Sour and quite refreshing entrance.
Pineapple melon-like.
One fire but fruity flavor that remains.
Beautiful juiciness.
After a bit, it's tangy and spicy, and that's good again.
I like it.
4/5 stars for my favorite.

Taste 75
Color Clear and colorless
Aroma: A clean rice aroma typical of nama-shu.
Taste: The mouthfeel is too refreshing and not as satisfying as the aroma. Sourness appears in the aftertaste.
Overall impression: Goes well with fried or oily food.
Getsu-chu-ten Junmai Namaishu Summer Sake
15-16% 70% Sanuki Yomai 1800ml 3110 yen
This is a bottle of Nishino Kinryo's Gasshuten. I really like this sake.
The acidity is juicy with a cucumbery feel. It has a deep taste.
It has a tangy and spicy flavor, so it is not just a sweet sake. It is a summer sake, so maybe they are trying to make it dry.
Sanuki Yomai's sake has hit all the right notes so far. They must be improving Kagawa's sake.

Today's Sake from the Land of Sanuki!
From Sanuki Claudi, after a long time...
It's sweet, but a little medicinal?
It has a nice taste on the palate, but...?
Maybe a little spicy. ⁉️

Getsu-chu-ten Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu
This brewery is located in Kotohira-cho, Kagawa Prefecture.
The sake rice is "Sanuki Yomai" polished to 58%.
It has a fresh, fruity aroma and beautiful acidity,
A mellow and crisp sake for a perfect meal.

One fire but fruity.
The flavor is calm and muscat-like.
The mouthfeel is smooth, perhaps due to the effect of the fire-refining process,
The flavor is thick and juicy, as is typical of the original sake.
The refreshing acidity gives a sense of tightness.
Delicious. I like it.
Goes well with the fat of the sashimi tsumeburi.
The seared tuna bowl is a new product and will become a regular item at Uozuka in the future.

How is everyone doing on this three-day weekend, when the mornings and evenings are chilly but the days are pleasant?
I was working throughout this holiday weekend, but on the evening of the 8th, I had some free time, so I joined the "Sake no Wa Mahjong Club" and enjoyed a cup of sake.
Getsu-chu-ten" by Nishino Kinryo Shuzo, famous for its "Kinryo" brand of sake.
I drank "Kinryo" at a sake brewery when I visited Konpira in Kagawa before starting the sake brewery, but this was my first visit to Kagawa 😁.
Again, we drank it with a thin boar cup and a thick glass cup.
[The thin sipped cup.]
The aroma of full rice, the sweetness hidden behind the plump flavor in the mouth, and the sharp and refreshing aftertaste.
[Masu glass cup.]
The thick umami and acidity are followed by a refreshing aftertaste, with a slight bitterness lingering on the tip of the tongue.
As the temperature rises, the sweetness increases and the apple-like sweetness, umami and sourness, and the aftertaste of custard-like sweetness spreads softly.
Personally, I prefer it closer to room temperature 😆.
Kue Sashimi and Seared Tachio fish
Mahjong lost in the end😅.
I had a chance to go up to the top of the table, but I couldn't pull it off 💦.
Still, it was fun, so I don't need to say anything about it.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀!
Oh! Mahjong is good for the family 🀄.
It's pretty in-depth if you think of it as a pure board game, and it's a good mental exercise 😁.
It's great that you can even go as far as waiting for a single four-way tie 😆.
Next is Kinryo in Kagawa.
The first aroma is slightly sweet and sour.
In the mouth, there was a moderate acidity, sweetness, and umami of rice.
It was a very easy-drinking sake.
It was delicious.
