This year's GW was mainly for rice planting, and the only one who came back was my second son who was transferred to Nagoya. Speaking of Aichi, this is the one. This is a brand name that is too cool to be true: "Two hares, two hares, only one can catch two hares. It seems to be the one commemorating the 10th anniversary of its birth. Thanks to my son who bought me a nice bottle. It has a pleasant and refreshing ginjo aroma. Muscat? When I drank it, the sweetness and acidity came through and it was delicious. It is really delicious. Thank you very much. It seems to be different from the usual Ni-Rabbit, but I don't know the usual Ni-Rabbit, so I would like to drink it from now on.

It was given to me as a souvenir. A cup of Manotsuru sake. It is a real sake that does not look like a cute little egret. It is a sake full of rice flavor. Are there many brands named "Tsuru"?

I have been wondering when to drink this sake since I bought it. It is the A-Un one of a set of two bottles of A-Un named Masterpiece of the Laughing Season. I guess I should have compared them together. I forgot to post that I drank it on New Year's Eve because "A-Un" means "end" or "break" in Japanese. I decided to post this post to say that you should drink sake casually and post it casually. According to the note, the aroma is good. It has a good aroma, acidity and smoothness. In short, it was delicious. The grandchildren came and it was gone in no time. The rice was Watafune No. 2 from Kasai City, Hyogo Prefecture, produced by the Toyokura Farmers Association. It is the father line of Yamadanishiki. The yeast is No. 6.

Vice Shogun, who gave me a souvenir, is Ogawa yeast. Also known as Meiri yeast, No. 10 yeast. The rice flavor from the fragrant, apple-like ginjo light. It was not a "hey, hey, hey" kind of sake, but rather a modest one. It was not like a "Hiei, Hiei Ororo," but rather modest.

I kept it in the fridge for a year. This is delicious. It has been a long time since I have had a Genmai, but Miyamanishiki, was it this sweet? Is it the fresh and mild melon aroma? Anyway, smooth and soft. And it is sweet, elegant sweetness, or perhaps an unstoppable sweetness. And it is properly quenched by a slight bitterness. No wonder it is so popular. I wish I could go to Nagano.

I was going to try a quick drink party like at Pon-chan's place, but both of the drinkers were weak and the refrigerator was limited, so I ended up giving up after two bottles of Junsei and Romanchi. I had been curious about Hanami Romain. It is sweet, elegant, and full of rice flavor. 13 degrees is also good. It is delicious. I thought Romain was a modern type of sake, but the label says it can also be served warmed. The sake rice is Yumeko, a rice developed in Fukushima Prefecture, and the yeast is produced in Fukushima Prefecture.

Good evening, WOM 🦉. Hanami Romain, as you say, is delicious and full of flavor 🌸I'm a fan of low alcohol that is very drinkable 😁. I'm a bit of a jabberwocky so I'm taking all the precautions before the event 😂.

The sake rice is Aiyama. Yes, the one known as "diamond. It is produced only in Hyogo Prefecture, and Kasai is a famous production center. Tomikunishiki Aizan. Slightly sweet aroma. The first day it was solid with a slight effervescence, but from the second day onward, the rice sweetness was well expressed, and it was delicious. It is a superb wine. The slight bitterness at the end is also nice.

The third bottle we planned to bring to the consolation party was a bottle recommended by Sugakyu Sake Brewery, which we stopped by during our business trip to Akita. Chokaizan by Tenju Shuzo, which focuses on local rice. Ichihodzumi, whose parents are Koshitanrei and Akita Sakekomachi. It is said to be limited to Akita Prefecture as the production is still very small. It is said to be light at 14 degrees, but it is not thin and is properly delicious. It has a faint aroma of apple. The sweetness comes in a nice way, and the finish is a bit bitter.

The second bottle we planned to bring to the consolation party was Inagawa Fukunoka by Inagawa Sake Brewery, which is only available in Fukushima. We bought it at the brewery. It is made from "Fukunoka," a sake rice newly developed by Fukushima Prefecture. It had a beautiful rice flavor from the slight ginjo aroma. Delicious!

I retired from my position at the end of March, and my regular drinking buddies held a party to celebrate my retirement. This time, we brought our own sake to an all-you-can-drink restaurant, which was a bit of a luxury, or rather, a consolation party, and this was a bottle from Fushimi, a major sake brewery in Kyoto. The sake rice "Celebration" from Kyoto, yeast, and Kyo-no-Koto. The yeast is from Kyoto and the water is from Fushimi. Mild apple aroma. It is gentle. Smooth, with a hint of sweetness. A refreshing aftertaste. It is a sake that makes the most of food. Thanks to my friends. There are two more bottles.

