Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:50%. At an izakaya near Nagoya, where I was traveling. The nose has a fruity ginjo aroma of peaches and pears. The color is clear. The taste is predominantly sweet, with only acidity and no bitterness. There was no alcohol aftertaste, and the texture was slightly thick on the tongue. However, the sweetness does not linger in the mouth and wears off in a relatively short span of time, making it a well-balanced mid-palate. When combined with grilled shiitake mushrooms or other dishes that have a strong umami or sweet aftertaste, the acidity and bitterness come out. On the other hand, if you drink it as it is, you can feel the sweetness and acidity most smoothly. It is probably better drunk on its own than as a food sake.

Alcohol content: 17 Fukunoka Rice polishing ratio: 55 The aroma is fruity but the taste is dry. The aftertaste has a strong alcohol aftertaste. Perhaps it was because I drank Ichinokura, which I mentioned earlier, that I felt the bitterness was excessive.

Alcohol content: 15 Yamada Nishiki Polishing ratio: 35 Shouko" is the Japanese word for "Shoko". According to the description on the package, it is a coined word. It is said that the Yamada-Nishiki rice was polished to 35% over 100 hours. The aroma is a ginjo aroma with hints of peach and pear. The mouthfeel is smoother than water, with a gentle sweetness at first and a sour aftertaste. No bitterness. This is very tasty. When paired with tomatoes and other sour foods, the acidity in the aftertaste is softened and the sweetness in the mouth is accentuated. Highly recommended as a pairing.

Alcohol content: 15 Miyamanishiki 74%, Akita Sake Komachi 26 Polishing ratio: 60 The color is slightly yellowish. It has a sweet and sour taste with a slight predominance of acidity, as is typical of Yamahai. It is a food sake that is not too alcoholic and has a strong flavor that is not overpowered by the hot pot of stuffed fish, but at the same time, it refreshes the palate.

Alcohol content: 6%. Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:undisclosed At the HINEMOS specialty store in Nakameguro, Tokyo. The label on the front reads 0:30, perhaps because it is a limited edition at midnight. The color is slightly pinkish. This color is derived from the black rice used to make it, and it appears to turn pink when brewed. The taste is dominated by sweetness, followed by acidity, and has a sweet sake-like nuance. Most nigori sake is usually described as a lactobacillus drink, but this one is a little different and has an interesting personality.

Alcohol content: 2%. Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:70%. The 300th check-in completed HINEMOS from 18:00 to 5:00. At the HINEMOS specialty store in Nakameguro, Tokyo. HINEMOS lineup at 5pm. The aroma and taste are crisp and yogurt-like. The alcohol content is only 2 degrees, and the sweetness predominates, just like amazake (sweet sake). It is a good way to introduce sake to those who are new to drinking sake or those who shy away from sake, as there are many different types of sake. It may seem like juice to those who drink a lot of sake, but it tastes quite good, so this is a good choice. It is better to drink it slowly by itself than with food.

Alcohol content: 15 Rice: Undisclosed, Sake Rice polishing ratio:70%. At HINEMOS specialty retailer in Nakameguro, Tokyo. 22:00 out of HINEMOS lineup. The sake has an elevated number for a kijoshu. The taste is noticeably acidic, bitter, and robust with a touch of alcohol. As I felt with ICHIJI's limited edition sake, HINEMOS' kijo-zake may be less sweet. The description also recommends pairing it with sweets and cheese, which is interesting because there are few other examples of such pairings.

Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed, Sake Rice polishing ratio:undisclosed At the HINEMOS specialty store in Nakameguro, Tokyo. Limited edition ver. 1:00 of the HINEMOS lineup. The aroma is similar to ginjo aroma, and then there is a sense of calpis. The taste is generally marked by bitterness and acidity, and the sweetness is moderate for a kijoshu. If you are thinking of pairing it with chocolate, then perhaps a bitter sake would be better suited. It was an interesting kijoshu.

Alcohol content: 5%. Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:undisclosed At the HINEMOS specialty store in Nakameguro, Tokyo. HINEMOS lineup of sweet sake. 0:00. The slightly reddish hue is due to the fact that it is brewed with old rice. Tastes like peaches. Very fruity and light due to the low alcohol content.

Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:70%. This sake is based on the concept of time. There are 12 brands from 6:00 in the evening to 5:00 in the morning, each with a completely different flavor. The one we drank this time was the 3 o'clock brand. It is aged in cedar barrels and is a bit thick. The taste is dry with a strong acidity. However, it also has the aroma of cedar barrels, and I would recommend it as an introduction to aged sake. It was delicious.

Alcohol content: 14 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:50%. At HINEMOS specialty store in Nakameguro. This is also a dry sake at HINEMOS. 23:00. It has a similar taste to NIJI, but this one has more acidity and a bitter aftertaste. It is polished up to 50%, so it has less of a miscellaneous taste, but surprisingly, I felt more alcohol in the aftertaste than NIJI. I think it goes better with light dishes such as white fish sashimi.

Alcohol content: 13%. Domaine Sakura Yamadanishiki Polishing ratio: undisclosed At a sake meeting. The carbonation is such that if you are not careful when opening it, it will blow out. It has undergone secondary fermentation in the bottle and is cloudy. The taste is dry with bitterness, but you can taste the umami of rice and sweet acidity in the back of the bottle. Like a dry sparkling wine, it can be enjoyed as an aperitif or with appetizers.

Alcohol content: 18 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:60 At a sake meeting. This sake is a collaboration between Hakkaisan and Shinshu Ren, a wholesaler in Kanagawa Prefecture. The aroma is gorgeous. The overall taste is clean and dry, with a noticeable bitterness and acidity that starts to come through in the middle of the swallow. The aftertaste has a strong alcoholic feeling and is very drinkable. The alcohol content is high and the taste is robust.

Alcohol content: 13 Rice used: Undisclosed Rice Polishing Ratio: 60% (Koji rice), 66% (Kake rice) At a sake meeting in Tokyo. I have the impression that Masamune Kikki is famous for its sake with alkoze, and junmai sake is not so common. The aroma is subdued. The mouthfeel is dominated by acidity, with a hint of sweetness, but the acidity stands out. The relatively low alcohol content makes it crisp and dry, a characteristic of Rakuji. The yellowtail nameko was served, and it went very well with it.

Alcohol content: 16 Rice used: Undisclosed Rice Polishing Ratio: 40% (Koji rice), 50% (Kake rice) At a sake meeting in Tokyo. The specs are Junmai Daiginjo class. Many people have posted about this sake on Sake-no-wa, and I finally had a chance to drink it. The aroma is a ginjo fragrance with hints of pear and peach, but when you drink it, the aroma is so mellow that it penetrates deep into your nose. The taste has a very high balance of sweetness, acidity, and rice-derived umami. There is almost no bitterness, and the lingering aftertaste is easily cut off when the drink is over. This is a very delicious sake.
