__________ Specific name not disclosed Rice polishing ratio Alcohol 13%. Sake Degree Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ I ordered this sake after seeing the illustration of the snake, but it was a sticker... The sake is cloudy white because of the oirigami, but it is beautifully muddy and the tailings are not noticeable. The aroma of pineapple spreads and gives a refreshing impression. The texture on the tongue is silky, as is typical of orikara-mi. The refreshing pineapple flavor spreads in the mouth and disappears quickly. There was none of the acidity that one would expect from Sengoku, and it was fruity and easy to drink! I would like it better if the fruitiness that spreads in the mouth were stronger!

__________ Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15%. Sake meter degree -1.0 Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Junmai Ginjo-shu made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Banshu, Hyogo Prefecture. Very clear and transparent with a clear appearance. You can already feel the rice from the aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the flavor of rice spreads all over your mouth just like the aroma! This is the body feeling...! The taste is firm and mellow. The aftertaste of rice flavor remains on the tongue, but that flavor is not bad either. I think it would be better if it were served warmed up.

__________ Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 16 Sake meter degree -1.0 Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Junmai Ginjo-shu made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture. The cloudy white color is due to the fact that it is an ogara-mi. The citrusy aroma, reminiscent of mandarin oranges, is refreshing and nice. Silky on the palate. Fresh and juicy with a slightly strong alcohol taste, as is typical of the pure sake, giving the impression of a dry taste. The aftertaste is slightly acidic with a pear-like flavor.

__________ Junmai Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol 15 Sake Degree Personal evaluation: ★★★★ Clear and transparent in appearance Rumney aroma spreads. The taste has a sweetness like that of ramune, followed by a dry and crisp finish. Despite the 70% milled rice ratio, there are no unpleasant tastes, and the balance of sweetness and dryness is very good. The texture is light and spreads smoothly across the tongue. It has a slightly alcoholic taste, which leads to a nice sharpness, but it is not dull at all and is easy to drink! I think it goes well with anything as a food wine!

__________ Special Junmai Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15.5%. Sake Degree Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Clear, transparent and unadulterated. A strong ginjo aroma Fresh and juicy flavor typical of nama-shu The stimulation on the tongue is also irresistible! It tastes like a pure sake, but I may have expected too much from Jikin. I have the impression that the difficulty of obtaining it does not equal the taste 🤣. I'd like to try other Jikin...

__________ Junmai Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 16%. Sake Degree -5.5 Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ The appearance is beautifully clear with a fairly light yellowish tinge. The aroma is a slight ginjo aroma (it's hard to discern what it is...). Watery and smooth on the tongue. The pineapple flavor spreads gently throughout the mouth and disappears quickly. The moderate sweetness is not too assertive and gives a good impression as a food sake. The alcohol content was light for its strength, and although it was an easy-drinking, delicious sake, I felt that I expected a little too much.

__________ Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol 16%. Sake Degree Personal evaluation: ★★★★ It has a beautiful pale yellow color and a subtle ginjo aroma. The moment it enters the mouth, it gives the impression of being clean and dry! The fresh apple-like flavor spreads after that, and the balance of sweetness and acidity is exquisite. The aftertaste disappears without a trace, so it is also good to drink with food! As the temperature gets tepid, you can taste the flavor of the rice, but it's not cloying and it tastes even better ✨. This is the perfect bottle for a mealtime sake and goes great with any dish!

__________ Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 16-17%. Sake Degree Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Impression Slightly yellowish, but highly transparent and clear. Fruity peachy aroma with a light impression 🤔. Slightly thick and smooth on the palate The fruity aroma and the spiciness that is typical of nama sake spreads in the mouth as the aroma suggests. There is a slight alcohol taste, but the aftertaste is crisp and disappears easily, making it easy to drink without any peculiarities...! Surprisingly, it goes well with strong flavored food! I tried it with mackerel marinated in mirin and it was an irresistible combination 🤤.

__________ Daiginjo Rice polishing ratio 40 Alcohol 17 Sake meter degree -1 Personal Rating: ★★☆☆☆☆☆ Impression The color is clear and transparent. The aroma is light with a hint of fruitiness. The mouthfeel is smooth, but the umami of the rice and the alcohol taste spread quickly, giving it a sharp, dry taste. The whole tongue becomes warm and the aftertaste is a little alcoholic and lingers like sake. I saw a review that said it was sweet, but personally I felt the umami and dryness prevailed over the sweetness 🤔. (I drank it cold after that and it became slightly sweeter. (I then drank it cold, and it became slightly sweeter, but still covered by the alcohol feeling that comes afterwards). It went well with strong flavored dishes such as soup and fried food rather than light dishes such as sashimi!

