Purchased at a liquor store in Moji-ku When I looked closely at the date of manufacture, I found that it was one year old. (Just after opening the bottle) Drink it cold. Slightly yellow in color Slightly matured aroma. Very mellow and full-bodied on the palate. The sharpness of the taste is very sharp and the richness quickly fades away. A lingering, weak dryness lingers, but it does not last long. Goes well with chilled tofu and sashimi. I wonder how much a year has passed since its production has affected the taste. (6 days after opening the bottle). Warmed to lukewarm Sweet aroma with a hint of alcohol, similar to that of whiskey. It is delicious with a full-bodied flavor. To be heated The aroma is much more subdued than when lukewarm. The taste is very refreshing and different.

Drinking at Izakaya near Kashii Station First time to hear Hokkaido brands I enjoyed many Hokkaido snacks and drinks at this restaurant. Slightly chilled cold sake Transparent The nose is very mild, with a very slight classic aroma. In the mouth it has a delicious mellow richness with a slight dryness. Not sticky, leaving a tingling aftertaste. The taste is strong enough to be enjoyed with sashimi or Ezo-shika deer.

This brand has an image of good taste no matter what you drink. Drink cold sake Cloudy white color Unique aroma of rice Delicious rice flavor with juiciness spreads in the mouth. Slightly carbonated with a touch of petit carbonation. The taste quickly fades away. Slight bitterness in the aftertaste, but the aftertaste is refreshing. Goes well with sashimi and potato salad. The bitterness and dryness are noticeable when served warm, and it is definitely better served cold.

Drink cold Slightly sweet aroma Fullness with sweetness on the palate Weak dryness comes later. The taste quickly finishes. A refreshing mid-meal sake It is a sake that refreshes the palate rather than a sake that goes well with snacks. The label is cute.

Drink cold The aroma is very mild. Full-bodied with a slight bitterness on the palate Immediately it has a strong dryness that lingers for a while. The aftertaste is a little long. When served with shellfish and chanja, the spiciness and bitterness are offset, and the umami of the sake can be felt more. When served with sashimi and potato salad, it enhances the flavor of the snacks.

Purchased at a liquor store in Omiya, Tokyo (just after opening the bottle) Drink cold Clear and colorless. The aroma is sweet with little sense of maturity. Rich taste with sweetness in the mouth. Tingling dryness in the aftertaste. (The day after opening the bottle) Drink cold Tastes better chilled as the sweetness weakens compared to chilled Serve lukewarm As the label says, it tastes better with a deeper flavor. When heated, it tastes less full than lukewarm sake. Prefer it lukewarm, then chilled, in that order

Izakaya near Hakozaki Station Brands I have been interested in for a long time Drink cold Clear and colorless Slightly pineapple-like ginjo aroma Fresh and carbonated on the palate The taste is light and does not last long. The aftertaste is refreshing and full-bodied. It is easy to match with dishes such as sashimi, and it is good to drink as an aperitif. The low alcohol content makes it easy to drink.

Izakaya near Hakozaki Station A brand I've never seen before. The label was cute, so I ordered it. Mysterious, with no mention of the rice used to make the sake or the rice polishing ratio. Drink it cold Colorless and transparent Gorgeous aroma Rich and full-bodied on the palate Delicious with a wild taste like unfiltered sake The sharpness of the flavor is good and does not remain in the mouth for a long time. The aftertaste is quite short. The aftertaste is clean and easy to match with food in spite of its richness. The impression of richness and cleanness does not change even if it is warmed up.

Brands found at Yatai Zushi Drink cold Clear and colorless Slightly melon-like aroma In the mouth, it has a refreshing full-bodied flavor. The taste is more refreshing than the cloudy one. It is not so good when warmed up. It seems like the kind of sake you'd find in an izakaya (Japanese-style pub). Personally, I would rather drink beer or a highball if I had to pay for it.

Purchased at a liquor store near JR Ujima Station in Toyomae City It is said to be made from an ancient rice called "Short-stalked Boat", which is an ancestor of Yamada-Nishiki. (Just after opening the bottle) Drink it cold. Slightly cloudy white. Weak aroma similar to amazake. In the mouth, it has a sweet taste with a tingling sensation. Dryness spreads later. The lingering aftertaste is a little long. Warmed to lukewarm Sweet aroma and a strong smell of alcohol. The sweetness is the same in the mouth, but the dryness is stronger. To be heated hot The tangy smell of alcohol weakens considerably. The dryness weakens and it becomes easier to drink. Because the sweetness remains the same, it tastes better than cold or lukewarm sake. We paired it with sashimi and cheese at all temperatures, but it goes best with hot sake and cheese.

Purchased at a liquor store near Koga Station I asked what kind of sake goes well with sashimi and this is what was recommended Made with Koshihikari rice The label is stylish! (Just after opening the bottle) Drink it cold Very slight yellow color Contains many very fine bubbles Refreshing aroma with a light image. Strong juiciness and acidity in the mouth. A firm richness spreads in the mouth. Medium lingering finish Weak sweetness remains in the aftertaste. When warmed, the sharpness of the flavor increases, and it is better served cold. Goes well with salted octopus and Matsumae pickles. Very tasty. Warm to lukewarm Smells like alcohol. The sweetness is more pronounced than when served cold. A strong dryness soon appears. The aftertaste is very refreshing. Heat sake to hot. Smell of alcohol is weaker than when lukewarm. Not so good as it tastes very light. When cooled, it tastes dry and has little sweetness. When heated, it does not go well with snacks that go well with cold sake.

Obtained after being left for a long period of time in a refrigerator somewhere else. It is about 8 years old and I am concerned about the change in taste due to aging. Drink it cold Clear and colorless. The aroma is mild, but there is a slight hint of maturity. Aged richness similar to hiyaoroshi in the mouth. Hot sake Even paler than this year's production. In addition, the matured flavor can be felt even when the sake is heated, and it does not move in a positive direction. It does not move in a positive direction, so it may be more accurate to describe the taste as "aged" rather than "matured". I realized that just because it is aged does not necessarily mean it will be tasty.
