It was the first sake brand I came in contact with through direct overseas purchasing. It tasted fantastic and gorgeous at the time, but perhaps it was because my palate has become more sophisticated, and the sake was sweet and featureless. But it is a sake full of memories. The last time I had it, it was a purple Yamadanishiki.
Yui-like sweetness is still present.
The balance of simple flavor and good acidity is exquisite. ‼️
I think there may be a hint of Sanzen Sakura taste in there somewhere, but I don't have the palate to understand that much.
It's as delicious as I expected 😋.
It is clear with yellowish tints and has aromas of yogurt, pear, honeysuckle, and cooked rice. The attack is rather strong, with a refreshing acidity, a mild sweetness, and a rather long finish.
Luxurious special junmai made with Akaban Omachi
The slightly rugged flavor of special junmai is understated, and the taste is so clean and delicious that you would not even know it was junmai ginjo!
Polishing ratio 60%, alcohol content 16%, 100% Akaban Omachi
Yui Yui is made by the toji of Yuki Shuzo at the Sanzen Sakura Brewery in Hokkaido. It has a strong Yui Yui flavor. Delicious!
I've lived in Yuki City, but I've never actually had a drink.
The aroma is mellow mango.
It has a mild sweetness and umami flavor, and can be enjoyed on its own or as an in-between-dinner drink.
I would like to try other specs as well.
