Purchased at Niigata antenna shop in Omotesando after tasting it (I always try to buy when tasting in a store as I know how awful that job is). Had on Nihonshu no Hi. Well made and balanced — even my wife liked it! And she’s definitely a “pure heart”. Good with food.

100% Gohyakumangoku, 60% polished rice
ALC 15-16 degrees
When you put your nose close to the glass, a faint ginjo aroma wafts out, and in the mouth it has a fruity flavor like muscat, with a slightly sweet taste and a clean, crisp aftertaste.

Junmai Ginjo from Niigata. The label jacket has a strong impact. Delicious.

This "red sake" was given to me by a person in Niigata.
It is made from "Murasaki Kuromai," an ancient rice produced in Joetsu, and this color is said to be due to the natural anthocyanin-based purple-black pigment contained in Murasaki Kuromai.
Anthocyanin is a type of polyphenol that is said to enhance eyesight and strengthen liver function. It is the most powerful way to drink alcohol and strengthen liver function.
As it looks, it has a subtle sourness and sweetness, and seems to be good to drink lightly on the rocks.
I think it is nice to have a drink that can be drunk like a cocktail.

Regular sake, quality hamper 💦😵💦.
I think it was low white 80.
The sake brewer's care and attention to detail in the making of this sake is evident even in the standard sake.
Refreshing and dry.
It's so refreshing and dry, it's easy to enjoy. It's so sharp and clean.
Add some salmon and mackerel (🤤)

Purchased at an antenna store "Niigata wo kome" in Umeda, Tokyo, at a time.
My cat has a crocheted tail too...
I liked the label too much to drink it and kept it, but I opened it because I didn't want the taste to change.
The aroma and attack is weak, the richness comes later.
Delicious 🐈.

パピスケ
Transparent, slightly dark purple-pink. Viscosity is slightly strong (alc 15-16).
Characterized by a sweet aroma.
Slightly acidic first impression. The sweetness is not as strong as the sake's sake level of -16, and the umami flavor spreads from the mid-palate, creating a rich flavor.

This is the third time for Myokayama.
Junmai Ginjo, so it has no bitterness and a light fruity taste.
I paired it with fried oysters on this day.
Finally, we are on the verge of winning the summer Koshien!
We definitely want them to win tomorrow!
Let's make up for what we owed in the spring!
Then we'll have another celebration toast!
At Fukurokuju

Myokozan special junmai Myokozan, all the articles on two-stage yeast brewing were confirmed, but no junmai ginjo could be found.

We were allowed to visit a sake brewery. We were allowed to drink while talking with the toji, and it was a fun field trip for adults ^ ^.

Unfamiliar label
Where is this sake from?
It was from Niigata.
I was a little curious, so I compared the two.
Firm and dry.
It goes down smoothly 🙆It's good for a mid-meal drink.
extensive knowledge
The first time to try 90% low-polished sake. The spiciness of the sake with a sake degree of +7 and the deliciousness of the low-polished junmai sake create a perfect harmony.

Myokozan has an image of having a classic axis, but this one has a modern, light sweet/acid axis at first, and after a few days, it becomes a classic axis just as it is supposed to be.
The bitterness is low, but the sharpness is good, probably due to the alcohol content, and the lingering taste is slightly sweet and umami.
The sake highball at 1:1 tastes like a sake shochu highball without the peculiarities of the sake.
If you chill it in the freezer until it is almost frozen, the sweetness and umami taste is reduced and it becomes something with a strong alcohol taste and a refreshing sake flavor, which I don't like.
If you warm it up to lukewarm, the alcohol attack is stronger, and I don't like that either.
This is the first brand that I have found that I like best with a sake highball, which is interesting!
