I'm curious about the Japanese pear label! I thought I bought it, but upon closer inspection, it was just orange? LOL! However, it has a strong acidity like Japanese pear, and I think it is probably made according to the concept. It also has a slightly lactic acid-like nuance. Well, even though sake with acidity is popular, this type of acidity is a bit unique. It's not bad, but it might be a little tiring.

NEW ENGI🍂 drank in prep for the Harvest Festival. The hard flavor like apple core is still there. It is more modern than before, but the concept of a food wine is still the same.

I was able to safely buy a bottle of light nigori green label yesterday, so I opened a bottle of stock. The new glass is also nice. I was worried that it might be a little bitter because it was produced in January and made with Yamae Nishiki. I was worried that it might be a little bitter, but it was juicy, fruity, and full of flavor with a hint of gas. The body and flavors are thick and this is what I call "aji-nori". Indeed, it was stored at home at -2°C in ice-cold storage, so it was like "hiyaoroshi" of Shinshu Kamerei. I'll have to stock up on this next year...lol

The one I bought by mistake, thinking it was CEL24... However, it is indeed Kaygetsu. It was a fruity and gorgeous nigori, and I didn't get tired of it.

Bought it on the recommendation of the liquor store owner. And to my surprise, I liked it. I think it's a hiyaoroshi, but I think it tastes better when it's cold, with a slight gassy feeling and pear-like acidity. This nuance is similar to the Planet No. 9 I had a while ago. I thought it was Kumamoto yeast. I've been avoiding it basically just because it's hiyaoroshi, so I wouldn't have come across it without your recommendation. Thanks again🙏.

Type-A was good, but I really prefer type-B! The sweet-sourness of Japanese citrus from the mild aroma, the subdued sweetness of Japanese pear and apple. Too good for this season... This is the one I'll buy a few more bottles of tomorrow!

Maybe Kumamoto yeast is new to you? I prefer this calmer nuance all the time I drink it. I didn't realize I liked this so much that I liked the sake I bought so much...

A good unpasteurized sake that can be drunk slowly even after some time has passed. It is typical of Noto.

Stable Sairai. I guess the sourness becomes bitter after some time.

I really love Tsukiyoshi's "sky". Juicy even when fire-roasted. I prefer it after a few days as the fruit has more depth 🥭.

Low-alcohol sake made with Hokkaido Ginpu. Wine yeast fruitiness, pleasant bubbles, and firm acidity. This is so delicious...

Yamada Nishiki from Yamazan. It is still juicy, but the bitterness is quite strong after a while. This bitterness makes it drinkable all the time.

I have been away from Amami for a long time, but I bought a bottle of this summer sake-like product. It has a good balance of sharpness and sweetness, which is typical of hi-ire sake. It is a stable sake even after a week and I rather like it.

The Tokkami I had before was delicious, but the Tokubetsu Junmai may be even better! Muscat and Japanese pear flavors to a slight gassy finish. There is a banana-like sweetness at the end, but the bitterness is also present and not sticky. I didn't know Suehiro Shuzo brews such good sake...I wish I could go there too!

Hmmm, my favorite brand in Fukushima has always been Masamune, but I think that may change.

Hi oosuka 😃 Oooh! Special Junmai is better than Tokkami 😋 We were right to drink from Special Junmai: ‼️ Everyone has their own tastes though 😄I'm sure they are both delicious!

Thanks again, Jay & Nobby! Genzai, it's really nice, isn't it? Personally, I prefer Kuraku Junmai to Junmai Ginjo, and maybe I shouldn't be fooled by the specs!
