13 degrees, so it's a dangerous drink that I can enjoy it while sipping. Enjoy it while savoring it slowly 😋.

Shizengo特別純米生詰酒無濾過
14
かつおNature Township is all the rage these days. This is my first time in Kasumi❗️ It has a slightly musty color and an overwhelming sense of effervescence. There is not much carbonation, but it has a subtle sweetness and almost no miscellaneous taste. It is a very easy to drink sake. The alcohol content is low (13%), so you can drink it easily. When it's hot, I'd rather drink beer than sake! I would rather drink beer than sake when it's hot, but I think I can drink this one without losing out 🙌. I will savor it slowly so as not to drink too much 😋.

Glorious Mt.Fujiザ・プラチナ純米大吟醸原酒生酒無濾過
24
かつおIt was a very stylish label, and I was a little worried, but upon closer inspection, it was Glorious Fuji! And it's 33% polished rice from Snow Goddess! I have nothing but high expectations. Lately all I get is Glorious Fuji. But that's okay because it's delicious 🙌. It has a slightly yellowish color and that Eiko Fuji aroma. Sweet. When you take a sip, the fresh fruit-like sweetness hits you with a thump and flows easily without any unwanted flavors. This is the kind of sake that makes you want to be drawn in by the lingering aftertaste for a while. Although the alcohol content is a little high at 16%, this is a wonderful sake that does not make you feel it at all. It is a bottle that I would like you to try. Taste it slowly 😋.

Shichiken春しぼり純米生酒おりがらみ
34
かつおI had decided that my first sake from Yamanashi would be Shichiken, but I couldn't find it 💦. I just happened to find it and bought it instantly! It has a spring-like label and is orikara, but with a slight nigorigo. The aroma is gorgeous and not too sweet. When you take a sip, it has a slight effervescence. It has a mild sweetness that is not too sweet. A moderate bitterness passes through, and it wears off quickly without lingering. It is a pleasant and delicious sake. You don't feel the alcohol content that much, and you are deeply impressed by how delicious it is. Savor it slowly 😋.

Hououbiden初しぼり純米吟醸生酒無濾過
27
かつおI've been drinking Houou Mita for a long time, but this is my first time drinking Hatsu Shibori 😃. It has a yellowish color and a sweet aroma. This is sweet and rich in flavor. The label says it smells like young white grapes and lychee, and the sweetness with a hint of bitterness is just right. However, it has a high alcohol content, so it is very drinkable. Taste it slowly and thoroughly 😋.

Kokuryu垂れ口本醸造生酒槽しぼり
27
かつおFashionable black dragon. The hanging mouth is very promising. Sweet aroma and slightly yellowish color. There is a little sweetness, but the acidity is a little strong, and it cuts through the guttation. Slightly spicy. It is 17 degrees, so be careful not to drink too much 🙌 Enjoy 😋.

Toyobijin醇道一途純米吟醸おりがらみ
22
かつおMy favorite oriental beauty. And it's a creeper. It's sure to be good lol! However, there is only a small amount of Ori that can be seen. Almost colorless, with some suspended solids. The aroma is sweetness. Drinking. Wow, it is sweet, just like Toyo Bijin! Moreover, it has a more all-out, intense sweetness than usual. It is sweet, but it cuts through in a nice way. There is no bitterness at all. It is a stress-free and enjoyable sake. It is 16 degrees, so enjoy it with care 😋.

かつおI bought this at the end of the year, but I've been looking forward to it so much that I'm opening it now. First snowman☃️! Let's start with the supernatant. There's still some firing. It's a bit sweet. It's thick, and the acidity is strong. It has a pleasant bitterness. I mix it gently. It doesn't mix at all. There are a lot of orifices, so I could barely mix it. It is sweet, but the richness has subsided, and there is a moderate sourness and a mild bitterness that lingers. It's low in alcohol by volume and has a good amount of carbonation, so it's easy to gulp it down. My expectations may have been too high. Personally, I prefer Hirotogawa's Nigori. Be careful not to drink too much😋.

