Hanamup's Sake Mirai. Since I only have a bottle and can't keep it at home, I decided to have it standing 🍶. The exterior is clear crystal. The aroma is very pleasant ginjo aroma with fresh yellow apple, pear, and other sweet and gorgeous atmosphere. ☺️ When the temperature rises, there is also a faint scent of rice with a hint of koshinko (rice powder). On the palate, it starts with sweetness mixed with sourness, followed by a light, round acidity that passes through the nose and finishes with a sharp edge. It has a strong flavor, yet it is light and mellow, making it very delicious 😊. I found it to be a good sake with a very fine aroma and taste. It's a great sake, and I'm sure it's only because I studied under Tatsugoro Takagi of Jyushidai. This will run out quickly in a four-pack bottle, so a one-pack bottle might be the right choice 😁. I'd like to drink it at home, so I'd like to see a few more Yongou bottles 🥲.

Aladdin, good evening 🦉. Sake Mirai drinking comparison sounds delicious 😻I kind of like Hanamup, but this year I'm only going to drink the four-pack 💦I hope all of them will be released in four-pack bottles😊.

Good evening, Pon 😃. Personally, I think Sake Mirai is a sake rice that can change a thousand ways depending on the brewer's design, so I believe the flavor can vary quite a bit from brewery to brewery 🍶. I'd like to see not only Suidama and Ryoseki but also Hanayuup in four-pack bottles 🥺.

Sawa-no-Izumi Special Junmai Nakadori Unfiltered Nama Kansai Sake-no-Izumi New Year's Party ㉕ This is Sawanoizumi, which is also new to us. It was a special order from Sake-no-Kawashima. It smelled a little, and the acidity and sweetness were impressive... I also had a bottle of Raku no se. It's high in alcohol content and has a pineapple-like taste, but it's delicious. It's too strong to drink at home though😅. It's lighter and easier to drink than the Raku-no-Se that I drank at home. After we parted, Yoohee and I went to the neighborhood liquor store, which is becoming a regular event 😁. We arrived at the nearest station around 10:30pm, but it was almost 11:30pm when we got home 😅. Lastly, I know it must have been hard work for you to organize the meeting, choose the restaurant, and coordinate the schedule, but thank you very much for your hard work in organizing the meeting 🙇.

Kansai Sake-new year party ㉔ After a short cab ride, we went to Chuin-san, familiar to us from Aladdin-san's post. Inokashira, a sake I had never heard of until now😅. The rice used is Hitogokochi. I think it was fresh, fruity and gently sweet 🤔.

Second drink of the day 🍶. Speaking of CHUIN, we have a new sake for you. Today's sake is Hitogokochi Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake. The appearance is clear crystal with yellow tints. The aroma is a sweet, gorgeous, fruity ginjo aroma based on the freshness of Shinshu Kamerei 🥰. This is the one after all. In the mouth, the first touch of refreshing light acidity is followed by a rich fruity sweetness. ☺️ The fruity acidity with a hint of bitterness and pleasant stimulation flows down the back of the throat and finishes with a sharp finish. The lingering aftertaste is medium in length with a mild astringency, typical of nama sake. It is sweet and gorgeous, yet refreshingly fruity. Yet, overall, it is beautifully balanced without being cloying. I still love 🐢 Hitokochi. ☺️ I would drink this kind of sake everyday 365 days a year 🍶. Thank you for the treat 😊.

I went to chuin again today 🍶. I came to chuin long after Yasube and Kaorin 🚶. Yukawa Sake Brewery was founded in 1650 and is the second oldest brewery in Nagano Prefecture. The current owner is Naoko Yukawa, the 16th generation. Located deep in the mountains of Kisoji in Shinshu, the second highest sake brewery in Japan at 936 meters above sea level, the brewery brews "Kisoji" and "Kuroemon XVI" by brewing sake that is resistant to cold weather. Its brewing techniques are so advanced that Kuroemon XVI's Junmai Ginjo Miyamanishiki was selected as the Champion Sake🏆, the number one sake of all sakes at IWC 2023, and is now a hot brewery. The sake we drank this time, Kuroemon XVI, is a private-brand sake from Jizakeya Miyajima, a Shinshu sake specialty store. It is a pure rice sake made from 100% Hitogochi from Yaehara, Shinshu. The exterior is crystal with a hazy yellow color. The aroma is refreshingly sour apricot and faint apple, with a hint of joshin powder. The mouthfeel is refreshingly smooth. While the refreshing acidity, including a slight gasiness and small acidity, spreads over the base, the mild sweetness and umami spreads quickly on the tongue, and the acidity finishes off at the back of the throat in a pleasant manner. The overt aroma has a rich rice aroma. I thought it would be a fancy type of sake since I heard it is popular now, but it was very gentle and easy to drink and delicious sake only for junmai sake. ☺️

