Shu*Kura's sake
I was about to finish off with some rice ice cream when I got this.
It was sweet and tasty, and I thought it would be a nice float when drunk alternately with the ice cream.

As the review says, it is mild with a well-balanced taste.

Yamahai drinking comparison 4 kinds of food set
While waiting for the connection, we went to SAKE Shokudo at Kanazawa Station.
All of them are rich and delicious. The pairing with the food was also good. I learned a lot about how different rice makes such a different impression.
All of them were very good, but personally, Omachi was a critical hit. I would like to revisit.

This is one that I buy when I find it and keep in rolling stock. It is milder, sweeter, and richer than the original. It is also delicious warmed, but it was too hot to drink it cold this time.

At the Diners Club 65th Anniversary Sake Tasting. Very gorgeous from the nose, with a pleasant sparkling crackle and sweetness. I was told that it had been stored in oak barrels, and I could taste the bitterness that comes from that afterwards. I learned a lot about this type of sake, which I usually don't encounter in my daily drinking.

Azakura純米大吟醸 亀の尾 無濾過原酒
Islander
I was attracted to Kame-no-o Junmai Daiginjo and bought it.
After the mellow umami flavor filled my mouth, there was a refreshing acidity like apple and plum. The aftertaste is astringent. The umami was the most impressive, and I enjoyed the transition of flavors.
We drank 2 gos of each with cheese snacks on the Inaho limited express train and with flatfish sashimi at our hotel.
Purchased at Sugakyu Shoten in Akita. We talked with the shopkeeper and asked him for his sake recommendations. It was a good shopping experience.

It is characterized by mild acidity and deep umami. Although it is a Yamahai, it has no astringent taste and is easy to drink with few peculiarities. It is also good cold, but I would like to try it with a little bit of kamatama.
Purchased at Aspam and served on the rapid train "Resort Shirakami".

Obasute棚田 特別純米

I bought it in the spring and refrigerated it, brought it back to near room temperature, and opened the bottle. The flavor and sweetness come out softly. A little like a white wine. The end of the bottle is dry, crisp, and easy to drink.
It can be matched with a wide range of food, but we feel that it is best served at room temperature.
Due to the stock in the refrigerator, we decided to change it up and have a Chinese meal. I served it with small baskets, shrimp shao mai, and umami pork. It was my first time to drink sake with Chinese food, but it was better than I expected.

Like the normal Kintsuru, it is light and dry, with a slightly stronger acidity. Compared to the seasonal Fuwa no Nama, it is less gaseous and more subdued.
We served squid and sea bream sashimi with kabosu soy sauce. Very good.
Note: After a day after opening the bottle, it seemed to have become a little rounder.

The taste is mild at the beginning, but then the spicy and tasty flavor rushes in and finishes. It gives a strong impression.
I have only tried it with sashimi, but I felt it went especially well with red tuna.

若蔵純米酒 WAKAZO KURA CHALLENGE 2024
Islander
I was curious about the -50 sake degree, an area I had not yet experienced, and purchased it at New Chitose Airport.
The coloring is lovely, as it is said to be derived from yeast.
It was nigori-stained, sweet and sour, and gave the impression of berry-like yogurt.
I enjoyed it like a dessert drink after dinner.
