The love for Yamasan never stops: ‼️
Just when you thought new products seemed to have stopped since the sparkling, two 2 year olds from the first vintage (Hatsuyuki <Hitogochi no Jungin> and Yamasumi <Yamae Nishiki no Jun Dai>) have come out 😳.
But it seems there were only a few bottles and I was only able to buy one of the Yamae Nishiki Jundai 😭.
Yamae Nishiki 50% polished, 15% alcohol by volume
I took off the plastic cover and thought I'd replace the stopper...,
Wow!
With a popping sound of "ff", the stopper came off by itself.
the plastic cover and the bottle stopper came off by itself!
Is this really fire-aged for 2 years? 😳
The top aroma is rummy to green apple 🍏.
When poured into a glass, it's hard to believe that it's fire-aged for 2 years 🫧.
When you drink it.
Mouthfeel is sweet and full.
Wonderfully rich for a Yamazan😍.
And yet it's also very carbonated
It has a fresh sourness
The bitterness you feel at the same time is good ❗️ really good ‼️
Don't get me wrong.
In ymdaz's opinion, it's the strongest of Yamazan's ‼️
I should have bought another bottle of this one‼️
Yamazan is one of my favorite sakes, but it is hard to find... Recently, I checked the Instagram of a liquor store I often visit and found information that it would be in stock on Friday! Since I can only go there on Saturdays and Sundays, I visited the store half expecting and half giving up, but luckily there was only one bottle left. I asked the clerk about the aroma of old sake, which I am not very fond of, and was pleasantly surprised to hear that there was no such aroma. I bought it immediately!
When I opened it, there was a rather loud popping sound! Fortunately, it didn't blow out, but there was still quite a bit of fizziness. It is a light cloudy sake.
The aroma is quite subdued with a sweet fruity aroma like red meat melon and ripe apples, and there is also a yogurt-like fermentation. I didn't feel the old sake-like quality I was worried about 😁I felt a strong, tangy carbonation, sweetness and umami first, and later a slightly stronger acidity and a little bit of bitter bitterness. It was a delicious sake with complexity and depth. It was a treat 😊.
I drank a little too much during the Obon holidays 😚 so I took the rest of the week off 😑.
The first thing I'm going to have on the weekend is...! It's been a long time since I've had a ✨great Junmai Daiginjo that's been polished up a lot ✨and the price is also expensive, which I usually don't buy 💴 I've been putting it away for a long time because it was too good to be true 😴.
We also took a bath to polish it up and make it smooth and smooth ✨.
The aroma was elegant and fruity 😌.
I took a sip and wow 😀 this is so smooth and fruity 🫢 it just rushes into my mouth 🌊! Yes, this is delicious 😋😋.
The sweetness starts to overpower the sweetness as you drink and eat 😅But by the time I felt that way, I had almost finished the four-pack, so it passed the international J&N standards (which I haven't used in a long time 😆).
By the way, the GU near my house closed down a while ago 😢I wasn't shopping there 😅I'm really curious to see what will be built after that 🧐.
We don't have any information yet, but we both want to go to Izakaya or Hidakaya (‼️).
In short, we'd like to have a place where we can walk around and have a quick drink 🤗.
But it's on a busy road with two lanes on each side of the road, so it's probably impossible to find a bar 🚙😓.
I don't mind if it's a liquor store where you can have a corner 😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃!
Yamasan and Junmai Daiginjo, you have a good sake ✨.
I'd love to welcome you to the restaurant as I've never had the chance to meet you.
It's exciting to see what will be built after the restaurant closes 😙.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I can't stand the timing of opening a full bottle of drunken alcohol after a period of well-deserved rest 🥰.
It's also an important routine to cleanse yourself carefully ✨️
I can't wait to see what will be in the empty store: ✨️
Good evening Jay & Nobby😊.
I've had the Yamadanishiki from Yamazan, but I've never had the Sanwari Kubu, it's definitely delicious 😋.
I'm so defeated and slippery in the bath! That's awesome 🤣 polish it up to 30% 90% 🥳.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 😃!
The Yamazan Junmai Daiginjo after a day off from drinking looks so good😍It would be great if there could be a convenient place to drink near our house 😍.
Looking forward to hearing more about what you can do👍.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
After a day off from drinking, the Yamasan Junmai Daiginjo sounds like it's going to sink in 😋.
I'd love to try your sake someday 🤤!
What is the site of the old store 🤗?
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
I think Yamazan-san will be a little sweet for you two, but for our family it's a don't miss😇.
We're thinking of making it our featured sake for next season 😀.
But I haven't seen Yamadanishiki from Yamazan yet 🤣.
Good morning, Master J&N 😃.
I also like Yamazan because I can buy it in my hometown, but the price is too expensive for me to afford.
But after reading this comment, I'm quite impressed 🤤.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
This is a nice Yamazan 🤩 and it looks like Yamadanishiki would be even more sharp 😍.
I wish I had a good izakaya near my house 🏮! There are no izakaya with sake near my house 😭
Hi Jay & Nobby😃.
Yamada 39😳I would like to start with this one as there are many types of Yamasan and compare them 🤗.
I had a dream 💭 that the site of GU will be the Tochigi Sake Love Love Center 💖 which will be built with a bang ❗️ 😆.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🌞I see you cleared the international J&N standards even though they are exclusively rumored to be strict 🤤This is one I would like to try but it is a bit expensive 💸I hope for a well-stocked liquor store at the site🙇.
Hi, soumacho 😃
Yes, I'm very happy to hear that you are enjoying your new home! It's been a long time since I've had a well-polished ✨premium pure Dai Dai 🤗a substitute that rarely comes to my house 😅I'm J&N who would appreciate 🍺drinking-related🍶 more than clothing👕!
