Type: junmai daiginjo, rice polishing rate: 50%, alc.: 15% Aroma is magnificent. It has fruity scent of tropical fruit candy and pineapple. Flavor is refreshing, clean and bright. It's not too sweet and there is fresh fruity acidity. It is light and elegant. This drink is so good that I can't stop pouring yet another glass. This made my Sunday afternoon even better.

I bought junmai and kimoto junmai version of this sake for comparism. Basic specs are the same: Type: junmai, rice: Tamazakae, polishing rate: 60%, alc.: 15% The sake is made in wooden barrel but I couldn't feel it in the aroma or flavor. Aroma is mild, I could smell apricots. The flavor is slightly fruity. I had a feeling of soft tingling on the tongue the first day I opened the bottle. At room temperature this has stronger aroma and more flavor than the kimoto version. Kimoto has more color.

I bought junmai and kimoto junmai version of this sake for comparism. Basic specs are the same: Type: junmai kimoto, rice: Tamazakae, polishing rate: 60%, alc.: 15% The sake is made in wooden barrel but I couldn't feel it in the aroma or flavor. At room temperature the aroma is very weak. I couldn't get any kimoto notes. Flavor was not as rich as I expected. There was sharp acidity followed by bitterness. When hot this sake shined. Beautiful sweetness in aroma, savoury taste full of umami.

I went to izakaya for quick dinner after hard day in the office. I ordered some meat, doufu, miso soup, mushrooms and honjozo Tengumai. Aroma was mild and flavor was refreshing. The sake is light-bodied with just a tiny hint of some yamahai blended in. It was light with mild aroma so it didn't interfere with food. Suits many kinds of food.

I am so surprised by this sake! I would always keep a bottle of this in my fridge. This is the ultimate everyday junmai. Type: junmai, rice: Hida Homare, polishing rate: 65%, SMV: +2, acidity: 1.3, amino acids: 1.2, alc.: 16.5% Mild aroma of grain, rice and ripe bananas. Flavor seems sweet to me with acidity that seems to be escaping and strong umami of rice. There is a really slight juicyness caused by the sweetness and acidity. I bought a big 1.8l bottle and I know I will buy another one.

Just seeing the beautiful color makes me feel warm. Type: junmai yamahai, rice: Kita Nishiki, polishing rate: 66%, alc.: 12.5% Color is amber which is a sign of aged sake. I love the color Aroma is mild and pleasantly grainy with signs of yamahai The label is cute and calls us to warm the sake. Flavor of aged sake with sharp acidity and plentiful umami. I drank it both at room temperature and hot. Although, I am not a fan of warmed sake, in this case, I found it better than room temperature

Is this white wine I am drinking? With SMV -22 I was expecting sweet sake. Type: yamahai junmai ginjo, rice: Akita sake Komachi, polishing rate: koji rice 50% kake rice 60%, SMV: -22, acidity: 5.2, yeast: no. 77, alc.: 14% Mild aroma of koji. I didn't smell ginjo aroma. Flavor is sour, very sour. I couldn't feel any sweetness. White koji (citric acid) + yeast no.77 (malic acid) + yamahai (lactic acid) = a lot of acid The brewery is very old, 535 years. The third oldest brewery in Japan.

It's the end of the work week and time for a glass of good sake. Or two glasses. Type: junmai ginjo, rice polishing rate: 60%, alc.: 15% Color is slightly yellowish. Aroma is mild. Very ripe bananas, cocoa, caramel. Hints of aging right there. Flavor is refreshing but rich. Sourness comes first, followed by spreading savoriness and umami, then sweetness and slightly tart finish that lingers. Caramel notes in the flavor reminds me of aged sake. This is not your light ginjo. This is Tamagawa.

Type: junmai, rice: Yamada Nishiki, polishing rate: 75%, alc.: 17% I ordered junmai in restaurant and I was surprised by the rich flavor. I didn't expected this. Later I read about it online, that it is from low milled rice and aged over a year. No wonder it is so rich. Aroma of rice and mochi. Flavor is sweet with full umami of low polished Yamada Nishiki that fills the mouth quickly and followed by gentle acidity at the end. Good balance and rich flavor. Grilled beef, hot pot.

The Lunar New Year is coming soon and it's time for some celebratory sake. Rice: Miyama Nishiki from Yamagata prefecture, polishing rate: 50%, yeast: no. 6, alc.: 15% Fruity ginjo aroma, bananas and a hint of citrus fruit. Flavor is juicy, sour and sweet. Sweetness ends quickly but it has a white wine like sourness that remains till the end. It is delicious and refreshing. It is made with white koji which brings that sourness.

Type: junmai ginjo, rice: Yamada Nishiki, polishing rate: 60%, SMV: +14, acidity: 1.8, amino acids: 0.9, alc.: 14% Had dinner in izakaya with my colleagie today and saw this sake on the menu. I thought it would go well with grilled food because it's dry. Oh boy, I was right. Aroma is very mild, mostly rice with notes of ginjo aroma. Flavor is dry and light. Really goes well with grilled meat. Great food sake.

Today we came back from Disneyland. I opened a bottle of Dewatsuru tonight. Type: junmai ginjo, rice: Tsubuzoroi, polishing rate: 60%, SMV: -2, acidity: 1.7, alc.: 15-16% Aparently this sake is made of new rice strain from Akita called Tsubuzoroi. That is interesting. Aroma is charming. Rice and ripe sweet fruit - bananas. Flavor is rather sweet with crisp finish. There is a slight fiziness. It is very tasty and drinks very easily. I could finish a whole bottle in one evening.

This sake is made in Beijing, China. I bought it in sushi restaurant to drink it with my lunch. It's nothing special, goes well with food, especially sushi.
