Here is what we have on the night of the winter solstice. I bought this bottle when I visited Zenkoji Temple. It is a matsuri (a kind of Japanese tea), but it has a refreshing aftertaste.
Nishinomon Junmai Daiginjo 40
Yoshinoya (Nagano City, Nagano Prefecture)
Nishinomon Junmai Ginjo
The aroma is very mild. It has an alcoholic smell.
The mouthfeel is sweet and a little heavy. However, it is easy to drink for a sweet sake.
It has no sharpness and is suitable for leisurely drinking. There is not much aftertaste, and the image is of drinking it in a calm and leisurely manner.
It has a heavy mouthfeel for a junmai ginjo, so it may be suitable for different people.
As the yellow label suggests, it is delicious with a pineapple-like aroma and taste.
It is a refreshing sake with a harmonious balance of sweetness and sourness.
It is delicious.
Tastes like ripe melon, cemedine. Too sweet for my taste.
I had the nabe as a side dish, but the sweetness still seemed to prevail.

Rice polishing ratio: 50%.
Nishinomon Junmai Ginjo Nigori Sake 720ml
Rice polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 16%.
On 11/25, I wanted to buy Iraka black sake at Hattoya Sake Shop, but before I went there, I dropped in at Yoshinoya Nishinomon near Zenkoji Temple. They did not have any nama-shu on sale, nor did they have Junmai-daiginjo, which is only available at exclusive dealers.
I opened the bottle. It was surprisingly refreshing and creamy. It is a perfect food sake 😃. It is perfect for a mealtime sake 😃.
Lunch was at Daizen-san in Zenkoji Omotesando.
Here is a bottle to accompany this evening. When the bottle is opened, it has a flowery ginjo aroma. In the mouth, it has the sweetness of apples filled with honey. The sweetness clings to the tongue, but the acidity neutralizes it and it goes down your throat nicely. Today is a time sale side dish day. When paired with fried quail egg, the oil flows nicely. The fried burdock root is sweetly seasoned, which refreshes the sake and creates an endless loop. The main course is sushi. This rounded out the entire sake and made it very easy to drink. I enjoyed drinking again this evening!
Strongly carbonated liquor with a sweet and strong aroma.
The sake was easy to drink and tasty with a clean aftertaste
I made my own sake cups that had just arrived. Cheers!
