First trip to Tohoku in a long time. I came across a roadside station in Oosasao, Fukushima, which is also known as Fukushima. The station is Japan's number one for gold medals and has a huge selection of products. It is also a fruit kingdom, and there are a lot of peaches.
So, I tried for the first time the Fukunoka, Utsukushima Yume Yeast, and Kohari Saori Touji's technique, all produced in Hongu, Koriyama City. Is it Fuku-girl? It is a perfect match for Fukushima peaches. The sweetness just snapped.

Good morning, WOM!
Good trip to Tohoku 🎵.
Fukushima is an unexplored area so I would like to visit there someday 😋.
I hope you enjoy the local sake and food 🤗.
Peach and sake looks fresh and good too 🤤.

ma-ki, it's difficult to post when traveling because I'm in a hurry. Peaches and sake sounds good.

Another bottle for my oldest son's return home. It was a purple Nabeshima. The bottle was opened with the promised pop. The fresh muscat aroma and slight bubbles are typical of Nabeshima. Compared to Hoshikai and Shichiguchiman, it was more bitter and sharp than sweet. Is the rich umami of the sake like Mr. Yamada's?
During the Bon Festival, the eldest son and his wife and the eldest daughter and her husband went back to their hometown, and it was like they had two parties.

Good evening, Mr. WOM!
It was a fun party with your eldest son and daughter back home 🎵.
I remember that Nabe's Purple was very fruity and delicious 😋.
It's a blissful time with your family 🤗.

Thank you, ma-ki-. It is really a blissful time for me as they each bring their grandchildren.

Nanakuchiman, a summer sake from Kuchiman that focuses on the terroir of Minamiaizu and the four-stage brewing of glutinous rice. Mild fruity aroma of Daiginjo and Utsukushima Yume yeast. The refreshing and pleasant bitterness of the base Gohyakumangoku and the sweetness of Mochi Rice Hime mochi.
We opened the bottle just in time for our eldest son's return to Japan. It made me smile. It is a sake that you can drink more and more.

Thank you, Jay & Nobby. In honor of my eldest son and his wife and grandson #1 returning home, we opened a bottle of Kangiku Hoshikai, Kuchiman 7 Kuchiman, and another bottle of Kuchiman, momentum is scary. We are currently enjoying the rest of the sake.

The trio of Kangiku summer sake is Hoshikai. It is sweet. Of course, it is not persistent. It is not refreshing, but it is not dull. The rice is comet, the pride of Hokkaido. Comet is said to have a light taste, but you can feel the deliciousness of the rice. It has a muscat flavor. The second day was even sweeter!

Good evening, Mr. WOM.
I see you are enjoying Kangiku 🎵.
Hoshikai is a really delicious sake and is the sake I remember when I became a fan of Kangiku 😋.

Thank you, ma-ki-! Kangiku-san, all of them are delicious and make me happy. I am even happier because I can buy it at a local liquor store. I plan to enjoy changing the taste today!

I saw an unfamiliar face at the usual restaurant! I heard that it is a small brewery with a capacity of 300 koku. If it is a sake from Hagi, Yamaguchi, this is a must buy. This is a new brand series for me. The owner says it is dry, but it is balanced.
It was definitely not dry, but rather a fruity sake with a strong alcohol taste and a good acidity. It is a harmony of Yamada-Nishiki, No. 9 yeast, and Yamaguchi 9H yeast.

Hello WOM 😃
Changyang Fookmusume! We'd like to have a bottle of it too. ‼️ I've never seen it before...

Nice to meet you.
I went to the brewery but they didn't have it 😂.

Thank you Jay & Nobii😊It was really a chance encounter. It's not so much dry as it is dry. It's not sweet, so I'm sure you will like it.

Thank you, Sakegen😊It is rare even in Yamaguchi. I am glad I could drink it!

This is fire-roasted, isn't it? Mild, but fruity and delicious. Good balance of umami and freshness. Mimuro cedar is a wonderful cedar. I am glad I could drink it again this year! The rice is Yamadanishiki, right?
Japanese>English
WOM
This year, we happened to bring Koraku's Summer Gin. The collaboration of Yamadanishiki and Yumeko is the same as last year. Perhaps it's my imagination, but this year I feel powerful. It is a feeling that does not lose to the heat of summer. It is a stable taste.

