After drinking Hitogokochi at home and coming to a corner bar
What a fateful encounter with Aizan!
The aroma is gorgeous, just like Aizan!
When you put it in your mouth, the luxurious rice aroma, umami and fruity taste peculiar to Aizan spread with a slight effervescence.
The finish, including the lingering aftertaste, is wonderful!
I have a glass of Yamasan, which I opened a while ago.
The moderate fizziness and milky taste are well balanced.
The sweetness and umami are well balanced, and the finish is clean and spicy. A very well made sake.
First time ㊗️ mountain3🎉
Sweet and bitter, delicious 🩷I'm feeling good about bitter drinks lately 😊.
Today we have tai chikuwa with cream cheese on top, chicken with yuzu kosho flavored with shiso leaves, braised and fried green peppers for chopstick rest, 2 cheese pizza 💖.
The bitterness of Yamasan goes well with the bitterness of vegetables such as shiso leaves and green peppers, and I felt that pairing them together conversely made the vegetables more aromatic! It would certainly be perfect for aromatic vegetables ‼️ It also enhances the aroma of the sesame oil I fried the peppers in 🧐Vegetables and bitterness, I see 👍.
Tonight's pizza at our house is without tomato sauce as requested by my husband 🤭just olive oil, cheese, salt, pepper and maple syrup 🩷It's hard to choose between the acidic alcohol and cheese or the bitter alcohol and cheese 😋I love cheese and they are both delicious 😋.
I'm in charge of shinsake3 for impressions of the alcohol by itself💕.
Good evening, Pheho😄!
Congratulations on your first Yamasan㊗️ I have a different Yamasan waiting in my fridge too😆 I can see how the bitterness would go well with the fussy veggies⁉️ I can understand 😍Maple syrup on pizza is another novelty 🧐I'd like to try it❣️
HinaHanaMama🩷Good evening! It was really easy to drink and tasty, I went on and on 😊I'm looking forward to another Yamasan ‼️ in the fridge 😍what will you pair it with💕I was under the impression that Nagano was sour and dry, so it was very fresh ✨.
Good evening, Pekho 😀
I was able to get this sake on my recent trip to Nagano😇
I haven't opened the bottle yet, but after reading your comment, I think it would go well with the cheese wasabi I bought in Nagano, so I will try it when I drink it 😀.
Yasbay 🌸Good evening 🌸‼️ I see you have a fridge waiting 👍I think cheese wasabi is the best 🙌 looking forward to it 😍I tried a lot of things and I still think that the bitter type is generally better with food than the sour type 🧐.
Hi Pekho 🐦.
Sweet and bitter is delicious 🙏❣️ I just have a hard time deciding what to pair it with💦Cheese is the iron plate! I like both sweet and bitter and cheese, so don't be afraid to try it with Italian and other food... always helpful 😊🙏🙏.
Ponchan 💕 indeed sweet and bitter delicious! Is it a boom? Is it just in my house? I realize that 🤭but I think it's easier to pair with meals than sour ones! I think it would go well with Italian cheese and seafood 😍I'm not sure about sour tomatoes. That's a 🧐 challenge 👍.
Overall 9 (out of 10)
This sake was given to me by a colleague at work 🍶.
It's Hatsuyama San 😃.
According to the online information.
"Soft and fresh aroma with a fruity, grape-like sweetness. It is fruity, but also has a strong sense of rice flavor, making it mellow and deep. It has a clean and crisp aftertaste and is very suitable as a food sake.
According to the brewer, "It is very suitable as a food sake.
It is delicious. ❣️😋
The sweet and delicious taste spreads in the mouth, but is quickly followed by an unctuous bitterness that is crisp and clean.
That's my impression 😋.
It's hard to stop sipping 👍
I had it chilled.

Good evening, shinsaku3!
I was also able to obtain this sake on a recent trip to Nagano, where there are no stores near me and it is difficult to find it 😇.
I'm looking forward to having it now as it's quite highly rated 😀.
Good evening, shinsaku3!
First time! Congratulations to Yamasan🎊㊗️
It's very popular at Sake-no-wa these days, isn't it? I'm curious about it too and have it in the fridge waiting for its turn🤣It's sweet and bitter 🥰I'm even more excited to drink it❣️
Hi Yasubeyesan 😃
I also looked at the website after receiving it and found out that there is only one store in Saitama that carries it, so I realized that it is a very difficult sake to obtain 😅.
