At today's dancyu festival. Sake from Sado Island was recommended to us as a refreshing sake with a moderate sweetness. It is indeed refreshing, but has the sweetness and umami of junmai sake. The bitterness and acidity are kept in check.

The last one is Kirinzan, a Niigata classic. This one has a well-balanced flavor. All three brands served today complemented the delicious food without being too individualistic. I would like to visit this restaurant again.

A dry brand that is a complete change from Jikin. In the mouthfeel, the dry character was strongly asserted without any sweetness. Overall, we enjoyed it very much with a sense of difference.

Today, I went to a restaurant I had been wanting to visit with a junior colleague from work. Jikin has just the right balance of sweetness and drinkability, making it a dangerous sake that I could drink as much as I wanted.

Also at a sushi restaurant. It has been quite a while since I have had Kaze no Mori. It has a unique flavor with little bitterness and a balanced sweetness and acidity. I like this sake because it is a different type from the dry, refreshing daiginjos that I often drink.

I wanted to go to a nearby baseball-style sushi restaurant. Although it is a cup sake, the 50% rice polishing ratio makes for a clean drinking experience. It has a dry taste with just the right amount of sweetness to complement a meal, making it a hit with my taste buds. However, it is quite difficult to pour it from a single cup into an inokuchi!

It was cold today, so we had nabe (hot pot) and hot sake. My sister came to Tokyo with a bottle of sake recommended by an acquaintance. I tried various temperatures, but the unique aroma of the wooden vat was so strong that the hot sake was the easiest to drink and tasted the best.

It has a sweetness that is typical of daiginjos, and although sweetness comes first, the aftertaste is clean.
