Today we have Vega from Abeno, which comes with a nice acidity. I wouldn't call it fizzy, but you can feel a little bit of petitiveness on the tongue. Not much sweetness.

Yamashiroya瑠水 IMADEYA頒布会限定仕込み
遊さん
Sake of the month for November. Sake made from sake rice called Ipponshime. It is a clean and refreshing sake. It lacks a little umami. There is no aftertaste. It is a delicious sake, just a matter of taste preference.

I bought it at Wadaya in Oimachi because they started to carry Abeno. No effervescence, modest aroma, slightly acidic. The taste is clear. I am glad to be able to buy Abé.

Sake of the month for October. Sake made from Hinohikari sake rice. It has an easy-drinking fruity mouthfeel with umami coming later. It has a mild taste with no harshness.

Sparklers continued from last week. Back this week. Less acidic, more sweet. Totally different. You might not recognize it without the sparkler label. It tasted like the end of summer and the coming of winter rather than autumn.
Japanese>English
遊さん
Opened a bottle of sparkler, although it was a little past its prime. As usual, the balance of clear sweetness, umami and acidity is just right. I didn't have fireworks this year. The back of the bottle is still in the fridge, so I'm looking forward to it.

The aroma and the first sip is completely muscat. Why sake has such a taste.... It's so delicious. But it overflows quite a bit at first.

Kamonishiki荷札酒 短稈渡船 純米大吟醸 しぼりたて
遊さん
Fresh & fruity, petite type. There is no cloying taste, and just a hint of bitterness at the end. I thought it would go well with grilled salt fish, and today I had Usubahagi sashimi.

I had it recommended to me last year and it was a blissfully delicious sake 🤗.

ma-ki--san, I enjoyed the old Gohyakumangoku sake that I drank in the past, but this short-stalked Watabune was exceptional! I would like to try another sake rice next time!

First of all, it smells sweet, like an elegant sweet. I quite like it at this point. The alcohol content is 13 degrees. It is a fire-brewed sake, but quite fruity. The clear sweet flavor lingers on the tongue.

翠玉純米大吟醸 亀の尾
遊さん
Akita sake! Fruity, sweet and delicious. Delicious. Kame-no-o is more refreshing than Yamadanishiki. The alcohol content is 16%, but it is a little strong. It goes well with simmered dishes with a strong flavor.

With grilled bonito and Basho swordfish from Kamimachi Ikezawa Honten in Kochi. The sake was dry. Not the usual Ding's fruity, but umami-guchi type. It was unexpected but satisfying!

鳥海山辛口純米酒

A friend of mine from Akita sent me this sake, which I had never heard that TDK was working together to produce sake. It is not a very distinctive sake, but it tastes good as an everyday food sake. It seems to go well with everything.

It is lighter than Tasake's regular series of special junmai sake. Easy to drink. This is delicious. I would like to drink it again when I have a chance!

Tokutei Yumachi that has been sitting in the fridge for six months! Too smooth on the palate. I am happy to feel the delicious rice. This is delicious but hard to find...

Hello, Yuu-san!
I see you are drinking a very nice bottle of Jikin-sama 🤤.
I'd love to drink it, but I can't get my hands on it 😅.
I'd like to drink it someday 🤤.

宮泉純米吟醸 彗星にごり 生酒

Wadaya original in Oimachi. This is very tasty. The fizziness was quite strong and the lid blew off when I opened the bottle. I highly recommend it. It is a shame that it is an original sake.

Takijiman純米酒 神の穂 80%
遊さん
Sake of the month for June. This sake is made from Mie sake rice "Kami no Ho", Mie yeast, and Mie brewing water. It is soft on the palate, but has a slightly bitter, cloying taste on the finish. The aroma is almost imperceptible. The sake itself is light. I would have liked to taste a little more of the rice. The bitterness and miscellaneous tastes at the end are strongly felt.

Imanaya GUITO! vol. 5 May Sake. Very sweet. The alcohol content was kept as low as possible to give it a gentle sweetness that will make you reach for it when you want to relieve stress or fatigue. It is indeed a good choice for a late night drink while watching a movie. But what to do with the sashimi afterwards?

Jikon純米吟醸 山田錦 無濾過生

Sake of January. We opened a bottle of Jikin, which we had kept in stock. It is fruity with a hint of sourness. The taste is stable. Sashimi of Shirakawa sea bream and steamed mahata with sake were served as snacks. It is the best.

This is my favorite sake of the Ding. It has the best fruity and sharp taste. It is a cool sake for hot summer.

This is my first time drinking the new modern version of Sentori. It has a fuller flavor than the old type, or rather, it has a feeling of lingering on the tongue. But it is Sentori, so it has a fresh flavor. I would like to try the raw sake as well.
