Nishibori Aka Foil Short-stalked Watabune, reduced agrochemical rice sake, ginjo-non-filtered raw sake, jozo alcohol I personally like these labels. Many people who are not familiar with "Nishibori" may know the brand name of "Monsai Huzue". This is my first time drinking Nishibori, and it is delicious. It is a sake with a good flavor and sharpness. Short-stalked boat" is the parent of Yamada-Nishiki, a precious rice that has been revived in the modern age. I have not yet fully understood the characteristics of the taste, but I have the impression that it is lighter than Yamada. There is not much information about Nishibori on the Internet, so it may be that only a small amount is produced. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20230421

Vice Shogun Junmai Ginjo 60% 15%, 720ml, 1,320 yen It is clean and moderately dry. It is good for a mid-meal drink because it is a little light. If you are tired of "Umakuchi", you should try this "Vice-Shogun". M310 makes ethyl caproate, but I like it because it doesn't smell bad. Rating 4.0 (out of 5.0 perfect) 20230416

Hanaboe Yondan Yamahai yeast 2016 70% 17% 1.8㍑ 3630 yen Purchased at a sake shop run by a stubborn or twisted old man near Togoshi Park in Shinagawa Ward. But reliable lineup. The four-stage brewing process concentrates flavor and sweetness. It is juicy and has perfect acidity. It feels like you are eating the fruit. Although it is labeled "2016," it does not have a strong aged aroma, but more of a malty taste. I could drink a whole bottle without a drop. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20230413

Iwao Junmai Ginjo 15-16% 55% 720ml 1747yen Delicious sake at room temperature. Dry, umami, stable. +You can feel the sharpness at +5. I like Iwao a lot. I've been to the Iwao brewery, or rather to the company, and I fell in love with the Showa-esque atmosphere of the place. Wai no Yao. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20230410

Tomiou Junmai Ginjyo Quantities of Nama-ginjo-genshu 58% 17% 1.8 liters We visited a sake brewery in Fushimi, Kyoto. Tomiou's sake shop was crowded with people. I was curious to buy a bottle because it was popular and sold by weight. I expected it to be poured from the tap, but it was bottled and handed to me. The sake was sweet and strong, with a solid structure. It has a strong sweetness and a solid structure, with a hint of ginjo. At the sales counter, you can also buy rice such as Milky Queen produced in Kyoto Prefecture. Is Milky Queen rice a sake rice? Rating 3.5 (out of 5.0) 20230408

Hatsukasumi Unfiltered Nama Shu Junmai Fully Fermented 2022BY 15% 65 Purchased at a roadside station in Nara. Since 2016, they've been sticking to the namahashiroku style of sake making. Does that mean this sake is also a nama yeast? I like the acidity with lactic acidity. It is round but not heavy. I like the label on the back. I got a good one. The Katsuragi Brewery of Hyakugakumon and the Chiyo Brewery of Shinomine are said to be relatives of this brewery. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20230405

Ancient Capital Fukubitori Special Junmai 65% 15%, 720ml, 1,540 yen Purchased at a brewery in Kyoto. This sake was created through crowdfunding by Corona Kairazu. Made with Kyoto-grown Yamadanishiki. Elegant finish typical of Kyoto. Light. A well-balanced sake with just the right mix of sweetness and spiciness. The label depicts two storks. It tastes like a souvenir sake.

Jurakudai Winter Limited Ginjo-Arabashiri 60% 17% brewing alcohol 1.8 liters 3575 yen I stopped by Kyoto on a whim and bought this at the brewery. It is a well-known sake of Kuranosuke Sasaki. It has a ginjo aroma. Slightly dry but with a fair amount of sweetness. The quality of the sake is robust. It is very rich. The yeast used is "Kyo no Koto," a ginjo yeast. The ethyl caproate is not my favorite yeast. Rating 3.5 (out of 5.0) 20230401

Tokun Kinmon Iris Cup 15%, 180ml, 270 yen I bought this cup as a golf souvenir in Chiba. I drank it with a very strong taste, but it is good. It is refreshing but has a country flavor. The rice is "Fusakogane". I have had a few Fusakogane, but I have the impression that it has a refreshing finish. The design is simple and refreshing enough to keep in your pocket.

