Izakaya near the grapevine #2 Drink cold sake Sweet aroma Rice flavor with sweetness on the palate. The dryness appears immediately after the saké, but it quickly intensifies. The dryness is noticeable when the sake is on its own. When paired with salty snacks such as kanpachi vinegared miso or chicken sashimi, the dryness is reduced considerably and the sweetness increases. Good as an in-between-dinner drink

Purchased at a liquor store in Haruyoshi, Fukuoka City (just after opening the bottle) Drink cold Clear and colorless Classic aroma The palate is full of matured and robust umami. Immediately after the umami taste, the taste is sharp. There is almost no dryness in the aftertaste, and the finish is clear. As the back label says, it has a very light and refreshing taste. When paired with tuna tataki, it washes away the fishy smell and complements the flavor of the side dish very well. It is a very fast flavor that quickly becomes sharp and is a great food sake, and quite distinctive! As it has been produced for more than 6 months, the aroma and taste may be affected.

Purchased at a supermarket Gekkeikan had been on my mind for a long time because of my impression of packaged sake (right after opening the bottle) Drink cold Mellow ginjo aroma. A strong umami flavor in the mouth. Brilliant, with a strong sharpness. Not too dry, with a clear aftertaste. Pair it with sashimi, but you don't feel much pairing. Seems to be good with French and Italian cuisine. Warmed to lukewarm The aroma is very strong. The sweetness is quite pronounced. Even if it is heated, the sweetness is still strong. Tastes better cold.

a gift from a friend (just after opening the bottle) Drink chilled Slightly yellow in color and cloudy. A few fine bubbles on the inside of the glass. Aroma with a sense of maturity. Delicious in the mouth with a sense of weight and richness. There is no impression of aging at all. There is a slight sweetness in the aftertaste, but it is not sticky and refreshing. Overall, it has a classic flavor, but is easy to drink. Warmed to lukewarm The enhanced matured aroma is a little harsh. The taste is fuller, with a weak acidity and dryness. To be served hot The strong smell of alcohol lingers in the nose. The taste is a little lighter than lukewarm, but not too dry. When served cold, it does not go well with sashimi, but when heated, it becomes easier to pair with sashimi.

Izakaya located north of Fukuoka Airport A bit of a walk, but I was attracted by the many variations of chicken sashimi and the large selection of sake. Slightly chilled cold sake It is cloudy white. Mellow sweetness in the mouth Slightly carbonated The sake itself is delicious, but the sweetness is so strong that it does not complement the accompaniments, so it is best to pair it with accompaniments that are not overpowered by the strong flavor.

Sake from Tokushima Prefecture, which is not often encountered. Even when searching for "sake-no-wa", the brand name still does not come up as a search candidate. Drink it cold Colorless and transparent It has a delicious sweetness and fruity richness in the mouth. The taste is crisp and clean. Almost no dryness. The aftertaste has a slight sweetness similar to sugar, but it is not sticky at all. It can be easily paired with cream cheese, etc., but the dryness increases when paired with snacks.

Cold sake to drink Almost colorless and transparent Weak ginjo aroma similar to melon On the palate, it is very tasty, with a gorgeous, robust richness. The taste is immediately sharp but not dry. When cold, I couldn't believe that it was an unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake, but as it warms up, I can taste it. It has a strong flavor, but it is easy to match with prepared foods such as cream cheese.

Purchased at a liquor store near Chidori Station Wrapped in newspaper after purchase and stored at room temperature in a dark place at home for one year to mature (Immediately after opening the bottle) Slightly yellow in color. The aroma has a pronounced aged aroma. Mellow and rich taste derived from the aging process in the mouth. The taste is immediately sharp. The dryness is almost imperceptible. When heated lukewarm, the aroma of maturity increases and the taste becomes more peculiar, so it is not good. When heated, the flavor becomes bland. It goes better with salty meat dishes such as ham than sashimi or simmered dishes. When compared to the other two Kuroyûs, it has a noticeable quirkiness, but when considered as a stand-alone sake, it tastes similar to hiyaoroshi, which is not a bad thing. Compared to the Aki-agari, it shows how difficult it is to properly mature sake.

Purchased at a liquor store near Chidori Station Sake brewery aged sake the right way (just after opening the bottle) Strong ginjo aroma with fruity notes. Sake has a robust flavor on the palate. The fruity flavor comes later, but the taste quickly quiets down. When warmed to lukewarm, it has a stronger aroma and full-bodied flavor than regular Kuroryu. It is also delicious as a heated sake. When compared to sake that has been aged for a year at home, it is clear that the sake brewery has the skill and experience to age their sake well.
