I think it is quite a standard Niigata 淡麗辛口 style. Though when opening the bottle there is slight cooked banana smell, on nose the lactic acid & rice style is more prominent. On taste it does not give you anything fruity, instead it is rice, yogurt, cream and slight umami at the end. The alcoholic feel is also prominent. Quite crispy in general.

It is very elegant when first opening the bottle. Fruity, melon and pineapple like on nose, full and elegant. In the first sip it is also sweet and fruity, a great one to taste. However, i think the sake is not very good at pairing with food. The alcoholic feel becomes more prominent and some salty and sour taste come out which I think is not the intention of the brewer. So better drink on its own instead.

Always my choice as the sake to start. Never go wrong with freshness. Fine bubbles to refresh the palate as well. 12.5% abv genshu shows the effort placed in brewing, and the outcome is great. Slight fruity sweetness but more on the rice side - yakult type of sourness which is a good balance. Not much bitterness spot, clean and crispy, kire!

One of the finest sake by this brand - JDG with 35% rice polishing ratio, with a great outcome of balance between fruity sweetness and slight acidity. Long after taste which has depth and complexity. Nice one.

Not seen this small bottle before - but then everyone will only be able to get a sip of it. Still a very fresh one with clear fruity sweetness, wont disappoint.

Always a good sake to start the party. Clean and crispy one, slight fruity sweetness and I can feel a bit of sweetness from the rice too. Comes with light and fine bubbles, giving a very refreshing feel. Sharp and crispy finish, totally kire style. No burden at all~

Not so sure if it is in the best condition - strong alcoholic feel, need to rest for a while before it is more balanced and easy to drink. Not very fruity in style - while more of umami and cheese feel. May need to try other types to get a fairer impression.

So happened I visit the area, so I bought this very local sake from the Shuzo. Frankly I can’t rank high for this sake, it is a more traditional type of- coming with cheese and umami feel, but too heavy and not blending very well. For Honjozo, I would expect it to be more sharp and crispy - but totally not that thing. Just for fun sake, not for serious drinking from my view.

Very fresh sake and blends very well. Come with fine bubbles and slight sparkling feel. Fresh fruity pineapple and melon on nose and palate, nicely done. A bit sourness which makes it balanced and easily drink. Not with the unpleasant bitterness that are usually found in TJ.

An interesting sake that comes with nice complexity. On sight it gives a yellowish color - some hint on its taste. On nose it comes with some fresh chees or mozarella cheese, with slight umami hint. The sourness on palate is pleasant though it os quite significant. It wont make you feel awakward but actually blends quite well. Slight nutty and umami feel at the end.

A very local sake that I bought during my visit to Nihonmatsu. Actually it has performed better than my expectation - easy to drink, fruity aroma like melon and pineapple. Clean and crispy - fruity taste and will not be too full. Sadly it wont be able to find outside the city seems.

A very easy to drink sake. Needs to be cautious when opening it though as the cap may pop! Overall it is refreshing with fine bubbles. Clean and crispy, slight fruity feel but ig demonstrates more on the character of rice with slight mineral feel. Very pleasant and good to pair with sushi and sashimi - will not over take the taste of food but rather make it sweeter! Nicely done.

First time to try this very premium sake in the brewery itself. But sadly I think it is not in the best condition. Perhaps it has not been rested enough? Or it has been opened for too long? I feel it is a bit plain and I cannot feel the complexity and richness that I would expect. The other ones tasted that day are performing better!

Not a fair comparison to be placed besides Juyondai & Aramasa as it will definitely become less memorable. But still a premium sake doing its job well.

Again a proof I have tried this in my log :) Very signature sourness from Aramasa, but quite refreshing. Not the kind of sourness that will make you feel imbalanced. Kind of taste you will not forget, rice and fruitiness then come and blends well in palate.

At least I need to put it here to prove I have drank it once :) A very high end sake which gives you a clean fruity and premium taste. Very enjoyable but whether it worths the very high price is another question.

Found this sake specially made for the restaurant. Same as other Hakurakusei sake, they are very nice to be paired with food and will never go wrong. Fruity sweetness together with rice sweetness, not very prominent but help enhance the taste of food. Did the job perfectly.

Quite a dry one but good to drink as there is no burden. Seldom find a kimoto honjozo sparkling in the market so it is always good to try. It still gives you the fruitiness and also with a bit yeasty feel. Sharp and crispy. Not bad.

Quite an expensive sake - such a small one already costs you 3000yen! It is due to its manufacturing method - firstly Junmai Daiginjo with a rice polishing ratio of 35% and also the use of centrifuge method. It is clean and transparent, together with the rice and fruity sweetness. Crispy as well. I would say it is a good sake, but whether rit worths the money is another question :)
