The rice is polished to a ratio of 50%. It is fully fermented, which gives it the usual sharp, dry dry taste with added acidity and a sense of richness. It can be drunk as a mealtime sake or on its own.

donkun
This is a limited edition sake made with Kami no Ho🌾 from the warmer climate of Shima. I don't know how growing rice in a warmer climate affects sake rice (I don't get the impression that Shima is a rice farm), but I think it's an interesting experiment: ✨️ The taste is full-bodied, with a delicious sweetness that spreads across the palate. Very tasty sake 😋.

Light effervescence when opened. The lees particles are clearly visible in the cloudy sake. The taste is rich and mellow. It has a strong acidity from a delicious sweetness. The taste is deep, impressive, and delicious.

This is a nama-sake type of Takijimizu Nagare, which is also available in a fire-aged type. It is fresh, fruity, dry, and smooth, flowing down the throat like water from a waterfall. It is also very cost-effective at just under 1,500 yen for a bottle of No. 4.

Slightly ginjo aroma. After the impression of considerable acidity, the taste of rice due to the sweetness and lees can be felt and the complexity of the taste can be enjoyed. The label color is said to be a reference to the theme fruit. If I didn't care about the color, I would have thought it was pineapple with its sourness and sweetness, but the blue label means it is grape. If you think about it, it is indeed 🍇.

Aromatic. Although it is a daiginjo, it is a type of sake with a bitter, complex taste rather than a clean mouthfeel.
