A mild junmai sake with a junmai-like quality. It has a delicious aroma of rice and a mild astringent taste. The flavor is not too assertive, so it is very easy to pair with food. We paired it with sushi, so it was a great combination.

It has a fresh but not too simple taste with an astringent aftertaste. The complexity of the astringent taste makes it a good match for strong flavored foods, and it went very well with stir-fried chicken and mushrooms with batapon. It also goes well with octopus sashimi, which has a strong flavor.

It has a deliciously fresh and sweet taste of nama-zake. But it is still crisp and easy to drink. I remember that it went well with scallop sashimi. It also went well with the small fish almonds I picked up after dinner.

It is described as mellow and dry, but it is indeed mellow and yet has a great sharpness. It is an interesting combination of two extremes. Honestly speaking, I wasn't sure what to pair it with because of its sharpness, but I think it would taste even better if it were loosely warmed up.

It is fruity and I would say light, but the astringency comes at the end. It has a good balance and is easy to match with anything. It goes well with ume mayo lotus root, okra with sesame paste, grilled fish and sashimi. I couldn't find anything that went well with it, but it went well with many things.

A refreshing fruity drink. (I guess I've been choosing that kind of sake a lot lately.) Today, I thought I wanted a robust sake to go with grilled fish, but it ended up being fruity because it is unfiltered raw sake. Of course, it is delicious. The grilled fish is a mehikari we bought in Oarai and marinated in junmai sake. Salty fish and sweet sake are not a bad match, but not the best. It might go well with the pork cutlet stew we bought at Seven.

The aroma is restrained but the taste is imbued with a woody aroma, giving the impression of a well-balanced sake between fresh sake and mellow sake. It goes well with seseri and char-grilled momos (taro), both of which came from Furusato (hometown)! However, the flavor was a little too strong to go well with Hokke. However, it went well with a salad of Chinese cabbage and tuna that I made on the spur of the moment.

I chose a sake that I thought would go well with the sashimi, and it turned out to be a very refreshing sake. It has been a long time since I drank such a watery sake. It is not harmful because it is not so strong, but it may not be the best match for anything. I paired it with octopus, scallops, and negitoro (tuna with green onion), but it was not the best match for any of them.

Mildly sweet and refreshing nigori sake. It was so cloudy that I was terrified it might explode when I opened the bottle, but it was fine. I bought this sake because I enjoyed it at a corner festival, and it was delicious without being too assertive.

It has been a long time since I have seen such a yellow sake! The color of the sake is so strong that it even looks amber. It even looks amber. It tastes like plums with a strong acidity. I thought it would soften when heated, but it didn't. It is a very assertive heated sake. The alcohol content is 18-19%, which is quite strong, so the strong taste is understandable. It even feels close to a distilled liquor. I paired it with mille-feuille hot pot, but it was a strange feeling that I couldn't say it matched or didn't match. It is hard to imagine what would be the best match for this sake.

Sake from Aichi bought at a corner festival. I had heard that it was rather robust, but it was quite fresh and easy to drink. I thought it would go well with something strong flavored, but it went very well with sweet and spicy fried sasami. I'm not sure if it would be bland with an egg-onion salad or sushi. Overall, it was very tasty.

It is a sweet, refreshing and delicious sake. I don't like the Harushika super-harukuchi that I often encounter at the store that much, but I like this Shiboribana because it is delicious. It goes well with octopus carpaccio and grilled hanpen cheese. However, I wonder if it feels a bit tart if you drink it all the time.

The wine is a solid yellow color and looks very rich. The taste is very sweet and rich. Although it is not my favorite flavor as a stand-alone, it went well with aromatic rice, such as the garland chrysanthemum namul and ginger-scented meat and potatoes that we are eating today.

The aroma is a bit acidic, but the mouthfeel is soft, and the sweetness stands out in the aftertaste. However, it is not too strong, so it goes well with meals that have a bit of sweetness. We paired it with crab sashimi and crab shabu-shabu, and the sweetness of the crab was a good match. It is a well-balanced sake.

It was sold cheaply at the supermarket apparently, but it is very well balanced and tasty. I had it with shabu-shabu and it was very good and I enjoyed it deliciously. Very cosy and tasty sake!

This is another sake from Nara that was gifted to me by a friend. It has a fresh and fruity aroma and taste like green apples. It is delicious and easy to drink even though you want to drink it slowly, so it goes quickly and easily. I paired it with bonito tataki, German potatoes, and stir-fried mushrooms, but it has a strong flavor, so it doesn't lose out to any of them. However, I prefer it with something a little lighter and full of flavor, such as octopus or scallop sashimi. It is very tasty!

This is one of the bottles in the goody bag I bought in Fukushima. Although it is alsobeared, it is not too harsh. It has a soft aroma like Japanese pear and a refreshing sweetness like apple. The aroma lingers in the mouth and is delicious.

What a cool label! A Chinese poem is written on it. It is a daiginjo, but not too sweet and has a crisp taste. It is very easy to drink. I have paired it with many things, but I think it goes best with tuna with salted sesame oil.

A gift from a friend who loves to drink. Contrary to the harsh atmosphere of the label, it is fruity and easy to drink! But there is a slow astringency in the back, and it is the kind of sake that gradually regains its first impression. It was a bit strong with salted pork stew, but went well with smoked salmon.
