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.

Next selected was Hokusetsu It's been a long time since we met. Already 2 years ago at the Daimon Speaking of Hokusetsu, it's YK35 This was my debut with Hokusetsu. After that, we used to meet at Ami in Sendai, but recently we haven't been able to see each other very often. I couldn't remember what it tasted like anymore, but it was a well-known one in Niigata. There were no disappointments! Dishes and fried food were also served! How many dishes are coming out? Master, silently devoting himself to cooking! his extensive knowledge Ingredient rice Niigata Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 16 Sake degree +2.8

YK35, Koshi-tanrei Both are dry and sharp. YK35 has a sharper sharpness. A few days after opening the bottle, it will become rounder and you can enjoy the difference in taste.

There is almost no aroma, and the mouthfeel is smooth, with only a hint of sweetness and a slight sourness. Although there is some alcohol in the aftertaste, it disappears gently and refreshingly like water. Light like water. When heated, it goes down your throat even more easily without any alcohol. This lightness is unparalleled. Alcohol content 15%. Sake meter meter +5.5 Acidity 1.3 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
