It has a very dry taste with a hint of umami on the tongue, which flows down quickly. It is a reminder of the climate of Sado Island, which withstands the wind. Purchased at Niigata Station, Yukikuni Shoten. https://yukiguni.shop/

This is an excellent sake! The simple label is unexpectedly fruity and gorgeously light. It is clear and refreshing when served cold. It is truly heavenly when served cool in the lingering summer heat.

It has a sharp, dry taste toward the bottom and a slight aroma toward the top. We bought a bottle at Kyoto Station and enjoyed it with yellowtail sashimi.

Attracted by the name "Hotaru" and the label. I drank it cold. It is said that this is the creek behind the brewery where fireflies fly around. The environment where fireflies can live must be a well-preserved clear stream. It is refreshing, but not too sharp and soft on the palate. Since it is billed as a "summer sake," I imagined it would have a sharp taste like shaved ice, but when I drank it, I found it to be gentle, soft, and mild. It reminded me of the original coolness of summer, even though the global environment has become so hot that it makes me want to jump into the air conditioner. I was looking for sake from Tochigi Prefecture on the map of Japan where I have already tasted sake, because I had not yet reached Tochigi Prefecture. The taste of sake has a local story and invites reflection. Purchased at Yamauchiya, Nippori in August, 2012

Aoki Sake Brewery's Yukio from Tsururei. Intended as a cool drink. It has a neat dry sharpness. It goes in without hesitation. I drank it while looking at the frosted glass of the chilled cup. The casual design of the cup is also excellent.

Qingming. The classic goodness is always good no matter when or what you drink it with. Today, I paired it with fried chicken and swordfish, and it was delicious.

Sasaki Shuzo is the family home of Kuranosuke Sasaki, a well-known sake brewer. It is soft and mildly mellow. In an age when sharpness is at an all-time high, this sake has a certain dignity.

Oji: Purchased from Yamamatsuya Sake Shop Soft and mellow, with a clean, non-sticky mouthfeel and a full flavor. The delicacy and depth are unexpected from the impression of the auspicious sake name. It is a masterpiece from a long-established Shinano sake brewery, where one can sense the goodness of the water. http://marusesyuzouten.co.jp/itemlist.html
