pika
This is my first time drinking the Jr. series, and it is a winner. It has a gorgeous aroma and a strong flavor, and is a delicious sake with a very high level.

It is a dry sake with a crisp and refreshing taste. It doesn't get in the way of a meal, so it's good as a mid-meal sake. However, it doesn't have much umami, so it's not my favorite.

It is not unpleasantly spicy, but the moment you put it in your mouth, the flavor spreads. When you put it in your mouth, the flavor spreads, and when it goes down your throat, it's refreshing.

It is stable and delicious. The aroma is good, the sweetness is good, and the flavor is good. And because it is a nama-shu, you can feel a good amount of foam right after opening.

RyozekiRz50 純米吟醸 Sweet Emortion

pika
This year, it is printed directly on the bottle. The taste is stable sweetness and deliciousness. The bitterness disappears and the taste is better after a little while than after opening the bottle. The rice this time is Gohyakumangoku, but I think the Akita Sakekomachi I drank last year was better.

pika
The royal road of Niigata's sake. It is a sake with a good balance of spiciness, umami and sweetness. When it comes to Tsurumirei, the white label with blue letters is common, but the series with this label is also delicious.

One word: delicious! The balance of umami and sweetness is perfect, and it is a sake that you can gulp down. I hadn't had Ohmine since I drank a one-cup bottle a long time ago, but it was as wonderful as ever.

The sweet and sour taste comes first, and the end is a little spicy. I was expecting it to be sweeter because of the four seasons, but the sweetness is weaker.

Wakamusume牡丹 超限定直汲み 純米吟醸生原酒

pika
It was the first time I saw this brand, but I was attracted by the word "super limited" and bought it. It is a sake that you can taste two flavors at once, the sweetness in your mouth and the spiciness gradually coming out. It is a sake that can be drunk neatly, and I think I will look for another kind.

This is by far the number one wine I've had this year. The aroma, flavor, and sweetness are all well balanced and harmonious. You don't need any side dishes, you can drink it by itself. It is a sake that I want to drink again next year.

Tenbi純米吟醸 生原酒

pika
I finally drank my first Tenbi, which has been a hot topic since last year. It's fruity and relatively refreshing. It's not the kind of thing you can drink in one gulp. However, after a little while after opening the bottle, the bitter aftertaste started to appear, so it is better to drink it immediately after opening.

It's a stable brew. It's not a nama-shu, but it's fresh like a nama-shu, and the aroma and flavor are both outstanding. It's not as sweet as Masanochi, but it's very tasty in its own right.

It has a slight effervescence characteristic of nama-shu, a fruity sweetness, and a bitter and umami aftertaste. Kamonishiki is one of my personal favorite sakes, but this was a very high level sake among them.
