We move on to the second restaurant.
The restaurant is packed. There were two groups waiting in line.
There was "Yamori" in the sake lineup.
I had never seen it before! I had never seen it before.
We had to wait in line.
It was a while before we were served. We ordered as soon as we sat down.
It's delicious!
Fresh and fruity.
It tastes like apples.
The label has a lucky gecko.
It was a very happy cup!

This sake is a blend of the "Arahashiri" (the beginning of pressing) and "Yamasame" (the end of pressing) portions.
The taste is slightly acidic with a touch of bitterness. On the other hand, it is fruity and umami, with a hint of sweetness.
This is delicious. It was an interesting approach to sake.
I drink it when it is there.
The flavor and sweetness around the middle part of the bottle is a little sluggish.
The aroma is fresh and lively, but the taste is mild and extends to the back of the mouth.
My first sake from Tokyo.
It is a blend of Arabashiri and Blame. It's sweet, but has a good flavor of rice, and finishes with a slight bitterness. I like it!
First! The "shop keeper" 🦎.
We have a lot of spiders in our house, maybe that's why Mr. Yamo 🦎 is shuffling around more frequently.
I haven't seen any yet this year, but I think it's about time🙄.
They have cute eyes and are quite cute ❤.
The 🍶 housekeeper is 🍶.
The bottle opens to a pleasant popping sound!
Tropical aroma like fresh juicy melon 🍈 😤.
Gentle on the palate, but a bit mellow.
The mouthfeel is gentle, but a bit mellow.
The sweetness and umami are quite strong.
The aftertaste is bitter with a refreshing sourness.
With a picture of my Yamo 🦎😆✨️
Good evening, Minosuke 😃.
Congratulations on your first Yamori with 🦎㊗️ 🎉 even my daughter who hates bugs said the gecko was cute 🤗.
Nice to have a table where you can drink more alcohol 👍Taradaki sprouts tempura is good 😋.
Jay & Nobby. Good morning 😊
🦎 can be a bit of a surprise when they are there all of a sudden, but they are adorable 😁✨.
Jay & Nobby, you're awesome! You figured out it was a cod sprout 😆👍️
This is the first time since last July that I have been to Yamori.
I was looking forward to this year's event.
I quickly opened the bottle. As usual, it started with a "jouwer" and then a "ponk".
First, the aroma. Hmmm...the aroma is not as strong as I expected. Well, it's Junmai, so it's not that bad. I put it in my mouth thinking, "Well, it's Junmai, so it's not like this. First of all, I was surprised to find a freshness that I had never experienced before. Then, there was a big change in taste.
The taste is different from the rich, sweet and juicy taste of the past, with the sweetness being suppressed and the acidity standing out. From the middle to the latter half of the bottle, the bitterness comes in and disappears.
This is quite a shock to those who have been drinking it up until now.
Simply put, it has adapted to the trend. Personally, I prefer it as it was before. However, it gives the impression of being very hard just after opening the bottle, so I would like to enjoy it slowly.
