14/28 Hachikaisan Second Fermentation in Bottle White Koji Awa.
It has a rich citric acidity from the white malted rice, a fine bubble texture with a low gassiness, and is useful as an aperitif.

A miracle bottle of freshly pressed bottled sake brewed in Brooklyn was brought in by manual transport, and the freshness of the sake was not compromised and tasted as fresh as the local tapping. It is a fresh and juicy sake!

9/28 UGO HESPERIA
The Aihara Sake Brewery, which brews our favorite Amego Tsuki, is pursuing the future of sake tasting with a more liberal sensibility in the UGO series.

May 28 Shin Tsuchida Princess Sally.
Not sake rice, not japonica rice, but long-grain indica rice, which accounts for 90% of the world's rice, is used in this one, which is full of romance and has the potential to expand the future of sake brewing in the world.
Compared to the regular Shin Tsuchida, it has a slightly lighter and less umami flavor. We would definitely like to taste it as an accompaniment to curry!

4/28 Tsuchida 99.
Koji ratio 99%, still a punchy acidity when served at room temperature. It is an exquisite marriage with the strong flavor of beef stew!

3/28 Yoshida Kurau Hyakumangoku No Shiro Kijoshu.
Next up was the Hyakumangoku No Shiro kijoshu brew. The taste is fresh, clear, and stable!
This kijoshu has a lower alcohol content than the regular Hyakumangoku No Shiro, which originally had a lower alcohol content of 13 degrees, but now has an even lower alcohol content of 12 degrees. It has a mellow and sweet taste with the freshness of Hyakumangoku No Shiro, and it is outstandingly delicious!

1/28 Urasato Junmai Ginjo Namahoshi.
The first glass. Unlike the recently popular sake with strong acidity, this sake is a beautiful sake with a good balance of sweetness and umami!
Good evening, YSTJ 😊.
I enjoyed reading your review of Young Dawn 🙌 thanks ✨.
Urasato (Kiritsukuba) seems to have a fullness of flavor with its parents and children, a brand I want to taste while I'm still alive 😋.
I envy you 😆.
Good evening, Chidori-san😄.
This is the first time I have tasted Urasato, and I am so glad to know that there is such a behind-the-scenes story. We hope you will have a chance to taste it!
Kijo sake here, too.
I wonder if it's still in vogue.
This sweetness like ice wine
It's not too much like sake, isn't it?
This was also a delicious kijoshu.
Very light alcohol with 5% alcohol by volume
Surprised that Gekkeikan is doing this
Sake brewed by researchers in white coats
I heard that this sake is only available by mail order.
Don't underestimate it!
It is very easy to drink!
Brewed with indica rice
It is said to be a sake that goes well with curry
This one also has a Tsuchida taste
Sweet!
Even though it is sweet...
It has various sweetness and light sweetness.
If you want to say it's sweet enough to go with curry
It's like the sweetness of fukujinzuke (pickles).
This is already sake!
What is Yamahai?
I'm amazed!
The American Touji is a master!
The label says that the sake is made with a traditional Norwegian yeast called "Gjærkrans", which is a Norwegian traditional Rhys type yeast.
I hear that they are going to cooperate with Hakkai Sake Brewery and start brewing in earnest from now on.
Just because it's called "standard" doesn't mean it's not good.
Stable taste
Clear, light and soft sake
Low-alcohol Hiyori is also good, but
but if you want to drink it for the first time, this is the one you should try.
I am looking forward to the future of this sake brewery!
asafetida (Ferula assafoetida)
I don't even remember if I drank it anywhere.
I savored it carefully this time.
The deliciousness spreads with a sizzling taste
Very clear and easy to drink
