くるま麩
At Ohtsuki Sake Shop, Matsumoto City I knew the Akanesasu brand, but this was the first time I heard of a sparkling one, so I was curious and bought it! I bought it because I was curious about it. It is sparkling and very refreshing to drink! It has a sweet and sour taste like grapes and strawberries. Not too sweet, but still sharp and delicious ✨. It is like a wine, but with a hint of sweetness from the rice at the end, which is good because it has a sake-like character.

Good evening, kuruma-fu-san. I had a bottle of this a while ago and it's very tasty 🎵. It's easy to drink and I'm reminiscing about how great it was as a sparkling sake 🤤.

Hi, ma-ki! I think it was a very light and tasty drink, like an "aperitif". I think it's perfect for anniversaries and such!

2025 New Year Suwa Gokura Tour (5) Masumi Junmai Daiginjo Yamahana I have drunk it before. The acidity and umami are very elegant. Special order Kinju. A blended sake. It has an initial acidity, followed by a deep umami and bitterness that makes it a very good mid-meal sake. Junmai Ginjo Hakuju I have had this sake before. It is a low-alcohol sake with a soft sweetness that gives a gentle impression. Junmai Ginjyo Nama Harajuku Arabashiri Smooth and fruity, it is very light despite its high alcohol content, and the honey-like sweetness is very delicious! It was the highlight of my visit! We were satisfied to be able to sample a variety of fresh and flavorful new sakes during our winter visit. ✨️

2025 New Year Suwa Gokura Tour (4) Yokobue Select (1) to (5) from the list of tastings Ginjo-nama sake Hatsutsukuri Great flavor, maybe close to shochu. Low alcohol ginjo-shu. It is said to be a delicious low-alcohol sake for summer, but it was not available last summer, so this is the first time I'm drinking it here. It is light, very soft, sweet and easy to drink. Indeed, I would like to drink it casually in summer! Bottle-fermented nigori sake This nigori sake has a strong honey-like sweetness. The bubbles and acidity make it easy to drink. Junmai Ginjo Yokobue Yamae Nishiki The taste is gentle and soft with umami. The aroma is very nice through the nose and you can enjoy the lingering taste. Sweet Junmai Sake Yokobue It has a thick, syrupy mouthfeel, but it is not as sweet as expected. The acidity makes it easy to drink and the mellow flavor is strong and lingers in the aftertaste. I like it a lot.

Purchased at Aizawa Sake Shop, Matsumoto Second bottle purchased at Matsumoto Odekake Ina no Senjo, a brand I was curious about. Nigori (nigori) sake characterized by the lively white rabbit! The aroma is quite fruity! When you put it in your mouth, it has a strong flavor with sweetness and bitterness! It has a silky taste that only nigori sake can have, and in my opinion, it goes well with cheese.

Purchased at Matsumoto Nakajima Sake Shop Recovering from a cold, I went out to Matsumoto. I went to Matsumoto to see the magnificent Matsumoto Castle and bought some sake. The first bottle was a new sake from my favorite sake brewer, Masamune ✨️ It has the coolness of new sake and the tingling sensation that comes when you put it on your tongue. The sweet and sour apple-like taste is very refreshing! The soft sweetness of glutinous rice with a beautiful aftertaste that is not too sticky and sticky, and a great drinking experience!

It has a fresh impression, with just the right amount of umami and acidity. It has a fruity and refreshing taste on the palate and a lingering aftertaste at the end, and you can enjoy it without getting tired of drinking it. ✨️

くるま麩
Purchased at Takagiya Sake Shop in Kotohira on 12/27 I had it with my family as an accompaniment to motsu nabe (hot pot) 🍲. The light, watery taste of the rice spreading slowly on the palate was very tasty! It has a strong flavor, but also has acidity and a sharpness that makes it a great sake to drink during dinner. The sweet fat from the motsu nabe (hot pot of pork and vegetables) was a perfect match for the sake. ✨️ I prefer it warmed up as it has more sweetness.

Seishun 18 Ticket Travel Day 3, Shinano-Kisofukushima Due to a sudden downpour this summer, we were able to visit Nakanori, but not here...finally we were able to come ✨. We tasted 3 out of the 6 types! Shiboritate Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo] Second from the left. Fresh and clean on the palate. The sweet and sour taste makes it easy to drink. The aftertaste is rich and lingers well! Junmai-shu 50% Koji] Second from the right As the introduction says, it is indeed a white wine! I thought it would be sweet, but it was a dry sake. The aftertaste has the umami and bitterness of rice, and this is where I knew it was sake. I felt it was a Japanese sake. Special Junmai Nagano R Yeast Brewing] far right The aroma and taste are indeed sweet and sour with a hint of apple. But surprisingly, it is not too sweet and easy to drink. The mouthfeel is thick and mild. The bottom two sakes are made from Shiga Prefecture's Ginbukietsu sake rice, and they have a bitter rice flavor that lingers in the aftertaste. On the third day, we took a slow train to Kagawa, Wakayama, and Nagano, which was quite exhausting 💦. The snowstorm started, and I was disheartened... I'll go home and take care of myself.

