Dry and refreshing, with no peculiarities and a good flavor.

寿梨庵
The Yaeguhiki series is a series of earthen, or Daichi, sake limited to the prefecture. The last Kaze was made with Koshi-tanrei from the brewery's home region, and this time also uses 100 Gohyakumangoku, locally grown in Kakizaki.
The aroma is slightly banana-like. When you sip it, it is even more bananas and milky, like a banana shake. It has the same firm acidity as the previous Breeze, and although it is hard to describe, it is very distinctive. The second half has a solid body, and towards the finish it is very Gohyakumangoku-like!
It seems to be fire-aged, but it is very fresh, and this may also be bottle-heated and fire-aged. It is not very sophisticated, but gives the impression of a new Niigata sake. In common with Kaze, it is very refreshing, natural, and airy to drink.
I would definitely like to try the others 😊.

寿梨庵
A recommendation from a Joetsu liquor store that we sometimes visit. It is a limited edition of the Hachiekuubiki series. It is a Junmai Daiginjo spec. of Koshitanrei, the brewer's home.
The standing aroma is faint, but it has more of a rice aroma than a ginjo aroma. The most distinctive feature is the acidity, which is dominant until the latter half of the bottle. Although it appears to be fire-aged, it is very fresh, as if it were bottle-warmed and fired. The body and bitter aftertaste are also strong, but overall the drink is refreshing and airy, as the name suggests.
Three days after opening, the acidity has receded and the sweetness has increased and become more rounded. The banana and melon-like fruitiness is also up and smooth. The breezy drinking experience remains the same 😊.

Opened on November 6, 2021
Purchased at Ponshukan, Echigo Yuzawa
The aroma is not very strong, but it's juicier than other junmai! Mikan🍊 strawberry🍓The aftertaste is long! But the aftertaste is refreshing.
I'm not sure what will happen if I heat this up. It's pretty good❗️.
I'll update with a heated bottle!
Update
Good heated up❗️.
Softer and juicier than the sharpness of chilled 🍊I think a little hotter than lukewarm would be better as the acidity is less noticeable ^ ^.

金猫魔
KUBIKI WAKIMIZU Snow Chamber Aged Junmai Namaishu
Seasonal only June-August
This sake is made from 100% Koshitanrei produced by "Kakizaki wo Eats Association", a group of 8 young farmers in Kakizaki, Joetsu City.
This sake is brewed with Koshitanrei grown in terraced paddy fields where Odeguchi spring water, one of the 100 best waters in Japan, gushes out.
It is a raw sake that has been matured in a snow chamber for several months after being squeezed.
It has a refreshing, clear aroma
The mellow mouthfeel of nama-shu and the gentle sweet and sour taste with fruitiness make it fresh and juicy to drink.
It has a clear, refreshing and elegant flavor that slowly seeps through.
It is easy to drink like water.
Delicious!
And the edamame is delicious today too.

Good evening, Kincatma.
I like the label design and would buy it if I saw it.
I'm drooling when I see what you think of it 🤤 it seems to be a sake that lives up to its name ‾.

Good evening, nanogg! That's a stylish and cute label! The design is based on the image of the mid-mountainous Higashiyokoyama area and the Oogate spring water, and the green of this nama-shu, which comes out before summer, is supposed to be an image of rice paddies!

Good morning, Kinchema!
You mean the terraced rice field and blue sky in the water drops😄.
It becomes more and more interesting to know the meaning of the design. Thank you 😆.

The sourness comes after the sweetness, and the sake taste comes afterwards.
It is very interesting and good.

It has a robust but refreshing taste. Personally, it is my favorite sake. It's only sold in Joetsu, so I buy it when I go there.

A fruity aroma spreads on the palate, while at the same time, a fullness of flavor and gentleness arrive. The spiciness is moderate. Recommended.

だいぶ前にラベル買い。大吟醸の香りで甘めに感じますが、飲み口はあっさり軽めでした。
