Polishing ratio: Koji rice 60%, Kake rice 70%. ALC : 13%. Yeast : Hiroshima Prefecture yeast As it is called "sea-food," it is designed to go well with seafood. The refreshing acidity derived from white malted rice gives it a citrus-like aroma and taste. Excellent with oysters in oil. It is also perfect for meuniere and other dishes.

原料米:滋賀県竜王町産米 精米歩合:65% ALC15% 使用酵母:蔵付酵母 蔵付酵母を使って生酛造りで醸した、まさに原点に立ち返って作ったお酒。 麹や蒸米を桶に入れ、蔵人が山卸をしてつくっているのでかなり手間がかかっているに違いない。 香りは甘くミルキー臭がします。乳酸由来の酸味とドライフルーツのような熟した甘味があるけれども、どこか爽やかな味わい。 木香が若干あるけれどもそれが熟成酒のような重厚感を演出していて良い。

Rice used:Gohyakumangoku (all) ALC: 13%. Kido's low-alcohol junmai ginjo. It has a light mouthfeel, but the umami and sweetness are well developed, while the finish is crisp, making it a good choice for beginners. It is good on its own or with food. I chose this as my first drink, and I think it was a good decision.

Rice used: Yamadanishiki (Koji rice), Gohyakumangoku (Kake rice) Polishing ratio 55 ALC: 16%. This sake is also offered on ANA's international first-class flights. The initial aroma is elegant and sugary. In the mouth, it tastes sweet like molasses and sweet potato, with a slight pickle-like aroma, which later turns into astringency. However, it is not a negative thing, and all the flavors are expressed as elegant taste. Personally, I think it is a delicious but tiring sake, so I would just drink it after one or two glasses of another sake. If you want to match it, meuniere or shellfish dishes are good.

Sawaya Matsumoto "Morihate Gohyaku Mangoku Nama Sake Rice used:Gohyakumangoku(whole) ALC: 15%. Sawaya Matsumoto "Mori-Barai" from Kyoto. The meaning of the phrase is to keep the traditions that should be kept, but to break with traditions and put into practice what they have learned from other places. The fresh citrus aroma spreads from the top aroma, and the silky mouthfeel and citrus aroma spread more and more on the palate. The aftertaste is slightly bitter and the acidity builds up a beautiful sake quality. White meat fish would be a good match.

It has a yogurtiness like pear or calpis, and the balance between the spread of sweetness and the acidity that tightens the aftertaste is very good. May go well with French and Italian cuisine.

Hara Shuzo/Koshinohomare 90YELLOW Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu Rice used: Hazuki Minori (produced in Kashiwazaki City and Kariwa Village, Niigata Prefecture) Polishing ratio: 90 Purchased at the Hara Sake Brewery's new sake festival. The 90 (Kyumaru) series is made with 90% polished rice to take advantage of the local Kashiwazaki rice. Hazukiminori is rice rice, not sake rice, but it has a fresh fruitiness like grapefruit or pineapple with a sweet acidity and a piquant gasiness. It has a gorgeous flavor that can be enjoyed on its own, but the aftertaste is rather refreshing, so it is good as a mealtime sake without being boring.

Hasegawa Sake Shop/ Tokyo Station Brewery Doburoku Brewery:Tokyo Station Brewery Alc: 7%, Brewing: Tokyo Station Sake Brewery Rice used: Yamadanishiki, Nanatsuboshi  Doburoku, available for a limited time only at Hasegawa Sake Shop in Gransta Tokyo, is made at the brewery inside Tokyo Station. The blue label is a basic doburoku, but there are also other fruit doburoku such as mango flavor, mandarin orange, and apple, and the ability to create a variety of flavors is a unique attraction of doburoku.  It has a fruity, grape-like aroma, but with less sweetness, and the fine, slightly effervescent bubbles surround the palate with a mellow, smooth taste. Since it is doburoku, the rice grains are still present, but they have a rough, powdery texture rather than a crumbly feel, and the texture is smooth and silky.
