Purchased at the Yamagata Antenna Shop in Ginza. It has a slightly sweet and sour rice aroma with a sharp taste. The taste is light and neutral. It is sweet and spicy with a refreshing acidity. It is perfect for drinking after a bath on a hot day. It is a junmai sake for summer that would be suitable for fireflies. I paired it with a bowl of rice topped with seafood, but it seems to go well with just about anything.

I went back home to Yamagata. Plump and fragrant, as if the best parts of the rice had been concentrated. It is mild. Slightly aromatic and dry, but round and gentle. Went well with grilled meat.

At a bar in Shinbashi. I've had a few Tengu Mai, but this may be my first time drinking ginjo. It was mostly junmai sake. Not fruity, but refreshing. It has a strong junmai character, and the sharpness of junmai sake has been polished. A junmai daiginjo that is perfect as a food sake.

Purchased at an antenna store in Ginza. The brewer is Chiyozu Toraya Co. I don't know why they don't have it. The aroma is subdued, but the core is full of rice. It doesn't have the freshness of a fresh sake, but this is the kind of sake Chiyozu is made of. The initial taste is sweet and somewhat sharp, but the richness typical of junmai sake develops in the aftertaste. The acidity and aromatic spiciness are quite unique.

At a bar in Shinbashi. A refreshing aroma of rice. Light, dry and crisp. A little sweetness in the aftertaste. I have had junmai nama-zake before, but it is totally different. I was surprised at how different it is depending on whether the sake is nama or hi-ire.

Purchased at a local supermarket. It has a lemon flavor. It has a unique refreshing taste, like a cocktail. It tastes like a daiquiri. It's like a daiquiri whose base is sake instead of rum. It might be quite addictive.

At a bar in Shinbashi. The previous one was junmai sake, but this time it had a gorgeous ginjo aroma. It is pear-like. Light and slightly sweet. The aftertaste is short. The sensation through the nose is sweet. It is interesting to see the individuality of the same brand of junmai-shu and ginjo-shu.

The end of March. I went to Yoyogi Park to wander around and found an outdoor event. They said that sake is recommended for outdoor activities. I wasn't planning to drink it, but I just had one glass. Mild aroma of alcohol. It also has a pear-like sweet aroma. It is slightly aromatic sweet and easy to drink. The alcohol content is low at 10 degrees, and it certainly looks good for outdoor activities. It was hot today, but drinking sake made it even hotter.
