This sake is called "Shichihon-yari Junmai Tamakae" from Tomita Shuzo.

Tomita Shuzo is a sake brewery with a long history, founded around 1534 and located at the northern end of Lake Biwa. The brand name "Shichihon-yari" comes from the seven young warriors who played an active role in the Battle of Dodogatake.
This sake is one of the most popular brands, ranking high in the ranking of Shiga Prefecture's sake.
A hot and humid day 🍺 with 🍻.
After 🍺, we had Nanamoto-yari Kinohan!
It has a modern taste with a modest sweetness but a strong umami, and a strong acidity.
It finishes dry and smooth 😋.
The taste is rich, but the acidity and dryness make it a delicious sake that you will never get tired of drinking 🍶.
Tonight's accompaniment... "Nanbonjari" summer sake 🍶.
The image of Shichibonsenryari is dry and classic, but this is a summer sake, so you may discover something new 💡😊.
I immediately opened the bottle and smelled...
It's as dry as I imagined. And the taste... like the aroma, it's dry and a little dry. ⁉️ I didn't feel the acidity of summer sake so much.
I don't think it has the summer sake feel that I'm looking for 😅Well, it's a good sake, so I'm OK with it... 😍
Hello Mr. Baum 😃
I'm a fan of Shichihonjari! I haven't had too many 😅I like this brand 😋If it's more of a dry summer sake, it might be our cup of tea 🤗It's on our list!
The sweetness and acidity of the rice on the palate and the slight bitterness in the aftertaste make it a very tasty sake that is tight without being soggy.
Good evening, Sake Niwaka-san: ⭐️
I was wondering if Shiga sake is not to my taste when I tasted it at an event (I was told that Shiga sake generally tastes like this), but this one looks delicious 😋.
By the way, my favorite is Banshu Issen.
Good evening.
Thank you for your comment.
I'm sorry if the taste is different from your own. (I didn't like the other ones either)
Banshu Issen's Aizan is to die for.
My guess is Mimuro Sugi!
Sake Niwaka-san I see.
I knew Shiga sake is unique 🤔.
Mimorosugi is also delicious 😋.
I was shocked at the taste of Bodai Hashiro of Mimorosugi when I was a beginner sake drinker 🫢.
I missed buying summer sake 😭
Kachikachiyama-san I, too, have a strong image of Shiga Prefecture's sake as being unique.
When I first started drinking, I drank both dry and umami versions of Bodhi Hashiroshi from Sanmorosugi, and it fried my brain.
It's popularity is terrible these days😅.
Good luck with the next limited edition sake 💪.

Junmai Tamakae is a standard sake of Shichihonjari.
I thought it would be better to drink it at room temperature, so I sipped it chibiri chibiri while sitting idly on the terrace.
I was drinking it with potato chips, but it was a sake with a deep pocket to accept them.
We opened today's drink 💁.
It is a Shichibonspare Low Polishing Junmai 80% Polishing Hi-ire from Shiga Prefecture.
The top aroma is mild, and the mouthfeel is clean and smooth. The rice flavor is very rich, and the acidity is nice and sharp.
It is a perfect food sake that can be served with a wide variety of dishes.
Next time, I'd like to try it warmed up and savor it carefully.
I found Hasegawa-ya near Niigata Station, and since they had Kinokan, I ended up buying something other than Niigata sake. I prefer the deep flavor of the raw sake, but the fire-aged version is also delicious, with a strong aroma of the wooden vat.
