My favorite brewery forest has changed its name to "Yuki no Mayu". My name is "yu*mayu", I was born on a snowy day ❄️ I feel amazingly close to you! Milky white. You can feel the freshly opened gas as you drink it. It has a gentle mouthfeel, but it has a feathery comfort that immediately makes you feel fluffy and good. The sweetness of rice without corners, the acidity of still green LaFrance and lychee. Slightly spicy aftertaste. I would love to have a sparkling bottle of this second fermentation in the bottle! Please, Naeba Brewery, please 🍾.

(If you go to Miyagi, visit Fujiwaraya in Sendai Station. This Uchigasaki Sake Brewery's Fujiwaraya limited edition sake "Toraya" is delicious and you can taste it for 100 yen ✨) This limited edition sake has the aroma of freshly made cotton candy floating in the air at a fair, with a hint of joa (plain flavor). The first sip gives off the sour taste of the joa. The sweetness and tenderness of the candy is nostalgic, like when you bite into a piece of cotton candy that is still a little too soft. This sake is fresh yet nostalgic. It's like going back to your Manamusume days. Sake degree -8 Acidity 1.4 Amino acidity 1.2 Rice polishing ratio 65 Yeast: Miyagi yeast Rice: Manamusume (Miyagi) Alcohol 14%.

Good evening, mayu. When I go to Sendai station, I go straight to Muto-ya 🫡It's like chomping down on a warm cotton candy 🫡The nostalgic taste is very appealing 😊Manamusume is a rice dish, which is also typical of Miyagi Prefecture!

Correction! The limited edition sake is Fujiwaraya. Be sure to try the Uchigasaki Sake Brewery's "Toraya", which is exclusive to Fujiwaraya, located on the second floor of the station building! Once you have conquered all of those other 100 yen tastings, move on to Mutoya on the first floor. Here you can sample about 25 kinds of Miyagi sake for a fee 😏.

Glittery pink label like neon 🩷. The series is said to be a new sensibility from the young sisters and brothers of Sato Sake Brewery. I had high expectations because of the good reviews, but it was even better than I expected ✨I can taste the clean water and the sweetness of the rice, but it's more cool than sweet. I really like the aftertaste. There really is none. Just beautiful, like the flow of a river, like plum blossoms flowing from a clear stream, very beautiful and fresh sake. The taste of the water is similar to the recent big hit "Mizuto Rice" 🩷I really like it.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. Yes, I really liked it (lol) ✨I heard that the rice is a food rice from Saitama called Sai no Kizuna, and I would like to try this rice too.

100% Hitogochi grown in our own rice paddies. It has the roundness and depth of organic cotton candy. I like Tochigi sake because it has the softness and sweetness of water. Beautiful, round sake to be drunk slowly. This sake is from Tajima-cho, Sano. An acquaintance of mine from Sano said that the taste of Sano ramen could not be made without Sano water. I know what that means 💧✨.

Hi mayu😃. Tochigi's sake 🍶 is good 🤗. I think the expression "round sake" describes this sake perfectly 😌. I've never had it though 😆.

Jay & Nobby, all sake from Tochigi is gentle and kind, but I wonder if the prefectural character comes out in the taste. Thank you for the sake, grown with love from the rice ✨.

I am a fan of secondary fermentation in the bottle. The bubbles are quite fine, ranking high among second fermentation sake. The silky bubbles are wonderful, but the taste is disappointing. The Miyasaka I just had was so good 🥲.

Gentle origami that goes well with a sharp, mid-meal taste. It is carefully crafted without roughness. The full-bodied flavor is mild, but the sweetness of the rice is still felt. Local Miyagi and Atago's Matsu evolves rapidly, but the base remains the same. Ai💓

It hit me! Pale white peach and pineapple juice, and the sheer sweetness of the sweet sake that envelops them. The smoothness. The sizzle of the middle. Oh, this is a total trickle💓. The combination of Aisan and No.7 yeast, always a hit! I had something like that before but can't remember 🙃.

I was born in Yamagata, Japan and read "first green" as "first grandchild" 😅because it looks like it in my handwriting 😂I got this guess from someone in Gifu 🍶. It is made from Gifu Hidahomare whole sake and is served cold (room temperature). It is said to go well with fried shrimp, ginger yaki, and other strong-flavored dishes, but this sake is just as rich and full-bodied, so you don't need an entrée to enjoy it. The ginjo aroma is impressive, with a moist, cocky, pear-like flavor. Speaking of pears, the Tama Nashi Yokan from Kawasaki City, which is only available this time of year, is as delicious and impressive as the pear itself ✨✨. It makes a yellow curtain on the glass wall, looks delicious even when aged 😋. Postscript. I drank it cold, the pear flavor faded and you got the graininess. I like this one better cold.

