Shu when opened
No gassy feeling
Slightly koji-mixed grape-like top note
The same soft aroma as the first sip, the rich umami of rice and sweetness spread gradually with a little acidity, and it finishes with a slight bitterness and the spiciness of alcohol.
The overall volume of the wine is very generous, without being too sweet or aromatic for a Junmai Daiginjo, and it is delicious with a meal or as a stand-alone sake.
It goes well with dried herring and stir-fried pork and komatsuna.
Hi Masaaki Sapporo 🐦.
I'm also interested in this brand because I like many of the tastes of Okayama sake: ❣️
I see you still have snow on the ground 😳The bright snowfield is beautiful with the label ✨.
Winter moons that have been hard to find lately
Discovering the vermilion moon 💡.
It's been three years already.

Not as peachy🍑 feeling as I expected.
But I like this brand: ❤️

I happened to stop by a liquor store this time of year and made a connection.
I have always liked this sake, and the five-pack is our first meeting.
It has a nice aroma and is crisp and clean. It would be a shame not to know about this sake.
The Winter Moon series has a sweet, ginjo-like aroma and acidity.
Made entirely from "satoumi rice" produced in Okayama Prefecture, where the soil is improved with oyster shells from the Seto Inland Sea.
I found my favorite winter moon arabashiri.
But I have a cheap tongue, so I often regret buying arabashiri or doroguchi. I wondered whether I should buy it or not, but as my life master used to say
Everything is an experience. It's okay to fail. The important thing is what you do afterwards.
(It's not that big of a deal.) I decided to buy it.
The aroma is not extremely fruity, but it has an impressive concentration of sweet and sour, and it is a head-shakingly delicious wine. However, it leaves a bitter aftertaste, so instead of the gentleness that winter moon symbolizes, it has a hard sake feel.
For me, I found the regular Winter Moon to be satisfying enough.
I would buy it again 7/10
Hi there, Syrotama 😃.
Everything is an experience ‼️ kind or hard ⁉️ result normal enough 😋 was worth drinking 🤗.
I'd like to try Winter Moon 🌙 but it's a brand I haven't encountered yet 🥲.
Hi Jay & Nobby!
After all, everything is an experience. Dr. Inoki also said, "Don't hesitate, drink it and you will understand.
Winter Moon is very popular here, but it is not distributed there. If you see it, please try it!
Making peperoncino with rape blossoms and only ...
Amah!!!!
I've been enjoying cooking and making snacks too much since I switched to a wooden cutting board...
It has a soft, gentle, and elegant smell.
The liquid is smooth and smooth, but the mouthfeel is surprisingly light and the elegant sweetness spreads on the palate.
It is also delicious.
