A sample 1-goupe bottle given to me by a local liquor store
The first Yamazaki brew after the son's return to the brewery.
A modern green apple muscat type of sake.
Slight carbonation bitterness
Light sweetness and minerality
Clear and refreshing aftertaste
Somewhat Morishima-like
I've forgotten what the previous Yamazaki brew tasted like, but I'll enjoy the taste of the Yamazaki brew from now on!
8/10
Sake from Aichi since we are in Nagoya.
It is made with Yumesansui.
It was cloudy and tangy, with a surprisingly dry taste.
I was quite surprised by the hard drinking taste, but it was delicious.
The bitterness and lingering aftertaste in the second half were also nice.
I went to the Sonoh Kuramoto New Year Sake Festival. We enjoyed many tastings including a light nigori of Yume-Ginko DREAM. It has a perfect balance of sweetness and chirichiri-ness that is typical of Yume-Ginko.
