kurumick
★★★★
A sake that combines flavor and a refreshing taste. It has a strong presence that can be served with strong-flavored meals without becoming boring as a mealtime sake! This is an unfiltered, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake brewed with Yamada-Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture's special A district, a limited edition that is only released once a year. It was very tasty! The brewery uses three different types of expensive rice each year, Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and Senbon-Nishiki, so you can enjoy the different tastes of different rice in this series!

Soft but rich sweetness spreads softly. It has a gentle sweetness like that of a young peach, and it is not too bitter, so you will not get tired of drinking it. It is a limited edition, available only at 33 of the company's nationwide distributors, and is the highlight of the spring season, with a focus on the three main ingredients. I was convinced that Dewa Sanzai is characterized by its soft and broad flavor!

★★★
Sake with a slightly punchy, clean and sharp mouthfeel. After a soft sweet umami taste, the alcohol has a strong sharpness in the aftertaste. For my personal taste, the alcohol level in the late 16's is a little too much for me, so I should have asked for it earlier.

I got a chance to try the once-a-year special Kuheiji Nama Sake...! No detailed specs are available for reservation, no sales in stores. Leave the specs aside and taste it with your tongue and body! This was a very tasty sake. This one was so delicious. It has a rich umami flavor and a rich sweetness like bananas or melons.
The KUHEIJI brand "everything starts in the rice paddies and fields. The company grows its own rice and makes sake in Kurodasho in Hyogo Prefecture, in Akaban in Okayama Prefecture, and in Camargue, France (a domaine in the wine industry), which is very aesthetic. I'm curious. I'm curious.

Perhaps because it was served after the Jikin, the bitterness and astringency can be felt well. It also has a rich sweetness like a banana and a mild umami!
It is said that sake brewed with the highest quality Yamada-Nishiki grown in the Yoshikawa area, which has good soil, is said to have a sensual taste characterized by a rich umami and deep acidity. It is said to be brewed with Tojo Yamadanishiki, which is made from a different type of rice, so I would like to try that as well!
It was a great pairing with uni (sea urchin) pickled in saikyo: 🫶🏻

The aroma is clear and sweet with little bitterness. The aroma is said to be berry-like, but I don't know yet. The spiciness makes the most of the ingredients, which is typical of sake, and the acidity is refreshing and enhances the sweetness. Anyway, harmony and balance! This is Jikin, it's delicious, I thought as I drank it 🥹.

It's just so delicious and very much to my liking! It has a gentle apple or pear type sweetness that is very soft on the palate! The aroma is very floral, but I'm not sure if it's because all the instruments are like that or because it's Sake Mirai. It's unpasteurized and low in alcohol content, so I didn't get tired of drinking it, and it tasted great after dinner as well.

Juyondai酒未来 大吟醸（純米醸造）

★★★★
LaFrance and muscatelike aroma, gorgeous, uncluttered sweetness, and a delicious aftertaste that quickly recedes! It also has a refreshing bitterness with a citrus feel that goes well with meals. I'd like to compare and contrast the Jyushidai and Jyuushidai 🍶.

At 59% polished rice, the taste is clean with little clutter and sweetness, but with the firm body and deliciousness typical of junmai sake! I would like to try more Kinmon-nishiki sake. I am also interested in Sake Sengano and the fact that the toji is a young woman. With Masumori 🐟.

Slightly gassy, with a full-bodied ginjo sweetness and low acidity. The alcohol is a little stronger than we prefer.
This is a limited edition product that is only released once a year in January, and has a nice winter aquarium print: ❄️
With tachi and ankimo, raw oysters 🍶.
