Tenbi "Junmai Ginjyo Nama-no-Harajyu (White Heaven) Brewer: Choshu Shuzo Co. Rice type: Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol: 15%. Yeast: 901 The one I've always wanted to drink! I finally got it. It has a white wine-like acidity and sweetness, and a fresh aroma reminiscent of citrus fruits that makes it gorgeous. The mouthfeel is clean and light, making it easy to pair with food. The gas and alcohol sensations are well felt, but it seems to mellow with time, so we look forward to the changes in flavor.

Abe Shuzo "Abe Junmai Ginjo Silver Label Brewery: Abe Shuzo Co. Polishing ratio 60  Abe Silver Label" is the standard junmai ginjo from the popular Niigata sake brewery Abe Shuzo. The Abe series has a low distribution volume, but we received a bottle of the newest sake pressed in October of this year.  The flavor seems to differ slightly depending on the lot in which it is made, but I drank the vol. 1 one. When I opened the bottle, the lid opened vigorously like champagne, and when I poured it out, a slightly effervescent, slightly cloudy sake came out.  It was a mild sake with a fruity aroma like melon, refreshing sweetness and acidity, and a slight carbonation that was pleasant.

Abe Sake Brewery "Abe Original Sake Brewery: Kashiwazaki City, Niigata Prefecture Strength: 18%. Many people may be familiar with sake written in hiragana "Abe," but this one is written in kanji "Abe" by the same Abe Shuzo brewery. It has a mountain-blue hue with a sense of maturity, but it tastes clean and refreshing. It is high in alcohol content and has an aged aroma that reminds us of whiskey, so we personally recommend drinking it on the rocks.

This sake is characterized by its mellow, sweet, tropical, juicy taste. The refreshing acidity and clean aftertaste make it easy to drink.  In the sake kingdom of Niigata, where the majority of sake is light and dry, this sake is a stir for those who prefer dry sake.

A Japanese nightingale in the garden, Shunyo Brewery: Yamaguchi Shuzo Brewery, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture Rice used: Shunyo  This sake is made from low-protein rice called Shunyo, which has a low full-bodied flavor and is quite refreshing and easy to drink. It is also a sake that produces the "4mmp" aroma component that has been attracting attention in the sake market in recent years, giving it a refreshing sweetness and acidity that is reminiscent of muscat aroma and white wine.

Gikyo "Junmai Genshu 70% Specially Cultivated Rice Brewery:Yamachu Honke Sake Brewing Company, Aisai City, Aichi Prefecture Rice used: Yamadanishiki (Tojo, Hyogo Prefecture, special A district) Polishing ratio 70%.  Although the label looks like the title of a chivalrous movie, there are no strong characteristics in the aroma or taste, and it is rather delicate, with a calm and soothing flavor. It has a sweet taste at first, and then the alcohol taste leaves the nose and you can taste the umami of the rice.  Incidentally, gikyo (chivalry) is said to mean to respect justice, to discourage the strong, and to help the weak.  The interesting thing about this sake is that it is sold wrapped in ordinary newspaper. The meaning is said to be to block sunlight, but it is very eye-catching, and the newspaper is a fun way to relive the memories of the day.