Today, I met up with my wife at a restaurant called "chuin" where I have recently started to visit, and we went there because they had Shinshu Kamerei's Hitogokochi. We compared the standard Sairai, the first Koeigiku, and Urasato's light nigori 2 😀. It was a gorgeous comparison of my favorite flavors 😀. I was especially surprised by Urasato's Usu-Nigori 2 😇. I had had Usu-Nigori before as a home drinker, so I thought there wouldn't be much difference, but it was something else 🤣 The aroma was a bit more subdued than the previous one. The aroma was a bit more subdued than the previous one, but the taste was more distinct than the previous one, more like calpis 😇.

One of the three bottles I really wanted to drink this year. I was able to drink Shinshu Kamerei and Yoshida Kurau at home, but I couldn't find Sairai no matter how hard I looked for it, so when I saw on instagram that it was opened today at a store introduced by Aladdin, I dashed over there after work 😀. It tasted fresh and fruity just as I had imagined after reading your post 😀. And since it's a "Hana Sumi", it's light and cloudy, which is my favorite 😀. And since I was the first one there, I was lucky enough to have them cut the seal right in front of me, so I was able to taste the fresh sealed aroma as well 😀. I had to rush out of the store after this one because I had a taiko lesson at 6pm, but I wonder if I can play the taiko 🤣.

This is the first sake from the brewery that I have ever had 🍶. It is Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama. Ena Jozo is a sake brewery located in the countryside of terraced rice fields at an altitude of around 600 meters in the mountains of Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture, overlooking the Central Alps. The brewery was founded in 1818, around the end of the Edo period, and today the brewery's toji, an 11th generation Nanbu toji, brews the sake "Kujeruwa" that has been produced since the brewery's founding. The reason why it is called "whale wave🐳" even though it is a sake from deep in the mountains⛰️ is because "the clouds flowing over the mountains resembled a whale swimming gracefully"... 🙄. The word "whale wave" is read as "geiha", which also means "a great wave like that caused by a whale" or "a battle cry raised by many people", so it is also said to express a wish for a leap, a breakthrough, etc. 🤔. The appearance is clear crystal. The main aroma is typical of sake, with a sweet aroma of red apples and melon that is faintly present in the background, and a smooth rice aroma like rice cakes. The mouthfeel is soft and smooth, with umami and acidity spreading quickly at the same time, with a beautiful sweetness as it clears to the back of the throat. It is very sharp and leaves no aftertaste. It has no pretentiousness, and you will not get tired of drinking it. Delicious 🥰. Could have been a good flow from the Hanahayo: ☺️ I learned another good sake 😄.

Good morning Aladdin 😃 I've been interested in Kujerami for quite a while now, but I can only buy it at Hechikan, so I've been putting it off 😅. The name gives me an image of a heavy sake, but it's a beautiful sake 😋.

I had to run a few errands and went to my usual chuin 🚶. Luckily, there was still some Kahayo Yoku left after 3 days of opening, so we had the last of it 🍶. It's a premium Miyamanishiki, 40% polished rice, orikarami. ☺️ The appearance is a thin misty white with a soft, cloudy, flowery appearance. The aroma is a gorgeous but soft-touch ripe pineapple-type ginjo aroma with a rounded rice aroma 🌾. The mouthfeel is smooth and sweet, and the acidity spreads quickly with a gorgeous hint of fragrance, leaving a stimulating bitter and sour taste that finishes off. The sweetness itself is light, but the gorgeous hint of sweetness makes it seem even sweeter. The lingering aftertaste is gentle, with a pleasant astringency on the tongue. I thought it might be too lively since it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, but perhaps it is because it is orikarami, or because it is the third day after opening the bottle, but the overall mouthfeel is gentle and soft, like a spring sake. The impression I had of the fresh pineapple that I had had with Huayouyu has been broadened a bit! It was delicious😊. By the way, today's sake cup is the Kashihara Shrine's zodiac cup for the year of Kashihara 🤔. This is something I want to collect 😄.

