Purchased at Sakamoto Shoten when I returned home. I was curious about this brand. It is a style that I like very much. The aroma is subdued, and the sweetness of the honey, like that of red apples, is combined with the lightness of the pulp. The color is light. In the mouth, it has a refreshing flavor of apple and white grapes, and a sharp acidity spreads out to tighten the overall taste, and it finishes quickly. The slightly effervescent and tangy flavor, combined with the tingling sensation, creates an easy-to-drink but dry atmosphere. In addition, the base has the umami of Dewa Sanzu, making it smart yet broad. Noteworthy is the sharpness of the acidity. While sweet and fruity tastes are still popular today, it is cool to see a wine that seems sweet but actually has a very tight body when you take it off. I paired it with fried tofu from Tochio, grilled on both sides and topped with miso paste and small green onions, and it was a perfect match. A sharp sake. I like it.

At Tenka, 4/4th cup. Personally, I liked this one the best out of the four cups. It has a complex taste with a number of tastes mixed together, including the soft acidity of lactic acid, the umami of rice, and bitterness. Among them, I especially felt a mineral taste, which is similar to the taste one gets when drinking hard water, and thought that this is the taste of nama-hashigashi-zukuri. Because it is a nama-hara, it is also sweet and easy to drink. I wonder if this is what is meant by mellow in sake. It was a good learning experience for me. I want to drink it again.

At Tenka, 3/4th cup. This sake was amazing. As soon as I put the glass to my nose, the sharp acidity and ginjo aroma spread out in a whirlwind, making a strong first impression as if flower petals had opened. When I drank it, I found a refreshing sweetness with an acidity like that of white grapes. At the same time, the spiciness that is typical of Japanese sake passes through as an accent. There was no visible bubbling, but there was a tingling sensation on the tongue. There may be a slight bubbling immediately after opening the bottle. Is this the power of No. 9 yeast? The lovely sweetness of Akita Sakekomachi tickles the drinker. That's all there is to it! I felt like saying, "This is all of it!" as all the parameters were set to the same level. It is an amazing sake.

At Tenka, 2/4th cup. I have been curious about this brand for a long time, as I have seen it frequently in various places. It was delicious, but... I can't remember it at all. Pien. It was a bitter sour sake... It was brewed with Toyama's Yuyamanishiki rice, which was very good because it had a full flavor... I think. At first, I thought "Yuyamanishiki" was "Omachi-nishiki" and wondered what it was...? I guess I was already feeling good about it. Now I have an excuse to go out drinking again.... Revenge of Shichida.

At Tenka-san in Higashi Ward, which I have been wanting to visit for a long time. This is my 1/4th drink. My memory is a little hazy because it was an unusual outing... (laughs). (laugh). This was the first time I drank tasake (rice wine). When I tickled my nose with the glass, I noticed a fragrant heady aroma that made me think it was a ginjo-shu, even though it was a junmai sake. At this point, I was convinced of its overwhelmingly high quality. In the mouth, a refreshing sweet and sour flavor like green apple spreads. However, it is not light, and the sweetness is deep and down-to-earth. Is this the taste of Yamahai-style brewing? The final taste of this sake, made by polishing Hanafukuyuki up to 55%, was fluffy yet somehow soothing. This is rice wine...! It is an amazing sake.

I bought it at a locksmith shop in Sakanamachi, seeing only the brand name. I was somewhat curious about this brand. I don't recall ever drinking a sake made with a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast. The acidity that is typical of this type of sake spreads in the mouth and lingers as an aftertaste. From the back of the mouth, the roundness of lactic acidity and the mildness of Miyamanishiki can be felt, but other than the acidity, the rest of the taste is very smooth and clean. The impression is that the acidity extends smoothly. It has an atmosphere similar to that of my favorite Itaru, but it has a style that seems to have been perfected as a food sake by removing the flamboyance and aroma from Itaru. Moreover, it is an experienced ANA first class in-flight drink (sake). It was an interesting sake and I would like to try Ona's fast brewing style as well.

2024.1.5 Four days have passed since the bottle was opened. The flavor has opened up considerably, and the mild acidity and the sweetness and umami of the rice have come out, changing the atmosphere to that of a traditional sake. It has a roundness and mildness that makes you want to roll it around on your tongue. I think I like this one better.

Aichi's top-class popular brand. 100% Yamadanishiki from Tojo, Hyogo Prefecture. Even though it is not a ginjo-shu, it is so fragrant that it gives the illusion of a ginjo aroma! Personally, I am not a fan of Yamadanishiki, but this sake has none of the unpleasantness of Yamadanishiki, is not too sweet and crisp, but still has a gorgeous finish. The quality is excellent.

This is a standard sake from Ryoseki Shuzo, a famous brewery in Akita, famous for its Hanayu. This sake is brewed by polishing Akita Sakekomachi to 50%, It has a well-balanced flavor, with a gorgeous, robust sweetness like peaches, yet it does not linger and has a good sharpness.

A close taste is like Nara's Shinomine, with a little acidity and a clear, watery flow. It is a highly transparent sake that goes extremely well with rich meals.

The ginjo aroma, of course, is super fruity, with the gorgeousness of Yamadanishiki spreading in the mouth! Because it is unfiltered, the flavor from the unrefined sake can be felt, so the sweetness is not overpowering and the lingering taste is deep and pleasant! Yum!

Every time I went to Hasegawa-ya, I was always curious about Shiga Prefecture's Shichibon-yari. It has a fresh and crisp flavor like green apples and a clean, crisp alcohol taste that passes through the nose. It has the flavor of the unrefined sake, which is only possible with freshly pressed sake (unfiltered), but it also has a sharpness that makes it a good mid-meal sake. This is the first time I have had a sake brewed with Tamakae, and it tastes like Omachi, with a full and complex flavor. It seems that Omachi is the ancestor of sake rice. It has a delicious balance of umami and freshness.

In Shiwa Town, Iwate, I tasted and purchased about five kinds of sake at the direct sales store of the Tsuki no Wa Sake Brewery. The sake was brewed with 100% Ginotome and Giovanni yeast, an all-Iwate lineup. The taste is dry on the palate, but the fresh sweetness of the sake comes through later, and the taste is well balanced with a refreshing finish! Delicious! Gintome, I think I like it a lot.
