This is a quite delicate representation of a Tokubetsu Junmai. Good minerality, and clean acidity makes this sake very food friendly ! Aromas and flavors of watermelon, banana peel, and pearskins. The finish is long, and shows a silky riverstone mineraly finish.
Try this sake with tuna.

Interesting and extremely pleasing ! A billowy mouthfeel and texture give a solid foundation for all the flavors of this sake to blossom and evolve on the palate. Notes of mango, melon, pineapple, starfruit and golden apples weave their way around your front and mid-palate, elegantly coat your tongue, and give this sake a seemingly endless finish.

This Junmai is clean, crisp, and beginner friendly with delicate dryness and smoothly dissolving finish. When warmed, this sake presents itself with a curious alter ego of intensely focused personality with a pleasant dried fruit-driven maturity. Enjoy chilled, room temperature, or gently warmed.

Foodpairing: Shellfish, seared fish and meat, grilled dishes, etc. (E.g. Wagyu beefsashimi, seared tuna, seafood pot stew, grilled lobster, etc.)

This sake is a real treat, for it is a good lesson in contradiction. The lesson is... that it is complex in its simplicity; it is sweet yet dry, it's chewy but soft, and it seems a bit dull even though it is vast in flavor. The nose shows marshmallowy fruit, and yet the granular fragrance of the rice adds a welcome nuance. This sake is round and easy to drink for the novice, and yet interesting enough for even the seasoned sake lover.

Very dry and food friendly. A velvety texture accompanied by notes of dried apricots and dusty road spring raspberries give this (rarely so dry from Hiroshima) sake an unmatchable pairability with gourmet cheeses. Good presence on the palate show its unique texture and extra dry mouthfeel and let its flavors linger to a medium to long finish.

This bone-dry masculine Junmai with a pungent aroma of miso, gingko nut and rice, is the perfect choice for steamy-hot, savory winter dishes. The big bold rice and mineral flavors, accented by the mild creamy acidity like yogurt, cuts through strongly seasoned, rich-textured foods. Letting it breathe and swirling the cup will soften up this compacted sake and will bring out the best of its richness. When heated, its dryness is enhanced with hints of steamed red beans and roasted chestnut. Serve at room temperature, or warm to hot.

Food pairing: Strongly seasoned dishes, etc. (e.g. Miso-broiled eel, vegetables in sweet miso sauce, sake lee soup, shabu shabu, etc.)

This light golden color Junmai is supple and refreshing with a modest nose of fresh green apple. Well-structured with optimum bitterness and acidity, its umami and earthiness compliment a variety of zesty dishes as the tart, toasty stewed-apple flavor spreads over and cleans the palette. Serve at room temperature, or gently warmed.

Food pairing: Heavily seasoned cooked food, dishes with heavy sauces, grilled meats, etc. (E.g. Hiroshima style pancake with sauce, soba with tempura topping, robata meats, steak with BBQ sauce, etc.)

Balanced between fruity and mineraly, the flavors of this sake are focused and finely tuned. Notes of summer melons and Asian pear on the front palate lead to a crisp, dry & refreshing minerality on the mid-palate and make for an elegant and clean mouthfeel. This sake is lightly textured, and has a dry and medium lengthed finish.
