Dashiwari. Last time I had it made with Kikuhime, so I asked for another one. I might like this balance.

New Sake. The rice was brewed with last year's (since there was no new rice yet). I wonder if the taste changes with the old or new rice.
This has a full flavor for a new sake.

Last night. At a store that specializes in draft sake. I had never seen this Houou Mita before. It was a draft sake, but it had a very fire-reddish, refreshing feel to it.

I chose this one to go with sashimi. I thought it would be dry and refreshing, but it has a distinctive richness.
Also, the sashimi is very tasty!

Thanks again for your help today! More foam 🫧, the right choice for the first drink. Delicious.

I wanted to drink it. I bought it at Aeon.
The alcohol content is 5 degrees. It is different from usual sake. It is not a sake, but a beer that goes well with Japanese food.
I think it is an interesting product with a stylish label and available in a small bottle.

Junmai Ginjo, following the Namahashimoto Junmai. This one is even softer. Unlike the previous one, there is no core (not in a bad way, it's soft and disappears softly). I think this sense of core is possible with the sake made from the "Namahashime" method.

The waitress said to me, "It's crisp, isn't it?" and that's exactly what it is. I guess it is crisp with a modest taste and soft mouthfeel. I like that it's well chilled.

This is the first time for me to try the kamo yeast dobu. It tasted dry and authentic, much different from what I expected. It was perfect for a greasy snack.

I tend to ask for it when I see "kamishio yeast". This is no different, and it is a delicious all-around sake.

Looks like it reads "roja sake"?
Sweet and fruity. They say it is a sake made from rice grown by duck farming.

Today's first drink is a shwashy type. The fine bubbles are nice.

Ebi shinzo wrapped in yuba leaves, with unagi no shiroyaki (broiled eel).
This restaurant is amazing, with almost all of the sake-no-wa ranking up to about 20th (or maybe more)!

At room temperature. I like how room temperature softens the mouthfeel.

Hiyoroshi. It's really delicious! I wonder if the dry taste is mellowed a bit by hiyaoroshi? I like it!

We were served a little bit of both cold and hot sake! Same taste but different. Both are great.
