It was very fruity and easy to drink.
The label reads, "A confident work of the master brewer's passion.
Enjoy its fruity aroma, smooth texture, and delicate, clear rice flavor. It is also perfect as an aperitif.
The label is true: ⭐️⭐️⭐️★
YOKOBUE - Junmai-brewed Ume-shu (plum wine) 720ml
Ingredients: Sake, plums, glacial sugar
Alcohol content 11%.
This was purchased at the brewery's store in November. This plum wine was the best among all the ones we tasted 😀.
After the 3rd day of Honkin, I drank straight Umeshu (plum wine). 11 degrees, but I got drunk very fast.
Sometimes plum wine is good... â

The third photo shows the stickers given to you by the breweries on the sticker paper.
The fourth brewery, Yokobue.
There are 5 kinds of tasting. The staff who were accustomed to serving us were very helpful. Nigori sake was recommended by ❗️ and was a compulsory tasting 😆.
My impression of the sake was Yokobue Shirakaba Nishiki.
This is my first time to taste Shirakaba Nishiki sake rice. Excited to see what it tastes like ☺️
The aroma is subdued. On the palate, it has a sweetness similar to green apple🍏 with a slight acidity. There is a lingering sweetness.
Overall, the impression is modest and mature. Seems to go well with a variety of foods...but there was no food at the tasting so I couldn't try it 😭

The aroma has a strong, robust nose with a hint of rough-running, raw sake. It is sharp, light, and dry. Straightforward and delicious. It is slightly cloudy and has a mild umami taste. It is also very nice.

I drank this sake at a get-together after attending a technical committee meeting of the association to which my employer belongs on Wednesday, January 24 last week.
It was the only sake in the all-you-can-drink menu.
It was the first brand I had ever heard of!
It was served cold from start to finish!
It smelled like almonds when poured into the glass cup!
When I sipped it, there was almost no alcohol smell, which is typical of aluzoe, and even though it was cold sake, it did not have a harsh smell or tingling sensation on the nose!
The taste is different, but it has a good balance of sweetness, spiciness, mellowness, bitterness, etc. like Niigata's Tsuru no Tomo 😍.
Don't underestimate the sake made with alcohol!
Nanchatte...
I drank 4 gou of sake by myself 😘.
I had a beer as a chaser 🤣.
Yum!
Good morning, kozo 😀
How strong is your drinking ability with 4 gou of beer as a chaser 😅.
I'm afraid to drink all the sake I can, but this sake seems to have been ok 😀.
Hello, kozo 😃!
Yokobue🪈! Last year on my trip to Shinshu to buy sake 😅Yokobue, you bought me a stylish label 😅Yokobue, but this one is in kanji 🤗It's more like a vertical flute 😆.

Good morning......I like beer too, and in the beginning I used to use it as a chaser to cleanse my palate, but then I realized it was too much and changed to cold water 🤣I try to alternate with water, not just sake, because too much can make you drunk 🤣.

Good morning... I had never heard of Yokobue, so I searched to see if anyone was drinking it and saw J&N's post 😍Labels are important... because with people, first impressions are hard to overturn...
A dry sake lover said, "It's the best one I've ever tasted!" and a souvenir 🍶 limited to 2,000 bottles from the storehouse!
Attacks not as dry as expected! Fruity? A little oaky? Is it because it is unfiltered raw sake?
The aroma is also rather fruity!
