Ume-no-yado Warm Junmai
I can feel the sense of sake in my veins.
I don't know what I'm talking about!
It has a sweet and umami taste, which is a traditional sake taste.
It starts with the traditional sake feeling of sweetness and umami, and goes straight through.
I hope you get the idea.
There is no bitterness or acidity.
Would you say it is the feeling of sake and the ~ is gone?
Shouwa ni honshu (hiragana)
or rather, the feeling of being "I'm not sure.
Ume-no-Yado's Unfined Series, Terroir. At room temperature.
The color is like mirin (sweet sake), and the aroma is sweet with a sense of maturity. The taste is deeply aromatic and richly sweet, like milk cocoa, and I couldn't help but say, "Huh?" I said. The lingering aftertaste is a sourness and umami that is typical of Japanese sake.
I was beginning to wonder if this was a very unique sake or if my taste buds were not right.
Transparent with a slight yellowish tinge. Slightly apple-like aroma. The aroma is weak. The hint of aroma is exactly apple-like. Exquisite balance of acidity and astringency. A lingering umami flavor. Medium aftertaste. Mellow sake.
It was almost an alcoholic mikan drink.
It does not come with "Aragoshi" as it seems to be a Costco limited brand.
The amount of mikan crushed mandarin oranges also varied from bottle to bottle.
The alcohol content is low (5%), sweet, and easy to drink.
Since it is from Costco, it is of course a bottle and needs to be refrigerated, so you need to be careful what you do with it after you buy it home.
This is the sake that was served at the sake festival at the Ojin Shrine ⛩️. Each person was given sake in a bag from the shrine. I think all the sake was from Nara, but I couldn't tell what was in the bag until I looked into it.
Here is the sake I received. This is another sake that is new to me.
I remember tasting their liqueur at a tasting event somewhere, and the plum and mikan were delicious.
This sake has a strong alcohol smell with a twang.
The taste is classic. It is crisp but not unbalanced. When I warmed it up to lukewarm, it reminded me of the taste my father used to drink and I felt nostalgic.
It has become much colder today. It's time to drink hot sake.
I bought some sake for heating sake when I went shopping this month, but I didn't know I'd be opening it so soon 😅.
This is also my first brand. I've been thinking of having it someday, but haven't been able to get my hands on it yet.
We enjoyed it with sukiyaki.
