Nakamuraya Junmai Ginjyo Nama-nama Sake Shiboritate Koji 55%, Kake 60%, 16%, 720ml, 1760 yen There is almost no gasiness, and the strong ginjo yeast accentuates the umami. The aftertaste is quite sweet. The ginjo aroma is a little off-putting, but is it Kanazawa yeast? This brewery is also involved in organic rice and produces a brand called "Akira" with the name of a farmer on it. Rating 3.6 (out of 5.0) 20230301

Sincerity Junmai-shu 15% 65% 720ml 1430yen I saw this brand for the first time at Togoshiginza station, so I bought it. This brewery brews "IWANOI". This is a "white label". There seem to be dark blue, green, purple, etc. It is light, mellow, and slightly dry. Good for eating. Impression is a little thin. Rating 3.8 (out of 5.0) 20230227

Koshino-Shiratori Junmai-shu Limited Dry Nama-shu 18% 70%, 1800ml, 2750 yen Purchased at a liquor store in Kamata. It is from the "Yamama" brewery. It is said to be freshly squeezed sake. It has a robust mouthfeel with a melon-like sweetness and a dry aftertaste. It has a strong body, but I got a little tired of drinking it. Rating 3.7 (out of 5.0) 20230223

Kaganoi Daiginjo 45 15% 45% Takananishiki, brewing alcohol 720ml 2200yen Kaganoi Daiginjo, a sake from Itoigawa, Niigata. It uses medium-hard water, which is rare in Niigata. The hardness of the sake quality is not very apparent. It is full-bodied and mellow, with a strong ginjo character. It has a richness for a Niigata sake. It has umami and sharpness. The brewery burned down in 2016 and has been rebuilt, but the Noto earthquake has had almost no impact on the brewery. Rating 3.7 (out of 5.0) 20230219

Tengumai Junmai Junmai Sake Yamahai brewing 16% 60% 720ml 1650yen A representative brand of Ishikawa Prefecture. It is one of my favorite sake. Gorin of this brewery is also good. It is full of the characteristics of Yamahai brewing, and has a rich, full-bodied flavor. The color is slightly bright with a hint of bright golden yellow. I am glad I bought a bottle. It seems that the recent earthquake had some impact on the brewery. Although the brewery was not destroyed by the earthquake, the brewers' homes were damaged and the brewing schedule was delayed significantly. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20230215

Gen Dry 180ml Gen by Wakatsuru Shuzo. The details are not clear. It may be a souvenir sake. The concept is to make a dry sake that you never get tired of drinking. It is said to have a cool design suitable for dry sake. It is probably a regular sake. Even the standard sake seems to be made from Toyama Gohyakumangoku. It tastes as easy to drink as it looks. It is hard to guess the name "Wakatsuru," but it is the same company as Naekaya. Toyama Prefecture must have been shaken by the earthquake. Rating 3.7 20230211

Shimantugawa Junmai Ginjo-shu, Tosa Tanrei brewing, 14-15%, 60%, 720ml, 1100 yen My father bought this at the Co-op. The light blue bottle gives the impression of a clean taste. It is light and dry, classic and easy to drink even for the elderly. Personally, I prefer it slightly chilled. The rice used is Yamada. I wonder how they can make such a low-priced Yamada, even if it is a special grade A rice or produced in a different region, or mass-produced. This is 1,100 yen! I prefer this one to the sweet-amami Yamada. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20230208

Ryoseki Uraginmon 16% 60% 720ml 1098yen This sake was given to us by a friend in Akita. The label has a luxurious feel, but the price is unbelievable. Assemblage is a blend of sake. It is a blend of sweet, spicy, bitter, acidic, and various other flavors without fighting. The sake rice is Gin-san, Chihomori, and Yume-obako. Sake degree +2.1 You must also drink "Yuzawa Ginmon" which is an Omote Ginmon. Rating 3.9 (out of 5.0 perfect) 20230205

Kaze no Mori, Rohafu 507 Junmai, unfiltered, unpasteurized, 50% 16%, 720ml, 1799 yen I dropped by Yajima Sake Shop in Chiba and bought Kaze no Mori. It is a Junmai Daiginjo in terms of specifications. It has a strong fruitiness and sweetness. I prefer the dry Akitsuho because it is a little too sweet. The 50 in "507" is a 50% yeast and the 7 is a No. 7 yeast. Rating 3.9 (out of 5.0) 20230201

Yaetsuru Nigori Sake 18% 74% brewing alcohol 720ml 1265 yen A tax return gift from Furusato. Set of 2 bottles with non-nagori sake. Fire-brewed nigori sake. The taste is milky. It is as fine as a silk bath in a super public bath. It is not too salty and is good for eating. The richness is modest. The rice is Kyo-no-Shineki. Cosy. Rating 3.5 (out of 5.0) 20230126

Matsu Midori Ryo Junmai Ginjo-shu Nama-shu, 55% with Kawazu-zakura yeast, 15-16%. The bottle was opened in January 2023, having been produced in February 2022. It has a refreshing gas. The sweetness and acidity are in perfect balance. The fact that it has been laid down for a while gives it a sense of maturity. I like basically dry sake, but this Ryo is good for sweet sake. I want to drink this sake every year. It is made with young water produced in Ashigara, Kanagawa Prefecture. Kinuhikari is also quite good. Rating 4.3 (out of 5.0 perfect) 20230123

