Rated 4.4

President Yamamoto, who thoroughly pursues koji production, has arranged the type of koji molding and koji making temperatures, thereby keeping the production of amino acids low and giving it an outstanding sharp taste. The result is a sake that is perfect for the Yamamoto series, which emphasizes juiciness and sharpness with a good acidity. The palate is fresh, acidic and refreshing, with a very approachable, modern taste, Yamamoto-style Kame-no-o.
Light, slightly pineapple and grape-like aroma. The acidity is refreshing. The lingering dry bitterness inherent in nama sake is a bit harsh.
Mild and discreet but refreshing aroma.
The acidity is refreshing but not too strong.
Easy to drink without any habits.

55%, 15 degrees, tangy on the palate, grape-like aroma in the mouth, juicy, elegant, gentle sweetness, and a smooth disappearing aftertaste, delicious!
I was attracted by the turquoise blue label! Akita sake, delicious.
I am curious about the comments on the label on the back! Who are the Yasui brothers, sake rice growers🤣.
Turquoise" means "to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck," I found out later. I found out later. Here's to hoping for good luck!
I finally came across Yamamoto's raw sake and immediately bought it. Purple label with golden letters, noble atmosphere.
It has a strong umami flavor! It has a good acidity and freshness. It has a nice sharpness, so it is easy to drink despite its deep flavor.
It was quite delicious! Thank you for the food 😊.
The aroma is very sweet, and there is a subtle hint of gassyness.
After the clear, slightly sweet and easy-drinking taste, you can feel the sharpness of the sake.
It is a light and easy to drink sake.
Ko-ken Nobuko is a rice made in Akita, Japan. It is characterized by its cool name and rarity. Naturally, this turquoise is also a valuable sake, and it is distributed preferentially within the prefecture and is hard to find outside the prefecture. On the back of the label, there is a note about the Yasuda brothers who produced the rice. This brewery is interesting because the president has such a sense of humor.
As for the taste, it seems to be characterized by a refreshing acidity. This one tastes like green apple and grapefruit, not too sweet and refreshing. It does not have much bitterness, and is refreshing yet fruity and delicious.
