うや
I heard a voice actor say that the sake of Yamaguchi Prefecture is delicious ottersai, but Toyo Bijin! So I bought it. It's very dry, and the first sip is so spicy that it's hard to believe, but the aftertaste disappears quickly. Yes, it is indeed delicious. I want to drink the other ones too. This is good. I also got some sake for the new year, but I'll post more about that in the New Year.

I'm not going to let anything stop me. Lightly crisp, fruity, sweet and sour aroma. Melon Horseback or Pear Because it is origari, it is light white. The aftertaste is moderately sour and refreshing. It is easy to drink and is perfect for when you want to lift your spirits.

This is my first Toyo Bijin. I had drunk Yachiyo Shuzo's Room twice and wondered what kind of Toyo Bijin was in its class, but I happened to find it at a store I had been visiting for a while, so I bought it on the spur of the moment! The standing aroma is tropical and a bit gorgeous with pineapple and melon fruits. Is this the sweetness of Oriental Beauty? The sweetness is firm but moist and not stinging! There is also an impression of peach in addition to the fruits mentioned earlier. It is sweet, but not unpleasantly so, and has a very elegant bitterness, so it can be paired with appetizers, such as salads and cheese. This is the taste of Miyamanishiki of Hanahayo and Junodai of Hachitanishiki, right? This is delicious! Speaking of fruity sweet sake without any corners, Ding was great, but Toyo Bijin is also great!

A male waiter recommended Toyo Bijin's Jihanbeni. I had had Jundo Ittou before, but this was my first time to try Jihanbeni. From the label, it looked delicious😋. When I drank it, I thought it would be sharp, but the sweetness and umami flavor spread quickly! Still, it has a light aftertaste, so it's not heavy and you can drink it easily 😆.

The aroma is sweet and sour and fruity. When you put it in your mouth, sweetness and umami taste first appear. After a moderate acidity, a slight bitterness comes, but it quickly disappears. 4.5/5

This is my first time to try Toyo Bijin. I saw this one at Sake-no-Wa as well as Twilight Orange and thought I'd like to try it someday, so I found it at Yajima Sake Shop and popped it in with the others 😁. I drank the Dusk Orange in one day and was still in the mood for more, but my first impression of this one was fresh green apples! The aroma was sweet and fresh like green apples, and the taste was easy to drink with a refreshing sweetness and light umami 😍The acidity was also refreshing and a little dry.