The Hinamatsuri ban was lifted on the first cherry blossom day of the Hinamatsuri festival. The cherry blossoms are also in leaf, and the bottle was opened more than one month later than usual. It is hard to feel like spring is in full bloom this year because of the three cold and four warm days. Thanks to Mr. Hidakami, it is an enjoyable dining table. This is a bottle of sake that has made me aware of the depth of Japanese sake. The refined ginjo aroma is created by lavishly refining the top-grade Yamada-Nishiki to 45%. The acidity is the backbone of the flavor when it is served snow-cold, but as the temperature rises from hana-cold to hiya, it becomes mellow and delicious with rice.

I've taken the liberty of using pinkish labels as my spring sake, and this year I've been able to get what I want to drink well. This is the second time that Abe-san has been associated with pink. Of course it is very good, so I paired it with curry because it has the riceiness of Takananishiki, but also has a slight apple-like aroma, sweetness and bitterness, and is also very shwashy. It was a perfect match!

The liquor store near my house is very particular and knowledgeable about sake. He carefully selects sake from outside of the prefecture. There are some well-known ones, but Sasasamune has been in stock since last year and seems to be a favorite. This was my second bottle. Soft and gentle is the perfect word. It is not too much like Fukushima. It has a gentle and elegant taste. I'm a fan of it.

I bought this drink in the fall of '23 and drank it in the winter of '24. It was posted in the spring of '25. Even though it is hiyaoroshi. I have been thinking about it for 3 years. I love natto, maybe even more than sake. I also like Miyagi sake, so I opened a full bottle of this that had been in the back of the storage refrigerator, because an acquaintance with ties to Miyagi Prefecture came over. When I was in Sendai, I ate Sasanishiki with raw egg on regular natto, not Kawaguchi natto, and did not know how good sake could be. That was 40 years ago. How flavorful it is to see this sake like this now. Of course, it is largely due to Mr. Kamata of Kinai Sake Brewery, but it tastes even better with the thoughts of Mr. Kadoden of Kawaguchi Natto, who produced the rice, nostalgic days in Sendai, and many other things riding on it. The rice is delicious. I couldn't help but take another bite.

Sake is junmai, even better when heated. Legendary, which we saw at the sake store Yamanaka in Osaka Station. The yellowish color gives a sense of maturity, and the caramel aroma is nice. The red turtle is also cute. The use of all sake brewing rice is also excellent. Sake-like acidity and umami. Not a warmed sake, but good. I am glad to have met Shinkame.

A souvenir from a business trip to Niigata. Neige cup ⁈Neige is a Tokamachi's yurukyarakara, a snow fairy. I bought it at Niigata Ponchu-kan. I assumed that the old man was collaborating with Sanrio or some other character, so I did a lot of research and finally found out. I think it is well made. I heard it is also used for the snow firefly trail in Matsunoyama Onsen. And this sake Matsunoi's Junmai sake is solidly delicious. Cup sake is very deep.

Is this a spring sake? I feel like I've been drinking more spring sake if it has a pinkish label and looks like that, but I'm drinking it during the cherry blossom season, so it must be spring sake. It seems to be a local brand originally made by Takachiyo Shuzo. At 13 degrees, it's easy to drink, but lightness is probably not its strong point. It has a fruity aroma, but the sweetness is restrained and the lightness remains, which is typical of Takachiyo and Niigata. It is delicious. The rice is Takananishiki and Gohyakumangoku, another Niigata iron plate.

I know it's late, but the first spring sake is Kamo Kanehide. My second son, who was transferred to Nagoya, bought it for me at Okadaya. It is delicious! Maybe the best sake this year. The sweetness is elegant with a fresh aroma reminiscent of bananas. The taste is a little sweet and a little bitter. It's like spring in my mouth! The rice is Omachi and Chusei Shin-Senbon. It is quite an interesting combination.

It is really a super sake. Nobukoshi is a variety created by Nagano Prefecture through crossbreeding. Recently, Nobukoshi Sake No. 557 debuted as Yumemi Nishiki, while Nobukoshi No. 190 was improved by Akita Prefecture in 1963, more than 60 years ago, as a brother to Miyamanishiki and Takananishiki. It is a collaboration between Nagano and Akita. It seems to be descended from Kame-no-o, and may be a perfect match for Yamagata. It has a gorgeous aroma and a refreshing taste. It is so light that it is hard to believe that it is 17% alcohol. It is super!

For the 8th bottle of the Sake Rice Study Group, I wanted to have one that the fierce participants had never had, so I offered this one, which I had purchased on a trip to Hikone, at a liquor store called Hayashiya. The entire bottle is pressed in a wooden tank bag, the rice is low-polished, and the rice is Hinohikari produced in Omi. It is full of stories. Hinohikari was developed by Miyazaki Prefecture 35 years ago to replace Koshihikari in the hot Kyushu region. It is a wonderful rice that anticipates the current heat wave. It is moving further and further north. As for the sake, hmmm, this is totally different from Shinmasa, etc. Caramel type? Certainly sweet. Ripe fruit aroma. It was a unique world view.
