Alcohol content: 15 Dewa Tsanzan Rice polishing ratio: 50 At a sake meeting in Tokyo. Left torsion is apparently a slang term from the Edo period to describe a sake drinker. The person who brought this was right-handed. The aroma is indeed like tropical fruit. In the mouth, it is smooth like water. The taste was fruity, with a noticeable sweetness and acidity. It was a delicious sake.

Alcohol content: 15 Yamada Nishiki Rice polishing ratio: 40 Purchased at Nagaoka station during a business trip to Niigata. It is a Kamo Nishiki sake sold only in Niigata Prefecture. When served in a glass, it has fine bubbles. It has a slight gaseous sensation, with a noticeable acidity that makes the tip of the tongue churn. It is a beautiful dry sake with a fruity yet bitter aftertaste. I had it with sukiyaki, but it went better with rice with bamboo shoots.

Alcohol content: 15 Ginga Rice polishing ratio: 50 Winner of the Gold Prize in the Premium Daiginjo category at the Wineglass Delicious Sake Awards 2025. At a sake meeting in Tokyo. The fruity and mellow aroma stands up very well as shown in the chart on the back label.

If I have a chance to drink it again, I would like to drink it in a wine glass.

Alcohol content: 7%. Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:59 At a sake meeting in Tokyo. It is a low alcohol sake at 7 degrees C. It is orikagara and has a strong gaseous taste as the name suggests. As the name "sour" implies, it has a gaseous taste. There is a yogurt-like nuance in the back, but it may be similar to grapefruit sour. It is characterized by sweet and sourness, but the sweetness is slightly dominant. Easy to drink and delicious.

Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:60 At a sake meeting in Tokyo. The label is cute and full of apples. The aroma is completely apple juice. The taste is more like a cider than a sake. It is so close to apple. I thought it was amazing that a sake made from rice could bring out so much apple flavor.

Alcohol content: 15 Yamada Nishiki Polishing ratio: 90 At a sake meeting in Tokyo. It is made using a method called mizu-hashiro, which has been handed down since the Muromachi period (1333-1573), and no yeast is added. The bottle is stylish. It is hard to tell from the picture, but it looks like Hibiki whiskey. The color is a yellow, which is a major color for Ame-no-Furei. The aroma was that of rice. The aroma was of rice. The taste was very acidic, like Shaoxing sake or barrel sake. I felt it would be best served well chilled or warmed.
