Shironameko
A gift. The first bottle, though the way of receiving is a little peculiar. It is "Cho-tanrei," which is a rice suited for sake brewing. This is the first time I've heard of it, but it may be the real "light" type. It may be more sweet than umami, but there is no sticky feeling at all. A great aperitif.

Shironameko
I bought it because it was extremely hot and I needed to cool off. The price is quite cheap compared to other brands in the area, perhaps because of its name value? It may be because of its name value, but it is a refreshing bottle of summer sake.

Shironameko
I had been wanting to try some sake from the Niida family for some time, and the refreshing 🐸 label. I had no choice but to buy it. It was full of the freshness of summer sake. This is delicious without any price tag.

I ordered the sake from the brewery that I received at Someday's Miya-san as part of my hometown tax payment. The one from that time was refreshing, but this one has a robust rice flavor. It is a perfect food sake. The alcohol content is also very low. I will drink it little by little.

Finally opened a bottle of this souvenir from the Suwa Gokura pilgrimage. The ginjo aroma is not so strong, and for a 15% alcohol content, it feels strong. However, it is also elegant.

I am glad that the brand name does not appear, and on the contrary, it is rare. The selection criterion was the name of the place, Nakatsugawa. There is a slight connection. The aroma is strong and surprising, but the taste is mellow. I will drink it slowly with a high alcohol content.

A gem from Maihime brought back from Suwa. As the name suggests, the sake is polished and clear. The glass was a gift from the neighboring Reijin, a "collaboration" of five Suwa breweries.

This is also a tasting only. After tasting two kinds of sake, we were at the end of our tasting time. We visited Honkin only. Masumi and Maihime were packed in a cool bag to take home. Still, it's a great place. Suwa is a wonderful place.

I opened a bottle of the wine I had received. I first drank it in a wine glass with the sediment still in it, and it was like champagne. After that, I drank it with nigori sake. Elegant is the best word to describe it.
