Takachiyo Unadjusted Nama Sake "Cherichiyo" Houjyu Rating 4.4-4.5 Alcohol 14%. It has a sweet, moderately tart fruitiness reminiscent of black cherries that pop. It is gorgeous and mellow, with a cute, light sweetness that whets the appetite. The alcohol content is 14%, which makes it light, but also gives it a richness that can only be found in the original sake. It is the type of sake that can be drunk before a meal, and can be enjoyed casually. The micro-bubble rice washing method is used. Limited quantity for test brewing!

Shinshu Kamerei Junmai Ginjo Hitogokochi Tosawasan Unfiltered Unrefined Nama [Shipping in January 2024 Rating 4.5 Rice used: Hitogokochi from the Tozawa district of Sanada, Ueda City, 55% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume. Fresh and fruity despite being fire-aged. The aroma is sweet strawberry-like, with a hint of pineapple. The mouthfeel is full of minerality and a sense of transparency. There is a gaseous feeling typical of new sake, and it finishes dry and crisp. I wonder if the flavor has been further enhanced by letting it sit for a while.

drunken whale junmai daiginjo koiku akiagari Rating 4.4 Rice: Gin no Sei, Polishing ratio: 45%, Yeast used: Kumamoto yeast (KA-4), Kochi yeast (A-14) Sake meter: +6.0, Acidity: 1.7, Alcohol level: 16 A blend of two different types of sake: Kumamoto yeast (KA-4) with a clean taste and Kochi yeast (A-14) with a fresh banana-like aroma. The sake is stored in ice temperature and refrigeration, resulting in a sake with a mature aroma and umami flavor. The taste has the unique ginjo aroma of a daiginjo and the firm acidity typical of drunken whales. It has a banana-melon aroma, perhaps because it has been laid down to rest, and is a bit languid. The convergence is refreshing.
