The 45th home brew of 2024 🍶.
The Seven Crown Horses of Shimane Prefecture, Summer Cool Seven🐎.
As a horse lover, I'm very attached to this brand 🐴.
The brewery has a connection with Simboli Farm, which produced Simbol Rudolf 🍶.
The taste is clean and dry, and I think it would go well with strong flavored food! I enjoyed it while thinking about horses, thank you for the drink 🙏.

The 44th bottle of home brew in 2024 🍶.
Prototype, Ganki from Yamaguchi Prefecture.
It is low in alcohol (13%), but it is not light and has a solid sweetness, umami, and acidity, making it a very drinkable bottle 🤤.
The simple, transparent bottle gave it a summery feel. ☀️ Thank you for the drink 🙏.

The 43rd bottle 🍶 of home drinking in 2024.
Iwanoi from Chiba, first time drinking it. I got it from the hanpukai 😎.
The aroma is subdued, the taste is slightly spicy and dry with a slight throat hit. The bottle is blue and refreshing with a summer feel, enjoyable for both the tongue and the eyes! Thanks for the treat 🙏.

The 42nd bottle of home brew in 2024 🍶.
Sugiyuu's summer cat 😼 package is cute 😆.
The taste is slightly dry, without much sourness or bitterness, with a crisp and clean aftertaste 🤤.
I wonder if it's because it's made from the original sake brewery that it's not too dry and has a bit of weight to it. Thank you for the treat 🙏🙏.

The 41st bottle to drink at home in 2024 🍶.
This is the 9th generation Otafuku sake from the Fukuhara Sake Shop's hanpukai. It's a rare sake that hasn't even been registered on the Sake no Wa app yet 😌I would never have had the chance to drink it without the hanpukai 😎.
The aroma is slightly fruity and the taste is umami + slightly bitter and crisp! It was delicious 🤤.

39th bottle of home brew in 2024 🍶.
Fourth of four bottles opened at our regular sake party 🏠.
Fukkai no Bangai 🌊 which I got from Fukuhara Sake Shop's hanpukai with Fukuda Sake Brewery being the most westerly brewery in Japan. I like that kind of thing 😎.
I've had Fukkai before from the hanpukai and thought it was delicious because it had a nice "sizzle" to it, but this one was a slightly different type without the sizzle, but it was delicious with just the right amount of umami and sharpness 🤤.

The 35th bottle for home drinking in 2024 🍶.
Shikishima's light nigori. This is the first brand I've had at home 🏠.
Shikishima seems to be generally made with a high alcohol content, and the one we drank this time was also quite high at 18%🙈.
It's a good drink, but if you get carried away and drink too much, you might get very drunk 😇.

The 34th bottle to drink at home in 2024 🍶.
Haneya Tsubasa's Hanpukai limited edition nigori sake 🪶.
I haven't had Haneya since my trip to Toyama, but it's still delicious! 🤤.
It has a pleasant ginjo aroma that only a junmai daiginjo can have, a strong flavor with a hint of orikori, and yet it still has the crispness that is typical of Toyama sake 😋.
I would recommend this brand to everyone 🪽.

Purple space cotton candy label🍬.
This is an annual challenge tank, so it seems to be an aggressive brew with a different taste from the standard sake ✊.
No aroma, just a sweet 🍬 taste 🍬 Alcohol 9%, maybe we should think of it as a slightly different drink from sake?
I know some people like this kind of sake, but personally I thought it was a bit different 🤔Thank you for the treat 🙏.

Seasonal Ryusei Peach Label 🍑.
The aroma is quite fruity and peachy 😏, with a hint of banana? It has a slight banana aroma 😏🍌.
I thought it would taste sweet, but when I drank it, I found that it tasted like a sweet type of sake. The taste is the opposite of what I expected: it is slightly sweet, with just the right amount of astringency and acidity, and has a dry, chili-like taste. It is light and refreshing without being heavy, so I think it would go well with strong flavors.

This is my 31st bottle of 2024 🍶.
This is my first Sairai from Saitama Prefecture for home drinking 🤤This brand has become quite popular and I think many stores sell it with restrictions 😳I like the sound of the name, it has a beautiful and delicate atmosphere 😌.
The taste is somewhere in between sweet and spicy. It has a sweet mouthfeel with a crisp aftertaste. If I had to decide whether it is dark or light, I would say it is rather strong and dark.
To help you remember the differences in taste, I'm going to add this to the list of flavors! Based on intuition 🤪.

30th bottle for home drinking in 2024🍶.
Fukkai by Fukuda Shuzo. I've had Nagasaki sake before with Hiran, so I guess this is the second brand I've had?
The taste is similar to Sancho, Kaze no Mori, and Abetto? I thought so! It had a gaseous taste and a moderate umami sweetness that made it easy to drink and was quite a favorite 🤤.
This might be on my personal list of sakes to repeat 😎.

Kameizumi CEL-24, regular Hachitan Nishiki 🌾 as there is no sake rice listed.
I've had it outside but this is my first time drinking it at home 😎.
The sake is -15 on the sake level, so it was quite sweet 🍬 It was delicious, but I personally would have liked a bit more crispness 😼.
