WOMThe last of my nigori festivals is Shiwa Sake Brewery's Shiwa Mizutama label from Shiwa Town, Iwate Prefecture. I have loved this brand ever since I drank it as a souvenir from a business trip to Morioka. I had half given up hope of buying it someday, but I found it at a liquor store that I liked. The owner told me that he had known this brand since the Great East Japan Earthquake. The rice used was Ihyakumangoku from Ishikawa Prefecture, and the yeast was Giovanni's research, a collaboration between Iwate and Ishikawa! I had no choice but to buy it. It seems that they are already selling sake to support the Noto Peninsula earthquake relief efforts, which makes me weep for the warmth of the people. Well, Nigori Matsuri, first of all, the bottle was opened! The bottle is instantly cloudy without even a pause to appreciate the "Ori" dance! White magic. After about 10 minutes of opening and closing the bottle slowly, I finally poured it into a glass. The aroma is banana-like. The fizzy feeling is also nice. The freshness of the fizz and the mild sweetness are nice, and the weak bitterness at the end is also good. Delicious 😋😋😋.

WOMThe second runner-up in the WOM Family Nigori Festival is! Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori from Matsuzaki Sake Brewery in Ten'ei-mura, Fukushima Prefecture. The brewery's toji (master brewer) collapsed during the Great East Japan Earthquake, making sake brewing temporarily difficult. The brewery's successor, Yuko Matsuzaki, was just 26 years old and won a gold medal at the New Sake Competition in his first year, which is very well known. He has since won a series of gold medals in rapid succession! The strong commitment to the original sake rice from Fukushima, Yume-no-Ko, is also well-known to those who know about it. The Noto toji-san will surely recover as well! So, the rice used for this nigori is Yumen-no-Ko. Reviewed by T.KISO, Director Ugh! Maa! trouble (used with suffix -san or -sama) endearing term for unrelated older woman (after a noun, adjective-stem or plain verb) just keeps on ... harmony fur (on one's belly, neck, etc.) (used with suffix -san or -sama) endearing term for unrelated older woman unintentional ‼️ The opening of the bottle is a gradual loosening and tightening of the cork, gradual, automatic stirring, the opening of the nigori orgy show. The aroma is mild, with a slight fruitiness. And then, the fizz! Slightly effervescent does not begin to describe it. The sweetness was moderate and bitter. My wife also said that Miyakanbai has sweetness and Hirotogawa has bitterness as its strength! It is hard to say which is better.

WOMWe must drink it well to support the people of Noto! While we are trying to reduce our inventory and make it available for purchase when it is restored, it seems that the sake breweries in the prefecture are also working on rescuing the remaining sake. Now, in the spirit of everyday life and peace and quiet, I will also be holding a nigori festival. I had a lot of trouble deciding, but these are the three I have in mind! They are Miyakanbai, Hirotogawa, and Murasakukan in the prefecture recovered from the Great East Japan Earthquake. First of all, they have recovered from the Great East Japan Earthquake! First, Miyakanbai, Winter Time, whose sales have increased five-fold since the Great East Japan Earthquake. The sake rice is Miyamanishiki, a specialty of Kanmei. The bottle was opened with a cap with a hole in it, but you cannot be too careful. The bottle was opened slowly, and the aroma was of refreshing fruit or citrus. The first thing that comes to mind is a mild version of grapefruit juice when you take it into your mouth with the oriel firmly entwined. Slightly effervescent, with a good balance of sweet, sour and bitter. Delicious! It was silky. The supernatant will be served after tomorrow. The first pageant was held 38 years ago, and I still remember the excitement of the pageant. The sparkle of Senmaida azalea will surely return!
Japanese>English
ポンちゃんGood evening, Mr. WOM 🦉. I've been wanting to drink Miyaganbai at home for a long time, but the stores that carry it are too far away... 🥺I'd love to try it too 😊I'm off to see the sake in Tohoku too 😊.
Japanese>English
まえちんGood evening, Mr. WOM 🌃😀 Finally the nigori festival has started 🥳🎉It's a lineup of three sake from the prefecture recovering from the Great East Japan Earthquake 😀 Miyaganbai nigori also looks delicious 😊.
Japanese>English
ジェイ&ノビィHi WOM 😃 I love the peaceful nigori festival 🤗. I was told that I should definitely buy WINTER TIME at the Tohoku Sake-no-wa year-end party the year before last, but I haven't been able to buy it yet due to timing mismatch 🥲It looks delicious 😍.
Japanese>English
遥瑛チチHi WOM 😃 This is a great drinking comparison project ❗️ The three prefectures affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, but there are breweries that have made a great recovery! I hope Noto's affected breweries will also share this power ❗️

