I bought it at a relatively nearby liquor store (25 minutes by bike?). I bought
Sensation Black
Old-style Nama-moto, winter-only ogara-mi
I drank Sensation BLACK before, but I thought it was delicious.
When you open the bottle, you can feel a little bit of a shwash, shup, shup, shup!
A little cloudy white
Fresh, a little fruity and sour,
A little bit of yogurt?
A little bit of citrus?
It's a bit different from when I drank Sensation Black before? (I don't remember exactly 😅).
Last time I drank it, the label had a Noh mask on it 😆.
On the back label, it says "reborn as Nama-moto brewing" or "first pressing limited ogara-mi".
or "first pressing limited ogara-mi" on the back label.
I wonder if it's not the same?
But it's delicious.
It's normally 15% alcohol, but it feels very light.
It's a dangerous one that goes down smoothly 🤣.
Hi Takashi 🐦.
I'm drinking the white orikara now and it still tastes different than before. After reading your review, I am relieved that it was not my imagination 😊.
Hi Pon 😊
Somehow I think I shifted a bit from yogurtiness to freshness 🤔.
Which is fine because it's delicious 😋.
But don't trust me if I say so myself 🤣.
I haven't been well since September and haven't had much to drink.
It's been a long time since I've had an emishky.
The aroma is juicy green apple, which is very rare for the four seasons.
The mouthfeel is mellow and full of flavor. The sweetness is like a cross between apple and grape, with a full-bodied flavor at the end. I served it cold, but I think it is also good at room temperature.
Looking at last year's production, I would say that junmai-shu is better if you want the nama-moto style, and kijo-shu is better if you want the full-bodied, mellow, umami taste of the previous year. I prefer the latter, although the price has gone up quite a bit.

No rating because I bought an old raw sake.
The aroma is similar to that of aged sake, with a complex sweet taste.
I wonder if this is an effect of the old style of nama-moto or of the old nama-shu....
First time at Laughing Four Seasons.
It was fresher and lighter than I expected.
I taste grape, muscat flavor.
SENSATIONAL taste. Laugh, laugh. LOL! LOL?
It is 50% polished, but labeled Junmai. It is priced in the 1500 yen range including tax and should be popular.
Early winter only. Unlike the black, it has a gentle sweetness. The body is not strong, but rather fluffy. The price of 1,540 yen including tax for a Junmai Daiginjo with 50% polished rice is excellent 👍Hashimoto-san.
Laughing Four Seasons when in doubt.
Sweet aroma with a slightly pungent taste.
The richness of the umami flavor, zingy but refreshing in the aftertaste.
