Tateyama is a light sake, which is rare in Toyama, and even when hiyaoroshi (hiyayoshi) is served, it still has that refreshing feeling. However, the junmai-like rice and lactic acid flavors are well expressed, which is certainly a characteristic of Toyama sake. Pear, muscat, acacia, green bamboo, white dumpling, fresh cream, lime

It has a golden color and a mellow mouthfeel that is typical of low-polished rice. The caramel and white peach-like sweetness are in harmony with each other, and the robustness of the wine is unbeatable even when served with strong dishes such as umami-rich blue fish or fried chicken. Caramel, white peach, lychee, cypress, lime, cooked rice, yogurt

Sake made from Yamaguchi Prefecture's sake brewing rice, Saito no Shizuku. It is not often seen, so I bought it without a second thought. The rich fruity aroma, reminiscent of a sparkling but unpasteurized sake, is well balanced with the robust rice flavor of a special pure sake. The acidity is moderate and smooth. White peach, lychee, freshly pounded rice cake, honeysuckle, lime, slight hint of cypress.

The balance between aroma and sweetness is very good. The fruity aroma typical of ginjo, the creamy, sweet aroma of junmai-derived apricot jelly, the creaminess of the oyster ponzu, and the citrusiness of the ponzu go together perfectly. Muscat, white peach, apricot, lime, green bamboo, apple

It's a very rich sake, almost the opposite of Kurobekyo by Kokoku Shuzo, which I drank the other day even in the same prefecture of Toyama. But I like it. When I was drinking it at an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) in Toyama, a local told me that people who like Sanjoraku are perverts. It is the exact opposite of the fruity, light, refreshing, and easy-to-drink sake that is so popular these days. It's great. LOL! It has a gutsy taste with a gentle and soft lactic acidity typical of Yamahai, and there is no strange lingering taste on the tongue. However, it has a long aftertaste, and although there is a slight bitterness, it may be the reverse of the umami of the original sake. There is a fruity aroma typical of nama-shu, and even though it is 65% polished rice, I picked up a slight apple aroma. Is it from the yeast? I am not sure and am somewhat confused. Hinoki, apple, muscat, white peach, melon, cooked rice, cream, lime. Slightly mushroom.

It has a deliciously mellow flavor that reminds one of a Toyama sake, with a low acidity and a nice sharpness. It has a complex aroma of fruit and flowers, which makes you think it is a Junmai Daiginjo. White peach, melon, muscat, white dumpling, green bamboo, acacia, and mushroom.

It is probably one of the best sake for cosmetic purposes. The aroma is so rich that it is hard to believe that it is a fire-aged honjozo sake. I was again impressed by the balance of the No. 7 yeast. White peach, melon, freshly pounded rice cake, hinoki cypress, honeysuckle

It has a good balance between the floral aroma and rice flavor typical of nama-shu junmai ginjo, while retaining just the right amount of Omachi. As expected. I like the firmness of junmai omachi, but I think this is a typical Sharaku omachi. Green bamboo, acacia, Kamishinko, lime, and apricot.

It doesn't say "Nama-shu" on the label, but I wonder if it is Nama-shu. It has a lot of fruitiness that is typical of nama-shu. I also like the firmness and riceiness typical of junmai. Muscat, white peach, melon, lime Cooked rice

The unnatural and deliberate apple aroma, which is typical of cellulosic yeast, is the first thing that comes to my mind, and I don't like it. The bitterness is also strong and unbalanced... If the balance is like this in a draft sake, it would be more stable if it were hi-ire, as the unnaturalness of the yeast would settle down. This is the first locally brewed sake to appear in Hakodate in a long time, so I hope it will help boost the area.

Firm and strong first impression typical of Toyama. Elegant sweetness and gentle acidity. The balance is rich and deep, with a long aftertaste. The discreet assertion of rice derived from Gohyakumangoku, the intense muscateliness derived from nama-shu, and the elegant sweet flavor from junmai-ginjo are in perfect harmony. Muscat, acacia, white bean dumplings, apricot pudding, green bamboo, lime

It's a raw sake, but at 15%, it's not too heavy. The aroma of muscat and white peach, typical of nama-shu, is accompanied by the scent of junmai jyoshinko, and the aroma of sweet apricot curd is felt later. Muscat, white peach, joshin-doufu, apricot pudding, lime. Slightly green bamboo

I bought it at a department store where the brewery was having a tasting event. It was 100% Omachi, although it was not clearly stated. The brewery is said to be the one that started the reintroduction of Omachi cultivation. The acidity is really clear, so I served it with fried oysters and tartar sauce. Even so, it has a solid taste of Omachi + Namo yeast that does not lose out. The acidity is very strong, like yogurt, but you can easily pick up the ginjo aroma if you are aware of it. However, the ginjo aroma is not strong and is slightly like banana and green bamboo. Although it is a junmai ginjo, it has won a gold medal for heated sake, so we tried heating it to lukewarm. The acidity from the sake's origins weakened and the sweetness of the junmai and the omachi flavor came to the fore. The ginjo aroma has completely disappeared. The bitterness has also appeared, so it would be better to warm it up to very lukewarm. In conclusion, it would be well-balanced to drink it at around 12 degrees. Yogurt, white bean dumplings, mushrooms, hinoki cypress banana, green bamboo

Sake with a robust rice flavor typical of Hyogo. The extremely pure rice-like rice flavor and the lactic acidity derived from Yamahai are well balanced, and while the taste is firm, it has a dessert-like sensuality that makes it easy to drink. There is almost no fruity aroma derived from the popular yeast, but a soft and fluffy sweetness like that of white dumplings or apricot bean curd. The acidity is moderate, but the flavor has a core, so it can be paired with umami-rich snacks. However, if you enjoy it with appetizers with strong lactic acidity such as rice-bran paste, tofu, or cheese before a meal, you will be able to get drunk even more comfortably. It would be an overstatement to say that this sake embodies the orthodox evolution of traditional sake, but I would like to give it that much praise. Apricot pudding, white bean dumplings, mushrooms Lime, Hinoki (Japanese cypress)

The aroma of Yamadanishiki is clear and easy to recognize, although I was too drunk to detect the fine aroma. I like that there is no deliberate ginjo aroma. I was impressed by the balance between the not-too-strong mouthfeel and the strong flavor, which is typical of low-alcohol sake breweries in Nara.
