家飲みメイン。日本酒が最近旨し。そんな年齢になってしまった40代ゾロ目。酒は好きだが強くはなく、家なら1合を飲む程度で色々飲みたいのになかなか進みません。記憶力も悪くなってきたことだし備忘録代わりに始めてみました。

Shichida純米吟醸 愛山50 無濾過

Conquered Saga after Fukuoka The sake was completely different from Fukuoka's. It was a very mature sake. Junmai Ginjo by Shichida, which is said to be 50% sharpened Japanese sake rice diamonds⁈ It has a clear and three-dimensional taste. Complex sweetness with a little bitterness. It is better to savor it little by little than to drink a lot. It is better to drink it slowly with a small amount of sake. It is a very delicious sake.

Souvenirs from my father-in-law Summery appearance. That alone is enough to raise expectations of the great snowy valley. The taste is light and refreshing. It is easy to drink. It has a slight sweetness and a sake-like taste. If you are told to drink this, you can drink as much as you want. However, it does not have enough punch if you drink only sake. I like it better when it is cooled down. It's just like the label says.

First, open the package. The aroma is amazingly good. Expectations for the flavor of rice are high. First, a sip. Hmm? Maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe my taste buds are too discerning... It has sweetness, acidity, and umami. But something is missing... No, it is not missing. I wonder... In terms of hamburgers, is it McDonald's? It's delicious, but there's nothing that sticks out. It's not expensive, and it's easy to get at Kinokuniya supermarkets, but is that why? I don't think I'd go back for more. It's high quality, but.... I wonder if there is something that would break through if I drank the more expensive sake from brewer Kuheiji...

Long time no update! Finally, Hokkaido conquered! Kamikawa Daisetsu with high expectations. As it turns out, my expectations may have been too high, but good is good. It has a good balance of subtle sourness, bitterness, and umami. However, it is a surprisingly small honor student. I'm beginning to understand my propensity for liking things that are a little quirky. Good as a food sake! Hokkaido! Hokkaido's rich summer flavors, such as delicious vegetables, cheese, and butter. The strength of the northern core is as strong as the vegetables, cheese, butter, etc. Drunken old man's ramblings. Sansho is a small but mighty thing. So I'd like to try a different kind! This time I got it from my hometown. Well, it's the turn of the national conquest 👊👊.

There is no front label due to a few circumstances. It was a gift. Kubota is really delicious... It's so refreshing. It goes well with everything, and can be matched with anything. Although it is not enough on its own, it is excellent as a food sake. Dekisugi-kun. The sweetness comes first, and it goes down your throat smoothly. Junodai's lack of miscellaneous flavors. High level! However, as a natural lover of curvy characters, it may not be enough for me.

Melon This is already a ripe melon. Just too ripe, too sweet... The atmosphere of such a pulpy red melon The sweetness is persistent, a bit different from this kind of taste of popular sake breweries. I wonder what the difference is. It tastes like the latest trend, but I can't shake the impression that it's just a second-best. It was a little too strong. I am sorry. It was a rude comment.

It's like the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. What is popular is delicious. However, as an innocent person, I can't openly declare that I like it, can I? It has just the right amount of sweetness without being too much of a drag. It's not disliked by anyone. I don't approve. If it tastes this good at this price, it will sell well.

Delicious!!! Most summer sake has a pattern of being heavy and refreshing with ice, but this one is refreshing and light. This is what I think of summer! It is light. The sweetness is light, and it is so easy to drink that it is hard to believe that it is 15%. However, the flip side of the drinkability is that it has no peculiarities, so when asked what it tasted like, I can't remember.

Fukui Prefecture today. This is the closest to water I've ever had. Not thin, but water with a solid melon-like heavy sweetness in the air. This is exactly what a food sake is supposed to be. This time a small bottle to try. It is not junmai (pure rice), but there is no unpleasant alcohol smell, and it goes down easy. This is delicious. I can drink it forever.

Pink liquor. Sweet and light. The alcohol content is low and easy to drink. However, it lacks acidity, rice flavor, and depth. It tastes good, but it gives the impression of a chain restaurant flavor. It is recommended with dishes that have a strong sour taste. This time, I paired it with fried chicken and other strong-flavored mid-meal dishes. It seemed to go well with it. I was not impressed. However, it was so light that I finished 2/3 of the bottle. Cost performance is not so good. I will not repeat it.

It's time for a change of clothes, so let's have a summer sake. So, this sake has a refreshing label. As recommended, I drank it on the rocks. It is indeed a good sake on the rocks with a little ice melted on it. Originally, this sake is a little heavy. The melting of the ice makes it a well-balanced cold sake. But it is still a little heavy. It's like an orthodox fastball pitcher.

What is this lightness? Sourness and sweetness. It is so clear that you can see the location of the taste buds on the tongue that sense them. On the other hand, there are few other elements of sake. If I say it is close to wine, it is close, but I guess it is the sweetness of rice. From my thirst on a midsummer's day, 500ml of sake was just a fraction of a second. But 9% is so-so. By the way, it was produced in Nagano. I used to live in Nagano, and I used to drink Oshinshu and other such sake, but I had no idea that this different kind of sake would become the first Nagano sake at Sake-no-wa... I was a drunkard with a lot of memories.

Summer! So I bought several bottles of summer sake. The first one is Kido's Summer Gale. It is a little heavy. It is a little heavy, but not too sweet, which is summery. I wondered if it would become a nice summer sake if I drank it with ice. I wonder if it will be a good summer drink. It is heavy but has a light feeling. I'll try it that way tomorrow. But squid goes too well with sake...

First, the opening ceremony. It's overflowing 😢. What to do, this first time... A thick muddy sake that was well mixed by the overflow. Delicious! Delicious! This is good. A wonderful balance of just the right amount of sweetness and just the right amount of richness. It goes well with a slightly rich meal. Easy to drink. It goes on and on. Is there alcohol in it? It was great. It jumped to the top of the group. Even though there was some overflow, we drank the 4th bottle in one sitting. That's a rare drink for our couple. By the way, how do I open this bottle? Can someone tell me the best way?