WOMPon. Thank you! Miyakanume, it is delicious. The sweetness is refreshing. The slight bitterness is also good. It is delicious from the very first cup.

WOMToday is the first time in a while to drink at home. Okunoto sake is quite scarce, but it is still available at the supermarket. So here is what I found. Kazuma Sake Brewery is the youngest brewery in Ishikawa Prefecture and is a big brewery in Okunoto, along with Sogen, with aggressive capital investment and work style reforms. It was partially collapsed by the earthquake and flooded by the tsunami, To our surprise, Atago no Matsu and Hakurakusei's Shinzawa Sake Brewery will be bottling the sake from the surviving tanks in Miyagi. For more information, please visit the website of Kazuma Sake Brewery! This sake is brewed with Gohyakumangoku from Noto, yeast collected from seaweed in the sea of Noto, and a focus on terroir. The aroma is sweet, with a nostalgic feeling of rice or candy, perhaps due to the yeast. The taste is sweet and acidic, with a lingering bitterness at the end. I am an amateur, so please forgive me for my impression. The flavor expanded dramatically when it was heated. It has the taste of Noto Toji!
Japanese>English
勉強中Good evening, WOM ✨ I saw the article about the Miyagi sake brewery acid going into the area and bottling. I was very moved by the article about how they were cheered up 🥺 It's great to help each other in times of need. It was heartwarming to see how some people are doing evil 😊.
Japanese>English
WOMMr. Studying. Thank you. I need to drink more and more alcohol. I have to take care of my health, though. I was reminded of that.

WOMThis is a past drink. I bought this sake directly from the brewery in Takoshima, Suzu City (the northernmost sake brewery in Ishikawa Prefecture), which I visited on business. The sake has a taste that exudes Mr. Sakurada's personality and the kindness of the Noto people. The taste is like dashi (Japanese soup stock) and is perfect for simmered fish. It had just recovered from the Suzu earthquake of May 2023. According to the Asahi Shimbun Digital, "We don't know yet in what form we will be able to reopen, but it is hard to imagine leaving our hometown. If possible, I want to continue making sake here in Suzu." This is the feeling of all sake breweries in Noto. We will continue to support them.
Japanese>English
na2Nice to meet you! I have a good friend's family in Takojima and I saw the situation that was affected by the disaster... The people in Takojima are in an environment where it is a miracle that they have life.... I want to support you too, because you still want to make sake even in such a painful situation 🥲.

WOMNA2. Thank you! I would like to extend my sympathies to my best friend. I know many of my colleagues and acquaintances have also been affected by the disaster. In such a situation, I am troubled to post my drink, but in the rear, my thoughts are with the affected areas and that it is important to be cheerful and normal. Drink and cheer!

