ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo-shu Honinbo⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 55%, ALC 16%.
It has a subtle ginjo aroma, a slightly dry taste in the mouth, and a dignified, crisp flavor.
I wonder why they chose the brand name "Honinbo"😅.
Still, I am happy to have found a delicious sake to finish off the meal.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんBlack Imadaiji Junmai-shu⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Polishing ratio 65%, ALC 16%.
The aroma is weak and the palate is immediately filled with a dry, crisp flavor. It is a delicious 🥰 sake!
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんJunmai Daiginjo⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 15 degrees
It has a koji aroma rather than a fruity ginjo aroma.
It is a slightly dry sake, but I gave it 3 stars because it seems a little off from my personal impression and taste of Junmai Daiginjos😅.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんJunmai-shu Kami-no-ho ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
100% Kami no Ho produced in Mie Prefecture

Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんJunmai Daiginjo-shu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is another sweet sake suitable for aperitifs, with a ginjo aroma and a mellow aroma that is further enhanced in the mouth.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんAmber Junmai Ginjo⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 13 degrees
We started with a sweet sake as usual. Tonight was the after-party of the annual kingfish fishing tournament with my fishing friends.
Tonight's main dish was a raw fish with liver and bone crackers, which we brought in and had cooked for us.
I was supposed to bring a kingfish, but... the catch was not good, so I brought two over 30cm long horse mackerels that I caught on the outside and had them cooked for us. We also ordered fried mehikari, tempura of albacore and maitake mushrooms, assorted sashimi (yellowtail, kanpachi, salmon, and sakura shrimp), and seared shime saba (mackerel).
Amber is a slightly sweet sake with a hint of ginjo aroma. The alcohol content is low, so it is just right as an aperitif 😋.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251122 ましらのやまさんJunmai Daiginjo Super Dry ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 45%, ALC 16 degrees
This sake has a light ginjo aroma, and after a slight stimulation on the tongue in the mouth, it has a clean, crisp, dry taste.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251017 ましらのやまさんDry Junmai-shu shi-bi-en Autumn ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 55%, ALC 15 degrees
It is a dry sake with pleasant acidity, rice flavor, and crispness in the mouth.
I decided to register a new one because the [shi-bi-en] I had encountered in June 2022 was marked with a blue star and not [Autumn].
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251017 ましらのやまさんAsamayama SLUMBER⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio is not disclosed ALC 15
We received this bottle sealed.
The label says "Awakened from a summer's sleep...", which means it is a hiyaoroshi sake... 😅.
The kanji label of "Asama-yama" used to be a bit dowdy, but now the label has a stylish design.
In the mouth, it is a delicious sake with a light flavor, sharpness and umami, and a refreshing acidity.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251017 ましらのやまさんHiyadori red dragonfly⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Unfiltered unpasteurized sake, ALC 14%.
Domaine Sakura Yamada-Nishiki 100% (Domaine Sakura, Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture), Polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 60
Tonight's snacks are 4 pieces of sashimi: sea bream, sea bass, red clam fins, and salmon!
I had encountered [Akatombo] in October 2022 that was not hiyaoroshi, but this was my first hiyaoroshi.
...but it turned out that Akatombo was originally a hiyaoroshi, an autumn-only product of Senkou. I didn't study enough🙇 (Update added on 2025.11.8)
I had it in a sealed bottle.
I thought it was a mellow, mellow, slightly sweet but refreshing sake.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251017 ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Mashira no Yama 😃.
We also had "Akatombo" for the first time in 3 years last month 😋I didn't know that 3 years ago it wasn't hiyaoroshi 🤗. ましらのやまさんGood evening, Jay & Nobii 😃My note from 3 years ago didn't say [hiyaoroshi]...and I assumed so 😅This time I found out it was [hiyaoroshi] on the store's notice. And originally [akatombo] is hiyaoroshi for autumn only! I didn't study enough. 🙇♀️ ましらのやまさんOfficial licensed product for Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Junmai Daiginjo-shu
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 15%.
Tonight's objective is to have a sake brewed by the Hakurakusei brewery under the [Osaka Expo Official License] label 🥳🥰.
It is a unique and delicious sake with a subtle ginjo aroma, a mellow atmosphere on the palate, and then a pungent stimulation on the tongue, followed by a stimulating acidity and bitterness, and then the umami of the rice.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20251017 ましらのやまさんSake-komachi 100% Polishing ratio: undisclosed
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ALC 11 degrees
The final product is a 50cc inoakuchi sold day and night.
It is a light, refreshing, slightly sweet sake with a carbonation like a draft sake. It is delicious with the image of summer sake 🥰.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんJunmai Akiharu Yamadanishiki⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

100% Yamadanishiki, Polishing ratio 80
ALC 17 degrees
Aragano" means "our" in Japanese.
It does not have much aroma, but in the mouth you can taste the mild and full flavor of Yamadanishiki and the deliciousness of rice, and it is a slightly dry sake.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんMitsui no Kotobuki, exclusive for glasses: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
ALC 15 degrees
This is a sake brewed and shipped from 7 different breweries, each brewed by a master brewer who wears glasses. I have never come across this one before, and I wonder when I will be able to get the complete set 😱.
There is almost no aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, you feel a slightly peculiar sourness and bitterness.
I tried it with snacks as a food wine, but personally it was a 3 star 😅.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo Omachi⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
100% Omachi from Fukuoka Prefecture
Polishing ratio 55%, ALC 15
The aroma is subtle, but the fruity flavor spreads quickly in the mouth.
It is a mellow, slightly sweet sake.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんUGO COROLLA⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio: Kake rice 60%, Koji rice 50%.
Kake rice：Koi-omachi 76
Koji rice：Yamadanishiki 23% ALC 14
Tonight we have a lot of first encounters, so we decided to start with a set to compare 😋.
I think it is a slightly sweet sake refreshing with a mellow taste and a calm atmosphere.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんFukkai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
100% Yamada-Nishiki, fresh brewing
Polishing ratio not disclosed ALC 14
The Fukkai we met in 2024.12 was a nigori sake, and the sun on the label on the mountain was a red sun. The sun on the label this time was green....
The aroma is refreshing without any peculiarity, and the taste is sweet on the palate.
It has a slight stimulation on the tongue, and the taste is soft with a sharpness that makes it pleasant to drink.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20250929 ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo Kurofune Mashu? ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kanzawagawa Shuzo Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture
This was the brewer of [Masayuki].
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 15 degrees
Sake degree +4 Acidity 1.1
The tengu-like figure is a painting from the Shimoda Kaikoku Museum collection, so it must be a portrait of Commodore Perry 😅.
The sake has been submerged at the bottom of the sea since 2023 to mature....
It is slightly amber in color and does not have much of a ginjo aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you feel the aroma and mildness peculiar to matured sake, but soon the peculiar astringency and bitterness spread. The single rating is 3 stars😅.
It is better to drink it as a food sake when you have leftover food such as today's appetizers, bamboo shoots stew and mozuku vinegar in your mouth, than to drink it alone.
