It had been sitting still for about a month after purchase, but the supernatant was only about 1/3 full of the net lees.
The first sip of the supernatant was a rich sweetness that was like (peach + banana)/2.
Next, shake the bottle gently and pour it into a glass, and it turns into a sludge. The texture is like amazake, with a few grains of rice remaining on the tongue.
The taste is well-balanced, with the deliciousness of the rice covering the fruity sweetness.
Thank you very much for the meal.
It is made from a slightly special sake rice called "Shunyo," and was very tasty, with a muscat-like flavor and a firm aftertaste that matched well with the gusto of Nakashimaya. I was glad to be able to serve it to everyone in the seminar.
When opened, it has a strong aroma of melon just before ripeness. When you drink it, it has a wood vat-like nuance and a flavor of the white part of the melon, almost like melon rind. The sweetness is very strong, but the concentration of other flavor elements is a bit lacking. Also, it is a bit bitter. This is the kind of flavor you often encounter when ordering sake for around 1,000 yen per cup at a sake tavern.
Second day. The taste became thicker and the bitterness disappeared! But as you take two or three sips, it becomes hot and bitter. It is better to drink it quickly with water to soften it without rolling it on the tongue.
P Strong and good aroma
C Bad aftertaste
Likelihood of buying again 3/10

Working in Yamaguchi from today, I went out for a little drink as well as dinner last night.
After a few beers, my first sake was my first sake.
Nakashimaya
Slightly sweet, beautiful sake.
Clear.
You don't feel the 16-17% alcohol content, it just goes down smoothly (is this common these days?). 🤣)
As you drink it, you can feel the sourness little by little.
Delicious 😋.
I also had fried blowfish.
The waiter recommended it to me and brought it to me.
The waitress brought it to me as a recommendation. It is crisp, spicy and delicious! It's crisp, spicy, and delicious!
Nakajimaya has been a fan since I found it in Yamaguchi. I bought one at a roadside station.
It is still delicious.
I think the Junmai was easier to drink, but it is a good sake in its own right, and I recommend the Junmai to anyone who just enjoys sake.
I would recommend Junmai to anyone who only enjoys Japanese sake.
I think I found a good sake, Nakajimaya.
I had never seen it in Tokyo, so...
All of them are delicious, and now, the autumn rise.
But unfortunately, I was so drunk that I don't remember much...
Let's drink again.
I drank it for the first time.
I was amazed at the depth of sake, and how many other delicious sake products are still hidden away... I can't stop.
I can't stop.
It's unfiltered, but easy to drink, and has a strong flavor.
I have decided on a bottle to take home as a souvenir.
