At Niigata wo Kome
Comparison of 3 kinds of sake
All of them are new to me 🐰🎶.
Niigata is the image of dry junmai sake ✨
It is the holy land of Gohyakumangoku sake rice!
The first one is a junmai sake with an alc of 18% and a milling ratio of 60%!
It has a refreshing taste with a softness of rice in the mouth and is very drinkable!
Simple is the best ✨, the royal road of sake!

After a long night of Go Around Osaka, I woke up late at a hotel in Shinsaibashi 🐰.
I went to Niigata, which was recommended by Rafa and Umaïsan 🎶.
And my first ✨Midorikawa✨!
I've been wanting to try this sake since I saw it in a book💕.
I didn't realize how popular it was for a plain Junmai sake.
Uitatekou has a gentle rice aroma.
The sweetness of the rice spreads gently and elegantly in the mouth 😍.
It's not outstanding in any way, it's like a spring breeze caressing a meadow ✨.
I think I could drink it endlessly if I made it a food sake 🙂.
Midorikawa✨I'd love to try a variety 💕

Sake from Niigata and Nagaoka will follow.
We will have it in a handy 300ml.
I am sure I have had it before, but this time, the first sip was especially "spicy!
This time, I thought it was especially spicy at first sip. I thought, "It's spicy!
However, I can't rely on my taste buds, so just for reference...
As I am sure is well known to everyone, there are 16 sake breweries in Nagaoka.
Is it the benefit of the Shinano River, which is the largest river in Japan?
I would like to visit them, but I cannot visit all of them in the short time I have for sightseeing...
I don't remember what I bought at the Ponshu-kan in Nagaoka Station before, but I remember that I was wondering what to buy.
Nagaoka was heavily damaged in the Boshin War (Hokuetsu War).
Compared to the Aizu War, the Hokuetsu War seems to be less known.
However, some of you may have seen the movie "Touge" (Mountain Pass), which is based on Tsugunosuke Kawai, who fought with a Gatling gun to protect Nagaoka, and was released this year.
I will visit both places next time I visit Yoshinogawa, as there is a place about 10 minutes by car from the museum where Tsugunosuke Kawai made his decision to start the war.
Spicy! But delicious.
Shinano River, Tsugunosuke Kawai, and the Hokuetsu War
The reasonably sized bottle was quickly emptied as we reminisced.

Sake that travels through the four seasons: Fireworks in Nagaoka
Sake Brewer in Nagaoka, Niigata.
I was attracted by the package design and bought it.
The "Tabineko" by Toshinori Mori, who lives in Nagaoka
series labeled sake.
It is cute.
Fireworks" are the most striking feature of this series.
Nagaoka is famous for fireworks.
Personally, I don't actively think about going to see fireworks, so I haven't gone to see the fireworks in Nagaoka either...
The fireworks in Nagaoka are set off on the day after August 1, the day after the Nagaoka air raid, as a memorial to the victims of the war and to pray for postwar reconstruction.
When I was in Nagaoka about 4 years ago.
I realized once again that Nagaoka had suffered great damage from the Boshin War and the air raids of the Pacific War.
The brewery with this cute label is located
The brewery with the cute label is located a little south of Nagaoka and did not suffer from the war damage, but the brewery was destroyed by the Chuetsu Earthquake in 2004.
Nagaoka has recovered despite the harsh conditions.
Behind the cute label, you can feel both loneliness and strength.
The sake is also full of flavor, and I took my time to enjoy it.
Gulp!

A slightly different kind of drink...
Correct.
It's not that the sake is unusual.
It's not that the sake is unusual, but that the package is unusual.
Purchased at a store of Niigata products.
GO SPADE (POCKET) Junmai-shu
What a surprise!
Hot water boiling OK, freezing OK
Microwave heating is not allowed.
Please warm it in hot water for about 1 minute without boiling (high temperature will cause the bag to expand). (The bag will expand at high temperatures.)"
This container is easy to take camping or barbecue.
You can even sneak it into a crack in your luggage...
There seem to be various sake versions (7 kinds), but I chose the Junmai (sharp and dry).
I transferred it to a cup at home...
Ah, 100ml.
About 0.6 gou. It's really just a sip.
I didn't even have time to remember that it was Niigata sake.
It kind of felt like an event to drink it, and it was enjoyable.
Maybe next time I will enjoy several kinds side by side?
Even if I drink two kinds of sake, it is only a little bit more than one cup.
It is fun to compare two different kinds of sake.
Rice polishing ratio: 60% Volume: 100ml Alcohol content: 15.5
Producer: Tsunan Jozo Co.

