Today's sake is "On a night like this... Yamame" Junmai Ginjo from Kuromatsu Senjo in Takato, Ina City, Nagano Prefecture❗️
The aroma is a subtle sweet scent of ginjo❗️After a sip, the taste is mild, followed by a touch of astringency❗️And then a fruity ginjo aroma escapes through the nose❗️❗️A good sake for a mealtime drink⭕️

We had it after Daishichi.
It has a fruity aroma typical of daiginjos.
The soft sweetness was harmonized with the bitterness that came after it.
It was very good. ☺️
The side dish was fried squid and zucchini with sake-soy sauce.
#YOMOYAMANAGANO Light, clean, and clear, with a gradually spreading sweetness and flavor. It is very tasty, but it is probably no longer available. It is said to be a limited production. I hope they make it again.
Limited Edition Kuromatsu Senjyo Junmai Daiginjo Yamae Nishiki 40 Namogen Sake R6BY" by Senjo Co.
The "Sankenishiki", a new variety of rice for sake brewing developed by Nagano Prefecture as a possible alternative to Miyamanishiki, is polished to 40% to achieve a "delicate" and clear sake quality. The Association No. 18 yeast produces a mellow, fruity aroma reminiscent of hot fruits. The freshness and umami of the rice that can only be achieved with unadulterated sake stand out, and the smooth texture and elegant sweetness harmonize well with each other. The deep aftertaste is pleasant.

As Master Sake is away on a fishing trip during GW
I received a series of reduced ones instead.
I had a series of 🥰
The one that was left at the bottom of the bottle.
It doesn't have the gassy feel of a fresh cut, though,
At first it was rich and fruity, later
I found the sweetness and acidity pleasant. 😆
My senior at work who went to see cherry blossoms in Takato
bought a small bottle of 300ml as a souvenir!
This is a brand new to me!
50% polished domestic rice, 15% alcohol by volume
Twist the aluminum cap tightly.
The sound of opening the bottle is silent.
Pour it into a flat sake cup and drink it.
Oh, it's so delicious. ☺️
A clear mouthfeel with a moderately sweet milky aroma
It has a nice sweet milky aroma.
The taste is not too sweet, but not too sweet.
The taste is orthodox.
Easy to drink with a nice sweet aroma like amazake, but the taste is orthodox, so this can be drunk alone or even during a meal...
I found another delicious Nagano sake!
