It has a taste that can be enjoyed on its own, but also has a sharpness that makes it suitable for eating. This sake is a model of a mellow sweet sake. This is delicious.

The nose is a bit fruity, and the mouthfeel is clear. It's a little too clear and characterless...? The aroma in the background is a faint pineapple smell.

First, drink it at room temperature. The strong aroma of aging is unique to this sake. The rice polishing rate is 50%, so there is no miscellaneous flavor, and it has a clean, refreshing taste.
You can warm it up at a lower temperature, around 40 degrees Celsius. It's like the goodness of room temperature has been enhanced.

It has a beautiful acidity with a hint of sweetness that is typical of Miyamanishiki. The light aftertaste lingers long after drinking, but it is not unpleasant at all. This is very much to my liking.

Watanabe Shuzojo, the brewery. (I couldn't find it in the registration).
It is quite refreshing for an unfiltered unpasteurized sake. The aroma is a little bit grainy.
It is a very good sake for the first drink.

It is 90% polished. But it is not so habitual, and it is easy to drink. For better or worse, it is an easy drinking sake.

The rice polishing rate is 91%. When you drink it, it fills your mouth with the aroma of wildflowers. Of course, it's not an unpleasant aroma. In fact, it is my favorite type. There is a strong alcohol smell that lingers in the nose a little bit, but it doesn't linger until later. It is also recommended as a food sake to go with strong food.

No.77 yeast (malic acid) + Yamahai yeast (lactic acid) + white yeast (citric acid)!
It has a lot of acidity, like a white wine. Personally, I'm not that good at the type of wine that has a lot of acidity, but if you pair it with cheese, the strength of the acidity diminishes and it's very good.

If you drink it as is, it's a typical sake. It has a slight alcoholic smell and is a sake for everyday drinking.
When you drink it with fish, you don't feel the smell. It is a sake that you can taste the goodness of fish because it is not too assertive.

Drinking comparison. I heard that this brand is only for the sake brewers' association called "Sakemon no Kai".
JAPAN PROUD: This is my favorite. The aroma is subdued, but the flavor is strong. It's a good food sake that enhances the aroma of the food and also brings out the goodness of the sake.
PROUD EXTREME DRY: This is a dry sake. There is a bit of an alcohol smell that lingers. It is recommended as a sipping sake, because the unpleasantness disappears.
JAPAN PROUD ~SUMMER~: It has a stronger acidity than JAPAN PROUD, and is the most peculiar type. It seems to be better to cool it down or warm it up.

The name "dry" suggests that it is just as you would expect. You can drink it smoothly, but when you finish it, you can feel the alcohol.

Drinking it cold, I felt an indescribable complexity. The flavor is there, but it is not overwhelming. The aroma was nice, but not overwhelming. At 53 degrees Celsius, the flavor is not too strong and the aroma is not too garish. You should definitely try it warmed up.

The acidity and citrus aroma that spreads in the mouth is immediate. It's on the edge of the line, but not too much. Mischievous sake.

As the name suggests, the taste is clear and easy to drink. Even though it is an Alsopian wine, there is no unpleasant aroma and it is the ultimate in ease of drinking.

Well balanced. The faintly fruity aroma does not change in the mouth. The aroma is sweet, but it's not harsh at all, and it's crisp. It's a favorite of mine.

Anyway, it's balanced! It has a rich taste that spreads in the mouth, and when swallowed, it has a crispness that leaves no trace. It's delicious.

It's called "Akizakura", perhaps the name of a hiyaoroshi brand. It's very light on the palate, and it's hard to believe it's unfiltered (maybe that's because it's watered down).
The acidity in the mouth comes out, so it is better to drink it cold than warm. It goes down smoothly.

100% Dewa-Sanshu. If you drink it cold, the mouthfeel is hard. It is dry and easy to drink. As the temperature changes, the flavor slowly seeps out of the mouth, and it's just right for a lukewarm drink. A lukewarm temperature is just right.

A comparison of 100% Yamada Nishiki and 100% Gin no Yume.
In the mouth, Yamada Nishiki has a sweet aroma like Muscat. It has a slightly sweet and round taste on the palate.
Gin no Yume is in the same direction, but its aroma is less pronounced and it is much crisper. It tastes thicker, and I personally like this one better.
