It's been a long time since I've had Hakurakusei 🤩 which got me hooked on sake 🍶 and this will be my first cold wholesale, so I have high expectations.
The rice used is Kura-no-Hana.
Polishing ratio is 55%.
Alcohol level is 15
Sake degree is +4
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is gently fruity and sweet like bananas and melons. This is followed by citrusy aromas like fresh lime and green apple.
When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear, pale golden color with no strong cloudiness or coloration. The thickening is not very strong, and it has a slippery, fluid feel. It is light and smooth.
The mouthfeel is moist and soft, with no alcohol horniness. It has a fresh fruitiness like melon and pear.
A discreet sweetness and a gradual umami flavor spreads in the mouth. The refreshing citrus acidity tightens the aftertaste, leaving no sweetness on the tongue. It has a short aftertaste, so it can be used as a mid-meal sake that does not interfere with meals 😄.
Hakurakusei is a definite choice 😋.

Good evening, Daddy Takel 😃.
This is Hakurakusei cold wholesale! We had our first Hakurakusei last year 😋.
Many of the rice we received at that time said they were hooked from Hakurakusei!
A good food wine is a sin 😌.

OCEAN99 series by KANGiku Meikozo
This is the first time for me to introduce you to Tomiomi.
The label color is orange, reminiscent of the setting sun. The orange color of the label is reminiscent of the sunset, and is said to be inspired by the image of an airplane passing over Kujukuri at sunset and landing "arrival".
The rice used for the brewing is 100% domestic rice suitable for sake brewing.
Rice polishing ratio is 55%.
Alcohol content is 15 degrees.
Sake degree -5
Fire-aged, single-strain, unfiltered unpasteurized sake
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is sweet and floral, with fresh and juicy orange fruit aroma mixed with tropical sweet fruit aroma like pineapple, and a fluffy sweet and sour aroma.
When poured into a sake cup, it is clear with no cloudiness and a slight pale golden color nuance. It has a thick texture, probably due to its sugar content and umami flavor.
The first sip reminds one of sweet and sour fruits such as orange, pineapple, and mango.
The sweetness and umami swell in the mouth, and the fruity acidity tightens the whole. The sweetness does not linger, and the acidity and light bitterness, like orange peel, quickly dissipate.
This junmai ginjo-shu has a fruity, juicy, fresh sweet and sour taste, and a sharpness that is completed by a hint of bitterness and acidity.
It has a dangerous mouthfeel that makes it easy to drink in large gulps.

The hot days are still continuing, but the season of autumn sake has arrived.
The first autumn sake we welcomed this season was AKABU's Amber. We were able to purchase it again after last year.
The raw material rice is Iwate rice
Polishing ratio is 50%.
Alcohol level is 13%.
Yeast used: Iwate yeast
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is soft, gentle, sweet, and calm, with a gorgeous fruity flavor like fruit or yogurt.
When poured into a sake cup, it is almost colorless, with a very pale, transparent color and a light, smooth texture.
When sipped, the low alcohol content makes it soft on the palate, and a refreshing acidity and juicy, apple- and muscat-like fruitiness spreads in the mouth.
As for the taste, the rice-derived flavor and light sweetness are well-balanced and fluffy, with a mild alcohol taste, while the sweetness like muscat or white peach disappears moistly, while the refreshing acidity tightens up the taste. Bitterness and astringency are barely perceptible.
The freshness as a new sake is rounded, and the balance of mild acidity and rice flavor is harmonious. The soft aroma and moist, subdued flavor make it a hiyaoroshi sake.
Personally, I find it tastes better at room temperature.

First check-in in Hiroshima Prefecture... ♪
Jackets 😅
I brought you a big issue tank pressed bear sake
100% Hachitan-Nishiki rice produced in Hiroshima Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio is 65
Alcohol level is 14 degrees.
Sake degree is +10
Yeast used: Association No. 6
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is subdued and calm, with a graininess and rice flavor, and a soft lactic acid smell.
When poured into the sake cup, it has a slightly pale yellow color and smooth texture. It is light, but still retains a little of its umami thickness.
The mouthfeel is soft and light, with a grain-like sweetness and a hint of minerality, and a core of umami.
The aftertaste is only slightly bitter and astringent. The sharpness and acidity are sharply integrated, and there is no lingering sweetness.
The taste is not so much light as it is umami, and the mouthfeel is not rich.

