Kaiun was mentioned in a sake book I've been reading recently. It is a sake that is not often seen around here, but I happened to find a store that carried it. It had a fresh aroma that was typical of unfiltered sake, and in the mouth it was delicious with a good balance of its characteristic sweetness and acidity, and a refreshing aftertaste. I thought it was a delicious sake with a characteristic sweetness and well chilled. Today we had sauteed chicken and a prosciutto wrapped ham with strawberries and cream cheese, which the kids loved. It was delicious with sake. My daughter painter painted a picture of good luck opening.

I was happy to find a nearby store that carried Kaze no Mori and bought it. The sound of opening the bottle was like a pshush, and when I put it in my mouth, it tasted very refreshing with a fresh aroma, fruity sweetness, and a gaseous sensation. We enjoyed it with wasabi greens, a mountain vegetable we received from Yamagata, and cold tofu. Surprisingly, it went very well with sweet curry and fukujinzuke pickles.

Today we had a sake called Mimuro Sugi. It has a gorgeous aroma, a fruity taste, a gorgeous flavor in the mouth, and a clean finish. Can we say it was modern? It was a delicious fruity flavor that tasted great chilled. I thought the pasta was the best match among the Japanese soy sauce pasta, Western pot-au-feu, and fresh cherry tomatoes. It was delicious!

Today we had a Junmai Daiginjo from Juhachimori. The aroma is fruity and the mouth has a gorgeous daiginjo aroma, with a slight sourness and a strong richness in the finish. I grilled hokke for dinner, and it went very well with it.

Obuse Winery's sake, which I happened to find and was able to purchase, is said to be made with yeast #1. It has a gorgeous aroma and a refreshing aftertaste with acidity. It had a nice sharpness and would go well with both Japanese and Western food. When I used to live in Nagano, Obuse was all about chestnuts, wineries, and hot springs. I enjoyed this wine with nostalgic memories.

Today we had Sentori Modern. The aroma when just opened was banana-like, but when it entered the mouth, it had an elegant sweetness, a fresh aroma, a slight gassy feeling, and a refreshing aftertaste. It is very tasty.

This is a Junmai Ginjo from Momonosato that I bought at Akaban Shuzo. It has an elegant sweetness without any cloying taste and is delicious chilled. I tasted it well because I felt the richness at the end. Recently there have been many sweet sake, but I enjoyed a different taste from them.

Today I was able to stop by Akaban Sake Brewery and had some of their recommended freshly pressed, Momonosato Funakuchi. It is still pressed in the bag, so it is cloudy. It has a fruity aroma, and in the mouth you can taste sweetness and sourness. The alcohol is moderate at 14 degrees. It tasted fresh and delicious.
