I don't really like to drink Yamahai, but I was attracted by the Omachi & unfiltered raw sake, so I bought it.
The taste changed my image of Yamahai in a good way. It has a fruity aroma and the umami of rice, which is typical of Omachi, is also strong. It is also delicious with a hint of sweetness.
The label is as cool as ever!
Today, Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake by Tadashi from Sasaichi Shuzo in Yamanashi Prefecture: ❗️
The aroma is not much. The first sip has a fresh raw flavor and a dense texture on the tongue, followed by a slight bitter astringency. It doesn't have much of the heaviness of a hara-shu, but it has a complex flavor like a nama-hashiro or yamahai sake. ❗️ interesting sake. ❗️❗️

☔After-dinner drink on the porch while listening to the sound of rain 🍶.
Mild fruit aroma. Clear and beautiful color.
Faint gas feeling on the tip of the tongue. The acidity spreads out with the umami of the rice at the base.
The acidity spreads out.
The previous Akadan (Bizen Omachi when the label was red) had a little more sweetness.... I wonder if the sweetness does not come out until it is laid down.
Another round of drinks after the closing ceremony, as it was still good. This is my first time to drink Yamanashi sake. This one was too peculiar for me. So this is an extra.

The third glass was a summer sake✋.
Added corn tempura 🌽 to the entrée too‼️
By the third cup 🤔taste and smell are both down 50%⤵︎ fragrance...I don't feel it😭first attack is slightly sweet and then spicy and delicious sake‼️ this store always gives me good sake to drink‼️
Surprisingly, I had a bad feeling about Yamahai, but this one was easy to drink with little aroma and a sharp feeling in the throat 😊.
I also liked the tangy feeling because it's a raw sake 🍶.
I'd like to try a different "Duan" again: ‼︎
HAN Summer Junmai Ginjo
A heavenly sake that wears the clear waters of Fuji.
The moment you take a sip, you will feel the delicious taste of rice spreading across your tongue, and then the crispness will quickly disappear down your throat 😌.
It is a sake to be paired with red meat fish, meat dishes, and tempura 🍶🍣🍖🍤🍤🍤.
