At the usual restaurant
The master introduced me to a drink whose jacket looks like a wine 🍷.
The master introduced me to a sake that looks like a wine 🙂.
Sake level is minus 6 and it has a strong sweetness,
It had a good balance between sweetness and acidity 😋.
The snacks were fried chicken wings and marinated tomatoes 🍅!
Since it is a polished 39, one would expect it to have a clear taste in one's imagination, but it has a surprisingly dry taste. Mildly sweet on the tip of the tongue and tingling in the back of the throat. I had it with stinky blue cheese🧀: ❤️
1419 yen at Super Belk in Tokyo, with points redeemed.
Tasty! The aroma is tropical, but not too far south, with a fruity aroma? (Hard to tell...).
I also like the thick and mellow sensation, probably because it is unfiltered. The taste is also mellow, yet still sharp, which I also like. Thanks Berg, I didn't know you could buy this at a supermarket...!
The brewery and rice for the first time
There is an aroma that permeates the nose.
Delicious with a gentle, smooth sweetness.
The tininess of the rice makes it sweeter and more acidic, so it would be good with oily food.
Senjo's "Kuromatsu Senjo Junmai Daiginjo 2025 Test Brewing Sake, Polishing 39".
This Junmai Daiginjo spec test brew is made from a new variety of sake, "Shinkoshu No. 555 (variety name: Yamamizuki)" bred by the Nagano Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station.
The elegant aroma stands out, with a hint of gentle fruitiness reminiscent of white peaches and green apples, and a dignified elegance without being overly gorgeous.
The crisp acidity tightens the taste, and the fresh sweetness spreads pleasantly in the aftertaste.
Its clear taste blends well with delicate dishes, especially Japanese cuisine, making it an excellent choice as a mealtime sake.

I thought I didn't know about this sake, but Kuromatsu Senjo was the brand I drank at Sendai Ami two years ago!
I thought it was dry, but this sake also had a fruity acidity!
Nagano sake is very interesting 🤔.

The taste is -6, so you would expect it to be very sweet, but it is not that bad with some sourness and bitterness.
Delicious!

Sweet and refreshing aroma like pineapple. Light sweetness and fruity acidity remain.
