ましらのやまさんKinran Kurobe
Super dry ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 70%, ALC 15 degrees
This was the sixth type of Kinran Kurobe.
It is not so much dry as super dry, but a clear and crisp dry sake. It was not good for my taste 😅.

The typhoon No. 10 brought guerrilla downpours, strong winds, and a brief period of sunshine... It has been about a week since I refrained from going outside.
Finally, the typhoon's influence is gone, and I no longer have to worry about encountering rain when I go out at night, so I went out to meet the new arrival of sake at a familiar store.
Let's see how many first encounters we can make today!
The brewery was from Hiran.
It is quite sweet with a little sourness, so it is like a sweet and sour fruit wine.

Chigasaki Chirori: 20240902 ましらのやまさんGinjo-shu 100% Yamadanishiki⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Summer Moon
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 15%, with alcohol
I wanted to finish off my daytime drinking (or was it evening drinking already?). I wanted to finish off my lunch (or evening?) with a bowl of aburi-don, so I stopped by Chirori-san for the second time 😋.
To my surprise, they had Nabeshima in stock...I had to check it out 🥰.
A blue-black label with a small moon and a forest and the inscription Summer moon... first time we met and sealed the deal... 😆🤣😁.
I already had a lot of it tonight at the first [Sake. Toto], but I couldn't resist tasting the first Nabeshima I encountered 🤗🤗.
It's a delicious slightly sweet sake with a rich aroma and a soft, mellow and delicious rice flavor on the palate!
Chigasaki Chirori: 20240809 ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo-shu Nakadori Unfiltered, Selected, Nama-fume
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 14
No description of sake rice
I have encountered several Junmai Ginjo-shu Nakadori Unrefined Nama-Zume from Jyushidai, but this is the first time I have not seen the sake rice brand listed, so I decided to register a new one 🤗.
The aroma is subtle... there is a slight tingling sensation on the tongue when you put it in your mouth, and as you roll it around in your mouth, you can taste the mild flavor 😋.
If anything, it's a light, slightly dry sake 😃.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20240730 ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo Dai-harakuchi⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 55%, ALC 16 degrees
I thought it was quite a dry sake with a faint aroma of koji and a light and crisp taste on the palate 😋.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20240730 Germany ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo Dry (red label) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Polishing ratio 55%, ALC 15%.
Not much of a ginjo aroma 😅.
In the mouth, it has a mild and gentle taste, and if the acidity and bitterness are controlled, I thought it was a clean, light and dry sake 🥰.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20240730 ましらのやまさんHanada Yamahai Junmai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
100% Hyakumangoku No Shiro
Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15
I didn't know how to read the kanji for "縹" (縹), so I asked the store owner 😅.
It is a slightly dry sake with a subtle malted rice aroma, a sharp taste, a good balance of acidity and bitterness, and few peculiarities unique to Yamahai 😋.
Chigasaki Chirori: 20240730 ましらのやまさんSensation Blue⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Junmai Ginjo Koshiki Nama Moto
Koji rice 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Shiga Prefecture
Kake rice: Watabune No.2 from Shiga Prefecture
Yeast: Kyokai No.6, in-house strain
Polishing ratio 50%, ALC 15
I think this is the same sake with the blue label of Sensation Blue that I met in August 2023, but the label and description ("Kakemai" and "Koshiki Namaoto" were added) are different, so I decided to register it as a new sake 🤗.
The taste was almost the same as my note at the time, with a hint of fragrance and a dry, crisp taste on the palate 😋.
