Polishing ratio 55% (Uonuma polished rice) Alcohol 15 min. The color is yellow and the aroma is soft. The label on the back of the bottle says that it was produced in May and that after bottling, it is kept in a "snow room" warehouse at a low temperature before shipping. I took it back after hearing that a friend of mine who doesn't drink sake had given it to a friend in Niigata and it had been languishing at home for a long time. When I first drank it cold, it still had a hint of a twinge, but it had a strong sweetness and umami flavor.

Short-stalked boat 000%, Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. It has no color, but it has a fresh aroma and a strong acidity. It is a sake made in September, but it might be a little twisted. It was a bit twisted, and when I tried heating it up since it was getting colder, the flavor I didn't like became less pronounced. I used to heat sake in front of a pot with a thermometer in hand, but since the arrival of "Nonbei Yokocho" a few years ago, I can easily warm sake 👍.

100% Miyamanishiki, Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. The color is clear and the aroma is fresh with a slight warmth. It has a slightly bitter, citrusy taste...maybe influenced by the label😜. I used to drink Yamamoto the most in a year. It's been a while, but it's still delicious💕I also like the fact that the text on the back of the label has nothing to do with the sake, but is a report from the brewer on his recent activities 😁.

100% Short-stalked boat Alcohol content 15%. Soft sweetness and acidity. It is made in April this year with 2023 rice and released in October, but it has a fresh feeling. It is a once-a-year treat ✨As usual, the specs are undisclosed, but based on my impression after drinking it, I am making it a Jungin 😜.

Alcohol content 14 Flat polished rice x Micro-bubble rinsed rice It has a soft aroma and gasiness. Since it is unfiltered sake, I thought it would be sweet before drinking, but the acidity is stronger. I couldn't find any mention of the rice polishing ratio, which may be due to the fact that the rice polishing method is different from the usual method, so it can't be indicated as the rice polishing ratio. Finally caught up so I can check in on the day I drank it 😁.

Rice polishing ratio 58 Alcohol content 15 The first sip is easy to drink, but it gradually becomes more and more robust with a strong umami flavor. When I first learned to drink sake, there was a time when I stayed away from it because I thought it was too strong for me 😅I don't know if it's because either the sake or my taste buds have changed, or if it's the management of the restaurant where I drank it, but I like it very much these days👍.

Miyamanishiki Polishing ratio 65 Alcohol content 15%. Modest but refreshing aroma. Sweetness and acidity with a little gasiness. When I want to drink a Morishima with a robust flavor, I choose this one, but I personally think it is clearer and easier to drink than other brands of Junmai sake.

Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15%. Soft and gentle aroma. It seems to strongly pass through the nose. I thought it was less sweet and stronger than I had imagined before drinking it... but when I looked back at last year's record, I saw that it was written as sapparishiru😅. Checking in a month late here too... gotta catch up soon💦.

100% Miyamanishiki, Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. It has a modest aroma and a little gasiness. I thought the cap of the bottle warmer was "strictly sealed," but it seems there are cases where it is not. I didn't up it for more than a month after opening the bottle, and every time I drank it after that, I kept thinking "come to think of it, I haven't up it yet..." and the bottle was empty 😅. Unfortunately I forgot about the difference in taste between the raw sake and last year's ⤵️ reflection 😢

100% Hitanishiki, Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15%. Clear and colorless, with a moderate aroma. The hardness or spiciness typical of Hitanishiki is rare in Morishima👀I think it was a bit more rounded when I drank it raw. I could feel that the impression of the sake changes drastically when it is heated 💡.

Hi Chizu! Please excuse my comment: 🙇‍♂️ I was really wondering what to make my Ibaraki sake 🍶 debut now! I will refer to your various reviews!

Rice polishing ratio 65 Alcohol content 14 Ogawa yeast (Association No. 10) The aroma is clear and sweet. When you take a sip, you will find that it is really thick and sweet. As you eat, you will notice a little spiciness, which makes it refreshing and easy to drink without getting tired of it. Urasato is brewed using traditional methods with rice, water, and yeast from Ibaraki Prefecture, but with such a stylish label 👀❗ Even those who do not normally drink sake will find it acceptable 😆.

100% Omachi, Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 We compared 3 types of Omachi jun-dai, one is the 14 yeast draft, one is the hi-ire version, and the other is the regular hi-ire version 😆. The last one is a fire-aged 14 yeast 🍶. Almost clear and gassy. More acidic than the regular version. It is easier to drink than the other two, but the spiciness comes out later. I tried to compare them under the same conditions as much as possible with a snake-eyed boar cup and it was fun to see the characteristics of each in the clear sweetness 😋 A valuable experience ✨.

100% Omachi, Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 We compared 3 types of sake: the regular hi-ire version, the raw sake with 14 yeast and the hi-ire Omachi jun-dai 😆. This is the normal version Hi-ire 🍶. It has a little color, and although it is hi-ire, it has a gaseous and clear sweetness. I could clearly see that the aroma and taste were more powerful than the two 14 yeast ones 💡.

100% Omachi, Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 15 Comparison of three different types of Omachi jun-dai: the No. 14 yeast raw and hi-ire, and the regular hi-ire version 😆. The first one is an unfiltered raw sake with #14 yeast 🍶. Almost clear and not much aroma. It's schwaggy and fresher with more acidity than the other two. Plenty of air bubbles in the bowl. I heard that Kanazawa yeast is characterized by low acidity and high ginjo aroma, but I got the opposite impression 😅. Even though it was made in April, my husband suggested, "Why don't we wait until it comes out of the fire and compare the two?" I've been waiting to open the bottle 🎉.

Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 12 It is clear and easy to drink with sweetness and acidity, but the sensation that leaves the nose after swallowing is so strong that it is hard to believe it is low-alcohol. According to the explanation on the back label, it is a test brew, made by lactic acid fermentation of amazake called "Sanki Amazake Moto", and it is recommended to drink with soda. I had it chilled today, but I'd like to keep a little and drink it as a highball to refresh me during the heat wave 🌊.

Rice polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 15 Degree of sweetness/spiciness: Somewhat dry Degree of lightness Somewhat light There is a little bit of ooze at the bottom of the bottle. When poured as gently as possible, it has a freshness like a slightly sweet and sour green apple, and after swallowing, it is quite strong. Next, I knocked the bottle down a few times to mix in the oriki, and the gasiness and sweetness became a little stronger. I found myself drinking a lot of it, but since the sake was shipped refrigerated for half a year without being heated, I wanted to see how it progressed after opening the bottle a little 😅.

100% Yamadanishiki, 60% polished rice Alcohol content 15%. It is clear and has a moderate aroma. There are a lot of air bubbles on the container, but there is a slight gaseous sensation when you drink it, right? It is about the same. It has a refreshing acidity and a bit of sweetness and spiciness. The first Yamada-Nishiki to switch to fire-aged Morishima was made in May, and I actually opened the bottle and took a picture of it quite a while ago💦I drank it several times without posting 😅I think I have about 1 gou left... enjoy 😆.

Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 15 (Taken while worrying about the direction of the lid...sorry if it is wrong) The aroma is subdued. There is a sweetness in the fresh acidity that is typical of nama-zake. In the morning I went to the local liquor store to pick up some otsukai and bought 2 bottles of summer sake for home ✨In the evening I went to the fish shop to get a 3-piece set of Batsugun and horse mackerel sashimi and decided to enjoy the sake I brought home that day even though it is rare for us to open the bottle 😁. Today's weather wasn't great, but it's time to enjoy a nice cold sake 😆.
