There is also a cheese-like aroma, but it takes on a completely different expression on the palate, and you can feel the greatness of the power of nature. It is not a taste like a fruit acid or white wine added intentionally by yeast, but an acid brewed by the power of nature. This is a wine that is reminiscent of a natural wine, to put it simply.

The concept is to drink it chilled, Yamahai! Many people think of Yamahai as a sake for heating up! So, in the hot summer, we've created a Yamahai that can be drunk cold, not warmed. We wanted to make a Yamahai that could be drunk cold. We wanted to create a sake that could be drunk cold. It has a sweetness similar to a melon at first, then a sourness, and a moderate bitterness a little later. The bitterness comes a little later, but it's easy to drink!

Even though it is a Junmai Ginjo, it is not a gorgeous sake with an assertive aroma, but rather an aroma of sweetness of rice that can be smelled gently. The aroma in the background is a delicious aroma that captures the drinker's sense of smell. The straightforward and soft umami bursts at the back of the throat and diffuses its umami in the mouth. Without even thinking about it, the taste is sharp and sharp, and before you know it, the "Yasuke" has disappeared into your stomach. No wonder it is a perfect match for seafood. It raises the flavor of tender, sweet seafood such as squid, shrimp, white meat, and shellfish many times over. However, even simply by itself, it goes well with meals other than seafood, making it a truly beautiful sake.

Why is this "Pink no Kappa Junmai-shu" pink? The secret lies in the yeast used. This yeast is called "red yeast (adenine demanding yeast)". It is a yeast that has an unusual characteristic of accumulating red pigment inside the fungus. This yeast increases in number as the sake base (mash) ferments, and eventually the mash becomes red. This yeast increases as the sake mash ferments, eventually turning the mash a deep pink color. We then use a unique method to press the mash while maintaining its pink color. The result is a crystal-clear pink sake. Raw rice: 100% Yamagata rice Rice polishing ratio 65 Alcohol content 10%. Sweet, Dry, Slightly Umakuchi Full-bodied, Light, Slightly light 3.5/5.0

Dio Abita" is one of the most popular drinks at Mimuro Sugi, and it is well known for its fresh taste with low alcohol content. Grazie a Dio" is a sake that means "Thank God" in Italian. It is a 13 degree low alcohol sake made with Omachi rice and 60% polished Junmai Ginjo unfiltered sake. It has the same beautiful aroma as "Dio Abita", and the juicy taste and volume that only Omachi rice can give. Because of the low alcohol content, it flows down the throat without sticking, and is just too easy to drink...! However, even though it is low in alcohol, it is still undiluted sake, so it does not taste thin at all. This is one of those bottles that tastes so good that you can't help but thank the gods of sake. Type Junmai Ginjo Ingredients Rice, Rice malt Rice: 100% Omachi Rice polishing ratio 60%.

This sake is a blend of sake pressed without pressure using centrifugal separation technology and sake pressed with pressure, the normal way of pressing sake. The beauty of centrifugation is that there is nothing unpleasant about the sake, and the punchy, fruity sake from the regular pressing method is added to create a refined, gorgeous, delicate sake with depth and complexity. The Asahi Sake Brewery is the first in Japan to use a centrifuge for this purpose on a commercial basis. Because the sake is separated from the mash in an unpressurized state, the true beauty of Junmai Daiginjo, such as its aroma and fullness, can be expressed without any loss. Of course, there are many drawbacks to this process, and the fact that it is unpressurized means that the yield of the product is extremely low and the cost is very high. There are also many other problems, such as the machine itself being as expensive as buying a whole house, and the fact that it is the first machine of its kind for a sake brewer, which naturally leads to initial problems that cannot be avoided. However, we took the plunge and installed the machine for the purpose of making good sake. Yamadanishiki rice polishing ratio 23 4.2/5.0

Mizumoto jikomi is also called bodai moto, and is a brewing method that began in the Muromachi period (1336-1573) at a temple in Nara, where raw rice was soaked in water to promote lactic acid fermentation to increase acidity and ensure safe brewing. Sake brewed with such an ancient technique created in the Muromachi period is a product that can be enjoyed with a new sensation that is neither fast brewing nor Yamahai. ~Taste The aroma is slightly sweet and lactic, like yogurt, with a juicy sweetness and a characteristic sourness. If you heat it up lukewarm, the flavor becomes even deeper and the world of Hanaboe spreads even further, so be sure to try it! Rice: Gin no Sato Alcohol content --- degrees Rice polishing ratio 70%.

The only breed of rice in Nara Prefecture that is recommended for sake brewing, "Rofu" was once discontinued due to its difficulty in cultivation, but thanks to the efforts of farmers throughout the prefecture, it has been revived. It is a cross between Hakuro and early Futaba, and is characterized by a larger heart white than Yamadanishiki, but it absorbs water very quickly, making it a very unique rice that is difficult to process. The taste is quite hearty, as the rice is polished to 80%. It has a rich round taste like a pineapple made into a compote, but thanks to the beautiful acidity and light fizziness that is typical of Kaze no Mori, you don't feel the sweetness or the high alcohol content at all. I think this is a very interesting sake. Rice used: Nara Prefecture "Dewa Kaze Polishing 80%. Designated Sake etc. Junmai/Namaishu Frequency: 17 degrees 5.0/5.0
