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.

It is a gem with the elegant sweetness of Yamada-Nishiki and the flavor of clear water. Its dexterity is impressive, as it does not interfere with the meal, yet asserts itself well on its own.

As Hokusetsu, it is different (in a good way, of course) and sweet on the palate. The crisp and dry taste came afterwards, which is moderate compared to other Hokusetsu, while leaving a fresh and fresh feeling 😃.

Echigo-Kenshin SAKE Festival 2024 17 Northern snow. It's YK35 after all 😋. It's delicious but the price is also 😌. I'm happy to taste these sake 😃. This is the turnaround point and the second tour including the place we forgot to stop after this.

Alcohol content: 15 Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 70 Compared to the Koshino Katora Super-Salty, which we checked in one time ago, this is a dry sake with the umami of rice. It is not boring to drink, but it is more of an evening sake to be enjoyed with food than to be savored. I personally tend to rate dry sakes in this way.
