My first Ehime sake. It is a junmai ginjo-shu called "Satoumi no Kan" from Ume Nishiki Yamakawa Co. in Shikokuchuo City. It is made from 100% Omachi rice grown in Okayama Prefecture, which is part of the "Setouchi Kakigara Agri" project of the JA Okayama Group to preserve the environment through recycling. It has a sour taste and is very refreshing, making it a delicious sake that is easy to drink. It gives the impression of being perfect for hot summer days. The ginjo aroma is subdued, perhaps because it is drunk cold, but as you drink it, you can smell it softly and gently.

This is another autumn sake recommended by Reel Shokudo. The label is cute, but the sake is a pure rice sake with a delicious rice flavor and aroma. The label recommends heating the sake, but it was hot, so we served it cold.

This is another autumn sake recommended by Reel Shokudo. It is a very refreshing sake with an ultra-harsh taste, but it also has a delicious junmai flavor. Sorry for the out-of-focus photo of the Taibijin I posted earlier.

This is an autumn sake recommended by Reel Shokudo in Doyama, which we visited after a long absence on a business trip to Osaka. It is a delicious sake with a mellow aroma typical of junmai ginjo and a delicious, but clean, impression. I paired it with a baguette with liver paste, but it was not overpowered at all.

The overall impression is that it has a punchy taste as is typical of the original sake, but it is a delicious, refreshing sake with umami and a little acidity. It gives the impression that it will not be defeated by strongly seasoned or fatty food.

When it comes to ordinary sake in Hokkaido, you can't go wrong with Nemuro's "Kita no Katsu Oumi" 🍶. It has a gentle, rounded flavor, and is a delicious everyday sake that you will never get tired of drinking. I bought a small 300ml bottle at Sekoma and had it for dinner on a business trip.

It does not have a strong ginrei aroma and is refreshing and easy to drink. I paired it with cherry salmon sashimi and vinegared mackerel, but it seems to go well with a variety of dishes.

This sake is produced at the Hekiun Brewery of the Kamikawa Taisetsu Sake Brewery in Obihiro City. It is a pure rice sake with a clean aroma and low acidity. It has an aftertaste that lingers on the tongue, but seems to go well with salty snacks.

Junmai Daiginjo sake from Tottori Prefecture's Fukura Shuzo found at Donki. For some reason, it was on special sale. It was stored at room temperature, so it may not have been well preserved, but I found it to be a delicious sake, with a hint of ginjo aroma and soft acidity.

It is a reprint of the sake that Yokoyama Taikan loved to drink. It has the flavor of junmai sake, but the aftertaste is very refreshing and very easy to drink. I was able to buy it at a bargain price at a special sale in the sake section of a supermarket.
