Good sharpness! It doesn't seem to linger too much.
I wanted to drink it with a meal.
The label is too cute...lol

のちを
Yamanashi sake. I saw it for the first time.
I heard there's a floral yeast research group at Tokyo University of Agriculture.
What is vine rose yeast?
I heard there are a lot of different sake rice varieties out there.
I can't really remember what it tastes like because there is so much information.
It's clear and refreshing. Is it bitter or astringent? I wasn't sure about the flower yeast.

I think the professor of flower yeast at Tokyo University of Agriculture was quite famous, and the brewers of Raifuku and Laughing Four Seasons were also from his lab when he was a student 😙.

Hi Rigel, I'm quintessential that you even have the professor in your head! Keep me posted on everything!

This will be the last Xuanwu in the Qinghuang Four Gods series.
I forgot to take a picture before drinking💦.
The day I opened the bottle, it felt a bit hard, so I left it in the fridge for 3 days.
The top aroma is slightly sweet with a hint of alcohol.
I don't think it has a floral yeast feel.
When you put it in your mouth, it has a mild sweetness with a slight astringency.
The slight astringency gradually fades away.
The astringency is a bit prominent.
After leaving it for a while and letting the temperature rise, a sweet aroma and sweet flavor emerged.
However, I don't think it has much of a floral yeast taste.
My personal evaluation of this year's four gods
Suzaku (Hatsushibori) > Seiryu (Omachi) > Genbu (Miyamanishiki) > Byakko (Gohyakumangoku)
Suzaku was the most delicious, with a gorgeous aroma and sweet flavor from the floral yeast.
Last year's Byakkora was similar, but I wonder if it was due to the high temperature disorder of the rice.
I'm looking forward to next year again! 🍶

I was so impressed with the obvious taste of STAR GAIZER last year that I got carried away and bought two bottles this year!
The clarity is amazing! So clear that you can feel the stars and the starry void in the night sky. There is a unique richness from it and the first day it was ...... honestly not very tasty! LOL!
But from the second day, STAR GAIZER is in its element and very tasty!
The sweetness is moderate, but there is a sourness and a delicious flavor, and it is delicious without any cloying taste!
I remember that it was very tasty on its own last year, but this time it is also good on its own! But I thought it was clearly better with a meal! Maybe it's because this year's sake is stronger than last year's.
If you ask me what it goes well with, I can't think of anything, but I think it would go well with Western food, light Italian food, and snacks that don't contain much oil. If it is Japanese, it went well with nabe (hot pot)!

Kitasha City, Yamanashi Prefecture. Take-no-i Sake Brewery Co.
Seikou Seiryu Yumachi Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo Tsurubara Yeast Brewing
Yes, maybe I am an omatist! I recently started to think that I might be an omatist, and bouken-san recommended this "Seikou" to me.
Seikou's Four Gods (Suzaku, Byakko, Seiryu, and Genbu) series is a series of undiluted sake made with Tsurubara yeast. The sake rice is different depending on the shipping time, and the brewing process is also a little different.
Serve it cold.
The color is clear and transparent.
The aroma is fruity with a slight sourness.
The mouthfeel is juicy and tongue-tingling.
The palate is fresh and fruity, with a refined sweetness and a tartness that is not sharp on the tongue.
It is fruity, with a little bit of umami richness, and a little bitterness in the aftertaste.
It is like a little bit of umami richness, sourness, and bitterness developing on the tongue, wrapped in an oval cover 🤔.
The sense of omachi in my image was weak, but perhaps because it is made with flower yeast, it leaves a strangely unique impression 😋bouken, it was delicious 👍.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Rice used: 100% Omachi
Polishing ratio:50%.
Alcohol content: 17.5

Good morning, Nemuchi 😃.
Glad you enjoyed the drink 🤗
Did you feel the taste change was not so bad since you said you would finish it in 2 days?
Japanese>English
ねむち
Hi bouken, I finished it in 2 days and the only taste change was a calming sensation, I didn't notice the bitter and pungent upswing 😊I'm glad I finished it early 🤔I might have dared to try it after the 3rd day...

I bought it because I had a good impression after drinking it at the Sake-1 Grand Prix and Mr. Matsuchiyo recommended the raw version 😁.
I bought it at Okuhiroya in Kayashima.
They also sold Miyamanishiki and Aizan with Tsurubara yeast, but I thought this one was more to my liking in terms of specs!
The top aroma is mild but gorgeous. In the mouth, it is slightly effervescent and fruity, with a very juicy sweet flavor. It tastes like grapes and apples. The end taste is moderately bitter. The impression is quite different from the fire-aged one I had at an event the other day and I really like it.
I think the taste changes too much if you don't finish it within a day or two after opening. The sweetness has diminished and it has become bitter and spicy...
I think Neemuchi would like this 🤔.

Good evening bouken🍶.
I'm glad you liked it 😊.
I wish the brewery could have brought the sake on draft instead of fire-aged for the Sake-1 Grand Prix🤔.

bouken, good evening 🌛I'm glad you asked for me 😁I'm not too impressed with sake-1, but if bouken says this is the type I like too, I'll have to buy it 🤣I'm going to go buy it soon 🚗💨.

The blue bottle reminds me of a refreshing summer sake, it looks delicious to look at😇.
By the way, it's too awesome that you're defending to Kayashima 🤣.

Good evening, Matsuchiyo 😃
I like flower yeast so I was curious about the other specs 🤔Thanks for the recommendation 🙏I wonder if the brewery didn't have any fresh sake in stock 🤔.

Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi 😃.
Sorry for the name calling 😅I think it's probably at its peak when it's just opened 🤔I'm nervous that I'll become an idiot if Mr. Nemuchi doesn't get into it 🫣.

Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
All the alcohol here was in blue bottles, so I wonder if it's a cross between blue and blue for blue shimmer? I thought 🤔
Kayashima is only one transfer away from the nearest station, so it's surprisingly easier to get there than Sukuimasa 😁.