WOMI can only express my gratitude to the many people in the Sake-no-Wa community who support us by drinking Noto, Ishikawa, and Hokuriku sake. As I was in charge of only a small part of the logistical support work, it was difficult for me to drink at home. I feel the importance and gratitude for the ordinary, everyday life. Today is my first day off in two weeks, so I went to visit some of the liquor stores that have been taking care of me on a regular basis. I stocked up on Noto sake, including sake from outside of the prefecture, in the hope that it would help the sake community. I'll introduce that later, but for now, here's a past drink. This is Sogen Hiyoroshi Ishikawa-mon. Sogen, which boasts of having the largest stone value in Okunoto, has a large number of items. Ishikawa-mon is usually a very crisp sake, but as one would expect from Sogen, it was mellow and soft, with a strong umami flavor. According to the Ishikawa Sake Brewers Association, 10 of the 11 breweries in Okunoto have given up production for the current season. I will do my best until Sogen comes back.
Japanese>English
ヤスベェGood evening, WOM 😀 I'm sorry to hear that you're having a hard time drinking at home due to the difficult situation and your work 😀. I also have an experience in my previous job that I had to travel around the disaster area for more than a year to respond to the Hanshin earthquake 😅.

WOMIn fact, today is my last birthday in my 50s. Of course, there is no birthday celebration every year, but my family bought me a cake and sake for this occasion. Yoshida Kurau Pray & Snow This sake is brewed with gratitude and prayer for the snowy mountains of Hakusan. I drink it with my prayers overlaid on Noto. It has a mild banana or melon-like aroma and a light, smooth taste. It may be a little bitter. The sake rice is Hyakumangoku No Shiro. It is the best of the Yoshidagura u series with a rice polishing ratio of 30%. Goes well with cake.

WOMThere are many ways to enjoy Sake-no-Wawa, and many ways to support us. Support by drinking, support by donating money. Today, I visited sake stores in Kanazawa and found that many bottles were broken. I realized that there really is damage in many places. Here is the situation of a sake brewery in Noto that was providing us with our enjoyment. The following is a quote from the FB of Hoshitaro Asada-san, a former employee of Sogen who is now working on sake brewing in Italy. Quote from here To summarize the situation of sake breweries in Noto, 10 of the 11 breweries we were able to confirm were either completely or partially destroyed. They will not be able to recover this year and need support from donations. Matsunami Brewery: Totally destroyed Sakurada Brewery: Totally destroyed Tsuruno Brewery: Totally destroyed Hiyoshi Brewery: Totally destroyed Sogen Brewery Landslide Kazuma Brewery: Flooded by tsunami Shimizu Brewery: Half destroyed Shirafuji Brewery half destroyed Nakajima Brewery half destroyed Nakano Brewery half destroyed Nakano Brewery: Unknown, still isolated End of quote So, from Noto sake's past drinking unposted. Hiyoroshi of September 2021.　R2BY, I think. Made with Gohyakumangoku from Wajima, Noto. It is a traditional hiyaoroshi aged in the warehouse temperature. It was perfect with mushroom dishes. Some people say that heated sake is also delicious.

WOMI wondered whether or not to post this, but I am posting today, New Year's Day, to say that I am safe, and because of the importance of being routine and a little calmer. I drank alcohol in the morning. A big shake while I was paying a visit to the temple for the first time in the afternoon for just one drink. As a preface, the sake rice is Hanasoui, developed in Aomori Prefecture. It is suitable for daiginjo and is also used for Hyakushoku. It is characterized by the sweetness typical of tashu, a slight acidity, and a bitterness at the end. This is the quintessential Nishida sake brewery. By the way, sake breweries in Noto seem to have suffered considerable damage. To those who were affected by the earthquake, please accept my deepest sympathies.

WOMThe fire in Wajima seems to be very serious, and we are very worried because there are sake breweries such as Shirafuji, Hiyoshi, Suehiro, and Shimizu.
Japanese>English
しぇり〜WOM, I am glad you are safe. It sounds like it was a pretty big earthquake, so we have to be careful about aftershocks. I was in the farthest place from Ishikawa, so I had no idea about it. I pray that daily life will return to Hokuriku soon.

WOMMr. Shieri~. Thank you very much. Not only Wajima, but Noto is likely to suffer considerable damage. We would like to provide whatever support we can.

