村長Rice: Yamaguchi Prefecture Rice Koji: Yamaguchi Prefecture Rice Polishing Ratio: 60% Alcohol Content: 17%. Today, it is a luxurious accompaniment to sushi. The sake itself has a very distinctive taste and goes well with the seafood, creating a synergistic effect. It was sweet, but not unpleasantly sweet, just right. If I had enjoyed it on its own, I might have felt it was a bit stale. It was a sake that went well with the meal.

Nagurayamaまるてりんこ×まるてめろん純米吟醸

村長Once-heated, alcohol content: 16 degrees, rice polishing ratio: 55%. It has a strong sake taste and is fruity, but I didn't feel it was that fruity. When I drank it, I could taste the melon flavor of shaved ice and sake lees in the aftertaste. I think it goes better with snacks, not meals. Kaki no tane and crackers didn't go well. There was almond. Western snacks such as cured ham and cheese might go well. If you put something on top of the cracker, it might have been good.

村長Limited edition of unpasteurized sake Rice: 74% Kame no o, 26% Aizan Rice polishing ratio: 55% Alcohol content: 16%, Sake degree: -2.0 The taste is fruity, refreshing and sweet. Slightly effervescent. Purchased at a local liquor store. I was told by the liquor store that it goes well with broiled eel, so I used it as an accompaniment to stone-roasted bibimbap on a hot plate, thinking it would go well with something with a strong flavor. The taste of the sake was not overpowered by the richness of the meal, and my mouth felt refreshed. It was quite a good marriage. I think it was not too sweet and more refreshing than Manzaku no Hana that I had drunk before. Very tasty!

寒菊　Blue Sapphire青玉（せいぎょく）純米大吟醸原酒生酒無濾過発泡
寒菊銘醸Chiba
22
村長50% Yamadanishiki x 50% Gohyakumangoku, 14% alcohol by volume. Slightly foamy, sweet, fruity. Taste like white wine. To go with bouillabaisse. Very good with Western food. It would also go well with Japanese food with a strong flavor. The class seems to have a deeper flavor if you drink it in a wine glass. It has a taste that can be challenged even by those who don't like sake that tastes like sake.

村長It was slightly carbonated, tasty and refreshing. It's a pity that the sake cup I chose was too small to feel the full flavor. The sake was fruity, but not too sweet. I drank it as an accompaniment to grilled seafood, and it went well with it without disturbing it.

村長Sweet, fruity, freshly opened, slightly carbonated. The rice is 100% Dewa no Sato from Yamagata Prefecture. To go with dinner. The meal is Japanese food. It's sweet but not overpowering, and I thought it was delicious both as a food sake and on its own.

村長Sweet, a little fruity but dense. It's like a full-bodied wine. It's a little thick and sweet, so I got tired of it in the middle. I think it is enough to drink 2 or 3 cups in a cup.

村長A gift. I drank it for the first time. It's fruity but not like wine, it tastes like sake. It was not so sweet. The mouthfeel is smooth and like water. It is very easy to drink and you can drink as many as you want. I thought it was more of a food wine than a sake, so I paired it with grilled seafood. But I thought it would go better with sashimi. Next time, I want to enjoy the marriage with sashimi.

愛山50 超限定無濾過生原酒純米大吟醸原酒生酒無濾過
寒菊銘醸Chiba

村長Fruity, slightly effervescent, sweet. But not too sweet, just right. I thought it was a sake that could be enjoyed either by itself or with a meal. It has a solid taste, so I thought it would go well not only with sashimi, but also with Western dishes such as carpaccio.

村長A little sweet with a fruity taste. A little heavy. It doesn't go well with food, so I thought it would be better to enjoy it only with alcohol. It went well with snacks. I chose fried ginkgo nuts and dried clams. This was a perfect match. I think of it as an after-dinner sake, the sake version of the espresso that finishes off an Italian meal. It was a spring sake, limited edition sake, priced at just under 1,700 yen.

村長This one was also tasted at Noboriya Sake Shop near Kinugawa Onsen Station in Tochigi Prefecture. The aroma is of melon. It's the driest of the three we tasted, and in my opinion, the most typical of all the sake.

Senkin立春朝搾り　純米吟醸　生原酒
せんきんTochigi

村長This is also tasted at Noboriya Sake Shop near Kinugawa Onsen Station in Tochigi Prefecture. This sake was pressed on the morning of Risshun, February 3, 2021. The owner went to the brewery that day to purchase this precious sake. Risshun Asashibori is said to be a sake that makes the toji (brew master) work very hard, and because the sake is only pressed on Risshun Day, it requires perfect management to prevent the sake from being made too early or too late, based on the quality of the rice and changes in the climate. It seems to be a sake that makes the toji cry. It tastes fruity, smooth, and easy to drink. It is an easy to drink sake that you can drink easily. By the way, the word "Senkou" means a sacred bird or a precious bird.

村長Tasted at Noboriya Shoten near Kinugawa Onsen Station in Tochigi Prefecture. Fruity taste. A little heavy. I felt it was medium bodied, as close to full bodied as you can get in wine. It is quite sweet. In my opinion, it's delicious, but if you keep drinking it, you'll get tired of the taste.

村長Fruity taste. It was a bit gassy when I opened it. It is not so sweet and very easy to drink. I didn't pair it with anything and just enjoyed it with sake, but in my opinion, that was the right decision. I thought it was a sake that could be enjoyed on its own, without any snacks. On the other hand, if you wanted to pair it with a meal, what would you pair it with?

村長Fruity taste. It was a little sweet and slightly fizzy. Today's meal was mainly salmon roe, so I chose sake. I didn't choose a sake that would go well with the seafood, I just bought a sake that I liked the taste of. However, it went well with the salmon roe's thick and salty taste, and the sake went fast.

村長I have always bought this for the last 3 years to drink every New Year's. It has a fruity taste that I like, and it's not that sweet. It's easy to drink. Recently, I don't drink it with meals, but just savor it. The price is still about 1,500 yen. The label is not a crescent moon, but a full moon, and once I bought the last bottle at a local liquor store and it was a full moon.

村長Freshly opened, it is slightly fizzy, and the Daiginjo is still more delicious! I was impressed. Is it because I drank it first? But it's delicious and I like it. It is a little sweet and fruity. The price was about 1500 yen.
