Timeline
しんしんSYI'll close this evening with this.
There was still some purple air left!
Along with the Anastasia Green we started with.
We had a fruity sake and a spring-like easy-drinking sake.
The assistant chef gave us a prototype!
Shrimp chili mixed with cheese!
I love Hokkaido cheese!
Please make this a regular menu item!
Of course, it went great with sake!
Thank you very much!

This is the seventh in the R4BY Murasakiu series. We brew this sake with even more love for its clean taste and crisp aftertaste. しんしんSYSpecial Junmai Drink Comparison
This is Orikarami
Umashuwa, I love it!
It tastes like melon🍈!
We asked for more yaki-sai and paired it with sake!
The Chinese food at Fukurokuju is really good!
They also have a good selection of sake, so I will be back again!
Knowledge
They also have Junmai Daiginjo!
I hope to meet you somewhere! しんしんSYMutsu Hachisen Red Label Special Junmai Unpasteurized Sake
Let's compare them with the special junmai!
The same apple taste as last time!
Easy to drink!
A friend of mine from high school, who is also a sake drinker, drank this the other day and raved about it!
It is a delicious sake after all 🍶!
The Torotaku alone was not enough sushi for me, so I ordered the sea urchin gunkan as an independent dish!
Sake and sushi is a delicious combination!

I've had the Zare-Sugata Special Junmai Sake in the past, and it has the image of a quick cut!
I think it is a graceful sake 🍶.
Tochigi Prefecture, I am still friends with some local friends!
There are many surnames that are unique to my hometown!

etc.
I miss the family name. I want to drink Tochigi sake with everyone then 🍶.
extensive knowledge
Sugata Zare-Sugata Special Junmai-shu is a super dry special junmai-shu made with Yamada-Nishiki. Unlike the mellow, gorgeously sweet taste of regular "Sugata", it has a clean, sweet taste. It also has a sense of transparency and a beautifully clean aftertaste that will keep you sipping.
The third and fourth pictures are of the new barley shochu Ryofu that the manager will be purchasing in the future.
This was a rare shochu with a mint taste! ジェイ&ノビィGood morning, Shinshin SY 😃!
Oh, you were a Tochigi resident for a while! My company has a lot of Akutsu and Fukuda too 😆.
I remember my hometown while drinking Tochigi sake 🍶😌 Love Tochigi 🥰! しんしんSYThank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby. My father was relocated a lot and I worked in many different places relatively speaking, so I drink sake from the places where I was taken care of at that time with care 🍶🍶🍶. Shichisui純米65 FOUR-SEASONS SPRING(フォーシーズンズ スプリング) 生純米生酒 しんしんSYTonight, Nanamizu was what I was going to drink from the moment I saw the cold storage!
Spring-like cherry blossom label🌸🌸🌸
I drank it last year, but I found it again!
Then the manager said we should compare Tochigi sake!
As I mentioned a long time ago, I lived in Mooka City, Tochigi Prefecture for three years from elementary school to junior high school due to my father's job transfer!
During the pioneering period of my current job, I traveled all over Tochigi Prefecture from Shiobara and Nikko in the north to Ashikaga, Sano, and Oyama in the south (on business) because of its geographical advantage.
I digress, I love Nanamizu, Tochigi sake ❤️
Slightly fragrant ginjo aroma that is typical of spring!
It was a delicious sweet and sour sake 🍶.

