Nori
This is Okunoto, made by Kazuma Shuzo, a famous sake brewery in Takeha. I bought this unfiltered unpasteurized sake because I like the regular one.
You can see the bubbles from the moment you pour it.
The color is a transparent yellow. It smells like yogurt. I had high expectations.
It's like drinking a refreshing yogurt. The sourness and moderate sweetness are pleasant. It's also carbonated, so it's very refreshing. It really is like drinking a yogurt fruit juice.
It is 17 degrees, but you don't feel the alcohol. It is still delicious.
It's fresher and has a stronger yogurt taste than the regular one, but the price is more than 400 yen different, so it might be less expensive.
After a week in the bottle, the carbonation is gone, but it's still delicious. It's a good drink to take home as a souvenir.
