Purchased at my usual liquor store.
I have a suspicion that he likes Oubai recently, so I bought it to confirm it.
The aroma is quite strong and fruity, like apples.
When I drank it after a drinking session, it seemed light, but if you drink it normally, it is juicy.
Is it typical of Oubai? It has a sweet taste.
I guess the sake is suitable for my tastes.

Macho series 💪.
I'll catch up with you 😆.
This time, Omachi and Aizan fijon 🍶.
As described...Oumachi's punch and Aizan's umami...a fusion of the best of both worlds 😍.
It has such a juicy taste, but it pulls away so quickly that you don't get tired and before you know it, it's gone 🤣...what a problem 🤣.
I was wondering if it has been a week or so since it was opened....
What a way to expand the umami 😳.
And no alcohol gain at all...too good ✨
Oubai macho OMACHI 80%, 3,520 yen
My wife is going to her relative's house today, so I went to play golf ✨I enjoyed the great weather, not too hot, not too cold, not too windy 😊.
Well, tonight's snacks were lamb chops and its oil-soaked roasted eggplant 🍆, Yanaka ginger and salmon sashimi🍣 I prepared what I wanted to eat since I was leaving early😊.
When I opened the bottle, it popped ✨🍾✴︎ and popped ‼️ lid to the ceiling ‼️ great job macho👏!
The first attack is delicious delicious sweet 😋 and shwashy 🤤It's labeled as spicy but it's not spicy, it's sweet delicious piri 😋.
This is a very wild sake with a 90% rice polishing ratio and no yeast added. It is a highly perfected sake with a taste called "miscellaneous flavors" that makes it delicious.
With its unique, rich flavor and crisp acidity, even those who are not so accustomed to drinking sake will enjoy it. It is an excellent match for dishes with strong flavors!
Today we have the Macho 💪 series from our favorite sake brewery, Makino Sake Brewery.
I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of "you're buying too much ⁉️" but this year I'm going for it lol 🤣!
And that brings us to today's Yamada Nishiki 🌾.
Yamada-Nishiki is the standard of all sake rice ❗️The standard ‼️
What can we talk about ⁉️ without brewing this rice 🤔
I'm curious to see what kind of flavor the gory macho💪 has created with this standard rice 😁.
I used less than 200 words just for the preface lol.
So I'll report quickly 🤣.
When I opened the bottle...it was almost as rough as edible rice with 80% milling ratio. The aroma is not that strong 🤔When I pour it into the glass, the fresh fruity aroma is a bit unique ❓Is this the aroma of macho💪 lol😆😆.
I took a sip...... "This is it!
I thought it was a fire-entry 🔥 the moment I took a sip.... I think....it's a juiciness....
While the juiciness and umami are in a nice balance, there is also a bit of bitterness and a little bit of miscellaneous taste due to the low milled rice 🤔.
However, this bitterness is not unpleasant and easy to drink. ❗️
I guess it's because the rice milling ratio is close to that of edible rice, so it tastes more like the rice we usually eat 👍
I think I might like Gorilla🦍>Tokujun>Yamada Nishiki lol
Purchased at usual liquor store.
I had high expectations since I enjoyed the Shakamacho I drank before!
The aroma is very fruity with a strong sourness, just like the last time!
The carbonation is quite strong.
After taking it into the mouth, the mellow aroma passed through my nose, and I could taste a strong white wine-like flavor.
I am not a fan of wine in general, but this wine is easy to drink, almost like a sparkling wine.
The aftertaste is juicy, and the richness of the wine is like the white wine I used to drink at Okura's Genryu!
Ohbai's macho, he seems to like it.

This is a great taste 😋. Collaboration of Aiyama's guts and Yamadanishiki. It tastes so good that I have to keep rubbing the bottle. It is suitable for me as a sake alone or as a food sake.
Tangy melon flavor with a banana aftertaste.

It's been a long time since I've had this macho 💪 It has a refined mouthfeel that you would not expect from a 90% polished rice ratio, a sweet aroma of rice, and a rich, sweet flavor of rice 😋 It's really delicious 😋...I'm enjoying it with sashimi as a snack 😋 I'll be back for more.
Hello brother, I like the composition of macho looking more enthusiastic in front of the sashimi in the first picture 😁 I have never had macho drink yet and would like to have it once... Sashimi and 😆.
Hello 😃This is my 3rd time to drink Macho 😃Omachi is also the most delicious 😋I didn't expect much at first because of the jokey label and high rice polishing ratio...but...the rich rice flavor, the smooth taste...I recommend it!
