Shrine in the neighborhood is in full bloom today! I was taken to a local supermarket and bought a bottle of spring junmai sake from Yoshinogawa. The aroma is not ginjo, but it is mellow in the mouth, and after one or two sips, the aroma spreads out. It has no peculiarities, and the cost (1,200 yen for a four-pack) is very reasonable. I thought inside the house that it would be a good sake for cherry blossom viewing.

Almost a daiginjo. The ginjo aroma is so strong that you can almost say so, and the mouthfeel has a plus-minus-even atmosphere, which may not be enough for those with a dry palate, but this is not a competition. This is a great sake that is guaranteed to be overpriced no matter where you drink it.

Great aroma, good, although I'm not sure how to rate it due to the taste at the after-party. If you like sweet ginjo, this is definitely the best.

Neighborhood Super Series. Tenshin's Junmai Ginjo from a local brewery, crowned with the name Ten no Uchi. The aroma is subdued on the palate, but certainly ginjo, with a reasonable spread at the throat. From there, it is pleasantly dry and finishes gracefully, making it highly recommended as a mid-meal sake. This kind of drinking is said to be typical of Fukuoka, which is indeed a treasure house of food. It is worth repeating at a reasonable price.

A super series from a local supermarket. The mouthfeel is dry, and the aroma is different from the so-called ginjo aroma, with a strong banana flavor. The title "Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Genshu" is apt, but the characteristics are elusive, and it may be a super-cosmetic sake for those who are into it. (Yogobottle for 1,700 yen)

This sake arrived on a business trip to Batam Island, Indonesia. The rich and gorgeous daiginjo aroma gives the impression of fruity even before drinking. In fact, while the mouthfeel is full of fruity sensations, the throat is clear and almost watery. It is wonderful that the aroma does not fade until it passes through the nose. Unfortunately, we were unable to find a suitable accompaniment locally, so we tried it with mixed nuts and cheese that we managed to find.

Receive Osechi and premium sake. The rice polishing ratio is an astonishing 8%, and while one wonders if it is necessary to polish the rice that much, the sweetness of the rice that spreads in the mouth after the first sip is incomparable. The ginjo aroma is certain and gorgeous from the first sip, and the mellowness spreads throughout the body as one takes a sip and breathes in. While the price is acceptable at this point, the lingering taste is enjoyable for a long time. In a sense, it is difficult to match the sake with other foods.

The sake is served with rice at the end of the year. The sure aroma of ginjo is not at its peak when you start drinking, but rather when you take a mouthful and take a breath. The sharpness of the finish is excellent, and you can almost go on sipping. It is good with fatty sashimi.

A local sake from Kamaishi obtained at a certain festival. It has a nice daiginjo aroma and a slightly spicy taste, but it is gentle on the palate. It is characterized by the sweetness of the rice that can be felt from the very first sip, and the refreshing aftertaste, and should be paired with Sanriku local seafood as a mealtime sake.

The aroma is quite subdued. The aroma is quite reserved, and the taste is what one would call "watery," making it a very refreshing sake in total. It is easy to drink without any unpleasant taste, but it is so refreshing that it is not enough when cold, so I would like to try it at room temperature or lukewarm next time.

I forgot to take a picture of the label. From the first sip to the end of the throat, it has a gentle sweetness and a nice aroma. I don't think there is anyone who likes ginjo-style sake who doesn't like this local Oita sake. My only regret is that I ordered the Saku first.

Saku at Saku. Mellow aroma as expected, a great sake with an overwhelming aroma the moment you put it in your mouth, and a strong fragrance that lingers well into the aftertaste. It is a sake that makes you wish it had not become famous at the summit.

Slightly effervescent, with a mellow, daiginjo-like aroma. The aftertaste is also good. A bottle with excellent cost performance for those who like ginjo-style sake.
