100% Omachi (grown in Okayama Prefecture), Polishing ratio 65%. It is made by Bodhi-zakari. The impression is similar to the past. It is watered and matured at low temperature. The ginjo aroma is also heavy with a hint of bodjimoto. When it is included in the mouth, it tastes like dried fruits and the sweetness and acidity spread and it is sharp. Despite the blue bottle, it has a thick and mellow taste. We enjoyed it in a relaxed atmosphere.

Misoshiki from Akita 20%, Akita Sakekomachi 80%. Polishing ratio 40%, Association No.6 yeast + Akari yeast You can feel the enthusiasm to challenge the taste you are looking for. The ginjo aroma is mild and rice-like. When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness and acidity like a white peach spreads at once, and the astringent taste is added at the end. The balance of spiciness, sweetness, acidity, bitterness and astringency is splendid. The yeast is also well matched, and the flavor expands as the temperature rises. There are some popular and friendly Akita sakes, but this is one of the most beautiful Akita sakes.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo Junmai Daiginjo Dewa Sanzu Polishing ratio 48% Yamagata 009 Brewed by Otokoyama Shuzo, the 17th brewery in 4 years. A bottle that I look forward to every time!

The aftertaste is smooth and clean. The taste is elegant. A beautiful sake.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo 100% Hatanishiki from Hiroshima Prefecture, 50% polishing ratio Kumamoto No.9 yeast, brewing No.1 or 2 This year, too. The world of Maruo stimulates the five senses. The soft texture of the sake gives way to a grapefruit-like fruitiness on the palate with a slight woody feel. From there, the flavor of the rice changes at once, and the strong acidity passes through the nose, and it becomes sharp at once. It is a full-bodied dynamic deep kiss. I was robbed again this year. After opening the bottle, you can let it sit for a while, but when it is gone, you are worried. It is a captive sake. Hats off to you.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo 100% Yamada Nishiki, Polishing ratio 50%. A glass of wine goes well with this wine. From the moment it is opened, it opens fully. It gives the impression that the flavor of the rice has been carefully calculated and delicately fostered to create a sense of unity. The fruitiness is there, but it is not too far removed from the rice, and the sweetness is just barely stopped by the rice. The characteristic acid also asserts itself modestly and makes you realize that it is a Yamawa sake. It will be stocked all year round.

This sake is a blend of Shokuban Junmai Ginjo, Junmai Ginjo and Tokubetsu Junmai brewed with Comet. It has a more complex taste and a stronger body than the standard blue label. It is a luxurious sake. It is also the strongest in terms of cost. The end is sharp and crisp. I want it to be a standard sake.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo Ihyakumangoku 65%, No.7 yeast, Sake degree +2.5, Acidity 2.8 Very fine sludge. The aroma of rice is typical of Japanese sake. In the mouth, the mellow rice flavor and the strong acidity are in perfect balance with a subtle sweetness that spreads like yogurt. It finishes with no lingering aftertaste. There is a lot of orage, but it is a drink that can be enjoyed without any miscellaneous flavors. If you heat it up to 45 degrees, the bitterness comes out strongly, making you swallow at first sip, but it settles down around 30 degrees and the umami envelops you. I'm glad I found it.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo 45% Yamada Nishiki It took a long time to open the bottle, and when it was opened at around 0℃, the overall impression was thin and the bitterness was strong. At around 10℃, it showed its true potential with well-balanced acidity and long lingering bitterness accompanied by grainy sweetness. From the second day, the best balance is fully asserted, and the personality of the golden ratio that cannot be beaten even in a drinking contest is released, and the aftertaste is closed with a pleasant bitterness. This is a wine where you can taste the flavor of the rice directly.

Omachi, No.9 yeast. There is a fruity taste of "Sorghum" in the attack, and a moderate acidity controls the sweetness. In the latter half, a strong to soft bitterness spices up the taste, and it closes with a slightly long aftertaste. Because it is a Junmai Daiginjo, it does not have an outstanding personality, but it is a limited storage that plays with bitterness.

Junmai Ginjo, Omachi, M type yeast. The attack is gassy and 🍍 type impression. Along with the milky flavor of sake lees peculiar to nigori, the bitterness softens the sweetness and makes it crispy. It is a tropical drink that suits the surf of Kujukuri. The best pairing is with dishes with strong individuality.

At Shunsai Dining Hachi, Sapporo City Yamada Nishiki 60, Tamaei 40, Polished 50%. Association No.9. The quality of the sake is more stable than Shiboritate, and the attack is elegant. The attack is elegant and the taste is full, even when heated. The mouthfeel is reminiscent of an understated melon that doesn't interfere with meals, and the full, mellow taste with Takayasu's characteristic acidity is followed by a sharp finish. I had an image of it as a man's sake, but maybe my impression has changed.