I haven't had Shichida for a while since the brand I had before was drier than I expected and not to my liking. But I like Kyushu sake, so I followed Tenzan Shuzo's Instagram and had a look at it, and I wanted to try it again 🍶. So I decided to have this sake that looked delicious. Very refreshing ginjo aroma with fresh and sweet aroma of young melon and banana mixed with a chili-like aroma of squeezed citrus peel ☺️ It has a bit of a coffee shop soda feel to it. On the palate, from the refreshing attack like when you drink a soda, the chiri-chiri-yaki feeling and the firm umami with a slight melon feeling comes onto the tongue with a good amount of sweetness and acidity that is unbearably good 😳. While the umami firmly supports the whole, refreshing sweetness flows from the mid-palate along with the same refreshing acidity, and finally it finishes with a light acidity. It is very crisp and has a short aftertaste. This is really delicious 😳. It's different from my favorite sweet and fruity, but it tastes like a fresh and tasty acidity 😊. It has the freshness of unfiltered raw! I've also been curious about the new Shichida Oragami Nama, so I'll be trying a lot of Shichida in the future 🍶.

I drank it on the opening day because I thought it was the first Yamae Nishiki in this season's Shinshu Kamerei 😄. The aroma is a sweet, fruity ginjo aroma 🥰. Of all the Shinshu Kamerei I've had so far this season, this Yamae Nishiki is the most aromatic and fruity. ☺️ Kore Kore Kore, I love this fruity aroma 😊. In the mouth, the light acidity is followed by a fruity sweetness, which is also fruity with a hint of incense. From the mid-palate, the acidity flows down the back of the throat, and the beautiful bitterness is felt firmly as it finishes. The finish is sharp with a good lingering aftertaste. The taste is clean and full of flavor, and the flavor profile is clear as if it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, with a vivid sweet flavor and acidity, as well as a beautiful bitterness. Every time I drink it, I think it will be very tasty, but it is always even better than that. ☺️ When it comes to sweet and tasty fruity with sourness and bitterness, it is nothing but my favorite 😊. I thought Yamae Nishiki had a distinct aroma and bitterness 🤔.

Actually, on Friday I drank one Urasato sake outside and one at home 🍶. I went to chuin for one of those outings, and this is the "Urasato Junmai Sake Honnen". It was delivered from Urasato Sake Brewery to Crazy Salad House and Mekawa Sake Shop, then immediately delivered to chuin-san, and the owner, Mr. Kawada, was too eager to drink it and opened the bottle right after that 😁. This bottle was probably the fastest bottle of this year's Urasato Junmai Sake to be opened at a restaurant in the Kansai region 😄. It's so fast that we don't have it on our regular menu 😅. The appearance is a warm clear crystal. Mild fruity & rice cake aroma is faintly present. Drink it, the flavor is strong😳. Smooth on the palate, developing from a rich sweetness to a refreshing acidity, and then snapping back, with a lingering faint bitterness in the aftertaste. Too much 🥰. It would be great if I could guess the sake rice with this flavor. I can understand why Mr. Chikara Urasato says that sake rice accounts for only 20% or less of the flavor of sake. At any rate, I decided to immediately secure a four-pack. I am looking forward to seeing how it changes after the bottle is opened, since it tastes like this three hours after opening. I would like to try heating it up, and I would also like to take the time to enjoy this Urasato Junmai Sake again.

This is Wakamusume Ruri Karakusa Unfiltered Nama Sake. Ruri Karakusa is what we call nemophila. The label design is beautifully inspired by the image of nemophila, which reminds us of a blue carpet spreading all over the area. Shintani Brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture is a small sake brewery run by a married couple. Fumiko Shintani, a former nurse, took over as toji (chief brewer) and brewing manager from her husband Yoshinao in 2018, and is struggling daily to make sake. In 2019, the brewery's facilities were completely renovated and the quality of the sake has improved remarkably, making it one of the breweries that I personally pay attention to. The appearance is clear crystal and the aroma is mild. On the palate, the smooth mouthfeel is followed by a dense sweetness reminiscent of ripe peaches and apricots, and then a more refreshing fruity acidity comes forward, followed by umami and bitterness that spread to the back of the palate and finish with a sharp finish. After the finish, there is a slight alcohol taste. The acidity has juicy, citrusy, refreshing nuances, and the after-flavor is bittersweet, which is also delicious. ☺️ It may not matter if it's a male or female, but sakes brewed by female toji are more likely to be gorgeous and fruity, which is more likely to suit my tastes 🥰. Fortunately, there is a store not too far away that carries them, so I'd like to try some at home from time to time 🍶.

