Toyobijin限定純米吟醸 醇道一途 酒未来

The clarity of the color. It looked good just pouring it, but holy crap...! The acidity is moderate. It's fruity, the flavor spreads, and there's no miscellaneous taste. And yet, the aftertaste is also fruity! This is the best sake I've ever had! I know I say it every time, but this is really good!

I drank the summer-only one the other day and thought it had a strong sourness that I didn't really like, but this one is more about the spread of the umami than the sourness, which I really like. It is similar to Ottersai. It's clearer and has a cleaner finish than the Ottersai. It's delicious. Repeat!

They use apple something yeast. The sourness and sweet-sourness is refreshing and something I've never had before. It's good.

This is so good! Fresh and slightly carbonated. A richly spreading umami. I like this sake because it has little miscellaneous flavors. I want a repeat!

It starts with a strong acidity, then a fruity flavor and moderate umami. Then it disappears quickly and has a refreshing aftertaste.

This is good! I like it! It's fizzy, rich and tasty, and the acidity is controlled. It's also good for the cost. I'll be repeating this one!

Slight sweetness on entry. A moderately fruity flavor. The fullness and flavor spread, and the aftertaste is clear and uncluttered. This is delicious! For now, if you want to repeat Kuroryu, it should be Daiginjo.

This one after tasting about two of the brewery's limited edition ones. I think I like this one the best because it's free from any unpleasant taste! Kunimare is dry and has a gentle flavor that is easy to drink!

This is another sake from Otaru Tanaka Shuzo, following the Takaragawa we drank yesterday. It's still very clear and light. It seems to be similar to the Kokushi Muso sake from Takasago Shuzo.

No hazards in the production. Refined and transparent. The flavor spreads from the fruity aroma. And it is clear and sharp. It's good👍.

This is the Junmai Ginjo version of the one we drank yesterday. It is still good. The taste is typical of Hokkaido. It has a light, umami taste. I took the liberty of making it "Hokkaido-like", but it's probably like that. Personally, I prefer the junmai-shu we drank yesterday.

I drank it the day after I drank the 45, and hmmm it tastes even better than the 45 with even more of the nasty stuff cut out! But it's 1.5 times more expensive than 45, so I'm not sure if it's worth it.... I think I'll choose 45.
