Mr. W.
The gorgeous ginjo aroma spreads, and I can detect light fruity aromas like apples and melons 😋.
Smooth on the palate, with the soft flavor of rice spreading in the mouth.
The sake level was -2 to 3, but it was not as sweet as it said, and the acidity was also effective, making it easy to drink. ☺️
I paired it with jaga mentaiko (cod roe), but I got the impression that it is a delicious sake no matter what it is paired with 😌.
A special version of our favorite W. When the bottle is opened, the aroma of ginjo is irresistible and gorgeous. I was enchanted. In the mouth, the sweetness is followed by the umami, and when you swallow it, the crispness makes you forget that you are drinking sake. It tastes expensive (laugh), but it is really delicious!
Komatsuna with mentsuyu is sweet, but the sweetness of the sake increases. Umami~. Sea grapes with vinegared sugarcane also goes well with sake. The sugarcane vinegar is also sweet, but it doesn't lose its sweetness! The bitterness of the raw baby sardines brings out the fruity flavor of the sake, which is also wonderful. Tono had kochi sashimi, which he received as a gift, with New Summer orange olive oil and salt. This is the best. The strange thing is that the citrus in the oil doubles the fruitiness of the sake. Delicious. Oh, there was one more dish. The butter and black pepper in the salmon mignonette is reset by the sweetness, which is also nice. I felt like I was enjoying heaven!

This is the first time I drank Doubleday in the last year!
It is made from a fantastic sake rice called Koraiyako, and I was curious to buy it because I had never seen it before, except for a special junmai from Yamaguchi Prefecture's Yamazaru, which I had drunk before!
It has a sweet aroma of tropical fruits reminiscent of pineapple, and at the same time, it gives a mild impression!
It has a refreshing mouthfeel and a juicy sweetness that is typical of nama-zake,
The full-bodied umami and bitterness soon arrive, giving it a deep and calm feeling. ✨️
The sweetness is not persistent and disappears quickly, making it very easy to drink and enjoy☺.
It says "Kakaragoto"...what kind of sake is it...I've never seen it before...
I had an image of W as sweet, but it is dry.
But it is very juicy.
It has a gutsy rice flavor and goes well with fish dishes.
I'm drinking it with gusto while picking up the grilled Akinatai fish I haven't had in years.
I drink with gusto.
I finished the weekend with my favorite taste.
Let's work hard next week 💪.
Thank you for your comment, ma-ki-. There are a lot of things to do in Gifu, too. I am going to Gujo Hachiman today, so I will stock up on a lot of things!
I always enjoy looking at your site!
A gem brewed with sake rice "Guriyanto", which was once used as a gift rice for the Emperor.
I was surprised to find out that it is a Junmai Daiginjo, even though it claims to be Junmai!
A fresh and gorgeous ginjo aroma reminiscent of lush meadows and apples!
From the clear mouthfeel, the rice flavor is lightly grainy, with a soft sweetness reminiscent of white peaches and a touch of sourness that finishes with a rather long aftertaste.