Kachikoma Shiboritate Honkai (Seito Sake Brewery/Toyama Prefecture). We heard that Seito Sake Brewery also stopped brewing for a while due to the damage caused by the Noto Peninsula earthquake. We heard that they have already resumed brewing, but we drank a small amount to support them. It is a freshly squeezed, unpasteurized sake, commonly known as hiragana kachikoma🍶, which is only available during the new sake season. The appearance is clear crystal. It has a fruity and gentle aroma of fresh apples and bananas with a hint of blue grass. The texture is slightly thickened, with a smooth spread of clean sweetness and umami, followed by the attack of a guttural alcohol taste! The gentle and beautiful sweet umami of rice spreads softly and finishes with a kick. The 18% alcohol content gives it a strong stimulus, but it does not lose its freshness and cleanness, so it is the type of wine that you can't help but drink it with gusto. ☺️ It should be delicious with food 🥰. I would like to match it with sashimi. ☺️

Good morning, Aladdin 😀 Kachikoma was up on the lineup yesterday 😀. I've been looking at your instagram at 2pm lately and was wondering about this drink too 😅. If I didn't have something to do last night, I would have been there too 🤣.

Hi Pon 😃 I was curious about Katsikoma because the owner once told me that this is the only Katsikoma he buys 😊. It's very tasty, but I felt that the gentleness and gentle elegance that is typical of Katsushikoma might be easier to feel when it's fire-roasted 😄.

Today's chuin-san 🍶. Guests are Yasubeyesan and Orin 😳. Thank you very much for today 🍶. I was introduced to chuin-san as a way of saying hello to you since you cared about him. It was my first time to meet them, but as I had seen in the sakewa, they were enjoying sake together as a couple, and it made me happy to be there with them 😊. The toast was with Jikin, which opened today! The exterior is clear crystal with fine gas bubbles in the glass 🫧. It has a very pleasant ginjo aroma with fruity yellow apples, apricots, melon, and a refreshing acidity. ☺️ On the palate, a light acidity spreads quickly, followed by a beautiful sweetness that quickly mingles with the gentle acidity, which diffuses and then quiets down to disappear. The finish is mildly bitter and tight. As it is a pure sake, both the aroma and taste have clear contours and a lively freshness 😄. The aroma is good and the taste is clean and very coherent, just like a junmai ginjo. ☺️ I like it very much among the Jikin and would like to drink it at home 🍶. I also drank Choyo Fukumusume Saito no Shizuku and Shikishima Yamada Nishiki Special Junmai 🍶. I hope you both liked it 😊.

We finished the day with Mikotsuru Junmai Ginjo Yamae Nishiki Unfiltered Nama-shu (Suwa Mikotsuru Sake Brewery/Nagano Prefecture). It was the most gorgeous and darkest positioned sake on the restaurant's taste map of the day 🍶. Suwa Mikotsuru Brewery was revived in 2018 after once being out of business. For only the second time, this junmai ginjo Yamae Nishiki fire-aged sake was not only awarded the first place trophy in the junmai ginjo sake category at IWC 2021, but also won the Champion Sake, the top prize in the entire SAKE category and the No. 1 in the world🏆. This Junmai Ginjo-shu is made from contract-grown Yamae-Nishiki, and this time it is the unfiltered, unpasteurized version. The appearance is clear crystal. The aroma is gorgeous yet calm, juicy and fruity. ☺️ There is also a hint of rice in the back. It has a smooth mouthfeel, with a juicy sweetness with freshness at first attack. The dark sweetness spreads over the tongue, and the acidity with a hint of bitterness spreads softly and gently. It is clean without any cloying taste, fresh, fruity sweet and acidic and tight. Ah, this is delicious 🥰. The analogy is inappropriate but if you like 🐢, you will definitely like this taste 🍶. Of course I love it too😊

Mr. Aladdin. Good evening. I never knew that Mikotsuru is a sake brewery that has gone through such hardships 💦... I often see Mikotsuru's fire-brewed sake, but I haven't come across their unpasteurized sake yet, so I have more to look forward to 🤩.

Good evening, Mr. Kozo 😃. Mikotsuru is a brewery with a checkered history. After Hishiyu Brewery, the original brewer, went bankrupt, Ban-ei Transport in Fukushima took over the business, brought in a new master brewer, updated the facilities, and became Suwa Mikotsuru Sake Brewery 🤔 It is delicious, so please try it!

