Lactic acid origin, acidity, and smoky(?) flavor typical of Yamahai. It has a smoky(?) flavor.
The sweetness is moderate and the body is light.
It is a classic but light Yamahai, a type not often seen.
At Sumiyoshi, a famous kishimen stand-up restaurant. It asserts itself without losing the strong miso flavor, and I love the feeling of drinking local sake.

The rice is Yumeginko, a cross between Yamadanishiki and Wakamizu from the Gohyakumangoku lineage.
The aroma is well developed, but not fruity.
The finish is typical of Aichi Prefecture, where the umami of the rice is well conveyed.
Yumeginko has a sharpness, but this time it has a woody aroma or a lingering cloying taste.
It has more umami and roughness than most daiginjos, so it is more of a food wine, and is best with dishes that use miso or sashimi.
Recommended to be served cold.
A wide-bottomed sake bottle is better than a wine glass because of its acidic aroma.
Yesterday, I drank the honjozo version of this sake, but it was junmai sake, so I felt like I was drinking rice. Is it any wonder?
It is easy to drink, with the sweetness of freshly cooked rice and a slight sweetness that is similar to that of highly saccharified candy canes.
It is sweet, but light and easy to drink.
The Honjozo that I drank yesterday was a little heavier and had more umami and sweetness.
It seems to be a sake made by re-cultivating Nihonbaru in Anjo, the place of origin.
It has the freshness of nama-shu, but the flavor of rice is strong. There is a slight alcohol taste.

This new style matured sake is a blend of 2-, 3-, and 4-year-old sake, and is said to be an unfiltered sake, so it has some acidity. The nose is full of matured aromas, with dried fruit, fruit, caramel aromas, and a sense of purpose. The impression of the mouth is strong and pungent, with matured aromas and a sense of purpose appearing one after another, and the alcohol is obvious but not exciting. The tongue experiences sweetness, acidity, freshness and then a short period of bitterness, which is more in line with the idea of "theater of life". Although not outstanding in all aspects, it has everything, and is stable.
When heated to 45°, the yellow wine-like sensation becomes heavier, and the evaporated alcohol makes the stimulation much stronger.
It was a pretty good ministry with a clear feel.
I️ got a little something from the brewery at the brewery open house.
The slight bitterness was pretty good too 😄✨

Good morning ☀☀☀
It's true that you don't often see this kind of sake in sake bars 💦.
I️ was so impressed that they can make such beautiful sake in Anjo City.