This is my favorite sake I have had recently. It is so pure and heartwarming. In a good sense, there is no bitterness, pungency, sourness, or anything like that. There is really nothing at all, but it is enough. Only a clear, gentle sweetness soaks through, and the saliva glands salivate ✨. It is said to have won various awards including a silver medal in the Junmai Sake category at the IWC 2024 Wine Awards. For women and foreigners who are new to sake, you can't go wrong with this. Drink it in a wine glass. It would be a great alternative to cheese, ajillo, or white wine 🍾.

Maybe too sweet for Jay & Nobby. I told the staff at Asano Sake Shop that I wanted a bubbly or lees-based drink and this is it for me 😅I thought I'm not good with white wine types and it ascended. I won't go against your recommendation anymore lol.

It's a nice shwashy feeling! This taste is pineapple core! This is the sake I was looking for right now after a sweaty work day 🫧 foamy pineapple 🫧. 100% En no Mai sake rice from Shimane Prefecture. Second fermentation in bottle, 13% alcohol by volume. Low alcohol but not watered down 😋, so I felt a strong sake flavor 😋.

Sake from Nobeoka, my dad's hometown 🍶 The atté is a tsu-bo-zuke (pickles) purchased at the Miyazaki Products Museum. It is thinly sliced dried daikon radish soaked in soy sauce. My grandma's handmade tsu-bo-zuke is so good that I can't stop eating it 🥢. The alcohol content is 12 degrees. It's like sake with just one ice cube. It has a thin sweetness, a gentle sourness, a smoothness without being fussy, and a southern breeze. I wish I could go to Miyazaki. 🏝️ Now 3 more prefectures to go. Kumamoto, Oita, and Okinawa, and I'll conquer the whole country!

There was sea urchin. The series to check the taste at room temperature was followed by a sake, which was apparently a Kanazawa souvenir. A sip at room temperature. It tastes like sea urchin. There is sea urchin. It tastes like Beyond Tofu, like the sea urchin in the tofu section of the supermarket. When it is cooled down, it still tastes like sea urchin. Kelp broth, sea urchin, and a hint of grain. Is it sea urchin clear soup? This is my first time tasting it.

Continuing from the last time, we get to know the taste of room temperature. I find that room temperature tastes better on the tongue, and this one has sweetness and sourness, followed by a sharp taste. I'm not very good at this "kick", so I always chill it, but I enjoy it at room temperature, too. The next day, I chilled it and drank it! Sake with acidity and umami is best served cold!

The other day, I stopped by a liquor store in Tokyo, where I was sitting next to a Yonezuru Sake Brewer, who also stopped by on a whim. Aside from that, I bought this limited edition Yonesuru at a supermarket in Sendai. I drank it at room temperature, and it was absolutely delicious! It tastes like Yamagata rice! The sweetness and umami of the rice gently caresses my throat. I realized that I am still a bit of a bitch for always wanting a cold one. This one from Seven. It goes well with sake, so I feel like hoarding it.

Good evening, mayu 😃. Seven's cup side dishes are excellent 🤗There is one store right next to my house so I call it "my Seven" and it's very useful👍. The grilled mackerel is a good choice for the next time I have a drink! I'll put it on my list of side dishes for the next time I drink 😙.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! I hope my Seven has it. I think this entrée is a champ with sake and white rice! I've never had much else because of my single-mindedness (lol) I also like hijiki and tofu stew!

Tasted two kinds at Mutoya in Sendai Station. Left: (1) Gold raw glasses only. It has a smooth taste with no stickiness and a moderate acidity. More than that, most sake with gold dust in it does not contain that much gold dust, but the amount of gold dust in this one is huge and large! It's gold leaf. Is this a good price? Right: Hitakami Junmai Ginjo Gin no Iroha Daccha This is the last production this year due to product review. It is a Junmai Ginjo made from Miyagi ingredients. It has depth, umami, and a sweet aftertaste that lingers for a long time. You can enjoy this lingering taste for a while. I'll upload the glasses one for now, but both of them are my mom's favorite taste, and she raved about them! (I prefer junmai ginjo with about +1 nihon-degree)

We moved to Muto Sake Shop in Sendai Station (lol). Here you can sample about 30 kinds of Miyagi sake only (400 yen). I chose these three types. (1) Snowy Matsushima no Shirokuma ♡. It has the sweetness of nigori itself, but it is also a summery sake. The gasiness is pleasant and it lands with a refreshing taste 🫧. 2) Mizutoriki Omachi Omachi has a full-bodied breadth and umami. Sake from Kesennuma with Omachi, what a delightful combination 😍. (3) Otokoyama's Soutenden We already know this is delicious. It has a smooth, unctuous, flowing watery flavor that everyone will enjoy. This is also from Kesennuma.

100 yen tasting, Fujiwaraya in Sendai Station. Tasted Ichinokura's summer sake. It was light, sweet, and right in the middle of the flavor. It's so good you don't need anything else, but edamame and yakko are good too! The POP says it goes well with yakitori (sauce), but it goes well with anything 🌻.
