Buy it at the direct sales store in Fushimi. They bottle it in front of you from a tank set up outside the store through a faucet set up inside the store.
With a milling ratio of 49%, it has a clear and transparent taste with a characteristic bitterness and complexity.

100% improved Omachi is used.
It has a strong impression of acidity while also having the umami flavor typical of Omachi.

Purchased at Kiyozakura Kappa Country in Fushimi for 440 yen per 1-gou bottle.
Although inexpensive for a junmai daiginjo, it has perfect specifications, including a ginjo aroma, a clear mouthfeel, and a delicious sweetness.
This is a product that can only be made by a large scale brewery.

Gekkeikan's sales pitch for a 1-gouze bottle of sake that can be drunk anywhere (in reality, it is difficult to drink anywhere casually). The price was 330 yen.
I drank it without any expectations, but it was surprisingly tasty. It has a delicious sweetness and little miscellaneous taste.

At Torisei Honten, which is attached to the Yamamoto Honke brewery.
As the name suggests, it is sharp and dry. Goes well with rich chicken liver.

Mellow aroma, honey-like taste. It has a noble sake-like flavor. The alcohol content is low at 13 degrees.
It seems to be a good match for different tastes and drinking styles. It is good with light dishes or with Camembert cheese.

Use of Kami no Ho. It is once-hot.
The palate is light and fresh. Later on, it has a delicious flavor that is typical of Kami no Hoto.

Junmai Ginjo-ginshu brewed with Association 701 yeast (Masumi yeast).
It has a very effervescent taste. It is gorgeous and light, and because it is a pure sake, it has a flavor that is steeped in flavor.
Very delicious 😋.

A series of badges from Miyazaki Honten, famous for its Kimmiya shochu released a few years ago. The blue one is made from Yamadanishiki.
It has a light effervescence when the bottle is opened. The taste is full and fruity. It has a slightly sweet taste, but it is not harsh, and it is a good mellow syochu liqueur liked by everyone.

This sake is also limited to Iwanai-machi, Hokkaido.
Since it is a daiginjo, we started with a cold sake.
It has a green apple aroma, and after a short time of extra cooling in the freezer, it has a clear mouthfeel.
It is easy to drink, but it is a little too good to drink in a hurry.
I think it is better to savor it slowly as a stand-alone sake than as a mealtime drink.

Limited edition sake from Iwanai-cho, Hokkaido. Sake rice is made from Iwanai-grown Comet.
It has a mild taste with a characteristic bitterness.
It is a versatile sake that can be drunk cold, at room temperature, or warmed (lukewarm).
I don't have the space to keep a bottle in the fridge at all times, so I drink most of it at room temperature or on the rocks.
I drink most of my sake at room temperature or on the rocks, but I definitely enjoy a small portion of chilled sake. Surprisingly, I found it tastes better at room temperature. On the rocks is a bit thin and unreliable.

It is a very tasty sake with a good balance of sweetness, spiciness, and acidity.
At just under 1,800 yen for a 4-pack, it's a cosy sake these days, and good enough that I would recommend it to anyone I know.
