It has a green apple aroma, a smooth mouthfeel with a pear-like sweetness, and plenty of mellow flavor. When the orikomi mixes with it, the aroma of koji (malted rice) and a touch of rummy flavor add to the complexity of the taste. The complexity of the flavor increases.
My impression before was that it tasted dry, but when I tasted it again, it tasted mellow with a strong umami. 😅
At Ito Sake Shop, Yakuendai, Narashino. 🐈️🐈️
Hi Lara's Sake 😃
Mr. Naraman! It's delicious 😋.
And Yakuendai! I miss this place because some of the guys stayed there when I was a student 😌 over 35 years ago 😅I bet it's changed!
Hello, Jay & Nobby! I don't see much Naraman in Chiba, but Ito Sake Shop keeps a bottle and I rush out to Yakuendai when I want to drink it. I'm glad to hear that Jay has a connection to this area 😋. 😌.
Fruity aroma in its own way.
It is refreshing and full-bodied, easy to drink, but quite spicy.
It seems to refresh sweet and spicy Japanese food by drinking it.
I couldn't decide between Morishima and Nara-Man, but it was hot and I wanted something fruity.
I went with Sekisaba mackerel, fresh bonito, and amaebi (sweet shrimp).
I knew it had to be heated up!
So we had it lukewarm, even though it was hot.
It's delicious with the taste of rice.
It's delicious with the taste of rice!
Next time, I will try it warmed up or even hot.
