Although it is labeled "Yamahai", it is a medium-bodied sake with a light flavor and moderate acidity.
It is a medium-bodied sake with moderate acidity and a light flavor.
I would have liked to taste something a little more robust, but this was the original sake.
Not too high in alcohol content, not too sweet, and light...
I felt grateful, but also a little disappointed...
Side note: It has been 20 years since Derek Bailey passed away.
I'll be soaking up his sound for a long time after drinking this...
The weather is getting colder in earnest.
I changed my plans on short notice and made pork miso soup.
I heated up some Kouzutsuru Smooth.
It was so warming!
Eldest daughter's business trip souvenir.
SMOOTH
I got the impression that it was full of alcohol. But when I bit into a sardine, it was just right.
I bit into a sardine, and it was just right.
Personally, it was not SMOOTH.
RICH
It is based on SMOOTH, but with a softer taste.
It has a slight sweetness. Slightly sweet.
Yamahai Junmai
The smoothest taste, but the basic taste is
SMOOTH.
It is a sake that has been loved by the locals for a long time, and has never fallen out of fashion.
There is a slight yellowish taste, but it is not that pronounced, and then it fades away gently and quietly.
It has no distinctive characteristics.
It is tasty, but there is nothing special about it, and it has no presence.
I wonder if it would be better if it were heated up.
This is a check-in of the first time I had Kozutsuru 3 years ago 😅I bought a mini bottle as a souvenir. I don't remember much of the taste 💦 but I do remember that it was refreshing and easy to drink.
Label: 🏷️
Difficulty: low😍.
It was easy to peel off after soaking in hot water
Where to buy 🍶:unknown
I bought this 270ml bottle at Aeon today.
I opened the bottle immediately. I couldn't smell the aroma because my nose was stuffed up, but I couldn't taste it. I thought it was too strong, but when I warmed it up to lukewarm, it tasted sweeter. It has a strong taste. It tastes good lukewarm.
Limited edition sake for the 300th anniversary of the company's founding.
Good - good acidity is delicious! A low-polishing sake with a deep, dark flavor. If you ask me if the sake was good in the old days, I would say that it was not, and even though they call it a traditional sake, I can't say for sure since they probably adopted modern facilities and production methods to some extent.
But that's all the more reason to say that the sake is alive and well with the use of the traditional yeast yeast! The flavor is as if the yeast is alive. The slight yogurtiness is good! And it has a slight astringency, a full-bodied and pungent acidity, a complex and very good taste.
I think it has been a year of love for Kouzutsuru rather than love for Hyogo sake!
The fact that it is a Yamahai sake makes me more wary 👀, but this was not the case at all, and the dry mouthfeel quickly gave way to a fruity feeling, making it a very easy-drinking sake 🍶.
Hyogo Prefecture, 3rd bottle of sake tour
The mouthfeel is fruity like a junmai ginjo, but the aftertaste is surprisingly light.
It is recommended as a food sake.