Sairai Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake (Kitanishi Shuzo/Saitama Prefecture). Sairai is produced by Kitanishi Shuzo, the brewer of Bunraku and Bunraku Reborn. It is a limited distribution brand that will start in 2018 and is meant to be "the arrival of sake from Sai no Kuni (Saitama Prefecture) that will change the world" 🤔. Ryuichiro Kitanishi, the fifth generation brewer, spent five years designing the sake quality, and the concept of Sairai is "the harmony of three elements: aroma, sweetness, and acidity. What he is aiming for is a graceful ginjo aroma, a spreading umami and sweetness of rice, a refined acidity, and a crisp taste. This is the first time for me to try Sairai's special junmai. The appearance is clear crystal. It has a very sour, unripe, berry-like aroma mixed with the aroma of rice. The taste switches from a strong sweetness like strawberry candy to sourness quickly, and the acidity spreads, leaving a slight stimulation and a sharp finish. The impact of the sweetness is so strong that a slight gaseous sensation can be felt afterward. There is also umami in the mid-palate, and each element has an interesting taste that is independent of the others. When you roll it over, the sweetness goes down and the acidity comes up. It has a stronger flavor than the previous Sairai. Due to my inexperience, my perception of the aroma and taste is pulled by the color and design of the etiquette😅.

This is Yamori, Ki Shikkuri No. 6 Junmai Nakadori Unadjusted Nama Shu (Toshimaya Shuzo/Higashimurayama City, Tokyo). Yamori is read as "Okunokami", but there is a picture of a gecko 🦎 on the back etiquette and it is called Yamori 😅. Yamori is a limited distribution sake named after the brewer's desire to keep brewing works that would protect the Toshimaya Sake Brewery and the prosperity of sake retailers and food and beverage outlets. It is brewed in a small brewing process that emphasizes manual labor to the utmost, with the concept of "aromatic and gentle flavor," and is brewed without adjustment (no filtration or water added) and stored entirely in bottles. The sake rice used is basically Hachitan-Nishiki, the pride of Hiroshima. Ki" is also made from 100% Hachitan-Nishiki, and the rice polishing ratio is 55%. The appearance is clear crystal. The aroma is gentle, but fresh and juicy melon with subtle nuances of koshinko. The juicy sweetness and acidity spread smoothly as soon as it enters the mouth, and the taste is quite bitter running from the mid-palate. I had the impression that Hachitan-nishiki is usually a crisp sake like Gohyakumangoku or Miyamanishiki, so I was surprised that the taste was quite strong 😳. It is quite juicy and good, but if you don't like bitterness, the bitterness in the second half may bother you a little. Yamori, I will try other drinks in the future.

Limited distribution sake named after Masayuki Imanishi, the brewer of Imanishi Shuzo (Nara Prefecture), which brews Mimuro Sugi and Mitsumorosugi (cedar) 🍶. The sake is brewed using 100% Asahi rice, which is edible rice, and polished to a 60% ratio in the ginjo-zukuri process. The appearance is clear crystal. The aroma is deep, like ripe bananas. The mouthfeel is mild and smooth, with a deep sweetness reminiscent of bananas that spreads along with a sweet hint of fragrance. From the mid-palate, a clear and moderate acidity spreads softly and finishes off the palate. The aftertaste is short and does not linger. The aroma is also good, with sweet nuances, but it also has a fresh transparency and sharpness, a good feeling 😄. As you drink more and more, you can feel a slight bitterness after the mid-palate, and it becomes tighter, which is also good. ☺️ Delicious ☺️ I like it very much 😊. I still love Asahi rice sake 🥰.

RAIMEI is a new brand from this season of Takachidai Shuzo, Maki-hata. The name "RAIMEI" is derived from the fact that the brewery is located at the foot of Makiki-yama and uses its underground water for brewing. The sake rice used is 100% "Ipponjime" rice grown in Uonuma. The rice is polished by flat polishing and then washed in a highly concentrated oxygen micro-bubble rice washer, which was also introduced this term, to brew this sake. Flattened rice polishing is a rice polishing technique in which the rice is polished equally thick from the surface. This process removes proteins and other substances more efficiently than conventional spherical rice polishing or original rice polishing in which the rice is polished equally thin from the surface, resulting in a cleaner sake with less polished rice. In addition, micro-bubble washing is said to reduce the burden on the rice and wash away only the bran while leaving the flavor layer intact, thus reducing the amount of rice crushed 🤔. I will try it. The appearance is clear crystal. Mild and gentle melon and banana aroma wafts through the rice malt-like sake aroma. A slight gaseous stimulation in the smooth mouthfeel. A strong fruity sweetness comes and goes for a moment, then quickly recedes to reveal a pleasantly stimulating acidity that flows down the back of the throat and finishes with a sharp finish. From the mid-palate onward, one can taste a beautiful umami and a firm bitterness. The lingering aftertaste is moderate and gradual. It fills the gap between Takachiyo and Takachiyo 🤔.
