Denshu純米吟醸 古城乃錦純米吟醸

Y.Tokushige
Grape-like fruitiness, perhaps pulled by the purple color of the label. The acidity is gentle but lingering. There is a touch of alcohol, but combined with the acidity, it is easy to drink. Sake rice: 100% Kojo-Nishiki Polishing ratio→50 Alcohol content: 16%.

Tsukuba, and purchased directly from the Inaba Sake Brewery at the foot of Mt! Fruity and sweet, but also rich and umami, with a solid body. The sweetness and umami come from a light acidity. It has a light bitterness at the end, which makes it very easy to drink despite its sweetness and richness. Rice polishing ratio→50 Alcohol content→15%.

I went directly to the Inaba Sake Brewery at the foot of Mt! It is rich and umami, but also acidic, so it has a nice sharpness and a mild aftertaste. It is the first umami-style sake I have had in a long time, but it is an easy-drinking umami-style sake. Rice polishing ratio→55%. Alcohol content→15%.

Aomori souvenir! Thanks! The mouthfeel is dry. The acidity and umami come gradually, and there is a sense of fruity, but with a dry and alcoholic aftertaste, it is crisp and goes well with a meal. It is a great all-around sipper! Sake rice → 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio→55 Alcohol content→15%.

I bought it at a supermarket in Koriyama and had it at the hotel. It is a good Junmai sake with a slightly mellow flavor and a little bit of sweetness! Just right for a drink at a hotel on a business trip! Sake rice→100% Aizu rice Rice polishing ratio→65 Alcohol content→15%.

My favorite muscat-type aroma and flavor. I love it! Yum! It's called "classic" but it has a modern, light taste and beautiful sake quality. It has a great umami flavor! Sake rice: 100% special grade Yamadaho Rice polishing ratio→60 Alcohol content: 15 degrees Celsius

First green label in a long time. Little aroma, bluish bitter acidity. There is umami in it. The umami can be more easily felt if the temperature is not too low. Sharper than the impression I had when I drank it a few years ago. I am not sure if it is because of this year's production or if my tongue has dementia. Sake rice → Aomori rice Polishing ratio→Koji rice 55%, Kake rice 60 Alcohol content→ 16 degrees Celsius

Purchased at the Tsuruya Komoro store I couldn't find the exact same item even though I searched the web to see if it was a Tsuruya original. Immediately after opening and drinking it, I had a strong impression of sweetness, but when I drank the rest 4 days later, I didn't feel much sweetness and it was light and dry with a sense of alcohol and bitterness. I don't know if the taste changed, or if I perceived it differently, or both. Sake rice→100% Hitogochi from Nagano Prefecture Rice polishing ratio→59 Alcohol content→ 16 degrees Celsius

It has a gassy, fresh, refreshing sweet and sour taste. The low alcohol content makes it light and easy to drink. It's perfect as a summer food wine! The price is also reasonable and I have no complaints. I will buy it again next summer! Sake rice: 100% Gunma rice Rice polishing ratio→Koji rice 35%, Kake rice 60 Alcohol content→13 degrees Celsius

Mikotsuru山惠錦 Type R純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過

I bought a limited edition sake at Gokotsuru Sake Brewery! This is a test brew version of the Jungin Yamae Nishiki Type R. I don't know exactly what the difference is, nor do I know how it tastes compared to the regular Yamae Nishiki I've had before. I don't know what the difference is, and I don't know how it tastes different from the regular version I drank before. It is pleasantly fruity, with a clean minerality and a nice sweetness without any cloying flavor. It is a fruity wine that goes well with meals. Sake rice→100% Yamae-Nishiki Polishing ratio→50 Alcohol content: 16%.

I purchased a limited edition sake from the Mikotsuru Sake Brewery! The sake is said to be a blend of Junmai Ginjo and Junmai Daiginjo made from Yamadanishiki and laid to rest. The mouthfeel is soft and smooth. It has a complex, rich flavor, and is mellow and gorgeous. Is this the atmosphere of an expensive Junmai Daiginjo? The aftertaste leaves a pleasant bitterness from the sweetness. With tsumami, it is surprisingly refreshing with a touch of acidity, and the bitterness gives it a sense of sharpness. Sake rice → 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Azumino Polishing ratio→50 Alcohol content: 16%.

I bought this sake because it was said to be a light and not too sweet type of sake. It is certainly lighter and lighter and more refreshing than the Kafuda-shu I had previously, but it has a very clean quality and you can tell that the brewing water is very good. It has a pleasant citrus aroma and astringency, as well as a refined umami sweetness without any cloying taste. This is a very tasty modern light sake! Sake rice: 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio→40 Alcohol content→14%. Sake degree→+8

On my way back from Nagano, I stopped by Sasaichi Sake Brewery and bought some. It has a delicious rice flavor and sweetness with a bit of minerality. It's not too strong and it's just plain easy to drink. Sake rice→100% Yamanashi rice Rice polishing ratio→65 Alcohol content→15%.

I bought Masumi because I was on a business trip to Matsumoto and my stay was by Lake Suwa! The first sip has a lactic acidic flavor and acidity. The lingering aftertaste is not strong, so the sake goes down surprisingly well. It would be good with rich dishes. I compared it with "Urushikuro KURO," which I thought would be a variation of the same flavor, but they tasted quite different! Rice polishing ratio→55%. Alcohol content→15 Yeast → In-house strain of yeast No. 7

I bought Masumi because I was on a business trip to Matsumoto and my stay was by Lake Suwa! I thought it would be light and dry, but the first sip had a fruity feeling and a gentle umami sweetness. It has a nice sharp and light aftertaste, but it is closer to my favorite type than my personal image of light dry sake, which gives me a good impression. Rice polishing ratio→55%. Alcohol content→15 Yeast → In-house strain of yeast No. 7

Yum! It is delicious, inexpensive, and wonderful, even if it is an extravaganza! The aroma is subtle, with a hint of standing and lingering aroma. The mouthfeel is sharp, fresh, and light even when heated. Beautiful acidity and umami. It has a nice sharpness. It is treated as an ordinary sake because it is made from rice outside the standard range, but it is a delicious junmai sake made with Yamadanishiki produced by a contract farmer in Hirado! Sake rice→100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hirado Alcohol content→14%.
