I've had my eye on red and white for a while. After much hesitation, I chose the white one. The aroma is quite strong with lactic acid bacteria like yogurt. Is it a feeling I don't like? But the taste is not lactobacillus feeling. It is a strange feeling. But the taste is rather full, and it is beautiful but drinkable. I wonder what the red is like.

What is Enyu Junmai?　I have never heard the word "Enryu" before, but when I looked it up, I found that it means something like "to be completely united while maintaining each individuality. I did not drink it while thinking about how happy the world would be if such a thing were possible, but it was delicious enough to make me happy. It is very mild, but it has umami, sweetness, sourness, and bitterness. It really has the feeling of being a "yen-yu" (a Japanese word that means "round" or "melt"). It has the power of words, but it also has the power of sake.

意外と初めて投稿する作。たしか伊勢志摩サミットで有名になって、その頃はちょいちょい飲んでた気がするけど、だいぶ久しぶり。ひやおろしらしい角のとれたまろやかさが心地いい味わいです。作だからもう少しフレッシュな印象が強いのかな、と思ってたけど、ちゃんとひやおろしでした。

At first it was quite properly gassy. It is a very good balance because it does not interfere with the flavor and can be enjoyed. The liquor store I saw the day before yesterday also had it, and as expected, I did not buy it in succession, but I wish I had.

Miyazumi of Miyazumi is famous for its 寫楽. Since we are the ones carrying the sign, there is no reason why it can't be good. Why is it famous for 寫楽? I drink it with the image of 寫楽 in my mind. It's like 寫楽, with a strong strength and a lightness at the same time. Is 寫楽 similar to Miyazumi, or is Miyazumi similar to 寫楽? What is the difference? It would be interesting to learn more about these things.

Abeno Sparkling. It is delicious. I drink sparkling sake only two or three times a year, so I don't really know what sparkling sake is, but I tend to buy it for my mood, so I tend to choose a brand that I can trust. However, there are some that disappoint me, and sparkling sake seems to have a lot of depth to it.

There is no bitterness or acidity, only sweetness and umami. It is monotonous, but I personally like the taste so much that I never get tired of drinking it. How about the sharpness? It may not be very good, but I would like to drink it all the time, just like autumn.

There is a slight gasiness. The gorgeous aroma is not too strong, but elegant. The taste is very fresh, with more acidity than sweetness. Personally, I would prefer a little more sweetness and umami, but I would get bored if that was all I tasted, so it is better to have more variations in flavor. I think it is even better on the third day after opening the bottle, when it has settled down.

It's been a long time since I've had an Akabu. It has a noble sweetness that fits the name "amber" perfectly. It has a gentle aroma and is easy to drink. However, as in autumn, I am happy to drink it lazily at night. The impression of the flavor changes with the change in temperature. Enjoy it while drinking.

Although it is well-known to be delicious, there are surprisingly few opportunities to drink Kuheiji. It has a gorgeous aroma and the umami of Yamadanishiki. The clean flavor of the daiginjo gives it a universal deliciousness that seems to go well with any meal.

Slightly lactic acidity with a clean mouthfeel. It is a refreshing taste that cannot be called dry. The reason why it does not become monotonous is because of the pleasant lactobacilli feeling that is faintly felt. Personally, I found the taste rather unusual and interesting.

When I bought this sake, I simply wanted to drink Wind Forest, and I thought I would probably not wait until October 1 to drink it, but I waited properly. I mean, I managed to open the bottle just before the date changed. Since the one I had been drinking until just before was "Ringo Pom Pom," the richness of the flavor stood out. Rich flavor and sweetness with little bitterness. Pleasantly chili. It gives the impression of being quite heavy, so I can't drink a large amount, but it is very satisfying.

The third cup was Houou Mita WINE CELL, which, as the name suggests, has a fresh taste with white wine-like acidity and bitterness combined with the delicious flavor of rice. It has a beautiful taste with a nice sharpness, so it is perfect as a closing drink. You may be tempted to think you can drink more, but it is important to control yourself.

The second drink is a yui with laughing characters. I like this label. The taste is clean and clean, sweet and delicious. It is my favorite flavor. The meal was great as the nigiri was just starting and the atmosphere was very exciting. Even though the sake has such a pronounced flavor, it goes well with the food. It is a marriage of the skill of the owner and the skill of the sommelier.

The first drink at a sushi restaurant. Mr. Yamamoto also has a good beer. This is my first time to try orange. I think it is one of Yamamoto's richer flavors. Yamamoto has an image of being rather dry, but Orange spreads the umami of the rice and disappears quickly. It is like a crisp special junmai. It is delicious.

The aroma is completely apple. The gentle acidity and juicy, subtle sweetness are definitely apple. The low alcohol content makes it easy to drink, but it also leaves something to be desired. Rather than drinking it as a sake, it might be better suited to a lighter, more sour drink.

I don't think it's necessary to decorate the label so much, though. I think the taste is just as unique as the label. In that case, this label might be appropriate. Although it is a junmai daiginjo, it has a richness that reminds me of a kijoshu. The balance of sweetness, acidity, and bitterness is unique, and each stands out, making it hard to describe. The slightly peculiar taste is exactly the same as the label design.

I bought Momota after much agonizing with Ura-A-Sakura. The aroma when I opened the bottle was slightly lactic acidic, which was different from what I expected. When I drank it, it tasted spicy or smoky, which was rather new to me. Well, if you ask me if I like it, I don't think so. However, as the temperature rises, it mellows out a bit. Maybe room temperature is just right. I'm going to try it in different ways and see how it changes in the future.

Since I failed once with Yamahai, I am not very good at it, so I no longer buy it myself, but when I am told that this is also Yamahai, I have to change my mind. It has a very beautiful impression with a full flavor and gentle sweetness. It does not have the so-called "old-fashioned sake" character. I think I may have been wrong in my assumption about the traditional sake character.
