I was a little hesitant because of the high alcohol content, but I ordered it.
It is quite dry. It has a tangy and pungent taste, followed immediately by a bitter taste.
Even so, it is a very refreshing sake, as is typical of Niigata sake.
It is a sake that is both modern and classical. It may be tough for beginners.
Oni Yamama is the premium sake of Yamama. Among the three varieties of red, blue, and yellow, this yellow one is the rarest. From its tough appearance and 17 degrees, one would expect it to be quite dry, but it is surprisingly fruity. However, it was surprisingly fruity and had no sweetness at all. In that sense, it is dry. A perverse new category of fruity dry.

Knowledge
Oniyama has two varieties: Akaoni (red oni) and Aoni (blue oni), which are completely different in flavor, taste, and concept from the traditional Oniyama due to differences in the raw material rice and yeast, and whether or not they are azed. It is unfiltered, unpasteurized sake made with 70% polished rice, mainly from "Gohyakumangoku," rice suitable for sake brewing harvested in the local terraced rice paddies, and filled directly from the kameguchi (the mouth of the sake barrel) at the time of top-filling. It is characterized by the youthful aroma of the yeast used only for Aka-ONI, and the palate is filled with a rich umami flavor, which is followed by a refreshing spiciness. The individuality and assertiveness of this Akaoni is a unique taste. It is super dry, with a sake strength of up to +9.5, but from the moment it enters the mouth, the intense flavor unique to unfiltered, unpasteurized sake fills the mouth, and the slightly carbonated, shwashy taste greatly stimulates the tongue and throat. The thick, rich, mellow, rich flavor with a strong impact, reminiscent of the Yamama series, is a stimulating taste that lives up to the Oni name.
This is no longer a liquor label!
His face is not even on the level of alcohol!
He is so angry.
Why are you so angry?
Onyanma, I wondered what on earth was going on.
It took me a while to realize that they were brothers with Yanmar from that delicious series, Yanbo Maa Bo Maa Bo.
Contrary to the impression of their strong faces, their taste is gentle.
I expected the dog to be more than 40% in degree.
The dog finished the bottle in three days, growling and moaning.
Yanmar is the best!
Woof!
