Paired with tofu paste with fava beans, fermented tomatoes and basil.
A sake that certainly matches the flavor of basil.
The sake that came out when I asked the shopkeeper to tell me what kind of sake has the so-called "cemedine smell" type of aroma.
The aroma that passes through the nose does indeed have a faint cemedine-type aroma. The taste is deep, and as you swallow it, you can taste the rice flavor, which is wonderful.

In my opinion, it was softly sweet and had the deep flavor and full aroma of a Junmai Daiginjo.

It has a rich, deep flavor, yet it is light and dry.
You can easily buy it at the supermarket and it tastes like this✨✨.

It seems to have been made by adding sake instead of water during the three-stage brewing process. Taste the rich sweetness, then add one ice cubes, and taste more curry ingredients? A pinch of garam masala!
Wonderful taste!

100% Yamadanishiki
The description of this sake was "ethyl caproate," which gives it an apple-like aroma.
It really is apple! Much stronger aroma than the banana-like aroma.

Isoamyl acetate, a banana-like odor, was described as a sample of the sake, and it really was!

Purchased after visiting the brewery. There were many kinds of sake, so I hesitated, but I went for the Arabashiri, which is a sake that can be drunk now.
It has a freshness and vigor. The aroma is fresh, but the sweetness and strong flavor are appealing.

Can this be the basis of sake? I felt that it was a sake that I would like to drink.
The taste and aroma were refreshing, and the sake was easy to drink.
Is it because it is made from 100% Yamadanishiki from the special A district and has an alcohol content of 15 degrees?
It's hard for me to describe, being inexperienced in the ways of sake...and it's delicious.

The taste in the mouth is like a bouquet of sweet spring flowers.
Junmai Tamakae Freshly pressed raw sake
Polishing ratio 60%, alcohol 16%.
100% Tamakae produced in Shiga Prefecture
Freshly pressed sake only during the brewing season. Sake with a sharp, yet mellow, aroma and full of flavor freshly pressed.
Shichibonshari became my favorite after traveling in Shiga Prefecture.
Found it at an antenna store and bought it.
For the first time, I tasted at the same time unfiltered raw sake (18% alcohol by volume) and filtered and watered sake (15% alcohol by volume), both of which were originally the same sake. I was surprised at the difference in aroma and taste.
The gusty taste has changed to a soft, mellow, gentle taste.
