This is a junmai ginjo from Kamo Nishiki Shuzo, a brewery in Kamo City, Niigata Prefecture. All of the koji rice is made from Yamadanishiki. It is a delicious sake with the fullness of junmai, but it is also rather refreshing and easy to drink.

This is a dark, mellow, dry, specially aged junmai ginjo-shu from the famous sake "Bon" from Sabae, Fukui Prefecture, aged at ice temperature. As the tag on the bottle says, it is a very tasty sake with a soft, full ginjo aroma and gentle acidity in the mouth. We enjoyed it cold, but we would also like to try it lukewarm.

MANREI AKARI" is a Junmai Daiginjo-shu from Komatsu Shuzo in Karatsu City, Saga Prefecture, which was given to us by a person who has been very kind to us. It is a very delicious sake with a wonderful balance of full ginjo aroma, sweetness, and soft acidity. According to the label on the back, 20% Yamadanishiki from Saga Prefecture is used for the koji rice and 80% Yumeshizuku from Saga Prefecture for the kake rice.

It is a Junmai Daiginjo-shu "Blooming Flowers", a sake made by Fukumitsuya in Ishikawa Prefecture and made from 100% rice suitable for sake brewing called "Fuku no Hana". I bought it because of the cute design on the label, which says Blooming Flowers. It is a delicious sake with a refreshing taste and a gorgeous soft ginjo aroma that can be gently sensed.

This is a great value sake made by Hokkaido Otokoyama, blending their stock before making a new batch. There was also a regular sake, a junmai sake, and a sparkling sake, but this is a junmai sake. This sake has the richness of junmai sake, but is rather dry, refreshing, and delicious. This is a great value for 1,000 yen!

It is a low-polishing junmai sake with a rice polishing ratio of 91%. I had this sake at a tavern I visited some time ago, and although I forget the details of the taste, I remember it was a delicious sake with various flavors and aromas of rice.

The sake was still delicious, but because it was served in a Masu, the smell of the cypress was so strong that I could not taste or smell the fine flavors.

I received this sake at a tavern I went to a few weeks ago. I forget the detailed taste, but I think the aroma was so good that I thought it was a ginjo sake. I couldn't take a good picture of it because of the reflection of the label.

It is a little past its prime, but it is a hiyaoroshi sake. It has a matured aroma and a slightly dry taste. It was served cold, but it would also be delicious warmed. It would go well with rich dishes such as stewed pork or beef stew.
