きりんAwaji Original Sake This is what we call "Genshu"! It has a great alcohol taste with a lot of gusto. It is more than sweetness and flavor, it is a strong statement that it is sake. The sensation of slight heat from the throat to the esophagus to the stomach is exactly like drinking sake. It is so strong that it cannot be countered by sashimi, tofu, or other such gentle accompaniments. I would like to drink it heated with oden or simmered dishes.

きりんJikin Special Junmai Nama The aroma is mild, but the sweetness of the rice spreads quickly in the mouth. It is easy to drink and is suitable as a food sake, which explains why it is often found in bars.

きりんSawanotsuru Nada no Nama Ippon Junmai Sake The aroma is high, and when you take a sip, the fruity sweetness that surpasses the aroma spreads quickly on the palate. Although it is a junmai sake, it has a lightness similar to that of a daiginjo, but at the same time it is very easy to drink with a robust umami flavor. Strangely enough, after two or three sips, it tastes more like a robust junmai sake than the first impression. I wonder if it is a matter of the temperature. I would recommend it to those who are drinking junmai sake for the first time! I recommend this sake to those who want to drink junmai sake for the first time. I served it with crab miso today. The smell of crab miso goes well with sake.

きりんHarushika Junmai Sake Umakuchi four-stage brewing It has a much lighter and gentler flavor than one might expect from a junmai sake. There is no unpleasant alcohol smell, and yet it is not overly refined, and has a nice, clean taste that makes it a very good mid-meal sake. It is a good sake for people who are not used to drinking junmai sake, as it will change their image of junmai sake. I wonder why it is so light even though the rice polishing ratio is 70. It is extremely delicious.

きりんShonosato Kita Series Junmai Namaisake Much smoother and tastier on the palate than I had imagined from the label. It is a strange sake that passes smoothly on the tongue, and one can only taste the umami without stimulating any part of the palate. I feel that because the sake tastes so good, it would be better with a side dish that doesn't interfere too much with the taste, but I also feel that this sake is the kind of sake that accepts strong, dark flavors.

きりんNishinomon Junmai Daiginjo Hitogokochi Unfiltered Namaisatsurai It has a sweet aroma like a fruit wine. While there is a sweetness that does not betray the aroma, the original zing of the sake is enjoyable to the nose. When cold, it has a strong fruit-like sweetness, and as it approaches room temperature, it seems to become a sweet rice flavor. I would like to drink it with nuts, cheese, carpaccio, or something along those lines.

きりんdrunken whale junmai ginjo Ginrei Nama Shu The aroma is gorgeous and amazing. Despite the gorgeous aroma, the first sip has a punchy alcohol taste that is very good with a gap. It is fruity but has a nice alcoholic smell, giving the image of a sake where you can enjoy the aroma in your mouth. It goes well with sashimi, but it would also be delicious with oden and other savory dishes.

きりんHakurakusei Junmai Ginjo Namaishu When it was poured, it was cloudy! It's cloudy! I was surprised. The aroma is a little weak. The aroma is a little weak, but the sweetness that spreads in the mouth is very good. It is easy to drink while still having a sake smell, and the sweetness that is inherent in sake is very strong. I think it goes very well with sashimi, tofu, and other mild-flavored food. This time, I served it with grilled ginkgo nuts.

きりんShinkame Junmai Sake Strong aroma. This is what sake is all about. It has a strong aroma, and the mellowness and richness do not betray the aroma. It has a strong peculiarity, so it may not be for everyone, but I think it would go very well with stewed dishes or meaty food. If you drink a little bit of it, the sake will slowly circulate through your body, making you feel light-headed and intoxicated.

きりんImanishi Junmai Ginjo Asahi Unfiltered Nama-zake It has a very gentle and delicious taste. The first sip is fruity and easy to drink, but as you get used to drinking it, you will slowly taste the rice flavor. I think it goes well with anything, but the nameko mushrooms I ordered with it went very well with it.

きりんTosa no Okyaku Unfiltered Junmai-shu Pair it with oden (Japanese stew). It is lighter than one would expect from the rice polishing ratio, and although it has a slight acidity, it is gentle on the palate. However, after swallowing, there was a strong sensation of warmth from the alcohol spreading into the esophagus. I thought it would go well with oden, but I was right. It is very tasty.
