かげろう
We opened the bottle just as the temperature was dropping because we knew it was a sake that could be enjoyed lukewarm.
It was a delicious sake with a mild aroma and mouthfeel, with a deep, spicy flavor that spread down the back of the throat and cut cleanly.

よしお
Chilled, refreshing and tight.
Sourness stands out, but the sensation is mellow.
Warm it up and the flavor of the rice expands.

Good morning, Yoshio-san. I read your profile. Your love for Yamagata is great. I also started drinking sake because there is a brewery owned by a descendant of Kiyomasa Kato. Yamagata's sake is really delicious. I am looking forward to checking in. 😊

Good evening, AAJI.
I sometimes visit Yamagata to indulge in binge drinking and eating.
Yamagata is full of delicious food and drink.
I will not drink from the brewery of Kiyomasa Kato's descendant for a while, but I will devote myself to conquering all the breweries in Yamagata.

Fruits and Junmai Dry Harakiri Harakiri Koigawa] Summer Sake
Bought by mail order.
At room temperature. The aroma is definitely fruity, like banana. I don't like sake with a strong aroma, but I like this one a lot. The package is cute and I recommend it as a gift.

For the next sake, my brother requested a dry and clean sake, and the sake we chose was Junmai Daiginjo-shu from Koigawa (Koigawa).
It was my favorite type of sake and was quickly consumed 😜.

やす☆
R1 bottled Koikawa. At room temperature, it has a strong sense of maturity.
When warmed, it has a strong sense of sharpness at higher temperatures, but as the temperature drops, the balance between umami and sharpness, including a mild sense of maturity, improves.

Purchased during a visit to the Umegawa liquor store in Shonai-machi. Classic standard junmai sake. A junmai sake with moderate body and a hint of rice sweetness. The current head brewer seems to be sticking to this style, which warms up quickly. There are many modern styles of sake in Shonai, as well as some that are light, tasty, and beautiful in keeping with the refined food culture of Tsuruoka-Sakata, but I think this one is really more along the lines of a classic.
It seems to be the most standard among the brands, and I would like to try something different in the future.
