As we head into the busy year-end season, it is important to refresh ourselves in the intervals between events, so tonight we had another glass of wine. I opened a bottle of "Kitayuki Junmai Ginjo" from Sado Island, Niigata, which I was told about at an izakaya I often visit! It has a sweet aroma from the moment it is poured, and when you take it into your mouth, the sweet and umami flavors quickly run out, leaving you with a gentle, smooth, and clear image of the after-flavor! Whether it is the water or the brewing method, I am addicted to this clear aftertaste! With only one month left in this year, I'm getting drunk and thinking that it's time to narrow down the bottle of 2022 that I will choose 🍶.

If I sleep for a day today, it will be Friday... so I opened the bottle in good spirits. The aroma is fruity with no hint of alcohol. It has a softness that is typical of nama-shu. When you take a sip.... Hmm, it's sweet. It has a solid taste that doesn't betray your expectations. It's a taste I like. However, there is an alcohol feeling on the throat. It's not too much to worry about. I'd like to try the other Hokusetsu.

Kitayuki after a long time. I had the impression that it was refreshing, but this has a juicy flavor that is typical of nama-gara sake and is delicious.

Purchased at Yoshiike in Okachimachi Easy to drink! Well balanced. It's just right for a mid-meal drink! I will buy it again when I drop by Yoshi-ike!

The final stop of the Nemuro section was at an izakaya called Parson's, where my boss used to be a regular customer. I told him that I liked sake, and when I asked for something different, he said, "Oh, no, they have sake. Here is a Junmai Ginjo from Hokusetsu Shuzo in Niigata. It is a rather common, easy-drinking, refreshing type of sake. The sweetness is moderate, and the strain is sweet enough to assert rice. The dryness that comes later gives it a nice sharpness. It can be drunk with food or with a glass of wine in the evening. Depending on how it is paired with other dishes, it has the potential to be as good as Kitanokatsu.
