Kuroryu Junginjo Hareguchi
The aroma is gorgeous and elegant, like pineapple.
It has a medium-bodied, clean flavor. The taste slowly expands and bitterness follows.
The aftertaste is a little long.
It is enjoyable to savor for a long time 🥰.

Sairai Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Usukiri
The second of two bottles I bought.
Aroma like pear 🍐.
Sweet, gassy and fresh.
The umami spreads a little later. Then the complexity at the end,
I think it's different from the last one.
I think it was right to buy two bottles.
It's really delicious no matter what time you drink it 🥰.

The aftertaste is also refreshing and the overall flavor is light 🥰.

Kangiku OCEAN 99 Series Shiraginoumi Snow Sea Nigori Unfiltered Nama-shu Junmai Daiginjo
The aroma has an acidity like that of ramune.
It is not so much a warning to open the bottle, perhaps because it has been left for a while.
When you drink it, the sweet and sourness comes rushing in like a wave.
The gasiness gives you an image of waves crashing on top of each other. The sweetness is firm but the aftertaste is short. The alcohol content is 13%. It's really easy to drink and delicious 🥰.

Shinshu Kamerei Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-jyu Hitogochi from the terraced rice fields of Inakura
Sake I've always wanted to try.
This is a product that will be on priority sale to Hanpukai members at the sake shop starting this month 🥰.
We're so excited to open the bottle 👍.
Actually, I accidentally tipped it when I was replacing it the other day😱.
I hope it's ok because it spilled 🥲.
It has an elegant aroma like muscat.
It's gassy and sweet and delicious all at once. It's fresh and vibrant 🤗.
I think I can feel the second wave of spiciness and bitterness when I feel the sharpness is good.
Easy to drink, not at all like the 16% alcohol content 🥰.

寫楽 Junmai Ginjyo Nagoshizake - One time heating
When we think of 寫楽, the overall image is one of sweetness.
If you think so...
The sweetness is definitely present in the aroma. But it is mild and refreshingly fruity.
Even when you drink it, the sweetness is still mild. It has a matured feeling. The umami is strong. Bitterness that can be felt afterwards. And it's really delicious with a nice sharpness.
And then I thought about the heated Bizen Omachi sake we had the other day.
This was also...
So I warmed it up to lukewarm.
It has a warm and gentle aroma.
It has a deeper umami, matured and sweeter taste than cold sake.
Maybe it's better warmed...
I'll try raising the temperature a little more today 😆.
