After returning home, I wondered what to drink and chose "Karahashi" by Homare Shuzo, which I had never had a chance to drink before! It is a junmai ginjo made from Omachi.
The first sip gives the impression of sweetness with no sourness. As you continue drinking, the spiciness comes out and the trinity of sweetness, umami, and spiciness comes together, which is just the right balance and delicious.
There are other sake rice varieties in the Karahashi series besides Omachi, so you have to try them 😆.

It is fruity, but you can also feel the taste of rice. The aftertaste is clean and this is drinkable.

Karahashi label by Homare Sake Brewery. Unfiltered unpasteurized sake made from sake rice Yume no Kou.
Fruity ginjo aroma. The aroma of melon and sweetness, followed by a slight sourness and bitterness, finally fading away with a slight spiciness.
Although it is unfiltered raw, there is no bitterness or peculiarity, and the impression is of a soft, sweet, umami taste.
After a few days of drinking, the balance between sweet and spicy has improved.
It is a delicious sake that is so easy to drink that it makes you want to drink more and more. ☺️
