但馬純米無濾過生原酒
此の友酒造Hyogo
21
本部長It is light and dry. I was told it was limited to 1,200 bottles and bought it immediately. I was told that it was made to go well with crab, and it certainly does. The synergistic effect of washing away the tartness of crab makes it possible to drink as much as you want and eat crab. It is quite crisp and clear, so it goes well with a full-bodied food.

Wakaebisu立春朝搾り令和五年
Wakaebisu ShuzoMie

本部長Light on the palate, with just the right amount of acidity, a fruity taste that spreads to the palate, and the unique "shwash" sensation of nama sake. It is perfect in every way! I wonder if this is what 2023 will taste like. I will never have the same taste again from the first pressing, so I want to savor the taste of this year's sake. I wonder what it will taste like next year. Wakabisu Sake Brewery is my hometown sake and my favorite sake. Without a doubt, it is the best sake in all of Japan.

本部長Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake. This bottle was recommended to me by a shopkeeper when I stopped by the brewery. As a lover of dry sake, I thought it might be a little too dry for my taste, but of course it was not. It is called "white grape" and has a characteristic grape flavor in the aftertaste. It is more like "grape sourness" than grape flavor. Anyway, rather than the sweetness of rice, you can feel the fruity flavor, the sweetness of eating grapes and a little bit of sourness, which is what you get when you eat grapes. The illustration on the package is also interesting and different from the usual sake.

本部長Junmai Daiginjo. Despite having the unique aroma of an old sake, the taste is clean and refreshing. There is no unpleasant sake smell at all, only a subtle aroma that lingers in the mouth. If you keep sipping and sipping, it will be gone before you know it. Old sake is expensive, but it is possible to drink it once in a while.

本部長Junmai Ginjo with no filtration and no additives. The sweetness of the taste is not half as sweet as it goes down your throat. Sugar! It's like "sugar". It is one of my favorite fruity sweet sake. It has a gorgeous aroma like green apple, and the cool, fruity taste happens to be written on the bottle.

本部長The mouthfeel is quite refreshing. The moment it is swallowed, the umami flavor spreads in the mouth. It is hard to believe that brewing alcohol is used. The mild sweetness of the rice can be fully enjoyed.

本部長The sweetness of the rice fills your mouth the moment you take a sip. Smooth texture on the tongue. I am so frustrated that I don't have the vocabulary to describe this deliciousness, but I can tell you that this is the first pressing! I hope you can understand if I say, "This is the first pressing! After all, sake from my hometown is the best!

リブロム フレスコ
Fukuoka

本部長I was told that it is officially classified as other miscellaneous sake because it is not licensed as sake. Slightly carbonated. The flavor of rice malt comes through with a thump rather than the flavor of rice. It is more like amazake with alcohol than sake. Of course, it is not as sweet as amazake, but if I had to choose one over the other, which would it be? This is the first time I have tasted it, and it is delicious.

本部長Umami, then acidity. The pleasantness that passes through the nose is stronger than that of other sake. I don't think that is the reason for the name, but it is similar to the aroma of flowers spreading to the nose.

Nabeshima

本部長Harvest moon. Nabeshima is a sake that leaves no aftertaste or clutter, leaving only the umami behind. It hit me right in the middle of my taste buds and is one of the best quality sake I have ever had in my life. Umashii!

本部長This is one of the three types recommended by the owner of Buri Shabu Kiki in Hakata Tenjin, Fukuoka. This one is dry, but leaves a reasonable aftertaste. It goes well with a light and refreshing side dish.

本部長One of the three types of drinks recommended by the owner, ordered at Buri Shabu Kiki, Hakata Tenjin, Fukuoka. Fruity. The sweetness of the rice lingers in the aftertaste. It has a strong presence even without any entrée.

本部長While visiting Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, I happened to be at a Fukuoka Prefecture sake event and tasted and purchased a bottle. It was quite refreshingly dry and quickly disappeared without leaving any aftertaste. It is easy to imagine that it does not interfere with the entrée, but it also has enough potential to be drunk on its own. A must for dry wine lovers.

本部長The mouthfeel is sweet from the rice, but with a firm acidity. However, the moment the sake is swallowed, the acidity is quickly dissipated, and nothing remains afterward. It is a sake with a clean aftertaste and little miscellaneous flavors.

本部長What comes at the moment of drinking is fruity and sweetness of rice. There is a slight sourness after drinking, but it is not at the level of being peculiar. It is well-balanced, and it is understandable that it is popular with everyone. Delicious!

本部長Live yeast! The sizzling, slightly carbonated taste makes for a refreshing drink. The alcohol content is 15 degrees, not so different from that of regular sake, making it easy to drink. The taste is sweet, with the sweetness of rice coming through with gusto. It is recommended for those who like sweet sake, but Banshu Issen Shichiho Junmai Starch Tangle is only available at sake breweries in Shiso City, Hyogo Prefecture. If you ever get a chance to visit Shiso City in Hyogo Prefecture, please do!

寶娘蔵出しにごり酒
大澤本家酒造Hyogo

本部長It has a high alcohol content of 19 degrees, which is high for sake. I met it at the Nishinomiya Sake Gura Renaissance after a three-year absence, fell in love with it at first sight, and bought it immediately. It still has the mildness and sweetness of rice characteristic of nigori. Among nigori, there are rough and fine nigori, but this one is quite fine. I mistook it for drinking yogurt and drank it so fast that I had no memory of last night.
