I was expecting a normal sake, but when I saw the specs, I was surprised 😳 It's a backward compatible of Limonada 😅 The color, aroma and taste are exactly the same. The difference is the faint gassy taste?
I tried it with soda water. I'm sure I'll gobble it up if I do this.

We went to Okura Honke Ekima Enomise, but unfortunately it was closed 😢.
The sake level and acidity is shocking, surpassing Shiroku "Bali Acid" 😳 The label on the back says "extra".
The color is lemon 🍋 The aroma? Hard to describe the aroma. Not a very tasty aroma 😅.
The sweetness spreads to the top of the palate. Then a strong sourness kicks in. ❗️ and then the bitter taste. It's easy to drink with ice 🍶 I recommend it for hot summer 🍶❗️ but the aroma is too strong for my nose 🤭.
My wife says it might be good as a sorbet 🤗 I wish I could have had this at Ekima Enomise and asked the store owner about it.
I think my wife and I will drink it up after Mimuro Cedar 😋.
Good evening, Matsuchiyo-san 🍶.
I live along the Kintetsu Osaka line, so we are neighbors with Nyoi 🤗.
I don't drink much Okura, and I'm thinking of exploring it in the future.

I had always passed on it because of the cartoony label, but Matsuchiyo's post got me curious and I bought it 😁.
I thought it would be refreshing since it's a summer sake, but it has a rich sweetness.
I didn't think it was watered down, but it was so heavy.
The second half is a little bit peculiar and you can feel Okura's character even though it's a summer sake.
Wooooo!
This is amazing!
I haven't been amazed since Tamagawa's Yamahai Junmai Sake!
It is pineapple-like, mild and rich.
However, it is not too rich.
I tried drinking it with ice in the middle.
It tastes so good!
The alcohol content is in the 17 degree range, and the flavor, reminiscent of kijo sake, has a strong impact.
If you drink it thinking that it is a nama-shu, you will be betrayed, for better or worse.
It may be good as a food sake with strong flavored dishes. It is quite tough to drink by itself.
I was interested in buying it when I saw a post on a social networking site that said it was like a lemon! I was interested in buying it when I saw a post on a social networking site that said it was like a lemon!
If you have ever had Okura's mizuhashi, you would say, "Oh, it's Okura. It is sweet and mild. No riceiness.
There is also a slight ripeness aroma, like that of so-called Shaoxing wine.
It is a Limene, so is it crisp? You might be surprised at how mellow it is lol.
However, it is certainly one of the more acidic Okura, so it is not as heavy as you might think.
Interesting sake in the sense that it is an unusual sake😄.
