This sake is made by Onda Sake Brewery in Nagaoka City. In this day and age, the more sake is made, the better the sake is imprinted. One famous sake brewer produces Daigin

Manotsuru is a sake from Sado Island. This time, we found a rare bottle at "Roadside Station Yunotani". It is an unbelievably dry sake with a raw, unpasteurized taste. The specs list reads

It is a premium sake in Japan, but readily available in Niigata Prefecture. This time it is the original sake stored in the snow. The alcohol content is as high as 18.5%.

I bought my first bottle this season at Hachikura in Nagamori, where Hakkai Brewery is located. It has a clean alcoholic aroma and taste that is typical of junmai sake.

It is said to be a limited edition sake for registered stores. Purchased at Kanazawa-ya in Shiozawa. The color is almost transparent, the aroma is mild and not bad, and the taste is tangy and seemingly fizzy.

Purchased at Fressey's Minami-Ohashi store. They said it was limited to 60 bottles, but there were 50 bottles on the shelf. The color is slightly tinted and the aroma is a pleasant slight ginjo.

This time, it is a special junmai that has been aged for two years at the koji shop of Hachikaisan Honten. The aroma is subdued, but has a nice aroma of soft yeast. The color is colored by two years of aging

This May, the "Tokujun" nama-zume is released every year as a summer sake. Now, I had to decide whether to buy this year's freshly brewed or the one-year aged one on the line!

The long-established Niigata brewery, whose style has become old-fashioned and declining, has recently introduced Blue Bottle's Kawafui and Green Bottle's Kawafui to meet modern taste preferences.
