Junmai Daiginjo Sake rice: Yamadanishiki produced in Okayama Prefecture Rice polishing: 50%. Alcohol: 16% abv. At a tasting at Tokyo University of Agriculture The brewery's head brewer himself poured the sake and we tasted it. It is a refreshing daiginjo with a good sweetness and a richness that would go well with a wide range of dishes👍.

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.

Yamahai Junmai-shu Rice polishing: 60 Alcohol: 16%. It has a calm and robust flavor that is typical of Yamahai. It has a strong rice aroma at the top, a thick richness, and a heavy aftertaste despite its 16% alcohol content, making it very drinkable.

Junmai Sake Rice polishing: 55 Alcohol: 15%. It has a calm rice aroma, which is typical of Junmai sake, but it also has a good draining effect, probably due to the low alcohol content of 15%. I still prefer Yumeshin.

Junmai Super Dry Sake rice: Hachitan-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Rice polishing: 60 Alcohol: 16%. Yes, super dry and refreshing! I guess it was a bit of a mistake to bring it to the end.

Junmai Daiginjo Sake rice: Yamadanishiki Rice polishing: 45 Alcohol: 16%. Dining at a Michelin-listed Japanese restaurant, which is not easy to find: 🍽️ The brands lined up are all from the high-end line... First up was a Junmai Daiginjo from Kuheiji, delicious! Delicious! Both the aroma and flavor are not too strong and easy to drink 🍶.
