Masumi Junmai Sake Okuden Kanzukuri. Masumi is generally crisp and light, but this one is especially crisp among the many Masumi. It is quite crisp and has a strong flavor despite its lightness.

It was the last day of the month, the last day of the quarter, and all the restaurants were very busy. I opened the door, wondering if I could get in without a reservation, but fortunately Shiobai Kioicho had a vacancy and I was able to fit in. We started with Kinryo Ginjo Tsukihaku. It is a ginjo-shu with a light yet sharp taste. Delicious.

The third cup, Senzuke Special Junmai. This is the first time I have seen this brand. The aroma of koji is well developed, yet the taste is refreshing. The aftertaste is also very sharp. It is easy to drink and never tires.

Eikawa Autumn Agari Junmai. It is hiyaoroshi. It is made from 100% Sasanishiki produced in Aizu. They use their own yeast (Eikawa yeast). It has a moist taste with a hint of bitterness. The alcohol taste is rounded, as one would expect from hiyaoroshi. It has a mature yet rich flavor.

Today, we went to Tokyo Sake Bar Shiome, a 3-minute walk from Kojimachi Station, to explore a new restaurant. Since they call themselves a sake bar, they must have a good selection of sake, so we started by checking out the sake list. As expected, they have a decent selection: 20 local sake, 2 sparkling, 1 very sweet, and 2 on today's menu. First up was Tsururei Yukio Junmai Sake from the grand menu. This sake is famous for its cute label. There is a slight acidity on entry, followed quickly by umami and richness. But the sake is also handled well. As one would expect from a sake bar.
