I was curious about this brand, "Yuki no Mayu" from Niigata.
It is a rare sake brewed in a single-stage brewing process, so I was wondering if it was sweet and sour 🤔. I was imagining how it would taste 🤔.
Refreshing sweet yogurt aroma.
From the gaseous mouthfeel, the sweet and sour taste with a hint of creaminess lingers on the nose.
Aftertaste: a good taste of rice and bitterness that goes through to the nose!
Although the alcohol content is a little low at 14 degrees, it is surprisingly strong and gives a satisfying depth to the aftertaste.
The taste was somewhat distant after opening, but after letting it sit overnight, it became a very enjoyable sake with a strong aftertaste, especially in the latter half of the bottle ✨.
This time, I selected orikarami sake.
The appearance is quite cloudy white.
The aroma is a bit of rice, and when you put it in your mouth, you can feel the acidity added to the sweet sake.

It is just right for summer.
It was so easy to drink, I finished it all by myself in no time.

Good day!
It's going to be another hot week. ☀️
Today is the first time here 🥰 since the name change.
A liquor store in my neighborhood started carrying it when it was brewed in the forest and before I knew it, the name was changed 🤣.
It has a fruity aroma and a crisp acidity that makes it very easy to drink and delicious 😎.
Is this the first time since the name change 🤔
Very easy to drink ☺️
Just the right amount of sweetness and sourness to make it easy to drink 🥰.
It's been a hot day, so a drink as easy to drink as this is going to go a long way 😁.
I posted about sake on another social networking site and was told about this sake in passing. I bought a Junmai Ginjo and a Junmai Daiginjo to compare.
It was the same as the junmai ginjo, but with a bit more orikarami. It has the same perfect acidity, and I could hardly tell the difference, but I felt that this one probably has less clutter and more pronounced acidity due to the more polished nature of the sake.
I think I prefer the Junmai Ginjo.

It's a very good taste with just the right amount of sweetness and acidity. It tastes like Calpis, which is good for summer.
