The weather has cooled down completely and the time is not right for Kabutomushi...^^;. It is light like a summer sake. Delicious again this year 😃 I was surprised that the alcohol is 14 degrees. I thought it would be lower. The Akinatai fish seems to be undercooked, but it is cooked properly! But still, summer sake and akitogi...a little different atmosphere? And the golden kabuto is still around too 🤣.

Early autumn trip to Yamagata. Auberge of wild vegetable dishes? At Dewaya, we were served Sakata's Tatenogawa. Tatenogawa is a sake brewery specializing in junmai daiginjo, and although I had an image of it being fruity, it is also dry. It is not too dry because of the aroma and umami flavor, just the right amount of saltiness. Perfect for a mid-meal drink 🎵. The photo is of a sweet potato stew and ayu fish! 🤣 The new rice cooked in a rice cooker served at breakfast was shiny, glossy, and delicious. The aroma was wonderful. Freshly cooked silver rice is the best ✨✨.

It was the second time in my life to visit Yamagata. Yamagata is nice with both ocean and mountains! I want to go back 🎵

SENKYO O O UNITED ARROWS collaboration sake 🍶. This year's Iwagata is a nigori (cloudy) sparkling 🍾. The back label states "carbon dioxide" in the ingredients section. Does this mean that the sake was not fermented in the bottle but injected with carbon dioxide gas? Well, as long as it's good, I don't care about the production method. The gas pressure is lower than expected. If it claims to be a bubbly sake, it might be better if it is more shwashy. It is light like Sentori, but it is quite cloudy and has a good flavor. Sentori is still delicious. ♥️ I still have a Kabutushi and a Golden Kabutushi in the fridge. I have to drink them soon or summer will be over! 🤣

Sushi Matsuura🍣 There were six in total, but I only post the ones I've never met before. The sixth and last one is Kuririn from Akita. This sake is made with Misato Nishiki from the Rokugo Higashine area of Misato Town. The label on the back of the bottle says to compare the two. I bet you wouldn't be able to tell the difference even if you drank it 🤣.

Sushi Matsuura🍣 There were six in total, but I only post the ones I've never met before. The fifth one is Senkou Senkohana (sparkler). I'm a Sentori lover, but this is the first one I've ever had. But I bought this one... I would have preferred something else since it was lying in the fridge at home... ^^; However, since I ordered the sake as an optional extra, I took it without any hesitation. It tastes like Sentori and I'm looking forward to opening it at home✨✨.

Sushi Matsuura🍣 There were six in total, but I only post the ones I've never met before. The fourth one, following Amber, is Gokeijo. I had never heard of this brand before. It was also the first time for me to taste Hitanishiki sake rice. The aroma is gorgeous, and the rice is delicious and sweet. In contrast to the lightness of Amber. The tuna was Canadian red meat and Shiogama toro. The toro was frozen in season. It is amazing to see the progress of technology. I didn't realize that you can enjoy delicious tuna even in summer.

Sushi Matsuura🍣 There were six in total, but I only post the ones I've never met before. The third one, following Gagakuyo, was Akabu no Amber. I didn't know there was such a thing... ^^;. This year, the autumn swordfish is good for the first time in a long time. It is indeed meaty, fatty, and delicious😍 The new squid season is here 🎵.

Sushi Matsuura🍣 There were six in total, but I only post the ones I've never met before. The first one was Sado Yamada-Nishiki Ninonozo, followed by Sado's Garakudai Zuika. It is a good food sake that enhances the food without interfering with the food. We had the new salmon roe ✨ The skin was thin and it bounced in your mouth without chewing 😍 I love salmon roe. I couldn't help but have another serving 😆.

I hadn't drank the Summer Higuma yet, even though the Autumn Higuma was about to be released! So I had the one that had been sitting in the fridge. It is a light summer sake with a restrained sweetness. An ideal food sake. It is perfect for a hot day when it is well chilled. It's quite a tasty summer hikuma. I've ordered the Autumn Higuma and am looking forward to it ✨.

Hozumoroku Nozomu Brewery. The gassiness seems mild for San-do. Still, it has a firm petitiveness, though. Roku-no-brewed with rice grown in the Kikuchi River basin, sake brewed in a wooden vat, with no pesticides, no fertilizers, and no added yeast. On the label is the character "Riku," which stands for Roku-no-brewing. What kind of regulation will be added if there will be a Nananouzou 🤔.

On a recent trip to Niigata, I visited the famous Niigata restaurant "Brothers Sushi. The restaurant is particular about Niigata sake, and when I asked for sake, I was served only Niigata sake. The fourth and last one is Abe in Kashiwazaki City. Summer sake is available from No. 1 to No. 3, but what was this one? It's written on the back of the tag hanging on the neck...^^;. You bought the No. 2 brewing tank, didn't you? Well, I don't think I would be able to tell the difference in taste no matter what number it was! 🤣 Low alcohol and high acidity, like a summer sake, yet with a good umami. Quite delicious. It is indeed a national abe.

The third was Musho. The third was Mousou, a sake brewery in Murakami City. I had never heard of this brewery. I also heard about a sake rice called "Koshitanrei" for the first time. It seems to be a sake rice developed in Niigata. If you are going to drink in Niigata, it would be nice to have something like this 🎵.

The second was Garakudai, a collaboration sake with UNITED ARROWS🍶 UA collaborates with various breweries. And recently they have released Akabu. It is a low-alcohol sake with acidity, which is typical of UA's style. It's a UA collaboration that never fails to deliver. This one is also delicious✨.

On a recent trip to Niigata, I visited the famous Niigata restaurant "Brothers Sushi. As the restaurant is dedicated to Niigata cuisine, I ordered only Niigata sake, which was also on the menu. The first was Kirinzan. The first was Kirinzan, a sake made from Takananishiki rice. When I heard the name Kirinzan, I had an image of it being very classical, but I was surprised at how modern it was. However, there was also a hint of old-fashioned sake in the depths of the bottle. Kirinzan, a brand I would not have chosen for myself, is not bad. It's not good not to drink it.

The second bottle for drinking at my parents' house. Nagurayama from Fukushima. I don't know this brand. Of course, it was my first time, but it was quite good. I guess there are still many unknown good sake brands out there.

The pinnacle of NATURE," it says on the back label. It came out big, didn't it? LOL! It is a kijoshu, but since it is a Senkyoku, I thought it would be light and refreshing, but it was sweeter than I expected. However, it also has a good acidity, so it could just barely be served during a meal. To put it roughly, it's a bit more like a sweeter version of Yonotori. Delicious 😃.

From last week's Sushi Matsuura, I had something I'd never had before: the second was Higashi Kaimori. The second one is Higashi Kaimori, a sake from Futtsu. Sake from Chiba is becoming more and more popular these days. Kangiku is also popular. This sake also has a classical name and character, but it looks modern. It seems to be popular.
