It is a gift for me! I don't often buy brewed sake because I'm not a fan of it, but since I'm here, I want to enjoy it!
When I drank it at room temperature, I thought, "Wow! It still has a strong brewer's sake-like taste. But when I drink it cold, it's a wonder!
But when I drank it cold, I was surprised! It is smooth and sweet. It's delicious! The moisiness has been softened and the sake has a rich aroma.
I dare say I'll enjoy it hot.
The label and name are super cool! I love it!

Old age?
A nose piercing smell of alcohol
Intense, almost sweltering
Numbing texture on the tongue
Sluggish on the throat
Old rice smell that lingers forever
Hmmm...
Brewed last summer
I guess I didn't store it well in the closet.
I'm sorry.
It is not sake,
This was delicious. ‼️
It is a blend of Kasagi's yuzu juice and "Onnajojo" ginjo sake.
It is so thick and sweet that you would think it was juice, but you don't feel much alcohol.
It has a nice aroma and the bitterness of the yuzu makes it refreshing and easy to drink.
Not bad!
Next up was Onnajojo. As is typical of Aruzoe, it is clear, light, and crisp. As expected, it is too pale when drunk from the flat sake cup on the right side of the third photo.
After that, I drank some Isobeki and got tipsy in the morning and tried to drink rokuroku for the first time in my life (4th photo). It was a rare experience 😅.
I got this one from the same Iwamura sake brewery. This one is refreshing and easy to drink! It feels like it goes down your throat without a hint of discomfort.
Degree of preference ★★★★☆
We had it at a sake brewery in Iwamura. It was delicious to have it freshly made onsite. They also served dried taro with sake lees as an accompaniment.
Degree of liking ★★★☆☆☆☆☆
Limited brewed sake using rare Kame-no-o variety.
Purchased at a local supermarket.
The color is slightly brown.
The aroma is softly sweet, and the mouthfeel
It has a light sweetness and umami flavor.
The aftertaste is refreshing.
I bought this sake for drinking at home at Iwamura Brewery during the National Yamashiro Summit in Ena and the Iwamura Castle Thanksgiving Festival, which I posted about the other day. It is a limited edition sake, and I am weak against limited editions.
It has a dry and sharp taste with 19% alcohol by volume, which is different from the usual "Mejojo" sake.