I was curious about the sake that Shang Shu KANON was drinking.
It was sweeter and more fruity than I expected. It is light and easy to drink, and has a weak sake taste.
It tastes somewhat like Blue Hawaii.
According to the official website, the rice is Takananishiki.
Along with this sake, I bought some Ego, which I learned about from Hiraccio's post, at an antenna store!
It was delicious, with a texture like agar or trokoten 😀.

Good morning.
How can you remember such a thing?
It's a small place and I'm too scared to go there now, but it's a nice place.
The rare sake is for Mr. Bouken, and the regular sake and honjozo sake are versatile enough for me!

Shinjo, good morning!
That store is very small😅especially the sake section.... It's fun just to look at the wide range of sake they carry, from the popular ones to the regular ones for the locals 😊.

Kozusumori Junmai Daiginjo Nama
The Junmai Ginjo from Kozumori that I sent to my wife on White Day was a big hit ✌️.
So I got a Daiginjo for our wedding anniversary (3/22) 🎁.
He likes it so much he won't open the bottle 🥰.
It seems he opened the bottle by himself when I was away the day before yesterday because I had a drinking party 😅...
The bottle spilled as soon as it was opened💦.
Good to know you are in good spirits👍️.
I asked him to let me drink it yesterday and he only gave me a cup 😭
It tastes like strawberry milk 🍓🐄.
I'd rather pair it with a stand alone or dessert🍰 than a meal🥰.
But still, only one glass... 🥲.
Well, if you like it, good for you... 🤣

My wife is the type of person who eats what she likes first, but she has a hard time opening this drink, and even after she does, she drinks it in small sips 😆.

It says "nigori" in the bottle, but it's only a light nigori or origarashi. It's a bit sweeter than most Midorikawa I've had. It's a type that explodes with the flavor of rice. The acidity is strong.
I wrote that it is sweet, but it is basically spicy. I wrote that it is sweet, but it is basically spicy.

It seems to be the smallest brewery in Niigata. According to the internet information, the brewery will be closed in the current generation.
According to the information on the back label, the brewery outsources the brewing to Hara Shuzo of Koshi no Homare and doesn't brew its own sake. It's very refreshing, and although it's an aluzoe, I don't mind it. It's a common type of slightly sweet honjozo. It's good even if it's a consignment brew. The taste of the rice is amazing!

They had a 4-gallon bottle, so I bought some Junmai Ginjo.
It is slightly foamy and lightly nigori. It's a little more reserved than Jun-Dai, but it has a solid fruity sweet flavor. It's like a Yakult with soda. It has a richness like a fruit wine. It has a little bit of strawberry milk.
It's a bit expensive, but I think I prefer the Pina Pina Junmai Daiginjo.
These were my impressions on the first day, but maybe my taste buds were bugged? When I drank it later, I found it to be very rich and sweet, but a bit dull. It is like Miyoshikiku.

According to the official website and the liquor store's website, it's an unfiltered, unpasteurized, unpasteurized sake.

I've been sober for a few days, but I've lifted the ban.
Is it the limited sake prepared for the Niigata Sake Festival?
The usual brand is called "Tenjinbayashi". It has a juicy and rich sweet taste. It has a sweet taste that is not like Niigata sake. It is not fruity and the aroma is a bit quirky. It may be different for each taste.
It is sweet, but it has a chunky sweetness...

This brewery was closed in April this year due to the effects of Corona and other factors. It is said that there is no reopening schedule, so it is practically closed. The official site has disappeared, and it looks like the company has been sold. It would be nice if the company that bought it would let it reopen...
It's a rich, umami type that's different from the general image of Niigata's sake. It has a sweetness from the rice. As it has won a gold medal, I'm sure this sake would be delicious warmed. It also has a creamy sweetness.

After the round sweetness spreads fluently, a very light sourness follows, and a solid bitterness remains at the back of the throat to finish the aftertaste.
The soft mouthfeel and sweetness certainly evoke a spring-like tenderness.

Fruity, with a good balance of sweetness and spiciness. When it's well chilled, you don't feel the spiciness so much, but a gentle fluffy sweetness.

Very fizzy. Beautiful acidity and juicy sweet flavor. I wish I had bought it in a 4-pack. It's like a Calpis soda.
According to the liquor store that carries it, it's unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, and it's made with shizuku-tori, a process called bag-hanging. That makes the price a little high.

This is Murasuke's brand for local market. I bought it at the antenna shop in Umeda. There is almost no information even if I search it. There is a Junmai Ginjo spec called Karokaro which is also from Hanakoshiji. The taste is too good for 800 yen.
But basically, it's just a classic aluzoe sake with a glimpse of Murasuke, so don't expect too much.
