Well-balanced, easy to drink and pleasant to drink.
The sweetness and umami are well balanced, but the acidity is less pronounced than in Mie Yamadanishiki Nama.
The taste is fleeting, disappearing quickly in the aftertaste.
Characteristic of Japanese pear
To be honest, it does not have much character.
The Mie Yamadanishiki has opened up considerably over the course of the day, so I would expect this one to do the same...
Tentative rating: 4.50

It is refreshing but also has an apple-like sweetness. I could drink as much as I want, which is dangerous.

I was working late on Tuesday and was thinking it was time to go home when my senior invited me out for a drink.
He took me to a restaurant where he told me there was sake available! I had no choice but to order it! And I was lucky because they had just opened the bottle!
It tasted just the right amount of sweetness and was easy to drink! I knew it! ♡♡♡

Pork kimchi nabe that was not on the blackboard of the recommended menu the day before!
When I told the young chef that I wanted to try it, he added it to the menu!
I told him that I would ask for it after I finished the egg and beef radish, and it came out!
Now, let's have the real star of tonight's sake!
Jikin Junmai Ginjo Mie Yamadanishiki Nama!
Last year at shigi38, we had this Yamadanishiki for the first time, but tonight it's a raw sake!
A crispy cold Jikin with a hot pot of atachi!
I can't get enough of it!
After all, Jikin is a typical fruity sake!
It spreads and dances in your mouth!
It's like that!
There was a feature article on Jikin in a sake bible I bought a while ago, and it makes me think that I must drink it when I see Jikin!
For a while, Mishina and shigi38 will be chasing after Jikin!
It's a guessing game 😁.
(knowledge of Japanese sake)
Rice used: Yamadanishiki from Iga area, Mie Prefecture (100%)

A light sweet wine that goes down smoothly and without any cloying flavors.
Well-balanced sweetness and acidity, very refined.
However, it is so light that if you are not careful, you may swallow it without feeling it.
In the aftertaste, there is a slight bitterness that is typical of Jikkomai, and the addition of a strong umami taste is pleasantly pleasant.
Delicious, but not impressive. Personally, I prefer the special junmai (special?).
The next day, it is still light throughout, but juiciness has appeared.
Balance is still the best!

Tonight, I opened a bottle of this for the first time in a few days after a long day of drinking outside.
Jikin Junmai Ginjo Hachitan Nishiki Unfiltered Nama 2022BY✨.
It's been a while since I've had a bottle of Jigikon, but I let it sit for 2 years 😅The jacket has already been redesigned, so the retro austerity shines through 😎.
I started with the aroma, wondering about the degree of aging. The aroma is clear and transparent, with a hint of wild herbs and sweet white sugar. The taste is on the contrary, a little matured honeyed apple sweet and sour with a delicious umami flavor 😋😋😋😋😋.
The aftertaste has a nice sharpness 👍
I must say it's a quintessential example of high perfection 😉.

Jikin Junmai Ginjo Mie Yamadanishiki Nama.
We drank a bottle of Jigin Junmai Ginjyo to compare it with the Takasago we had the other day.
It has a mellow top nose like banana or pineapple, and a pleasant gasiness that stimulates the back of the throat.
The gentle and elegant sweetness of Yamada-Nishiki is brought out to the fullest, and is well balanced with a generous umami that clings to the entire tongue.
The acidity and moderate bitterness elegantly linger on the palate.
The freshness and gorgeous balance of the wine, while still being very drinkable, is a quintessential example of the "Takasago" style.

I am not certain of the details, so I won't list them, but it is probably Yoshikawa Yamadanishiki Hi-iri.
If you know the name, please let me know.
This is the bottle that changed my concept of sake.
I had no idea how precious it was or that I would be keeping a record of it, and I forgot to take a picture of the label on the back...
I had never been a fan of sake before and had a bad image of it, but I was impressed that something so elegant and easy to drink existed.
A friend of mine was able to purchase it and recommended that I try it.
Thanks to my friend's luck and kindness.

A friend and I were having a drink after a concert.
The sake was not available at the store, but the waitress made a smart offer when we were talking about various types of sake.
The sake was easy to drink as usual, and Jikin, which got me hooked on sake, was the best.
Once in a lifetime encounter.

Bebe, nice to meet you!
It's great to enjoy a glass of Jikin after a live concert!
One of the things that got me hooked on sake was Jikin, so I guess it's a once-in-a-lifetime encounter 😊.

ma-ki- Thank you for your comment!
I appreciate the shopkeeper. The sake swamp is exactly what it sounds like, and it was Jikkai that got me hooked on sake too.
It's important to enjoy what you can drink at the time to the fullest. ☺️
