It has been a long time since the last Yamahai. The taste of rice, including the miscellaneous flavors, is very strong. I think this is the first time I have had sake from Saga. It was delicious!
It has a nice spiciness and a clear, transparent taste that is typical of Saga, and I would like to call it a "refreshingly umami" flavor.
There are wines that are a little more refreshing and a little more umami, but this balance may not be possible.
It is an excellent food wine that can accompany any dish without losing or winning.
The meaning of the panda on the jacket is unknown.
Kotobukinmoku Kimoto Junmai Sake
It was a wonderful sake.
I wonder if this social networking site is ego-surfing for sake brewers? I hope that sake brewers all over Japan will continue to make great sake for a long time to come.
Your first time at the Bamboo Garden.
Very clear, with an impressive pear-like fresh acidity.
Both the aroma and taste are mild, so if you are not used to sake, I recommend it and think it is quite easy to drink.
Purchased at a liquor store in Moji-ku
About half a year had passed from the time of purchase to the time of opening the bottle.
(Immediately after opening the bottle)
Drink it cold.
Almost colorless and transparent, though it seems to be slightly tinted.
Mellow aroma
The palate is robust and full with acidity.
A tingling dryness appears after a short time, which gradually intensifies and becomes more pronounced.
A slight dryness lingers in the mouth in the aftertaste.
Warmed to lukewarm
Tangy smell of alcohol
The taste becomes lighter and drier.
Heat sake to hot
The dryness weakens and the taste becomes lighter, but there is a slight sweetness.
When cooled, it returns to a flavor similar to that of chilled sake.
Goes well with cheese when heated.
★★★★
It was quite dry and easy to drink. The smell is fruity. But a little astringent, or maybe the fruit is a little green?
It has a clean aftertaste, so I drink too much.

Slightly amber in color, with the umami and astringency of rice🌾.
Even though it is a dry strain, the umami flavor spreads well 👄 in the taste.
Seems to go well with food 🤗.
