Today, too, I drink alone.　Dry is a drinker’s friend. I have recently learned that “spicy” is a drinker’s friend, and I will not miss out on anything that has a “dry” rating. The characteristic of dry sake is that there is little miscellaneous taste and almost no sweetness when you finish it.

Dry Evolution Junmai-ginjo RZ50

The Dry appeal is amazing. It’s a definite purchase.

Sake Degree +9 Roughly +3 to +4 is the average Sake Degree. As I may have explained before, this number represents the spiciness of sake. So I think it is good to use this number as a guide.

In addition, since Nama-shu is close to the original state, it tends to have a high aroma and alcohol content. It is suitable for sake drinkers.

The kanji is difficult to read.　I looked it up, and it’s called Ryozeki Shuzo. There is no official website, but it was listed in the Akita union.

It has an old-style cap.

Let’s gulp it down!

Comment: A

Melon-like sweet aroma rather than gorgeous ginjo aroma
The palate is refreshing, with a moderate sweetness characteristic of junmai ginjo.
It is said to be dry and umami, and it certainly is!
Sweet! Dry! ▶︎Yummy! ▶︎Sweet, ▶︎Harsh, ▶︎Yummy, ▶︎Savory!
I guess that’s what they mean by “spicy and delicious”.
Thank you very much!

Evaluation of taste

I guess it’s called “light and dry”. It’s not sweet, but it’s dry enough to drink without getting tired of it. I drank it cold this time, but I think it would also be delicious at room temperature or lukewarm. It seems to go well with light Japanese dishes such as sashimi and sushi. It may need to be chosen with strong-flavored dishes. The kind of flavor is a refreshing sake.
