Yamada Nishiki.
It's been a long time.
Sweetness from the beginning.
The sweetness starts in the first half of the bottle, and it concentrates to the richness of umami in the second half of the bottle. Nara sake.
I bought this sake because it was on the shelf, but it was not to my liking. It was a little too long in storage, but the flavor was light and punchless. It was not a sake that I would use regularly for hot sake.
It is aged for two years and has a matured taste like Shaoxing wine. However, it is not heavy and can be drunk rather lightly, so it is good for beginners to matured sake.
