Mimuro cedar, wooden vat, Bodai yeast, dewy leaves wind
The aroma is like a ripe melon 🍈 The first sip is sweet and soft with good acidity.
The first sip feels sweet and soft with moderate acidity.
It has volume and depth of flavor. The bitterness and astringency come and go, and it finishes the taste 🥰.

Mimuro Cedar Wooden Oke Bodhi yeast SPARKLING.
This is a collaboration of the Bodai Hashiro method, which originated in the 1400s at Shoryakuji Temple in Bodaiyama, Nara Prefecture, and the Champagne method, which originated in the 1600s at a monastery in the Champagne region!
The nose has a subtle banana-like nuance and a strong bubbly sensation that makes it hard to believe that this is a second fermentation in bottle, and is truly reminiscent of Champagne.
The extremely dry mouthfeel, the layered flavor brought out by the Bodai yeast and the sharp acidity add to the smooth aftertaste.
I bought it for New Year's Day, but couldn't resist opening a bottle 😛.
I'll try it without mixing the lees first.
It has a sweet and sour taste with a carbonated piquancy that I can't get enough of.
It's like Fanta Golden Apple (nostalgic~) 🤣.
When the lees are mixed well, it tastes like astringency and bitterness with an added sharpness ❕.
The sweetness and acidity that were so disparate until now, when mixed with the lees, became a cohesive taste like a magic trick 🤗.
In no time at all, the four-pack was empty!

Good evening, Kuri the woodsman 😃This is a delicious drink that can be enjoyed twice! Golden Apple, I miss it. I felt the clear liquor part was like a rum....
Good morning, Jay & Nobby!
I happened to have a reissue Fanta Golden Apple the other day, so maybe that's why I felt that way 🤭.
Anyway, it was delicious ❕.
Good morning, Jyunichi-san.
It is true that it has the feeling of a Ramune, doesn't it?
I'm from the generation that only knows the glass bottle with marbles in it. 🤣
-Mimuro Cedar
My favorite "Mimuro Cedar" for a long time.
Fresh, clear and delicious,
It's still as excellent as ever.
I continue to be attracted to it because of its divinity.
I want to drink it again.
Imanishi Shuzo's "Mimuro Sugi Wooden Oke Bodhi Hashiwado In-house Tada Yamada Nishiki".
Imanishi, the 14th generation brewer of Imanishi Sake Brewery, whose philosophy is "Culture✕ History✕ Soil✕ Handicraft", has brewed by his own hands a superb product, "Mimuro-Sugi Wooden Oke Bodeshi Hashiwado In-house Yamada Nishiki".
The brewer himself works in his own rice field, a ten-minute walk from the brewery, and brews this sake with Miwa-san Yamadanishiki rice grown in the same vein as Mimuro-sugi's brewing water, Miwa-san's subsoil water from Mount Miwa.
The rice is harvested to make sake, and the resulting sake lees are returned to the rice paddies as fertilizer to grow rice.
The energy of the earth in Miwa, Nara Prefecture, is concentrated in the wooden bucket Bodaiyuan.
The upper aroma is that of banana.
In the mouth, the multi-layered yet beautiful umami, the cool aroma derived from the wooden vat, and the clothed miscellaneous flavors slowly cover the premises.
The aftertaste is fine yet powerful, with a long aftertaste produced by the acidity and big presence of umami.
Ingredients 100% "Yamadanishiki" grown in our own rice fields in Miwa, Nara Prefecture (Polishing ratio: undisclosed)

Crab Sashimi✨
Today we invited my parents for a crab party 🥳 After enjoying sake and crab sashimi, we enjoyed snow crab and king crab in crab shabu 💖.
Both my father and mother love crab, so it was a pleasure to see them happily eating it with their daughters 😊✨.

Yes, the Kanji characters for "Sanmorosugi"!
This one is a what a Honjozo! It says brewing alcohol on the label~!
Is it rare? This is the first time I've ever tasted Alcoholic Mimorosugi.
They say it's a "long-selling product for 30 years."
No, no, 30 years is not unusual~!
Slightly effervescent. It is very tasty. It's not too sweet, it's more like a cider that's a little bit more subdued~.
Rice polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 13%.
The raw material rice is "Rohafu" produced in Nara prefecture.
The rice is "Rohafu" produced in Nara Prefecture, but the sake is bottled after being mixed with the strained oli from the unrefined sake made with Yamadanishiki.
The first freshly pressed sake of the season!
A soft and fruity aroma.
Beautiful orizumi flavor.
Milky sweetness with a sharp aftertaste!
It's so delicious!
I really love Mimuro cedar. ❤️
Unstoppable deliciousness!
I should have bought another bottle...
