GMN4
This is another sake that I buy every year.
It is a well-known sake, so it is always warmed to lukewarm by default, but it is as pleasant as ever when lukewarm.
The attack is soft due to the low alcohol content, but the acidity spreads out well and the flavor is ample.

I have wanted to try it for a long time, but never had a chance to drink it, so I bought it for the first time.
When you put it in your mouth, the fruity and soft sweetness spreads out at once, but it is not alcoholic or heavy, and has a gentle and pleasant flavor.
I felt that this gentleness was due to the fact that it was made by a female master brewer.

When warmed to lukewarm, it has a stronger acidity and a slightly spicy, powerful flavor.
The acidity is more pronounced in the mouth when served lukewarm, and the slightly spicy taste gives it a powerful flavor.

津島屋純米吟醸 廣島産八反錦 瓶囲い ひやおろし
GMN4
The spiciness wears off rather quickly, with a hint of umami at the end.
When heated, the acidity spreads quickly, and the spiciness subsides, and the lingering umami is more pleasant. Personally, I found it even better when lukewarm.

I was looking for a sake to drink on the internet when I first saw this sake and ended up buying it.
The taste is well-balanced acidity and spiciness spreads in the mouth, but the spiciness is more assertive in the aftertaste and leaves a robust flavor. The alcohol content of 18.5 is probably the reason for this.
The aroma becomes milder and the flavor more expansive when lukewarm, but the spiciness also becomes stronger.
It is a powerful sake that does not overpower the palate. The flavor will not disappear even when served with strong flavored dishes.
However, due to the high alcohol content, the sake is heavy, so it is not to everyone's liking.

Ichinenfudo特別純米酒 ひやおろし
GMN4
I bought this sake in the fall when I tend to buy a lot of sake, and it was the first time I drank Ichinenfudo.
It has a long, lingering finish with a hint of bitterness and umami before fading away.
The spiciness comes out a little more when it is lukewarm, but the overall flavor is mellower and the umami spreads quickly, and the lingering taste is pleasantly mild and umami.
I prefer it warmed up.

Haneya純米吟醸 ひやおろし
GMN4
Among the many sake that are available in Toyama, I would like to mention Haneya's hiyaoroshi as one of the most delicious sake.
The hiyaoroshi is a very pleasant sake, with a good balance in the mouth, yet the fruity flavor is not too sharp, and the aftertaste is beautiful. It has a nice balance of salinity.
The taste is more rounded than that of a regular junmai ginjo, so I felt it was a finish in which one could enjoy the good qualities of hiyaoroshi.

Kinoenemasamune純米吟醸 秋あがり
GMN4
When you drink it, a refreshing flavor spreads.
At worst, it has an ordinary and rather characterless flavor for a wine made after the fall season, but at best, it has a well-balanced and cohesive flavor.
After a few days in the refrigerator after opening the bottle, the taste became more coherent and mellow.

I personally like to drink sake in the winter/spring when it is new, or in the fall when it is autumn-aged or hiyaoroshi, so I bought some autumn sake when I found it.
I had never tried Chitose-Tsuru before, but I found it to have a pleasant taste with a soft mouthfeel and a good balance of acidity.

I ran out of sake at home, which was a rare occurrence, and was looking for something to buy at a nearby supermarket when I found this. I was grateful that I could buy Nabeshima at the supermarket.
I have often had junmai ginjo with Nabeshima, and I wondered if I had ever had a special junmai sake before.
The aftertaste is also pleasantly mild and lingering.
I enjoyed it with sashimi and dried fish as a side dish, so it was a good balance.
