I asked for a variety of sakes to try 🍶.
When I poured it into the glass, the fruity and gorgeous ginjo aroma spread out, and I sipped it with fruity and subtle floral nuances 😋😋.
The attack is impressive with a strong unfiltered raw sake-like attack, and while you can feel the alcohol, it is softly enveloped by the alcohol, making it smoother and easier to drink than you might imagine 😆✨.
The sweetness is moderate, but the umami of the rice spreads slowly and is well neutralized by the moderate bitterness and richness, and it goes so well with ham and cheese cutlets that I kept muttering how delicious it was 😌.
This is why I can't stop drinking sake 🥳.
The second drink is the moon after the rain 🌕.
It is a major sake, but this was the second time I drank it.
It's a very Hiroshima-like light and dry sake, and this one was delicious too. 🙆♂️
It's been a long time since I've been in Torisaki.
The first drink of the day was a very dry one of the moon after the rain.
Really dry at +14! And yet very tasty! I highly recommend this.
Don't forget to have a side dish of sake.

A summer sake I wanted to try!
As the name suggests, it is refreshing and cool to drink.
The umami taste is unexpectedly strong and follows it. It is good because I like umami better!
I looked up how to make sake on the internet and tried it, but I have no idea how to do it. ......
I couldn't find any nuance of muscat or melon that was mentioned in the flavor introduction. ...... If I had to guess, I would say that the refreshing sweetness was almost minty.
I thought it would go well with dishes with acidity, so I prepared some marinated dishes, but the salmon sashimi I had later matched it better... Maybe it goes better with simple snacks like sashimi and salt grilled fish.
Junmai Ginjo🍶.
Traveling in Hiroshima✈️🚃First time in this restaurant, my friend made a reservation for me to try Hiroshima's famous oysters and conger eel ✨.
Not great specs but very beautiful sake 😆 Full marks 💯 Makes the conger eel sashimi even better.

Amego no Tsuki Junmai Daiginjo Black Moon Unfiltered Nama-shu Akaoni Limited Edition
July 5, 2025
Sangenjaya Akaki
Hiroshima sake limited to Akaki, Junmai Daiginjo made with Omachi from Akaban. This one also has a nice fruity aroma. The sweet and sourness spreads smoothly on the palate. The ginjo aroma that escapes into the nose after the sake is swallowed is superb. The juicy flavor and bitterness finish the palate. It matched well with the mizu-aubergine sashimi and we had a wonderful time.

Aftertaste: Clear. Pleasant bitterness.
Impression: Light and dry with a fruity aroma
Aromatic, light and dry with a fruity aroma.
The aroma is fresh and fruity, with green apple, muscatel, and pear aromas, but the taste is sharp and reserved.
The acidity is beautiful and forms the backbone of the entire wine, with sweetness playing only a supporting role. The bitterness lingers moderately in the aftertaste, which is easily cut off and complements the food.
The aroma is prominent, but the structure is such that it does not interfere with the meal. This is a refined, light-bodied ginjo-shu that is typical of Amego no Tsuki.