Seishun 18 Ticket Trip Day 2, Kii I paid a visit to Koukouji Temple and Negoroji Temple, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, and also went to drink Kurumizaka, which I had wanted to drink for a long time! We tasted three kinds of sake at Negoroku. Nihonjo Hatsu Shibori Smooth taste with a gentle sweetness. Fresh and slightly fruity! The umami aftertaste is beautifully spread and disappears quickly, so it is good as a food sake. Teppoutai Junmai Ginjyo Genshu Firmly mellow. The acidity and bitterness are characteristic, and the taste is deep and satisfying. Kurumazaka Junmai The aroma has a honey-like sweetness like maple syrup. The mellowness and lactobacillus-like richness are exquisite and I liked it very much! The complex flavor is well balanced by the acidity. ✨️

Seishun 18 Ticket Trip Day 1, Sanuki (2) Kompira-san mairi (visit to Kompira-san) There was a store where we could drink new sake, so we ordered some! The waitress said the sake was strong and good this year! It has the coolness of new sake, but perhaps because it was soaked in alcohol, it seemed to be more beautiful and calm than vibrant. The aroma is quite gorgeous. The taste is rich and sweet, with a nice bitterness. The end is tangy and has a nice sharpness to it! The aroma of rice flavor through the nose was also good. ✨️

Seishun 18 Ticket Trip Day 1, Sanuki (1) Visiting Kompira-san and tour of udon noodles We tasted three kinds of sake at Kinryo's brewery on the approach to the temple! From the right Koan Junmai Ginjo Moderately fruity It has a deep and rich flavor, but it is not too sticky. It is not too sticky, but has a sharp taste and is easy to drink. Kusunokami Special Junmai Genshu The aroma and taste are both sweet and sour. The sweetness is moderate and very easy to drink. ✨️ Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki Quintessentially gorgeous! The taste is moist and full of elegance. It is full of elegance. As expected of Kompira-san, the stairs are very steep, so the udon and sake are even better after visiting the shrine! We ate two bowls of authentic Sanuki udon during our short stay. It is soft, firm, and tasty even in a simple bukkake dish☺.

The taste is very strong and full of umami and bitterness. It is very satisfying to drink with strong flavored food.

Purchased at Fukumori Sake Shop in Nara on 11/22 The first Nagasaki sake is Iki Yokoyama! Fresh muscat aroma! Very smooth and fine on the palate and very pleasant to drink! Very tasty with a bouncy sweetness. ✨️ The first impression is easy to drink, but the second half is full-flavored, slightly bitter and spicy, and very satisfying 😆. Iki Island is one of the places I would like to visit someday as I love ancient Japanese history, and I would love to go there for this sake too ✨.

Moved from Rakuchu to Fushimi The purpose is to eat sakekasu ramen at Fushimizu Sake Brewery Alley and Kado-Sen. I almost always stop by when I visit Kyoto. Sakekasu and crispy chicken broth go really well together! As we were sipping, an announcement was made that limited-edition Kizakura sake was available, so we ordered some after our meal! It seems that the sake was served at the sake brewery open house that was cancelled due to bad weather, and was only available on this Saturday and Sunday! A sales person from Kizakura came and poured us some 😊. This was my first time drinking Junmai Daiginjo Shiboritate! The aroma was slightly peachy. It has a light, moist mouthfeel typical of Fushimi sake, while still having the petitiveness of new sake! Not too floral, but a deep sweetness that is very tasty. ✨️ It also has the robustness of the original sake, and after drinking it, I slowly got drunk and felt very satisfied!

Standing drinking at Asano Sake KYOTO (5) Sake for the coming year of the Snake The name "Mimuro Sake" is also associated with the fact that the god of the Ojinja Shrine, where the Mimuro Sake brewery is located, is a white snake 🐍. The aroma is lactic like cheese or yogurt, which is very enjoyable among the Bodaihashi sake I have had. It has a surprisingly light sweet and sour taste and is very tasty! I thought it might have some peculiarities, but the low alcohol content made it easy to drink.

Standing drinking at Asano Sake KYOTO (4) One of SENKYO's Zero style, which I was very interested in in my recent post! It has a nice fruity aroma that goes straight to the nose instead of straight to the palate! Sweet and sour and very tasty☺. While it is very easy to drink, it is a sign that I have come to understand Sentori that I did not feel that much of the sourness that is typical of Sentori. ......! I would love to try the others! It is said to be "Edo-style", but it is neither very dry nor sweet like mirin (sweet sake), but more like modern sake!
