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.

The 22nd sake brewery in Gifu Prefecture. The main brand of Chiyogiku K.K. located in Hashima City. Purchased at a supercenter in Seki City. The aroma is a weak ginjo aroma. It is a light and dry type with little acidity. It is easy to drink with a clean aftertaste.

This is a dry sake from Kamekichi🐢. It's a sake that is consumed almost exclusively in Aomori prefecture, especially in the Tsugaru region. I don't think chika-san drinks it... 😌. The first aroma is softly sweet. In the mouth, the sweetness is subdued, but the umami is well expressed and it has a beautiful dry taste typical of Aomori sake. Although it is dry, it has the same umami as the Tamadaru Junmai Namaisake from the same brewery that I drank in early spring 😊. Like the previous Sakuta, it is a legitimate food sake with enough umami to not interfere with the meal. It was delicious 🐢✨️

Low acidity, high bitterness, moderate sweetness. Not too thick, not too thin, just right and mellow. It has a strong taste, so it will not be defeated by fried food. It will shine most brightly as an accompaniment to grilled skewers and protein dishes at Japanese-style pubs.

This is a unit work of three breweries in Joetsu: Katafune (Takeda Sake Brewery), Koshiji-no-Kenbai (Kubiki Shuzo), and Chiyonomitsu (Chiyonomitsu Sake Brewery). Kura-kept yeast, fresh yeast, and shibari. The proprietor introduced that there is a new trial in Niigata as well. Delicious! It starts with a light sweetness, followed by acidity and a sharp bitterness. This complexity is good. I couldn't take my eyes off of the sake from Joetsu. There is a recommendation from Takeda Shuzo on the back label, which is also interesting.

A little luxury study series. I bought several bottles as gifts for acquaintances. When I was asked what I thought of them, I thought it would be tactful to say, "I haven't drunk them myself. I came up with the convenient excuse that it would be tactless to say, "I haven't drunk it myself," and gave it as a gift to myself. It is slightly effervescent. Although the fruity flavor I had hoped for was somewhat subdued, I could taste the flavor, weight, and aftertaste of a high-class sake, or a sake of style. I can't verbalize it well, but my tongue and taste buds are too poor to analyze it even though it tastes kind of good. Like drinking it after offering it to a Shinto altar. There is almost no sake or alcohol smell, and it seems to go well with Japanese food. When I drink it after all this lifting, it is called guzzling. May we have a chance to meet again...

Then we have the Jun Dai on the left side. This one has a nice fluffy ginjo aroma, as is typical of jun-dai. The mouthfeel is light and sweet, and the acidity changes to a nice sourness in the mouth. It's kind of elegant! Thank you for the sake!

Next is Golden Crane When I ask the locals on Sado Island what sake they drink, almost everyone answers, "Kintsuru. Almost all of them answer, "Kintsuru. It is the most major sake on Sado Island. Light and dry! Shakiness that is a model of Niigata sake. What is noteworthy is its transparency! There is no unpleasant feeling of brewing alcohol, so it is so easy to drink that it is almost like water. It is so easy to drink that it almost feels like water. It is a delicious and scary yuzu.

Junmai Ginjo🍶Summer only sake 😆. Sweet and thick 😳. It's like coarse 😅. When you take your time to sip it, it softens a bit and has a dry melon aftertaste. Softened by Aizu's specialty, squid and carrots. The final dish is a chilled shoyu sauce, which is unique to summer. But it is rather refreshing. The soup is delicious. But I wonder if it's a change 🤔. Aizu Kitakata Ramen Aizuna @ Jujo 20230801

Japanese>English

The sake was easy to drink, and lived up to its reputation for being "popular among women. The impression was of a mellow, fruity flavor that spread as soon as it entered the mouth. The sweetness does not persist, and in general, it is an easy-drinking sake that goes well with all kinds of food. (Cold sake is best).

甘くてヨーグルト風味。酸味と甘味が絶妙なバランスで楽しめる。軽やかな甘さでスイスイ飲めてしまう。

Have you all entered GW? I am starting tomorrow. Well, the father of the liquor store recommended this Yuto. It is a spring sake, but the label is not pink or something spring-like, but for some reason, it has a full moon. My own guess is that it comes from the haiku term "Haru-Manzuki," which means "full moon in spring. But it still looks like a hiyaoroshi. Lactic acidity from the top-tasting aroma. The mouthfeel is silky and light sweetness from the tangy gasiness, and the umami is jiggly. The aftertaste is full of lactic acidity, and the closing acidity and bitterness are robust. I thought it was a bit of a rush at the back of my throat, but it was only 17%. It is light, so you don't feel it too much, but it is quite heavy. If you don't think about the order in which you drink it, it might wipe out the taste of the next sake. Thank you very much for the drink!

Tasted at the traveling SAKE in Hankyu Department Store. The one on the right side of the photo. The rice is Gohyakumangoku. The description says it is dry, but it does not feel as dry as it says, and it has a nice sharpness. It seems to be good with food.

I always wanted to drink Tanaka Sentori. I was surprised at the quality of Sentori and the quality of and the quality of Tanaka Rokugo. Since then, 12 years have passed. I think about many things when I drink it. I can say this much. It's very tasty. While cheering for the baseball game While thinking about various things I enjoy it very much.

Fukuoka! So this is the Kyushu Brewery Shiraito Shuzo. It is different from the Tanaka Rokugo we just drank! Yeast is amazing. My subordinate, who came late, brought in some food. This is a must have for a night out in Fukuoka. Without it, I might not have been able to go home the next day.
