Kimoto Tokubetsu Junmai Yamadanishiki

This one starts off a bit rough to me compared to the Muni which is much more refined imho but it worked with the second half of the dinner where the flavors were stronger and could hold up to it. — a month ago

Hyaku Moku Hyōgo Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki

This is beautiful Nihon-shu.
Super ripe green melon, persimmon, ripe apricot and nougat.
With a semi-viscous quality, creamy texture and mouthfeel. There is acidity here but it’s hiding behind the richness.
We had seared Japanese beef from Iwate in northern Japan.
It tasted like meat flavoured butter.

Mu Junmai Daiginjo Sake Blue

Delectable is giving two of the bottles from this producer the sane name. I think this is just Junmai and the black is Daijingo. Sake World 2024 Had to judge given it’s the same glass throughout the tasting but this is the lightest and probably the sharpest. I hate to say acidic since these glasses mess you up but it was the least favorite. — 2 months ago

I’m wrong and @Delectable Wine is right. They are both Daijingo. But the Yaegaki Mu Junmai Daiginjo Black Label has a bit more alcohol than this one.
