Light to mellow and dry type
The sweetness and umami balance well in the mouth.
The gentle aroma of Yamada-Nishiki passes through the nose.
The balance of sweetness and umami is good right from the start, which is a relief. After a while on the tongue, a slight astringency comes in.
The sharpness of the aftertaste and the length of the aftertaste are normal.
As is typical of Sagaminada, this sake has a slow and deliberate rice flavor, and you can feel its deliciousness any time you drink it.
It is one of the breweries that should be better known because it is made by a small group of people who make a solid and delicious sake, although it is not a national brand.
I've been waiting for this 🙌
I love Sagaminada ❗️
Autumn flavor
It's especially good this year!
From the president of Ohbuchi Sake Shop...
Well, well... pon ‼️ sounds great!
Let's see...
A little spicy at first...
Then it comes and goes...
It's so easy to drink.
It's a stable flavor...
I just opened it on the day it was released, so I'm sure the taste will change in the future.
I think the taste will change in the future.
I would like to enjoy it carefully.
Today on TV 📺 there was a report on the Sake Shinkansen 🚄. The plan was to enjoy 14 items of Niigata's Daiginjo-class Sake and a box lunch using Niigata's ingredients during the 2 hours and 30 minutes journey from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka. I was impressed by the expressions on everyone's faces.
This time we got Sagaminada from Kanagawa Prefecture.
It is a delicious Daigin-standard sake made from Miyamanishiki polished to 50%. It has a rich ginjo aroma and a refreshing taste. Very tasty 😋.
Good evening, Shota 😃.
The whole train 🏮 Izakaya bullet train 🚅 will be fun 😚 if you drink in good shape for 2 hours and 30 minutes 🤤 you might not be able to get off 😆.
Hello Jay & Nobby😃!
Riding your favorite train 🚃 and indulging in local sake and food! The happiest for drinkers 😀 I wish I could make time to fly around the country, all over the country!
I've been drinking 🥂 for a long time
I haven't had this sake in a long time 😋.
Fresh and the sweetness of the rice is irresistible!
It was a delicious sake 🤤.
Tokusen Junmai-shu Unfiltered Nama-shu⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Rice polishing ratio 55%, ALC 16%.
The aroma of koji (malted rice) is subtle, and in the mouth, there is not much of the carbonation (shuwashu) characteristic of nama-shu, but rather a full flavor and the deliciousness of the rice.
Actually, I went to the store for [Sagaminada Tokubetsu Junmai Shu Dry Oorigarami], but it was sold out😭.
So, I checked again and decided to go for this sake, which was my first encounter with this brand.
I was expecting to find more of the same brand, but I was not disappointed... 🤗

Junmai-Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-Shu_⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
100% Yamadanishiki, Polishing ratio 50%.
ALC 16 degrees
On 20221210, we came across a Junmai Ginjo, fire-brewed, 100% Yamadanishiki, 50% polished rice, 16% ALC, but decided to register it as new since it is an unfiltered nama-shu 🤗.
Although it is a nama-shu, I think it is a crisp, slightly dry sake with a good balance of acidity and bitterness, with little stimulation that tingles on the tongue.

It is refreshing and the sweetness is really moderate. The umami taste comes quickly, followed by sourness and a hint of bitterness, but the overall taste is crisp and dry without a fruity or sugary feel, perfect for seafood. I'm having dinner today with some bonito from the supermarket. 😊
Next time I'd like to pair it with Kanagawa's local horse mackerel tataki. 🐈️🐈️
Yesterday, after my sisters in Sapporo got together for the first time in 6 years at my parents' house in Chiba, I bought this at Rakuendai Ito Sake Shop on my way home.
Hi Lara's Sake 😃.
We only have one bottle of Kanagawa sake 🍶🥲 and I've seen Sagaminada at a local liquor store, so I think I'll try the second bottle with seafood 🤗.
Hello J&N! While it doesn't have much fruitiness, I felt that its refreshing taste would go well with seafood. If you have a chance, please give it a try. ☺️
At the Sake Fair
This one was very tasty with a good balance of freshness and umami.
It had a sweet and sour taste at first, not too strong bitterness, and a richness that is typical of Omachi.
It has been a while since I've had a chance to buy one 😃🎵.
Home drinking.
I bought a bottle when I visited the brewery 🍾.
We were given a tour of the brewery and were able to hear many valuable stories about the toji in the past 😆.
It was a great learning experience. 🙇♂️
Here is the sake.
Sake rice is 100% Yamadanishiki
The color is clear.
The aroma is a faint scent of pineapple.
It is not too sweet and has a subtle, deep aroma.
The taste is slightly sweet. Soft and clear sweetness.
The mouthfeel is as refreshing as water, and the taste is mild and smooth.
The fragrance is also very subtle, with a hint of ginjo aroma.
It is an elegant and harmonious sake with a refined perfection.
It is my personal favorite type of sake🍶. ☺️
