Soft and gentle, like cherry blossoms dancing in the spring breeze.
The aroma is gentle and elegant. The delicate aroma derived from yeast rises softly from the glass, with nuances of white peach and melon. In the mouth, the mild sweetness and clear flavor spread gradually, and the acidity is gentle and very smooth. The elegant lingering aftertaste fades away as if fading away.
This bottle is a re-launch of the "age-engraving" series that began with "28-year-old Spring". Hiroaki Sakemukai, former toji, has returned to sake brewing as a technical advisor, and together with Hiroei Watanabe, the current master brewer, he brewed this special spring sake with the theme of "49 years old," a milestone for the brewery.
The label features the words "49 years old, cherry blossoms" written by the calligrapher Izumi Endo, who has graced the spring series to date. The calligraphy, which has both supple curves and strength, seems to reflect the "quiet determination" of this sake.
The 48% polished Yamada-Nishiki produced in Honzu City, Gifu Prefecture, which is cultivated with low amounts of pesticides, and three types of yeast are used to create a soft but core flavor. It has a refined aroma and a flavor that seeps into the mouth, and quietly conveys the joy of "welcoming another spring".
Panda and fireworks is such a novel bottle!
The freshness of the wine is retained, while at the same time expressing the deliciousness of rice and refreshing acidity.
A delicious sake. It had a strong umami flavor and was supremely delicious.
This is a limited edition sake that the brewer releases every year for his own age group.
Local liquor🍶.
And yet I had never had one.
This is another local one for camping.
I saw it when I went shopping for groceries.
I thought it was a good opportunity and bought it.
It is easy to drink and goes down very smoothly.
Well, I always drink any kind of alcohol
I always drink any kind of alcohol, but...
Bittersweet mouthfeel followed by a slightly sweet rice aroma. The aftertaste is sharp and clean.
It is a refreshing drink that does not linger and goes well with a variety of dishes.
This is the 11th bottle for Father's Day gift. It's before Ras 🍶😅Midai Sakura is my first brand. It is a rich, robust and drinkable sake 🍶😄.
Today I enjoyed it with a lunch box from a famous ryotei restaurant in Kyoto. 🍶😄
The next sake will finally be the last of my Father's Day gifts. It took me almost a year to drink it after all😅🍶.
The fifth drink? The owner asked me what kind of sake I liked, and the first thing that came to my mind was the Masamune instrumental sake.
It has a full aroma of sweetness, and when you put it in your mouth, the full sweetness fills your mouth! It is very tasty, but not too sweet, and the bitterness finishes it off nicely!
I would like to visit Honoka in Musashikoyama again.
