Sweet! Squeezed melon? It's so easy to drink! Delicious! Even people who don't like sake can drink it, maybe a little too much for sushi, maybe goes well with cream cheese (Comparison #3)

Kintsuru Taku Junmai-shu
It has a sweet flavor, but not too sweet.
But not too sweet and easy to drink.
You can eat rice with it. Good sake in my opinion.
It's a good combination with the entrée and the food.

Niigata Prefecture. Sado City. Kato Sake Brewery.
Junmai Kazeyawaraka
After visiting several liquor stores in Kyoto, this is the second time in a long time that I bought this sake at a liquor store. I was going to buy it because they had Enayama, but then I saw a pre-purchased sake casually sitting there, so I bought it at the same time. The brewery is famous for its brand name, Kanetsuru.
I had it cold.
The color is clear, almost colorless, with a faint greenish hue.
The nose has a refreshing aroma of white peaches and green apples.
The palate is smooth with a refreshing acidity and a slight fruitiness.
The palate is slightly sweet, with a mild grain-derived acidity that is refreshing, and a short, slightly pungent aftertaste.
The finish is short and slightly pungent. It is fresh and classical with a hint of softness.
Ingredients: Rice (from Sado Island), rice malt (from Sado Island)
Rice polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 15%.

Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi.
I used to be able to buy Kintsuru at a liquor store in Kobe, but they went out of business and I haven't had it for a long time 💦.
I haven't had it for a long time 💦 I see there is a store in Kansai where you can buy it.

On a recent trip to Niigata Higaeri, the liquor store told us that they would be selling "Kinzuru's Active Nigori" as well 😄.
The aroma is very beautiful, like muscat. The aroma is very beautiful, like muscat. When you drink it, it is not sweet, but has a fizzy, umami, and bitter taste with a clean aftertaste. It is dry but has a good amount of umami. I want to drink it all the time. This is the kind of nigori that I like the most 😄 A food sake that goes well with all kinds of meals!

On the last day of our trip to Joetsu, we bought this at Sake-no-Aizawa.
It is my favorite summer sake, Kanehatsu Kazayawaraka.
Kazeyawaraka is characterized by the umami of Gohyakumangoku and softness of flavor.
I was curious about this sake because it seems to have a good reputation for its nama-zake.
The silver package is very cool.
The color of the sake is only slightly tinted.
When you put your nose close to the bottle, you can smell the fresh and crisp aroma typical of nama-shu.
When you drink it, the freshness of the sake bursts forth just like the aroma.
It has the umami of rice and the crisp, bright sharpness typical of Gohyakumangoku.
There is also a hint of gas.
This is delicious and easy to drink!
It may be surprisingly rare to find a Niigata sake that is fresh and full of freshness.
This is a sake I want to check out every year.
But I also want to try the Junmai Hi-ire!

Sado's hometown tax returns,
This year we decided to buy rice directly from the farmers, so the return gift is all about sake. I was happy to find sake that I would not normally buy. This Daiginjo from Kintsuru looks good!
Refreshing, fruity aroma with a hint of pineapple,
It flows smoothly and transparently on the tongue,
The elegant and clear sweetness is accompanied by a soft acidity,
The taste is both light and firm,
It is light and has a firm umami flavor, and it cuts through quickly and gently,
This is delicious!
This is delicious!
I compared it with Sado Kinzan, which my father gave me, and Sado with him.

Today I found this when I was browsing the liquor stores! I had enjoyed it at the Niigata Sake-no-jin before and was looking forward to having it again, but it was a small brewery so it was hard to find.... What a coincidence!
I bought it immediately.
I bought it immediately. Today, I had this one for yudofu! The aroma is like banana or green bamboo. The aroma is reasonable. When drunk cold, it has almost no sweetness, but has some umami and then a nice sharpness 😄As it cools down, the umami, sourness, and bitterness spread. When warmed up, it really starts with the umami and goes right in. It has no alcohol taste and it feels like it's going down your body. You can also feel it go down your throat. A truly delicious sake. Modern sake is good, but this is the kind of sake that soaks up the body. It's really good. I love it!
I heard from the liquor store that there will be a nigorigo as well! I'll definitely drink it 😄
