ogwNishi-Cestezuru Junmai Sake Daichi no Kaze
Sourness precedes the acidity. When it passes down the throat, there is a slight spiciness from the alcohol. The aroma is subdued. There is a slight alcohol taste. The taste is mild.
Later, a slight sweetness gradually spreads in the mouth.
There are no special characteristics that should be noted, but it is just right as there are no strange habits.

This sake is made from "Koshihikari" rice. This is the first time for me to drink a sake made with Association No. 6 yeast.
It has a broad sweetness. There is a slight sourness. It has a graininess. Flavor of low whiteness. Low stimulation.
A firm taste.

ogwShichihonryaku Josen
Tastes like old-fashioned sake. It has a relatively sweet rice flavor. The taste is fuller than you would expect from an aruzome sake, but it has a lot of body.
It is good to drink cold to enjoy its sharpness, but it tastes even better when heated.
A good sake for daily evening drinking.
ogwJunmai-shu from Takaragawa
Small 180ml bottle.
It is a clear, dry sake. I remember the brewer saying that he thought this was the driest sake he had ever tasted.
It goes straight in and disappears quickly. It has a good sharpness. It is a straightforward sake.
No alcohol smell or peculiarity.
ogwPurple label of Nabeshima.
Gassy. Lightly irritating on the tongue. Melon-like flavor and bitterness.
Bottled in March, so it is a bit old. The bitterness is a bit forward. If it were a little newer, it might be even better.
There are no bad habits, and there is no strange alcohol taste.
Before you know it, the sake is gone from the sake cup. The sake goes down smoothly.
ogwKunishi Musou Junmai Ginjo-shu
Bought at Takasago Sake Brewery on a visit to Hokkaido.
It tastes clean and sweet. Moderate acidity. I had drunk it once before and thought, "Was it this good?" I thought. The taste may be slightly different between last year and this year, but I don't know. At any rate, it is delicious.
It has a smooth taste that you don't get tired of drinking. It is not flashy, but it tastes fresh.
Takasago Brewery's sake is delicious!
ogwKamoizumi Junmai Sake Hajime
Kamoizumi Junmai Sake Ichi (一) is a sake made from junmai (pure rice).
Sake with a slight yellow tinge. The aroma of rice can be felt.
It is expected to be a dry sake, but it has a calm taste and is surprisingly refreshing. It is not too stimulating, and seems to go smoothly into the body. It tastes like the embodiment of gentleness. It has a slight acidity in the aftertaste.
I think it is a type of wine that can be enjoyed at any temperature.
It is a sake with a somewhat autumnal flavor.
ogwKamo Nishiki Junmai Ginjo
Found at Ricaman. Kamonishiki that is not a packaged sake.
Modest aroma, subdued taste. Fresh sweetness and mild acidity. Moderate ginjo aroma.
The taste is rather modern. Although it is fruity, it is not assertive, so it does not interfere with meals as a medium-bodied sake.
ogwSanyotsuru Tokusen Ginjo
Slightly alcoholic, with a slight sake odor. Sake quality is clear and smooth. There is no sense of depth of flavor. It is an easy-drinking sake. Moderately dry.
ogwContinuing from last year, there were 32 sake breweries collaborating on Junmai sake this year.
The acidity is more forward than last year. It also has an apple-like taste. Like a sour apple. Slightly sweet. It doesn't seem to have much spiciness, but the acidity makes it refreshing. The taste is a little complex, perhaps because it is a blended sake.
ogwFukubito Saijo Sake Brewing School Daiginjo
Delicious. A little melon-like bitterness. Very light and pleasant to drink. Elegant taste. A little pricey (about 1050 yen for 300ml), but it would be acceptable even if it were more expensive. The aroma is subdued.
There is no unpleasant sake smell, and it is clean. It has a high degree of perfection. Very good!
ogwKamikawa Taisetsu Special Junmai

It has a taste of grain. It has sweetness. Smoky and savory. Full-bodied taste.

A shining individuality in a calm sake quality.
ogwCup sake of Kuniumare. It is cup-shaped and has a design of cherries. Cute. There was also one with an apple pattern.

The taste is classic dry. It has a sweetness derived from rice. There is a caramel-like taste. Mellow.
Maybe it is best at room temperature.
ogwNiiyu Junmai Ginjo
This sake is made by the same pot store that brews "Fudo".

It tastes similar to "Chiyomusubi Strong 50," one of the recent sakes we drank. It tastes a bit like a thinner version of Chiyomusubi.