__________ Junmai Ginjo Nigori Sake Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 15 Sake degree -1.0 Personal evaluation: ★★★★ Impression A citrusy aroma with a slight riceiness. The moment it enters the mouth, a strong gassy sensation is felt and the citrus flavor and sweetness spreads. The mouthfeel is silky, but the gasiness is so strong that it is almost like drinking sparkling wine! The aftertaste is also pleasantly gaseous and gently sweet... I thought nigori sake was supposed to be a rice-like sake, but the fresh taste makes it drinkable! I'd rather drink it by itself than as a food sake 🍶.

__________ Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 15 Sake degree: Undisclosed Personal evaluation: ★★★★ Impressions This is the first sake of the new year and is labeled with the zodiac signs of the two hares! I bought it just like buying a packet! The aroma is light but fruity. In the mouth, it has a tangy gasiness and acidity that is typical of nama-shu. It has a clear, dry, refreshing taste, but you can also taste the umami derived from the rice. The aftertaste is also slightly gaseous. This is the best sake for a meal that goes well with both oily food and refreshing soup stock! As one would expect from Nito, it was a well-balanced and easy-to-drink sake.

__________ Special Junmai Sake Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15 Sake degree: Undisclosed Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Impression It is said to be a blend of junmai sake and sake stored in oak barrels. Therefore, the aroma is already whiskey! The mouthfeel is slightly alcoholic, but the chocolate sweetness spreads immediately. The aftertaste has a whisky-like oak aroma. I was surprised that this was also sake! It was the first time I tasted this and it gave me a strange sensation. I don't think it would be out of place to call it whiskey.

I drank it after drinking Refrain, so I had even higher expectations. Pale fruit aroma. Pear-like sweetness spreads Tangy acidity on the tip of the tongue But the sweetness and richness spread to cover it. After that, it disappears quickly while the richness remains. The mouthfeel is a little watery, but the aroma is very fragrant. The Masamune series of instruments is a real treat!

__________ Junmai Ginjo-shu Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol 15 Sake Degree +5 Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Impression Slightly fragrant ginjo aroma. When you drink it, you will find it to be dry and light! The alcohol taste comes first in the mouth, followed by a light spread of umami. Slightly watery, with little acidity and little umami. It is very light from start to finish. Like Hakurakusei, it was interesting to see how it enhanced the umami when served with sashimi.

__________ Craft Sake Rice polishing ratio 92 Alcohol 10%. Sake Degree Personal Rating: ★★☆☆☆☆☆ Impressions My first craft saké! As the name suggests, the aroma of mandarin oranges and mint is amazing! The taste also spreads in the mouth as if the aroma is spreading as it is! It tastes like a cough medicine for children and a little bit of sweetness... It doesn't feel like sake at all! It's a very easy to drink sake, but I personally didn't like the taste...

__________ Junmai Ginjo-shu Rice polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol 16 Sake Degree +4 Personal Rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆ Impression A light taste that is typical of Hakurakusei, the ultimate food sake. Although it has a strong alcohol taste, it has a pineapple flavor. It has a strong alcohol taste, but it has a slight pineapple flavor to it. The taste was alcohol, sweetness, bitterness, and spiciness, in that order. The aftertaste is slightly bitter, but finishes refreshingly. When drunk by itself, it seemed like a bland sake, but when paired with sashimi, it brought out the flavors of both the sake and the ingredients, making it an interesting sake to pair 🍶.

Tastes like banana juice made into sake! Slightly acidic, but it mixes nicely with the banana flavor that spreads throughout the mouth. Easy to drink with a gentle aftertaste. I would buy it again if I could find it, but when I looked it up, I found out that it was a test brew, so it was shipped in limited quantities... too bad...

I took a sip with high expectations from the Sekiya Brewing Company, which makes Sora. Quite fresh...! It has a strong sweetness but no peculiarity at all! The fresh taste that is typical of nama-shu spreads! Too good! I will buy it next time I see it 🍶.

__________ Junmai Daiginjo Rice polishing ratio 39 Alcohol 15 Sake degree: Undisclosed Personal evaluation: ★★★★ Impression Aroma: Subdued ginjo aroma. Compared to Kangiku 39, which has the same rice polishing ratio, it is not as dry and light, but it is quite refreshing. I thought the taste was quite different depending on whether it was hi-ire or not... When you put it in your mouth, it has a clean sweetness that is typical of Junmai Daiginjyo, and then it goes dry and goes away. There is no bitterness because of the 39 polished rice. Compared to other Junmai Daiginjos, the umami and sweetness are stronger... You can feel the acidity, but the sweetness prevails. After that, it's a bit dry. After swallowing, the lingering taste on the back of the tongue and in the throat is rather long.
