The last sake of 2023 was also Kaze no Mori. It is a mid-sake. Pressed slowly, soft flavor. The usual slightly shrieky feeling. Nakatoro (medium fatty tuna), akami (red fish), mozuku (seaweed), ikura (salmon roe), grilled scallion, and hamaguri tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce). Why are they all there? I look forward to serving you again this year 🙇.

This is a valuable sake that can be drunk on the same day it is pressed. I have tried morning pressing several times before, but this was fresh and delicious. The nutty aroma and sweetness flowed smoothly down my throat, with a slight shrieking sensation. I paired it with sushi. It was perfect. My father, who drank it with me, had to have another glass several times. We will definitely enjoy it again next year. After a week, the taste seems to have calmed down, but it is still refreshing.

I had imagined it to be refreshing and dry, but it was a very tasty sake with a hint of sweetness. It is often recommended to be paired with fish. I paired it with shime saba (mackerel) sashimi, and it certainly washed away the slightly raw feeling after eating, but did not interfere with the flavor of the fish. I guess it would go well with sushi as well. I thought I would give it a try.

I prepared for this drink with another light run today. After a 40-minute run, I took a bath and got ready for this drink. I had it with lamb, cacho caballo ajillo, and bonito tataki. The citric acid is sour, but the sake is not so sour and is neutrally crisp. It is refreshing and does not interfere with the meal. Below is the description of the sake. oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo It was planned and developed by a staff member at the Namie brewery who enjoys running marathons. This is a product that we have entrusted everything from planning to unrefined management and products in order to further develop our growing young staff. The product uses white malted rice, and you can enjoy the citric acid sourness derived from white malted rice.

I paired it with ahijo. Or rather, the menu on the day I wanted to drink Kaze no Mori was Ahijo. The moderate sweetness goes down your throat smoothly. Is this the aroma that is called pineapple? Don't worry. It goes well with ahi jio.

Runner's only drink. I bought it just because of the name. I heard it is made with white malted rice that produces citric acid. I don't have a marathon to run in the near future, so I'll drink it after running regardless of the marathon. I might jog more at night. It is 65%. I am looking forward to drinking it. Immediately after opening the bottle, it has a low alcohol content and a citrusy citric acidity, which makes it less like a sake. It is an easy-drinking sake.

It was hot again today! But we had motsu-nabe for supper. I wasn't sure if it would go well or not, but I tried this sake with it. It is delicious. It is not labeled as a daiginjo, but the rice polishing ratio is 44%. It was a refreshing drink with a hint of sweetness. It went well with the nabe, but somehow I felt like drinking awamori, so I went with awamori afterward. Coffee with it. Thank you again today.

I had been curious about it since I saw it featured on a beef tongue restaurant's Instagram, and happened to find it at a liquor store I went into, so I bought it. The sake has an amazing smoky smell. Frankly speaking, it was a strange sensation. As a result, I didn't have a chance to eat good beef by the time I finished it, so I only paired it with karami (dried mullet roe).

This completes the four regular junmai ginjos. I think it is less floral than 7, but it is sweet and tasty, fresh and delicious. My preference is 10>7 super spicy>1814>7, though the difference is very slight.

It is a well-known brand but I was able to purchase it for the first time. The good thing about the point system is that you don't have to work that hard to purchase it. It has a pineapple aroma and sweetness as well, but this sake is quite moderate and has a good flavor and sharpness. For me, it is my favorite sake and delicious.

I bought this for New Year's. I have been to the brewery, but they did not sell me the yamori (although they had a variety of others). Now, this was purchased at a relatively nearby liquor store. It is fresh sake, so it is stored in the refrigerator. It has a bitter taste when just poured, but after 5 minutes, oh my goodness! The bitterness disappears completely and the mellow flavor and gorgeous ginjo aroma stand out. It is so delicious! It might be good to drink it in a wine glass. 4.5/5.0
