Today's brewery is Kitayasu Brewery.
I had previously received a bottle of Kitayasu Okuni with the Uchide no Kozuchi label, which was deliciously sweet and fruity.
I have been waiting for a chance to get it again.
This time it is Iyari, a limited series brewed with Yamahai.
When the bottle is opened, it has a soft fruity aroma.
When you take a sip, the aroma is subdued and the soft fruity taste and milky flavor gently spreads on the palate. It has a moderate acidity and bitterness, and the taste is clean and refreshing.
It is better not to cool it down too much to enjoy its soft taste.
The balance of Yamahai fruity flavor is good.
Ah, it is delicious after all.
I can't help but drink too much of this sake while muttering, "Ah, it's delicious after all.
Tonight we will be drinking #Iyari Yamahai Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu from #Kitayasu Brewery in Omachi City, Nagano Prefecture.
I asked for a "kinky sake❗️" at my favorite liquor store and they came out with "Here you go❗️" 😆.
I loved the juiciness of Hokian Daigoku, so I was satisfied with it. The sweet acidity of Yamahai, like freshly cooked rice.
This is my second time to buy Iyari.
I thought it was delicious the last time I drank it, so I bought it again, and it's still delicious!
Last time I heated it up and it tasted different, so I want to taste that this time too!
This was the first time I drank Iyari's unfiltered, unpasteurized sake.
Very fruity and easy to drink.
Today at a gibier skewer restaurant in Kyoto.
Wild boar hearts and rabbit. This is also delicious.
It was sweet, but not only sweet, it was delicious... ☺️.
You can really taste the flavor of the rice and I enjoyed it to the fullest during and after the meal💕.
Is this the taste of Yamahai?
I don't know how to tell you how delicious this is because I don't have enough vocabulary ......🥺
I'm still learning about sake, so I'd love to try a variety of sakes! I thought 🌈
The other day we drank Kitajima of the Ikomoto-zukuri, and today we have Iyasato of the Yamahai-zukuri.
It's a sweet, moist sake that's delicious even when served cold. I've heard that Ikomoto and Yamahai sake taste better when heated, so I'll try it hot later.
I tried it lukewarm. It smells ridiculously sweet and delicious when you put your nose to it! Delicious!
It was so good that I looked it up on the internet and found someone who wrote about it below. This one is easier to understand!

When I heated it up again, it smelled and tasted like strawberry milk. Interesting!

I've had Beian Daigoku before, but this is the first time I've had Iyari. It is a lineup of Yamahai.
It has the same flavor as Hokan-Daikoku, but with the acidity of Yamahai. No, it might be good.
I'm not saying it might be, but it's good.
Nagano Prefecture. Omachi City. Kitayasu Brewing Company.
"Iyasato Yamahai Junmai Nama Genshu."
I was pulled by the melon-like label and bought it.
I think most of the sake from Nagano prefecture is 59% polished.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Rice used: 100% Hitogochi
Rice polishing ratio: 59%.
Alcohol content: 16 degrees
Sake degree / Acidity: -6 / 2.2
Amino acidity: 1.9
Yeast: Association 701
Serve cold.
The color is a little yellow.
It has a slightly sweet aroma with a strong alcohol smell.
In the first sip, you can feel the sweetness of acid and alcohol.
On the second sip, you can feel the rich sweetness and the richness of rice.
On the third sip, you can feel the lactic acid and amino acid flavor of Yamahai.
It is interesting that it is quite complex flavored with alcohol, sweetness, richness of rice and a little lactic acidity.
As the temperature rises, the richness and sweetness of the amino acids become even richer, and there is a slight tingling sensation.
The taste is solid, so it's like a rich sweet flavor.
Nagano sake is my favorite 😋.
Good morning, sleepyhead healer.
It's delicious sake from Nagano prefecture. 😋
I thought they were famous for their wine 🍷 but I learned that their sake ❽ is also delicious.
