Yamazan, Yamadanishiki was opened 🎉. The last Yamae Nishiki light nigori🩷 we received was delicious, so when we found this Yamada Nishiki🧡 we immediately bought it💸. I was looking forward to opening a bottle of Yamada Nishiki as well, because you can't go wrong with Yamada Nishiki with these specs, and I've realized just how high the level of Yamasan is just by drinking it last time 😆. So let's have it right away 🥂. The aroma is slightly sweet. In the mouth, you can feel the sweetness of the beautiful Yamada Nishiki rice, no gasiness, and the acidity swells up in the second half! There is no sharpness, and when the acidity passes in the back of the mouth, it leaves a lingering aftertaste that is a combination of sweetness and astringency. Wow...what elegance 🤤! Totally different from the previous light nigori🩷! It's less sweet, less fruity, more like it's playing with the delicate taste of Yamadanishiki rice. There is nothing sharp at all about the beautiful rice flavor, and it is very elegant 🥰. The acidity in the second half has an impact, but the balance is superb 🧡. This is a great bottle for a food sake that complements a meal. ☝️ Personally, I would have liked a little more sweetness 😅I think the sourness in the second half is orange 🧡 from the label, but the astringency at the end makes me think it's bitter orange 🍊... 💧. Yamadanishiki🧡 was good, but I like light nigori🩷 🏅.

Good morning, HinaHanaMama-san! You went for Yamada-Nishiki following Yamasan Light Nigori ⤴️ It's a well-balanced sake suitable for a mealtime drink 🎵. I've become a big fan of Yamazan with Aizan, so I'd like to try more 🤗.

Hi HinaHanaMama ^_^. Personally, I'm a no-marker and didn't buy it during my previous trip to Nagano 😢. After reading your review, I'm tempted to drink it ⤴️ I may go to Nagano this month and I'd like to bring some home when I get there😊.

Hi HinaHanaMama 😃 I drank the same one before and after, but I too preferred Yamae Nishiki over Yamada Nishiki: 🙂‍↕️ As I mentioned in my CI, I thought Nagano sake rice might be better at it!

Hi, HinaHanaMama 🌛. I've been seeing a lot of reviews of "Yamazan" lately, including from others, so I went out of my way to stock up, but they had it in stock, but for some reason I came back without buying it 🤣I have to go stock up again 😅.

I can't stop loving Yamasan: ‼️ This time, I can't help but buy it when it's Yamada Nishiki, the king of sake rice 😤. 55% polished Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, 15% alcohol by volume. I removed the plastic cover and opened the crown. The sound of opening the bottle is f the push-shoo ♫ Microbubbles at the bottom of the glass 🫧. The upper aroma is citrusy, but but it also has a twangy sensation. When you drink it, First of all, it has a chilli-like acidity and lactic acidity. In the middle of it, there is a sweet aroma with a hint of koji (malted rice). Oh, but the taste is a little dry 😲. As the temperature rises, the lactic acidity increases. And there is also a bitterness. Yamada-Nishiki: I expected a gorgeous sweetness, but I was wrong😅. It was really like Yamazan with a sour taste. And this is my personal image... I think that Yamazan, right after opening the bottle, tastes better than Aizan and Yamada Nishiki from Hyogo, Hitokochiki, Kinmon Nishiki and Yamae Nishiki from Nagano. On the other hand, the other day, Aizan turned out to be better after the second day... I expect Yamada-Nishiki to be better after the second day. ‼️

We had the first Yamasan. It is Hitogokochi Junmai Ginjyo Usunigori. Following Shinshu Kamerei, this sake is from Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture. Like Ginkame, there was only one bottle left in the refrigerator of a liquor store, so I bought it together with Ginkame. At that time, there was another bottle each of Yamasan Yamae-Nishiki Usu-Nigori, San-do no Kako Shi-no-Kozo, and Yamada-Nishiki Go-no-Kozo in the fridge. I couldn't believe my eyes when I found them because they were all sold out at every liquor store at that point. It might have been a kind of cancellation of reservation or release of reserve stock. I wanted to buy all of them because I had been interested in all of them but had missed the timing, but due to the capacity of my refrigerator, I gave up on Yamasan Yamae Nishiki and gratefully bought four bottles. The first Yamasan was a delicious sake that lived up to the rumors. It showed a lot of energy from the moment the bottle was opened, and the mouthfeel was crisp and gassy. It has a fresh and juicy peachy flavor, with a graininess of rice that only nigori sake can have, and finishes with a sharp bitterness. I like light nigori sakes to begin with, but this one is right in the middle of my favorites. This is another sake that I found troubling.