Hi Gyve 😃
We usually take weekdays off 😑, but we drank every day during Obon 😅.
It's been a while since we've opened the show with a good guy and polished ourselves up too 😆 Hopefully we'll get a good restaurant in!
Hello ichiro18 😃
Yes, I'm Iichiro18! I went for a good one because it's the opening of the holiday 🤗.
Yes, I would like to educate you after the opening of the izakaya 🏮 even if there is no sake 🍶 at ‼️ worst 🍶 😆.
Hi ma-ki 😃
I had a rare Obon vacation where I drank without a rest day😅I was quiet for the rest of the week 😌This is one I can recommend to everyone!
I'd be happy to do something sake-like for you 😊.
Hi Yasbay 😃
We don't really know what we're getting ourselves into 😅Some of the sweet ones work and some don't 🤔.
We, Yamasan-san, are generally good 😋, and the green Yamasan of Yamae Nishiki was especially to our liking 🤗.
Hi Hissan 😃
Oh~! It's great that you can buy it locally 🤗
It's expensive 😅 but I think it's one of the best for sweet and tasty lovers 😋 Please go there when you have a good thing 👋.
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
Yes, I'm a fan of the green labels! I went for the good ones 🤗 but the green label might be my favorite 😋.
That's it! I'd be happy to have a izakaya 🏮😊I'd probably work there if I could 😆.
Hi Nao888😃
I know it's an international standard, but J&N's sensibilities are a bit blurry 😅 sometimes strict, sometimes lenient 😄.
If you pick up a 500 yen coin on the side of the road, try it 😆 You're more than welcome to visit any liquor store where you can corner shop 🥹.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good evening...
Yamazan is an expensive sake buy! I know 👍
You have to consult with your wallet though😅.
Whenever a large piece of land becomes available, I always wonder if a sports park will be built, but it's mostly condominiums💦.
Jay & Nobby Good evening 😊Yamasan, isn't it? That's a little expensive one too😊It's bound to be delicious! I have an image that Nagano sake is a bit sweet, but I'm glad it meets your standards! We can't wait to see what you can make next.
Good morning, kozo 😃.
It might be OK if you buy it with affordable dry sake! And it's Yamazan 😄
⚽️ sports park ⛲️ is a quintessential Kozo-san idea! It's a small place but all I could think about was the sake 😆.
Good morning, Sashu 😃.
This is the first time I drank this much polished Yamasan 😋 It was delicious and not that sweet 🤗.
Hope you can make something good 🤔.
Yamadanishiki (Hyogo), Polishing ratio 55
Yum! It is juicy and sweet! When cooled, the fruity acidity takes effect, and the mellow, lingering taste is gorgeous! This is my favorite recent one.
Thank you for participating in the brewery opening 🙏1️⃣ 8️⃣
Just as the place was heating up, there was a ping pong and the sake was delivered😇.
Great timing 🤣.
I've been requesting delivery of Shinshu secret hanpukai sake on the last Sunday of every month and this was the day it was scheduled to arrive 😀.
This month's hanpukai sake is Yamae Nishiki by Yamazan😇
Of course the specs are undisclosed, but I'm happy to say that everyone was pleased with the taste😇
Good evening, Yasbaye 😃.
I see the hanpukai also supported the brewery opening 😆.
I'm sure it must have been a great occasion for you to serve the freshly arrived products right away 🤗.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
The delivery was made at the most exciting time as the event was coming to an end, so everyone was interested in the contents of the package 😀.
We had a little more room in the warehouse, but now we have more 🤣.
Good - this, this, and this 🥰.
I had avoided Yamazan because of its name, but when I bought it at Mashidaya, I was disappointed in a good way because I did not expect it. I had underestimated Shinshu sake. If I don't reflect on this, Yamazan will be in the Hall of Fame from now on 🤗.
Good morning, Drunken Giraffe 😃.
Kochira Rich Yamasan! I got it at Mashidaya as well and had it last month 😋 This is one of the best licks you can get 😆.
Jay & Nobby, good evening, thank you for your comments. Yamazan is delicious 🤗I would like to drink different Yamazan, there are too many good sake and I drink too much these days 🤣.
At the #ShinshuUeda Sake Festival in Yotsuya Arakicho. President Ogiwara was there🎵It looks like we will be able to supply over 400 koku this season, which is good to hear that we can keep up with the popularity of the sake!
Alcohol content: 15
Kinmon Nishiki
Rice polishing ratio: 55
This is the first sake made from Kinmon-nishiki rice.
It has a grape-like aroma.
It has a good balance of rice-derived umami, sweetness, and acidity. It is a delicious sake with a robust flavor.
Good morning, Taro Hachiman!
Yamazan's Aizan is delicious 😋.
My first Yamazan was Aizan and I really liked it 🎵.
Drinking while talking - it's a fun time to drink, isn't it 🤗.
Yamazan
Sanke Nishiki Unfiltered Unrefined Sake
Open the bottle and enjoy!
A gorgeous yet refreshing apple aroma.
Exciting 😍!
Sweet and juicy. Fresh and well balanced with umami.
A lingering aftertaste that lingers on slowly.
First time for Yamazan and it's delicious!
Yasubeyesu family storage opening party⑳⑳
It's been a week since then.
I'm still lingering 🤣and I'm still posting 🤣.
I took the photos of Yamasan first but I posted them in the opposite order of the main gold 😅.
He opened the second bottle of sake from the hanpukai!
Yamazan's limited edition sake!
This one also has an undisclosed rice polishing ratio 🤔.
It is fire-aged but fresh and light!
The sweetness and umami are there but not too sweet. It is a well-balanced and versatile sake that can be used by itself or with food!
I only see it at liquor stores in Kyoto, but for some reason I don't buy it there 💦.
There are so many varieties that I don't know what to buy 😅.
