This is a sake that I had been curious about for a long time, but it was a bit expensive and I hadn't had a chance to drink it. The aroma is mellow and muscat-like, typical of Hououmida. Surprised when I put it in my mouth! It starts with a molasses-like sweetness and a soft but sharp-edged impression with nothing unnecessary removed. While the sweetness spreads to the aftertaste, the astringency is gradually felt, giving a refreshing impression without lingering. Yes, it has been a while since I drank an overpriced sake that I was satisfied with. It is wonderful. 9

First time chivalry. Before I bought it, I only knew it was a newspaper liquor. The aroma is apple-like. The moment you put it in your mouth, you get a gulp of umami! This is the top level of umami among all the sake I have ever had. At the same time as the umami, you feel sweet and sour, and the bitterness seeps into the back of your throat. This is delicious. I can't really explain it, but even though it's a voluminous sake, it doesn't feel heavy and is easy to drink. It is not too sweet among the umami bombs, but it has a good balance of sourness. I would like to try other Gikyo. 8.9

A snowman that I put to bed. This is the second one this season. It seems to have a slight yellow tinge. The opening schwash and pouring schwash seems to be a little weaker, but the schwash is stronger in the mouth. The sweetness settles down and the sizzling flavor spreads, and I think it has a milky but slightly more graininess. It's delicious. I'm looking forward to next season. 8.5

I bought this at the airport during a trip to Matsuyama. I bought it because I had an extra National Travel Discount coupon. First, I sipped it cold. The acidity was strong and dry, and I thought it would be delicious warmed. First, I boiled it in hot water for a little bit to human skin temperature, and yes, the acidity was stronger, and the flavor blossomed. If you raise the temperature a little more, the acidity and umami will be well balanced. Yes, it is better to warm it up. 7

I was able to buy Miyazumi nigori, which is reputed to be delicious, for the first time. When I opened the bottle, the lid blew off just by unscrewing the stopper. It was so shwashy that it almost overflowed, so I hurriedly tightened the lid and waited for it to settle down. When I poured it, I could see more of the great schwash. Without mixing the inside of the bottle, I drank the first sip with a light mixture of the first sips. The cloudy color is slightly white, and the aroma is like that of rum. When you put it in your mouth, it has a strong, fresh, juicy, sweet, but not sticky and refreshing taste. The aftertaste is long and lingers in the back of the throat. It's an adult's Ramune. Delicious. 9

This is the second bottle this season. It has a strong gassy feeling right after opening the bottle. It seems sweeter than the last batch. It tastes good. The sweetness gives it a strong calpis taste, which makes it easy to drink. Cheap and good sake, it's good! 8

I bought it because I thought it looked delicious in terms of image, although it was my first time to buy a clear Kirizukuba, Hatsu Shibori. It was not too thick even when mixed with Nigori-nagori, and was light nigori as shown on the label. It is very fresh and smooth, but has a strong sweetness. The rim of the bottle is sticky. The creaminess that is typical of nigori sake is not so great, but I think that is what makes it so mild. The aftertaste is astringent and refreshing, so it goes down smoothly. 7.9

The last bottle of 2022 is "Do", which I have been wanting to drink for a long time. I managed to purchase it this year. It is sloppy like doburoku, but smooth and creamy. The aroma of green apple, the smooth sweetness, the chili-chili-gassiness, and the creamy but refreshing aftertaste are all good impressions. I don't like doburoku, but I like this one, but I think I will be full soon. 7.8

I bought my first sake during the ongoing Nigolympics. When the bottle was opened, it was lightly poussed, and I started with the supernatant. It had a fresh, light grapefruit-like sweetness and acidity, as is typical of nama-shu. When I stirred it, it was even more gassy. It is of course creamy, but the sweetness is not so much increased compared to before mixing, and the impression is rather dry. However, the overall volume is strong, and while it is a dark nigori sake, it is refreshing and well-balanced. I drank it with fried chicken with lemon, and it went well with it because it was not too heavy. 7.5

I found an unfamiliar nigori sake and bought it. From the label, I thought it was going to be a sparkling sake, but it didn't sparkle at all. This alone was enough to put me off. I shook the bottle to mix the contents and poured it vigorously, but it didn't shrivel up at all. Label fraud...I bought it expecting it to be shwashy... The taste is not shwashy at all, but silky rice sweetness and 19% alcohol, which is strong in body, but not too strong and easy to drink. Delicious, but a little disappointing because it doesn't have the schwash that I expected. 6.8

