ShiratakiSEVEN純米大吟醸原酒 超淡麗50%精米

The wine has a clear water color and a strong fruity aroma. The mouthfeel is as clear as the water color, and the fruity aroma escapes through the nose. The rich grain and pear-like flavor that overflows with the aroma, and the heavy lingering taste and bitterness that lingers on the tongue. This is a gorgeous bottle with a wonderful balance of appearance, taste, and thickness.

Refreshing citrus aroma, cloudy glass-like cloudy taste. Viscous mouthfeel, rich and dry with a slight bitterness, and a refreshingly crisp and strong finish. The first half and the second half have opposite impressions, but they are well integrated.

Aiyama 100% junmai sake with a Light rice-derived aroma, tangy mouthfeel. Aromatic sharpness, thick lingering rice flavor and bitterness. The full aroma is pleasant. The sake has a rough dry taste with strong alcohol in a good sense, but the sake degree is +1.2, which is above the normal level.

I bought it because of the dry recommendation. My personal opinion is that it is dry, but watery and lacks backbone. It is easy to drink, but it lacks the flamboyance that one would expect from a daiginjo. We will re-evaluate if the taste changes after opening the bottle. On the second day after opening the bottle, it became a little richer, but there was no significant change.

Slightly yellowish, slightly cloudy water color. Aroma of fresh rice and molasses. A sharp and mellow taste. The bitter taste of wood and sugar accentuates the rich umami. It is sweet or rather delicious. Simple but intricately intertwined with a high degree of perfection. The bitterness and umami remain on the tongue for a long time. I like it very much. Impressive balance and umami, I can recommend this bottle to anyone with confidence.

The water color is reminiscent of a slightly cloudy freeze. Fruit and rice graininess, with a clear sake core aroma. Thick and sweet mouthfeel, a little foam and freshness. Moderately light citrus acidity. The sweetness and acidity mix and turn into a rounded umami. High-grade citrus bitterness without astringency. Refreshing and rich aftertaste. There is a hurdle to get used to the sweetness. However, the highly balanced taste with a focus on mellowness and the harmony of viscous sweetness and freshness that feels like the opposite is one-of-a-kind. We enjoyed it deliciously.

Almost clear water color. Ginjo aroma with a hint of fruit. Smooth mouthfeel with a hint of fragrance. The sweetness and umami of the rice combine to give a strong flavor. The bitterness reminds one of nuts, which is added to the nourishment. A strong aftertaste that lingers on the tongue for a long time. The impression is that the quality of sake has been strengthened recently. The perfection of the first saké is very high, and it is exquisite and does not make you tired of drinking. The new sake is a particular favorite, thank you very much.

Fusano Kankiku晴日 Special Yell 純米大吟醸 山田錦×赤磐雄町 生原酒

The cork comes out with a pusher, reminding one of champagne on a special occasion. The wine has a syrup-like shine and a near-transparent water color. The ginjo aroma is reminiscent of cream with a hint of lemon. Viscous but not resistant, with a bubbly mouthfeel. After a moment of sparkling sharpness, the flavor is a happy combination of mature fruit sweetness and bitterness. After the strong sweetness, there is a pleasant lingering bitterness that is characteristic of Kangiku. After a few days, the bubbly sensation settles down to some extent, and a watery sensation is felt, albeit only to an extent of error. The right way to enjoy it is to drink it on a special occasion and be surprised by the bubbles.

Clear water color with a sense of viscosity. A clear, sweet aroma of rice. The mouthfeel is honey-like sugar. It is mildly sweet with a slight heat. The long aftertaste is citrus bitterness reminiscent of kabosu. Nice inorganic heat. Hard to classify into genres, quite edgy. A clear, hot sake, that's the image.

Clear water color with a slight viscosity. Mellow rice sweetness, clear molasses aroma, sweet and fresh. There is no fruitiness in a good sense. Sticky and sweet mouthfeel. There is a sharpness in the sweetness, bitterness in the sharpness, and the bitterness turns into a strong rice flavor. The lingering taste is deeply astringent and sugary, reminiscent of charred oak. Heat lingers on the tongue. I thought it was mainly sweetness, but it is mainly natural and complex taste development in the second half. If you ask me if I like it, I prefer it less sweet, but for those who like "sugar without much fruitiness," I definitely recommend it. Another new experience for me, thanks.

