Wataya純米吟醸 阿波山田錦

徒然草
I tried a bottle of Wataya, which was recommended to me by a liquor store owner who looked like he might drink it during the day, but I didn't buy it. It was not so light, but it was rather refreshing, and I thought it had a good balance. It went well with fugu nabe (blowfish stew).

This is Tenmei's once-every-four-years leap issue, which I have become a fan of for its gorgeous, rich sweetness and flavor. You can drink it even if you don't have anything to drink.

I had it with Shinshu specialty horse sashimi and nozawana greens, and found it to be a well-balanced sake, neither too spicy nor too sweet. I thought it was well-balanced and not too spicy or sweet.

徒然草
It is said to be a sake specially made for mackerel, recommended by the izakaya's manager. It is indeed a sharp and light sake, perfect for grilled mackerel with a lot of fat, and it seems to bring out the flavor of the fish. It is also good for sukiyaki and meat dishes.

It is a rare sake that is only pressed during the leap year Olympic year. This was my first Eiko Fuji, but it was a mellow umami-guchi sake to my liking, and I would definitely like to try the others.

It is a sake from Minamiuonuma, Niigata. Since it is a Niigata sake, I thought it would be light, but it was quite tasty and delicious.

I think it is a very well-balanced sake. It is also cosmetically pleasing, which explains why it is so popular.