It was a new sake nigori, a big hit. It had been sitting in the refrigerator, but I couldn't resist and opened the bottle. It was almost overflowing with sizzle when we opened the bottle, but we were able to get it to stop after three times of opening and closing. It was so sweet and sweet-umami. It is sweet, sweet, sweet and delicious. It has a strong calpis taste. There is an astringent aftertaste, but there are no corners at all. The taste, aroma, and mouthfeel are all perfect for me. I will not give up my No. 1 sake this year. 10

I bought it for a little drinking after a long time. It has a mild umami taste and a dry aftertaste with a hint of rice sweetness. It is clear and refreshing at best, and thin at worst. But I don't feel bad about it, the thinness is pleasant. A little happiness to be able to buy it at a convenience store. 6.5

The first Koei Kiku, I rushed to buy it when I heard about its arrival. I was right to open the bottle while holding the lid with my hand, and the cork blew off with a pop. It tasted sour and astringent like grapefruit juice. The alcohol content is 15%, but it feels lighter than that. There is a lactic acidity in the aftertaste, but it is light and smooth with a pleasant astringent taste. It is a fruity and easy-to-drink sake. 8.2

From opening the bottle, it is shwashy, but not to the point of overflowing. When poured, it seems to overflow. When you put it in your mouth, you get a strong fizzy feeling, a little sweetness, astringency, lactic acidity, and a dry finish. As a nigori sake, it has some volume, but the overall impression is light. It is not too sweet, and the acidity is moderate, giving it a high overall strength. For some reason, it was paired with sashimi of inada, but as expected, it didn't go well with it! I had to stop the knob and chibi chibi. 8.6

I saw it for the first time at a liquor store and bought it. It was a dark, nigori (nigori-stained) type, and it was aluminium-sweetened. I thought it would spurt out because it was a draft sake, but it didn't shrivel up at all. I thought it would gush out since it was a draft sake, but it didn't shrivel up at all. Even when I turned the bottle upside down, the unrefined sake did not fall down at all! If you turn the bottle up and down for a while, it starts to mix and come to a shuwashu inside the bottle. You can tell that the sake has become thick just by pouring it in. The texture is also smooth. It is sweet and tasty, but sharp and crisp like an arosoe, and afterwards you can feel a sharp alcohol taste from the back of the throat. This is delicious. It has 120% of the goodness of Aruzoe. Creamy and full of umami, it is sweet but the overall impression is sharp and refreshing. I found a hidden masterpiece of sake. 9

I bought it last year and enjoyed it so I repeated. When you drink the top clear part, it has a refreshing green apple taste. When mixed with other ingredients, the smooth sweetness expands and the green apple flavor increases. It is a gorgeous nigorizake that is not heavy, so you can drink it without hesitation. It is not like nigori sake, but it is very tasty. 8.6

Doburoku, but as a reminder. I bought doburoku for the first time. It was very thick. When I put it in my mouth, I felt the texture like bubbles clinging to my tongue, then I felt the sweetness and the sizzle in it, and at the same time, the sourness gradually became stronger, and the rice glutinous substance remained in my mouth. The aftertaste is a hint of green apple. Yeah, I don't really like doburoku! I thought it would be good just because I like nigori sake, but I was wrong. It seems to get drier as time goes by after opening the bottle, so let's hope for that.

This is the first nigori sake as Kangiku that has been talked about. I got the last one on the shelf. As the label says, it has a Calpis feeling, and as soon as the bottle is opened, it has a great Calpis soda feeling. Despite the low alcohol content of 13%, it has a solid body that is not fooled by the sweetness, but the mouthfeel is light and the refreshing sweetness lingers in the second half of the bottle. There is a part of me that has avoided regular Kangiku because it is too sweet, but this cloudy one is very well-balanced and delicious. The sweetness, combined with the lactic acidity, is not clingy, so you can drink it as much as you want. However, it is not so good that I can keep drinking it, so I think the current nigori sake champion is Snowball. 9

Nigori Sake Season Opens with a Champion(?) Here is the king(?) of nigori sake. When the bottle is opened, it does not overflow, but it is very vigorous. When you put it in your mouth, it is creamy with a deliciously sour taste. The flavor continues with a hint of calpis, which is typical of nigori sake. The balance of the sake is good, as I thought. The sweetness is stronger than the year before last and the umami is stronger than last year. I feel like this is my favorite sake. If I were asked which sake I like best, I would have a hard time deciding, but if I were asked which sake I would drink without hesitation, I would say this one. 9.2
