I went to a liquor store for the first time and bought a label I had never seen before. The aroma is sour, grapefruit, and rummy. When you take a sip, it's a bit schwishy, not highly carbonated, but it goes down your throat! Delicious. Clear, not sweet, rummy flavor. Not sweet, but juicy 🍹. No clutter, the flavor itself is quite slender. It's more like a light sweet and sour rice soda, rather than a flavorful or expansive one. It's not that it tastes light, but it's hard to describe. The next day was much the same, and the clarity was amazing. The bubbles are rather fizzy, but they are not dry, and the taste is fresh and smooth. It is 16.1 degrees Celsius, which means it has a sharp taste, but there is not so much of an alcohol feeling that is hard to resist, and it is very easy to drink. It was like soda water or mineral water, a dangerous drink. For those who like umakuchi, maybe it's not enough? I liked it because of the taste itself, but also because of the type of mouthfeel and throatfeel it provides. It was my first brand and I'm glad I bought it!

This glittering cloud of muscular clouds...! I can't help but buy it when I see it. The aroma is sour, grapefruit soda. When you drink it, the aroma of rice comes in a flurry. The mouthfeel is a bit citrusy and acidic. It is light and easy to drink in a good way. After a few days, the aroma of koji-like rice increases. It has bubbles, citrus and fluffy rice sweetness, and a refreshing finish. It is a low alcohol that can be drunk without thinking too hard, and we are grateful for it. The third and fourth pictures are of a yogurt liqueur from Hachinohe Shuzo. It was previously only available in the prefecture, but they are now offering it outside of the prefecture starting this year. It was delicious, with a Hachisen-like aroma behind the thick yogurt. Matsuo's Jungin yogurt liqueur, which I drank before, was more like an adult dry yogurt with a bitterness and other sake-like characteristics. This one was more like a mildly sweet dessert. Both are delicious 🥛.

Honkin, brewed entirely with ingredients produced in Suwa, is said to be the first draft to be released in three years. The aroma is quite acidic. When you taste it, it is chili, juicy, rich, and acidic. It is very delicious. The next day, the chile-chile flavor subsides a bit, and the taste becomes richer. It has a soft sweetness and richness, a light flavor and acidity, and a clean mouthfeel. You can drink as many glasses as you want. After a few days, the sweetness and bitterness gradually increase, and the full-bodied astringency is felt slowly, and the beautiful acidity tightens things up. It was a highly satisfying sake that was both light and rich.

I had thought that the Aizu lieutenant general was Lord Yoho, but he is Masayuki Hoshina. He was the first lord of the Aizu domain who established the Aizu family code of loyalty to the Tokugawa family. Is the aroma melon? 🍈. When you include it, it is sizzling, mild melon. A little bit of magic inkiness is also felt. After mixing, the magic is reduced and it is clear rice. Delicious. As the day goes by, there is almost no magic ink, a bit of bubbles, rich sweetness comes for a moment, and then it is gentle and refreshing. After a few more days, the bubbles disappear and it becomes smooth. A little bitterness from the rice flavor. A fresh flavor like that of rumune is felt on the back side. This makes it easy to drink. It is a delicious sake that is very drinkable and fulfills my desire for Fukushima sake 🍶.

Origane, which is not part of the ROMAN series. The aroma is clean...scanty, herbal, like a breeze in the forest. When you drink it, you can feel the sweetness and flavor of melon and pear. Melon, pear, gentle sweetness and umami, and then a full-bodied bitterness. I still think there is a skimpy flavor in the back. When mixed with melon, the aroma seems to be neutralized and the taste is mildly refreshing. The next day, the flavor is a little calmer and more familiar. The aftertaste after swallowing is very refreshing, just like the first day. Like herbs? It is refreshing and delicious in a unique way. Is this due to the characteristics of the sake rice? I don't know, but I enjoyed it so much I ran out before I realized it was gone.

When I heard about Yamazan's new product, I ran to the liquor store. The aroma is mellow, rummy, and sour. When you take a sip, you get a fresh chili with a thick mouthfeel. It has a rich umami flavor, but it remains light and has a full-bodied sourness on the side of the tongue, and the end is crisp and clean. This is an amazing sake that establishes all of the following: dark sweet umami, juicy, fresh and light! As the temperature rises, a soft sweet aroma also emerges and the flavor seems to increase in gentle sweetness. The freshness remains the same. As the day goes by, the chirichiri-ness settles down and the sweetness and sourness of the rice is concentrated. Not only the sweetness, but also the overall flavor is concentrated, so it becomes more intense without losing its balance. But it is still refreshing. It's amazing. I wrote a lot about it, but it was just delicious 🍶.

