Alcohol content: 15 Rice used:Undisclosed Rice polishing ratio:50%. At a sake bar in Tokyo. Winner of the IWC2023 Gold Trophy. The taste is dominated by sweetness. It has a good balance with acidity and a little gasiness. It was a juicy, royal sake, which was delicious in spite of a series of dry sake on that day.

Alcohol content: 15 Tamakae Rice polishing ratio: 60 At a sake bar in Tokyo. This is the first time for me to taste Tamakae sake rice. The first mouthfeel is sweet, but it is quickly cut off and the aftertaste is crisp. It also has a good amount of acidity, giving the impression of a dry mid-meal sake. On this day, I drank a lot of sake that was more like a food sake.

Alcohol content: 16 Hachitan Nishiki Polishing ratio: 60 At a sake bar in Tokyo. The color is slightly yellowish. As the label says, it is very dry. It has a refreshing, watery taste. I had it with kingfish sashimi, and it was a good match even with other light-skinned fish.

Alcohol content: 15 Sake Mirai from Yamagata 80%, other 20%. Rice polishing ratio: 45 At a sake bar in Tokyo. One of the sakes available for an extra charge. It has the face of various tropical fruits in both aroma and taste. Pineapple, mango, and banana are easily sensed, with peach nuances. The mouthfeel has 0 alcohol, a soft elegant and mellow flavor, and a very tasty rice flavor. It is still delicious.

Alcohol content: 14.1%. Kame-no-o Rice Polishing Ratio: 50% (Koji rice), 60% (Kake rice) At a sake bar in Tokyo. One of the sake available for an extra charge. This is from the 2018 hanpukai, so it is likely to have become smoother over time than it was when it was distributed. The taste is sweet and the mouthfeel is very smooth and refreshing. It has almost no acidity, which is a characteristic of Niimasa, to the point where you would think it was a kijoshu. It is not labeled as a "kijoshu," but rather a "kijoshu" sake. It was not labeled as a kijoshu, and I could not understand why it was called kijo junmai-shu. I will ask the waiter next time I see it.

Alcohol content: 15 Akita Sake Komachi Rice polishing ratio: 35 At a corner bar of Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station. Smooth ginjo aroma with a hint of alcohol in the back. Very smooth on the palate. It is dry with little sweetness. The acidity is predominant, but not to the point of being sour. The bitterness in the aftertaste finishes the whole experience. It is rare to find such a dry sake that has been polished to 35%. It is a great food sake and goes well with all kinds of Japanese food such as simmered, deep-fried, and sashimi dishes. This is a delicious sake that shows its true value not as a stand-alone sake, but when paired with food.

Alcohol content: 14%. Aizan Rice polishing ratio:undisclosed At the corner of Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station. The aroma is muscat and green apple-like. Almost clear, but with a slight yellow tinge. In the mouth, the sweetness is quickly followed by sourness and the umami from Aizan. The freshly opened bottle gave off a slight gassy sensation on the tip of the tongue. The aftertaste is sour and bitter in the back of the throat. Since it was a corner bar, there were not many dishes, but this was a delicious sake that I would like to enjoy with a variety of dishes.

Alcohol content: 16 Echigo Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio: 48 Perhaps due to the color of the label, it has a pineapple aroma, which is a characteristic of Kahayotsu, but it also has a melon-like aroma. The taste is a firm, sweet and umami type of flavor. The aftertaste is dryer than the pineapple juice flavor of other Huayouyosu wines, with a noticeable bitterness. It has a clean aftertaste that is designed to be paired with food, which I like. I have had the opportunity to drink a variety of Huayouyasutake, and I like them all.

Alcohol content: 14% to 15 Rice: Undisclosed, Brewer's alcohol Rice polishing ratio: 60 The aroma itself is fruity. It has a clean, light dry taste, partly due to the fact that it is alky. As it is not enough on its own, it would be suitable for evening drinking with oden or other gentle dishes.

Alcohol content: 16 Yamada Nishiki Rice polishing ratio: 55 The name sounds like a wrestling match. The color is clear and colorless, and the aroma is unobtrusive, with no particular impression of ginjo aroma. In the mouth, there is a fruity sweetness, but the aftertaste is spicy, reminiscent of alcohol. It is not a beautiful sake, but rather a sake that makes a statement but does not interfere with the food. I have not tasted this kind of sake recently, but I personally like it. It went very well with pork stew, especially with boiled eggs.

Alcohol content: 15%. Omachi Rice polishing ratio: 55 At a sake party in Tokyo. It was given to us by a person who brought it as a souvenir from Nagano. The origin of the name comes from the desire to "brew the real best (gold) sake". This sake has a tingling acidity on the tip of the tongue, but at the same time it has a sweet and sour flavor that is typical of Omachi. It also has a fruity nuance like grapes. I could not feel any alcohol.

Alcohol content: 15%. Watafune No.2 Rice polishing ratio: 50 Since there is no specification, it is not known if this is a ginjo-shu or not. If it is a ginjo-style sake, it must be junmai ginjo or junmai daiginjo. The taste is slightly thickened in the mouth. When tasted slowly in the mouth, it tastes sweet and delicious. On the other hand, it is interesting that it becomes like a clear dry sake if you drink it immediately while it is still cold.

Alcohol content: 14% to less than 15 Oceto Rice polishing ratio:58 The label is very stylish. The sake itself is slightly yellowish. There was a note of caution, but there was no nigori or other particular nigori. The aroma has a sweet and sour apple nuance. The taste was delicious, with a yogurt taste and a refreshing sweet and sour taste.
