胡麻団子
The flavor is round and deeply penetrating. Although it is a junmai daiginjo, it is good to drink at room temperature with osechi as a mid-meal drink.
Let's make this year another year of drinking well!

胡麻団子
Tenka Nishiki is brewed in the facilities of Shimizu Seizaburo Shoten, a brewery known for its "Saku" brand of sake.
It has a gentle yet gorgeous grape-like aroma. On the tongue, the fruity freshness and the mild sweetness of the rice are both gentle and clear. The bitterness that forms the base of the wine balances the overall taste well, and the finish is elegant yet drinkable.

胡麻団子
Junmai Ginjo with 50% polished rice. With a refreshing aroma, it has a fresh and clear texture on the tongue with a very pleasant, slightly effervescent stimulus. After a moment, the juicy rice swells without any cloying taste and dominates the palate in one breath, leaving a lingering aftertaste that exceeds expectations, along with a moderate acidity.
It is best served well chilled in an aromatic glass. A dangerous gem that can be enjoyed endlessly.

The full rice flavor with a hint of aroma is strongly embodied in the mouth with a thick and juicy impression. The mellow flavor is a quintessential Yamahai Junmai unfiltered raw sake. While developing a deep sweetness, the aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing. It tastes better at room temperature than when it is cooled down.
It goes well with salty and strong food.

Purchased at the Hachioji Craft SAKE Festival 2024.
It has a fresh and moderate ginjo aroma, and when placed on the tongue, it has a classic sweetness and umami that is mature and easy to blend in with the palate. The full aroma runs through the mouth at once, and the exquisite bitterness and balance are maintained without sharpness, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

I was attracted by the stylish label and bought it. The more it rolls around on the tongue, the more the sweetness of the rice is enhanced, but there is no dullness in the aftertaste, and the slight bitterness is pleasant.
The best temperature is around Hanakairoe to Ryo-iroe.

A gem from the brewery that produced yeast No. 7.
The mild and straightforward sweetness, like that of a white bean, dominates the palate with just the right amount of umami. The lingering aftertaste is comparatively long, and the impression of fullness is pleasant while insisting on its straightforwardness.
The optimum temperature is around slightly cooled room temperature. Personally, I think it is a very good sake that can be drunk indefinitely.

The rice flavor with just the right amount of bitterness and saltiness dominates the palate, yet it maintains its freshness without becoming flabby, and for a junmai sake, it remains refreshing all the way down the throat. Nevertheless, the 90% rice polishing ratio makes it a high-level gem with a solid drinking experience.

It is so light that it is hard to believe that it is unfiltered, but the corners of the flavor have been beautifully shaved off, and it drinks like a gentle honey. The slight lingering umami flavor goes well with tempura, shellfish strings, etc.

Don't mind the tongue-twisting label.
As is typical of Junmai Daiginjos, it has a light, clear mouthfeel. The bitterness and acidity are restrained, but as it rolls down the palate, a rounded umami flavor gradually blooms. It is a strange gem that seems to be easy to drink, but the more you notice it, the more you stop to appreciate its depth of flavor.

It has a tangy texture and freshness, as is typical of nama-shu, with a fruity sweetness that spreads horizontally. The sharp bitterness in the back is transformed into a wonderfully rounded flavor when heated. An all-around great sake.
