おかゆ
Purchased at a liquor store in Niigata City.
I was worried about the day to open the bottle because it is 17 degrees Celsius.
The taste is as you would expect from Yamama, and it has a great punch. The moment you put it in your mouth, the ripe and condensed sweetness like dried persimmons or dried grapes and the deep bitterness jumped in.
It reminds me of Kirinzan's Potari-Potari. Enjoy it on a day when you want to sip it in small sips!

Soft and sweet on the palate.
The moderate carbonation made it very easy to drink and delicious.

I was curious about this bottle after seeing it at Sake-no-Wa.
Sake rice brand unknown, rice polishing ratio 60%.
It has a clear and light mouthfeel. The malted rice seems to have mellowed it. Delicious.

The last dish of the day was the thin rolls (Tekka and Kappa) that I had made a little earlier.
Let's keep the other two for the sake!
Yamama is consistently delicious!
And since it is a direct-fermented, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, we could enjoy its fresh taste.

The second drink is Yamama. I haven't had this drink much, but I often see it at Sake-no-Wawa. A search of the past shows that I had only had it once last year. This one has a refreshing taste. The aroma comes slowly and then quickly fades away. It is also good.

It is refreshingly dry when chilled and mellower when warmed. Both are delicious, but we prefer it warmed up!

Today I bought my first ㊗️ Yamama-sama, so I'll start the party in the evening. ‼️ Hurry up Kakugami Gyorui🍣!
When I drank Oroku at the beginning of the year, Mr. Jive told me that squid would go well with it 🤔I'll buy some squid nigiri and compare them with the rest of Oroku and Yamama 😍I came home and hurriedly prepared my usual menu 🥂Kanbai 🎉.
Comparing Yamama and Oroku is fateful✨Both are delicious sakes with an exquisite bitterness characterized by minerality. Yamama has a more subtle sweet aroma and flavor, and the bitterness gives it a nice kick 😋.
The pairing is similar, but with or without the sweetness ✨.
Nice pairing with squid to dispel the mismatch with fish and shellfish when we drank Ohroku the day before yesterday ❤️😍I see, it's a pairing from the Sea of Japan ‼️
Yamama has a wider range of pairings: ajijo, salad, sweet root vegetables, and today's sweet potato with cream cheese goes better than the Ohroku 🥰 I'm so happy!
I think I read an article about a recent boom in bitterness in the sake boom, which continued from dry and light to sweet and fruity. I wonder if it is just a boom of bitterness in my house 🤣🤣.
I'm shinsake3 for the impressions of the sake alone 💕.

Good evening, Pheho😄Today's drinking and pairing compatibility game is ‼️ I've learned quite a bit 📚 how to match dry and sweet dishes. Depending on the food, the taste of the sake will change as well☝️I'm not going to get into the bitterness craze, so I'm still waiting 💦.

Hi Pekho 😃
Congrats on your first mountainous area ㊗️ 🎉!
We like squid too and often have nigiri as a snack 😋 Well, our versatile tongue (or as we often say 🤣) will always come back to "旨い😙" 😅.

Overall 9 (out of 10)
Let me copy Jay & Nobby's "I've Never Drank Series" ❣️
This sake caught my eye at a liquor store I frequent.
I was attracted to it by the advertising of "juicy, umakuchi Yamama, which is not like Niigata sake".
I was attracted by the advertisement "Juicy and delicious, not like Niigata sake" and bought it!
I tried it right away!
It's delicious!
When I think of Niigata sake, I always think of it as
I have an image that it is clear and dry.
but it certainly has a juicy and umami taste.
It is true that it has a juicy and umami taste, but
but the image is added to the spiciness and transparency.
It is a solid impression of Niigata sake 😅.
p.s. I went to Ikebukuro Sake Brewery yesterday, 3/28.
Yesterday, 3/28, I went to a liquor store in Ikebukuro to buy some Oroku, which had impressed me for a long time, but I couldn't find Oroku there, instead there was a sign saying "temporarily closed as of 3/27". 😫😭
I had it chilled.

shinsaku3, good evening😄Yamama, I remember when I went to Niigata, the liquor store recommended it to me: ❣️ I bought Murayu at that time, so I gave up on Yamama 😭Oh Luk👑, I didn't realize that the liquor store is temporarily closed...sad 🥹.

Good evening, shinsaku3!
Yamama, juicy and delicious! It is my favorite brand. I also feel that the base is Niigata sake, so you are right, it may be a bit of an exaggeration to say that it is not like Niigata sake 💧 (laughs).

Good morning shinsaku3😃!
Congratulations to Yamama for your first drink challenge ㊗️ 🎉We also had it for the first time last year, but that one was pretty sweet 😅I think the next one will be Oni Yamama 👹 🤔🤗.

Good evening, hinahana mama 😃.
I just noticed Yamama-san, but it must be a pretty major sake if a local liquor store recommends it to you 😃.
Sorry to hear about Oroku.... 😢.
I'll have to find another dealer 👀.

Good evening FSB 😃.
Thank you 😊
I agree 😃.
It is indeed juicy, but the foundation feels like a delicious Niigata sake 😋.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It was a delicious sake and I was browsing the brewery's website and it caught my eye, Oni Yamama 👹.
And there are red, blue and yellow 😮.
I'm curious - I'd like to try them all 😅.

When I visited a famous liquor store, I happened to see the brand introduced in a video and bought it without a second thought. I was in Joetsu, Niigata, and the name is Yamama.
But that aside, here we go! It has a very pleasant aroma, almost rose-like in its gorgeousness. After the smooth and unctuous brewing water, the sake has a refreshing acidity, which is typical of unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, and a lot of umami, making it a calm sake. The end result is an easy-drinking sake with a sharpness that is typical of Echigo-Tsumari. My mother, who drank it with me, also highly praised Yamama, so please give it a try. Thank you again for your hospitality this evening!

This nigorizake is made by pumping out the fermenting unrefined sake and bottling it immediately after rough straining.
It has a rich, creamy flavor with a freshness that makes an impact.
