There is no liquor store near me that carries it, and I was curious about this brand, which I haven't tasted yet. I found it at a nearby supermarket 👀300ml is a good size for a trial 😊and it has a fruity aroma with a tin cup 🍶. It has a light richness, sweet and sour, with a nice spiciness after the sweet and sour. It also has a freshness for a hi-ire sake. As the sake cups are piled on top of each other, the pouring sake somehow turns cloudy white. In fact, it was orikarami 😌I should have mixed it earlier 🤣I couldn't see the bottle darkly 🥲The spiciness increases as the temperature rises. Salted salmon, pickled okra, kinpira, and happo chai.
Good evening, Waccho!
Yuki no Mayu is delicious 😋.
I made my debut with Sandesi as well when I was in the brewing forest, and it is a sweet, refreshing and easy to drink sake 🤗.
Happy Birthday me (greetings)
So, I'm one step closer to becoming araffi again...
Birthday celebration is the third souvenir from Niigata!
It's Yuki no Mayubara shochu made by Naeba Sake Brewery, which I had a chance to visit during my trip!
It's my first time to try shochu brewing, so I'm really looking forward to it!
The taste is... ohhh...
If you drink it like you usually drink Yukimayu, you will be surprised at the taste...
It is quite heavy. It starts with sweetness, but the alu feeling comes in a big way, and the aftertaste is sweet and tingling a little, and then disappears.
Well... this is not quite to my taste...
I'll try drinking it at different temperatures...
(Note 1)
When I raise the temperature, it becomes softer and more angular.
The sweetness is more intense and the heaviness is calmed down, but there is still a tingling aftertaste...
(Note 2)
This is a personal feeling, but... I felt the heaviness and sweetness similar to when I drank Ryujinmaru.
The complexity of the aftertaste is quite different...
Taste varies from person to person, so please forgive me.
Thanks for your comment, Pon-chan!
Well...I drank it in my usual Yukinomayu mood and was surprised to find that it gave me a big thump💦.
I would drink it cold anyway, or maybe warm it up...it's hard to handle!
Good evening, Mr. Udonpan!
Happy Birthday 🎉!
I only received Yukinomayu-san when it was brewed in the brewery forest 😲.
It's so different when the brewery changes 😋.
Thanks for your comment ma-ki-🥰.
I was following it from the brewing forest myself and was surprised at the considerable difference!
My body just can't get used to the difference lol.
Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments 🥰.
I think I'm still young at heart... but I'm getting a little rattled in a lot of ways lol.
I have to protect my liver...!
Happy Birthday 🎂 Happy Birthday 🎂 Happy Birthday 🎉You are still young 🤗In fact, I have to go to Naeba Sake Brewery this year because I received a brewery tour + in-store tasting ticket along with a return gift from a Kurafan I participated in last year (lol).
The series was bought at a nearby Ricaman.
I like the color.
Muscat-like aroma~.
Juicy sweetness! A handsome alcohol taste like a raw sake.
It has quite a lot of flavor, so maybe it's an after-dinner drink...
Next, we will have some Yuki no Mayu, a souvenir from my mother 🍶.
This is the first time I have had it after the name change from Brewing Forest.
The aroma is sweet and sour with hints of apricot and yogurt. On the palate, it has a mild sourness that disappears pleasantly. This is delicious.
It is enough to drink by itself, but it also goes well with ume rice crackers, shiso with fujikko, etc. I think it tastes better with a little bit of snacks. Delicious✨
Good evening, missamisao!
I have only had it when it was brewed in the forest, but I remember it was delicious and refreshing with a yogurt-like aroma 😋.
Good evening, ma-ki. It had a yogurt taste and was delicious😊I drank too much that day and got a hangover the next day, which turned out to be a sour memory 🥲.
Niigata Prefecture Naeba Sake Brewery Co.
Formerly brewed by Kozo Mori, the brand name has now been changed.
Sake rice is Gohyakumangoku produced in Niigata Prefecture.
Purchased locally. It was chilled in the refrigerator.
The acidity is strong and the flavor is fruity.
The umami of the rice is still there.
I think I'll have to chill this one.
For the record
Brewing Forest changed its name to "Yuki no Mayu" 😳.
Both are stylish names 🫶.
The taste was clean, sweet and delicious, just as the label implies👍.