Beautiful and clear water color. The aroma is still clear, crisp, and fresh. The mouthfeel is clean and sharp. Pale but full-bodied fruity sweetness, with a fleeting but effective citrus snap. The bitterness of the citrus peel overflows gradually. The palate is light but full of fruity sweetness. "Wow, this is delicious..." It's not thin. It's not thin, but it's a clear sake with a high level of coherence. It has a high level of perfection that is distinctive but not too sharp. The more you drink it, the better it gets, and I highly recommend it.

It is a thin cloudy white with fog-like origami. Ginjo aroma reminiscent of cream. After the sharpness, there is a rich sweetness. Light roughness, with a taste like a combination of honey and sugar cane bitterness. A sweet and rich flavor follows. The aftertaste is strong sweetness and bitterness. As it is oregarari, the impression is still sweet. My personal preference would be for the yellow Denshogiku.

The color of the water is almost transparent. Light pineapple and ginjo aroma. A crisp mouthfeel. The balance of bitterness and sweetness produces a strong citrus bitterness and alcohol. The image is that of a gimlet. It has a refreshing aftertaste, but leaves a very strong impression. It should be served chilled like a short cocktail. Most of the experimental bottles are not good enough, but this bottle is good enough. It is a good bottle for different tastes.

Light blue in color with a relatively dark yellowish hue. Slightly refreshing sugar and ginjo aroma. It has a thick and crisp aroma that comes through the nose. The strong sweetness of the rice spreads in parallel, and an intense bitterness, mainly citrus, follows just a little later. The aftertaste is mainly bitterness, citrus and a little sugar. Each of these flavors is strong, but they are not the unpleasant harshness that is often associated with sake, and there is no mistaking the taste. The taste development is not like sake but like whiskey, so the appropriate word is "strong" rather than "sweet" or "spicy". The taste is strong, and even the alcohol content is strong. The spirit of the brewer is so strong that he is betting everything on the satisfaction of the drink. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is one of the genres of Sono-Sangiku. I would like to recommend it to all Sannokiku lovers.

The color of the water is almost as transparent as possible. Transparent and refreshing aroma of rice. Smooth and crisp to thick rice flavor. The sweetness and bitterness of molasses produced from the flavor. While maintaining a sense of transparency, the refreshing umami flavors are intricately intertwined, leading to a deep and long aftertaste that lingers on the tongue forever. I was told that it is the core part of Kiku. It has a great balance and is best served cold. It is the core of Shungiku, a bottle without a doubt.

The color is almost transparent with a hint of yellow. Smooth ginjo aroma reminiscent of cream, not unpleasant. It has a cool crispness for a moment, and a flavor like a combination of honey and sugar cane bitterness. The taste is sweet and delicious, with a bubbly feel that dances on the tongue. The accent of bitterness reminds of aromatic wood. The finish is thick and deep, with a mass of flavor that stays with you for a long time and lets you enjoy every taste. The tongue can't forget the taste. This is one of the most delicious wines I have ever tasted. This is a bottle that paradoxically utilizes the richness of Yamadanishiki in a good way. This is a deeply flavorful bottle that we recommend to all kinds of people.

Transparent light blue with a hint of yellow. Tropical fruits, cream, and freshly baked sponge cake. Smooth, transparent mouthfeel and bubbles dancing on the tongue. A mass of sweetness reminiscent of molasses or baked goods. The sweetness glides refreshingly down the throat as sweetness. All that remains is a rich aroma and a bit of heat. The aftertaste is graceful, as if there was no such thing as a rich sweetness. It has the image of a "Western-style confectionery with a Japanese flavor," but the rich sweetness is not to everyone's taste. If you prefer a rich and sweet Junmai Daiginjo, I highly recommend it.

The color is almost transparent with a slight yellowish tinge. It has a smooth flavor reminiscent of cream and a rich molasses aroma. After a moment of crispness, it has a rich sweetness like a combination of honey and sugar cane. The flavor overflows from the bitterness of the wood accent. It is not only rice, but also a mass of highly complete flavor that is intricately intertwined with many other things. It has a gorgeous aroma that fills the nostrils and a crisp, heavy aftertaste that combines sharpness and resonance. Very delicious. The entry is full of sweetness, but the wonderful umami renews the development of the palate as if nothing has happened, and then the savory flavors and lingering aftertaste finish it off. This is a bottle of wine with impressive balance and flavor that I would recommend to anyone.

Mild transparency like a frosted glass. Faint scent of nuts. Very fine gas and rice flavor in the mouth. From a little bitterness to an infinitely thin sweetness. The aftertaste fades away with a cool sensation like a mint flavored rum. It lives up to its light name, but it's not too light. A very experimental bottle.
