Rice polishing ratio 65 Studying for the second examination. Transparent, pale, crystalline, silver Plump. grapefruit, yellow apple, pear, honeysuckle, chervil, bay leaf, cooked rice, sour cream First impression: rather strong, sweet: mellow, acidity: firm, fine, bitterness: with umami, balance: ample, thick, lingering: rather long Compared to Junmai Ginjo, the aroma of melon and flowers is a little weaker, but the green and rice aroma is stronger. The aroma and flavor are not messy and this is a refined Junmai sake.

Junmai-shu Juji-Asahi Gohyakumangoku Gohyakumangoku produced in Shimane Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol content 15 Sake degree +10 Yeast used: Kyokai 701 Slightly dark straw color. It has a simple sweet aroma with nuances of loquat and lychee. Straightforward and dry. The fullness and minerality make it drinkable, but there is nothing superfluous about it as much as the color. The acidity comes slowly afterwards. The wine is unfiltered. The impression does not change much when heated.

Fruity aroma of white peaches and melon. Not necessarily floral, but hard overall. The mouthfeel is firm, but the texture is smooth, not sharp, and even gentle. The palate is firm but smooth in texture, with no sharp edges, even gentle. Although the alcohol content is high, the wine does not explode in the aftertaste and finishes quietly. I would like to try other sakes as well. The koji rice is 60% Gohyakumangoku and the kake rice is 60% Tsuyahime. In the second version, the original sake is a mixture of No. 7 fast brewing and additive-free raw sake. The rice is the same for the raw yeast as well: gohyaku/tsuyahime.

Slightly yellowish. Sweet aroma of mango and passion fruit. Sharp acidity. Firm body coupled with burnt nuances and a fairly low center of gravity. Coolness on the finish. It gives the impression of being a man's sake, perhaps due to Hita's hard water. It is not a trendy type of sake, but this kind of austere sake is necessary.

The aroma is fruity and gorgeous, but it is not fluffy and calm. The mouthfeel is full but clear. It has a soft quality as it is named after a female Toji. It should be noted that the acidity is beautiful and there is a lot of it. It is very high level. The master of a favorite shochu bar gave it to us as a thank you. We thank him.

Following "Chie Bijin" in kanji and "Chiebijin" in hiragana, the first new product in five years is "CHIEBIJIN" in alphabet. It sold out immediately at liquor stores and department stores in Oita City. We purchased it from a liquor store in Bungo Takada. This junmai ginjo sake, which they say is brewed with white wine yeast, has a thick mouthfeel with a sweetness like biwa, contrary to its refreshing image. There is some foam. The thick and heavy acidity resonates and together with the oily texture gives a strong aftertaste. The recommendation is to use a wine glass, but it's more firm than refreshing, so an oinokuchi might be more suitable. When I heated it up, the grapefruit-like fruitiness came out and I had a surprisingly good impression.

Purchased at a product exhibition in TOKIWA (^_^) It has a fruity aroma of banana, white peach and mango. It has a refreshing and mellow sweet taste when chilled, but the acidity stands out when heated. It has little miscellaneous flavors, so I enjoyed it in a wide range of temperatures. 4.0/5.0 The following is a quote from the sake brewing website. This junmai-shu was created by unraveling the literature of sake brewing in the Edo period and arranging it in a modern way. It has won the highest gold medal in the Kanzake (heated sake) contest.

The pride of Oita, Nakano Shuzo's Chievijin, limited edition sake for January. The recipe is closed to the public and seems to change every year... The 2021 is slightly effervescent with a neutral sweetness. Clear sake with no hint of alcohol. 4.0/5.0
