JIRO
Clean and dry, with a little bitterness
Light, tasty, and a taste that sake drinkers like.
It goes well with solid snacks such as toro or potato salad rather than light snacks.

It is unusual because it is a sake made with malic acid yeast🍎! I bought it at Watahan in Nagano City, as I recall. I believe it was purchased at Watahan in Nagano City.
The aroma is slightly sour and fruity. The taste is sweet and sour with a hint of apple. The aftertaste is very light. It goes off without a hitch, leaving a hint of sourness. I don't like sake with acidity, but this is delicious.
It does not feel like a pure sake, and the alcohol content is 13%, so it is easy to drink.

Purchased at Seibu Department Store in Ikebukuro (before remodeling) last New Year's Day. I had heard from the proprietress of Morioka's Hososhige Sake Brewery that it was difficult to obtain 4-gou bottles, even in my hometown, so when I found it, I immediately got it.
It has a perfect balance of sourness, bitterness, and sweetness, and is easy to drink like water, even though it has a strong aroma and tastes very much like sake. It is a dangerous sake, a magical sake, and I keep drinking more of it even though I want to curb my drinking habits.

I bought it at the MaxValu in front of Yamagata Station.
The MaxValu there has a great selection of local sake and wine, and is like a sake-drinking paradise.
The taste is sweet and sour. It tastes so good that you can't help but exclaim, "It's so good! I exclaimed. It is better to drink it as it is rather than to pair it with snacks. It would go better with mellow matured cheese than with something light and refreshing.
It tastes as if it would be written as a sake for women on the menu of a sake specialty store.

Yamagata Prefecture has a lot of good sake. Or rather, there is nothing but good sake everywhere in Tohoku.
Since it was getting a little cold, I drank it at room temperature. It is a mild sake with a clean taste typical of the Tohoku region. When you finish it, you can smell the aroma.
The moment it is swallowed, it has a slight sweetness from the rice, followed by a firm spiciness that spreads on the palate.
There are almost no peculiarities.
It seems to go well with anything, whether light or heavy, but when I paired it with takaimo (sweet potatoes), the bitterness stood out, so it may not go well with sweet foods.

Was it limited to Akita Prefecture?
When served at room temperature, the rich rice sweetness spreads. The smell of alcohol is moderate.
It may be better suited to accompany solid flavored snacks than light ones.

It is a 500ml bottle with a small capacity.
The sweet aroma and the sweetness of the rice are well perceived and easy to drink neatly.
As it approaches room temperature, a slight bitterness emerges.
The impression is delicate and soft, not guttural.

Limited to Akita Prefecture. Purchased at the local production center in front of Akita Station. Also available online👍.
Berry-like sweet and sour, rich, with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. It is not the most royal sake, but it is very easy to drink and tastes great.
I like it better when it is cooled down as the bitterness gets stronger as the temperature rises.
I think it can be drunk with salt, but I also think it would make a great marriage with pickled vegetables such as Iburi Gakko (pickled ginger).
I want to drink it again.

Highly acidic.
As time goes by, it becomes more and more sour.
I think pickles go well with it because it is so refreshing.

the sweetness is amazing
Aftertaste is the sweetness of white rice itself, in a good way, with the sweetness and miscellaneous taste of rice
The aroma is not that great, but it is easy to drink.

Very rich and flavorful. If you think it is spicy, it has a sweetness that makes it easy to drink.
The ginjo aroma is subtle, and it goes well with strong snacks such as cheese and potato salad.
This sake seems to be brewed by a toji in Noto, and we would like to drink it to pray for the recovery of the Hokuriku region.
