This sake is a sister sake that differs only in yeast from Pure Black? I don't know, but Pure Black was delicious, so I have high expectations 🥰🥰🥰 The slightly subdued top shelf has a fruity and refreshing aroma. When you drink it, it has a bitter sweetness, bitter overtones, and a tangy, spicy, and refreshing finish. It has a pleasant bitterness and sharpness without drawing too much sweetness 👌It is richer and sweeter than pure black. The balance with the lingering aftertaste is also good 👍👍👍Tonight's entrée is Don Taco and Tabasco ◎.
This is Yamamoto Pure Black Nama Sake 🍶.
This is the first time to drink Nama Sake.
The top aroma is slightly sweet like honey.
The aroma is less intense than that of the previous Hanaoyokyu, but it is more gorgeous than that of the Pure Black Hi-New.
In the mouth, it is clear and mildly sweet with a hint of banana🍌 flavor.
I think the aroma is pulling me in, but I also feel a stronger sweetness compared to the fire-brewed version.
It was delicious 🍶✨️
Yamamoto needs to release more draft sake for seasonal products, not for year-round products 🤔.
Good evening, Matsuchiyo!
I didn't know they have pure black raw sake!
I thought that's all they had 😅 because the places that usually have it are all fire-brewed.
I would like to try this👍
It has a mellow caramel-like sweetness and umami flavor. Although it is a noble sake, it is not too sweet, and the acidity gives it a sharpness that makes it very good.
