The drunker I get, the spicier I tend to want it, but when there is a time lag between the serving of the sake and the serving of the snacks, I tend to want it a little less spicy! It is mellow and tasty, with just the right amount of acidity to make me addicted to it, even though I am not a big fan of strong acidic sake!

Quite my favorite dry junmai ginjo. It has a sake meter of +7, and I think this is the perfect level of spiciness for the first glass. The drunker I get, the spicier I want it, so I like to start with this level. Just the right balance of umami and spiciness.

I'm not a big fan of light, dry beer, but I love light, dry sake! I had it hot, and it was so refreshing that it made me want to eat something rather oily than something salty!

Fruity, not pungent. But it is not watery or impersonal, and it tastes as if it sincerely conveys only deliciousness. Personally, I prefer it to be a little more messy and spicy.

Fruity and not spicy, it leaves a sour taste on the tongue after the drink is downed, perfect for the first glass or when you are in the mood for a light drink.

It is said that he is a pioneer of junmai sake, a charismatic sake (I am ashamed to say that I did not know that...). The brewery also recommends heating it to 60 degrees Celsius. What a delicious taste! I had it cold and hot, but I prefer the balance of umami and dryness when it's warmed up.

My kind of sake! The clear mouthfeel is dry as claimed, but it has a rich, umami acidity that I want to savor and drink. And the pickled shirasu (baby sardines) as a snack is a great invitation to drink... The lukewarm temperature is perfect, I love this restaurant!

Sweet! Even people who don't like alcohol are immediately fooled by its fruity sweetness and the feeling that it goes down their throat without any kind of drag.

It is the type of sake I don't drink very often. The waiter recommended it to me as "umaguchi with a unique flavor, not dry, but..." So I ordered it cold. It is not dry, but it has a unique flavor and acidity that leaves a soft aftertaste. I could have enjoyed it without a side dish.

The umami flavor comes first, making you think it is sweet at first, but the aftertaste is refreshing and delicious. The aftertaste is refreshing and delicious. It has such a gentle flavor that you can enjoy it without any snacks. Full of umami!

It was introduced as a dry sake, but it is fruity and easy to drink with no uncomfortable feeling in the throat. It has a strong umami taste.