Kaze no MoriALPHA8 大地の力原酒生酒無濾過

コタロー
It is said to be inspired by Nara Brewing's Kaze no Mori collaboration beer "UNDERWATER", so if you have a chance, compare the two. First of all, beer 🍺 (the description is happoshu). This beer was brewed using Kaze no Mori brewing water, yeast No. 7, and soya water. First of all, it has a very dark golden color. The aroma is strange...like koji mold. Quite a unique flavor. It tastes like savory strawberries...like amazake...what does it taste like if you drink it for the first time? It is a strange taste. And then there is ALPHA8🍶. The rice is not steamed, but instead is roasted like malt used to make beer, to encourage the decomposition of the rice. This one is also quite dark yellow, with foamy bubbles and looks like beer. The aroma is... aromatic, like barley, or whiskey? It also has a medicinal quality to it...like it has a certain atmosphere. When you take a sip of it, you can feel the fizz, the caramel-like aroma and bitterness like beer, and the sourness at the end makes you feel refreshed. It's kind of addictive. I wonder if 100% unpolished brown rice can produce this kind of flavor. It's a strange taste, totally different from what I usually drink, but it's interesting and has a refreshing aftertaste, so I can't help but drink it.

Hakurakusei山和星純米大吟醸

コタロー
I had it last year and enjoyed it, so I will have it again this year. They brew the sake in order, with Yamawa Sake Brewery in charge last year and Shinzawa Brewery in charge this year. The aroma was clean grape. When you take a sip, a fruity sweetness with a herb-like freshness comes through. At first, I thought it was sweeter than the image of Hakurakusei, but it was easy to drink with the nuance of a slightly sweet and refreshing food sake. The end of the bottle is also very sharp! It is not so sharp at the end, but it is pleasant that it disappears so beautifully. Even after a few days, it remains stable. It becomes a little mellow and settled, but the aftertaste is always clean and refreshing. I chose the hi-ire Sumi-shu, but I wonder if the orikarami nama-shu is a bit darker and fresher. I enjoyed it with a meal.

When it was first released, I saw some reviews saying it was still hard...so I let it sit for a bit. I wonder if the flavor is ready to be put into the bottle. The cork was safely opened. The aroma is sour, like a white wine. When I smell it from the glass, it has a sweet muscat flavor. It is a little bubbly in the glass. When you drink it, it is less acidic than the aroma at first, and has a light richness and a light sweetness. It is like being surrounded by grains of sourness. The taste is gradually sweetened, and finally, it is tightened by the acidity. The wine is full and balanced, yet smooth and weightless throughout, which is a consistent feature. The next day, the piquancy is gone, but the juicy richness has increased. The wine becomes a little richer, but still has a refreshing, skilful freshness that can be taken to be herbal. The day after that, it becomes a bit sweeter. For my personal taste, the flavor itself seems to be getting on top of itself right after the bottle is opened. I was wondering what to do this year, but I'm glad I got it. It was very tasty. ...I drank it so fast that I forgot to heat it up...even though it is a sake made from the same sake yeast....

Other brews combined with hops. Aroma: lychee, muscat, white flowers? On the palate, the sweet and sourness comes through directly without any alcohol. It is swishy and has great clarity. Being a hops craft saké, I imagined it would have a flavor like the rice and agave flower style I had before, but that one was more savory and this one might be sweeter. But it's a clear drink, so it doesn't hook me. Anyway, the aroma is good. It is like a sake (craft saké) to enjoy the aroma. Some highly aromatic sakes are sweet and leave a lingering aftertaste, but this one is probably because it comes from hops. It has a smooth and refreshing mouthfeel and does not sink into sweetness. It is not too much like an alcoholic beverage, and it tastes like a juice that you can easily drink on its own.

ORIGAMI ver. 🫧 of the liquor store's hanpukai as last year. If you look carefully, I didn't CI last year. The aroma is soft and slightly sweet with a hint of rummy and koji? When you take a sip, it's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! Slightly like pineapple on the back. But it is not as sweet as I imagined. It has the sweetness of koji, but the end is bitter and refreshing. The next day, the fizziness decreases...but it is still there. I thought the taste might lean toward sweetness over time, but it's not so bad. It mellows out a bit, and I can taste the richness and bitterness. It is juicy, light, dry, and delicious. Kangiku has an image of being sweet, but with such a refreshing taste, it is easy to enjoy drinking. I also liked the fact that it was sparkling due to the orikara flavor.

I was very curious about this one after hearing about the origin of the name from a Kabuki play. It's "hikakami" and "sukoroku sushi," so I knew I wanted to pair it with sushi. The aroma is rummy and sour. When you drink it, it is chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili, soft and fluffy sweetness. There is a light green apple-like fruity taste, but it is fruity! It is a sake made from rice, but not to the point of being fruity. It is gentle and refreshing. It is sweeter than expected, but it is pleasantly integrated with the gradual umami of the rice. It is a smooth sake that can be enjoyed with a strong taste, but it is a delicious sake that is best served with fish.

I really liked Miyazumi nigori, which is made with different rice, in the liquor store's hanpukai last year. I opened the bottle with high expectations because this one is also absolutely delicious. The bottle was opened with a very strong tap! The aroma was a hint of rummy. When you drink it, you can feel the sweetness and the sizzle! The sweetness spreads softly and the aroma of rice spreads. ...and that's all I have in my notes...but anyway, it was delicious. Needless to say, it was gone in no time at all. I would like to have this well-balanced rice soda again!

