Abukuma Honjozo 15% koji 65% kake 70% 1.8 liters 1980 yen I bought a bottle when I went to Fukushima. It is very sweet. It is sticky and clings to the tongue unpleasantly. It has a strong alteness. I'd rather drink it hot than lukewarm. Abukuma has a good image, but I would have had a better impression of this brewery if the honjozo was good. I searched for it and found it at a reasonable price of 1980 yen for a bottle! The sake degree is plus 1, so the taste is quite sweet, but if I had taken the price into account, I might have given it a higher rating. Rating 3.2 (out of 5.0) 20240421

Banjo Kotobuki Junmai Ginjo Yume no Kou 55% 15% 1.8L 3,150 yen This sake is made at the Nagai brewery in Yamagata. Purchase at the brewery in Namie. It is a little peculiar. It has a bitterness. It does not seem to be popular with women. But I think it gets better day by day. Or rather, I am beginning to understand it. It has a strong and mature taste. The more you drink it, the more you get used to it. Slightly warmed up is good. It's the kind of sake where your co-worker has a few quirks, but when you talk to him, he may turn out to be a surprisingly nice guy. Rating 3.7 (out of 5.0) 20240416

Iwaki Kotobuki Yui Akaban Omachi rice 100% special junmai sake 15% 65% Shin Gin Seibai 720ml This sake is said to be a bonding sake born from the exchange with Akaban City in Okayama Prefecture. It has a simple taste but good acidity. It has a light acidity and elegant taste. It is also spicy and delicious. The rice is polished to a fine "shagin" (fine rice), which reduces the amount of impurities and makes the sake clearer, and even with low polishing, the sake quality is said to be at the level of ginjo-shu. On the way to this brewery, we encountered an earthquake of intensity 4. The staff at the adjoining roadside station said they could hear the earth shaking. Rating 4.0 (out of 5.0) 20240412

Yamamba Oshu Ishikawa's local sake 19-20% brewed alcohol 720ml 1345 yen Purchased at a roadside station in Fukushima, Japan, from the Wakashimizu Sake Brewery. It has a golden color and an aroma of maturity.　When drunk, it is lightly aged, with a slight acidity like plum wine. My first impression was that it did not have much depth, but the more I drank, the better I felt. It is soft, yet has a rough, spiky taste. It is more like a whiskey than a plum liqueur. There is no mention of the polish, so I wonder if it is a blended sake. Surprisingly, it hit the mark despite the label. There will be another repeat. It was ranked 6th out of 13 at the Kinshokai.

Gojin Musume Natural Sake, as squeezed, Junmai Nama Shudo Nama Shudo 70% Kame-no-o 94%, Miyamanishiki 6% 720ml Nama sake with no yeast added. It has a perfect lactic acidity with a touch of gas and orikara. The lemon sour and fruit peel sensations make you gobble it up at a fast pace. The third day, when the gas is gone, the taste is still outstanding. Shizen-shu" is made with rice grown without pesticides. And all brands at this brewery are unfiltered. It is also the brewery that produces my favorite Katori sake. This brewery is of a high level. When you think of natural sake, you may think of sake from other prefectures, but I definitely prefer this one. No, I think this brewery and I go well together. Rating 4.3 20240403

Horaisen Bessen 15% 60% brewing alcohol 720ml 1155yen Purchased at a convenience store in Nagoya. It is dry with acidity. The alcohol taste is too strong and sharp. It has a coffee and shochu taste. The brewer's alcohol in this Bessen is made by the company itself. I don't know how much it affects the taste, but if the discomfort I feel is reflected in the quality of the sake, I would suggest not brewing your own sake. Brewing alcohol is usually made from sugar cane or corn, but this brewery distills sake lees. When I saw a blogger's article from 2017, the ingredients were described as "shochu" instead of "brewer's alcohol. I wonder if they dared to use "brewing alcohol"? It is safe to drink it hot. The price is cheap, but it is appropriate. The best Horai-izumi is "Kai. （The best Horai-izumi is "KABE" (可、べし). Rating 3.4 (out of 5.0) 20240329

Shinkame 2016BY Junmai-shu 15.5° 60% 720ml Sake with a strong old sake feel. It is like a peculiar barley shochu (Kanpachi for example). There is a store called "Snack Tani" in the triangle of Sangenjaya, and the aroma like coffee shochu and too persistent barley shochu smell fight each other. It also has a bitterness like chocolate, But it's not the kind of taste I look for in sake. But it is not the kind of taste we want in Japanese sake. When it is heated up, the bitterness expands and it is a little better. It's also a little spicy. But it's still a bit harsh. Rating 3.4 (out of 5.0) 20240325

Myokozan Unfiltered direct kumi-junmai ginjo nama-genshu 17-18% 60% 720ml 1804 yen The body is solid and dry with a sharp taste. It is a masculine directly pumped raw sake and has a powerful flavor. It has a grape-like fruitiness that women might like, and the flavor is full and delicious. It is my first time drinking it, but I quite like the taste. The brewery uses soft Myoko-sen (Mt. Myoko) water from the basement of their factory. Myoko, but there is also a brand called "Echigo Oyaji," which all breweries have for local old men who like to drink. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20240321

