Hasegawa Saketen (はせがわ酒店)

n
It is not the usual fresh lactic acid beverage type of Sengkyo, but a more robust tasting type. It is said to be made by mixing the original sake. It is said that they wanted to express the autumnal atmosphere of the season. I wonder why.

It is an unfiltered, unfiltered, raw sake, so there is a freshness with a hint of pears. However, since it is 66% shaved, it also has a strong rice flavor. There is also a slight effervescence or active fermentation. It also has a strong nasal passage, but it doesn't feel like a sake that is just easy to drink, so I don't think it's something you should drink in large gulps. It is a well-balanced sake that can be drunk in small sips with something to eat.

The sake is rated at +6, but it doesn't really feel like it. It's mellow and pear-like at first, but has a slight hiyaoroshi-like thickness. It's not as strong as the nama-shu, but it's tingling all the way through, and you can taste the acidity at the end of the drink.

It is a Junmai Ginjo-shu made from "Yamadaho", which is only available once a year. Yamadaho is the mother of Yamadanishiki. At first, it has a freshness like Isshaku Suisei, but it has a thicker umami impression than the others in the series. I drank a can of it yesterday, and I can't believe it's the same alcohol.

Senkori Green Naturals I saw this for the first time and bought it on impulse. It seems to be organic naturals based, but they are contributing to the environment by using the previously made sake lees again. It's 10 percent alcohol by volume, but it's still Sentori as usual, and you don't feel the alcohol at all. It is delicious.

The lid popped off on its own because the fermentation had not stopped before the lid was opened. It must be that lively. You can feel a great carbonation. The taste is rich and has the same flamboyance as a Daiginjo, although it has been cut down to the same level as a Daiginjo. It is like a more sake-like version of Senkyoku's Organic Naturals.

It may be a house sake, but it's not bad for the cost, as it costs 600 yen per sake cup to drink at a restaurant. I wouldn't buy it to drink, but I think it is a sake that goes well with winter nabe (hot pot).

It has a sweet and fruity taste that is typical of Oriental beauties. The aroma is strong, but it doesn't seem to be coming through the nose. I think it is because my nose is stuffy. I feel it is one of the most fruity among the oriental beauties.

This bottle is a collaboration with United Arrows, so it has a snowman holding a United Arrows bag, and the nigori is a snowy background for a tasteful look. The gas escapes when the lid is opened, as if it is still fermenting. It was to the point where it would spill if you didn't open it a little at a time. I thought about mixing it a little after opening it, but it mixed on its own without any need to do so. It was so fizzy that I wondered if it was carbonated juice. The taste has the smoothness characteristic of nigori sake, strong gas, and a pear-like aroma, followed by Sengoku's unique umami. It is quite good.

When I came to eat sukiyaki, I thought I saw this sake at Life supermarket, so I ordered it anyway. I ordered it anyway, thinking I had seen it at Life. It is the most expensive sake in the store, so it may be a better grade, but to be honest, I am not sure if I can tell the difference. I'm not sure if I can tell the difference between the two. If you like sake-like strong flavors, you'll like it.

It was the end of the year and I bought a grade of sake that I don't usually buy. It is very sweet. It has a strong flavor, but it is not difficult to drink at all. The moment you put it in your mouth, you can feel the gorgeousness of the Daiginjo-style sake. I couldn't tell the difference between Toku-Ginjyo and Daiginjyo, but it was still good...

Smells like pear juice. The taste is rich, with some oriki remaining. Although it is a nama-zake, it is not very effervescent. The alcohol itself is not very strong, so if you are looking for an easy-to-drink sake with a strong flavor, this may be just what you are looking for. The price was about 1600 yen for a four-pack, so it was reasonably priced.

I was actually looking forward to it very much. It is similar to wine, and although fruity, it has a more intense flavor than, for example, Crop Impression. It is slightly effervescent. I like the aroma through the nose, but I wonder if the other series are like this. I haven't had it recently, so I forgot about it.

It looks like melon. Actually, I remember Isojumo as having a strong alcoholic taste, and I didn't like it very much, but this is not like that, and it is very easy to drink. I think this is probably because it is so soon after opening the package. I think the taste will probably change a lot as time goes by after opening the bottle.

Although it is slightly fizzy, it is the most sake-like of all the Sentori. It is still delicious. If you feel Sentori is too easy to drink, Classic is good.

Slightly effervescent. Strong green apple-like aroma. I always wonder if it tastes like this even though it is rice. It is the same feeling as Shinmasa. The price is high, but it can't be helped because it tastes so good. There is nothing to say about the taste.
