Katori 2021 Junmai Namaishio
80% 15% 720ml 1309 yen
Purchased at a select organic store in Sancha. Made with pesticide-free rice.
The sticker on the label says "Nironi" and I wondered what it was, but it turned out to be NINO-NY (2021).
The color is quite amber.
It has a spiciness on the tongue and an acidity that reminds one of vinegar. And it has a nice aged taste. This is amazing.
The warmed sake gives it more of a "sake yeast" feel.
The rice seems to be a blend of various varieties, including an unfamiliar one called "Yukikawake.
I confirmed that it can be purchased on Amazon.com, and I think it will be one of the top sakes I drank in 2023.
Rating 4.4 (out of 5.0) 20230310
It is a unique sake with 90% polished rice and no additive yeast.
When I first drank it at a bar, I thought it was a bit of a surprise... but the strong backbone and deep flavor from the sake brewing process made it strangely addictive, and I bought it myself. It is a drink that invites food more than a capsule type drink.

Guts. Strong habit! Sour and dry. I thought the body blow would be too much, but it has 21.5 degrees of alcohol. It's a sake of kuze and sake strength. It has a Terada feel to it, but it's for the experts. 83 points.

Fermentation is great. It's not heavy, but it's very sweet. But it's not sweet, so fermentation is not hard. Yogurt that is not sweet. Katori is the best, but it doesn't taste like sake. A little buttery. 87 points

I bought this wine after an old lady at a liquor store recommended it to me.
It was my first experience with 90% polished rice.
It is a little sweet, but has a traditional sake feel to it.
Personally I am very satisfied 😊.
The color is more yellow than Kenrishi 😆.
This is the first taste I have ever had.
As we were told at the restaurant, it becomes easier to drink when heated.
It seems to go well with strong flavors such as cheese dishes.
I happened to find Terada Honke's sake at a liquor store and bought it unexpectedly!
Sake with a 90% rice polishing ratio, natural yeast, no filtration, and a lot of attention to detail.
At room temperature.
The color of the sake is yellowish because it is a sake yeast, and there is a faint lactic acid aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you first taste the characteristic strong acidity, and then the umami and richness typical of a sake made from the traditional sake yeast.
It has some peculiarities, but it is basically dry and goes down the throat easily.
The peculiarity seems to become milder when heated, but personally, I think it tastes better at room temperature.
It may not be for everyone, but if you like it, you'll love it!
For around 1300 yen (720mL), this is a great value!
Very tasty!

Looking for the event's unique 🍶...Day 2
As the sun went down and the chill in the air increased, I was still drawn to the heated sake and returned to the original booth.
I tried Terada Honke's Katori 80, a "natural sake" made only from rice grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers and water from the brewery's well, and heated by the power of the microorganisms in the brewery.
It was slightly amber in color, with an acidity similar to that of Gonin Musume, a slight astringency, and a rich, grain-like flavor. The wheyiness is a little subdued.

Good evening, Kotori-san. Sounds like a fun event called "Sake and Sake" 😆It's great to be able to drink heated sake from Terada Honke 🍶My body needs heated sake in the coming season. ♨️
Hi Hirupeko, good evening😊I always enjoy reading your posts😃At the plaza at the Utsunomiya station LRT depot. I was thrilled to see the 🍶 I was curious about at this event 😚 I was able to experience the depth of the expression that changes with the temperature of the warmed sake 👍♨️