しんしんSYWe still had some Tatenogawa Honryu Dry Sake from the end of March, so we decided to match it with Shiraoi.
Compared to Shiraoi's fruity and sweet taste, it was a beautiful sake that flowed smoothly and had no cloying taste.
A liquor store we found on our morning walk!
Of course, the store was not open yet, but it seemed that they might have some Winter Moon!
I can buy it without going to Chitose, so let's take a peek again!
They seem to be a member of the Japan Famous Sake Association🍶.
knowledge
The most common notion of dry sake is that of "light" dry sake, but "Honryu Dry" is a junmai daiginjo that is distinctly different from this type of sake. It is a real dry sake with a strong sense of rice flavor that is distinctly different from "light dry sake," which has little umami. It is a sake with a pleasant balance of spiciness and umami at the end of a subdued ginjo aroma and a crisp, refreshing sharpness. Hakurou純米吟醸 夢吟香 槽場直汲生原酒純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過槽しぼり しんしんSYFrom here on, we will compare two kinds of drinks
Shiraoi
If you are a Hokkaido-native, you are Shiraoi.
But this sake is Hakuro!
It's been a long time since I've had Shiraoi!
When you put it in your mouth, the fruity taste spreads!
Yum😋!
I can drink good sake surrounded by good food!
I am so happy!
The chef and the assistant chef gave us various services tonight as well!
Thank you very much!
Please drink, Mr. Toji Yamauchi!
extensive knowledge
If you look up this sake on the internet, you will find the label is orange, and you will not find a white label!
Apparently it's made with rice grown under contract on the Chita Peninsula.
Yume-Ginba is a sake rice that I am not familiar with, but it is delicious!
During Golden Week, we decided to tour around Gifu and Aichi from Centrair!
Let's go to Chita Peninsula too!
I wonder if they have started growing Yume-Ginba? しんしんSY12 bottles of sake brought from Hakodate
There were still 3 bottles left, so let's open them!
Yamauchi Toji Junmai Ginjo
I thought it was Yamauchi Toji, but apparently it is Sannai Toji!
It has a more robust and fruity aroma than Anastasia Green, which I prefer.
I heard that the bigwigs from Onogawa are here tonight!
Apparently there was an event at Marui Imai!
I guess it was a coincidence that I was able to drink this sake!
I support Onogawa of Akita, including Tenka 📣 and will continue to drink 📣.
And I will continue to drink it 🍶.
knowledge
The Yamauchi Touji brand of Onagawa is the only one in Akita Prefecture that can be commercialized under the Yamauchi Touji trademark, which was granted permission to use the trademark on the condition that rice and water from Yamauchi Village, Yokote City, Akita Prefecture, the hometown of the Yamauchi Touji, are used. During the brewing season, the brewer spends an hour every morning to fetch 1,000 liters of water from Yamauchi Village, and this sharp, dry Junmai sake is made from 100% Yamauchi-produced Menkona. It is an Akita Prefecture-only product that can be drunk while experiencing the fantasy of deep snowy Akita.

I will have the first Anastasia Green of the season right away!
It's refreshing and goes down smoothly.
The aroma was a little alcoholic, but it didn't bother me as I drank it.
The temperature is gradually rising in Sapporo, so we can go for an early morning walk!
Let's take a walk in the morning without drinking too much tonight. 🚶🏻
By the way, I drank Anastasia Green in the spring of 2021 and 2022, and it was 13 degrees alcohol, but this season it is 15 degrees.
So it's not the same every year 🍶.

Anastasia Green" is the name of a European female chrysanthemum variety named after "Anastasia", which means "resurrected woman" in Greek, and is as spectacular as fireworks. Kakurei特別純米 無濾過生原酒おりがらみ 山田錦55%特別純米原酒生酒無濾過おりがらみ しんしんSYThe last one was also related to a corkscrew.
There was only enough for one boar cup, so we took it all!
It was sweeter than "Kaiun" and had a lot of ori!
I like to drink alone, but sometimes I join a small group like this.
I don't reject those who come, and I don't chase those who go.
Next month, he will hold a birthday party in Morioka, and I am looking forward to it.
As I get older, I want to study more and more, and experience the culture of various places.
I am also looking forward to meeting new sake!

This sake is a freshly pressed, unfiltered, bottled product of our regular "Kaiun Special Junmai Sake" (orange wrapper sake).
At first, one tank of this sake was sold unfiltered and unpasteurized as an experiment.
It was very popular and sold out immediately. The following year, four tanks were shipped, but even so, the product was so popular that it sold out during the winter.
The next year, they started shipping four tanks of this popular product, but even so, it sold out during the winter.
It has a unique carbonation gas stimulating texture on the tongue, which is unique to unfiltered raw sake. It is a fresh and energetic sake.

