I had never heard of this seasonal series until I used Sake-no-Wawa. I could hardly detect any aroma but simply enjoyed it with my meal. The label seems to be "Izunuma: Lotus.
The third picture is a fantastic view from a sightseeing boat at the Izunuma-Uchinuma Lotus Festival on August 15, 2015.

Kame-no-o from Mr. Kurosawa in Miyagi Prefecture, known for its pesticide-free rice🍶🍶 Wataya from Kinai Sake Brewery
Wataya by Kinai Sake Brewery 🍶It's a must!
It's not flashy, but it's a hearty taste.
Thank you very much for your kindness.
On the way to Kumagaya Fireworks, I came to this store after learning that they sell Wataya.
I thought it would be a good place to buy sake on the way home from Forest Park, but it seemed to have a lot of good sake.
I bought a bottle of sake that had a pungent taste, but it had a gentle aftertaste. It has a gentle spiciness to it and a refreshing aftertaste that is perfect for summer.
I would like to drink it well chilled.
Light and refreshing! Good for summer! The label is bright and cool.
The next day, I accompanied my daughter to the hospital and finished her follow-up. We did great! We decided to watch a medical movie, so we watched TOKYO MER, ate delicious soba noodles, and celebrated.
And what do you mean you caught a cold yourself?
Hello, Nochi-san!
I'm very interested in your sake because I've never seen it before 🎵.
I'm so happy for your daughter🍀, but is your cold ok💦?
Soba and tendon is a one-pack 😁✨✨.
I watched MER twice 🤗
I've never had a drink at Wataya, only outside, so I can't speak highly of it 😋 The soba was delicious. I guess I'll stop eating Ramen and switch to Soba. I can't do it.
Commentary.
Wataya's standard and core Junmai Ginjo.
This junmai ginjo is made from Tokushima Prefecture (Awa) Yamada-Nishiki, carefully polished to 55% polishing, in pursuit of the clean and delicate flavor of Yamada-Nishiki.
The pure rice ginjo "Yamadanishiki" is typical of Wataya, with refreshing acidity, a clean, clear, soft flavor, and a gentle mouthfeel. The elegant taste that brings out the flavor of the ingredients is very appealing.
Polished rice 70%.
Aroma of rice.
It is very good. The acidity is 1.7, but you can hardly taste the acidity.
It goes very well with yakitori (grilled chicken) with sauce.
