Here's another bottle that a friend brought to a house party. A bottle brewed with a rare rice called Nojoho from Hyogo Prefecture! It was the first time for me to drink this sake rice, but it has an austere ginjo aroma and a crisp, umami mouthfeel, and as you gulp it down, the richness of the flavor gradually spreads. It was a tasty bottle of sake that made even the thickest negitoro (green onion soup) go down without a hitch! Rice polishing ratio: 53% (100% Nojoho from Hyogo Prefecture) Alcohol content: 16%.

When I invited friends over for drinks at my house over the weekend, they brought me a Hakkaiyama three-year old bottle stored in a snow cellar. Hakkaiyama has always been one of my favorite brands, but this was my first time to taste a Junmai Daiginjo with three years of snow chamber storage! When I buy sake on my own, I tend to buy sake from the same brewery and with similar tastes, but at a gathering of sake-loving friends, it's fun to have sake that I don't normally drink! Hakkaisan is a dry and strong sake that I often get when I want to get drunk, but this Junmai Daiginjo, which has been in the snow cellar for three years, is a mildly dry sake with a nice square taste! At first, when served at a cooler temperature, it tasted more sharp than sweet, but as the temperature gradually rose, it blossomed. The mildness is still there, but the sweetness and the umami are softer and the lingering taste is more enjoyable than the sharpness. It is a bottle that can be enjoyed by both those who like dry wine and those who like sweet wine more than dry wine. Rice polishing ratio: 50%. Alcohol content: 17%.

It is carbonated, though not gushingly so. It is quite sour and not too sweet, but the bitterness is rather pronounced. It is refreshing and suitable for summer. Two days after opening the bottle, the carbonation is naturally weaker and the bitterness is a little more pronounced. It is not too sweet, so I could enjoy it.

Today, while I was dashing off to buy some koei chrysanthemum with Sairai during my lunch break, I had to give up on the way due to a work problem that occurred. Too bad. We got ourselves back on track and opened a bottle of the new Koei-Kiku. Incidentally, Shinjuku Isetan seems to have started selling Koei Kiku. The aroma was of discreet muscat and lactic acid. The gasiness is not so strong. Sourness is strong. Not much sweetness. Quite dry. The acidity continues and is joined by bitterness, ending with a short aftertaste. As rumored, it is a unique Koei Kiku. Not my favorite flavor, but I thought this would be a good mid-meal sake.

I took my revenge on the Huabao, which I had broken on the way home after buying it earlier. It tastes like Hanaboe, with a sour taste. It was not a splashy, active nigori clear sake, as if it was bottled in a bottle.

Iki Island's only sake brewery, famous for its chingu. sake making has been revived since 2018. According to the people at the sake counter, the toji has experience training at Jyushiyo. Anyway, the gorgeous aroma is amazing. Bliss while watching the fireplace at an acquaintance's house.

We were able to recover a snowman that was being sold quietly at Isetan Shinjuku! There were a lot of 1-square-bottle and 4-gallon bottles left, but our refrigerator was full, so we bought a 4-gallon bottle and opened it right away! As you can see from the pure white oli that collected underneath, the taste was delicious, with the sweetness and deliciousness of the rice matched with a pleasant sense of gas! It's still before the first snowfall, but I drank it up right away! There are still some stores that sell it, so I'd like to go look for a second bottle! Rice polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 60% (100% Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki) Alcohol content: 13 degrees

We had some expensive sake brought by a friend! It's 7,700 yen for a four-pack, but I can't afford it myself! When the brewer came to Isetan, he told us that this was one of the limited six bottles of Shizuku-shu (Chokai no Shizuku) from Tenju Shuzo! The taste is very beautiful! The sweetness, the acidity, and the umami break off beautifully, and at the end, the fragrance leaves a long aftertaste in the mouth... It has a very beautiful taste without any miscellaneous flavors. Rice polishing ratio: 35% (100% Yamada Nishiki from Akita Village, Hyogo Prefecture) Alcohol content: 17 degrees
