7/10 Junmai Daiginjo-shu from Sawanohana. This is an unfiltered raw sake type. Compared to the hi-ire type, it is fresher and a little gassy. This one has a stronger aroma, which I prefer. It is also good to taste a bit of astringency and bitterness.

7/10 Okura's special junmai made with Bizen Asahi from Okayama Prefecture. With an alcohol content of 17%, it has a fairly robust flavor. It also has a thickening effect. Okura is said to have many of this type. The mouthfeel is heavy, but the fruity aroma comes afterwards.

6/10 Inazato's first Shiborisake. It is bottled as it is in its raw state, and is nigori sake, which is the second fermentation in the bottle. It had been a little while since the first sip, so the fizziness had settled down, but I enjoyed the slightly sharp taste. It was creamy and rich. I would like to pair it with fried food.

5/10 This sake is treated as Inazato's separate package. It is said to be a limited edition sake. This is my first time to drink Inazato itself, so I don't understand the concept. It is a fresh-brewed sake made from Hitanishiki produced in Ibaraki Prefecture. It has a clean taste with a slight fruity aroma. In the photo, it is paired with mozuku, a strong flavor, but it was a good match, so it could be paired with just about anything.

6/10 Eikun's Spring Sake is made with Kitashizuku from Hokkaido. It uses Shizuoka yeast 5MT-14, a yeast that is not very familiar to most people. Although it is called "flower," the taste is rather dry. It reminded me of a flowery aroma, but it was a robust sake that matched well with a meal.

6/10 It's like a spring sake! The rabbit label is cute. I didn't open my mouth, so I could only feel a slight sense of bubbles, but I knew it was a refreshing sake. It has a strong sweetness with a white peach aroma. It fits the image of the cute label, and people who like rabbits will like this sake. I'll leave it at that.

6/10 The first Mitsuo Yamakawa of 2023. This time the brewer is the Mitobe Brewery. There seems to be a story behind every bottle, and this time it is about a fat Mitsuo Yamakawa who wakes up healthy. It was brewed with an eye toward pairing with yogurt-based dishes, and the use of white malted rice gave it a strong citric flavor. This kind of brewing is interesting. There is also a recipe video on YouTube, and they are well aware of the concept and promotion. I think this is a sake I would like to see spread more widely.

7/10 This sake is made from 25% polished rice called "Nikomaru," which is Nagasaki's rice rice. QUEEN because the flavor is feminine. It was about the color of a lactic acid drink, and as it was, it was a sweet sake. Hiran has a fruity impression, but this one is also quite gorgeous and fluffy. I don't know if it was the rice or what, but it had a kind of light and fluffy impression.

6/10 I was wondering how to read "肆号", but it seems to be a big character for four, and it is read as "shi". Shi-go. Why does it sound a bit wotan? It has a subtitle "Our Acid" (also otaku-ish) and says it is made with white koji 4-dan, which gives it a sour taste. It was indeed sour and crisp, and the quality of the sake was in line with the concept. I wondered what the "4" was. I looked it up but couldn't figure it out, so someone please tell me.

7/10 Yamamoto's No. 7 yeast. By the way, the No. 6 yeast has a red label. This sake has a clear and gorgeous aroma, which is typical of the No. 7 yeast. The ginjo aroma is present, as well as citrus and melon-like sweet aromas. It also has a Yamamoto-like flavor. On the other hand, I wonder if the No. 6 yeast is not like Yamamoto. Let's try it next time.

7/10 This is a collaboration sake with Pantobisco from Yamabusyu. I haven't had this in a while, but I wonder if this is also what is called 4MMP. I don't have the vocabulary. It has a strong muscat aroma and a bubbly taste, so I started to drink it like muscat juice. It's like a young and fresh drink.

5/10 This is said to be Eikawa's standard sake. As it is called "dry," it tastes quite dry. It has a sharp taste and is easier to drink when heated. Eikawa has another brand called Aizu Ryugasawa, which is said to have a very modern taste. I heard that it is not sold very often in Tokyo, so I will look for it.

6/10 Next was Koshi's Risshun Morning Press. It is so luxurious to be able to compare drinks. It has a fruity flavor with a piquancy that is typical of Koshi. The taste was quite different from Eikawa's and it was a fun comparison. It is nice to drink sake that feels the season.

6/10 This is the first time I've had Eikawa's Risshun Morning Squeeze. And I'm nervous to drink it next to the Eikawa sales person next door. The taste is quite dry. I said "It's a little bit thick" because I felt it lingered in my mouth a little, but I guess I was wrong because I didn't get it at all. Sigh.

6/10 A new sake from Hiran. The label was modern looking, and the taste was just as gorgeous as the label. It has a melon-like fruity aroma with a firm sweetness and is light to drink. It's easy to understand, just like a modern sake.

7/10 Tsuchida for heating sake. It was supposed to be served earlier, but they weren't satisfied with the taste, so they aged it for 3 years. I had it at about 40 degrees, and yes, it was good. It had a lot of flavor, and I think the low rice polishing was a good thing. It would be good at 30-40 degrees Celsius, if not even hot.

7/10 Morpho is Ryuki's bespoke series. It is said that this sake is inspired by the butterfly named Morpho. It is also a gold medal-winning sake at the National New Sake Competition. At first, there is an apple aroma and a strong sweetness. It is followed by a refreshing acidity, and then it finishes smoothly. Although it lacks the umami of rice, it is a very easy-drinking sake. It is best drunk cold. I would like to pair it with seafood dishes.

7/10 I drank it at another place. As I wrote at that time, this sake has a gorgeous aroma. It has a sweetness, followed by a sourness. It is characterized by a fresh sweetness like white peach, lychee, or pear. I am amazed that the CEL-24 yeast is able to produce such a sweet aroma.
