Yuki no Bijin" is made with Misato Nishiki, and its familiar deliciousness has been increasing its presence in our diverse lineup year by year. The freshness and juiciness of this wine will surprise you. The slight gas that seems to burst out of the glass is "Mmm, this is Yuki no Bijin," but the aroma that comes out of the glass is a little subdued, and the flavor spreads through the mouth in a relaxed manner, as expected.
The freshness of the acidity is almost quintessential. The strong impact of the first sip is interesting, but you can also enjoy the moderate blossoming of umami over a few days after opening the bottle. It is a delicious sake suitable for sipping while eating and drinking, and its true value will be fully appreciated after a few days of drinking.
Akita rice (Misato Nishiki), which is harvested in small quantities!
It is a delicious sake🍶😊.
Junmai🍶.

Traveled from Sakata to Akita and had lunch 🍜 at Inaniwa Udon restaurant "Mugendou".
Strong acidity 😳, sour. Sweet and delicious behind the acidity. The sweet pork cartilage soft-boiled gives it spiciness and sharpness.

Mild and gentle aroma for a Junmai Daiginjo.
The taste is red apple-like and fresh 🍎.
The unique acidity that passes through the nose refreshingly comes from the No. 6 yeast, I think.
The aftertaste is slightly astringent at the back of the tongue.
Seems to go well with all kinds of food.
Pairing: Kakuni Daikon (Japanese radish stew)
We had a chance to have NEXT5's sake in a row, so we also opened a bottle of Yuki no Bijin's new sake!
This was another bottle with a freshness that was refreshing and crisp, just like a fresh sake!

Slightly fizzy and refreshingly fruity.
It has more acidity and sharpness than Hakutemi, so it seems to go well with fish.
Impressed by the "Yuki no Bijin Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate Nama" that I drank the other day, I tried the "Junmai Shiboritate Nama Sake" this time.
Compared to the more intense Junmai Ginjo, the Junmai Shiboritate Nama Sake was a little less mature, but it was just as refreshing and had the same mild umami flavor that is easy to pair with meals.
Once again, I was reminded that ginjo-shu is a very special sake.
I find myself gradually becoming addicted to the swamp of sake...
