Kato Kahachiro Sake Brewery Daisen, Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture
(As a first step to tell you, this bottle will be made in August 2023, so the brewery recommends it. It may not be the way to drink it)
The aroma is fruity, somewhere between matte and juicy. The aroma is sour like yogurt. It also has a creamy feel.
The taste is refreshingly sweet. The sweetness makes it hard to get tired of drinking. The full-bodied sweetness of the wine keeps you from getting tired of drinking it. However, it should have been drunk earlier as it has an undeniable sense of aging. (That may be why it has a creamy aroma.)
I drank the nama sake earlier, but I prefer this one, which has a calmer taste. It depends on the occasion, but my personal preference would be fire-aged sake.
The fermentation process is carried out in a 10:10 ratio of water to rice, with a high concentration of rice, which produces a rich flavor.
This sparkling wine has a juicy fruitiness due to the oli entanglement.
On the other hand, it has a refreshingly bouncy and effervescent taste, making it a softer sparkling wine than wine-type sparkling wine.
The sake museum at Yamagata Zao Onsen was good.

We drank a lot of good sake.
I had a cold glass of Jusui that I bought there.
It has a very fruity aroma.
The first sip has a soft aroma of rice and a sweet flavor.
It is delicious. The aftertaste is clean and refreshing without any peculiarities.
Even sake beginners will enjoy it.
But I heard it's better heated. I will try it later.
I was so busy drinking I forgot to comment.
Heating up the sake is good.
The flavor is the same as when cold, but the aroma is richer.
Heating up special junmai is a luxury.
Goes well with sashimi.
I want to drink it again.
Yamagata again this year.

Wow Σ(Σ") rice feeling. The sense of rice. The sense of honey of flowers.

Jusui Sparkling
Jusui brewing is a dark sake with little water.
It is a dark sake with a low water content.
But the alcoholic content is normal at 15.5 degrees
This is the first time to make sparkling sake.
It was so good last time!
I bought another bottle!
I'll have it with yakitori.