I went to a sake event that was being held relatively close by. I was surprised to see a bottle of sake that I had never tasted before. I forgot to take a picture of the bottle from the very beginning 📷 It's a refreshingly juicy and shuwa shuwa, which is typical of Abe. Yoshida Kurau Kijoshu Oak Barrel Sparkling Refreshing carbonation, like last year's Reconstruction Assistance Sake Orange. The lid on that one was dangerous, so this year's sparkling one is now crowned. Only for raw glasses. Slightly acidic aroma, sweetness and sourness. Yamagata Masamune Event Limited Sake This sake was brewed to accompany the blissful moment of soaking in a hot spring, surrounded by hot spring water, and accompanied by dishes made with local seasonal ingredients. It is juicy, refreshing, and easy to drink. The concept is too good, as is the taste - ♨️'s so CI📝 on this one! Kamo Kanehide Junmai Ginjo Limited Edition Lightly fruity, with a chirichiri umami flavor. Light, fruity, chirichiri-yumami, and refreshing. Tenzan Sparkling A slightly expensive version of Tenzan 🥂 Elegant, fruity rice, and dry. It was raining, but there were food trucks and other food trucks to enjoy the food 🚚.

Cherry blossom season 🌸〜is said, but last year's one.... Since we're here? I compared it with the Fireworks Cup 🎆 that came out in the summer. The specs seem to be the same. Cherry blossom cup 🌸 The aroma is slightly sour and fruity. When you include it, it is swishy like water. The light sweetness and sourness permeate the taste. The light fruity impression is not too slow and it disappears without any hesitation. Fireworks cup 🎆. The aroma is slightly sour fruity. When you include it, it's like water ......, isn't it the same? Taste, on my tongue, the same. Maybe. Anyway, both were delicious, fruity like Oumine, and light enough to be easily drunk outdoors. I feel 100cc is too modest when drinking at home, but maybe it's just right when you take it out. The cups are cute and nice 🌸🎆.

I missed it last year and wanted to drink it. I opened the bottle in anticipation of a spring sake that goes well with meals 🌸. The aroma is softly rummy. When you sip it, there is a light, light sipperiness and a gentle sweetness that comes softly. I wonder if it is pulled by the cherry blossoms, or if I somehow sense a flavor like sakura mochi (cherry blossom cake)...maybe I'm just imagining it. It has a soft sweetness, freshness, and a bit of saltiness? But it's still crisp and refreshing. This is the kind of flavor that you can gobble up without thinking... Kamokin, indeed 🍶. Was it really 16 degrees? It was so delicious that it went perfectly with a meal.

I was curious about the package and bought it without thinking. Both hands 🙌 with these mittens on and the scowling eyes are indescribably cute 👀. The scent is slightly fruity. When you take a sip, it has a slightly thickened, chili freshness, and a clear and refreshing mouthfeel. The sweetness seems to spread, but then the acidity finishes it off. It is easy to drink like water. It has sweetness, but it doesn't sink in, so you can drink it without getting stuck. Perhaps due to the low alcohol content, it is quite light, so it may not be enough for those who want to go all out, but it is perfect for a day when you want something light. The label also makes it a casual drink that can be enjoyed without being overbearing 🎉.

I saw the rave reviews on Sake-no-wa and definitely want to drink it! So I bought it. The aroma is pear-like and slightly fruity🍐...but not that fruity. When I take a sip of it, it is indeed an active sushuwaku! The pear flavor comes in softly, followed by the sweetness and umami of the rice, and finally a refreshing finish. This is delicious! It has the appearance of a flat, active nigori that goes well with Japanese food. It has a lot of bubbles, so it has a sharp and dry aftertaste, but it doesn't lean toward fruity, sweet and sour, or umami spicy dry, but rather neutral. I drank it in April, but it is still an active nigori in winter🫧❄️

The aroma is...what is it, grape? Sweetness. When you take a sip, you can feel the thick, thick mouthfeel with a hint of a splash of sweetness 🫧 The sweetness comes slowly in the clear mouthfeel, and then disappears with the acidity and bitterness. The bitterness seems to be rather bitter, but it is counterbalanced by the sweetness. It has been quite a while, but the freshness, acidity, and bitterness combine with the freshness and seem to tighten up the rich, sweet, and delicious flavor. As the day goes by, the freshness of the wine has calmed down, and it has become more mellow. The sweetness was firm like cotton candy, and the finish was more refreshing than expected.

We opened a bottle of Noto in Akabu, which we bought last year but kept storing it, wondering when we would drink it. The aroma was... tangerine? Rumney? When you drink it, it has a little chili, a freshness, but also a mildness, probably because it has been on the market for a long time. It's not clingy, but fresh and light, like citrus and cotton candy? It also has a taste of the atmosphere of Akabu. I wonder if it has become a little sweeter with the passage of a few days. The freshness has decreased, but the taste is still smooth and easy to drink. I enjoyed it while thinking about Noto.