KIZURA Special Junmai Ginjo 16% 60% Yamadanishiki 50% Omachi 50% 720ml 1250yen This is a gift with a simple label of KIZAKURA. It had been lying in the back of the shelf. I didn't know that Yamada Omachi was priced at 1,250 yen. Gentle sweetness and gentle spiciness. It is best served at room temperature or warmed. Don't be fooled into thinking it's an old-fashioned sake. No wonder the elderly have so much confidence in this cheap sake from a major brewer. Rating 3.8 (out of 5.0) 20230114

Ryoseki Hatsushibori-Junmai Nama-no-Nama-Shu 16% 59% 720ml 1540yen This sake arrived at the beginning of the year from Akita. He asked me, "What kind of Akita sake would you like to drink? I answered "Ryoseki" without hesitation! I answered "Ryoseki" without hesitation. Ryoseki has been a representative brand in Akita for a long time, but nowadays "Hanayuup" brewed by the same brewery is more well-known. I knew I had to know more about Ryoseki, so I asked for it. A few days later, I received the bottle and immediately opened it. It was fresh, as if it was the first time it had been pressed. It has a little bit of the strength of the original sake, with a strong sweetness and umami. The sake is +3 (or 4.1, depending on the year), which means that the sake is dry, but the sweetness is not as strong as it should be. It is a little different from the Ryozeki of the past. It seems to have evolved with the times and with the trends. The sake is made from Akita rice called "Yume-obako. I don't think I've ever had it before. Personally, I would have preferred it to be a little less assertive. However, I am thankful to the owner for sending me Ryoseki, which is not easy to drink in Tokyo. It is better to express our impressions as they are. Rating 3.7 (out of 5.0) 20230109

Kidoizumi PURE GREEN 2021 R3BY Yamadanishiki Nama-nihonjunshu Junmai 60% 16 1650 yen per 720ml New Year's Day in 2023 was right around the time I had my first corona. Since I had never been vaccinated against corona, I decided to drink Kidoizumi thinking that sake was the vaccine. It is made from high-temperature Yamahai sake. It seems to be effective for a weak body. I heard that an old man once said that Yamahai is good at the beginning of a cold. Yamadanishiki produced in Chiba Prefecture may be rare. The acidity and umami spread, and it is thick and juicy. It is easy to drink as it has a slightly low alcohol content for a pure sake. As expected, I caught a cold for a round after this.

Eikoufuji Issen-Kazehada Dry Junmai-Shu 80% 15.5% 720ml 1485yen The first sake of 2023 is Eikoufuji. The first sake of 2023 is Eiko Fuji, with a cool label that could be called a devil's ruin label. The rice is Gohyakumangoku, and it is grown in Toyama. I love Gohyakumangoku because it is easy to drink and refreshing! The image of "Eiko Fuji" is not so strong. I have an image of Eiko Fuji as a sweet and strong wine, but this wine overturns that image with its light and dry taste. As the name suggests, it has a strong sharpness. Although it is low-polished, it has a clean taste without any cloying flavors. Although Eikoufuji is mostly distributed in Tokyo as a draft sake, this kind of fire-brewed sake is also quite good.

Yaetsuru YASAKATSURU Shiboritate Nama-zake 19% brewed alcohol 720ml 1210 yen The closing sake of the fiscal year 2022 is the Furusato tax return sake. It is already the end of the year 2023 and we are still working on the fiscal year 2022. It has the freshness of freshly squeezed sake with melon-like sweetness. The roughness and herbiness of the original 19 degrees stimulates the tongue. It could be a little less sweet. It seems to be a regular sake, but according to the information on the website, it seems to be 74% polished. The retro label of Yamahai is also interesting. Rating 3.5 (out of 5.0) 20221229

Sasaichi Junmai Ginjo Koshu Yumesansui 16% 60% 720ml 1750yen I bought this on the way home from golf. Sasaichi always makes a good sake. It was opened on Christmas Day, but there is nothing Christmasy about it. The first sip. Again, it's a nice, refreshing sake. Full of umami, but can also be served as a food sake. When warmed to lukewarm, the sweetness swells to a warming sensation. A bit dry. The brewery has a well-stocked souvenir shop. The canned sake here is also quite aggressive and tasty. 3.9 (out of 5.0) 20221225

Kidoizumi, Gin Gin, Normal Sake 16%, brewing alcohol, 1800ml, 2090 yen I went to the Kidoizumi brewery and asked, "Do you have any sake that sake-drinkers can drink easily?" They recommended this Ginkon. I was recommended this Ginkon, which has an old-fashioned label, just the way I like it. This is a very promising sake. The sweetness is typical of old-fashioned Kanto sake. The sweetness is typical of old-fashioned Kanto sake, but does not linger as it quickly changes to dryness. The acidity is moderate and lingers. There is nothing wrong with brewed alcohol. Soaks into a tired body after a hard day's work. Suitable for room temperature to hot sake. Certified as a delicious regular sake for one bottle! The price is also excellent. Ginkon" seems to have been featured in the Young Magazine serial "Itsuka Guroku Hancho". As expected of Hancho. Rating 4.2 (out of 5.0) 20221224

Kinryo Udon-suitable sake Junmai 15-16% 70% Sanuki Yomai 720ml, 1,375 yen Three breweries in Kagawa Prefecture brew sake under the concept of "sake that goes well with udon. This time, we purchased Nishino Kinryo, a representative brewery of Kagawa Prefecture. It tastes slightly mellow to dry. I think it also has a broth-like feel, like Kyushu's sashimi soy sauce. The sake rice, Sanuki Yomai, is often used in Kagawa breweries, but it is not a miss. I did not try it with udon, because I do not like to eat udon with sake. It was a good enough sake even without this concept. The price is also good. Rating 4.0 out of 5.0 20221222
