Taman Jugen's dry ginjo. I bought it at a local liquor store I visited for the first time. I was also able to apply to purchase a bottle of Taman Jushin's Risshun Asa Shibori and was in a good mood.
The aroma is very subdued. It has a sweet, melon-like aroma. The mouthfeel is a bit mild, with a hint of sweetness and umami, but the overwhelmingly dry and astringent taste fills the palate, as befits the name "dry ginjo. I really love it. It is cheap, tasty, and is a sake for everyday use.
The last day of 5 consecutive holidays. I was able to spend the holidays in a relaxed atmosphere by visiting graves and paying homage to the New Year 😌.
I will finish with this retro label that caught my eye!
When I opened the bottle and poured it, there was a classical aroma of old paper, chest of drawers, and brown sugar.
It has a beautiful mouthfeel, but soon after, the full-bodied, acidic flavor spreads out.
The traditional flavor and pettiness are similar to those of ordinary cup sake. It has a stronger punch of umami than cup sake and is perfect for warming up with more depth!
A good balance of alkaloids and umami makes it an affordable evening sake ✨.
The New Year's mood has died down.
This year is going to be a year full of love👍.
I went to a local supermarket with the intention of buying another bottle of Sawanoi, but after some hesitation, I bought this one. It is like a candy that sticks to your tongue, but has a clean aftertaste. But it has a clean aftertaste, which is also addictive.

I visited again after making an appointment to visit the brewery 😆The explanation of the tour of the brewery is a commemorative version of the UNESCO registration 🎊They explain the points that were evaluated in the registration 😆.
(The points that I remember are)
The brewery uses rice as koji in its original form.
The traditional production technique has been inherited by the Touji system.
The parallel double fermentation technique is unique in the world.
Parallel double fermentation, a technique unique in the world, and many more... If you are interested, please visit the brewery 🥳.
So I bought a bottle on the way home 😄.
(No. 4 doesn't fit in the fridge... 😅)
Amber color there 🟨.
Dark sweetness with a touch of stickiness 🤔.
Weak acidity as well, deep taste 🟨🙂↕️
Firm taste 🧐.
Tama Pride's sake brewing policy is "to go well with meals" and the toji's recommendation was fried chicken 🍗, but I didn't have any fried chicken in stock 🤣.
Where to buy】Ishikawa Sake Brewery
Snack] Miso-glazed pork
After visiting a sake brewery there, I had it bottled and purchased at the "December Appreciation Day" weigh-in corner. It has a pear-like aroma with a tangy yeast flavor and a slightly bitter aftertaste. It tastes just like it was freshly pumped.

After visiting the brewery, we had the sake bottled and purchased at the "December Appreciation Day" corner. The brewery uses cedar chips to fill the barrels, which gives the sake a strong cedar aroma and a hint of sweetness, just like you would taste in a square.

This is "Tamanboast Junmai Mucho" from Ishikawa Shuzo, Fussa City, Tokyo, one of the "Three Tokyo Sake Breweries Junmai Sake Set for Comparison" that we received as a gift.
It is a delicious sake with a full aroma and a delicious junmai flavor.
