Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan⑥. The last drink will be the first Osaka sake! The last drink will be my first Osaka sake! I had been curious about Aki-shika since I read on the POP of Kanese Shoten that it was a brand that classic lovers would be excited about. My memory of it is a little hazy now, I remember thinking, "This is Akishika with its rich, mellow flavor and guttural alcohol taste! I think I thought, "This is Aki-Rika! I would like to heat it up. I've been drinking heated sake more and more lately, so I'm considering getting a sake heater. (Laughs) Before drinking it here, I bought another Aki-Rika at Kanese Shoten and haven't touched it yet, so I'll get to that one soon.

Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan⑤. Classic zone. And the first Hyogo sake! Hyogo is home to many large sake breweries such as Ozeki, Hakutsuru, Takara Shuzo, Sawanotsuru, etc. Although Hyogo ranks first in Japan in sake shipments, how about local sake? I was not so sure about the local sake. This is also a brand I had never encountered before. It has a nice rice flavor and sharpness! (Laughs) Delicious! It's a memory from a month ago, so nothing more can come out... (laughs)

Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan 4. Classic zone. Chose a brand I've never encountered before. The only thing I can say anymore is that the rice is delicious and sharp! That's all I can say. (Laughs) Of course it is delicious. I wanted to try the heated sake, but I didn't have the courage to ask for it, and I wanted to drink other brands, so we ended up going to the next brand.

Pre-birthday celebration Sake Koi Japan 3. From here, we will get into classic sake. Sake Koi has an extensive menu of classic sake. I wanted to try one once, Hayaseura from Fukui. The rice flavor, classic alcoholic acidity, and a nice finish! Delicious! Speaking of Fukui, I personally love Tsuneyama, but Fukui sake is quite sharp and I like it.

Pre-Birthday Celebration Sake Love Japan 2. Continuing with the Halloween menu. First Koei Kiku! I didn't expect to find them here... I had a prestigious image from the brand name, but the sake was far beyond my imagination. When you drink it, you can feel the orange! Orange! 🍊! Is it really sake? It is like that. Like AKABU, this is also assumed to be fire-aged, as there is no mention of unfiltered raw sake. Then I looked at the label again and noticed that there is no mention of the rice polishing ratio. I noticed that it is a Tokutei Meisho sake. In order to state on the label that the sake is a Tokutei Mei Sake, it is necessary to state the rice polishing ratio that meets the requirements. Conversely, if the sake does not claim the specific name, it does not need to list the rice polishing ratio. So, since Anastasia Orange is not labeled as a Tokutei Meisho, it is considered as a regular sake. This was a great learning experience.

I was taken to Sake Koi Japan for a pre-birthday celebration. Since it was before Halloween, the sake lineup was also set up accordingly. First, let's take a look at the sake. Here it is. It's not every day you come across AKABU in Niigata, so you can't miss it. The freshness and a fruity sensation reminiscent of oranges fills the mouth! As expected of a representative of the modern popular horseman, the unfiltered, raw, overwhelming presence of the wine! But when I looked at the bottle, there was no mention of unfiltered or even unfiltered draft. I checked and to my surprise, it was fire-aged. Too scary. It would be difficult to drink this and not think it is unfiltered nama sake. I wonder what kind of process is used to make such an intense taste. Now I have a reason to go back to my hometown...

Sake Koi Japan Part 9. the last. This is the first time to drink Kagawa sake! I drank a lot of sake. I don't know why I chose this last one. Well, I drank 8 bottles, so I guess this was the last one I didn't drink. It's already sticky. It's like drinking yogurt sake lees(?). It is as if I am drinking yogurt sake lees(?). It's a wonder that it's alsochrome, and at 6%. How is it brewed?

Hi FSB 😃 You drank well by adding the gorgeous relay of ikumi -> hana-yoku -> kinjaku 🤗Let's end on a lighter note with a dessert sake! I guess you must have thought of that 😄.

Hi Jay & Nobby! Was it right to drink those rare drinks in this order? Now I'm wondering 😅You're right, the last one might have been the yogurt for a palate cleanser 🤔It was sweet for that... (LOL!)

Sake Koi Japan-san Part 8. Kanji Takachiyo! This is a Niigata limited edition. You can buy it at Ponshu-kan. I don't remember the taste. (I don't remember what it tastes like.) It seems to be brewed with Miyamanishiki and Ipponshime. Takachidai Shuzo doesn't use Gohyakumangoku or Koshitanrei, so I personally don't care for it (laugh), but I love their Junmai Ginjo, which is not a Makiki sezonaru, because it is a very tasty, light sake with a great rice flavor.

Sake Love Japan, Part 7. The best one. Oh, it's delicious. A light sake with a core of rice flavor. This is good. It soaks through. After drinking a lot of rare sake, here is the best act of the day.

Sake Koi Japan No.5. Fukushima Sake. Following Kinjaku, this is another sweet and fruity sake. Fukushima sake has an image of being sweet. It has a strong taste, and I think it is a sake that makes anyone who drinks it feel that it is delicious.

Sake Koi Japan #4. The first Yamaguchi sake! I have never heard of this brand. I found out that this Jungin 50 is a rare sake that does not appear on the market very often. Moreover, the label seems to be different for Yongo and Ichimasu. The aroma and flavor are very gorgeous and fruity. The sweetness is quite strong. There are many fruity Yamaguchi sake, such as Otters and Toyo Bijin. I have never had Toyo Bijin, though.

Sake Koi Japan, Part 3. I never thought I would meet him again.... I never thought I'd meet him again. Hmmm, strawberry? (Laughs) I can't deny the feeling that I'm being pulled in by the eimi I drank just before. (Laughs) It is still young after opening the bottle, and there is a gaseous feeling. The image of a fireworks display? It is a Bizen Oumachi, but it does not have the robust atmosphere characteristic of Oumachi, and the impression is a little sweet and sour with a clean, modern style. However, there is still omachi deep in the flavor. I didn't know that this kind of sake could be made from Omachi.

Sake Koi Japan, Part 2. As soon as I took my seat, I saw an extraordinary lineup. I had no idea that there was an "Imi" (a kind of Japanese traditional drink)! I was taken aback. Basically, I think that such rare sake is something I have no connection to, and I can only imagine and think about the taste by looking at the postings of the people at Sake-no-wa.... I met you here, but it's been a hundred years! I will drink it to the end! Mmm, strawberry! I had imagined a slow-sweet sake, but it is surprisingly refreshingly sweet. The acidity gives the sweetness a three-dimensional effect while also producing a lightness. I don't know what kind of yeast is used, but the combination of flavor, sweetness, and sourness gives it a hint of aroma that reminds me of strawberries. I thought it was a dessert type, but it might also be rather food-like in the abe sense. I never thought I would be able to drink Imi while I was still alive... I am a little deeply moved. (Laughs)

We were given a rare opportunity to drink outside and went to Sake Koi Japan, where rare sake is available. It was their anniversary celebration, and there were some great sakes on the lineup. I'll check in later, but first, a brand I was curious about, Houken from Kure in Hiroshima! We often see it in dancyu and other books. The brewer, Mr. Doitsu, seems to be a famous person. It was almost at the end of the first bottle, so the taste was much more rounded. Perhaps because of this, it is not super dry, but rather has a mild umami and sweetness from the rice, and it finishes clean and crisp. It is rather classic, but I had an image of it as a man's sake with more gusto! I had imagined it to be more like a classic, but with more gusto! I want to buy and drink it myself! This is indeed Hiroshima sake!
