Shizuoka Sake Tour. Gotemba's Kinmei Ryotama Junmai Ginjo, alc.16%. When served in the refrigerator, it has a subtle cider-like aroma. The aroma does not change much in the mouth, and after the alcohol and weak acidity, the umami of rice comes easily. The aftertaste is stimulated by alcohol, but it is not an unpleasant attack, but rather a strange numbing sensation and heat. There is no significant change even when the temperature is set to room temperature. Should we wait a few days? Two days later, the alcoholic stimulation has disappeared, and the umami of the rice has become noticeably mellower. The aroma is still cider-like, so the overall impression is that it is a cross between sake and mead. This is good.

Rice used is unknown. According to the owner of the sake shop, the sake is aged for three years, but there is no strong sense of aging, and it is a dry junmai-shu with a good acidity. It is a dry junmai-shu with a lot of acidity. The sweetness that spreads fluently and the spicy astringency in the latter half are very unique. After a few days, it becomes more crisp and easy to drink. For my taste, I'd like to have more of a woody or smoky flavor. Either way, it's not a type that will appeal to everyone. The mainstay of this brewery is Yamahai brewing, so it will be interesting to see how peculiar it is.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild and reserved Crisp, pungent and refreshing on the palate.

Maizuru Shuzo, Akita Prefecture Freshly brewed Junmai Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol content 15 Sake meter degree +5 Acidity 1.7 Amino acidity 1.8 Yeast: Association No. 701 Slightly hazy pale yellow color The first impression of the aroma is of plump rice banana, almond, rice cake, slight smoke, gently spicy at the end The first impression on the palate is mellow and powerful. Full, rounded sweetness, gentle acidity, mild bitterness Overall, the balance of the wine is round and tasty, but not cloying. The lingering finish is rather long. When heated, it changes from almond to cacao, giving it a nice richness. Personally, I like to drink it at room temperature. I think it can be used with anything cooked or stewed. I would choose it when I want to eat simmered dishes. Oden looks pretty good.

Finally opened a bottle of sake I bought in Otaru the year before last. It is delicious with a soft, sweet mouthfeel, followed by a beautiful acidity that leaves a clean aftertaste of umami and acidity.

Japanese>English

Tasty mouthfeel with a touch of dryness Aroma: Fruity, smooth attack. Taste: Dry and almost umami. It goes in smoothly and is light and full-bodied. This sake brewery brews dry Manotsuru. They also make this kind of sake 🤣.

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku. I bought it at the end of last year at an antenna store in Toyama. I didn't know about this brand. The color is a light amber. The color is pale amber, and the flavor is just as it should be. It's relatively easy to drink because it's crisp and not overpowering, but it didn't seem to suit my partner who likes floral and sweet flavors. It didn't match well with the grilled chicken, but I think it will swell up with time, so I'll leave it for a while. It's quite a unique sake, and I don't dislike it!

Japanese>English

I have had Taitozan before, but I don't remember much about it, so I bought it for the first time in a while. It has a slightly astringent white wine-like aftertaste with almost no sweetness. I think it is best to drink it with fish dishes, which is a standard white wine. Since it is winter from now on, yellowtail and radish would be delicious. I, of course, drink it only with sake.

The first drink at Ishininkin in front of Toyama Station. It is dry but not too strong.

A 1-goupe bottle that I had gotten at Yamada-san, a sake dealer in Ikebukuro Seibu. I check the small refrigerator near the cash register, which is mainly small bottles, every time I go there. It is Kamerei Mannen from Hiroshima🐢. The classical texture gives it a ginjo-shu feel.
