At Izakaya I had it paired with the owner's selection, grilled saury. The sake, aged in a cave used for storing ginger, was delicious.

Dokure Hiyoshi Oroshi Junmai Ginjo Shimanto River Headwaters Cave Enclosure. The aroma is a mild iso-type aroma that is a bit hard, but it seems to spread with air. The pleasantly smooth nose is followed by a strong acidity and umami, which leaves a strong impact in the mouth. The hints of bitterness and calmness in the back of the aroma are also to my liking. It is also good with a hint of sweetness in the background and a beautiful sharpness along with the sourness and bitterness in the aftertaste. Dokurei, which I always drink every year, is very good.

It's not extremely spicy or sweet in a good way, and it's nice and intoxicating 🙂.

A little sweeter than Yamama, a famous sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery. It is a little sweeter than Yamama, a well-known sake from Niigata Daiichi Sake Brewery, but it shines brightly when paired with food. It is a sake with a strong and powerful flavor. A salad of fresh onions and tuna is a good snack.

Last of the day. Aged for one year. The mouthfeel, umami and sweetness become mellow. The umami is mellow from the middle to the end of the bottle.

Original Sake by Kishinami Brewery Darubish! Or rather, Tarubish! It's a pretty good name! It was the last bottle. Unfortunately, I can't believe they are closing at the end of next month 😭 Just like the name, the cedar barrel(?) The aroma of cedar barrels(?) is amazing! Not my favorite... The alcohol content is 16%, so it comes with a bang. It's already winter on the Northeast Highway, it's better that there is no snow on the road yet! Today we went to a curry shop in Aomori... They say you can only eat the roux once... I'm full 🈵!

Not as sweet as the flavor, with a crisp aftertaste.

Although it's not stated on the label, the rice polishing ratio is 65%, the sake level is -13, and the rice is Hatsushimo. It is very sour. It is very sour, and has a strong personality even among sake made with white koji. This sourness is like Niwa-shu or Bodai-gan. I heard that there was a limited edition of this sake, but I'm curious.

I drank it hot. I think dry sake tastes best when heated.

Deep and dark sake. It is deep and dark, but has a sharp taste.

I bought this bottle at Belk's on my way to work because my body was in need of a drink. I got the impression that it is not a traditional sake, but a modern, clean or refreshing drink. And the specs are Rice used: Domestic rice (both rice and rice malt) Polishing ratio = 50%. Sake meter = around 2.0 Acidity = around 1.4 Amino acidity = around 1.1 (From the brewery's website) If you are going to drink a cup of sake, you want it to have this level of quality. This is a bottle from a long-established brewery in Handa, Aichi, which has been in existence since the Edo period.

At Sekai no Yamachan Hakata Bus Terminal Branch, I met Handago at the World Yamachan Hakata Bus Terminal! It is fruity and has a clean aftertaste. It goes well with Dote-ni.

Last of the day. Kitashizuku. Aroma and sweetness. Slightly hard, with a pungent spiciness that slips away smoothly, accompanied by a sense of minerality.

Japanese>English

Mishio Junmai Ginjo Omachi 100% Omachi produced in Okayama Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15-16%. Sake meter degree +2, acidity 1.8 (reference) Fat 5/7, opened 5/23 I wanted to drink a dry sake from Kochi and was attracted by the label that looked like a pattern of playing cards I used to have at my parents' house 🤣. The brand "Bishio" is a new brand that started in 2014. It is one of the Junmai Ginjo series that is based on the concept of "elegant sweetness reminiscent of honey" and is part of a trilogy that includes "Kitashizuku", "Gin no Yume", and "Omachi". The aroma is almost imperceptible after opening the bottle. In the mouth, it has a fruity, fruity aroma and flavor, but at the same time, the alcohol is very strong. The acidity is moderate and not harsh. The acidity is not too strong, but it's more spicy and tingling than the number 😅. I tried to drink it after 4 days, which is unusual for me, but although the mouthfeel got better, the strong alcohol feeling didn't go away. The aftertaste is light, so it would be classified as light-dry. It's like a Tosa sake in that respect 😊. Unfortunately, it didn't suit me and was disappointing 😅. Oh! Maybe I should have tried heating it up 🤔.

Japanese>English

Just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. I had never seen "Mishio" before.
