The taste is rich but light on the palate. It is even softer when heated. It has a moderate aromatic richness and a little bit of spiciness. It has a good balance and can be served with a wide range of food. It is a limited edition sake, but it has a standard taste. Mr. Ota lives in Kamakura. I was there just two and a half months ago, so I missed it a lot! Once again, Kamakura is a wonderful place! The restaurants that were introduced to us were all very unique and the food looked delicious!

I bought this Wakaba unfiltered sake in the summer and felt it was still young, so I let it sleep in the closet. It has a good balance of flavor, with the punch of unfiltered sake, but without losing the simple country feel of Wakaba. I put it in the closet again, but it was good enough. It's not Wakaba, but Higuchi Shinyo, a triple axel that is anything but rustic! The ROC is still very difficult, but I hope the Japanese will do their best to get on the podium!

(The regular product has a ripeness, but this one is relatively refined. It looks light but has a solid core, and there is still a sense of ripeness in the back. It shows its full potential when heated. The richness comes out well. When it cools down, the sweetness comes out well. I bought it from a sake brewer, and when I asked for sakekasu, they gave me a lot of it! Maybe it's because I buy from the sake brewer sometimes. It is very delicious when it is baked!

Moderately mature and delicious. It's a delightful gem with the balance of flavor I want more than ever! It goes straight to perfection when heated. The aroma as it warms up is also mature. The aroma when it warms up is also mature. Mr. Ota is a Kagoshima rerun! This year I also flirted with sweetpotato, but Mr. Ota also uses shochu in Kyushu! Dried cod roe seemed to go well with the sweet potato!

The sake rice is "Hatsushimo" and "Hidahomare" produced locally in Mizunami. You can smell the aroma of rice and feel the alcohol. Personally, I would suggest heating it up.

Slightly effervescent and lightly pon The orikori was fairly subdued. Refreshing flavor from the clean mouthfeel. The aroma is more fermented when heated. The aroma makes you happy! The taste is also plump. It's great both cold for its freshness and tightness, and warmed for its deliciousness and mildness. Baked sakekasu (sake lees) goes so well with this sake! I've tried it with other sakes, but they go together in a totally different way! I wonder if sakekasu goes best with the sake of the sake brewer. Is there a case that another sake brewer's sake goes better with sakekasu? The only drawback is the price! It costs about 2,700 yen! I can buy it these days because the horse gives me money, which is very rare for me, but I usually don't have the guts to buy it!

fresh verdure A twangy aroma of alcohol. Sourness and numbness after what at first seems tasteless on the tongue. It also has a feeling like burnt sugar. As the brewer says, it is astringent when heated. When I visited the Kozaemon brewery the other day, I bought this sake at this brewery, which is about a 2-minute walk from the brewery. A black cat walked up to greet me. But then he dashed outside.

It's a fall wine type with a sense of maturity. ‼️ I think it tastes better slightly heated 😋.

It is a small sake brewery in Ruisuiwa City. You can taste the umami flavor typical of junmai sake. You can feel the elegant aftertaste.

At room temperature. Mellow aroma with a sense of maturity. It has a clear and soft texture, and the aroma passes through the nose nicely. The aroma is a little sweet potato-like. It has a slightly light umami, a firm acidity, and a hint of astringency. It is more elegant than the image on the label. Moderate Taste level 3.5/5

Pure Mizunami sake made from 85% Hatsushimo and 15% Hidahomare harvested in Mizunami, Gifu. Compared to the Gohyakumangoku sake we had last time, this sake is more robust. Delicious!
