I was also curious about Amefall and was attracted by the name, so I bought it. It is a limited edition of raw sake ver. from a liquor store.
When I opened it, it was sizzling 🫧.
The aroma may be pulled by the name, but it is a refreshing apple? and grapefruit.
When you drink it, it is not at all sweeter than the aroma (which is not that sweet either)! I don't know, there is not much sweetness in it...not that there isn't, but it relies heavily on the aroma, and there is not much sweetness that can be felt directly on the tongue.
The aroma that passes through the nose is not heavy at all, so overall it is light and clear.
It is quite carbonated when opened, but there is also a light bitterness, and the taste itself is firmly dry, as the name suggests.
It has the atmosphere of an unsweetened cider with an aroma, but of course it is not tasteless, and the soft apple sweetness, crisp acidity, and light flavor can be felt.
The finish is crisp, dry, dry, and easy to drink, and the taste is so enjoyable that you can't help but keep going 🍎🍏.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ☀️
When you say "apple" I can only think of apples now 😆.
It's 13 degrees, but you might go as easy as a beer 🍻 anymore 😙 Dry dry apple 🍎🍏 please try it 🙌!
I bought my first bottle of Amezure, which I had not been able to get my hands on because it was the only sake in a price range that was exquisitely difficult for me personally to afford.
The juicy sweetness and apple aroma came in a flash, just as the label said, and when I felt it was a little too sweet ........ Just when I felt it was a little too sweet, it was finished off with an exquisite bitterness.
I'm curious about other sake, so I'll try them next time.
Kikuyu" Amezure Daisen Junmai Sake
Brand name in dispute with a ramen shop over trademark rights
As a pet theory
I prefer an Ooka-judgmental, humane verdict rather than a legally correct one.
Therefore, I would rather support Yoshikawa Brewery, which has been brewing sake at the foot of Mt. Daisen for a long time, than a ramen shop that currently does not brew sake at the foot of Mt.
The ramen shop's "AFURI" was brewed at the Kurosawa Sake Brewery in Shinshu!
If it was brewed at Kurosawa Brewery, it must be a delicious sake!
But, isn't "AFURI" another name (generic name?) for Oyama without any distinction between "Ameuri", "Aburi", and "AFURI" to begin with? Isn't it?
I strongly doubt that a company can claim trademark rights to it.
If the trademark is owned by the Oyama Aburi Shrine or the Amezan Daisenji Temple, then I guess it is.
Besides, from the outside looking in, I think that Yoshikawa Brewery has contributed more to Daisen than the ramen shop, so I would like to support Yoshikawa Brewery.
It's possible that the ramen shop's ambitions are higher than I assumed.
But still, I wonder about the lawsuit (or is it not over yet?). I'm not so sure about this.
I don't know if the ramen shop's "AFURI" is a reason to drink it, even if it is brewed by Kurosawa Brewery in Shinshu, because of its reputation for good taste.
It has a bit of a schwarziness, acidity and umami.
This is the first time I'm drinking sake from the town I'm going to this year.
Once again, I am glad I was born in a country where there are so many delicious breweries and so many good ones!
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol 15 degrees Celsius
Poof! and open the mouth without blowing it just in time.
Pour it in, and it's like champagne.
Slightly green apple flavor. Refreshing acidity.
Surprisingly, it is not too sweet and has a light touch of umami.
I would like to drink it cooled down a little more.
Taste level 3.5/5
Next, it's raining ✨
I know it's called apple acid, but it definitely has a strong acidity 😆 It doesn't seem to have much of an apple feel to it 😓.
It's more dry than sweet ✨.
Seems to go well with meals 😆.
It's so good 😁.
