ジョナジョナ
文化の日なので（？）気になっていたお酒を開栓。もち米四段、扁平精米、乳酸菌酒母、瓶火入れといったワザが使われている。
冷やして。
ぽわんと甘い香り。優しい口当たりに始まり、芯のあるジューシーな甘みと爽やかな酸味がいっぱいに広がってどこかヨーグルトを思わせる。
こたつで飲む冷たい日本酒もいいもんだ。

ジョナジョナ
Sake with a simple label and a typical Niigata name.
This is at room temperature.
It has a sweet banana aroma. It has a sweetness reminiscent of syrup, but it is not so strong, and the acidity is mild. The impression is that it is dry, with the umami and the alcohol being the main ingredients.
It is best paired with autumnal flavors.
The juiciness seems to increase when it is cooled. It changes quite a bit.

ジョナジョナ
This is a limited edition sake made with locally grown rice called "Akigeshiki". Akigeshiki itself seems to be a Kumamoto-born rice variety.
Chilled.
Plenty of ginjo aroma. It has a very rich taste with a combination of mild sweetness, gradual acidity, and umami with a sense of body. It does not leave a lingering aftertaste.

It is a chic series of Oubai, and is said to be made from old-style sake yeast.
Chilled.
The aroma is clean and banana-like. It has a gentle carbonation that caresses the palate and a mild sweetness. The deep and lingering acidity overlaps with it, which I like very much.
It goes well with food. Today, I had stewed chicken wings and radish.

ジョナジョナ
Sake brewed with locally grown organic sake rice (Watabune) with no added yeast and JAS certified organic sake brewing.
The attention to detail and the label are something amazing.
Chilled.
The aroma is clean and has a peachy nuance. The mouthfeel is smooth like water, but with a very smooth sweetness. The acidity and umami are round and delicate, and the slightly lingering taste is elegant itself.
I felt like an aristocrat. I would like to drink this while I am sober.
It was a perfect sake for the 400 check-in.

The Kyokuho Brewery's brand name is Urin. It is said to mean the sun, which is consistent with the brewery's name.
The aroma is entrancingly sweet, like a ripe melon. The pleasant sweetness and slight graininess are covered by a light acidity, leaving a dry umami taste.
The fact that it is not too sweet is a good sign that it is connected to twilight.

ジョナジョナ
This is the first time I saw Katsuragi (Katsuragi sake) brewery's sake.
It has a light sweetness with an aroma like that of nama-shu and a rummy flavor, with a surprisingly robust flavor. It is a daiginjo, but it comes alive better with food.
Japanese>English
ジョナジョナ
It is a low-alcohol version of Masumi with 12% alcohol by volume. The name "Shirotae" is supposed to be changed to "Shiro" but it seems to be "Shiro" in Japanese.
The aroma is slightly banana-like. It has a moderate sweetness and umami, with almost no acidity. It is a food sake with a strange and mellow flavor that does not overpower the food.
I think it goes well with pickled plums.

It's been a long time since I've seen a version called Eiko-Fuji, Gravity.
The specifications are described in detail, which makes me feel better. I'm curious about the minimum description, though.
The aroma is sweet and lingers on the palate, like a model of unfiltered raw sake. The juicy sweet and sour taste is delicious, and the aroma is not too strong compared to the impression it gives.
It can be served alone or with food.

This is a collaboration that is not legal in sake. The secret is that the sake is made with Miyamanishiki grown by a local natto (fermented soybeans) shop.
It has a clean aroma, a clear and delicate sweetness, and a sharp acidity and a sharp umami flavor that flows quickly.
The taste is similar to Hakurakusei and Kakuraku, and it enhances the food.
It is not at all a hint of natto, just to make sure.

I'm very curious about this drink! I drank it well chilled and it was delicious👍
I regret a little bit that I should have bought it because there was also a yellow Hikari label😅.

ジョナジョナ
Kitajima Shuzo's Sanki Amazake Moto sake. It is said to be made by adding lactic acid bacteria to amazake (sweet sake) from the sake mother. It has the appearance and specifications of doburoku.
Despite its appearance, it has a refreshing aroma. The sake has a rich mouthfeel due to the sake strength of -46, but the sharp and bodied acidity and carbonation somehow make it dry to the taste. It has the fullness of nigori (nigori rice wine), but the aftertaste is still clean and refreshing, so you will never get tired of drinking it.
This combination is hard to find anywhere else.

A unique sake with a label that doesn't look like food or drink. Let's leave the name at this point.
The aroma is subdued and clean. It is not sweet, but the thick acidity gives it a clear flavor profile and juiciness. It is more enjoyable with strong flavored dishes, but personally, I can drink it on its own.

I think it's a famous drink, but maybe I haven't had it before.
The aroma is mature, with an elegant sweetness and an overall clear taste. It is the type of sake that makes the most of food, and before I knew it, it was gone. It's a summer ghost story.

Sake from Nabedana (鍋店), which is a summer-spec Junmai Daiginjo, according to the company.
The gorgeous aroma is sweet and wafting. It is light but sweet enough, and the refreshing acidity combined with a clean aftertaste makes it easy to drink.
I think it was a good decision to drink it as the first sake.

Familiar to the Iki Islands, Omoya Shuzo's Yokoyama. This is a fresh brew.
I often get confused about the process of bottling and shipping.
The pineapple-like aroma is noticeably sharp. The sweetness is moist and has a nama-zake-like character, and the acidity is a wonderful combination of mellowness and delicacy.
It is recommended to be served with a glass of wine, but it is also satisfying with saury, which is already fatty.

ジョナジョナ
Shin Tsuchida's active nigori with hops. It is a craft saké created through rice and agave and other OEMs.
After about 20 minutes, the bottle was finally opened.
The aroma is gorgeous and the hops themselves have a sense of body. The rich, fresh sweet and sourness spreads throughout with plenty of carbonation still remaining, and the bitterness that is not present in rice appears earlier than it does in rice. The lingering aftertaste is a combination of IPA and sake. It's like Veggetto or Gotenks...old-fashioned, right?
Although it is a brewer's sake under the tax law, this sake seems to be a more reasonable sake with no added alcohol or even aids.

It was too hot to drink anything but highballs, but I decided that this was not a good idea, so today I went with sake.
It is a junmai-daiginjo-namaishu made from Hidahomare, a brand of sake with a fruity taste.
It has a lingering lychee-like aroma (doubtful since I haven't had it for a while). A little later in the mouth, a light sweetness spreads, and a gentle acidity and umami create the aftertaste.
It has a refreshing taste, just right for summer.
It would be good to drink it in a wine glass, or pour it into a snake-eyed sake cup and serve it with grilled eggplant and vinegared cucumbers to feel the summer.

ジョナジョナ
Sake made from 100% local Yamada-Nishiki.
Chilled.
Refreshing aroma with a strong sense of rice. It has a slightly savory sweetness and a strong grain flavor that spreads gradually.
It is easy to match with strong dishes.

ジョナジョナ
Classic label sake. It's undeniably out of season, but that's okay.
At room temperature.
The aroma is sweet and sour with a hint of banana. Smooth and tasty, it is suitable for evening drinking. If you warm it up, the yogurt-like aroma and flavor will increase, but it will still be mild enough not to mask the flavor of the food.
It is not likely to be missed even if you drink it anyway.

ジョナジョナ
Another brand of Sasaichi, DAN.
The aroma is like a combination of crisp pineapple and a hint of banana. The taste is dry but has a strong presence due to its carbonation, refreshing acidity, and crisp flavor.
The aftertaste is sharp and goes well with food. It is even better with deep-fried and soaked eggplant that has been cooled overnight.
