It has a high ginjo aroma, a slight mellow sweetness, and a refreshing aftertaste.
This is indeed a Junmai Daiginjo from Niigata.
The sake meter reads +4, but the sake meter is actually not that important to the drinker. It is up to you to decide whether you find it spicy or sweet.
Flagship sake of Yoshinogawa, one of the biggest companies in Niigata🚩.
Thankfully, it was a gift. It's a premium sake 😅.
I've had it a few times, but this is the first time I'm facing it at home 🙇♂️
It comes in a full paulownia box with a product number (1227!).
It comes in a paulownia wood box with the product number (No. 1227!) and a note on the front that it was named by Onishi Ryokei, the former head priest of Kiyomizu-dera temple in Kyoto 📃.
The label is also inscribed with the calligraphy of Wajo.
It has an extraordinary atmosphere, but the taste is also recognizable as a high quality sake at first sip ✨It is a Junmai Daiginjo made from 100% Koshidanrei.
It has a refined ginjo aroma without being intrusive, and flows as smoothly and cleanly as water without any cloying flavors. 〰︎
And this is undeniably a food sake. It is a perfect accompaniment to any meal 🥢, but it also goes well with a wide range of local foods 😋.
Yes, I thought the quality of this sake was like a high level hybrid of sophistication and indigeneity.
Hmmm...isn't that exactly what Koshitanrei is, with Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku as parents! 😮
Maybe that is the borderline of Koshitanrei that makes me feel that way 🏁.
I think this sake is one of the pinnacle of Niigata sake made with rice produced in the prefecture 🤔.
Good morning, Mr. Hiraccio. ☀️
The visual is luxurious, but the taste is modest at first glance. The taste is modest at first glance, but I have the impression that it is of a high quality that cannot be hidden. I feel it is an Echigo-Tsumari sake 😊.

Minami Special Junmai Nama Sake
Shouwagura Junmai Daiginjo
Next was Shouwagura.
Mr. Gura raved about this one.
That's all I remember.
I got the impression that it had a strong umami flavor, but...
I will have to try again.
After comparing the drinks, I ordered the Kudo 😄.
It was a regular sake for New Year's gatherings, but since we live in a world like this, we opened it now.
The aroma is gentle, and when you put it in your mouth, it is as light as water.
The aroma starts just before you swallow it.
The aroma and taste are classic, but it's delicious!
