It is made with glutinous rice and 4-stage brewing. I wanted to try it, so I visited the brewery and bought it. The color is crystal and slightly yellow. The aroma is of iodine and earth. The mouthfeel is soft It has a refreshing sweet taste. After a faint sourness Honey-like aftertaste. On the homepage of the brewery, it says that it has a sweet taste, so I imagined it would have a sweetness that lingers on the palate, but it has an easygoing sweetness.

Lightly muddled Mild floral aroma with a hint of rice. The aroma in the mouth has a citrusy freshness that penetrates the nose. It has a refreshing sweetness and a well-balanced acidity. The umami taste follows afterwards. It disappears quickly. Aroma ★★⭐︎⭐︎ Taste ★★⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎ Sweetness ★★⭐︎⭐︎ Sourness ★★⭐︎⭐︎ Umami ★★⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎ Lingering ★★⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎

I visited Yanagisawa Shuzo today. I bought a bottle of "Katsuragawa" which is only available at the brewery. I was thankful for the polite explanation from the kind owner and his wife(?). Thank you very much. They told us that while dry sake is the mainstream, there are more and more people who want this sweet sake. I wonder if they want healing. I do, lol. The gentle sweetness spreads in your mouth and heals you. But the aftertaste is refreshing. I would like to enjoy it after a meal rather than during a meal.

At first, the ginjo aroma comes through to the nose with a tang. A slight astringency lingers as an aftertaste. It goes well as a midday sake or with a little dry food. Gunma is the best!

The label doesn't say so, but it says the sake content is -12, and even Katsuragawa, which is good at sweet sake, doesn't often have this level... The aroma is dignified and fresh, with a slight green apple-like fruitiness. It is slightly fizzy and has a strong sweetness, but there is also acidity, so it is not overpowering in the slightest. In the second half, you can feel the alcohol, but the aftertaste is sharp and bitter. This swing from sweetness to bitterness is amazing. I was able to reconfirm the interest of Gunma's sake.

At a friend's house, I got this sake, which was recommended by a sake shop. It is called "Kojikomi Ginjo Zukuri. The label says it is Junmai-shu. There is not much information on the specifications, and it says the rice is polished to 55%. Junmai Ginjo? Well, okay. Speaking of Katsuragawa, I have the impression that it is a sweet sake, but this one is not so sweet. It's not raw, but the mouthfeel is fresh like a raw sake, and it's not rough at all. There is a light melon flavor in the second half. There is a light melon like flavor in the latter half and it fades out. If you are expecting Junmai's drinkability, you will be disappointed, but it is very elegant, which is probably the characteristic of this sake.

M2", a collaboration between Machida Sake Brewery and Yanagisawa Sake Brewery It says "Be careful opening the bottle", so be careful. There is no sound when you open it. It has a pleasant, lightly sparkling mouthfeel. A gorgeous lactobacillus-like aroma comes through the nose. But it's sweet! I think it is suitable for the third or fourth drink I think it is suitable for the third or fourth drink in a pub. The cost is good. ★★☆☆☆

桂川　絶滅危惧酒　レッドリスト醸造アルコール　65％　15度 720ml1100円くらい名前でこりゃあ興味をそそられると思い購入。「当蔵独特の四段仕込みで醸す芳醇な酒質」「日本酒度・酸度はあえて公表しない」と裏ラベルに記載。蔵のある粕川町は昔は養蚕が盛んで共働きが多かった。そのため嫁が食事の準備をしている間に夫はアテなしでも晩酌できるように、と味わいのある甘口の酒が好まれたとのことだ。その甘みはもち米を最後に使う珍しい製法で、なおかつ四段仕込みなので甘みが増す。甘みはもちろん昨今の流行りの甘さとは違うもの。ところが時代は辛口ブームが訪れ芳醇ブームが訪れ、この古くからしたしまれてきたこの酒ももうなくなっちゃうかもしれませんよ、、？てな思いもいれて「絶滅危惧酒」というやや皮肉めいた酒が誕生したのだ。実は飲み終わるまでもち米使用に気づかず、なにか甘みはベタッとした田舎っぽい味だなあと良くも悪くもでいたが調べてみればなるほど、コンセプトがしっかりしているなと。桂川のスタンダードも飲んでみたいところだ。評価☆☆☆　　20200430

高橋与商店さんの角打ち3杯目。最後は桂川の亀口（写真右）。亀口というのは、原酒を受け入れる容器のことを蔵人は『亀口』と言うそうで、度数が20前後あります。香りはリンゴとバナナを合わせたようなさっぱり目な甘い香り。口に含むとプチプチ感があり、口いっぱいに酸味を伴った甘味が広がります。後でほんのり苦味で締める感じ。度数が高いこともあり、結構まったりと口に残る。酒単体で楽しむのが良いかも。
