Aomori business trip. Purchased with leftover coupon from a travel support coupon.
It has no habit, but I can feel a little alcohol in the aftertaste. 450 yen.
I stopped by on my weekly booze drive and bought a bottle after seeing it for the first time and it caught my eye.
The illustration of a spring-like yellow flower and the beautiful blue bottle caught my eye, and when I looked at the label on the back, I saw that it was from a sake brewery in Aomori Prefecture, and that it was a Junmai Daiginjo made from 100% Hana-Moi...
I bought it because I love Aomori's Hanasoui, which is made from rice suitable for sake brewing, and which I received at Tasake in Aomori Prefecture.
It was a bit expensive at 2,000 yen for 500 ml, but I opened it right away!
The taste was very clean and refreshing!
The attack of the aroma was tame, but once you take a sip, the elegant sweetness and gorgeous flavor spread quickly, and you could enjoy the clean acidity and minerality.
I was going to drink it in small sips, but I finished it in less than an hour!
Rice polishing ratio: 40% (100% Hwasoi)
Alcohol content: 15 to 16 degrees Celsius
Yesterday we stayed in Aomori
So today we start from Aomori.
I left before 6:00 p.m. because I wanted to return home in the evening.
Not related to alcohol, but I had miso curry milk ramen for the first time.
It was delicious, spicier than it looked, combined with the softness of the milk.
Now, this is Komaizumi.
I bought this at a store in Tsugaru Goshogawara of Tsugaru Railway.
You can smell the ginjo aroma when you open the bottle.
First with the nose... then with the mouth... you can enjoy the deliciousness.
The taste is light and refreshing, with little acidity, giving the impression of a sake that makes the most of its aroma and refreshing sweetness.
It is also a good sake.
The trinity of clear subterranean water from the Takase River in the Hakkoda Mountains, carefully selected sake rice, and Nanbu-style brewers is combined to produce this local sake, which is produced using traditional methods while incorporating the latest technology. 100% sake brewing rice grown by special contract farmers in the Sakuta district of Shichinohe Town, Aomori Prefecture.
The delicious flavor of 100% specially contracted rice. The lightness and richness of this sake are in harmony, making it a perfect match for a wide range of food.

(My impression after drinking it)
Colorless and transparent, not much ginjo aroma.
It is easy to drink with no alcohol smell. It is easy to drink with no alcohol smell, and it goes down your throat without much sweetness or spiciness. It goes well with food as it is not too assertive. It is very easy to drink because it does not smell of alcohol like Yamagata's Koikawa, which we drank at the same time. I once bought a small 300ml bottle at Hirosaki station.
Sake to go with Salmon, at Sushi Restaurant
Full and well-balanced flavor.
Sweetness is not prominent, but moderate, and acidity is only supportive.
The umami is thick and fades away moderately in the aftertaste.
It is a perfect match for salmon.
The thickness of the umami is near, so they make the best use of each other.
The oiliness of the aftertaste is well balanced by the lingering aftertaste.