It's hot, hot days, but for a refreshing change, here it is. Wakamusume's Moeki. It has a nice cool, slightly sparkling piquancy. The rice is Yatan-nishiki and it has a gentle sweetness.

Hi WOM 🐦.
Wakamusume is delicious! I too think there is no shortage of Yamaguchi sake 😁Yatan-nishiki is also one of my favorites so far 🤭.

Thanks, Pon. That's right. They are all strong or masterful. They are delicious.

I don't buy until they run out of stock! But when I find a gap, I go on a sake patrol. Shinshu Kamerei is no longer available, and the owner's top recommendation? This is Yamazan, which is certainly as good as it gets. I bought it in the spring and have been waiting for a while. It is a Yamae-nishiki produced in Yaehara, Tomi City. It is a bottle that expresses the terroir of Yaehara. Is the slight bitterness a production of the rice? Is it the skill of the Kurihara toji? The delicious rice flavor comes from a nice, fresh aroma. It is perfect even in summer.

When grandchildren come, it is also the first grandchild. I love Yamagata sake, and when it comes to sake rice and snow goddess, there is no reason why it can't be good. The skill of Touji Goto was brilliant: gorgeous, fruity, sweet, and crisp. The rice was delicious, and I was glad to be Japanese. My son-in-law was also a great admirer. We enjoyed it very much.

On a three-day weekend, a daughter and her husband return home with their grandchildren. The son-in-law is a heavy drinker. This was the best choice for them. It was a very satisfying holiday.

The Omon Sake Brewery, a well-known brewery in Kita Echigo and Shinbashida, is a long-established, award-winning sake brewery. This was my first drink. This dream is a light and refreshing sake with a sense of maturity.

In connection with Chiba and Dewa Sanzan, this time it is Fudo. Compared to Kangiku and Aomi, it is a little more robust and flavorful.
It is delicious with a fruity taste.
But why is Yamagata's Dewa Sanzan used so much in Chiba? It must be a good rice.
Japanese>English
WOM
This is Dewa Sanzan, isn't it? I think there are many breweries that use Dewa Sanzu. It is a delicious sake that conveys the goodness of the rice, and until the third day, it is a slightly effervescent, completely adult cider. It is refreshing and delicious. After that, the sweetness and umami taste increased, and it became more and more delicious.

A refreshing taste brewed with Miyamanishiki. Nice aroma. It is sweet, refreshing, and delicious. You can also feel the acidity. It is summer!

It's been a long time since I've been to Hiran. This time it was a kagura made with Yamada Nishiki, which is a royal road. Nikomaru was good, but this might be the best one in the history of "Tobiran" for me. It has a refreshing aroma, perfect for the hot summer. I can't describe it in a typical drink report, like a pleasant sweetness and a refreshing acidity.
Japanese>English
WOM
100% Miyamanishiki, produced in Uonuma. This is amazing. It has a strong umami flavor and is easy to drink. I guess this is the royal road to dry sake. Echigo sake is really great. It's still hot. It's so hot that I think I'm going to drink too much.

Hi WOM 😃
It's clear and delicious 😋 That's a good dry wine ‼️
I've never had Tsururei-san before 🥲I made a note of it 📝.

Thank you, Jay & Nobby. I don't have an image of Tsururei as a dry wine, but I think this is a really good dry wine!

Nanadoro is the first sake brewing rice developed by Nara Prefecture. It is a derivative of Kaze no Mori's specialty, dewy leaf wind. It is brewed with ultra-hard water from the deep underground water of the Katsuragi mountain range.
I like all of Kaze no Mori, but this one may be my favorite.
Even after 4 days, the momentum of the opening pon does not stop. The sweetness comes voluptuously, but with a pleasant acidity. Perfect for hot summer.
My wife loves this one too.

Was it New Year's when I bought it? I thought I would keep it and finally opened the bottle, following the owner's advice that it would be best to drink it six months later. The rice is Iwate's best sake rice, Yunokou, and the yeast is Giovanni's research.
The slightly sweet aroma and flavor were just as sweet. The comment on the back label by the manager, Mr. Kadonosawa, who is trying his best to raise his children, is also somewhat amusing.
