You can smell the smell of the yeast yeast yeast. When you drink it, the taste is completely different from your imagination.
Is it different from kijoshu? It is an interesting sake with an interesting sweetness that spreads as you drink it and let it come into contact with the air.

Opening the bottle
Sweet aroma of cool rice.
There is also an impression of ramune.
Sip it
Unlike the image of the aroma
No sweetness at all, but a hard bitterness spreads in the mouth
Continue drinking
The mouth feel is light and watery.
It goes down smoothly without any alcohol taste.
Dry but with a lingering umami taste on the tongue.
Good balance of bitterness and umami
Drink it with dinner and Nukatsugi.
The dry taste refreshes the sweet and spicy taste of miso
and the umami of the rice can be felt even more.
It goes very well with strong flavored meals.
Delicious!
Serve with Japanese food
This is a limited edition junmai sake that has been selected from storage tanks that have been allowed to mature over a summer in a sake tasting called "nemikiri (drinking through)" to preserve its flavor in the bottle. The brewery's message is that they want their sake to be enjoyed with the flavors of autumn and winter.
It is a seasonal sake brewed by Miyai-Sakura.
In preparation for the upcoming season, I bought a copy of Nonbei Yokocho, which I also saw at Sake no Wa ✨.
We also bought a cup of sake at a nearby liquor store to check the operation and had it hot ✨.
Sipped at room temperature, it is a refreshingly spicy sake with a deliciously mellow flavor.
Warmed to lukewarm, it has a tingling sensation on the tongue.
Hot-warming lightens the taste and makes it refreshing to drink!
I have had hot sake before, but I was indifferent to the brand and taste and drank it with the mindset that the alcohol would not linger the next day, so I would like to taste it this year 🥰.
Good evening to you too, ichiro18!
I'm sure you're having a lot of fun expanding your drinking horizons 🎵.
I had another one a while ago, but I should have warmed it up to lukewarm 😋.
Thank you too, ma-ki-😊I'm still excited about heated sake as it's almost uncharted territory 😍You drank a panda junmai sake with a bamboo branch on it! I'm sure the junmai lukewarm sake will be delicious too♪
Good evening, ichiro18 😃.
I bought one myself after learning about it on Sake no Wawa ❗️ I can compare heated and cold sake at home without hesitation, so it's a new fun addition to my sake activities 😁.
I look forward to seeing your heated sake posts 😆.
Good morning, Hiro 😃
I see that you also purchased it, Hiro! Then I was right to buy it too 🥰I will have more choices and I will try many things 😊Thank you 😊.
Good evening, ichiro18 😃.
Oh! You got the Nobee Yokocho ‼️
We use it too and enjoy the heated sake 🍶world 🤗When it gets too light 🍶 it floats when it gets low 😅Be careful 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I see that it is light and floats! I'm trying to figure out what to do with the chirori and the tokkuri 😁 I guess the weight is important too 😉.
