Polishing ratio 80
Cold sake has a mildly round aftertaste
Hot sake has a mellower aftertaste.
The flavor of rice is strong. But it is not like a sake made from the traditional sake yeast.
No cloying taste even with low milling
Fullness of clear color is moderate
Sourness is enhanced
Easy to drink with a meal.
It's a perfect match for 🍢 complete meal!
Delicious!
My favorite *⒋0/5
Shichibonjari Junmai Daiginjo Watabune
The aroma has a faint iso and yogurt smell 🍌🍦.
The taste has the same yogurt-like milkiness as the aroma, with just a hint of sweetness and a strong acidity. (There may also be a slight caramelized kogei taste!).
The aftertaste is quite sharp and clean! 😁.
Ichioshi-shi from the liquor store! I haven't had Watanosen use sake in a long time! I've not had it in a long time 🥰.

It is lightly cloudy with a sense of rice! Fresh and delicious!
The fruity taste of Yamadanishiki is delicious.
It is like a good acidity.
One of my favorite liquor stores has started a sake and shochu lottery for December. The condition for the lottery is to buy a bottle of something to apply, so I was looking around the store when I saw the word "Watafune". This was the third sake made with Watafune, a classic type with a strong pineapple aroma and a good amount of spiciness, although I could taste some bitterness, probably due to the 77% low-pasteurization. It goes well with shiitake mushroom tempura. 😊In case you are wondering, the result of the lottery will be in a month. It is an attractive liquor store where you can buy it at a fixed price because of the point system and lottery.
Drinking famous sake! Shichibonjari from Shiga
This brewery mainly uses Shiga-grown Tamaei. It has a very robust taste.
Clear and medium! Almost no aroma.
It has a strong dashi-like umami and a light sweetness! It has a traditional type of acidity, but it's very clean and easy to drink!
It is also good lukewarm! It has a strong umami flavor to begin with, so it tastes great at a higher temperature while remaining clear! It tastes great lukewarm!
It tastes great lukewarm, but it tastes even better warmed up! I like heated sake like 🍠, but this sweet and sour one is also good!
This one was easy to drink, so I'd like to try it as a standard sake when I want something stronger!
Ninth post from the San Francisco Bay Area. San Francisco is also showing signs of fall. Melon melon and watermelon taste like the end of summer. The aftertaste is crisp. A glass of local jidori chicken dumplings with vinegar at my favorite yakitori restaurant in Berkeley (a smoke). They go well together.
Best Yakitori Izakaya in US

It is not sweet and, as the label suggests, is perfect as a food wine. The kind of thing you'll find yourself enjoying.
I'd like to think it's a lie,
We both finished it in one night (2 hours), which is a record for this brand.
It was a record-breaking bottle.
Maybe the fact that it is not high in alcohol content is a reason why it is so good.
Purchased at a sake brewery in Kinomoto during a trip to Lake Oku-Biwako
Nagahama and Asai in Shiga are full of delicious food
but the pairing was Kakkyu Hatcho Miso Oden!
Delicious 🤤.
