First issue.
Cold sake
Subdued fruity aroma.
Sharp mouthfeel with ample umami flavor.
The acidity tightens the taste and gives it a sharp aftertaste.

Today's main course was sashimi and mackerel stew, so I chose this sake as it would be perfect as a mid-meal drink! 🌝 I expected Niigata's test sake to leave some light and dry taste, and I was right 🌝 It is not sweet like today's sake, but it is easy to drink! It was a good sake.

Yamashiroya Rusui Imameya Hanpukai Limited Stock
Brewed with TR8 (Niigata yeast) and 60% polished rice from Ipponshime sake rice.
This is the first time I've had it, but the slightly sweet, moderate acidity and bitterness spread out in a well-balanced manner, and it was surprisingly well received.

Yuko
A mountain castle shop that asks to be there.
This large mountain label is,
"Back to the mountains, back to the roots."
A bottle of Yamashiroya's new challenge.
The new Yamashiroya aims to return to its roots. Embraced by the rich mountains of Tochio, Niigata, and supported by the life-giving water and soil of the region, we have now returned to the "mountains" once again.
The label is decorated with a design that symbolizes "mountain," the hometown of sake.

ペンギンブルー
Fruity, glossy and sweet aroma.
The texture is smooth and clear when you drink it.
The acidity of the sake is round and mild while producing a crisp feeling.
From the standing aroma, both sweetness and flavor are moderate,
It is sweet and delicious, and beautiful. It has a youthful bitterness.
Sake with a sense of elegance.
4/5 stars for my favorite.

Haste
It was the first time I had ever had this sake, and I was told that it was the highest quality sake among Yamashiroya's standard offerings. It was slightly effervescent and easy to drink, with a robust umami flavor and a lingering aftertaste.

2025.145th.
After a while of nigori sake, I tried a regular sake.
However, this was my first time to try Yamashiya.
It tasted somewhat like Japanese pear, which was the first time I drank it.
I thought it would be light and dry since it was made in Niigata, but it had the freshness of new sake with a hint of sweetness.
I was impressed by the variety of Niigata's sake.
It was delicious.
Thank you very much.

Sake of the month for November. Sake made from sake rice called Ipponshime. It is a clean and refreshing sake. It lacks a little umami. There is no aftertaste. It is a delicious sake, just a matter of taste preference.

When it settles down, the aroma is of young banana-like sweetness and umami with a hint of lactic acidity in the back.
The nose is slightly thickened, and the sweetness and acidity are constant, and then the bitter taste is followed by the acidity, which ends in the mouth without a long aftertaste. Not particularly dry.
A little roughness on the tongue.
The taste is a constant parometer from start to finish. It is a very gentle food wine!

Imadeya hanpukai😊It was my first bottle 🎉.
The theme is transparency 🩷‼️ yeah it's not too spicy but has a nice sharpness 👍Today was kimchi nabe so the sharpness harmony is also good 🥰Kire-kei sake goes well with nabe. Another winter treat💕.
For impressions of the sake by itself, shinsaku3 is in charge 💕.

Good evening, Mr. Peckho!
The label is simple but has a great impact ✨I wonder if it's like Niigata's light and dry sake? I guess kimchi nabe with sharp sake goes well with kimchi nabe 😘In winter, nabe and sake is the way to go. ❣️

Hi Pekho 😃
I read shinsaku3's review first 🙂 I see that kimchi nabe seems to go well with it 😋.
I think your two reviews make me feel that Yamashiroya is complete 😄.

Hina Hana Mama 🩷The label was also very austere and strangely sharp😍.
Yes, nabe season is here! I wonder if it's like a crisp reset of the monotony of nabe with sake? I wonder what kind of nabe you have at your mom's place? Please let me know again ❤️

Jay & Nobby 🩷 Good evening, did you two get it written while writing your review? We were both writing reviews and drinking! Sometimes we post together without even checking each other's work, and then we read each other's reviews and are surprised ‼️ 🤭🤣❤️

We received IMADEYA's Sake Subscription GUITO 😃.
This is the first sake in the November issue!
According to the description of GUITO
The challenge this time was how to express a sense of transparency despite being a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast. The mild acidity derived from the sake yeast softly envelops the whole body, and the finish has the umami of rice and a hint of sweetness. As the name "Rusui" implies, the theme of the bottle is transparency, and the clear impression and gentle aftertaste are in harmony with each other.
Delicious 😋.
I see 🧐.
The lactic acidity characteristic of sake yeast, which I dislike a little, is much milder, and the umami and the clarity of the water are in good harmony👍.
It is a little bit light by itself, but on the contrary, it doesn't affect the taste of the food.
Pairing impressions were made by Pekho 😅
Here are my personal impressions😅😅

Congratulations on your first Yamashiroya 🎉 ㊗️
We've had a bottle of it outside drinking 🤔 but overall it's a light one and a good food wine!

Good evening Jay & Nobby 😃.
Thank you 😊
Yes😄I think it can be a food sake 🍶 even though it's a sake made in the traditional way 👍.
In that sense, maybe a new challenge 🧐.

We went on a bar crawl in Nara.
It was called Yamashiroya, so I ordered it, but it was summer sake.
It's totally fine because the weather is still warm.
It was a refreshing summer sake with a milky aroma and dryness.
