This is my first drink.
I bought this Tochigi sake 🍶 on a trip to Nasu.
It is a junmai ginjo, but it has a rich sweetness like a daiginjo.

It feels a little too sweet for me,
I would like to try Junmai sake next time!
Slightly sweet to drink
The taste is crisp and easy to drink.
It is made from Yumesasara, an artificially bred sake rice produced in Tochigi Prefecture.
It has a sense of transparency and comes in easily and cleanly. The aroma is gentle, like freshly cooked rice, with a lingering fruitiness reminiscent of apricot.
The mouthfeel is clean, but the depth of flavor gradually develops. It can be enjoyed at room temperature or lukewarm, but it will take on a different look when warmed to room temperature, becoming fuller and mellower.
It does not have the heaviness or peculiarity that one might expect from a sake made from the traditional sake yeast, but rather a quiet and careful approach. It is a bottle that we would like to let it mature a little more, and we have high expectations for it.
This junmai ginjo is brewed with delicate techniques using 100% Gohyakumangoku grapes grown in the land of Nasu. As the name suggests, the sharpness of the taste is outstanding. The moment it enters the mouth, a clear, dignified dry taste spreads out, without any cloying flavors, and the aftertaste is surprisingly crisp and clean. It is as refreshing as drinking water from a clear mountain stream. This is a bottle as robust as rice and as supple as water. A well-honed gem that resonates with the blessings of Nasu and the pride of its brewer.

The last one is Ona Super Dry Junmai
The Ona I drank before didn't seem dry to me.
I don't think it feels dry to the point of being super dry, though it is dry with a Sake meter value of +10.
It's like it stays in your mouth until you taste it later?
A bit heavy?
Sake lees cream cheese, quite tasty, but the taste is strong, the one that somehow doesn't lose to it👍.
Of course I could go on 🤣(I really want to) but I'll stop here 😝.
