Saitama is a summer sake from Koedo Kagamiyama Shuzo. The label may be something like a handicapped person's drawing, which the creators have inflated. I heard it is called "Reart.
The specs are Junmai Daiginjo and raw sake. I found out that it uses Saitama G yeast. When I drank it, it had a juicy pineapple feel, just like the label says. The sweetness and acidity of the rice also gave it a sugar cane-like flavor in my opinion.
It is a gorgeous sake, so I think it is highly satisfying even when drunk on its own. It would go well with pasta with tomato sauce or pizza. I recommend drinking it chilled.

This is Daimine's summer limited edition sake. The limited edition has a stylish label.
Daimine has a fruity and modern flavor. This is also a low-alcohol type with 13% alcohol. It has a mild acidity and sweetness, like a white wine without bitterness. A little pineapple? Peach? It also has a slight pineapple or peach flavor.
I think there are many fruity summer wines that are refreshing and easy to drink. This one also makes good use of the acidity, while giving a refreshing feeling. It would go well with fresh cheese.

This is a special order item for the sake shops of Higashitsuru, a company we have been serving a lot recently. This one is made with Saga no Hana (flower of Saga) and is bottle warmed and hi-seasoned to preserve its fruity flavor. We have high expectations.
It has a melon-like sweetness, but it is not too sweet and the aroma is not too strong, so it is quite refreshing. It may be the type that is popular these days. It can be enjoyed by itself or with food.
Higashi-Tsuru is a family-owned business, and I don't think the production volume was that large. However, they have pursued the pursuit of flavor by deepening the well and are a brewery that I would like to continue to patronize in the future.

Shanshu No. 4 is the name of the rice. It is also known as "Jade Miao". It is the parent of the famous Sake Mirai rice developed by Jyushiyo. What kind of sake will it be?
It has a softness that is typical of Kudokido-Ute, and while it retains its sweetness and mildness, it does not lose its sweetness. It still has a peachy taste, but it also has a melon-like taste. It is not too sweet and seems to go well with various meals.
The latest trend is to have fresh sake with a high acidity, but Kudoi Ue is somehow modern even though it has a low acidity. With 15% alcohol by volume, it also has a light feeling. I would like to pair it with simmered dishes.

This is a series that I end up getting every year. Akabu is a sake that is becoming increasingly well known for its taste. The Nakadori (raw) sake is a sake that has to be good.
It is very juicy, just like its reputation for being peachy. However, I also think that Akabu has the characteristic of not being too sweet and can be drunk smoothly. That is also possible. It is sweet and fruity without being too heavy, and my impression is that it is between peach and apple.
It can be served with nuts or cheese as the main ingredient, or it may go well with slightly lighter sashimi or simmered dishes. It has a modern taste and can be enjoyed by beginners. It is a modern drink that can be enjoyed by beginners, but even those who are used to drinking it will be satisfied with its deliciousness.

The package has a picture of a grape on it, and it is indeed a grape! The package has a picture of a grape, and it is a grape! Like a juicy white wine. Delicious.
==From Raifuku's website === Shunyo rice is a variety of rice with a reduced percentage of soluble protein.
Shunyo is a variety of rice with a reduced proportion of soluble protein, and is called "low glutelin rice" because the protein is not easily absorbed by the body. Sake made with this rice is aromatic and refreshing, and the amount of amino acids, which can cause a cloying taste, can be reduced, resulting in a light sake with a slightly sweet taste.

A production soil that you can't help but buy.
This time it is Yamada-Nishiki Ni-Farm.
The bottle was opened with a pop and vigor, but the mouthfeel seemed less fizzy than usual.
Furthermore, it had a fresher and slightly lactic acidic taste than the other San-do sakes we have had recently. It is a natural umami.
It tasted more natural than any other San-do we have drank so far, but it also had a good overall clarity and sweetness.

It is a special liquor store order from Musical Instrument Masamune and is said to be inspired by the Sauvignon Blanc of wine. I was intrigued by this instrumental Masamune, which has been a big help to us since last year.
After opening the bottle, there was a faint peachy aroma. The taste is definitely white wine-like, but this one has no peculiarities and is easier to drink than wine. It has a gentle sweetness with not too much acidity, like pears, grapes, and peaches. It's absurdly good.
It is 13% alcohol, so it is easy to drink. I think it would go well with fresh cheese and crackers.

A slightly expensive Akabu.
I bought it, telling myself that it is a Junmai Daiginjo, so it can't be helped.
The gold label is also cool.
The taste was so gorgeous that I wondered if Akabu had been like this for a long time. The taste is so gorgeous that I wondered if Akabu was like this.
It has a deep sweetness and umami like a kijo sake, and it is different from a so-called junmai daiginjo in terms of gravity.
However, the acidity is well-balanced, so you can enjoy it without getting tired of drinking it, which is wonderful.
However, I think I should have tasted it more carefully. It ran out quickly.

This sake is a special order item from a liquor store and is a spec that is not usually available on the market. This spec is a direct-drafted, unpasteurized sake, which gives it a fresh taste. The alcohol content is slightly low at 15%. It is said to be dry.
The actual taste is refreshing and fruity. It has a sharp alcohol taste with little acidity. The flavor and aroma are similar to that of peaches and melon.
I wonder if it would go well with lightly vinegared dishes. It was a very tasty bottle.