WOMThis is the last one for this year! Fruity and fresh, not fire-roasted. I have no complaints. I will have it with soba noodles from Shinshu Soba Shin. Have a happy New Year! The sake rice is new face Yamae Nishiki from Nagano Prefecture. The aroma is more gorgeous than Hitogokochi, but the taste is more ricey. But this is Okazaki-san's technique. It was the best New Year's Eve.

WOMMy quick-tempered colleagues gave me a gift for the birth of their first grandchild next year: a bottle of Tohoku Meisho's Hatsusun and this! The birth is next year, but since I drank it this year, I thought I would post it here before it's too late. Sweet > Slight acidity. Aroma of oak barrels, indescribable taste. This is a drink of another dimension. My wife's favorite.

WOMWhat happens this year will be posted this year. Finally, we are going to have grandchildren next year. And when I told my colleagues at work that it will be almost at the same time at my oldest son and daughter's place, they gave me a present. It was a bit early in the year, but I was grateful for the gift. The aroma is gorgeous like a daiginjo, but like Miyamanishiki, it has a nice balance of sweetness and umami with a dry, crisp taste. Very tasty. We also had Shinmasa and Yonotori. To be continued.

WOMFinally, our family is holding a winter sake and nigori festival! First up, the three grains of Daimine, the winter's first. Kanazawa is now completely snow-free, but this was taken last week in the snow. Needless to say, muscat-like fruit aroma. Sweetness, acidity, and a sense of sharpness. It is more beautiful than nigorigo. A delicious winter has come.

WOMHow would you like another round of strangling? Gorin appeared on the menu. The concept of this sake is to be served during a meal, and it is certainly modest. Mild compared to Tengumai. Probably, it is not a Yamahai sake. Serve with warm sushi with milt or conger eel.

WOMHajime-san. Next is one of the brands I wanted to drink this season. Mimuro cedar orikarami. It has a good balance of flavor and synergy with the rich flavor of Kabako crab. I feel like I'm about to enter an endless loop. I enjoyed two kinds of sushi with Kabako crab: the crab side with the inner roe of the ovary and the outer roe of the roe carefully mixed together and the sushi side with the sushi rice. I was so happy.

WOMDrinking out is an indescribable pleasure paired with food. Enjoying sushi. Ichihajime is a disciple of the famous Taihei Sushi in Kanazawa. The sushi is exquisite. For sake, the proprietress recommended this one from the amberjack Tsumire. It is super spicy, but not just spicy. It has a fruity taste and is a ginjo. Delicious. By the way, does the "7" stand for No. 7 yeast?

WOMI lined up 4. 4 bottles to bring to the end of the year party. The most popular one was this one, which I introduced as "just like a melon" based on Jay & Nobby's report, and many people commented that it really was a melon and was easy to drink. I hope it will help spread the popularity of sake. The sake rice, Hyogo Kitanishiki, is for the Tajima region, where it is difficult to produce Yamada Nishiki. It is similar to Miyamanishiki.
Japanese>English
ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Mr. WOM😃. We would be more than happy if our poor review of the melon series could help you to expand your circle of sake drinkers 🍶🥹. Well, the best thing is the power of Banshu Issen Shippo series 🤗.

WOMJay & Nobby. Thank you very much. Since the next day, I've been getting a lot of inquiries about where I can buy melon liquor. and inquiries came in one after another. It stung more than the difficult talk of iso acetate or capric acid. I suggested a recommended brand. Spread the word, Sake-no-wa!

WOMThe company's year-end party No. 3, where we prepared various types of sake for comparison. 60 people attended the party and less than half of them liked sake, but it was well received. Ichinen Fudo Hiyoroshi. The rice was Yumesansui, developed in Aichi Prefecture. I think it is a descendant of Gohyakumangoku. It is absolutely popular among sake lovers. It was a very colorful party.
