The last one is Hanagaki in Echizen-Ono. I think this one may have had the most character. It was a smooth, sweet, yet sharp and crisp drink. I tried Wakasa's specialty, heshiko, for the first time, and it was so delicious that it made my sake go down a notch 🤣.

After work, I went to a Hokuriku antenna store in Umeda to compare sake from the three Hokuriku prefectures. The first one was a local sake from Uozu, called Hokuyo. It is a light and crisp sake 🍶. It was delicious. 🙆‍♂️

On the same day, an event was held at HOKURIKU+ in KITTE Osaka, where three premium sakes made from Sakahomare from Fukui were served. I was lucky enough to be out that day and saw the poster. My wife had Bon and I had Ippongi. When we asked the staff to serve us Ippongi, they complimented us on how well they knew it, and we were pleasantly surprised (laugh). Sorry, I only remember that the Bon was a little sweeter and both were delicious. But considering the price difference, I think I am happy enough with Ippongi. The Kinmusyo sake is 3,245 yen without the box, the Regalo with the box is 3,960 yen, and the Brahma is 5,500 yen. The sake from Fukui that got my husband and I into the sake swamp is still delicious. Thank you very much for the sake!

Toyama Nigori Sake Fair at KITTE? I had a drink at the Toyama Nigori Sake Fair at KITTE. It's sweet, but in a good way. I guess it was made by Nosaku because they said it was made in Takaoka.

Toyama Nigori Sake Fair at KITTE? I had a drink at the Toyama Nigori Sake Fair at KITTE. The sake I was looking for was not on the server, so I decided to drink it at the bar counter! Not Tochigi, but Toyama's Wakakoma! I've seen it at Tangen Shoten in Suma, but this is my first time to drink it! It's a dry sake with a slight effervescence. I feel like I've had a similar taste somewhere before, but I can't remember where 🤔. Maybe it's the type that's hard to drink at home😅.

Slightly sparkling, sweet and delicious! It doesn't have any alsobe feeling. But I wonder if this lightness is only possible with alsodé 🤔.

I drank Junmai Ginjo Aizan from Tateyama before, but this is Special Junmai. There is also a Daiginjo. I guess they use Aizan a lot. It's not sweet, but it's somewhat fruity and has a nice aroma. The aftertaste is a little spicy. Personally, I preferred the Junmai Ginjo, which is sweeter.

It is the same "Hyakumangoku No Shiro" as Manzairaku. The rice is polished to a 48% ratio, but the flavor is robust and powerful. The latter half is quite sweet and delicious. It is the same price as Manzairaku, but this one is more satisfying.

Various Hokuriku sake tasting at KITTE 🍶. I was going to buy Manzairaku, but the price was too high, so I tasted it. It does have a pineapple-like aroma, but it's basically spicy and maybe too refreshing. I'm glad I didn't buy it😅. I probably would have regretted it if I had 💦.

Sake made with cherry blossom yeast. I bought it because I like flower yeast. It is refreshing and has a trace of sweetness. A little floral, probably because of the floral yeast. I thought it needed a little more umami. When I tasted another product at an antenna store before, I felt Fuku Chitose was a bit lacking, so maybe it's not a good match?

I have been wanting to drink Takeba since before the earthquake, and finally bought it at an antenna store. It's an interesting sake, with a fresh and robust sweetness and acidity, while also having a strong Noto sake-like flavor. I was surprised that it was quite juicy and sweet. It also has a fruity taste.

Tasted and purchased this one as well. Sweet and tasty without feeling high alcohol content. And a trace of nuttiness. I can't drink a lot of it since it's 20 degrees, but I've never tasted a regular sake with such a good taste 💦. A little like Morinori's Kamisen Unfiltered Nama Sake. This brewery has been making only Kaisen and Kamisen for many years and has been slow to release Junmai.

Hello bouken! Kansai is the most popular sake in my hometown 😁. As you said, we've recently started to offer a new series of ginjo sake called "Gekizaka" and "Katakata" brewed with pesticide-free rice, so if you're interested, please feel free to check them out ✨.

Tasted and purchased at KITTE I drank Kagatsuru at the brewery festival last year, but this is my first time drinking it at home. Slightly effervescent and fresh sake. Aroma is a bit like alcohol disinfectant😅. The moment you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness. Sake that gives the impression of pushing through with freshness in a good sense. Is the acidity impressive?

I often see Phantom Taki, but this is my first time drinking it at home. It was fresh and refreshing, yet deliciously fruity. I imagined it to be lighter than I expected, but it was delicious with a stronger umami than I expected. It's like a dry apple. It's a bit spicy when you drink it again.

When I went to an antenna store, there was a corner with only 3㌥ sake. I went to an antenna shop and found a corner with only 3㌥ unpasteurized sake. I chose the San Shoraku sake that I had wanted to try for a long time 😁. I have an image of San Shoraku as a Yamahai sake, but this one seems different 🤔. It doesn't say, but according to the website of the liquor store that sells it, it seems to use No. 7 yeast. It is slightly effervescent with impressive acidity and strong umami. It tastes just like I imagined, but I was surprised that it has a gaseous taste 😳. As the days go by, the sweetness diminishes and the acidity becomes stronger.
