I drink alone sometimes. Last time, I bought a bottle of “Yamahoushi” which I thought looked good by chance. And today, I saw that they were selling a dry version of it. I have learned from past experience that sake labeled “dry” is suitable for drinkers, so I bought it without hesitation.

Yamahoushi Junmai depth charge dry +28

I looked up the name of the brewery, Rokkasen.

The brewery is Rokkasen, and there are other dry sake brands as well. Interestingly, Yamahoushi also offers different rice varieties. Dewa Sansan, Dewa no Sato, Miyamanishiki, Tamanae, and Tsuyahime are interesting. It would be good to compare them. They are the same specific name junmai ginjo. I have some at home.

It says that Yamadanishiki has a clean taste, Gohyakumangoku has a plump taste, and Miyamanishiki has a soft taste.
Miyamanishiki: gentle taste. The differences are totally different depending on how much rice was polished and what kind of yeast was used.

I compared Jikin at a restaurant once, and it was very different.

Depth charge is amazing, isn’t it?

What is sake degree?

The value of “dry” corresponds to the sake degree. So, the sake degree is +28. It is a rough estimate of the borderline of dryness from about +10 degrees. It’s a bomb lightning.

Cherry”, a specialty of Yamagata, cute as ever.

The mouthfeel is slightly sweet and easy to drink. Then it turns dry. It is light and dry. It is delicious. It is a food sake. It is refreshing to finish. It is suitable for drinkers. It is a sake that you can drink all the time. The fact that it is a pure sake is the main point. It can be served cold, room temperature, or lukewarm.