Yamanashi Prefecture, first time checking in 🎉.
We chose "Tadashi" Yamahai Junmai Ginjo, which we were finally able to bring along.
The rice used was 100% Bizen Omachi.
Rice polishing ratio: 55
Alcohol level: 15 degrees Celsius
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and fruity, like melon or green apple, with a lactic acid smell like yogurt, with a hint of the plump sweet aroma of Omachi and a cool, refreshing smell like green bamboo.
When poured into the sake cup, it has a pale yellowish-yamabuki color and a dense, smooth, creamy texture.
The first sip is soft and fresh on the palate, with a sweetness reminiscent of melon or pear spreading softly.
On the tongue, the umami of rice gradually swells, and a pleasant acidity tightens the sweetness and gives a sense of lactic acidity.
The aftertaste is a sharp change from the fruitiness, with bitterness and astringency, and the lingering aftertaste is crisp and sweet without leaving a lingering aftertaste.
The balance between umami and acidity is exquisite and keeps it from becoming heavy.
Personally, I prefer it when it is near room temperature after some time, as the acidity and graininess make the gorgeous, layered, wave-like flavor more apparent.

It had been laying in the refrigerator for a little over a year,
SENKORY and SAKELABO TOKYO's limited PB No.3 Ganbarou Ishikawa label
The rice used is 100% Yamadanishiki from Domaine Sakura
Polishing ratio is 50% for Koji rice, 60% for Kake rice
Alcohol level is 14 degrees.
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fresh and fruity like pears and white peaches, with a hint of soft lactic acidity like yogurt and vanilla.
When poured into the sake cup, the base is almost transparent, with a slight cloudiness that is typical of unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. When the ori is stirred, it has a pale milky white color. It is relatively smooth.
When you take a sip, you can still feel the slight bubbling and chirichiri-ness characteristic of nao kumi-shu. A fruity sweetness like pear or white peach precedes it. It is soft and juicy, and the acidity is not too strong, making it easy to sense its roundness.
Yogurt and milky nuances spread from behind the sweetness in the mouth. The roundness derived from the oak wraps around the entire wine, and there is almost no bitterness or astringency. The sense of fruitiness changes to green apple and muscatel, and a lightness is added.
In the finish, the sweetness is quickly lifted, and the light acidity and mild bitterness round out the flavor. The lingering finish is short and clear, making you want to drink more.
The 4th is more of a food sake type, while the 3rd is juicy and easy to drink.

It was laid up for 6 months since it was manufactured in 2025.02💦.
The rest of the two bottles purchased.
The rice used was 100% Kame-no-o from Domaine Sakura
100% Kame-no-o produced in Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture.
Polishing ratio: 90%, almost unpolished rice
Alcohol level: 13%.
Specifications: Nama-hashiwazukuri/wooden vat brewing/Kura yeast/nama-zake.
Sake degree is -20
Active nigori by secondary fermentation in the bottle
The bottle is a screw cap with a vent hole. I turned the cap with trepidation, but there was no fizziness at all 😳.
This is...I've done it...it seems to be degassed.
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is of ripe fruits like pears and white peaches, with a soft yogurt-like acidity derived from lactic acidity and a faintly sweet aroma like glutinous rice. The aromatic profile is soft and round.
When poured into the sake cup, it is milky white and highly concentrated nigori with rice grains and ori. It is lightly thickened.
The mouthfeel is smooth and thick, with a fruity sweetness like pear or white peach, but it does not feel heavy. After the lactic acidity from the yeast yeast yeast, a citric acidity from the fermentation process is felt. The mildness and graininess of glutinous rice are combined to create an umami flavor.
The bitterness, probably derived from fermentation, tightens up the flavor.

This is a limited edition product made through collaboration between Sentori and Kobayashi Shuzo with ancient varieties.
This is a bottle brewed by Sengoku.
The raw material rice is 80% Tochigi Aikoku No. 3 and 20% Yamadanishiki.
Polishing ratio is undisclosed.
The alcohol content is 13%.
The specifications are: hi-ire, orikarami.
When the bottle is opened, it has a fruity aroma with hints of lactic acid, pear, and apple.
When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear and slightly cloudy apricot color with a moderate nigori (cloudiness). Immediately after opening the bottle, there is a slight feeling of gas.
The first sip reveals a soft mouthfeel and light rice flavor in the mouth. It has a light sweetness like strawberries and pears, with a slight bitterness and astringency, and a clear finish that is light and refreshing.
It is a completely different sake from Hououmida's Aikoku. The brewing philosophies are different,
Sengoku emphasizes acidity and terroir.
Hououmida is the ultimate in ginjo aroma and fruitiness
The breadth of expressiveness of sake cannot be underestimated🤗.

I was told that this is a limited edition product made by Kobayashi Shuzo and Senkou in collaboration with an ancient variety, so I immediately jumped at the chance to try it.
This is Houou Mita brewed by Kobayashi Shuzo.
Aikoku...a rare sake rice cultivated in Tochigi Prefecture during the Taisho era (1912-1926). It is one of the ancient varieties that are said to be the "roots of sake rice.
This is a limited edition brewed using Tochigi Aikoku No. 3, which was restored in cooperation with the Agricultural Promotion Office and an agricultural high school, and brewed with a "nama-hashiroshi" brewing method.
The raw material rice is Tochigi Aikoku No. 3.
The rice polishing ratio is undisclosed, but many lots are brewed as Junmai Daiginjo, and the rice polishing ratio is around 50%.
The alcohol content is 15%.
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is fruity and citrus-like, with a gorgeous smell of pears, white peaches, and muscat.
When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear, pale yellow-green color and a smooth, silky texture.
The first sip reveals a smooth mouthfeel, followed by a mellow umami flavor that spreads throughout the palate. After the clear acidity and slight bitterness, the astringent taste of grains rounds out the flavor. The lingering finish is crisp and clean.
It is of course delicious chilled, but the more it is served at room temperature, the deeper the flavor becomes.
Hououmida, which we have not had for a long time, is still delicious.
I am looking forward to comparing it with Aikoku Sentori.

