Sagaminada Aki-agari, which was purchased at the end of August.
The aroma is mild rice type. I was looking forward to drinking it, but...
Hmm? For some reason, it smells gassy. The taste is good, but it smells gassy... I wonder what this feeling is... Is it just a coincidence that this bottle is like that? Is it that cold sake is bad? Very sad.
From the "Kanagawa 12 Breweries Autumn Thanksgiving Festival 2025", a special junmai from Sagaminada. The taste is robust and stable.
This plum wine was also impressive with its unique savory richness.
Rice polishing ratio 55%, alcohol content 16%.
Sagaminada is characterized by its fruity and sharp taste, but this one is less sweet and more sharp. It is a perfect match with food.

Mild aroma, slightly citrusy. Dry, but slowly sweetens as it sits on the tongue. Bitterness and numbness remain. A soothing taste while drinking. Maybe because the rice is from Nagano Prefecture.
Purchased at a sake brewery.
It is a small brewery run by a family in a large house. The wind chime has a strip of paper written by a child with a high level of awareness.
Since it was my first visit to the brewery, I bought a bottle of sake, which is said to be the most popular.
drinking at home (as opposed to going out)
I brought home from my usual restaurant the other week.
I brought back a bottle from my usual restaurant.
It is a 65% Yamadanishiki Honjozo produced in Midori-ku, Sagamihara City.
It is a dry sake with a nice sharp taste.
It is a dry and sharp sake, and I almost drank too much of it.
I was about to drink too much 😅. I was about to drink too much 😅.
At the usual restaurant
The second cup was Yamadanishiki, which I got three weeks ago.
It turned out to be Oumachi from Sagaminada. 😀 ...
I can't compare the two since the time was open.
It was delicious. 😊
The side dish was prawn asparagus kakiage.