しんしんSYWhen I see Genmai at Fukurokuju, I definitely drink it!
I've had Kinmon-nishiki several times, and tonight it's a strange and delicious sake that spreads in the mouth.
I love it!
I listen to the various problems and complaints of the members around me, and I nourish my energy to do it all again next season.
I'm really glad that we are in an environment where we can have this kind of drinking party!
By the way, the restaurant was very busy tonight!
The manager was running around so much that we hardly had a chance to talk to him.
I'm going to go get something out of the cold storage!
extensive knowledge
Kinmon-nishiki is a sake rice born in Nagano Prefecture but cultivated only in Kijimadaira Village in the northern part of Nagano Prefecture, where its cultivation has declined due to the difficulty of growing. This "complexity" is a characteristic common to the finest sake, and when you take a sip of the sake, the complexity spreads quickly in your mouth, and in the next moment, it is tightly integrated and tightens up, inviting the next sake.
Kinmon-Nishiki 55% polished
Alcohol 16%. しんしんSYCome on, let's move on.
I brought a bottle with a black label and a bottle with a dark green label.
I've had a bottle of Honryu Dry Taste since I first encountered it here six months ago.
The mouthfeel is light because it has been beautifully polished.
It goes in smoothly without any bitterness.
First time to fly from Kushiro to Shin-Chitose by ANA!
We found a government plane.
I wonder if it was used by Prime Minister K when he went to Ukraine last time. We sometimes see such planes at New Chitose Airport.
I digressed, but Tatenokawa is one of my favorite brands because it tastes so good!
Knowledge
The most common notion of "dry" is "light" dry, but "Honryu Dry" is a Junmai Daiginjo that is distinctly different from the "light" dry. It is a real "real" type of dry sake with a strong sense of rice flavor that is distinctly different from "light dry sake" with little umami. It is a sake with a pleasant balance of spiciness and umami at the end of a subdued ginjo aroma and a crisp, refreshing sharpness.

Yes, it was.
It was a Kyoto sake like Tasake!
I didn't take a picture of the food at Fukurokuju because I had the usual course tonight!
So I had the shrimp tempura oyster soba noodles I had the day before!
It had been a while since I had it, but it was so hot! I wanted to combine soba with sake, but I was in the car, so I took a rest day!

I'll never refuse an invitation!
I'll make a reservation at the usual restaurant, Fukurokuju.
It seems to be crowded, and the tables are full.
We've secured a table for four at the counter, though they're side by side.
We found a lot of good sake tonight, too!
The manager was in a rush, so I took the liberty of taking out two bottles at a time from the cold storage!
Eririn-san found a bottle of purple air that she recommended!
Sake rice I've never had before, and pink letters on the bottle!
Mmmm, it's delicious!
I can see why it's so popular!
Since we had gone all out at Iesan on Monday
So the day before, we took a rest day in Kushiro.

When I see purple air, I want to drink it. I found a green-lettered purple air at the last Iesan. It was still unopened, so I had to leave it... RyokoTHE BASE 純米吟醸 辛口純米吟醸 しんしんSYThe last one is Hishiko, recommended by the manager.
This pitch black label is a first for me!
It has a fruity taste for a dry sake!
He said there are still three bottles of sake I brought in.
Please let them sit a little longer!
I will take my friends here in May!
Sorry for my selfishness!
I couldn't finish the fried rice, so I brought some as a souvenir!
I had it in the morning, and I had a nice bowl of rice with a quick stir-fry!
I didn't have a hangover!
extensive knowledge
This is the first junmai ginjo sake in the Hishiko series to be made entirely from Niigata rice, polished to 55%.
We aimed to achieve both a dry taste and a mellow aroma.
It has a rounded standing aroma like apples and ripe bananas, and in the mouth it has a refreshing berry-like flavor with a soft, koji-derived thickness.
The aftertaste is dry and robust.
Although it is made from Niigata rice, you will enjoy the unique flavor of Hishiko, which is distinctly different from "light and dry". しんしんSYI drank quite a bit.
The customers around me left and I was left alone.
The manager recommended that I try a dry sake for the last comparison.
I've had Nanpou before, but I heard it's extremely dry!
The color of the label was just like the color of the fried rice I asked for at the end of the meal!
I knew it was spicy!
But it is also good to finish with something this spicy!
Knowledge
This is a product that challenges the limits of spiciness even more than our popular lineup of super-spicy junmai sake. The jacket is based on the color red, which fits the image of spiciness. This special junmai sake made entirely from Yamada-Nishiki has been made extremely dry. The sake has a refreshing crispness and a pleasant aftertaste that is created by the umami flavor of the rice. しんしんSYThis is another light nigori.
Hurray for light nigori and ogara-gara-mi!
It's the season of new sake, and the light nigori is the best you can get!
extensive knowledge

It is a single shot, light nigori Junmai Ginjo made with Aiyama from Hyogo Prefecture, the only rice outside of the prefecture used by Izumihashi Shuzo, which uses rice produced in Kanagawa Prefecture, including its own plots.
It has a mild ginjo aroma, a refreshing new sake-like mouthfeel, and a thick, smooth, sweet taste that is typical of Aizan.
