Kamotsuru純米酒 ワイン酵母仕込み純米

This low-alcohol sake is more like a white wine than any other sake I have ever tasted, with low acidity and high sweetness from wine yeast. When I did a blind test, I found that the top aroma was also wine-like, so I could have mistaken it for white wine. The ingredients are listed as rice and rice koji. I wonder if it would go well with western style dishes.

Kaneizumi is another brand of Aihara Shuzo, famous for Amego no Tsuki. This white lightning bolt is a spot product. On the palate, it has an elegant and discreet mix of sweetness and acidity, with a sharp finish that cuts through with a touch of bitterness! The bitterness is a nice accent, making it a very tasty sake that goes well with the season 😋.

Ordered at a bar I stopped by on my way home from a business trip to Osaka😊. It's basically light and dry 🍶, but it has a fruity aroma and a good overall balance. It has a sharp aftertaste and can be paired with a variety of entrées! I heard it's written in kanji as "mouren" 😃.

They call it "Jinden" instead of "Kanda." It is a new brand🍶 with a low milling ratio of 90%, using Kumamoto's native No. 9 yeast, and is a realization of the "Domaine Wasumi-cho all the way" where sake is brewed using only locally grown rice. The aroma is subdued, but in the mouth, it has a robust umami of rice, a subtle fruity taste, and a nice lingering acidity that follows afterwards 😄. It has a nice sharpness that is close to dryness.

I was told that it is a limited-quantity sake that can only be purchased at special dealers in the Kyushu area, so I bought the last bottle at Sumiyoshi Shuhan in Hakata Station during a recent business trip 🍶. It has a sweet and sour aroma like green apple, a smooth mouthfeel, and a sweet and sour taste that spreads in the mouth and has a nice sharp aftertaste 😊. The assertion of the acidity that rises especially in the latter half is pleasant!

Small-capacity, easy-to-drink can type. This is the second can following the "Dewazakura Ginjo Can". It is a classic Yamagata sake with a rich, mellow flavor that is quite robust, and is suitable for sipping in small sips. ☺️ It is a versatile sake that can be paired with any dish, but the grilled Hokke fish was the best match 😊.

Miyazaki Prefecture 🍶. You can't find it in liquor stores or supermarkets in Hiroshima city, so I bought it online🙂. It is a four-stage brewing process using "Hanakagura," Miyazaki Prefecture's preferred rice for sake brewing, and is mentioned as a sake with a clean, umami flavor. A classic type with a rich flavor and a mellow aroma that spreads in the mouth as you drink it. It has a little bit of alciness 🤔. I think it is suitable for a mealtime drink as it has a smooth aftertaste 😊It goes well with cheese 🧀!

Hana Hato is famous for its Kijo sake. I don't like too much sweet sake, so I wanted something refreshing to drink in the hot summer, so I chose this one 😁. As the name "dry" suggests, it is a refreshingly light and dry sake suitable for summer! It has a slightly alkaline taste, but the mouthfeel is slightly fruity and the aftertaste is crisp and smooth.

The word "limited" is weak... The sake dealer Mr. Yamada's original "sixth sense" that leaves it to the inspiration of the drinker 🍶 The rice polishing ratio, sake degree, and other specs are also undisclosed. The bottle was opened with excitement: ☺️ The nose has a slight pineapple flavor, and on the palate, there is a distinct pineapple 🍍juice 😋. Anyway, it's a fruity and modern-leaning nama-shu, a summer sake! I wonder if there is also a "Type B" since it is labeled as "Type A".

Shizuoka sake named after the Buddha Amitabha, which means infinite life, and made with 35% polished Yamadanishiki for the koji rice and 50% polished Miyamanishiki for the kake rice. It is a limited edition sake that is shipped only twice a year. ☺️ As one would expect from a daiginjo, it has a pear-like fruity aroma, juicy and full of flavor, and a crisp, clear aftertaste 😋. The 1,600 yen range for these specs is very cost-effective! Served with grilled Hokke (Japanese bonito) ♪

Due to the time limit of the office's summer party, this was the last selected drink 🍶. I heard there are black and white labels, but I'm not sure which one it is💦. When you drink it, a fruity sweetness like white peaches softly spreads in your mouth. Then, it was neutralized by a moderate acidity and quickly quenched my thirst 😊. It has a light sharpness and is easy to drink in summer 🍶!

First "W" 😄 at a summer party at my workplace. The "W" stands for three meanings: Watanabe sake brewery (watanabe), the world (world), and laughter (warai). This is the first time I have heard of the sake rice Koratoh, but it seems to be a very rare variety of sake rice that is also called "phantom sake rice. The fragrant fruity aroma and the sweet melon-like sweetness in the mouth are the most gorgeous of all the sake we drank tonight! The acidity followed so quickly that it was gone in no time at all 😁.

The third drink at the office's summer party 🍶. It is a challenge sake brewed with rice rice "Nihonbare". It has a clear, dry impression with a clean aftertaste, but the aroma is surprisingly gorgeous 😁. It matches very well with grilled fish dishes 🍶.

The second drink at the summer party at work I requested a low-alcohol, easy-to-drink sake, and this was recommended to me. The impression is that it is a summer sake with a slightly stronger fruity taste. ☺️ It is fresh and easy to drink, and the acidity is soft, just like a white wine 😋.

At the summer party at work. The first drink after the beer 🍺 was chosen because of the name 😊. It is a summer version of "Yamamoto" made with a special yeast that produces a lot of malic acid. It is indeed easy to drink with low al 🍶 and the acidity seems to complement the food. ☺️

The sake is made from 100% Hiroshima-grown 70% polished rice from Nakanosei-Shin Senbon, using subterranean water from Gokurakuji Mountain. The mouthfeel is clean and classic, with a slight alkalinity. It is slightly dry. The sourness comes later, followed by bitterness. It is easy to drink as a mid-meal sake because it wears off quickly!

It is named after Kamoizumi's introductory standard sake, with the idea of being "the first bottle". It has a slight amber color. When you drink it, you can taste the umami of the rice, followed by a soft bitterness and a clean finish. It is an all-purpose sake that goes well with food 😄.

On my way home from a business trip to Fukuoka, I had a drink at a restaurant in Hakata City: ☺️ It is brewed with locally produced "Yume Issen" rice, which was developed in Fukuoka Prefecture, and its catchphrase is "slightly dry and full of flavor". I especially liked the fruity aroma, but the sweetness was kept in check.

Kamotsuru Shuzo, a sake brewery led by four toji (master brewers), brewed this one-time fire-fermented summer-only sake by So Toji Tomoyasu, who is in charge of the brewery. The label features a picture of a blue sky with swallows flying through it, and while it is dry and light, it has a refreshing summer sake-like aroma that runs through the mouth, which is a perfect match 😆. It is a well-balanced sake with a refreshing and light flavor that matches well with food 🍶.

I was attracted by the deep blue bottle and the seasonal pop-up sign 😀 I bought it. The aroma is fresh fruitiness like fresh melon, the palate has a soft sweet taste and a slightly effervescent feeling, and the acidity spreads in the mouth and then quickly breaks off... I can feel the high degree of perfection that the brewer has calculated with precision😊It is a really dangerous sake that you can't stop drinking because it is low in alcohol (^_^...) The third photo is a snack that my son got at the arcade that we had together 😁.
