As the label says, it is mellow and dry!
The aroma of rice flavor was subtle at the moment of drinking.
It was dry and refreshing as only a dry sake can be.
I thought it was a good aperitif.

のちを
This is my first brand. I didn't expect much, but it was delicious and a pleasant miscalculation.
The acidity is delicious. It is easy to drink. It is like a summer sake. It has a long aftertaste.
It was a hit.

This one also has the same 91% remaining as the Chogen.
The color is amazing, like an old sake. There is almost no aroma.
I realized again that Kinmon-nishiki sake rice is really delicious. I guess the brewer wants to make it a jungin, not because it is junmai, but because it is delicious, and wants to bring it to the level of daiginjo. As expected of Mr. Miyajima. Kinmon Junmai. Very good! It conveys straight away that this is what umami is all about. Everyone will find it delicious. Now it's time to see how it goes with food. We will try that from now on.

コロまる
Kinmon-Nishiki 91% polished rice
The nose is ripe muscat with a slight astringency. Aromatic rice flavor.
In the mouth, the soft and gentle flavor of rice spreads. There is also a strong sweetness reminiscent of rice confectionery or cotton candy.
As it is swallowed, a nutty aroma and refreshing bitterness appear and rise.
Snapping and lingering, the bitterness is dry and refreshing.
Warm it up and you'll get even more flavor and umami from the freshly cooked rice!
It's solidly good any way you drink it!
It is a wonderful sake.

Zankuro特別純米酒 生酒

Mellow and dry...
It's not so much mellow as it is refreshing.
But it's not lacking, it's just right.
Some spiciness to follow?
Alcoholic? The "I" is the first word that comes to my mind.
There is almost no bitterness or sourness.
I thought the same thing the last time I drank Zank Zankuro.
I like this.

A sake brewed by Miyajima Sake Brewery, which brews Shinonokishiki, with sharpness in mind.
It is sharp as it is called "Isagiyoshi".
The acidity is strong, the bitterness is small, and it is clean and crisp.
It is not enough to drink by itself, but it is perfect to accompany a meal.
It goes perfectly with boiled taro.
It is a moment to be glad to be Japanese.

Junmaishu is a junmaishu with a matured flavor.
It has a more mature taste than the same brand, Mujirushi, but the rice polishing ratio is 80% here, so it is a bit heavy.
Mujirushi has a better balance, which I prefer.
Of course, we enjoyed this one as a heated sake as well.

I love all the sake from this brewery because they all have an aged flavor.
This one has the right amount of acidity to give it that aged feel, and it's great as a heated sake. For me, it's best lukewarm.
The price is about 2100 yen for a bottle, so it's the best value.
Unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere near my house. I think I'll buy a lot next time I'm in the Nagano area.
