Pale yellow with transparency
First impression of the aroma is rice soaked in alcohol-soaked citrus
Grapefruit, faintly black tea, punchy alcohol, somehow very spicy
The first impression on the palate is punchy and complex, but not clingy and clean.
Light sweetness, sharp acidity, and a good amount of bitterness at the end.
The balance between the complex and rich umami of Omachi and the sharpness of the finish, I would like to taste more of the lingering aftertaste, but it seems to pass by quickly.
Personally, I think it's too sharp for Sanjoraku, but I like it a lot.
I think it would go well with Italian food or something like that because of the citrusy flavors and spicy punch.
I think it would go well with Italian food, for example, when you want something different and punchy with oil-based pasta.
Delicious!

I got a bottle of Toyama Prefecture's Sanshoraku today 😀.
It's Yamahai, so I heated it lukewarm 😋.
It has a muscat flavor on the palate 😚 soft rice 🌾 and a full sweetness 😊 with a firm acidity and a good sharpness👍.
It was a useful bottle for the cold season 🥳👍
Mountain sake, 19 degrees with a gusto, can be enjoyed from the top clear to hazy and nigorigo. The top clear layer is sweet, but don't be fooled by the sweetness of the top clear layer. It is bitter. The haze is creamy, yet refreshingly spicy. The nigori has the perfect texture of rice grains. It has a strong punch.
A limited edition sake from a liquor store in Toyama.
A light bubbling sound when the bottle is opened.
The mildness of the lees nicely envelopes the matured and bitter flavors. A good sake 🍶.
Yamahai brewing⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It has a subtle ginjo-like aroma.
In the mouth, it has a mild mouthfeel. It has a mild mouthfeel with the unique sourness and bitterness of Yamahai and the umami of rice.

Slightly pale yellow with transparency.
First impression is mellow and powerful
Rice bales in the warehouse, direct alcohol, chestnuts
Strong flavor, weak sweetness.
Bitterness with umami leaves a slight aftertaste
Powerful and lingering.
Closest impression to Junmai Harazake, which I liked but has been discontinued.
It has a strong alcohol taste with umami, so I would like to pair it with spicy food.
I would like to drink it with chicken sprinkled with crazy salt, or perhaps a Big Mac with pepper. (I like Big Mac).
