It was pretty fruity and easy to drink 🥰.
I'd like to try the others as all the bottles seem pretty juicy when I checked them out!
I'm going to put on the saikyo yaki gindara that I ordered with it!

Miscellaneous
Sake that is easy to drink with a sense of effervescence. The slightly sweet mouthfeel is pleasant.
Good aroma like muscat.
It has a refreshing sweetness and a sense of umami. It is a bit on the dry side.
There is a little piquancy, and the sourness comes later, which is a nice touch.
At Sake Bar Nami in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture. We were allowed to compare Yokoyama Goju which is not on the menu.
Thank you, Master 😭

1) Aizan Junmai Daiginjo
Gorgeous aroma and fruity.
Mellow, fresh and beautiful.
Yamadanishiki Junmai Daiginjo
The juicy aroma and sweetness spreads on the palate and finishes with a sharp taste that you will never get tired of drinking.
(3) Akaban Omachi Junmai Daiginjo
Fresh and juicy flavor, as if you have bitten into a fresh fruit.
I personally like (3) the best.
I found out that a liquor store near my office carries it and I'm a heavy drinker 😊.
I got a bottle of Yokoyama SILVER 1814 Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake. I looked at it more closely and it was the first time I had ever had a nama-zake version of 1814 🎵.
The nose has a sweet aroma reminiscent of muscat with a very gorgeous fragrance.
In the mouth, the fruity, delicious sweetness fills the mouth, and the slight effervescence that is typical of new sake finishes off nicely.
It is delicious!
The slight bubbles and refreshing sweetness with a deep sweetness make it one of my favorites in terms of both aroma and taste.
The SILVER series from Yokoyama is really delicious👍👍!
A very well-balanced and high quality sake with a fruity taste and sweetness of rice 🍶.
I have the impression that Junmai Daiginjos often have a good aroma but are too clean and lack the taste of rice, but this was not the case at all!
My personal No.1 sake of 2024 ♫
It is fruity, very easy to drink and delicious.
As the description says, it has a good balance of sweetness, umami, sourness, and bitterness, and you can enjoy the gaseous taste, but I think it is a little bitter.
