Not much aroma, faintly banana-like.
The taste of rice is refreshingly sweet.
There is a slight bitterness, but it does not linger and is pleasantly sharp.

This is an apple liqueur from Yokobue-san of Suwa Gokura.
When I visited Yokobue-san's brewery before, I enjoyed their junmai sake plum liqueur but regretted recklessly not taking it home 🥲.
This time, I found Yokobue's apple liqueur at a liquor store in Shimosuwa, so of course I immediately decided to try it✨.
It's a lightly sweet apple liqueur ‼️, but if you get carried away and guzzle it, the aftertaste leans toward junmai sake 🤭.
I make shochu plum wine every year at home, but apparently junmai sake plum wine tends to go bad at home. It must be more difficult to make apple wine with such a low sweetness.
I'll second the modest taste: ❣️
Thanks for the treat 😋.

Fresh, crisp, cool and refreshing.
It was my first time to try it, but it was delicious.
I enjoyed the activated nigori sake from Suwa Gokura and Yokobue very much last year 🍶.
I'm glad I was able to buy a four-pack because I was only able to buy a 300ml bottle when I came here in August before 😄.
The aroma is definitely yogurt!
Slightly carbonated and pleasant on the tongue, with a gurgling sensation of ori.
The fresh taste on the tongue with a rich umami and a crisp dry aftertaste makes it worth repeating. ✨️
I was able to enjoy the wine at the Suwa brewery in Suwa.
I was so excited to see this product.
I was so happy to see this place.
I was so happy to see the beautiful scenery.
I am very happy to have been able to visit this place!
