I came on a trip to Nikko. Today we will enjoy nature such as Kegon Falls. You can also enjoy hot springs. The aroma is crisp, discreet, and sharp. It is a very light and dry wine with a tangy taste. It is quite refreshing.

Purchased at Yamagata Antenna Shop in Ginza. Sake by Chiyotsu Toraya Co. As I posted before, this sake brewer is not registered, unfortunately. It is different from Kotobuki Toraya Sake Brewery. It is light and dry with excellent sharpness. Sharp and perfect for a mid-meal drink.

As it is a travel sake, we purchased it at the Oishida station kiosk. It is made by Wada Shuzo, the same company that makes Aradama. The brand name was registered as Aradama. I love Aradama, so I have high expectations for it. Surprisingly? It has a fruity ginjo aroma. The taste is light and sweet. There is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. It is a good sake with a high degree of perfection.

Purchased at a store in front of Oishida Station. The label seems to have been designed by Kiyoyuki Okuyama, who designed Ferrari. The aroma is of refined alcohol, and it comes in easily. The taste is light and sweet. The alcohol taste is sweet and goes down your throat nicely. I was surprised to see that it was a regular sake. I was surprised that it was quite ginjo-like.

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.