Yes, it's Genzei! This is Mr. Genzai 🤗.
I'll make love to you
The aroma is fresh and fruity 😌.
The first sip has a soft sweetness and umami along with a slight carbonation 😊plus a beautiful acidity and a great balance 🙄.
Something about the sourness lingers on the upper jaw 🙄 Another sip and that sourness seems to spread throughout 😋 I see what you mean! This is the secret of the vertical flavor ‼️ that Kotaro mentioned 🧐 and I was strangely convinced Jay 😄.
In summary, it's a bottle of Aizu brewed with a sparkling, chirichiriri-kirakira ✨ and vertical juiciness! It was a very nice one that made me roar 😋.
By the way, we stayed with my father in Chiba for 3 nights from last Sunday to Wednesday! Our plan was to visit my sister and father ☺️

Hi Nao888😃
I think cicadas are even more delicious after a long day of refreshing 😋.
I think I'll change the look of the packet to look like juice and chew it while I'm working 😙Maybe it will help me get some work done 🤣.

Good morning...
I have read your report on Kame no Kai Semishigure and it is one of the sakes I would like to drink... but I don't see Kame no Kai itself 😥I can see why you would need a bottle 🤩but you know... fridge problem....

Hi Kojo 😃.
I'm sorry you can't find turtle sea for sale 😓I'll have to find a way to make use of it on my business trip or something 🧐.
We have a small fridge that can hold exactly one bottle waiting to be put to use 😊I'm not using it right now 😅.

酔いどれキリン
Always delicious Machida Shuzo nigori!
The flavor is light, but when mixed together, it has a rich umami flavor.

たけるパパ
KUWAGATA" designed by UNIED ARROWS based on the pace of "Kabutomushi" by SENKOKU...2025
Label printed on the bottle
The rice used is 100% Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki
Alcohol content is 13 degrees Celsius
Natural secondary fermentation in bottle
This year's "Kuwagata" is a bubbly sake... with a tag ⚠️ warning you to open the bottle😅.
Unlike the last 5 years aged bubbly, the stopper is a screw type. As soon as you twist it, it starts bubbling vigorously and the oli is agitated by the bubbles. This time, the bottle was opened successfully! There is no mistaking the screw stopper.
When the bottle is opened, the aroma is not very fragrant, with a faint, fresh smell.
When poured into the sake cup, it is a pale yellowish color, slightly hazy with agitated ori, fine bubbles rise persistently, and the sake is smooth and silky.
Upon sipping, a refreshing sweet and sour taste like apples with a clean mouthfeel first hits the palate. Fruity like lemon squash or honey lemon pickled in its peel😄.
After the citrus sweet and sourness, the soft sweetness and umami taste is deep in the mouth. The aftertaste is well-balanced between mellowness and crisp acidity, with a thin bitterness like lemon peel that tightens the overall flavor.
It has a more rounded and gentle sweetness than the previous five-year aged bubbly, which I prefer 🤗.

I still have 5 bottles of sake that I haven't yet listed because I haven't been able to catch up on my writing 😅I'll give you this seasonal news first 🤗.
J&N‼️ is closed until today, Wednesday.
Sunday afternoon we moved to Ichikawa, where Jay's father lives, to support my sister 🚙 and on this day we had a welcome party 🎉 for my daughter's boyfriend 🇺🇸 who came back to Japan 🥳 We hadn't seen each other since GW, but this time he will start his 3 years in Japan ‼️
My sister joined us and we all went shopping for drinks for the evening! Then, we added some salt fried chicken that Nobby made at his request, and the party started 😄.
First of all, he bought a beer with orange 🍊 for everyone to drink 🍻...he does something fancy, doesn't he 😁...it was fruity and delicious 😙.
And for this day, we brought Chuai-san ❣️ from Tochigi with the hope that they will be considerate to each other as they start to live together in earnest 😊.
The sake was a refreshing and tasty bottle unlike the darker label 😆 we ended up drinking it together 😅I hope I conveyed the feeling 😌.
And Nobby was struggling to understand his English 🔤😆 he was so engrossed in the conversation that he said he didn't get drunk at all no matter how much he drank 🤣.
Tochigi love 🥰 of the day 🇯🇵 & 🇺🇸 rice toast in Chiba
