Sake on the left in the photo Image of red wine, rich acidity. Seems to go well with steak. They used black malted rice that was used for Awamori in Okinawa.

It has moderate acidity and a soft mouthfeel. The sake rice used is "Shizuku Ehime," an improved version of the "Matsuyama Mitsui" variety produced in Ehime Prefecture. It is said to be a variety with larger grains and improved sake brewing aptitude.

The carbonation is amazing. Also the pear aroma and mouthfeel. It feels like you can drink as much as you want. Delicious.

The name "Juanshu" comes from the division of Hokkaido into 11 provinces during the Meiji Era (1868-1912). The brewer's wish is to make it a representative sake of Hokkaido. It is delicious.

This is delicious. I found the following commentary. This is a dry honjozo sake with excellent sharpness, carefully brewed without cutting corners in every step of the process. Like Junmai sake, it is stored at -5 degrees Celsius for thorough quality control. It is a cost-effective accompaniment to any dish, from cold sake to heated sake.

Too light and simple. Not much impact? Commentary. A daily junmai sake from Osaka's first all junmai brewery, Akishika Shuzo, one of the best junmai breweries in the Kansai region. The alcohol content is kept a little low, so you won't get tired of drinking it. Can be served cold or warmed.

It was a strange taste. It is fruity, but also has a spicy image. They use soft water that flows from the Southern Alps into the Oi River. This seems to be a sake only available in the prefecture. Commentary. Carefully selected sake rice is polished to 65% and used as koji rice and in the first and second stages of the three-stage brewing process, while Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture is used in the third stage to further enhance the sake quality. The sake is brewed at a low temperature, which gives it a refreshing ginjo aroma. Honjozo] Sake rice: Kiyonishiki produced in Yamagata Prefecture, and rice for clasping: Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture. Polishing ratio: ALL 65

It had a light taste. The "Nakadori" means that only the middle part of the pressing is taken out and bottled, so the bitterness and astringency are suppressed and the taste is elegant. It is delicious.

Commentary. The rice used for this sake is the standard Kaze no Mori rice, Akitsuho, grown in Nara Prefecture and polished to 65%. This is a limited edition brewed with Nara rice and Nara yeast, aiming for a new world of Kaze no Mori. Kaze no Mori basically uses yeast No. 7, but this is the first time Kaze no Mori has used a special yeast called "Yamanokami yeast. Yamanokami Yeast is a flower yeast unique to Nara Prefecture that was collected in the spring of 2012 from sasa lilies in the sacred grounds of the Ogami Shrine in Miwa, Nara Prefecture. It is named after the Yamanokami site, located west of Mt. Miwa, where ancient sake vessels were excavated. The deep aroma that evokes forest trees produced by the Yamanokami yeast, the thick flavor that intertwines the complex five tastes unique to Kaze no Mori, and the minerality derived from the ultra-hard brewing water. These elements come together to create a one-of-a-kind flavor that is distinctly Kaze no Mori, yet has a distinctly new vibe." It tastes like Kaze no Mori, but with a slimy sensation, and this is the difference in yeast? It is delicious, it does not betray.

Commentary. This is a regular sake for the Kido brand. The initial aroma is subdued. The mild mouthfeel is followed by a gentle umami taste and a lingering crisp, flowing finish. The gentle ginjo aroma is floral. The acidity and umami taste spreads and recedes moderately, making it a "relaxing" style sake that will naturally lead you to have another cup or two with your meal. It is indeed mild and very easy to drink. It is delicious.

Commentary. Izumihashi Shuzo of Kanagawa and Nishida Shuzo of Aomori collaborated to brew a set of junmai daiginjos by exchanging their respective sake rice! The sake rice is transported to each brewery as brown rice, and brewed at 50% using each company's own rice milling machine. Each bottle is decorated with a famous painting, with the Tazake bottle depicting Van Gogh's "Grandpa Tanguy" and the Izumibashi bottle depicting René Magritte's "Child of Man. Tasake's usual fruity flavor is a bit thin and highly stimulating.

Description. "From 寫樂, a famous sake brewed in Aizuwakamatsu, Fukushima Prefecture, comes a limited edition Junmai Ginjo Akaban Omachi Nama Sake. It is made from 50% polished Akaban Omachi, a brand-name sake rice produced in the Akaban area of Okayama Prefecture. This junmai ginjo sake is carefully brewed and bottled in its unpasteurized state. The strong sweetness is reminiscent of ripe fruit, and the aroma is somewhat refreshing. The mouthfeel is smooth, and the concentrated, dense extract fills the palate. The three-dimensional texture is a mixture of umami and sweetness, and the acidity that seems to seep out gradually forms a complex depth. After swallowing, you will feel a light and beautiful lingering aftertaste, which gradually finishes off nicely. This is a gem that beautifully expresses the rich flavor and complexity that only high quality Omachi can offer. We recommend comparing this sake with "寫樂 Junmai Ginjo Bizen Omachi Nama Shu" released at the same time. We hope you will enjoy this once-a-year taste." It is not smooth, but you can feel the aftertaste. But delicious.

This is delicious. I had no idea there was such a fruity sake in Shiga. The description reads, "This is a limited-edition "Sho Shiki" brewed using a high malic acid-producing strain on a trial basis. The rich acidity with a soft mouthfeel harmonizes with the rich umami and sweetness to give a strong, bright flavor." That was true.

It really has a sweet and tender taste. It is brewed in a four-stage process, adding more rice to the normal three-stage brewing process. I compared it with Bakuren's super dry sake, but I prefer this one.
