First "Yuki no Mayu".
I've had a bottle of "Brewing Forest" before, but this is the first time for me to drink it,
But this is the first time for me to drink "Yuki no Mayu".
It was nigori (cloudy),
It was a nigori, but the sweetness was reduced and it was easier to drink.
The hotel offered all-you-can-drink breakfast.
It was great.
I want to drink it again.
When poured, it is cloudy.
The aroma is a fresh, gorgeous fruity type.
The taste is "sweet, full, citrusy, and refreshing acidity.
The acidity stands out while drinking. There is a creamy acidity with a hint of ooziness, but the citric "sourness" is strong. It goes well with mozzarella and cream cheese.
The brewer says that it also goes well with pizza and pâté de campagne, so it may be better to make it stronger in flavor to make it compatible with this strong acidity.
Please try it.
Sweet and fruity aroma. Pear?
Relatively strong gassiness.
Light and refreshing. An aperitif.
The first taste in the mouth is sourness, followed by a moderate sweetness and bitterness.
It does not have much of a sake taste, but more like a sour.
4.5/5
I have been curious about "Yuki no Mayu" for a long time.
I found a 300ml bottle at a nearby liquor store and bought it.
The aroma is mildly fruity, like a pear.
In the mouth, the fruity taste spreads from a gentle gasiness, and the umami of the rice moderately follows.
The acidity and the lingering taste in the nose are pleasant at the end.
Since it is 14%, it can be drunk quickly and easily, so in a sense, it is a sake that requires caution.
The 300 ml bottle is easy to keep on hand and easy to buy, which makes me happy.

This was my first time drinking Yuki no Mayu. It was fruity but I couldn't tell what kind of fruit it was, and it was slightly fizzy and refreshingly sweet with a slight bitterness.
I liked it better after the second day, when the fizz had lessened, because I could taste more sweetness.
I can't drink much, but as someone who likes to try different brands, the 300 ml bottles are very welcome.
