Purchased on a trip to Nachikatsuura. With "Yamahai" in the name, I imagined a rich taste, but it's more like a light sweet taste that's easy to drink. It's the perfect sake to go with thick tuna sashimi made with geta no tsuki.
It's solid, but it's not quirky and goes well with both fish and meat.
It's also great when paired with strong flavored dishes.
Dishes we paired it with
Sashimi of skipjack tuna with ginger and soy sauce
Braised baby flounder
Braised Iberian pork