It's been a while since I drank Yamazan, I bought a bottle of Yamadanishiki because I've never had it before. The first sip was a nice splash! Sweet and sour, but the acidity is weak. Overall, it's gentle. A little citrusy, maybe. A little bit of citrus? It's still delicious 😋. The difference between this and another Yamazan I had before is..., I don't really remember 😝😝😝.

Good day! My favorite Giants held games in Toyama and Kanazawa as part of the Hokuriku Series🌠. I wanted to go to Kanazawa, but I couldn't get a ticket, so I went to Toyama yesterday 🥰. Unfortunately, we lost, but it was fun to watch the game there for the first time in a while 😎. So today I'll be watching the game at home, with Yamasan as my companion 😎. It's Yamada Nishiki ☘️ It has a well-balanced taste typical of Yamazan and is easy to drink 😎♥️ It's a good night to drink after winning the game 🤣.

Good morning, Jun-san! I didn't know it was the Hokuriku series 😲It's easy to switch between Kanazawa and Toyama because they're close to each other 😄. I went to stock up on "Yamazan" because I've been wanting to drink it for a while, but I was so distracted by other brands that I didn't buy it.

This is the first time I have had Yamada Nishiki from Yamazan. The aroma is more acidic, muscat, and rice. A little more classical than usual. When you drink it, you get a fresh, woody aroma of muscat on the nose, followed by a light sweetness and a gentle umami flavor. When paired with food, the full-bodied acidity is more perceptible and good! The next day, it has an apple-like acidity and richness. On the first day, I thought it was not so much like Yamazan, but I like this mild acidity. On the third day, the aroma is more citrusy and sour. No chili when you drink it. The taste is fruity but calm, like muscatel, citrus, and mild apple. The richness spreads slowly and the acidity tightens up at the end, and there is a slight alcohol sensation down the throat. It is delicious on its own, but you can enjoy it even more when paired with a meal.

Delicious ❗ My personal impression, It has a gaseous feeling and a little dry, but it is easy to drink. It seems juicy rather than fruity. Easy to drink I drank more than usual I've been curious about it for a while, and this is one of the sakes I've wanted to try! I bought it while talking with the shopkeeper. If I come across another Yamazan, I'll buy it right away!

9 points (Wife: 8.5 points) Rice:100% Aizan, grown in Hyogo Prefecture Rice polishing ratio: 45 Alcohol content: 16 Buyer: Jizake No Sake Shop "Fun Sake Shop When opened Pon Moderate gassiness Slightly sweet grape-like top note The same fruity aroma as on the top, fluffy sweetness and rice flavor spreads with moderate acidity and slight gassiness, and finishes with a slight bitterness and lingering rice flavor. The sweetness and aroma are moderate, and the gasiness gives the impression of being a little hard, but it is easy to match with meals and is delicious on its own as well. It went well with grilled herring and roast beef salad.

Good evening 😃 Nagano sake (4) is Yamazan It's very popular at Sake-no-wa...I can only hope for more...lol Oh... this one... tastes a little different Dry on the palate Umami and sweetness soon join together It mixes well on the tongue It gives you a lot of different tastes and then it's over 😆. It is a little different from the Yamasan I've had so far. I like the balance of this taste 👍 Nagano sake series 4 bottles: ❗️ Thank you very much 😊.

まさし
Satisfaction: ★★★★☆ I tried this wine because it was recommended by Sake-no-Wa. It has a light aroma of fruits as soon as the bottle is opened. It has a strong effervescence that makes bubbles stick to the boar's mouth. When you put it in your mouth, the mild aroma is followed by a strong sweet taste, and then it wears off gently. Anyway, it is sweet. It is a sticky sweetness, like syrup or honey. There is a slight sawdust smell, but it is not bothersome. It can be used as a food wine, but the sweetness may be too strong when paired with rice. It may be a bit unique in its worldview.
