Purchased from the brewery web store. It came with a stopper with a hole in it. They said they would replace the stopper after arrival. They were afraid to do so...but they succeeded. It was put in the refrigerator.
According to the explanation on the website, there are two kinds of sake: the supernatant and the nigori, so I tasted the supernatant first. It is easy to drink, refreshing, and has a nice sharpness, and it goes down your throat easily. It was delicious. Next, we had the nigori. It is also delicious with a full-bodied and umami flavor.
Both were delicious. You can never go wrong with Okutanba.

Good evening 🎶.
I popped in after reading haniwa56's feedback. I also have a regular Aizan and would like to compare the drinks: ❤️

Ane-san Good evening. Regular Aizan is also attractive, isn't it? This time I bought that one with it since it's the last one to be brewed with Isehikari 😃✨.

It is quite dry. The rice flavor and almond aroma are in a dryness that makes you feel like you're in a hurricane.
(2024.12.15 note) The taste has become a little rounder. It has the aroma of cedar, sweetened condensed milk, and almonds. The dryness remains the same.

Okutanba, 21 years old,,,, raw sake?
No way, 3 year old nama sake!
From the taste, I thought it might be a sake made from the original sake, but I was curious to know what kind of sake this original sake was!
It still retains the appearance of nama-shu, but now, what kind of sake is it?
Now I would like to try the sake of the appropriate year!

Sake rice developed to be grown in northern Hyogo Prefecture
Parentage is Yamada-Nishiki, but the characteristics are an early maturing variety instead of Gohyakumangoku.
The variety name was written in Roman characters for the first time in Japan with the aim of exporting.
Yamana Sake Brewery's Hyogo Sake 85 is available in sparkling, kijoshu and sherry cask in addition to the regular version.
It is aged in oak barrels and has a pale yellowish color.
The aroma is sweet apple, still close to sake, but it has a concentrated sweetness like raisins and a slightly smoky woody flavor.
The slightly smoky woodiness definitely shows the influence of the sherry casks.
The taste has a stronger dried fruit and oakiness, and is more reminiscent of a sherry cask whiskey with water than sake.
The sweetness and umami that is typical of sake starts to emerge from the mid-part, and the tannin astringency finishes the taste.
Overall, the sake is not very sake-like, but the balance of barrel aging is superb, making it a very drinkable and tasty sake.

Hyogo Sake 85 100% used. The Naomahan is brewed sharply as usual.
It has been a long time since Okutanba (as a brand name) has been brewed.
I have a bad habit of imagining sweet and sour when I hear the name of a sake that is "shwashuwa" and "nigori" (nigori). Of course, it is not sweet, and moreover, I have never encountered sweetness in sake brewed with this rice.
It is not extremely hot, but the sweetness has been put somewhere else, and the sourness has been put somewhere else, too. It is a spicy sake after all!
There is no bitterness characteristic of nigori, and it is very rich, with a sweetness-like flavor that accompanies the richness. It is easy to drink, and it is easier to drink than expected.
It took me a long time to open the bottle because it was so shwashy. The fireworks on the label say it very well.

Purchased at Nishinomiya Hankyu Department Store
It is a small brewery in Nishinomiya prefecture. The label is a nice nostalgic design. It has a strong dry taste, so I wonder if it would be good as a summer sake.
I would like to try it heated when it gets cooler.

The one that was kept for about half a month at Icoma Sake Shop.
It doesn't say it, but according to the official website, it's Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake.
Shuwashu and dry. It is not very sweet, but you can really taste the flavor of rice. The acidity is quite strong.
I wonder if it should be drunk like champagne.
I think it is the best toast.

This month's hanpukai
Okutanba Mokufuda no Mukotsu Nakadori (bag-hanging?) Limited Sake
The aroma is gorgeous and has a strong apple flavor.
The acidity is low and sweet, probably due to the use of Ogawa yeast.
The taste is sweet and umami with fullness.
The taste is lighter than expected without being too sweet while keeping the acidity low.
There is a bit of bitterness and complexity from the ingredients, but it is not unpleasant and is a good accent.
It is a very drinkable and tasty sake.

This was also purchased at Ikoma Sake Shop😊.
Okutanba rate is also high these days😅
It was very hard to open it because it spewed so much 💦.
I'd love to see this sake compete with Nemuchi, a professional bottle opener 😏.
It doesn't say, but according to the official website, it's junmai ginjo sake!
You can fully enjoy the sweetness and umami of the concentrated rice with the shwashiness.
Dry but moderately sweet.
This brewery also seems to be one that mainly uses Ogawa yeast 🤔I saw on instagram that Chikara from Kiri-Tsukuba visited the brewery!

The Kijoshu was so good that I bought this one at Ikoma Sake Shop. It is not very sweet, but I can taste the flavor of sherry. I've never had sherry before though 🙄 It tastes like oriental liquor.
I wonder what I should marry this with🤔.
It's easier to drink than oak barrels, but it has a little bit of a habit.
