Junmai Sake Sake rice: 100% Yukihikari produced in Nakafurano Rice polishing: 60 Alcohol: 14% abv. I have visited Takasago Brewery before, but Hourabuki... it was like a first for me... Gentle aroma of rice 🌾, sweetness of rice typical of junmai sake, mild 🍶 that does not interfere with food.

Junmai Ginjo Rice polishing: 55 Alcohol: 15%. Local sake on a business trip to Sapporo. Goryo from Kamikawa Taisetsu... a pure Junmai Ginjo🍶. The ginjo aroma is moderate, and the taste is well-balanced with a strong sweetness and rice flavor.

Unfiltered unpasteurized sake Yeast: Association No. 9 Rice polishing: 65 Alcohol: 17%. The top aroma is moderately refreshing and citrusy. The bubbles are strong and the taste is fruity, citrusy with a slightly bitter aftertaste, grapefruit-like... mmmm, yummy 😋. And yet, at 17 degrees alcohol, it is very drinkable! Good for when you are tired and want a refreshing cocktail. ⤴️

Junmai Ginjo Orange Sake rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing: 50%. Alcohol: 16% abv. I was on a business trip to Fukuoka, so I decided to try some local sake... Nabeshima, a classic Saga sake! The store has 9 different types of Nabeshima alone, which is amazing! The orange label of the middle bottle 🍊 It has a refreshing ginjo aroma, with a full-bodied, sweet rice flavor, good acidity and a slightly bitter taste! Pair it with seared mackerel...awesome! 👍

Junmai Sake Sake rice: Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima Rice polishing: 65 Alcohol: 14% abv. Very well-balanced taste! The taste is very balanced 🍶. It has a slight sweetness, acidity, and rice flavor, yet the slightly low alcohol content makes it easy to drink! This is the kind of wine you drink too much of 👍

MOONLIGHTING 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! 🍶

Chilled and grated Sake rice: Omachi Yeast: No additives Rice polishing: 60 Alcohol: 17%. At the Tokyo University of Agriculture tasting event🍶! 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 👍.

Special Junmai Sake Rice polishing: 60 Alcohol: 15%. At a tasting event🍶 at Tokyo University of Agriculture! 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.