Hinode Tsuru Junmai Ginjyo Miyamanishiki 60% 15% 720ml 1980yen We also bought a bottle of Honjozo at the brewery, but it was a completely different impression. The Honjozo was a little peculiar. This one is bitter with concentrated flavor and acidity. It is not at all dull. It is not flashy, but rather calm and delicate. The sweetness is graceful and has the taste of a first-class sake. The rice is local Miyamanishiki from Hitachiota. I found out that the heir who returned to his hometown had designed, brewed, and engineered the sake in a new attempt. I guess old-fashioned sake is fine, but only a handful of businesses are at the forefront of it. This sake made me want to support new attempts. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20240317

Hakusen Yamahai Junmai (fan) 65% 15% 1.8 liters 2200 yen This is an obscure sake brewery in Chichibu, but its history dates back to 1728. It is dry and has an iron-like acidity. The Yamahai is only noticeable if you ask for it, but it is not harsh. It can be drunk neatly. It is quite dry, so it is quite good as a food sake. It is a cosy product, priced at 1100 yen for a four-pack! I may repeat this if I see it again. Rating 4.0 (out of 5.0) 20240309

The sweetness has a fruity flavor of apples and pears. After the sweetness, it tastes dry and tight. It is as expected. After a few days, when the gas is gone, it tastes light and flat without much sake flavor. It is better to finish it by the second day after opening the bottle. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20240305

Shirakiku Aged Sake Honjozo 15-16% 70% 1.8ml It is like a plum wine with a moderate sweetness. It has a peculiar taste. And it has the maximum seme feeling. There are days when you can enjoy it, and other days when your body can't handle the peculiarity. This kind of sake should be heated. Yes, I can handle it this way. But as it gets to room temperature, it gets more and more peculiar. I wonder how long this sake has been aged. If it has been aged for a long time, it should be written on the label. I tried to check the brewery's information, but it went bankrupt! They went bankrupt! It's a good thing I went to the brewery last. It's a pity, because the Junmai Genzake was a delicious sake with a good price. Rating 3.5 (out of 5.0) 20240301

Morimasu Shiboritate Junmai-shu, 18% 70%, unfiltered raw sake, 720ml, about 1600 yen A little gassy. The freshly squeezed, unfiltered sake is still very good, and it stimulates the tongue with a sharp taste. I have the impression that Morimasu has a strong alcoholic sharpness even in junmai, but the roughness is emphasized in a good way when it is muro-nama. It has a seme smell and a fruity, fresh flavor. The aftertaste is somewhat cloying, but I don't remember Morimasu being this good. I don't really appreciate it when it's fired, but it's good when it's fresh. I've had a second look at it. I'll buy a bottle of Morimasu draft again. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20240226

Momogawa Junmai Ginjo-shu 60% 15-16% 720ml 1584yen My father bought this at the Co-op. It has a sharpness, but it is also mild and caramelly. It also has a hint of bitterness. It is good as a food sake and is a safe sake as expected from Momogawa. My father, an old man, was pleased with it. Aomori yeast and Momokawa yeast are used. I looked up the characteristics of Momogawa yeast, but could not find much about it on the Internet. We were taken care of by a sales person at the brewery of Hinode Tsuru. Memories of the trip.

Shirakiku Junmai Genjyu 16-17% 60% 720ml 1000yen approx. Purchased after visiting a brewery in Ibaraki. It is made from "Niji no Kirameki" from Ryukazaki City, Ibaraki Prefecture. It is sweet but not cloyingly so. The aftertaste is pungent and astringent. It is easy to drink, although it has a strong alcoholic taste. It is hard to believe that it is a cheap sake under 1000 yen. It is inexpensive and will be a repeat purchase! Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20240219

Hinode Tsuru Honjozo 70% 15% brewing alcohol 1800ml 2420 yen We stopped by the Isaka Sake Brewery in Ota City, Ibaraki, to purchase this bottle. At that time, a sales representative from Momokawa in Aomori told my father that we were currently drinking Momokawa, which made him happy. I am grateful for the encounter. The rice for this honjozo is Chiyonishiki. Pour it at room temperature. It is thick and clings to the rim of the glass. The taste is full-bodied, sweet, and mellow. It has a slightly strong character, and the miscellaneous tastes are a little bothersome. It would be better if it were warmed to lukewarm. I heard that there is also a draft of this sake, but I can't imagine what it is, so I'd like to try it. Rating 3.6 (out of 5.0) 20240214

Takeba Junmai Shizuku Unfiltered Nama-shu Noto Gohyakumangoku 60% 17% 720ml My wife bought this sake on a business trip to Kanazawa. Good taste. It is still recorded as 2024, so it must be a little after the Noto earthquake. It has a sharp gaseous taste. It has a refreshing bitterness. I can also feel the greenness of leafy greens. It tastes great even after a few days. A good sake tastes good even when the gas is gone. To be honest, if it has gas and is still fresh, it tends to taste good. I often hear enthusiasts say that sake has deteriorated after three days, but I think that's simply because they think that gas = good sake. Truly delicious sake does not deteriorate after three days. Come to think of it, even a famous izakaya called "Kurokado Yakyu" has a bamboo leaf. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20240203

There is a tingling gas from lactic acid, and a depth of sweetness with an elegant wagashi feeling. The lactic acidity remains pleasantly after passing through the throat.
