It's a 50% polished sasasigure and is served as a summer sake.
I'm still not sure what a summer sake is yet, lol.
It has a sourness that I don't encounter very often, but I also sense a lingering bitterness.

I got an extra bottle of Honjozo! Thanks 🥲.
It seems to be a local runoff and it's pretty easy to drink, but not my type. It has a nice sharpness. It doesn't interfere with food, but perhaps too thin and doesn't bring out anything when paired with food? That's just my own feeling.

This is delicious!
I also use Ginbukiyo, and I quite like the taste.
It's a little sour, fresh, and fruity, but there's no weird carbonation, and I like it even when it's directly pumped!

I like this sake brewery, but there are not many in Toyama, so I feel like I can only drink it here.
It is on the dry side, which I like, and has a nice acidity.

Last summer drink of the day.
I guess there are a lot of blue or green themes.
This time, I'm going for dry rather than sweet. I didn't like it very much. Well, it had a nice feeling to it, but it wasn't impressive at all. It didn't go well with the food I ate, so I'd rather have a nice aftertaste than a sharp one. It's quite rare, though.

That was a summer sake sampler.
It was also delicious. However, it didn't have much personality and seemed to be the usual fresh sake that can be found anywhere.

There's a lot going on because the definition of summer wine hasn't been defined yet. This one has a little citrus flavor? I didn't really notice it. Well, normal?

I drank at Den-En.
This! It was very tasty! After all, Tateyama also makes delicious sake! No, it was really insanely delicious and I want to drink it again!

Lunchtime sake tasting
It was quite sour and according to my parents it has an acidity level of 6 or higher. I love acidity, but I didn't enjoy this one. I think it was intentional, but it's not for me.

Honami Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Harajuku Yamadanishiki
I rather like this sake even though it is Yamadanishiki, and I have no problem at all with refills. This year's Honami was pretty good, and I'm looking forward to next year's!

This is the best sake I've had from a yeast that is not some kind of sake. It's quite interesting, a little sweet with a nice acidity, even as a cold sake. But if you ask me if I can drink it all the time, I'm not so sure. But I think it's nice that you can go half a bottle at all, and it's something I'd ask for if I saw it. The charm of sake is that you can make good food even if you don't live in a sake-producing area.
By the way, I like Kagawa quite a bit and would like to go back!
