Sharaku赤磐雄町純米吟醸

KAGOYA (籠屋 仙川店)
K
(Left photo) The two Omachi varieties have a light, elegant balance of sweetness, flavor and acidity that makes them both beautiful as Collage and Omachi sake. The Bizen has a fuller sweetness and umami that is typical of Omachi, while the Akaban is more modern and beautiful with a stronger acidic aftertaste. Both are excellent! 4.25 Bizen has a check-in from last season, so I omitted it.

It has a juicy sweetness and acidity that is typical of chrysanthemum, but not too much sweetness. It has a gaseous taste and a refreshing aftertaste. It is also perfect as a mealtime sake to complement Japanese food. It is a great price for this junmai ginjo! 4.75

KAGOYA (籠屋 仙川店)

(Right photo) As is typical of junmai sake, it has a strong umami flavor. It reminds me of the Ura-hayagi I drank before, which has a distinct flavor. It has umami, but naturally not too strong, and has a well-balanced taste with sweetness. A versatile mid-meal sake that goes well with dishes with strong flavors. Good cost performance 4.00

It has the acidity of a summer sake and the fizziness of a sparkling wine, making it very refreshing to drink! Unusually, it does not taste like akabu, but it may be the most acidic akabu I have ever tasted. It is so refreshing that you may finish it right away, but when you taste it thoroughly, you will find a mild sweetness that is typical of ogara-mi. The acidity decreases and the sweetness stands out on the back palate. 4.25

(Left photo) Hatsu-chiebijin While retaining a sweetness and acidity similar to that of freshly pressed sake, it has a dense flavor that is expressed precisely due to the maturation of the sake. The taste is juicy, mellow and sweet, with a touch of individuality. 4.50

(Right photo) A distinctly sweet taste that is not typical of Banshu Ikkyo. A beautiful light sweet fruity sake with a gorgeous acidity. The balance of mild acidity and umami that accentuates the sweetness is excellent. Costa Zero 4.50

(middle photo) It has a lovely, peachy yeast-like flavor, with a berry juice-like sweetness and acidity. The sweetness and umami that is typical of sake also appear toward the end, but I wonder if the Amezure was stronger from the beginning. I wonder if it is possible to make a difference in this line of sake. 4.50

Juicy sweetness and acidity spread from the sharp mouthfeel. The sweetness is fleeting and quickly disappears. It is a typical autumn sake. 4.50

It feels much drier than other chrysanthemums I've had. Other Kangiku often has red fruits, but this one has blue fruits. Bitter and astringent taste, especially pear-like, can be felt from the middle of the bottle onward. I didn't feel Aizan-like taste, but I wondered if this is what Ken Aizan is like. 4.75

It has a fruity sweetness like Miyamanishiki, but it is also refreshingly fruity, making it a good mid-meal sake. As the temperature rises, it takes on a hiyaoroshi-like softness. The name "Yonagata" is also excellent! 4.50

It has a rich, mellow, umami mouthfeel while retaining, or rather strengthening, the gorgeous fruity flavor that is typical of the Oku region. And yet it leaves a sweet and sour aftertaste. The alcohol content of 18 degrees is surprising! 4.25

It's like a highly refined Wind Forest. Not as mellow as melon or banana, but fresh and light, with a pronounced sweetness and acidity reminiscent of muscat. Not very Kaze no Mori-like, but it is my personal favorite. 5.00

At this price point, I'm not sure when to open it, but maybe I've laid it down too long...? Like the Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Nao Kumi released in May, it has a rich, mellow sweet taste with a pronounced pineapple flavor! Compared to the Junmai Ginjo, I have the impression that the aftertaste is a little less bitter and a little more nicely rounded. It is very tasty, but I don't think the difference in price is as great as the difference in taste. I'll have another Hanahayo next season... 5.00

The taste is impressive after "Mokke Bodai Hashiwake" and "Rohafu". Juicy sweetness and umami that is typical of Mimuro cedar! Whether it is because of the omachi, hiyaoroshi, or both, it has a particularly strong sweet flavor, but with a grape-like acidity and a very light and refreshing aftertaste! The beautiful Mimuro cedar and Oumachi are a perfect match! 5.00

(Left photo) Strong and thick mouthfeel, typical of Omachi, as is typical of autumn sake. It has a heavy taste with a sense of grain. This is the kind of sake I would like to drink with a well-flavored meal. I think I've come to think that this kind of sake is also delicious. 4.00

(Right photo) I guess I'm gradually getting used to craft saké, so there's nothing particularly new or impressive about it... Delicious, but The acidity and the heaviness that may have come from the rice are a little too strong... I'm not sure if the level is a little too high for me to understand the wildness... 4.25