Hanaabi美山錦純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過
18
かつおIt's been a long time since I've had Hanayo-yoku. Before it became so famous, it was easy to find, and I used to buy it from time to time, not because I drank a lot of it, but because it tasted so good. I found it on sale in a set of two, so I bought it for the first time in a while. It is yellowish in color and has a sweet aroma. The sweetness spreads to the mouth at once, and it is rich and crisp. There is almost no bitterness, and it disappears as if nothing had happened. It's just like water, and it's a bottle you'll want to drink while eating something❗️. It's been a long time since I've had one of these, so I'll be savoring it and drinking it slowly😋.

Hirotogawa純米吟醸
28
かつおI've drunk a lot of Hirotogawa, but this is my first Junmai Ginjo. Since it is Hirotogawa, I can only have high expectations. It seems to have a high reputation. It has a slightly yellowish color and a slightly sweet aroma. It is not so sweet. It has a pleasant bitterness, a richness of umami that fills the mouth, and then a faint sweetness. The bitterness flows away quickly and the umami flavor lingers. I can't get enough of this richness. It is a delicious taste that makes you sigh with pleasure. It's not flashy, but it's an austere gem to savor slowly and carefully.

Takachiyo魚沼清酒 扁平精米純米大吟醸原酒生酒中取り
30
かつおThis is the first time for me to drink hiragana Takachiyo, which has a high reputation. It has a slightly yellowish, sweet aroma. The sweetness comes quickly, but it is much more light and refreshing than I expected. It's not too sweet. There is almost no bitterness, and the sweetness lingers in the back of the throat, flowing comfortably. It is actually 16 degrees Celsius, but it is so easy to drink that you don't feel it. It can be enjoyed on its own, but it makes you want to eat and drink too much, making it a dangerous drink. I'll enjoy it while savoring it slowly😋.

Glorious Mt.Fuji酒未来純米大吟醸原酒生酒無濾過
19
かつおMy favorite sake from Yamagata, my favorite Eikoh Fuji. The future of sake must be delicious, right? We opened the bottle with high expectations. It is clear in color and has a sweet aroma. The sweetness spreads to the entire mouth with full force. It's completely gorgeous, but it's not too sweet, and it's followed by a good amount of bitterness. The bitterness finishes off the pleasant aftertaste, so you can continue drinking. It's a great bottle that can compete on its own. I will enjoy it slowly😋.

Tedorigawa白寿純米にごり酒
23
かつおTedorigawa is a wonderful sake which is called "dry", but it is not so dry. It is the first time to drink the nigori Hakutobuki. When I opened the bottle for a moment, the turbidity came up and it was dangerous. I closed the bottle quickly 💦and as it says, the energy is alive😃. It doesn't have much of a smell, but it is pure white and cloudy. It is very fizzy when you open it. There's not much sweetness, the bitterness feels pleasant and cuts through quickly. The bitterness lingers a little, but this also invites you to have another drink. It's one that makes you want a snack😁. I've heard that it gets sweeter with age, so I'll be savouring it slowly😋.

かつおI'll be drinking the exact same drink at the exact same time as last year. I can't help but buy it when I see it, can I? I'm surprised myself. It's clear and sweet smelling. When you take a sip, it's just pure. It's clean and unadulterated. It's like water. It has almost no bitterness, a pleasant sourness, and a moderate sweetness. It's a dangerous sake that makes you want to drink more and more of it. I'm sure I'll get my hands on this one next year too😁. I enjoy it in moderation😋.

Hirotogawa純米にごり酒
30
かつおHirotogawa Nigori made its debut last year, and this year is the second time I've tried it. I usually go to the liquor store and buy the sake I come across without daring to look it up, thinking that sake is a fate, but for the first time in my life, I went to the store in search of this one and managed to get it when there were only two bottles left 🙌 too happy💧 I love the smell alone already, like sweet cream. Before stirring, the sweetness hits you hard and then a pleasant bitterness runs through it. The bitterness is so strong that you can't help but sigh when it hits you😃. After mixing, the sweetness mellows out and the bitterness subsides. It's so easy to drink. I think I'm going to drink too much while reviewing it like this. It's sweet, but not too sweet, and refreshing. It has a pleasant bitterness that makes you want to drink more 😋.