It was delicious and I will drink it with care 😃.
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
Thank you 😊
I want to get a stock too, so I'll go buy some 🚗😅.
The brand I got this time was good, the sweet and tasty spread was impressive at the moment I drank it👍.
Hello shinsaku3!
Yamazan-san is getting a blast from the international J&N standards with its ridiculously delicious taste! Congratulations on your first drink ㊗️ 🎉I haven't tasted the Kinmon Nishiki from here 🥲 but I'm sure it's delicious👍.
Congratulations on your first drink, shinsaku3!
Kinmon-nishiki looks delicious 🤔I was looking at ❣️ and thought it might be more to my liking than the Yamae-nishiki I drank 🤔I would like to try it!
Hi Jay & Nobby😃.
Thank you 😊
I see that the international J &N standards are also highly regarded: ❣️
Thanks to my colleague for bringing it to me as it was a totally unmarked liquor!
Mr. Yamasan, you are added to my checklist: ✔️
-Thank you.
It's been a long time since I've had "Yamazan
At "Iyokuya Yoiton" in Mizonokuchi, Mizonokuchi.
This is a gem from a sake brewery that was closed for 15 years and will be back in 2023.
It is easy to drink, and you can feel the pulse of its potential popularity. It is sold mainly through distributors in the prefecture, and it seems to be hard to find, so if you see it, don't hesitate to drink it.
Jay & Nobby.
Thank you for your comment!
It's very tasty and I'm sure I'll be a big fan of it! I think it's going to be very popular! I'm sure it's going to be very popular 😄
Yamazan is one of the most frequently bought Yamazan recently. The first time I opened the bottle, the aroma was subdued and the taste was beautiful but a little underwhelming, but on the second day, the sweetness and umami opened up and were in good balance with the bitterness. At Awaya
Just when you thought the cherry blossoms in Tokyo were in full bloom
But it has been raining and it is cold and flowery.
I can't go out for hanami-sake because of this...
I decided to enjoy Hanami with Hanami (pic4) and Sake with Sake!
So I went to the nearest liquor store.
There it was ✨Yamasan✨!
I'm going to drink it at home right away 😃.
Kinmon-Nishiki 55% polished, 15% alcohol by volume
The sound of opening the bottle is "f" and "ponk ♫".
It is fine with smoke ❗️
The top aroma is muscat and rummy.
First impression on the palate is clean ❗️
Sweetness is there too.
But the freshness with a hint of chili overrides it.
The acidity has a modern flavor, but it's more clear.
but it is much clearer.
There is almost no bitterness or pungency.
It's easy to drink and you'll be drunk before you know it 😅.
It's a dangerous type😅.
In short, Yamazan is delicious 🤣.
☀️
Sake rice is Kinmon Nishiki 🌾.
It is sweet and delicious every time 😚.
The sweetness and umami are thick and dark, and the taste is firm.
I could feel a little bit of alcohol in the aftertaste 🤗.
Hi Hiro, good evening 😀
I hadn't had a chance to drink Yamazan at home yet, but I was able to get this sake on my trip to Ueda because it was so good after drinking it at an izakaya 😀.
I'm looking forward to drinking it next time 😇
Good evening, Yasube!
I see you got it on your trip to Ueda: ❗️ jealous😳
I've been hearing from all sides that Yamazan is a great sake 🍶, so I'm going to check out Yasubeyesan's review and see what it's really worth 🤗.
The second drink of the day is Yamasan.
Compared to Shinshu Kamerei, is it thicker and heavier?
It washes away the sultriness of garlic
And it is a cup that refreshes you.
It was a bottle that made me feel good after getting drunk.
It was a bottle.
thanks Yakitori Banchou Ueda Eki-naka (Ueda, Shinshu)
The waiter was very nice and very friendly,
Thanks a lot 😊.
Good morning, Bunzu-san 😃.
Touring around Shinshu with your son! I like it....
I hope you will get Shinshu Kamerei at Okazaki-san and have a glass of Shinshu sake at Yakitori in the station 🤗.
Comparing to the 山惠錦 version, its namazake feel is less, still fruity and fresh though. I think it is a bit bitter in the end with more alocoholic feel. I would like the another version better.
