Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-shu Direct Kumi
Sake rice: Yamadanishiki produced in Toyama
Rice polishing: 60
Alcohol: 16%.
This is the first time I have had this sake!
Gifu, a little rare to find in Kanto area!
It is very fresh as it seems to be directly pumped and unpasteurized sake!
The aroma at the top is slightly lactic 😊, the attack is strong, the taste has a clear fullness, a good sweetness, the taste is good but the alcohol is high and lingers a little on the tongue, the balance is very good! 👍
I wonder if it would go well with a slightly stronger flavored meal 🍽️ rather than a light one?
It is also an excellent unfiltered raw entry, a good sake! 🍶

I still prefer Omachi! It has a deep, rich, sweet, and somewhat complex taste that makes it very drinkable.
No additive yeast, which shows the brewery's attention to detail 👍.

Tasting a brand that I had never encountered before, in an environment where I was grateful for the opportunity to hear the brewer's story!
I was told that it is blended, so it is a slightly aged/mellow sake.

Special Junmai Sake Kura-Nama
Sake rice: Hitanishiki produced in Ibaraki
Yeast: Hitachi yeast
Rice polishing: 55
Alcohol: 16% abv.
Purchased at the souvenir shop at Hitachi Station during a business trip to Hitachi.
Ibaraki Prefecture has a surprisingly large number of sake breweries.
The flavor has a slightly subdued, clean rice aroma.
It has a freshness typical of nama-zake, and since it is not so assertive, it seems to go well with anything as a mid-meal drink.

Gekka
Alcohol: 14.5° C
An interesting brand with an interesting story of Sado and how a financier took over the management of the brewery and rebuilt it.
The impression is a little more subdued than what I have had before.
The label could be a little more informative.
