This is the third consecutive Yobitomo. This is the last one. The last one, 18 years old, and the last one, 14 years old, were both brewed after I became an adult, but this one, 04 years old, was brewed when I was in high school. I took a sip while reminiscing about my high school days...it was too hard. I actually opened it a few days ago, but forgot to check in. Memories of my high school days (club activities were tough. I was in the rugby club. I still have a busted ear thanks to it). However, when I drank it again today after a little while, I felt it was quite mellow. When I remember the hard days now...no, it was still hard...lol Well, it's definitely a good memory. Now, back to the sake, I tried to combine it with umeboshi (pickled plums) as recommended by the liquor store owner, but it's not at the level where you can do anything with umeboshi. It seems to be too much sake for me now. It's the kind of sake I'd like to try again after a few years.

I bought this with a recent call friend. Today's is a 2014 while the last one was a 2018. The color is a little darker and the old sake feeling is stronger. But as always, the clarity and sharpness stand out! If you drink it after eating pickled plums as recommended by the owner, the old sake feeling and the strong sweetness will give you a kind of caramel feeling. It is an excellent sake to drink during meals, or to enjoy the taste of sake with pickled plums and pickles. I think it's a very good sake. However, it is a little hard on my pocket. (lol)

I bought it the other day on my way home from skiing because I liked the old sake feeling of Tenmei. It doesn't have much of an old sake feel because it was made in May 2018. What I feel more than anything is the great clarity and sharpness. I think it goes well with any meal. The owner of the sake shop told me to enjoy it with umeboshi, so I tried it with umeboshi and I could feel the sweetness strongly.

#Asahiyama Sake Brewery It's a rare sake. His father served it to us at his favorite sushi restaurant as an engagement gift. A maniacal drink, he said. Fruity and mildly smooth taste was the best.