Echino Hachiho Echigo sweet Junmai-shu, 4-step brewing, 15-16% 70%, 720ml, 1091 yen I often drink Echino Yatsuho as a regular sake at Beniton, a chain izakaya in my neighborhood, but this is the first time I have purchased it at a liquor store. Beniton's sake is a simple dry sake, but this bottle is "Echigo-no-sweet". The first sip gave the impression of a trendy flavor. It is slightly thickened and the sweetness of the four-step brewing process is recommended in a glass of wine. At -10, the value is also fairly sweet. I guess a dry one would suit my constitution better. It is a subsidiary of Ozeki since 1986. The low price is appreciated. Rating 3.6 (out of 5.0) 20230329

Kuromatsu Kenrishi Special 17% brewed alcohol 1.8 liters 2816 yen This is a standard sake often seen in supermarkets and purchased as a return to its origins. It has a yellowish color because it is not filtered very much. It has a unique flavor, with a rich, umami-kuchi taste and a slightly caramelized sweetness. It is good at room temperature or warmed. I can understand why some people don't like Kenrishige. It's a bit sticky and cloying. I try to drink my old favorite sake on a regular basis. My taste buds may change with age, or the quality of sake may change. Rated 3.4 (out of 5.0) 20230326

Snow Kayasha Yamahai Junmai 65% 16% 720ml 1485yen I think I got this from a friend in Akita. I'm still reviewing sake from a year ago, so my memory is a bit fuzzy. A little yellowish? It is full and slightly mellow. Light acidity lingers in the mouth. Of course, Yamahai is perfect heated. The sugar content seems to increase. Even those who don't like Yamahai can enjoy it.

Shichibonjari Junmai 80% Polished Rice Nama Shu 80% 16% 720ml 1705yen This sake brewery from Shiga Prefecture has been focusing on low-polished rice since 2004. The freshness and acidity are outstanding. This is the original taste of grains. It seems to be a sample of a low-polishing sake. It is also spicy and has a nice aftertaste. I would like to repeat this again. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20230315

木戸泉 非売品 15% 500ml  醸造アルコール モノトーンなラベルに「Not for SALE」の文字。これは木戸泉酒造に行った時にもらったもの。タダなのだ。もちろん数種の酒購入して。タイミングも良かったのかもしれない。 開栓してグラスに注ぐとだいぶ色が付いてる。熟成のオイニーが分かる。 ミリンと果実が上手く合わさった味。 ウイスキーのようなスモーキーさがこれまたいい。 多分ブレンド酒なんだと思うけどこんな美味いのタダでもらえるなんてほんと嬉しい。旅の思い出になりました。 評価4.3(5.0満点中) 20230313

Katori 2021 Junmai Namaishio 80% 15% 720ml 1309 yen Purchased at a select organic store in Sancha. Made with pesticide-free rice. The sticker on the label says "Nironi" and I wondered what it was, but it turned out to be NINO-NY (2021). The color is quite amber. It has a spiciness on the tongue and an acidity that reminds one of vinegar. And it has a nice aged taste. This is amazing. The warmed sake gives it more of a "sake yeast" feel. The rice seems to be a blend of various varieties, including an unfamiliar one called "Yukikawake. I confirmed that it can be purchased on Amazon.com, and I think it will be one of the top sakes I drank in 2023. Rating 4.4 (out of 5.0) 20230310

Tokaimori Yosaburo Junmai Super Dry 65% 15% 720ml 1320yen My wife's father bought this sake at the brewery. I'm going to choose this one! It is labeled with a handsome thief wearing a tenugui (hand towel). However, it is good for eating. It is dry and dry, with a sharp taste. A man's sake. The rice is from Chiba Prefecture. To Kaizakari has an image of a rough sake, but this sake has the goodness of it too. The best dry sake. I wish dry sake would come back to the world again. Rating 4.0 (out of 5.0) 20230307

Zuikan Junmai Namahashiro Yamadanishiki 70 Long-term aging  70% 15% 720ml Price unknown It says "Matured over 4 summers". I am looking forward to drinking it. I think I bought it at Big Yosan, a supermarket in Kanagawa Prefecture. The rice is Yamadanishiki from Hiroshima. It has a herbal bitterness and a certain level of spiciness. The astringency has a touch of sake yeast. The brewer's yeast is a delight. It has a clean impression without any smell from aging. It is said that this brewery produces a lot of Yamada 70.
