ましらのやまさんHatsu Shibori 2025 [departure]⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Unfiltered unpasteurized sake
Rice polishing ratio 60%, ALC 14%.
While looking at the sake on the shelves and in the fridge in the store, looking for a sake to purchase, the unique label of Yano Shuzo caught my eye.
I had to buy this one 😅.
On the palate, I found it to be a refreshing, crisp, slightly sweet sake. I can drink it soooo easily 🥰.
I'll have to be careful with this one😅.
Chigasaki Hoshido: 20251201 purchased & 1202 opened ましらのやまさんJunmai Ginjo-shu Dry ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15 degrees
I visited my favorite liquor store and found a sake with a deer🫎 label.
I asked about it and was told that it was from Kankoubai. I had thought that the four seasons' animal label series of Kankoubai would be owl in autumn and polar bear in winter... but deer🫎 appeared between autumn and winter.
I bought it without hesitation.
It has a subtle ginjo aroma, a slight carbonation on the palate, and a pleasantly stimulating dry and crisp taste on the tongue.

ALC 16 degrees
The aroma is subtle, and the mouthfeel is slightly stimulating, with a pleasant acidity and umami of rice, making it a slightly dry sake.
We had encountered Moeibuki Junmai before (May 2024), but it was not a "nao kumi" at that time, so we decided to register it as new.

(TACO BLUUUE)

This is the third stage of Kitajima Shuzo's [Oiriri Hipporidako Series]....
Since the label was a model change from "Tamaei 100% Junmai Ginjo-shu Turquoise Blue," which was purchased in September 2021, we treated it as a new registration.
It has a subtle ginjo aroma and feels light on the palate, but it has a sharp, dry summer taste.

Pleasant, light ginjo aroma. In the mouth, it is a refreshing sake with a mild flavor, soft acidity and bitterness, and a slight stimulation on the tongue.
Evening coolness...for snacks, eggplant nanbanzuke (pickled eggplant) that has soaked up the flavor and cooled down perfectly 😋🥰.

However, when you take a sip, you will notice a pineapple-like aroma along with a mild mouthfeel. After that, the acidity spreads, followed by a slight bitterness, and then the umami of the rice... I guess this is a food sake that can be enjoyed while changing its expression.

The aroma is slightly fruity. When you put it in your mouth, you will be surprised at how sweet it is. Is it sweet? It has a softness that makes you think for a moment that it is sweet. The carbonation characteristic of nama-shu is almost imperceptible.
After that, the mild taste of nama-shu spreads while the dryness is felt a little.

It has a faintly fruity ginjo aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, it tingles and stimulates your tongue, making it a sharp and smooth drinking sake.
From the sound it makes when opened and the stimulation on the tongue, I wonder if it is a draft sake 😋.

The shopkeeper recommended this sake, saying, "This sake is interesting and delicious..." The shopkeeper explained that it was a prototype Junmai-shu made by Yano Shuzo.
According to the store owner's explanation, it is a prototype Junmai-shu made by Yano Shuzo, and salt is added to the brewing water.
The label was cute, so I bought it😅.
The aroma is only faintly perceptible.
It has a slight amber color.
It has a sour taste in the mouth and a little bit of saltiness really.
It is low in alcohol, so it tastes a bit like a dry white wine. I thought it was a sake that would go well with white fish dishes, pasta, cream cheese & crackers, etc. as a snack, chilled well and poured into a wine glass.

The blue-purple label is beautiful.
