I think this is the first local sake I've had, maybe because I've kept the 2 year old sake refrigerated, but it also seems a little mellow. It's dry, so I'll pair it with some side dishes 😊.
Akita yeast No.12 was used. It had a fruity mouthfeel.
The explanation says that it has a discreet sweetness and refreshing umami that spreads vividly. Was it so?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Although it is a junmai daiginjo, the price at the time was 3,000 yen per square, a good cosmetic value! Clear, light, and highly appreciated!
Akita Tour Ginjo drinking comparison. The third item. Chiyoroku.
From right to left: Dewazuru, Kariho, and Chiyoroku.
Chiyoroku. Compared to the other two, it has a lighter impression and lingering aftertaste. It might be called "refreshing" in a good sense. For me, it is not enough. Maybe it goes well with light dishes.
Sake meter degree +3

Version labels for Akita Shunginjo 2021, in which 31 breweries in Akita Prefecture participated; for 2022, 25 breweries participated, with a uniform design and colored labels each year. When the product goes on sale, it is said to sell out in no time due to reservations. Akita is doing quite well, and we wonder what the design will be for 2023.
Chiyoroku, the label is a deep, subdued green, but the contents are firm and dry with a softly fragrant ginjo aroma.
Of course, it is an easy-drinking Junmai Daiginjo.
Chiyoroku Junmai Daiginjo #17
Rice used: 100% Miso Nishiki, using mainly kura-associated yeast
Rice polishing 50%, Alcohol 16.5
Hamamatsu Sake-no-Kinoshita
Mild aroma with a bit of pear-like fruitiness, sweetness for a sake degree of +3, and a fresh and shwarming acidity. As the temperature rises, the umami increases, and the soda water is good as the umami of the rice is placed on the soda water.
Score ☆☆☆☆
Okuda Sake Brewery, a small brewery known to those in the know.
Okuda Shuzo has been brewing with well water that has been in service since its establishment.
This is a classic nigori sake from such a brewery.
I've been interested in it for a while, but I couldn't get my hands on it😅.
It's 1000 yen for a 4-pack of sake. ❣️
The aroma is not fruity at all.
Aroma of rice with a firm acidity 😆.
The taste is also surprisingly sweet free lol.
Sourness and bitterness are the main taste of this man's sake 💪.
Dry sparkling nigori sake with a pleasant effervescence 🍶.
Super Ultra Adult Calpis Soda 🤣👍
Good morning, T.KISO 😃I didn't realize a four-pack was 1000 yen ‼️ but the bottle has the word "luxury" on it! Akita's sake looks delicious no matter what you drink😍.
Sir - Good evening 😊.
Thank you for your congratulatory comment the other day ❗
I've never seen this brand before, but it has a very austere label 😁 and yet it's active nigori, which is an interesting gap 🎵.
Good evening, enoshima-san😄.
You're welcome. ‼️😆
It's an old sake with an austere label 😁.
According to the old man at the liquor store, this is the best nigori in Akita.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
