Sairai Sara Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Shu
Rating 4.4
Alcohol 16%, Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic), Polishing ratio 50%.
This sake has the complex sweetness and umami that only unfiltered, unpasteurized sake can have, yet it is surprisingly light and easy to drink. The sharp acidity vividly outlines the flavor profile, and the freshness of the sake rushes down the throat. The refreshing mouthfeel is followed by a clean and crisp aftertaste. It has both the drinkability of a pure sake and a refined lightness, and is full of the transparency typical of Sairai. It is light, sharp, and has a slightly complex taste.
I went home for the first time in over a month.
On Saturday, we went to "Sairai" 🍶.
This is a bottle that I had brought a long time ago, but I couldn't open it because I can't bring "Sairai" with me everyday 😅.
This time, we were lucky enough to have "Sairai" with us, so we will open the bottle now 😋.
This one has a very different taste from the other "Sairai" 😅.
The aroma is mild.
The taste is a little heavy.
According to the wife, it has a strong sake taste.
The taste is heavy and sticky 😅.
As you drink it, you will get used to the taste and the smoothness, but even if you drink it at room temperature, the impression doesn't change so much that even your wife who loves "Sairai" will keep her distance from it 😅.
Hi, Mr. Baum 😃
Sairai, the taste varies from thing to thing, so there are definitely times when it is disappointing... 😥I love sairai, but there are actually some sairai that I don't like 💦I can totally understand why your wife feels it is too heavy 🥺.
Light and cloudy is easy to drink, so I'll just gulp it down 😅I'll have some sairai while watching M-1 🍶.
The aroma is lactic and alcoholic. In the mouth it has a mild sweetness and sourness, and the spiciness fades away with a little bit of residual spiciness. It's a little different from what I imagined 👀I thought it would be a little fresher, but it has a sticky sweetness like melon, watermelon or melon.
I've been eating it with popcorn and it's delicious ☺️✨

Next, let's go with a quick one by Sairai 🤭.
It is a light nigori with a slight milky white color.
The beautiful sweetness comes through in the first sip, followed by a refreshing mid-palate and a gentle acidity in the aftertaste 🎶.
It's still a wonderful drink. ‼️☝️
