Order the ayu fish dish with ayu fish masamune 🐟.
It's a Niigata-like junmai that I don't drink much these days, but it became a little milder after the second cup of inoguchi and a little sweeter in the third cup.
Strange!

This is the driest sake in the "Ona" series of Chu-shu. Although it has a sake strength of +10, it combines a soft mouthfeel with a full flavor. It can be paired with any food, but it is an excellent match with Japanese food.

Carp series we encounter often these days.
Today it's the light blue Summer Carp.
It is a draft sake made by polishing Nagano rice to 59% and brewed with glutinous rice in a four-stage hot-kettle process.
This year, white malted rice was used for some of the malted rice to bring out a more refreshing taste.
It has a firm, elegant sweetness reminiscent of cotton candy, white bean jelly fruit punch, lychee, and wasanbon. It also has a mild acidity, and its refreshing taste is truly a carpe for summer!

I've been encountering them a lot lately.
Today we have Orange Carp 🍊.
The finish is reminiscent of the sweetness of a tangerine, the acidity and freshness of an orange. It is described as a dry type, yet characterized by a thick, syrupy sweetness and flavor.

This is a limited edition junmai sake that has been selected from storage tanks that have been allowed to mature over a summer in a sake tasting called "nemikiri (drinking through)" to preserve its flavor in the bottle. The brewery's message is that they want their sake to be enjoyed with the flavors of autumn and winter.
It is a seasonal sake brewed by Miyai-Sakura.

A super-rare, high-end brand, Jyushiyo's superb series!
Fruity sweetness. Fruity sweetness, yet refreshing. The mysterious taste is a wonder.
Daiginjo-Moroshiroshu has a well-balanced and delicate flavor that combines a gorgeous ginjo aroma and fresh fruitiness. The clear aroma of white peaches and melon is elegant, and the fresh fruitiness and refreshing acidity outline the sweetness, ending with a clear crispness.

I rarely see tangerines. ‼️ I was so excited lol!
I had a complex sweet and sour taste and chimed in.
The aroma is reminiscent of mild Japanese citrus fruits such as hassaku and iyokan.
The taste also has a balance of sweetness and acidity reminiscent of citrus. It has a clear and transparent structure that keeps you from getting tired of drinking it. The unique flavor of Fukunohana, which is different from any other sake rice, can be fully enjoyed.
Tangerine is a new addition to Shinmasa's "Colors" series of fire-aged sake.

For the first time, I was taken to a chanko restaurant in Ryogoku.
Since we were there, we had a bottle of sake with an original label.
It is an original product of Ohashi Sake Shop, which has been in business in Ryogoku since the Meiji era.

Hiyoroshi- a well thought out balance of sweetness and acidity.
[This season, the sake level was set to minus. Harmony of richness, umami, and acidity
This season, the sake level was set to minus for the season using a single Kumamoto yeast.
This hiyaoroshi has been carefully balanced in terms of sweetness and acidity by increasing the acidity level.

Sake pairing at a ramen restaurant: ⁉️
And you could choose! Nabeshima, Tatenogawa, Saku no Hana, etc.
At the heart of this sake's flavor is a moderately ripe rice flavor, interwoven with ripe grapefruit and herbal tea sensations to evoke the autumn season. Surrounding it are the lustrous nuances that only Nabeshima can offer, along with a subtle gassy feel, and it is also full of captivating charm.

Lovely ginkgo label 😆.
Gohyakumangoku rice harvested in Shimane is polished in-house and carefully brewed. The sake is fermented vigorously, resulting in a dry junmai sake with umami and sharpness. The sake is pressed in the spring, hi-ire it, and let it mature slowly in the brewery during the summer, and only available seasonally in the fall, when its roundness and umami are revealed.

The first cup, hiyayoroshi, was served lukewarm.
The new sake brewed in winter is matured in the brewery over the summer and matures at a low temperature in good balance, giving it the best flavor. The label depicts a scene from the ancient city of Nara, a World Heritage Site."
Slightly dry, with a mildly matured flavor that is pleasant to the palate.

This time, fish labels.
The world view of "On a night like this..." was given shape by ceramic artist Waka Horigome.
The theme is "Animals of Shinshu looking up at the moon," and the thunderbirds that appear on the labels of our doburoku and amazake are depicted as well as their friends.
