For the finale, I decided on Kuroemon XVI. Since it was Aizan, it was not too sweet, but it was easy to drink due to its low alcohol content. I checked the description of the sake and found that it was Yamahagasa, but I didn't mind. It was a very satisfying sake party, and I wanted to finish it off with something a little lighter.
At the last raffle, we won a bottle of Matsu no Tsukasa.
It looks somewhat spicy, but I will open it when the time is right.
Nagano Sake
Kuroemon 16th Generation Yamahai Junmai Aki-agari
I have wanted to drink this sake for a long time. It was hard to find a place that sold it, and finally I was able to get it. The sake brewery is located at the highest altitude in Japan. The aroma is subdued, and when you drink it, it has a sweet and sour taste. I think this feeling is similar to that of Hiraizumi. It has a fruitiness, but it is not extremely juicy. It is a taste that one does not get tired of drinking. It is amazing that a sake with 80% rice polishing ratio is so clean and tasteless.
Degree of liking 9/10
When the bottle is opened, it has a sweet fruit aroma reminiscent of melon and apple that is somewhat subdued, but when you drink it, the aroma suddenly changes to a dark warm citrus acidity that spreads out in a sizzle, with a robust impact of classic sake's withered acidity and umami. Surprisingly, it goes well with karinto. It is good to drink slowly in the fall.
I see that the new sake is already out. There are still some fall sake 🍂 I bought a bottle of Juroemon Jugendai Kuroemon's Autumn Ari. It's my first time drinking this brand so I don't know the overall flavor, but it's a junmai yamahai sake, so as you can imagine, the acidity is pronounced and the taste is complex😳 As you drink it, you get used to it and it becomes addictive. I like this type of sake sometimes. I can drink this type of sake more and more compared to when I first started drinking sake.
Good evening, Mr. Studying 😃😃.
Congratulations on your first 16th Kuroemon ㊗️ 🎉The more you drink, the more your tastes expand 🤗It really is bottomless 😆
Good morning, Jay & Nobby. Thank you for your comment. It was still difficult for me to find the mountain waste 😓Although I'm sure I'll buy it again from time to time 😄.
A very tasty drink I had last year: ❗️
I think it's less bananas than last year 🤔.
But you can feel the umami and the acidity that is typical of Yamahai sake.
It's a delicious sake that is typical of autumn sake👍
It's a versatile type of sake that goes well with a variety of meals😃.
Sweet aroma.
The unexpectedly smooth mouthfeel is followed slowly by sweetness and a gentle acidity.
The taste is crystal clear and leaves the same impression as it is.
It is also good on the rocks.
Kuroemon 16th Generation Yamahai Junmai Autumn Agari. The flavor is quite punchy as it is a once-hired sake. This punch is quite impressive for a hiyaoroshi sake.
Today, Kuroemon 16th Generation, Yamahai Junmai, from Kiso, Nagano, Japan: ❗️
There is not much aroma. After a sip, it has a complex but clean taste like an old Yamahai sake with a tingling sensation after the dense texture of the original sake on the tongue. ❗️❗️ Good as a mealtime sake. ⭕️
Juroemon 16th Kuroemon Yamahai Junmai Miyamanishiki 13
The aroma is faintly vinegared iso! The 🍌
The taste is quite acidic! It doesn't have the heaviness of Yamahai, but rather the sweet acidity of a modern sake! It's more like a modern sake with a sweet and sour taste!
The aftertaste is also sharp and quickly disappears from the mouth!
I like this 13 degrees series...I want to buy more this season! ☺️
