Clear watery feeling. Slight carbonation and holo-bitter taste from the I felt there was some sweetness, but I couldn't detect any flavor.
It is not my favorite, but I think it is easy to drink.
680 yen/glass cup (less than 100ml?)
Around the end of the year, new sake is released at once, and it's a fun time to choose from a refrigerator full of sake!
This time I picked up my first Garakudai, a lightly cloudy sake.
I had heard that it was rather strong when opened, so I was a bit wary, but a few days had passed since I bought it and it had been chilled for a while, so I opened the bottle without any problems.
It has a modest top shelf aroma, dry sweetness, a slight bitterness, and a lingering sourness, which is typical of Garakudai.
In the mouth, there is some gasiness, but it is not as strong as it seems when the bottle is opened and may almost disappear by the next day.
As the temperature rises, the aroma becomes more pronounced and the lactic acid taste is more easily perceived.
720, about 2200 yen
It has a slightly dark sweetness and a full-bodied flavor that is typical of Garakudai. The acidity is also high and fragrant. Sense of soda
The alcohol comes out through the nose while the acidity is quite high and the sweetness is quite high.
The caramel flavor and bitterness comes after the high acidity.
The bitter and bitter taste comes at the end, but the aftertaste is not that long.
There is a roughness on the tongue.
This is the first time I drank this one, which was sold at the end of the year. It's so good, but 😳.
Surprisingly my first brewery ✨Tenryohai Shuzo's Garakudai 🍶It's Masayo in the Sakegawa area 😆I wasn't able to bring it to the bar because it's new pale yellow 🥹I was excited that it's a fresh sake and it's good for me ☺️
The bottle was opened with a pop and the 💨cork was much harder than I expected 😂I don't really feel the top notes but it's mildly fruity 👀I'd say it's apple 🍎The taste is refreshing 😋The citrus acidity and soft umami come and go 🤤The low alcohol content helps too, it's light and refreshing and you can just gobble it up. The low alcohol content helps to make it light and refreshing 💕I was able to finish it in no time because I could keep drinking it lazily in a good way 🤣.
Good evening, Nao888!
Congratulations on your first Masayo 🎉!
My first Masayosan was also a Hiiri but it was a Hiyori 🎵.
I know what you mean - it's really easy to drink, so you can just keep on drinking and drinking 😋.
Good morning, Nao888 😀
Congratulations on your first Masayo-sama ㊗️🎊🎉!
I've only had Masayo san in light nigorigo and summer low alcohol, but I don't get it often because of the image of light alcohol 🤣.
Good morning, Nao888😃!
Congratulations on your first Masayo 🎊.
I feel that you are pursuing a modern style while there are many light and dry sake in Niigata, but I'm not really familiar with Masayo 😅I wonder what it is 🤔.
Good morning, ma-ki-🌞I see it was your debut in the Hiwa fireplace ✨️ I wonder if the feeling of cutting down on a lot of things makes it slooooow 🤔I finished it even though I'm not in the middle of it 😅.
Good morning, Yasubeyesan 🌞I wanted to drink it because it was highly recommended by a certain liquor store owner 😆It certainly has a light and beautiful flavor 🍶I personally prefer a stronger flavor, but it was a good choice as a food sake 😋.
Good morning, HinaHanaMama 🌞It wasn't exactly in the middle, but it was sweet and light modern ✨I think the salt treatment at the warehouse might have affected it 😅I guess I'll have to wait until I'm a little older to bring it back next time 🤣.
Good evening Nao888!
New Tanrei✨As the name suggests, I think of it as a modern dry sake that is sweet but also crisp and sharp 🤔.
I'm planning to drink it this year because of the nice nigori sake label that comes out around the beginning of spring 😊.
Good evening, Mr. Chesta 🌛It's sweet and sharp, so it goes well with food 🍶Nigori sake comes out in early spring 🤤I'd love to gather information and drink this one now 🥰Thank you for the useful information ✨.
Good morning, Nao888 😃!
Good morning, Nao888! Congratulations on your first Masayo ㊗️ 🎉A low alcohol, easy drinking day is perfect for your debut 🤗Please enjoy a little bit of Masayo world 👋
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 🌞I went to my first Masayo 🍶Katakana is correct 🤣 Hiyori was the perfect debut sake 😋 I will enjoy New Awaii a little more 👧.

We opened a bottle of Zuika, a gift from Garakudai, who was shocked by its clear, uncluttered taste.
At first sip, I was surprised by the strong chirichiri-ness on the tip of my tongue, but the fleetingness that quickly disappeared reminded me of Zuika (snowflakes).
Like the other Gagakuyo, it is as if only the most beautiful parts were carefully collected and grained to form a shape.
Delicate and refined taste.
It was very delicious.
I recommend drinking it well chilled.
Garakudai Uta Shiro Yukishita Yukiwatari Light Nigori Nama Shu
Rating 4.4

Yukiwatari" is a Yamato word meaning that plants and animals are preparing for the coming of spring even under a pile of snow.
After the concert (3)
A carefully selected drink from the three recommended by the staff 👏.
Chilli tongue and slightly carbonated.
Sweet and sour deliciousness! Delicious!
I had two onigiri for entrée....and some salmon and cod roe, but I didn't get a picture,...,
Rice on rice, rice on rice...a tour de force. No wonder I was so hungry 😋.
Good morning, Mia 😃.
After venting 💦 at a live concert, you might be right to wash down rice with rice 🤗Masayo can go alone or in a meal, so it's just right 😋.
At Sumiyoshi Sake Shop in Hakata
I bought it because it was recommended in a video.
I was impressed by the banana aroma when I smelled it at a nearby liquor store,
But this one was not like that, it was beautiful and tasty!
It was a good sake.
I learned a lot.
I had the impression that it was Niigata sharp and clean, but without acidity? It was a new sensation 😊.
